Welcome Home

This song has been put on replay a lot lately. Its my favorite this week. For my video class I had to make a short video and I put this song in as the background music, it worked perfectly. I haven't found another song by Radical Face that is even as remotely good as this one. In the end it just makes me want to come home.

Holocene

Since the summer I've gotten really captivated by the sound of Bon Iver. I love their music more than any other indie folk alternative band I've heard before. I've realized after listening to Bon Iver so much my music taste has changed. I'm now focused on bands that sound like Bon Iver. I still love Brand New, but Its hard for me to listen to them as often anymore. I think as we get older we grow, in ways we don't even realize, and sometimes do realize even if we don't like it. I'm starting to think that brand new is a good memory of my teen years, and now, being 20 (woo!) I'm listening to music with new ears, and indie is my favorite.This song holocene is one that I can listen to on repeat for hours. I even fall asleep to it some nights. loveee it.

Look at the stars, Look how they shine for you

Day 30- A picture of Someone you miss

Glen. I MISS HIM! I miss him I miss him I miss him. I miss him reallly really bad. I live in Hawaii right now...way too many miles and a ocean away from him in California. Its the end of October and i've been in Oahu for almost 3 months now, and I haven't seen glen since july 28th. Each day it gets harder and harder to be apart. I've never missed someone as much as I miss glen. I miss glen so much it hurts. I can't wait to move back home in december. To be wrapped up in his arms again will make me the happiest girl in the world. and I chose this song, because its OUR song.

Yellow By Coldplay

Where Does The Good Go

Day 29 - A picture that makes you angry.

Animal Cruelty! I hate the thought that someone would let this poor dog starve like this. It gets me so worked up, knowing that humans can be so cruel and heartless, to let this animal cruelty go on. This shouldn't happen. ever. There are poor animals being abused and abandoned every day. It makes me so sad to the point where I'm angry that this goes on. No animal deserves to be treated like this. Give a donation to animal shelter or volunteer. You can make a difference. If you have an animal, I hope you show it some love after reading this.

And I'm Terrified for the first time

Day 28- A picture of something you're afraid of

I'm afraid of fear itself. I feel I am invincible until I feel fear of something. That fear keeps me from progressing, keeps me from growing, and experiencing things and what life has to offer. I used to say I was only afraid of sharks, but as I get older I'm realizing there is so much I fear It's shocking. So many things that could go wrong, and stop you from growing in a way. I have felt the peacefulness and relief of overcoming a fear before and it is a great feeling. Sometimes in order for me to do that I had to tell myself I wasn't afraid and believe it in order to get where I wanted to be. I hope I can be strong and not fear too much more. Everyone wants to fee. invincible right?

My fav version of the song

Don't trying asking Cause I never know what to say

Day 27 - A picture of yourself and a family member

My sister Breanne and I on halloween many many years ago. This photo has made its way out of a dusty old photo album to my bedroom, to my bulletin board, to myspace, to facebook,and now to blogspot. Breanne and I have had so many good times together i can't even name them all. As my big sister she has done her job by always teaching me the things that are most important and I appreciate her more than I share. I feel so blessed to have her as my big sister. I love you breanne:)

What rushes into my heart and my skull I can't control

Day 25 - A picture of your day

Well now that I live in Oahu, Hawaii..I feel like its only natural to post a nature shot. So this is me, on a rare occasion being cliche, and posting a beach shot. I go to the beach almost everyday. most days. 9 out of 10. i love the beach. its perfect for almost every mood im ever in. (Flume by bon iver)

And I felt Love again

Day 24 - A picture of something you wish you could change.

I wish i could change PEOPLE. Particularly...how selfish people are. I wish every person was more generous, caring, giving, helpful, selfless. I know the world would be so much better. When people are kind and giving service, they are not only making others happy but themselves as well. I don't see why we can't all think outside of ourselves and be a better person.

 (I can feel a hot one by Manchester orchestra)

You could loose your faith in freedom and feel trapped in your own skin

Day 23 - A picture of your favorite book. Way of a peaceful warrior.. Its opened my eyes so much. I love books that inspire me and keep me thriving to be more. I love changing and improving myself. This book really made me think and re evaluate my life and some decisions I've made. You just get a whole new perspective on things and life and what you can accomplish and how strong one individual can be physically, mentally, and spiritually. READ IT! it will change your life in some way or another.

 (faith by taking back sunday)

Sometimes I lay under the moon and thank God I'm breathing, then I pray don't take me soon cause I'm here for a reason

Day 22 - A picture of something you wish you were better at Something I wish I was better at is probably being creative. when I get thinking I feel like I have a full room of ideas but I can't find the door. I want to get to my full extent of creativeness. The photo is of my (old)bedroom wall. I had the best time painting it. just painted it all black then splattered on gray white and turquoise. I want to do something like that again. (one day by matisyahu)

You're not outside, you're not inside, you're not anymore

Day 21 - A picture of something you wish you could forget

The deaths of two of my grandmas. Those were sad days for my dad. I hated seeing him so sad, and of course i was sad. The photo reminds me of my grandma reed. The last time I hung out with her when she was well, we were munching on these almond chocolates from sees. Hmmm...:( (bloods on fire by pinback)

Someway, baby, it’s part of me, apart from me

Day 20 - A picture of somewhere you'd love to travel

I've always been a fan of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. While watching the movies I not only fell in love with the characters and the story line but the beautiful scenery that left me jaw dropping. I couldn't how amazingly gorgeous our earth could be. So many scenes in the movies just gave me a strong motivation to get on the next plane there. I would jump through the tv screen if i could. New Zealand has become one of the top places I would LOVE to travel. (Holocene by Bon Iver)

won't break anything that you are, you are

Day 19:A picture of a letter.

I chose the letter P,cause my name starts with a P. mhmmmm

(song:all we are-one republic)

Sensitive, it's true, alligator tears cried over you.

Day 18:A picture of your biggest insecurity.

My chin. i wont dare put up a photo where you can actually see the problem.
its just got a lot of bumps on it. they wont pop.id have to burn a bunch of layers off my chin for it to ever be flat again. and i defintely dont want to look like a burn victim. 'sigh'

(song:alligator-tegan & sara)

just a chance that maybe we'll find better days

Day 17:A picture of something that has made a huge impact on your life recently.

MONEY!! ugh, why is does money have to be sooo important.
My money has been slipping through my fingers so fast.
It sucks not being able to do half of the things you want to do because it costs too much!
I'm try to get a job. I've been on 3 job interviews in the last 3 months and
still no job. Why can't money just grow on trees?


(song:better days-goo goo dolls)

So Breathe While You're Still Alive

Day 16:A picture of a person who inspires you.

I'm not sure who inspires me. I can't think of one person. I think I've been inspired by so many people. Musicians, Artists, Singers, Poets, Parents, Church, Friends.
