Falcons Get Home Field Advantage for Playoffs!!!

And with a 13-2 record we are sitting pretty for the playoffs!!!
I know that a lot of folks are doubting the falcons, but the reason why they are consistenly winning is because the amount of discipline they have been showing on the field. Not only do they have the best record at the moment but they have the least amount of penalties. Plus, I am sure that Matt Ryan is as smart as Tom Brady.

Charlie McDonnell (Charlieissocoollike)-Duet with Myself

This is my favorite video on youtube. Whenever I'm sad, this song picks me up, it's just so cute and a good reminder of all the reasons why we should love ourselves (...butnotinthatway). Maybe all the things that we loath about our bodies or personalities etc should be what we love. BTW I miss the old Charlie, back when he was awkward and nerdy and talked about how his zits bothered him. I think the reason why everyone loved Charlie so much was because we each saw a little of our nerdy selves in Charlie...as hokie as that sounds.
 
This is just a great Charlie moment haha

December 21st

Welp, It's officially 11:15 Dec. 21st, I'm alive, hopefully you are alive (as opposed to a zombie during an invasion), and I see no solar rain flares as I write this, cheers! We survived!
HAPPY WINTER SOLSTICE!!!
Now go out buy those Christmas presents that you weren't counting on getting ;)

Carolina Herrera + Band of Outsiders and more ooh-la-la!

This is not meant to be a promo, but I am writing this post because of how excited I am that I just bought items from renowned designers through Target and get this----ALL FOR UNDER 100 bucks!!! I'm just sooo giddy for giving presents this Christmas! ---because nothing feels better than cashmere at a great price!
I adore Karlie Kloss, but I kind of think the Target ads with her are a little scary...but that's just me.

Ed Sheeran-Drunk

This video is wonderful because...cats.
No seriously, I am considering teaching my cat how to play mario cart and guitar with me after watching this video. Maybe later we can go to Chevelles???

Weird Dream

Last night I had a dream of a modern day miss Havisham, from Great Expectations. Everyday at twenty to nine she would drive up in a pink convertable and sit in the McDonalds parking lot in a wedding dress, crying, and eating a Big Mac. A black guy (who was probably Pip) would jump up from the behind the car, put a large stereo on his shoulder and shuffle around.
Oh Ms. Havisham, why u so creepy????

American Horror Story: Murder House

My back has been out all week and I haven't been able to walk around or do anything. Instead I invested my time into watching the first season of American Horror Story on Netflix.
...And I have to say, I was really impressed! I am currently irritated with Ryan Murphy for destroying Glee...but he did a really great job with AHS. It has just the right amount of creepy, tortured romance, perversion, twists, and drama. Overall, I have to give a great rating to a story where I am almost in tears for the "monster" bad guy. In fact, I feel a little sad for finishing it today :(

While I did thoroughly enjoy the first season of American Horror Story, I'm currently debating whether or not to watch the second season. Being a practicing Catholic, I detest whenever a show peverts my religion for entertainment...and also, I had heard it wasn't that good. So I'm not sure if I'll watch that one. I do however, thouroughly recommend the first season (that is, if you don't might getting a little scared).

I Drift Among the Dreamers

I wrote this last year, while feeling a little lost...

I drift Among the Dreamers
By Sarah Keling

Like the seeds of a dandelion
I am swept up by the wind
And drift among the dreamers,
High above the strong defenders and rocks of earth.

I am blown about by the overseers
But am beckoned back to whisper ideas softly into their ears
-and dance playfully about their feet.

I scatter across the fields of creators
And guide their nimble fingers.
I brush against their stems
And arrange images of kings before their senses.

As I am guided by the swaying breeze
I reach for the stars
Stretching for the horizon
But instead fall peacefully upon a blade of grass

Unshaken

Until again I am picked up by the wind
And drift among the dreamers...

Selah Sue-Raggamuffin

This is cool, it's like Ed Shereen meets Amy Winehouse...and it's really, really, fantastical!

Sara Sampaio: The New Adriana Lima?

Well, I don't think that Adriana Lima is replaceable, but some are saying Sara Sampaio did not walk in the new VS show because she bears such a resembalance to the head spokes model.
But I feel like we will be seeing more of Sara in the future (Afterall, Miranda Kerr didn't make her first audition for the VS show either). I have a feeling that Adriana will be passing her spokewoman wings to Doutzen or Candace...since she didn't have any wings in this show or over the top flashy costumes. Either way, Adriana is awesome and displays her dedication by showing up after giving birth to her second baby only two months prior to the show. I can't wait to watch her rock the runway this week!

Steffaloo-Can't you See

I love this song so much.

Of Monsters and Men-Little Talks

To all of my indie friends, this song is probably ancient, but I cannot seem to get this song out of my head today...at all.
This music video reminds me of Zelda meets Batman meets Atilla the Hunn.

Rainy Daze






Salome, A Cute and Cuddly Opera

There are some really enchanting, exihilerating, and incredibly romantic operas out there, but few are as warm and fuzzy as the german opera Salome.
Salome is just an easy going, stripper princess whose romantic advances are rejected by John the Baptist. In retaliation, she orders John the Baptist's head to be brought to her on a platter...and if that isn't enough she begins making out with his head on stage...while bathing in his blood. Nothing quite says Je t'aime like uuuuh that.
Oh yeah, the executioner is randomly butt naked...

But in all seriousness, this show is really creepy. Like...stomach upsetting creepy.

The Buzz Custom Computer Virus

A few months ago I tried to get on the internet with my laptop, at first things seemed pretty normal, my homepage appeared to be normal and google also appeared to be normal, but suddenly the page was hijacked and I was redirected to custombuzz, a site about bicycles? Frustrated I rebooted my browser. Over and Over I tried to go on the web, but each time I was redirected to custombuzz. Frustrated I sat my computer down and didn't pick it back up until months later to skype a friend. Just for kick and giggles, I got on the internet and I was able to surf the net! No problems what so ever! I just thought the computer must have resolved the issue itself? Well, tonight I was getting on the internet, and the pesky virus came back...everywhere I went custombuzz popped up and I was unable to do anything! And then I thought of something!
Go to Start
Go to the control panel
Go to Network and Internet
Go to Internet Option
Go to the Security Tab
Go to Restricted Sites
Click on Sites and enter www.custombuzz.com  (I suggest copying and pasting the url into the field).
And then click "close" or "apply" or "ok" (or whatever is there)
It WORKED!!!!
I am a GENIOUS!!! :)
(I also recommend a security scan and/or liveupdate)
Hope this helps for anyone that may be experiencing this virus or any virus that is similar to this nature.

Crystallize-Lindsey Stirling

Today I was taking a shower with Pandora playing in the background and Crystallize by Lindsey Stirling came on the radio. I was entranced. When I looked up the video, I became further captivated by not only the talent that Lindsey Stirling has on the violin, but also by the fact that she can dance like a ballerina while playing it. Whoah.
Classic meets dubstep. Beautiful.

Cara Delevigne!

Into the Wild

"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived."-Henry David Thoreau
