I QUIT

Not really but honestly, I've quit so many things.
Things I've quit:

  • Piano
  • Flute
  • Running
  • Swimming
  • Christianity- more on this later
Things I've added this year
  • Writing
  • Physics
Why did I quit Christianity?
I think it was the gay marriage thing. Honestly, shouldn't any form of love be acceptable? If a God isn't willing to appreciate all forms of love, then honestly He's not going to be my God. 

And then in Exodus, God hardened the Pharoah's heart against Moses. So everything truly is predetermined. I don't really like Calvinism, and it's definitely showing up here.

I know that I should probably still be Christian, but right now, I'm still that all or nothing type of girl. Either a strict Christian or not. If you're Christian and you swear, you might as well not be Christian in my opinion. (I became a friend with a SUPER strict Christian so yeah.)

Note: I support faith of all kinds. I'm not an atheist so much as an alltheist, which is my biggest problem.

The Wampires (not a typo)

Created by yours truly.
Ribbet.com is amazing as usual.

This is my interpretation of The Vamps' "Can We Dance."

Which is basically another One Direction before they get famous.

Which is basically mainstream.

In Which I Can Edit Photos

Found background online.
Added my caption. Recognize it? Guess whose song it's from.

Team (not A)






Wait 'til you’re announced
We’ve not yet lost all our graces
The hounds will stay in chains
Look upon your greatness
That you’ll send
The call I'll send

Call all the ladies out
They’re in there finally
A hundreds jewels on throats
A hundred jewels between teeth
Now bring my boys in
Their skin in craters like the moon
The moon we love like a brother, while he glows through the room
Dancin' around the lies we told
Dancin' around big eyes as well
Even the comatose they don’t dance and tell

[Chorus]
We live in cities you'll never see on screen
Not very pretty, but we sure know how to run free
Living in ruins of the palace within my dreams
And you know, we're on each other's team

I'm kind of over getting told to throw my hands up in the air, so there
So all the cups got broke shards beneath our feet but it wasn’t my fault
And everyone’s competing for a love they won't recieve
Cause what this palace wants is release

[Chorus]
We live in cities you'll never see on screen
Not very pretty, but we sure know how to run free
Living in ruins of the palace within my dreams
And you know, we're on each other's team

I’m kind of over getting told to throw my hands up in the air
So there

I’m kinda older than I was when rebelled without a care
So there


[Chorus]
We live in cities you'll never see on screen
Not very pretty, but we sure know how to run free
Living in ruins of the palace within my dreams
And you know, we're on each other's team

We're on each other's team
And you know, we're on each other's team
We're on each other's team
And you know, and you know, and you know

Unroyally Yours (Lorde)




Started listening to this about two days ago. OBSESSED.

Lorde, I have the hugest girl crush on you.

You're mysterious, unreachable, yet totally relatable.

Bravery



 This, is a freaking genius of a collaboration. Brave is such a BRAVE song.

Sky

[Verse 1:]
Skies are crying, I am watching
Catching tear drops in my hands
Only silence as it's ending
Like we never had a chance
Do you have to make me feel like
There's nothing left of me?

[Chorus:]
You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper

[Verse 2:]
As the smoke clears, I awaken
And untangle you from me
Would it make you feel better
To watch me while I bleed?
All my windows still are broken
But I'm standing on my feet

[Chorus:]
You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper

[Bridge:]
Go run, run, run
I'm gonna stay right here,
Watch you disappear
Yeah, oh
Go run, run, run
Yeah, it's a long way down
But I am closer to the clouds up here

[Chorus:]
You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am

Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Oh Oh
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper

(Like a skyscraper)

Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper

Tay

Love is a ruthless game unless you play it good or right.

Hey, Taylor Swift, it's play it WELL and right, but I guess you can get away with it.

This is the State of Grace; you're my Archille's heel.

The slope is treacherous; this path is reckless.

And all we are is skin and bone, trained to get along. Forever going with the flow, but you're friction.

I thought you'd be here by now, real self.

Come back, come back to me...

Musical Lately

Can't say I agree, Florence, but your song is too good to pass on. Can't understand anything but the English. I love this song anyways. Christina Grimmie, can I declare my girl crush on you?

Hey

Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy,

But here's my blog, so please follow me.

Follow me, call me, email me.
Anything that ends in me because I'm selfish.

Here's some videos now:

Hey Jude

The Beatles are the bomb.

Like they make me happy in ways that Taylor Swift can't.

Man, I wish I were about 40 years older so I could have lived in the Beatles era. I mean honestly, they ROCK.

You know what the definition of rock music is? Anything that has been influenced by the Beatles. No seriously. I was at this lecture on the history of rock and roll and that's what the guy said. He was probably the first dude at Juilliard to listen to rock music and be a piano major at the same time. That's called SKILL.

But Hey Jude, Here Comes the Sun.

You want to watch it with me? Turns out Jude was actually Julian, John Lennon's son. But of course no one else cares about it as much as I do.

Here Comes Valerie, not dressed in white. Man, I forget the rest of Here Comes the Bride.

Music

I listen to everything.
Classical, hard rock, punk, so-called emo, pop, jazz, just not rap. I want to love it, but I really can't listen to rap when I don't understand what's going on. I'm sorry, but my mind just can't process the speed.

  • Taylor Swift
  • Black Veil Brides
  • Gustav Holst's The Planets
  • Philip Glass
  • Paramore
  • Coldplay
  • the Beatles
  • Demi Lovato
  • Carly Rae Jepsen
  • Sara Bareilles
  • Karmin
  • Blessthefall
  • Lights (the musician, not the song, although the song is good too)
  • Avril Lavigne
  • Owl City
  • 78violet (aka Aly and AJ!)
  • Liz Gillies
  • Ed Sheeran (I loved you BEFORE you were famous)
  • Christina Perri
..... and more.

But honestly, I love all music.

Here's to you, Taylor Swift

I secretly loved you five years ago when you weren't cool. 

Okay, maybe love is too strong of a word for knowing some of the lyrics to You Belong with Me and watching your videos. However, keep into consideration that I was young(er). Know that I thought you as a role model.

I knew all the lyrics to Speak Now, to Love Story, to Mine. I was a Swiftie. I sang along to every song on the radio! I knew your height!

Then enter Red. I was do hyped about it. Until I actually listened to it that is. I hated it. We are Never Getting Back Together?
Major ew moment for me! And I knew You were trouble? Way worse?

Where was the country girl Taylor that I knew? And why was this parody person taking her place? And you changed your looks! GASP. 

It was as out of place as this suitcase.

So I didn't listen to you.

Meanwhile, all the girls at school started going to your concerts? Red anyone? Yeah! Taylor Swift is just too good! I know all her songs!

Sure.

I knew about Ed Sheeran before he was mainstream, and now you're telling me he had a duet with Taylor?

I'm not that behind...

Until the Everything has Changed music video came out.

Everything in my life was changing. And here was a song that made me happy. I missed you so much Taylor. Especially the little kiddy songs that made me smile.

Taylor, you shouldn't be angry. I don't think it suits you.

I listened to the rest of your album. I love All Too Well. And don't worry, I didn't search up "why is Taylor Swift too tall" or "how many guys has Taylor Sift dated" or anything. I'm too loyal to do that. Haha.

But I still can't listen to the singles on your album. Give me The Moment I Knew instead.

Here's to you, Taylor Swift.

(Does anyone recognize the book title reference I made? It's Here's to you, Rachel Robinson by Judy Blume)

And I'm getting to understand your boy drama... although not on your level. Maybe in another life...
