So, amidst all of this finals studying frenzy, I’d just like to share some good news: I’M GOING TO SEE DEPECHE MODE IN CONCERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That’s right, my dear friend from Stanford and I have been planning out our strategy all week long. We both signed up for multiple e-mail alerts, only to discover the pre-sale password…after [...]
