Who's Up For Round Two?

Putting your iTunes on shuffle is really entertaining. Going from Ludacris to Mormon Tabernacle Choir, from John Mayer to Taking Back Sunday, Disturbed to Jack Johnson. It covers the wide spectrum of emotions that people feel. It shows a lot about your character and how you feel. If you looked at my library you'd probably think I was insane. I have a broad range because I am open to new music. I appreciate the work musicians do because I am one. It's hard to compose a song believe me I've tried. Its amazing what musicians pull out. What they what their message to be. There is a song for everything. Whether you want your soul to be at peace or whether you have the impulse to mosh. Or when someone breaks your heart in two or if you want to get pumped up for a game of Ultimate. Sometimes I like to play just one portion of a song over and over again. Like More than a Feeling by Boston. Classic song. There is one part of the song that I just love to hear. It's towards the end. 3:15-4:39. Its the pretty much the climax. Where the band just unleashes. Brad Delp(Lead singer) Just lets it out. Tom Scholtz(Lead Guitarist)shreds. Jeff Neal(Drummer)and his gut busting solo. Its amazing how the band works to send out a message. They end on a haunting echo that just stays ingrained in my mind. Truly a great song. I got a nice call today from Jeena. It's really nice to catch up with good/old/meaningful friends. Her laugh makes me laugh I don't know why it just does. She filled me in with some insights. I found out that I'm addicted to Black people and I found out that John Mayer is racist. Thats a bit Unfortunate. I don't know the reasoning behind it yet but I'll find out soon enough. She won't let me forget it.:) The Office makes me laugh so hard. The awkward scenarios and the connections between all the characters. I watch a couple episodes everyday. I actually have some characters that work in my office. I have a young Creed that sits right next to me, a white Stanley that works right in front of me and I just recently found out that I have an Oscar, he's not flamboyantly gay and he's way nice. I love him he helps me out a lot. It's quite entertaining. I could see my mountain this morning. It was incredible like always. I have a bad habit of looking at it when I drive. If I get in an accident thats what I'm going to blame. The sunrise hits it perfectly. The colors that bounce off of it are almost every color imaginable. My mountain is so beautiful it doesn't even look real, it's like a mirage. If you ever come visit me I will take you there. It would be selfish of me not to share that experience with you. Miss Congeniality is hilarious. If you have the time to watch it please do. Danielle and I just busted out for a good hour and a half. It was great. I love seeing people super excited about something. Tonight my mom busted into my room and showed me all the stuff she saved on at Walgreens. She bought 9 huge bottles of shampoo, hair color, scissors, 4 three musketeers, a pack of paper towels, and two boxes of Kleenex for 7 BUCKS and got 10 BUCKS BACK! I still can't believe it. I think it's hilarious. Phillips and I have our lifetime supply of shampoo for college now. I had an interesting conversation with Phillips and some kid I don't even know. Talking about personalities. Things that make us tick. He felt passionately about the Myers-Briggs test he knew it backwards and forwards from what I saw, it blew my mind. Thats how I feel about the color code. I discovered the other day that all my closest friends are Red (or have a good streak of red in them). In some aspects my opposite. Opposites attract. Blues need Reds to get them a good kick back into reality. Reds need Blues for emotional needs. I need a good kick every once in awhile. Thank you Reds :) Tedd is Blue. He understands most of my views,logic,and emotions. It's nice :) So I got to see what Maine looks like through Google Maps. I got to see where Tedd was working and living. It was comforting to see where he was and to know that he was in a safe place since He is far from home. I'm proud of him for what he is doing. I researched the type of boat he's currently in the process of building. It's going to be amazing piece of craftsmanship when it is completed. I can't wait to see it. I'm really tied to this one artist named Alexi Murdoch. He's just super chill and his lyrics seem to match my emotions. I discovered him off of a movie called Away We Go. It was made by the same director of Juno. So it was awkwardly hilarious and It had Jim from the Office in it too. He's a brilliant actor... I love art. It's a big part of my life. I love museums. I love to walk through them and state my opinion. When I see a painting or a sketch I appreciate every stroke or line the artist made. I try to feel what they felt when they constructed their piece. My mom is an artist. Danielle is an artist. I watch them plan out and finish their masterpieces. My mom is the best to watch. Her hair is all in a mess and She wears a worn out apron that has done more than served its purpose. She blasts her 80's or Broadway musical music and goes to town. She is so happy when she does it. It makes me want to cry sometimes that she doesn't have her art studio anymore. Shes an amazing woman and she makes do with whatever she has. I hope to be like her one day. I try to draw sometimes. I've done a few sketches... My Grandparents used to own the largest original art distributor on the east coast. Unfortunately it was lost to the economy but I'll never forget how it bonded my family, my friends even. I miss their house on Wilshire court. People say " Oh why cause it's huge!" No... that house was more than that. Full of memories. Rolling down the big hill, it had Treehouse where I busted my head open and had to get stitches for the first time, the huge Christmas tree in the living room with endless presents underneath, having sandwiches at midnight with my grandparents while watching a TV show, where I was sheltered for 4 months of my life since we sold our home, the late night talks at sleepovers in the movie theatre, young women's gatherings/ sleepovers, pool and air hockey, the forts that were built and slept under, accidentally hitting tennis balls over the tennis court fence, Extreme hide and seek, Proms, Super Bowl parties, sitting on the roof with a dear person of mine, birthday parties,Halo/Rockband/GH/Bioshock on the big screen, the place where I begged to drive my Grandparents SL 500 Benz known as Optimus Prime, the notorious soda fridge,the garden where my cousin Cameron and I would go pick Jalapenos and we would eat them whole to see who would lose their composure first, the place where I had my sweet 16, the smell of canvas and paint, watching Gabe loaf around on the back of the couch, there are so many but most importantly it's the place where my Papa accepted the teachings of the LDS Gospel. I will never forget that night where I had my family gathered around and how we watched the Patriarch of my family burst into tears. I had never seen him cry before. Reminiscing is a wonderful thing. It proves that there was a day before today. I think it makes you feel more alive. It stimulates your senses. I've thought about it and I'm excited for some of the people that have just recently come into my life to read this posting. They will get to know me and my past a little bit better. Why the way I am to them today. I've worked on this posting for 3 hours now and it's worth it. It been enlightening to me and I'm grateful for those who have influenced my life and the memories that I have. I love my life it's been extremely rewarding. Thank you for reading this, It came from the heart and I have been blessed with a big one.
