say love. Love's gonna get you down.


Hello. I hope everyone had a great Christmas. I thought I would blog because its better than doing nothing. I also have comments on somethings that I have gotten for chirstmas and somethings that I have seen over my break so far.

So music first! I got two cds.

First one. Great Northern. Trading Twilight for Daylight.
I found this band like three years ago. Finally someone got it for me for chirstmas. It wasn't as good as I remember it. But it is still really good. Its good music to just chill out to, but have something good to listen to. I also think its going to be a band that will grow on me.

Second one. The Gaslight Anthem. 59 Sound. I love Gaslight. I only had sink or swim before. Now I have 59 sound. I don't have much to say about it, but check it out. I really love it. Just makes my love for this band grow. <3

Movies. I watched Hellboy 2 Golden Army and was highly disappointed. It kinda upset me. Like I loved Hellboy. I also loved Pan's Labryith by the same director. The special effects were amazing. Don't get me wrong. It was really the plot. There was no real great build up in the plot. it was just there. At points very cheesy. disappointing.

Books. I HAVE BOUGHT BOOK THIEF!!! FINALLY!!! This book is one of the most brilliant books I have ever read. If you have not read this book, just off your butt and get this book. I mean if I had to make a list of the most well written books (first off it would take three years) but this book would be on there up with books like Scarlet Letter, Dairy of Ann Frank, Wuthering Heights, etc. It is moving. Not to mention the most beautiful witting that I had read in a while.

I also bought The Picture of Dorian Gray. Like I didn't even know what the heck this book was. I hate to admit but I first heard of Dorian Gray on League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Sad, I know, but hey he was my favorite character in the movie. So I saw this book on the shelf at Barnes & Noble and was like THIS IS THE BOOK HE WAS FROM! Like I had heard of the author. Oscar Wilde. I mean I'm not from a box, but I didn't know this was a book by him. His only novel. I am super pumped to read it now. My dad says that its a very good book. so YAY! I was just looking up pictures of Oscar Wilde. He is not ugly at all. I love the clothing of the 1800's. So I just look at these pictures and its really well...here ill let you look... (DUMB BLOGGER LET ME COPY AND PASTE!!!)

So I'm thinking I should wrap this up. I like lists. How about you? Do you like lists? haha. well I don't like lists of things to do. I like lists of random things. So here is my list of my favorite songs right this moment. like THIS VERY MOMENT. (btw if you click on the song titles it will take you to a youtube video of the song. There are amazing videos to the amanda palmer songs, but f-ing youtube and warner company need to die because they took them off. So I'm stuck with a weird video for runs in the family. and Astronaut isn't on youtube but its the good video.)

Coyotes by Jason Mraz
Runs in the Family by Amanda Palmer
Astronaut by Amanda Palmer
