Macaroni and plath part II

So today was an amazing day because I realized that both Sylvia Plath and the school's macaroni aren't nearly as bad as they used to be, or as bad as I thought they were. Not only did the cafeteria serve up some macaroni today that did *not* stick in the bowl like glue when turned upside down, but we read a Plath poem in class that I loveloveloved. It was called "Mirror" and contained the line "I am silver and exact". One of my favorite bands *evar*, The Hush Sound, wrote a song called "You Are the Moon" that has the line, "I will bring a mirror, so silver, so exact". Maybe coincidence but I think more likely they're Plath fans. Fantastic stuff.

Hush Sound is a great group, albeit a bit high pitched for my taste...Though I have never been able to find a good volume for that song...either it seems too loud and well painful or too soft and muffled, but that is a great connection...hmm I wonder if there is an actual relation there.

I can't imagine there wouldn't be a connection, I think that would be a bit too coincidental. I've had the same problem with the volume :-/
