Harder to Breathe



hello y'all. it's been a rough week for me, to say the least, but i really don't want to talk about any of that! it's been snowing like crazy here lately, but suddenly today the clouds broke, the sky turned bright blue, and it got up to 62. tomorrow it's supposed to get to 70, which is very exciting. today i went down to a gully with my friend berry, who some of you probably know as ali from her blog, flightless bird, american mouth. we haven't been down there since last summer, so it was nice to be back there! i took lots of pictures, including the one above. this weekend i tried a raspberry italian soda with cream at my favorite coffee shop and i fell in love. best (non-coffee) drink in the world!!! <3 <3 <3 it was delicious paired with my usual spicy chicken panini on cibatta. mmmmm :) my mouth waters just thinking about that tasty treat. tomorrow is friday, which i am immensely grateful for. and no i'm not going to reference some hidiously awful massacre of a song that has to do with a day that starts with an f because frankly, i'm tired of the attention that awful song is getting. i've been extremely addicted to coldplay lately. and christina perri. most of you have probably heard of christina perri through her song jar of hearts. itunes is releasing a single every week leading up to her new album, lovestrong. i discovered an artist, oh land, who i am beginning to adore. she has a song called son of a gun which i love. that's all i have to say for today... until next time
LISTENING TO: somebody told me- the killers
WISHING: that i didn't feel so blah

You never looked hard enough



hello. i'm blue today, it happens. but today wasn't a bad day, i hung out with one of my best friends, amelia and then i went to my favorite coffee shop with my friend emma. i don't have much to sat... can't really think of anything. i didn't have school yesterday because it was end of term. bleh i'm really not in the mood to blog, but i will post pretty much my favorite lyrics at the moment below. i don't think i've ever related to a song more.
until next time,
listening to: blow- ke$ha
wishing: it was summer
feeling: eeyore-ish

Fix you- Coldplay
When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face
And I
Tears stream down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face
And I
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones And I will try to fix you

Well hey stranger.



Hello everyone! i realized today hey, I have not blogged in a WHILE! the photo above is the cover for christina perri's new single arms, which is my song of the week. if y'all don't know i have a "weeklies" section, over there ---------> on a different note, i don't often use my own photography on here because.. well IDK why i don't but i take a lot of photographs considering i'm my school newspaper's photographer :p so my car is finally MY car.. which takes a lot of drama out of my life. long story short, i was supposed to get my car about 6 months ago but i didn't get it until now. it was pretty great to be able to put all my cd's in the disc changers and all over my back seat :) I did something that excites me- i got new sheets. this would not excite normal people, but i was getting really warm in my hot flannel snowman "let it snow!" sheets so i went and got some funky white blue and purple SOFFFFTTT sheets :) this makes me happy. I also DEEP CLEANED my room the other day and made everything all perty. I was at the store the other day and saw these pretty vintage looking birdcages and it gave me an idea. I'm gonna get a few small birdcages and put them around my room and fill them with stuff, paper cranes, colorful stones, maybe some plants, just make it look cool :) I've had a recent obsession with paper cranes ( which has nothing to do with linger) *ahem cough* but i've been folding them out of old homework, pieces of paper i've written songs on, ect. then i hang them from fishing line from my ceiling over my bed, and Wala, i have tons of paper cranes hanging from my ceiling. My room is pretty cool, if i do say so myself. All the furniture is dark and antique looking with keyholes, i have light green and blue walls, and dark hardwood floors. then i have a brown and blue rug, and a comfy spinny chair. I have about 400 pillows on my bed, and posters of paramore, relient k and paris all over my walls. To top it all off, i have a wall of my photography on black and white shiny paper covering wall. Finally, I have vintage vinyl's all over. mostly, i just have the vinyl's themselves hanging along the top off my walls, but one small wall has my favorite cases all down it. That's my room, in a nutshell. My friend just showed me this awesome cover of "bad romance" by lady gaga, so youtube halestorm's cover of it :)another great lady gaga cover? just dance by disco curtis. i saw them preform it live and it was AWESOME. OOH! I TOTALLY FORGOT TO MENTION THIS! this summer i am seeing relient k at the warped tour! WAHOO! it's a few days before my birthday, so it will be an awesome week :) last year i went to warped and say disco curtis, the pretty reckless, rocketship to the moon, dropkick murphies, and alot more! i didn't know if i was going to go this year, but then relient k announced they were coming so of course i must go!
if you read this, you need to do yourself a favor. go to youtube, and search cubin' with schneck. just do it, and you're welcome :)
tomorrow i'm going shoe shopping and then i have a surprise party.
is it acceptable to post that i have a surprise party?
well it's less than 24 hours and i doubt said suprizee is gonna read this so...
until next time!
LISTENING TO: SAVANNAH- RELIENT K
FEELING: KINDA HYPER, KINDA DIZZY
WISHING: IT WAS TOMORROW! AND IT WAS SUMMER.

I Believe in a thing called Love




so i've been really obsessed with imogen heap and regina spektor lately. don't know why, i've just been in the mood :) i read a new book called matched. it was really good, although kinda hard to stick to. just so ya know, i've decided to make a bunch of origami birds and hang them from my ceiling. we got a huge snow storm here tonight, which means the world is quiet besides the hum of my laptop and my music. i've been writing a lot lately, songs, working on my book, poetry... ect. i've also been drawing a lot.this may be random,but i hope paramore starts recording a new cd soon. and i hope demi lovato releases her new album soon. i'm glad she's doing better. i don't know why i decided to blog tonight, because i have nothing to say. something extremely exciting that has happened is i finally get my car as MY CAR this weekend. first thing i'm going to do is throw a million CD's in it and buy some unnecessary thing to hang from my rear-view mirror.
until next time,
LISTENING TO: sampson- regina spektor
FEELING: tired
WISHING: i could fly
