Big things are going to be happening for CHAOS. I can feel it in me bonessss. We got the drama with the website figured out so we've finally got it up, and for a few hours of work, it looks really good. Ashlay-lay is amazing and within the next few weeks I already know the site is going to be ACE.

In having a heart to heart via IM with the webmistress extraordinaire, we realized that this is pretty much what we're destined to do. We can't see ourselves in any other professions(although I wouldn't mind being a chef or working for CNN lol) There's a reason for everything. There was a reason why I decided to go to UGA instead of Xavier even though Xavier gave me an awesome scholarship, and there was a reason why Ashley didn't go to the Art Institute. There was a reason why we all chose to be Journalism majors. There was a reason why we all decided to take astronomy and there was a reason why Lauren wore her "The Academy Is" shirt that one day that made me notice her. And fast forward to today and we're all BFF.

CHAOS is what we want to do with the rest of our lives. This isn't some hobby, or past time for us. We're not trying to become famous or anything, we just want CHAOS to become a reputable, intriguing, and fun magazine that is unlike anything else out there. We're not trying to be music snobs and say we know everything about the scene, because we don't. We just want people to read our view points on certain music, ideas, trends, scenes, fashion, photography, everything.

We're just 3 ladies from Georgia that have something to say, and we finally have a vehicle to do it. I can't wait for the day when we get to the point where people will be saying,

"Oh yeah, I know the CHAOS girls. I really respect their opinions and they always do great interviews with intriguing and interesting questions that I won't read in any old magazine. They're actually interested in more than who so and so is dating or whether they wear boxers or briefs. They realize that there's more to these musicians than looks and they dig deep into the music and lyrics. These are the kind of girls I want to get to know. Plus they're hella fun to hang out with" - lol

When we finally get a printed version we're going to have a huge launch party for our first issue. Maybe we could rent out Tasty World. That would be so much fun. But it would make more sense to do something in Atlanta since that's where most of the people we would want at the launch party live. It might even have to just be at my house lol. But it's going to be AMAZING either way.

Speaking of houses... were about 3 weeks from moving into La casa de CHAOS. Okay it's really an apartment, but anything is better than the dorms. Plus I'll be living with 3 of my bestest friends. I feel all grown up living in my own apartment. It's gonna be fun fun fun. I'm thinking "La casa de CHAOS" is going to be like Andy Warhol's "The Factory"...minus the drugs and booze. But there will be plenty of great parties and happenings, and artistic dealings going on.

It's gonna be hot. Trust me.

Tonight I'm listening to an Atlanta based band called Black Lips. They're a psychedelic/rock band. It pretty refreshing listening to a band like this.
