so i have a book review due monday, and a big paper due thursday, and i'm taking the cset on saturday, and my TPA is due next tuesday...AHHHHHHHH

the end of this semester will be nice, but i also don't want it to be over because that just means i'm closer to graduation, and closer to having to start my life.




I love James Franco

So it's really hard to narrow down my favorite love songs, so I had to choose 15 of my favorite ones instead of ten. So this is a slightly altered top ten list.


1. At Last- Etta James
"At last my love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song

Ohh yeah yeah
At last
the skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clover
The night I looked at you

I found a dream, that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to press my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known

Ohh yeah yeah…
You smile, you smile
oh And then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
for you are mine....
At Last"

2. Halo- Beyonce
"Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace

You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away

I can feel your halo halo halo

Hit me like a ray of sun
Burning through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light"

3. Michelle- The Beatles
"I love you, I love you, I love you.
That's all I want to say.
Until I find a way
I will say the only words I know that
You'll understand."

4. I'm Yours- Jason Mraz
"But I won't hesitate no more,
no more it cannot wait
I'm yours"


5. All My Life- K-C & Jojo
"All My Life
I prayed for someone like you
and I thank God
That I..that I finally found you
All My Life
I prayed for someone like you
And I hope that you feel the same way too
Yes, I pray that you do love me too"

6. You Are the Best Thing- Ray Lamontagne
"And Baby, the way you move me its crazy.
it’s like, you see right through me, you make it easier,
You please me and you don’t even have to try.

oh because,
you are the best thing
you are the best thing
you are the best thing
ever happened to me"

7. Unchained Melody- Righteous Brothers
" Oh, my love
my darling
I've hungered for your touch
a long lonely time
and time goes by so slowly
and time can do so much
are you still mine?
I need your love
I need your love
Godspeed your love to me"

8. The Luckiest- Ben Folds
"And where was I before the day
That I first saw your lovely face?
Now I see it everyday and I know
That I am the luckiest"

9. My Love is Your Love- Whitney Houston
"Cause your love is my love
And my love is your love
It would take an eternity to break us
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us"

10. Mary's Song (Oh My My My)- Taylor Swift
"Take me back to the time when we walked down the aisle
Our whole town came and our mamas cried
You said I do and I did too
Take me home where we met so many years before
We'll rock our babies on that very front porch
After all this time, you and I"

11. First Day of My Life- Bright Eyes
"Remember the time you drove all night
Just to meet me in the morning
And I thought it was strange you said everything changed
You felt as if you'd just woke up
And you said “this is the first day of my life
I’m glad I didn’t die before I met you
But now I don’t care I could go anywhere with you
And I’d probably be happy”"


12. With You- The Subways
"Cause when I'm with you
It seems so easy
It seems so easy
My best days are with you
They are so easy
They are so easy"

13. Good Morning- John Legend
"Good morning,
Good morning love,
It's my favorite love song,
I waited all night long,
For morning,
Good morning love
Before we start the day dear,
Im whispering in your ear,
Good morning."

14. Wonderwall- Oasis
"I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now...
Because maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me ?
And after all
You're my wonderwall "

15. God Only Knows- The Beach Boys
"God only knows what I'd be without you"

I used to take piano lessons in high school, I wish I never stopped. I know I know...before you say "i told you so" i was and i still am very aware of everyone telling me "don't quit piano you'll regret it" i knew that i would regret it when i did quit...but i didn't have the time people...i had to get ready for college. the only way in which quitting the piano could have been avoided is if a. i was marry a rich dude, b. i magically was a millionaire. but neither of these things happened before my senior year of high school so the piano was quit.

Anyways.....

On another note, i love this song, i love this video...and i lovelovelove michael ealy

Regina

"This is how it works
You're young until you're not
You love until you don't
You try until you can't

You laugh until you cry
You cry until you laugh
And everyone must breathe
Until their dying breath"
-Regina Spektor "On the Radio"

I need to catch up on my schoolwork....getting too far behind.

Persons, Places, Things...minus the first and last...

It's finally the weekend. I'm going to San Diego, I can't wait, I love it there. I'm so glad that I live in California, I'm just a few hours away all these beautiful places. My dream is to be able to live on the central coast in a small beach town. All I want is a cute little beach house, where I can wake up and fall asleep to beautiful sunsets, and the sound of crashing waves. There may be other places in the world that I would love to visit, but I'll always come back to California.

My favorite places in California....

San Diego














San Francisco













Disneyland

Monteray Bay













Orange County (New Port Beach, Laguna Beach, and Huntington Beach)

Office Lovin'

So i've watched this weeks episode of the office like three times already. It was so good/hilarious/cute. I actually teared up (ok blubbered like a baby) when Jim and Pam were getting married (you would have too if you had waited like more than half a decade for this moment). And Jim was saying the cutest things. Sometimes I hate tv, because I'm pretty sure guys like that don't really exist.

What i've been waiting for, for 6 years/whole life

Why am I still awake??

Soooo today i heard music from the band Noisettes. They are awesome, I love her voice.

Also got to watch half of my tv shows for the week. (mondays, and thursdays are the best nights...oh and sunday too curb). Curb Your Enthusiasm, and How I met Your Mother crack me up every time. Larry David is the king of awkward situations, and everyone needs a barney, marshall, robin, ted, and lily in their lives. Oh yeah, and thursday is gonna be awesome with Jim and Pam finally getting married. Tv is lovely.

I'm so not into school. It's so hard just to do the simplest homework assignments. I'm letting things pile up to much, I know it's gonna kick me in the ass soon, but I just can't motivate myself to actually start things.

It's scary that this is my last year. Things went by way too fast, the future is scary, and I don't want it to come. I don't know if I really want to teach. The thought of actually having to do student teaching scares the crap out of me. I would love to get a job working at a museum right after school, and actually be able to make a good living. Life is going by way to fast. I really wish I could just start my whole life over again, I miss the growing up phase of my life. This whole being an adult thing isn't all it's cracked up to be, and sucks most of the time.

"Stop this train
I wanna get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?"
-John Mayer Stop This Train, song of life right now

Top Ten Happy Songs

So ever since I've read the book, and watched the movie, High Fidelity, I've been inspired to make top ten lists. This one is for songs that everytime I hear them makes me extremely happy. Especially when I'm driving and can blast the volume, and sing as loudly (and horribly) as I want.

1. Here Comes the Sun- The Beatles
"Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces,
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here,
Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun and I say it's all right"

2. Dancing in the Moonlight- King Harvest
"We like our fun and we never fight
You can't dance and stay uptight
It's a supernatural delight
Everybody was dancing in the moonlight"

3. Mint Car- The Cure
"The sun is up I'm so happy I could scream!
And there's nowhere else in the world I'd rather be."

4. Dancing With Myself- Billy Idol
"Oh dancing with myself
oh dancing with myself
Well there's nothing to lose
and there's nothing to prove
I'll be dancing with myself"

5. Perfect Day- Hoku
"It's the perfect day,
Tomorrow's gonna come too soon
I could stay, forever as I am."

6. Banana Pancakes- Jack Johnson
"Maybe we can sleep in
I'll make you banana pancakes
pretend like it's the weekend now"

7. In the Summertime- Mungo Jerry
"We're not grey people, we're not dirty, we're not mean.
We love everybody, but we do as we think.
When the weather's fine, we go fishing or go swimming in the sea.
We're always happy, life's for living, yeah, that's our philosophy."

8. Spiderwebs- No Doubt
"Sorry, I'm not home right now
I'm walking in your spiderwebs
So leave a message and i'll call you back
A likely story but leave a message
and i'll call you back."

9. Brown Eyed Girl- Van Morrison
"Do you remember when we used to sing,
Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da"

10. Are You Gonna Be My Girl?- Jet
"Well, so 1,2,3, take my hand and come with me
because you look so fine and I really wanna make you mine"

blogging and whatnot

So i've never done this whole blogging thing, but like whatever, why not, i'm bored.

i absolutely adore kid cudi

Pursuit of Happiness:

Crush a bit, little bit, roll it up, take a hit
Feelin’ lit feelin’ light, 2 am summer night.
I don't care, hand on the wheel, drivin drunk, I'm doin’ my thing
Rollin the Midwest side and out livin’ my life getting’ out dreams
People told me slow my road I'm screaming out fuck that
Imma do just what I want lookin’ ahead no turnin’ back
if I fall if I die know I lived it to the fullest
if I fall if I die know I lived and missed some bullets

I'm on the pursuit of happiness and I know everything that shine ain't always gonna be gold
I'll be fine once I get it, I'll be good.

Tell me what you know about dreamin’ dreamin’
you don't really know about nothin’ nothin’
tell me what you know about them night terrors every night
5 am, cold sweats wakin’ up to the skies
tell me what you know about dreams, dreams
tell me what you know about night terrors, nothin’
you don't really care about the trials of tomorrow
rather lay awake in a bed full of sorrow

I'm on the pursuit of happiness
And I know everything that shines ain't always gonna be gold, hey
I'll be fine once I get it, yeah
I'll be good

Soundtrack 2 My Life:

I got 99 problems and they all bitches
Wish I was Jigga Man, carefree living
But I'm not Sean or Martin Louie
I'm the Cleveland nigga rollin' with them Brooklyn boys
You know how hard it be when you start livin' large
I control my own life, Charles was never in charge
No sitcom could teach Scott about the dram
Or even explain the troubles that haunted my mom
On Christmas time, my mom Christmas grind
Got me most of what I wanted, how'd you do it mom, huh?
She copped the toys I would play with in my room by myself, why he by himself?
He got two older brothers, one hood, one good
An independent older sister got me fly when she could
But they all didn't see, the little bit of sadness in me, Scotty

I've got some issues that nobody can see
And all of these emotions are pouring out of me
I bring them to the light for you
It's only right
This is the soundtrack to my life, the soundtrack to my life

I'm super paranoid, like a 6th sense
Since my father died, I ain't been writing since
And I tried to piece the puzzle of the universe
Split an eighth of shrooms just so I could see the universe
I tried to think about myself as a sacrifice
Just to show the kids they ain't the only ones who up at night
The moon will illuminate my room and soon I'm consumed by my doom
Once upon a time nobody gave a fuck
It's all said and done and my cock's been sucked
So now I'm in the cut, alcohol in the wound
My heart's an open sore that I hope heals soon
I live in a cocoon opposite of Cancun
Where it is never sunny, the dark side of the moon
So it's more than life, I try to shed some light on a man
Not many people of this planet understand

I've got some issues that nobody can see
And all of these emotions are pouring out of me
I bring them to the light for you
It's only right
This is the soundtrack to my life, the soundtrack to my life

I'm prolly this close to go and trying some coke
And a happy ending would be slitting my throat
Ignorance to cope man
Ignorance is bliss
Ignorance is love, and I need that shit
If I never did shows, then I'd probably be a myth
If I cared about the blogs, then I'd probably be a jack-ass
Don't give a shit what people talkin' 'bout fam
Haters shake my hand but I keep the sanitizer on deck
Hope I really get to see 30
Wanna settle down, stop being so flirty
Most of the clean faces be the most dirty
I just need a thoroughbred, cook when I'm hungry
Ass all chunky, brain is insanity
Only things that calm me down, pussy and some Cali trees
And I get both, never truly satisfied
I am happy, that's just the saddest lie

I've got some issues that nobody can see
And all of these emotions are pouring out of me
I bring them to the light for you
It's only right
This is the soundtrack to my life, the soundtrack to my life

...to my life... yeah uhuh yeah
