You'll Always Be My Thunder.

Today by far was so much better. I had more energy to do stuff & actually got out of the house.
I woke up late which is nice, but I hate it since I feel like I'm missing the morning & a good chunk of the day. So, I've decided that waking up early is a good idea. That way I can take a walk which is something I really want to do. Taking walks clears your mind & gives you alone time. Just the morning air, early sun, quite homes, possibly music, or just your thoughts. I heard Billie Joe of Green Day did that a lot. That's how come so many good hits happened, I suppose. No harm in it.
Well, the sun once again peaked in & out throughout the day. We even got more rain & some thunder. I hate that, but the sun shower was kinda pretty. Made for some great art ideas (:
I got out of the house twice today. Granted, they were only small errands, but to me that was enough. Going on drives is my favorite. I love just listening to my iPod & seeing all sorts of sights. I could totally go for a nice long road trip right now, hahahaha. I'm a loser, wow.
My dad & I decided to play some intense badminton this evening. We cannot in any way be called pros, but it's nice to pretend we are. Actually, if we keep on practicing we might be just as good as last year. Maybe.
Other than that the day has gone by pretty efficiently & nicely. I saw two movies today. One serious & one far from serious. This morning I came down to watch this movie with Tom Hanks in it called; "Road to Perdition". That was AMAZING. Everyone who knows me, understands I'm a huge 30s fan. Any movie that takes place in the 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, or 70s, even much earlier, has my undivided attention. I could watch them all day.
The next movie was Borat. It was the uncensored version, thankfully. Wow, that was funny, but SO inappropriate. I feel bad for the people that had to go through that. I can see why he was sued. End of that story, hahahha.
Hmmm, well, that's all I can think of at the moment.
OH! & I heard the new Boys Like Girls single from their new album. That song, "Lovedrunk" is pretty sweet. I know everyone in the freakin' world loooooves BLG, but I met them & saw them in concert. They're even from here in Massachusetts. I had to listen to the song & I'm hooked. I knew I would be. So, even if you don't like them or don't want to hear the song, you should. It's a great song. My Myspace profile song. Now that must mean it's good!

Ah! I knew there was something I was missing. I yet again was stupid & forgot to download my old photography pictures onto my new laptop. I'll do it tomorrow, I promise. So, for the time being this will be another non-photography entry. Sorry ): I'm lame.

Soul Meets Body.




So, today by far has been one of the weirdest days in my existence. There are many reasons why.

First off, before I get into the total detail of my day I have to start off by saying these few words:

I'm still in complete shock that such an iconic person has passed away. Michael Jackson not only re-defined music, but inspired others to go for their dreams & set the basis for most of the 80's. He inspired so many artists that are famous & create iconic songs along with our musical generation these days. I truly believe without him the whole world of music we know today would be different. I remember actually the first time I heard Michael's famous "Thriller" album. Now, I wasn't born in the 80's neither did I grow up during that time, but my parents lived through it & so did my siblings. My sister Shelley was a pretty big fan, I'm sure. So, back when tapes were actually "hip" my parents sat me down in our living room & had me listen to the song "Thriller". When the creepy voice came on I ran around the house pretending to act scared of it. I'll never forget that moment. But, just a few hours ago MTV decided to play throughout the night Michael's videos, so I go the chance to see the music video. Creeeeeepy. What's even creepier is that I watched the video in my dark room, everyone in the house asleep, while it thundered and lightninged outside. Yup, it was an act of Michael himself, I'm sure. Or some act of God. It has to be. So, all in all, I wish Michael to rest in peace & my heart goes to his family & loved ones. He'll be missed & never forgotten no matter what stuff he went through in his lifetime. Let's look back at the good parts in his life & not that bad. We owe him that much<3

Next, I'd like my heart to go out to Farrah Fawcett's family & loved ones. She herself was an icon & I remember watching Charlie's Angels on TVLand with my Dad when I was younger. She's someone that all girls wanted to be like & will truly be missed as well. She's a strong woman & some day I hope to take those sort of values with me. Everyone should take pieces of her story with them. She's the bravest woman around. I give her so much credit for all she endured even if we never knew one another & were from different eras.


Well, I have to say those are 2 reasons why my day was a little wacky. Very unexpected in many ways. They both sort of shaped my childhood, so that's why it's such a shock. The dentist wasn't that bad, thankfully. But, the weather had me down all day. I woke up to find it cloudy & even when the sun tried it's hardest nothing but clouds rolled in to consume the day. Finally, when the day was coming to close I was able to see a sunset. That was nice. Now, if only that sun can stay... What's weird about the weather was that it was supposed to be sunny all day. Maybe the incoming passed ones made it cloudier. I don't know what it is, but every time someone I know or someone that's impacted me dies, there's a cloudy day. It can rain or just be horrid out. I hate it. It's weird. Maybe that thunderstorm was like a celebration from the Gods for the few incoming iconic stars. Who knows. That's a little out there, but we'll never know for sure. It doesn't harm anyone to think...right?
I'm more on the edge today due to various personal reasons & that's dampened my day sooooo much. I'm hoping tomorrow is better. I beg for it.
I got to actually spend a nice lunch with my mom today & go for a quick shopping trip with her which I never do. I don't know I just felt we needed to re-connect. She will be having knee surgery soon & that's a major surgery. I'm not trying to be negative or jinx things in anyways, but you never know what'll happen... I'm just glad we weren't at each other's throats for once. It was nice. The only great part of the day.
For the most part that's it. I was itching to get outta the house for the first real time this week since Monday & it was great. But, the rest of the week including the weekend will be spent indoors or at home. A few errands here & there. Ugh, I don't know. It just doesn't really feel like summer yet. Just mini spurts here & there. Nothing true yet. We'll see what tomorrow brings...

Song of the Year.

So, I started getting sick of the lack of updating on my previous entries, so I decided to do-over my blog. That's the reason for my new background & reason this would be my "first" entry. Now that school's out & I have my laptop, I can blog more often.
Currently, I'm sitting in my room burning some lovely inscents from my newly favorite mall store. They have the awsomest, most relaxing gadgets there. It's the only place I trust getting scents & whatnot from. I'm drinking some cold coffee that my Mom made. Nice, I know. I hear some music from the newly Australian band I like called, The Blaqk Year. They're pretty awsome. I'm attempting to persuade my parents into letting me buy their album via iTunes. Anyone a fan? Is the album good? (: I'm sure it'll be pretty interesting. I also see a cloud of smoke form the inscents puffing around in all shapes across my walls. I can honestly say being out of school is awsome. I have the freedom to do things more often. But, I do say that these cloudy days have to leave. It's killing the summer mood. Hopefully the warm weather hits along with it's never ending sunny days. That would be perfect. Maybe motivate me to do more. These few days have been wacky though for various reasons. I've had my up & down moods. It stinks. The life of a teenager is really not that easy. I'm pumped for the upcoming summer. Many things are planned & I hope to do them all. That'd be perfect. I'm also looking forward to having a summer album. It could so possibly be 21st Century Breakdown by Green Day. That album is amazing. One of the greatest easily. Hmmm, summer romance? Yeahhhhh, that'd make for one great summer. I love contemplating it all (:
