Road Trip Survival: Item #1

It's getting closer to departure for my road trip to Houston, Texas - click to see the countdown - for an eight week long internship with Teach for America. The fourteen hour trip demands certain preparations; principally, answering the question "How will I keep myself entertained for the entire trip?" So I've created the beginnings of a survival kit and I will gradually share each element as I create it.

That is, if I get around to creating it. Did I mention I have 3 days?

The first item of the Road Trip Survival Kit is... drumroll please... (anyone else getting that "Behind door number one!" feeling?)

1. Great music

I did my research found some amazing bands on Noisetrade.com (free music!)

News for the Weak by Dan Price

Think Josh Garrels meets Avett Brothers

Quill by Bison

For Bon Iver or Sufjan Stevens fans

I also have a predilection for themes. So, of course, I created a playlist which a musical tribute to each state that we will be passing through which you can listen to here.
