I know I might be really behind on this, but if you haven't heard of pandora.com, it's about time you were told! Type in your favorite songs and artists and it comes up with related songs with a custom radio station for you. You can give songs thumbs up or down and rate them to customize the station. I am currently listening to a Jason Mraz station and it has John Mayer, Jack Johnson, Matt Nathanson... my favorite male voices! Husky, clever lyrics, dreamy at times... so amazing. It's like lying in Alumni Park basking in the Malibu sun :)
Hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and will have a Happy New Year. Let the sparkling cider flow and your dreams soar! Wishing that all of your new resolutions will be new lifestyles for the better.

Starting Over
I had a habit of deleting blogs. And I was thinking about what I want to do with this radio show. I don't know. I was thinking about whether it really has a purpose and I realized that it was another snagged opportunity. Radio was easy to get involved in and it was a why-not entree that I piled onto my plate.
So why not keep it going? I know all the reasons. It's easier not to do it. The listeners are few. Do I really have something to say?
But I was stumbling around cyberspace as I always do, from something that led me to gizmos (a website revealing the latest whimsical gadgets and commentary about them) that led me to yankodesign.com (a website that compiles designs, whether actualized or not, and adds narrative explaining them) that led me to pan-dan.blogspot.com (a blog with pictures of designs, sort of like the sartorialist, but not limited to clothes), where there was a post with the following picture:
Let's assume that mistakes include any action taken that doesn't turn out quite the way you want it to. You took the action. It was a miss. It was a mistake.
Was K Squared Radio a mistake? Maybe not, if I keep morphing it from advice segments, to news, to a dose of insanity, which is what I did. It does feel very compass-less. Very insane.
So maybe it was. Maybe not.
But next semester, it will keep going. After all, I didn't buy thirty blank CD's for nothing. And as always, K Squared Radio is here for you. Whatever problems you have or advice questions, silly or serious, email to ksquaredradio@gmail.com. And remember, mistakes lead to discovery. So take a chance.
