It's been too long since I've featured these two....

...stunning, handsome, talented, and attractive guys...

Most their work is better than the original


Especially that one...



I am so glad there are semi-obscure (thanks Allen for introducing me to these guys), super talented people out there to fix what the overrated, under skilled artists create. I hope it continues in like fashion.



Seriously, people like these guys make music sound like what it should. They take a good idea, bad production (Mirrors) and turn it into the music that it wanted to be before JT turned it all wrong. They release the true product and I am thankful for them.


Be thankful people!

Shut the world out...Ignore the world within?

Do you ever just feel like you have to shut the world around you out? Like the things that are happening around you are too much to handle and they might destroy you under their weight?

*LIKE THIS*  (<--those people probably are from Wyoming...)

Well that happened tonight. I just couldn't take it and it was too much. So I gathered myself up, put my headphones in, turned on the best pandora station ever, and went on a walk.

I think I couldn't handle the world inside myself either. I was raging mad. Over a stupid thing that I REALLY shouldn't waste my time on. But still. The thoughts and feelings were seriously pissing me off. I needed to ignore them.

So I shut the world out, ignored the world within and just walked. Man it was wonderful. I just listened and sang to my Mumford and Muse and Phillips, while escaping the terrors of the world at the moment. I strolled like a boss through campus, leaving a trail of problems with the steps I took.

I walked to the library to return my movies, then to the tute to play the piano. It was so wonderful. I just released it all and healed those bummers. Those bummers be gone!!

For now.

I'll probably be angry over that thing again in like 24 minutes, but who cares!?

I just love the power of music and nature. It really is the panacea of the world. That and baseball. But really, any issues I am having can be solved by putting my headphones in and walking (or I could take my lovely Jasper now). That fixes it.

It is even better now as well. All the students have gone home for the summer. It is even quieter and calmer and more desolate than normal. Peaceful. I loved it.

On a brighter note, I feel such great things coming from this summer. This summer may change my life. I think it will. I think I will let it. This summer will leave me a better person than it found me. I really think it will.

Let the summer come. Let it bring with it all the wonder and joy and if I must fail this summer I hope I fail gloriously.

I await summer with open arms, an open mind, and an open heart.

It is going to be good

I love Greyson Chance

I LOVE GREYSON CHANCE.

I like the way his voice sounds....probs cause hes prepubescent. Back off, he's great.





I didn't actually want to watch those since I'd probably change my mind about him...but just listen to him...haha

Since the world needs more annoying pop stars....

But he actually seems like he's got talent...and the fact that people figured out who he was when he was 12 and he is now 15 and I am only just being exposed to him seems to be a good omen.....so I won't judge him just yet

Greyson Chance at 12 years old in 2010 (this was how he was discovered...oh, Youtube, you wonderful invention)

This is him on the Ellen Show in 2011

And this is some new stuff from Greyson




Not too shabby...

Miserably Failed March

Title says it all. I did not do well with the blogging in March. It was a busy busy month. But to make up for it, let me blow your mind with this:


You're welcome!

Call Your Girlfriend

My friend Brittany and I are learning this:



We so far are not good.

It is a hard thing to play (we use plastic cups) butter dishes and sing at the same time...Don't believe me? Try it.

If/When we ever get good enough to do it I will put a video of it on here.
THAT is a PROMISE.

Here and There

"Arthur Henry King has said, 'Love is not just an ecstasy, not just an intense feeling. It is a driving force. It is something that carries us through our life of joyful duty'".
- Dallin H. Oaks, Powerful Ideas - October 1995

I like that a lot.


Do you ever have a song that automatically energizes and makes you go crazy? Well right now that song for me is:


It kills me. So I was doing homework right near here...
Library Annex image
...in the basement of this building...

 

...yesterday while listening to thebestpandorastationever...

AND Anyway Radioactive comes on and I have the irrepressible urge to cartwheel and go crazy. SO I DID (if it is irrepressible you can't not do it) right there in the basement of PS. For all those nerds doing homework at 5:00 on a Friday evening (my friend Pace included....) to see!

HA! IT WAS GREAT. So then I was on a music high for the rest of the night.

 I jumped and skipped and sang and total body jammed the walk home with Cassie. IT WAS SO GREAT. SO FREEING. People where watching and I just jammed all the more intensely. Then we went to the basketball game here...
.

...and on the walk I didn't walk. NAY! I RAN AND FLAILED...

I looked a lot like this....



...And then when I got to the crosswalk I cartwheeled across. I turned that bad boy into a cross-cartwheel. AWWW YEAHHHH

WHEWWWW THAT was such a grand adventure I had. And it all started with Imagine Dragons.

I think I am keeping that promise to enjoy life more fully!

LIFE IS GOOD FOLKS!
HAPPY SATURDAY TO YOU

OVER and OUT

Patience

Continue in Patience

BAAH READ THAT. Read it. Now. Stop reading this and read that up there. Click it.



Did you do it???

k well now you can read this.

HOLY TOLEDO. THAT IS MY LIFE RIGHT NOW. SO MUCH.

WAITING IS HARD. BUT with God all things are possible. Even waiting for what seems like endless amounts of time.

I know what will eventually come will come but this whole "patient persistence" and enduring is tough stuff.



For now I am just....
