Childhood



So I didn't really do much today but I had a great time tonight at my Family Home Evening. We combined a few groups and went to the bishops house for an activity and snack. It was a blast getting to know some other people in the ward. After Family Home Evening me and a few of my room mates went over to our FHE brothers apartment and played Assassins Creed and Halo Reach. I am good at being an assassin but that's about it :D Jordan and Patrick are good teachers though. Hopefully I will have another chance to get better!

The link today is for one of my favorite Backstreet Boys songs. I used to love them so so much and at one point had all of their songs memorized (middle school time). So here is a song that reminds me of a certain girls camp and just brings me overall good memories. Enjoy!!

I should be asleep

Mr. Holland's Opus 


I really need to be sleeping because I have school in 5.5 hours but I have Mr. Hollands Opus and CAN'T STOP WATCHING IT!! I love this movie like crazy. It makes me so happy about life and about music. It is the movie where I feel basically every emotion and still come out very happy! It is just amazing! This song makes me cry every single time but it makes me so happy. It makes me remember and think about my older brother and my younger brothers who I can no longer protect from the world anymore. I am grateful for John Lennon writing it but when he sings it, he doesn't evoke the same emotions in me that Glenn Holland does.

Here is the clip from YouTube but I just suggest watching the whole movie because there is no comparison. It is one of my favorite movies of all time.

Weekends Are The Best!!

So this weekend I had the opportunity to go to Provo and visit some really good friends. It is those friends that always seem to make my life easier and help me through all of my difficult times. This weekend was no exception. I had such a great time messing around, trying to go to the theater, watching Megamind, eating Taco Bell, raiding all the Red Boxes, and drinking slushies. My friends are awesome :D So, moral of the story is, I am so grateful for the friendships I have made and continue to make in Provo!!

My musical inspiration for the weekend is Radiohead, their new album is called The King Of Limbs and it is AWESOME! I think my favorite song would have to be Lotus Flower. The music video for it was released February 18th and it is all black and white with the lead singer Thom Yorke dancin like a crazy! I love it so so much :D That's it for today. Hope everyone had a good weekend!!

Korea Anyone?

I woke up this morning feeling sick so after my 7:45 class I came home and slept until 2 pm. Needless to say, I feel a lot better. I am still not doing great but improvement is improvement! My muse for today comes from a different continent. One of my room mates is very into Korean music and just Korean things in general. I really appreciate this because she is introducing me to many new types of music and people. I am really discovering my love for it all. Koreans are very talented and this music from this band makes me very happy. This band is called Big Bang and their music is phenomenal! This song is called Lollipop and it is a very happy song that should lift your spirits!

Music In My Life!

My most recent desire to blog comes from music. Each time I have a new epiphany about music or about about a certain artist or song, I will be sharing those thought on this blog. Today's winner is Muse for never failing to make my life complete.

Life As We Know It

I was just looking through some old photos and found this one from last semester. It is in a moment like this where I feel genuinely happy. I love having friends who feel like family.

Brumby - Of Dreams and Death (Music Video)

Oh my goodness I am in LOVE. This band is called Brumby and they are amazing. I never woud have found them if the lead singers sister wasn't my room mate! This song is called Of Dreams and Death and the video was made by Canico Studios.

Oliver Tingey : Vocals

Tyler Tingey : Guitar

Spener Tingey : Bass Guitar

Dylan Self : Drums

Oliver is my room mates brother, the other Tingeys are their cousins and the drummer is basically their other brother. They are having a concert in Provo next Saturday night and I encourage anyone who is in Provo to attend! I will be drivin down and I know it will be a blast!! You can look them up on Youtube and they have a Facebook page where you can download their music for free!! Definately worth a look!

Long time no see

It has been quite some time since I have posted anything that reached the blog world. I am starting a new phase in my life and have decided to revisit my blog and use it as a journal. I have edited it and matured its appearance so as to not give off the high school girl look, which was once working so well for me :D

I think that this will be a valuable source of information for my parents, siblings, friends and other relatives that do not have the fortune of attending BYU Idaho with me in the fall. (Emily, Benjamin, Rachel, Valerie, Katherine, Drew, April and the list goes on and on)

I hope you will enjoy staying in my life as much as I will enjoy sharing my life with you. :D Ta for now!
