I Am Loving 'Living Thing'!!!

P T R BJ RN ND J HN
are musical geniuses in my book!

They're new CD titled 'Living Thing' really does suite the experimental sounds of their songs where you would really describe each song to be a living thing! They are all alive with beats, claps, sounds, and lyrics that at least keep me in a daze :) I love it! Good job guys, I definitely plan on going out and buying this CD and adding it to my small list of CD's I own (I mean, who buys CD's now a days?) and I would like to own it in Vinyl, I need a Vinyl record player first :).

Well I tried gathering some of the songs from the CD here so that you guys can have a preview! If you visit the band's Myspace page you can listen to the entire CD. Hope you guys enjoy the songs! Until next time!!


The Return Of DeGraw

I love Gavin DeGraw, he's got to be one of my favorite artists of all time! He's just so genuine and it shows through his music!! I came across this video today on Imeem and I had to post it up, I can't wait to here his new CD.


Here's one of his new songs from his upcoming CD called 'Free' it's called Stay.


I absooooooooolutely love it! ^_^
Enjoy it guys!!
Make sure to go get his CD March 31st! :)

What Is Going On So Far...

..Things are going pretty good for me so far! I mean, March has brought certain unexpected twists and turns to my life, actually you could say they were some what expected just not something I was wishing for! What I am referring to is the lose of the friendship I had with some good friends of mine, I somewhat saw it coming, I just wasn't expecting for it to come so soon. But with that said, I feel like I have mourned it enough, everything in life happens for a reason, I've always been one to say "you loose one friend and you gain three!" Meaning that life is full of changes full of opportunities to gain new friends when you've lost some old ones, life is a constant cycle and we shouldn't mourn for those whose friendships with us go down the wrong path but take it as a sign that we didn't have enough of a strong friendship to build a lasting relationship from! With that said, March has been bringing me some really good, fond memories! :) The Britney Concert was very amazing!!!


St. Patrick's day was pretty interesting, tried attending a Shoe fashion show with my friend, Stephanie, but little did we know the show started at 1 in the morning so we ended up having to leave early! I also had a shot by the name of Washington Apple at Flanigan's which was very delicious! Went to go see the Knowing (which was pretty interesting) and drove all the way to Pompano Beach all on my own xD which felt like quite an accomplishment! Got hooked on a show called The United States Of Tara on Showtime which is awesome and am currently enjoying the company of my uncle, aunt, and little cousin who moved to Miami from Canada. Things seem pretty good! I really can't complain, we'll see what else March has in store for me :)

"It's All Fun & Games Until Someone Loses An Eye"

I saw this short film on IFC (Independent Film Channel) the other night, It's about a guy and a girl who are always hurting each other's feelings that is until things escalate!

The name of the film is Spider, it's written by Nash Edgerton & David Michôd. Directed by Nash Edgerton. I posted it so you guys can check it out! Let me know what you think of it! I thought it was pretty insane...in a good way!

Welcoming March :) And All It's Wonderful Events!

The other day just playing music off my computer while Stephanie was here we came across a song that came with my computer by an artist by the name of Luciana Souza. Today I decided to look up some of her stuff and I was amazed, I really liked this woman's music! Who would of thought music already programed into my computer would be any good, but no her stuff is AMAZING!! I especially became very attracted to this song of hers called Waters Of March, it reminds me of Michael Buble, a female version of Michael Buble, very peaceful, sexy, and intriguing! :) Here is the song for those of you who would like to listen to it! I am loving it at the moment, listening to it as I type!



Waters Of March - Luciana Souza


Moving on to talk about March! So many good things are coming up for me in this wonderful month! The month is going to kick off with the Britney Spears Circus Concert which I am attending this Saturday with my friends, Alfredo and Vanessa. I am very excited about it, I even made us these designs for the shirts we will be wearing the day of the concert, I incorporated our names into some of our favorite Britney songs, Oops...I Did It Again, I'm A Slave 4 U, and If U Seek Amy.

The funny thing was that while making the shirts I realized I have always been spelling the word "oops" incorrectly X_x I've been spelling it "opps" with 2 p's lol I liked my opps though :( I've caught myself a few times trying to write opps instead oops since I noticed, and even though a part of me wants to fix it so that I write it correctly another part of me thinks its a cute flaw...haha..oh well!

As for the rest of March, I have Funkshion to look forward to, going to be going once again with my friend Stephanie and some other friends of ours. :) I look forward to the dressing up part and just being in the audience of these fashion shows from some famous and some up and coming artists! And also later on in the month I will be hitting up Ft. Lauderdale to check out AI, was there yesterday, and I really liked the environment and I've been thinking a lot about moving over there with Steph, I really want to do somethign like that I think I need that right now in my life, to move away and be on my own, providing for myself, beign the adult I am slowly gorwing into :) and Ft. Lauderdale would be an amazing place to do just that, the surroundings over there are very old school Florida yet they have their up-to-date hot spots as well and the beach is awesome!!! Plus it's not very far from home so if I were to get home sick, it's a short drive away, I can visit family and friends and be their quickly! So will see! March seems liek it will be quite the month for me, I'll try coming back when I get the chance to keep blogging about what's going on here and there, will definitely try and blog the day after the Britney concert let you guys know how it went. I hope you all take care and have a very safe weekend!!

The Oscars Blew Me Away!

I won't lie, when I heard Hugh Jackman was hosting the 2009 Oscars I was a bit skeptical about how they would turn out, not that I have anything against Hugh (I love him!), it's just normally the people who host the Oscars are top notch comedians or actors that are well known for their humor, so really I would of never paired Hugh with the Oscars, that is until I watched them tonight! I think Hugh was wonderful and that's coming from someone who sadly missed a big part of the show (I had forgotten they were on tonight lol). I enjoyed how he was able to throw his musical background into the mix and make this year's Oscars the most musically enjoyable to date! I especially enjoyed the number he did along side Beyonce, it was so qwirky and funny how they performed a ton of famous songs from musicals in a combo. I posted the best video I could find online of the performance below, enjoy it! :)



I was also very happy to see Kate Winslet win Best Performance by an Actress she deserves it so much! And her speech was so beautiful I love the way she expresses herself, lol and her father's whistle was hilarious! Here's the video of her acceptance speech...


THE WINNERS OF THE NIGHT WERE:

(Note to self: I need to watch The Reader, Doubt, Slumdog Millionaire, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, and Milk.)

My Picks For Fall Fashion 2009

WILLIAM RAST

Justin Timberlake's fashion line caught my eye this season because of its punk essence. I loved the blacks, the greys, the blazers, the acid washed and ripped jeans. But most importantly I loved the studded leather jacket, I want one lol and the shoes with the fringes are very very CALIENTE!!!! I would love me a pair of those too! :)


TROVATA

Trovata won me over with their green shawl peacoat looking piece, I absolutely loved it. I like how they layered their pieces even using vests and sweaters mixed with pants tucked into boots. I really love that look with the tied up boots, its very ME! lol


CALVIN KLEIN

Calvin did it up with full sophistication as always. Very sexy long coats and one colored suits. Some what 'Matrix-ish', Neo move out of the way, tehre is a new man in town and his name is CK. lol I really enjoyed these pieces specially the one with the nylon coat!


Z ZEGNA

As you can see I really liked Z Zenga. This was the first time I heard of this designer and I have to say I fell quickly Everythign from the hats to the coats to the jackets with the studs and the belted peacoat, the pants, and the suit where the top is all tucked away into the pants really caught my eye as something I'd like to rock! Good job Z Zenga, you have a fan in me!!
