What the music gave me

the first week of school has been great and awful. for some strange and insane reason the school i go to does not have air conditioning. i live in a desert. it has been sickeningly hot in school this week, and it's getting very hard to be in that environment. so far i like my classes and teachers, and i'm excited for the school year. i'll get to work on my altered book again this year in art, which i'm very excited for. i'm also news editor for our school newspaper and photographer so it's going to be crazy in that class! today we cleaned out the creepy cupboard that hasn't been cleaned out since the school was built, (50's) and we found a hand waxer. it was weird. don't worry though, there were two boxes of wax to go with it. another class i am enjoying is my office aid class. basically, i just answer phones and write street passes and deliver notes to students. i find that sort of work very fun. now on to the music part! i'm running a little low on funds right now so i don't have much new music this week, but i can say that the more songs i get from foster the people's new album, torches, the more i love it. florence + the machine also came out with a new single this week, and it's pretty great. tomorrow i have a free period first period, which means i get to sleep in an extra two hours. technically i could sleep in longer if i wanted, but i want to be awake an hour before school starts. i'm so exhausted. you forget just how tired you can get in the summer because you can always go to bed when you want and wake up when you want. with school, you go to bed when you're done with homework and wake up when you need to go to school. there's no leniency. so, i'm very happy to have a free period. that's all i have to say for today. yesterday was wednesday, so i did update my "weeklies"
until next time,
LISTENING TO: don't stop (color on the walls) - foster the people
FEELING: tired
WISHING: i didn't have pre-calc :P

Changing

it will be an interesting school year. i am front page editor for my school newspaper, so that will keep me quite busy. i am also taking pre-calc and ap gov. other than that, i am taking pretty basic and easy classes. i'm taking 2 art classes, a multimedia design class, a free period, a study hall and english. i think i definitely deserve to have a mostly easy school year after all i went through last year. it's my senior year and i plan to take every experience i can from it. i want to go to football games and school dances and concerts and show up dressed to the nines one day and in sweats the next and feel fine in both. i want to let my worries float away. i want to go to the sunrise breakfasts with all the other seniors and blast music from my car speakers. I want to find someone to fall in love with. i want to stand in the graduation line and cry with all my friends and say i did it. most of all, i want to laugh until i cry, and smile until my muscles hurt.

Stereo Hearts

hello! so school starts tomorrow, and i got my schedule. it looks like i have a pretty great schedule for this year! i'm strangely excited... tomorrow i have to go to all classes and then the hello day assembly, it will be busy and a little crazy~!though sunday's mean that school is the next day i always feel like sunday night is peaceful as long as i don't have any procrastinated homework! just the feeling of sitting in my room with my lamps and lanterns on listening to music freshly showered and picking out my clothes for the week feels so nice. so, now for the world of my passion- music. demi lovato released her album cover for her new album, unbroken, that comes out september 20th. here it is!

i love it and i am so excited for some new ddlovato music!!! what else? i heard the song stereo hearts for the first time this week and i adore it! well, i'm gonna clean up my room and take a shower. until next time...
LISTENING TO: (i am) the love skeptic - the lonely forest
WISHING: my jaw didn't hurt!
FEELING: nervous/calm, excited/scared!

Let this go

school starts on monday. just had to put that out there. i find it to be rather saddening.i have to say, the new promo for psych is kind of amazing, they've always had some great promos but i really adore this one. what else do i have to say? i am starting to read a book called julliet immortal, and so far it's and really great. i went back to school shopping this week and i got a
bunch of really cute stuff :) i got a cute black sheer dress with some flowers on it, 2 pairs of leggings, a ring, 2 pairs of earrings, a baseball style shirt, a long grey t-shirt that says there's no place of rome, 2 paris of jeans, a cropped striped shirt, some sweat pants, black heel ankle boots and an empire waisted dress with bright abstract flowers all over it. i haven't gone shopping for more than one thing in a long time! it's been a long and stressful week though and i'm really exhauseted. my great grandpa who i'm really close to hasn't been doing so well this past week, so it's been really stressful. i think the song that describes my week is turn it off. i can't explain why i relate to music so much, but it really helps me. i can't wait for bones and psych this october. and then chuck! so many good new seasons coming soon! and demi's new album, unbroken on september 20th! school may start on monday, but i have a lot to look forward to.
until next time,
LISTENING TO: grey street- DMB
WISHING: i didn't have a headache
FEELING: exhausted

The Tip of the Iceburg

hello! i'm sitting listening to music, looking at the moon reflect off the lake and waiting for the meteor shower to start :) there's also a beautiful full moon tonight! i spent the day at the beach today, swimming with the fishes and i discovered something: there are frogs! i never knew there are frogs! how did i never know this? how did i not spend my childhood catching frogs and naming them (yes i was a bug loving snail catching worm saving sort of child) i will from now on make it my mission to catch a frog. and release it again, of course. school starts in a little over a week, which is scary. what is awesome about school starting is that i can go clothes and shoe shopping :) let's see... what else have i been up to? oh, i'm watching the awful awful 90's show, twin peaks with my friend emma. it's truly awful, but so bad it's good. demi's new album, unbroken, comes out september 20th. i'm so excited!!!! i've always been a huge demi fan :) i got feathers in my hair, which i've been wanting to do forever (even before they were popular, so it's annoying that everybody has them now!) i think they look really cool. i don't think i've mentioned it before, but i'm really sad that this season is the closer's last season! psych and bones both return in october though, which is very exciting :)
that's all i have to say for now, until next time,
LISTENING TO: vanilla twilight- owl city
WISHING: for nothing, i'm happy :) besides maybe that school would start a week later..
FEELING: content, relaxed

After The Storm

yesterday was my birthday. i had a great birthday, i spent the day watching the so-bad-it's-good- show twin peaks with my friend emma. then i went out to dinner with my family and cake with my grandparents. right now, i am sitting outside on my deck with my new laptop eating chocolate cake and listening to music. as my dad says, well this doesn't suck :)school starts in less than two weeks, which is pretty alarming. my summer was great, but it really feels like it just flew by. i'm officially a huge fan of mumford & sons, which could be a problem :P
i don't have too much to say today, as i always do, so i guess i'll bid you farewell for now.
until next time,
LISTENING TO: roll away your stone- mumford & sons
FEELING: full of birthday cake.
WISHING: time would slow down a bit
