Welcome to the pond

Here's the meme of the day, the Midweek Music Meme:

What song was your graduating class song, and why did you like it or hate it?

My high school didn't actually have a class song, and if it did I wasn't aware of it. My middle school, however, used Boyz II Men's "It's So Hard To Say Goodbye" as the graduating class song. I was almost going to say "End Of The Road" but I checked and it was indeed "It's So Hard . . " I knew it was one of those slow Boyz II Men hits lol. I didn't really hate it or love it, but I didn't mind it as the class song. When I hear it I'm reminded of those last days of middle school, so I suppose it was an effective class song after all.

In other news today, we're in the third day of the bus drivers' strike in Lane County. They struck on Monday, and now there is virtually no bus service. This doesn't affect me as much as other people, but there are some who are suffering very badly. Students in local colleges find themselves scrambling to find a way to campus during the last two weeks of the term. Next week is finals week, and the caca will hit the fan if these people can't get to their classes to take their exams! Lane Community College in particular is very out of the way for most people, so those students are probably some of the most inconvenienced. I really hope the transit district management and the union can work something out soon, so that this essential service can be provided to those who need it.

Today I'm in a mood to listen to bluegrass and cajun music. I'm currently listening to one of The Chieftains' bluegrass albums on my computer, and quite enjoying it. Oddly enough, this mood came about from me seeing someone playing a banjo on TV. It's funny how the smallest things can inspire me to listen to a particular style of music all day long.

That's all for now. Hopefully I'll have more things to talk about in the near future! Until then, have a good week y'all.
