Song Challenge Day 10

a song that makes me fall asleep...Heartbeats ~ Jose Gonzalez

I first heard this song last year on Bones and instantly loved it. I still sometimes listen to it before bed.

Also, there should be accents in "Jose" and "Gonzalez" but I'm too lazy to teach myself how to do them in Blogger. Also, apparently Spanish people are not as crazy about accents as the French. Can anyone confirm or deny?

In other news, I am trying to write a speech. So far I have written "Spich. By me." This is not going very well.

*Update* I've now written three lines. Just re-reading them makes me bored to tears. How does one write a thrilling commencement address?

Songz Day 9...and the return of the Blog Challenge!

a song to dance to:  Monster ~ Lady Gaga


And because I can't think of anything else to say, I'll do another Blog Challenge day...remember that thing I started way back in Januray? Yeah, me neither.


a habit I wish I didn't have...

I would put procrastination, but everybody puts procrastination. Everybody procrastinates; that's not nearly bad enough of a habit. So here goes!
One habit that I wish I didn't have is complaining about people behind their backs. I guess I don't "talk behind people's backs" in the normal sense, because for some reason I'm not usually annoyed by people I don't know very well -- or at least not annoyed enough to talk about it. What I do is worse: when one of my friends or family members has done or said something to hurt me, I don't confront him/her; instead, I whinge about it to another friend. To the person's face, I act totally friendly and unbothered even though I may be seething on the inside. I can't decide which is the better alternative, though: To tell people off for all their petty slights, introducing discord into an otherwise perfectly good relationship? Or to just remain silent and deny myself the satisfaction of complaining? For little things, I'm leaning towards the latter, trying to be less obsessive about snarky throwaway comments, trying to care less about what people think of me...basically, trying to be less of a loser :)


Sorry, this post was meant to be slightly more amusing than it turned out to be, but I ended up picking a rather dismal topic...have a picture... 

I would never dissect a ewe.

 
...and a ninja-hyperlink, if you found it! Yeah, I spend too much time on YouTube...maybe I should've written about procrastination instead!

Song Challenge Day 8-ish

a song to which I know all the words: Going Back to Hogwarts ~ AVPM

Yup. I'm just that hardcore.

That live video is pretty much the most amazing thing ever, but here's the nice clean studio-ish version if you want it.

You don't understand this love.

um...some more songs?

Yeah, so, Blogger was down, and I was busy and forgot, and...

Let's just get to this, shall we?

a song that makes me sad: Corner of Your Heart ~ Ingrid Michaelson

Not so much sad as creepy. That counts, right?

a song that reminds me of someone: Drowse ~ Queen

My seester, for some reason. Which is weird, because we never sang it together or anything.

a song that reminds me of somewhere: How You Remind Me ~ Nickelback

The Jacksonville airport on Christmas day when I was probably about twelve. I wonder why I remember this so vividly, or the fact that this song was playing. It was good times with the cuzzins, though!

a song that reminds you of a certain event: Since U Been Gone ~ Kelly Clarkson

Prom this year :)

All caught up now!

Song Challenge Day 3

a song that makes me happy: Grace Kelly ~ Mika

There are very few bad moods that this music video cannot cure.

Song Challenge: Day Two

My Least Favorite Song: Sleepyhead ~ Passion Pit

Call me a monster, but I don't like Passion Pit. This isn't actually my least favorite song, it's just a song that is on my iPod for some reason that I have never listened to all the way through. There are definitely songs I dislike more, but who actually wants to go on a search for the world's worst songs?

And now I'm listening to it again, and it's kind of growing on me...oops...I just like the high-pitched creatures screaming in the background during the verses, though.

I've decided that the source of the squealing is Falkor the luckdragon :)

Song Challenge Lolz: Day 1

Hey bugz!

So everybody is doing this song challenge on Facebook, and I don't know where they got it from so I'm just gonna copy them. Except I'm doing it on Blogger because I don't want to clog up people's news feeds any more than I already do with my hilaaahrious/unnecessary wall posts and stuff.

My Favorite Song: Status Quo ~ Starship

This is not actually my favorite song, just my favorite song of the week. It's from the new Starkid musical, Starship, sung by the lovely Joey Richter and written by the lovelier Darren Criss. And it's perfect for AP exam week. (That's true of a lot of Starkid songs, for some reason.)

If you don't know what Starkid is, you are missing out on life. So I've used my newly-found hyperlink power to enlighten you.
