you can see the road ahead in your dream

i start placement tomorrow! ahh! nervous and excited.
i still need to plan an appropriate outfit to wear. something business casual -  so sophisticated sounding. 
wish me luck!


heres the song that has been on repeat for the past hour in my room.. feel free to listen!?

music of my today

a fine frenzy.

some lovely music for you..

dancing in the dark has evolved

In 1984 young bruce springsteen released a song called dancing in the dark. 

In 2011 some women who goes by the name of dev released a song called dancing in the dark.

listen how different the lyrics to these two songs are. what are the implications of each? its slightly amazing how society has become accepting of such explicit music over less than 30 years. dev's lyrics are not alone.. music lyrics, music videos, movies, magazines etc., are so provocative they would have not been socially acceptable 30 years ago. 

yup, just something i was thinking about this morning. 

november video post

a while ago my friend suggested id like a band called florence and the machine. i'd never heard of them, or her.. at the time, and by the time i got home that night i forgot what band he mentioned. anyways, i heard a song on the radio this morning, loved it and realized it was florence and the machine..
so heres a video post.

i love adele and as often as its played on the radio i still love the song rolling in the deep. my sisters are so sick of the song, my mom is starting to get sick of it.. but i still have her cd on repeat (along with death cab for cutie) on my ipod.. even when at the gym. since i have no time recently to even sit down next to my computer, write let alone read posts im just posting a video of another one of my favourite adele songs

she is soo talented! i love her :)

update: my little pup is now pretty much waiting by the door when he needs to pee.. hes about 11 weeks now! i think hes a smart puppy and i hope im doing well training the little guy (with the help of my amazing family! - they have been soo helpful with me working 25 hours a week!)

i have 5 straight days of work since thursday.. can't wait for three days off on tuesday

home is a fire..

im such a snoop and i cant help it. i want to know what is going on in peoples lives cause i can guarantee it is different than what is going on in my life. i want to know how people think cause its different than how i think i can promise you that. its partially why i love reading so much, the authors think in their own way and write about characters in the way they think. its kind of cool when the character in a book thinks about situations in the exact way you think of them. i guess reading isn't really snooping but i am a big snoop. im babysitting this week for a few days. you better believe i went through all the food cupboards to see what snacks they have. and obviously i looked through the bookself to see if there are books i want to read and i went through the movies they have. oh and the channels, maybe they have channels i dont have with shows i have heard of but never seen. they have like 5 flavours of ice cream, and lots of different wine. i promised myself i would not drink the wine. im not sure if i snoop around because im bored or curious. maybe if i wasn't bored i wouldn't be curious. i'll completely admit i go through medicine and vitamin cabinets.. is that weird? as much as i wont ask, im curious if you take a perscription of some sort and if you do, what its for? i read cards, maybe calendars..its a bad habit and i probably shouldn't be telling anyone. but its not like there is any harm done. when im at my grandmas i always look through old photo albums and read letters (maybe ones my dad wrote to her when he was like 10 years old lol). okay im weird and curious. deal with it and dont deny it you probably do it too..
okay so here a song i love right now, july video post..

alright im back to reading.. something borrowed is a good book!

may video post

the civil wars - poison and wine. this music has feeling. the song is stunning, its touching and really pulls on your heart strings.
