Fri--Happy--day!

LOVE that Train continues to make music that puts me in a great mood!! This song is their second single from their newest CD "Save me, San Francisco." I will be listening to it on repeat at work so I can keep up the good mood on this Friday! Excited to celebrate my bf's birthday this Satuday in NYC and again poolside in NJ on Sunday!

Have a great weekend everyone!!

Day 06 - A song that reminds of you of somewhere

Song that reminds me of somewhere: ""Good Day" Angels and Airwaves




This song reminds me of my high school days--sitting in my best friend Robin's backyard, music blasting, lounging by the pool, tanning for hours and eating everything in sight. Ahh, the good old days! Angels and Airwaves and Avril Lavigne were played on repeat on her old school cd player. GOOD times.

Enjoy!

noteworthy

{Mahatma Gandhi}

Day 05 - A song that reminds you of someone

Song that Reminds me of Someone: "Signed, Sealed, Delivered" by Stevie Wonder



This song will forever remind me of my roommate and best friend of four years. We've lost connection since college ended but whenever this song comes on I always think of her and smile. One of the funniest nights of my life.

Enjoy!

Can't Tell me Nothin'

Can't Tell Me Nothin' from Zach Galifianakis

its official. Zach Galifianakis is one of the funniest people ever.

Day 04 - A song that makes you sad

Song that makes me sad: "Transatlanticism" by Death Cab for Cutie



This song was my "go to" when I was feeling down. I can recall the many times my roomie and I just sat up listening to this song-- reflecting, crying, letting all our emotions out. I think its safe to say this song is quite sad but so beautiful.

Enjoy...

Day 03 - A song that makes you happy

Song that Makes me Happy: "Sleepyhead" by Passion Pit.



Honestly, every song by Passion Pit makes me happy. They're sound is just so fun and upbeat! I don't think its possible to not feel like you want to dance around in your underoos when they're on!

ENJOY!

Mumford and Sons

VH1 TV Shows | Music Videos | Celebrity Photos | News & Gossip

Of course these boys from London would be freakin adorable! Check out Mumford and Sons' (my new favorite band) new single "Little Lion Man."

Day 02 - Your least favorite song

So I skipped a few days with this game--oops! My laptop is its death bed so I will not be able to be as efficient as I like, oh well!

here's my numero 2!

Least Favorite Song: Jack Johnson "Sitting, Waiting, Wishing"



Ok, so there are plenty of songs I can list for this one, but for some reason the artist that immediately popped into my head was Jack Johnson. I don't know why, but I cannot stand this man. His songs bore me. I don't mind "Banana Pancakes" but this one seriously gets me cringing. CANNOT STAND HIM.

Cosmic Love

This song is soo Good. I am in desperate need of some new music in my life. I find myself skipping half of what my iPod plays which sorta depresses me. How do I get sick of music?? Well I suppose its a new time in life for me--change is needed everywhere.

This song by Florence + The Machine called "Cosmic Love" is just perfection. Intense lyrics and a perfect beat to go along with it. Repeat please!!

Day 01- Your Favorite Song

Favorite Song: Something Corporate "Wait"



This is hard, because I love too many songs to just pick one; but this is definitely one of my favorite songs EVER.

"Get over your hill and see what you find there,
With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair."

I am....

I am timid
And I am oversensitive
I am a lioness
I am tired and defensive
You take me in your arms
And I fold into you
I have insecurities
You show me I am beautiful

Love me or leave me just take it or leave it
It's not that I'm needy just need you to see me
Take me, free me, see through to the core of me
Take me, free me, there will be no more pretending

I am temperamental
And I have imperfections
And I am emotional
I am unpredictable
I am naked
I am vulnerable
I am a woman
I am opening up to you

Love me or leave me, just take it or leave it
It's not that I'm needy, just need you to see me
Take me, free me, see through to the core of me
Take me, free me, there will be no more pretending

Now I stand before you with my heart in my hands
I'm asking you to take me just the way that I am

Please lay down your arms
Do you know me?
Make me feel safe from harm

Oh just take me, free me, see through to the core of me
Take me, free me, there will be no more pretending

I am temperamental

And I have imperfections
And I am emotional

There'll be no more pretending

-Christina Aguilera "I Am"

And If we die, we die together...

Muse "Neutron Star Collision (love is forever)"

Hoesntly, I am hit or miss with Muse. Sometimes I really love their stuff and other times I am kinda bored. This song was actually really catchy from the start---and of course it had to be the song for Twilight's newest release Eclipse. The song does fit the movie and its theme very well. Bella and Edward would die for each other. The song totally makes sense and the clips in the video made me kinda like this some more. I know I know---I'm lame. Either way, enjoy this lovely tune.

The Social Network

When I heard they were making a movie about facebook that was starring Justin Timberlake, I thought--"Oh, boy--what's this mess going to be about?" But after watching the very visually pleasing trailer I was impressed. From the choir rendition of 'Creep' to the what seems to be high mature acting of Jesse Eisenberg, I am pretty pumped for this movie. It looks creative and interesting and I am on board!

inspired.

Moving on up to the East Side!

I shouldnt start without saying my 4th of July weekend was lots of fun!! My 24th birthday bash in the city was a blast. It was nice to have so many friends come out and celebrate with me :) (Thank you!) Then we celebrated the 4th with one of the most kick-ass bbq's ever. It was soo delicious and patriotic. I enjoyed watching the fireworks by the Jersey Shore.

On the 4th my bf and I attended his cousin's wedding which was again a night of boozing and eating an unhealthy but an amazing amount. This wedding was a lovely Italian/Jewish collaboration! It was my first Jewish wedding and I loved it! They're traditions are so much fun and I think a chuppah is soo pretty to get married under. MAZEL! The cocktail hour was insane. I inhaled an serious about of sushi, shrimp cocktail, and raw clams. I may hate fish but I love my shellfish. My bf's cousin is all about enjoying life. The amount of shots I took this entire weekend is kinda gross but it was so worth it. Cafe Patron was the shot of choice on Sunday and I have now become a serious fan. SOO GOOD! Anyway, the night just continued with dancing, drinking, and celebrating a seriously adorable couple. Congrats Greg and Melissa!!

After this wonderfully jam packed weekend I made a move back to NYC with a few of my items for the time being. As I was packing and preparing I realized how surreal this all was. I have been talking about moving for months and months and now its happening. As much as I am excited, there will be things about home that I will certainly miss. Here's a few:

1) BBQs with the fam...dinner with my family is such a treat and I am happy that I am close enough to see them when I want, but I will miss my BBQ feasts with them a lot.
2) the jersey shore. I haven't been in a WHILE and now that time will only be prolonged. I love the sun, sand, waves--I need to own a house there one day.
3) My car--I will miss driving every and anywhere.
4) My bed...I seriously have an obsession with my bed from home. Its not even THAT comfortable--it just brings me peace at night.
5) last but CERTAINLY NOT THE LEAST: my family. I was used to being surrounded by them all the time. I am such a family person and I am realizing it the more and more I grow older. I don't think I am the type of person to make big moves. My rents and sisters are the most important people in my world and I have to know I can be there for them when they need me.

On that note, I am loving my NYC apartment so far. Its fun and cute and the area is adorable. I am excited for family get togethers and friend sleepovers in the future!!
