Favorite Friday: Week of 8/5

1) Green Day - Let Yourself Go; I love this song so much and I hate that the show that the video was recorded out is three hours away and I could've gone if it wasn't a stupid secret show that they didn't announce until that day. It's a little more than a month until Uno comes out and if there are more songs on there like this then I am going to be such a happy camper.


2) The Zenon Trilogy; Disney Channel always shows DCOMS on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday at like 1am my time so I am always recording them on my DVR. I think my favorite is the second one but it's such a hard decision! I wish everyone talked with the lingo like in these movies. Btw, I had a crush MAJOR on Proto Zoa.



3) Ben Affleck; This guy just looks go good.


4) Cillian Murphy; I went to go see The Dark Knight Rises this week (which is wonderful) and it rekindled my love for this man. His eyes are so beautiful


5) Avenue; Avenue is a clothing store for plus size women and I had a job interview there for sales associate but she is passing me on to interview for part time assistant manger! I think I could make a wonderful manager and I have my fingers crossed for this!

Throwback Wednesday: Dirty Boy Band Lyrics

Have you ever gone back to listen to a song from your childhood and think, "I can't believe my parents let me listen to this as a child!" I have had that moment many times so I figured I would share a couple songs from the 90s and early 00s that illustrate my point.

Exhibit A: Backstreet Boys - If You Want It to Be Good Girl...


"If you wanna make it last gotta know just who to ask..."
"If you like it innovative better someone creative..."
"If really like it hot, want someone to hit the spot..."

Need I go on with this song? I guess music wasn't always so dirty but lets look at another example.

Exhibit B: Nsync - Digital Getdown



"I love the things you do for me so late at night, you turn me on babe..."
"Baby we can do all that we want we getting freaky deaky, we getting naughty naughty"

Perhaps Nsync created cybersex with that song who knows. 

But you know, its kind of weird knowing that some of my favorite childhood songs are really dirty and just about hot and wild sex. Eh, I can dig it.

Music Monday: TAYF10


This is happening and I couldn't be more excited. I've seen Taking Back Sunday twice already but this will be the icing on the cake. AND Bayside is going to be the best. I think this is going to be the first show I go to where I actually don't want to be in the front. I want to stand back and enjoy the show. I am hoping that they will go to Austin instead of San Antonio or Dallas but I will take whatever I can get.

If for SOME UNSPEAKABLE reason you have never listened to Tell All Your Friends- go do it! This year is the 10th anniversary of on of the best modern rock albums from the 2000s. Key tracks are Cute without the E (cut from the team) and Great Romances Of The 20th Century.

Let's try getting back into the groove of things....

I am finally back from vacation and I had a blast! Highlights include: Warped Tour for the second time this summer, NYC, relaxing on the beach, and all the shopping I did. I went with my boyfriend and his parents- they are the greatest. His mom also likes to spoil me so she bought me tons of clothes!  If I was smart, I would've photographed the clothes before I put them all up but I didn't and my closet is jammed packed right now so yeah... I'm not taking them out. I may just photograph every new outfit I wear and post them on here.

I will resume regular blog posting next week because I am completely beat.

See you guys then :)

Favorite Friday (Week of 7/9/12)

Let's get this going!


1) Tonight Alive - What Are You So Scared Of? (Acoustic)

You can pick this up exclusively on Warped Tour throughout this summer. A must for any                                          Tonight Alive fan!


2) Charmed Limited Deluxe Edition

I love this bad boy. I was able to hold mine for an hour before having to ship it back because it was all scratched up. As soon as I get my money refunded, I am going to reorder this and this time I am going to spend the extra thirty bucks for a brand new copy. It is a replica of the Book of Shadows and it is just so pretty. 

 3) Chevron

I just really love this pattern.


4) Greek Fire

These guys are making the best music right now and EVERYONE needs to check them out. You will find me promoting them all the time because I am part of the FYGF team and my design is actually being sold to raise some funds for their drummer, Johnny Venus. He was diagnosed with Leukemia earlier this year and we have been fundraising non-stop. Check out If This Is The End, a song that the band wrote for him and all the sales actually go to the Johnny Venus Leukemia Fund. Good stuff.

5) Wal-Mart

This is a pretty weird one. It's just that I ordered 200 prints of pictures from when I graduated (About two years ago) and I got them in today! It was super fast shipping on only 20 bucks. Not bad, Wal-Mart.
