Complete Bliss.

There are some nights that I am in complete bliss with everything around me. Tonight is one of them. After finishing my last week of classes for this semester, I grabbed my cheetah print beret and ipod for a walk downtown for a bottle of wine. The walk reminded me of Brooklyn and how independent and comfortable I felt with myself and my surroundings. It was perfect.

So here I am with my cheetah beret, a glass of red wine, a candle lit and Rolling Stones playing in my head. Nothing can break my mood tonight.

Button your lip baby
Button your coat
Let's go out dancing

Have We Met?

Do you ever have a desire to meet someone new? I get this feeling a lot and it has been overwhelming lately. I have the strongest desire to learn about someone over a cup of coffee in a coffee shop I have never been to. I want to ask the most random and generic questions and then high five him when we agree on Jackson Hole being the most perfect place to escape to. Learning about someone comes with so much excitement, butterflies, giggles and waves of that feeling of your stomach dropping to the ground. Oh, it is just the best! I am getting all giddy just thinking about it. I just want someone new that loves to teach and learn.

What new things do you crave for yourself?

Celebrities Using Twitter, How I Love Thee.

Happy Wednesday! Since interning at a social media marketing firm, I have grown a serious love for how companies, brands, celebrities, and everyone uses different social media platforms. Twitter has to be my all time favorite -- it is quick, simple, promotes conversation between users more than any other social media, and brands, companies, and celebrities love to interact with you. Most of us have probably experienced the joy of having a company or artist retweet us or even reply with a quick little note. I know I have and I won't lie, it kind of makes my day every time. But I cannot say that I have ever tweeted about an artist not making enough music then getting a reply from that artist with a new song. Have you? Yeah, didn't think so. Well, for some Twitter user she or he did.

After heckling M.I.A over Twitter about lacking on her music game, M.I.A quieted down the fan by replying back to the user with a link to a new, unreleased song called "AtTENTion." The fan has since uploaded it on YouTube for us all to hear. Check it out below.

Does it get better than that? Seriously.
(I heart Twitter)

Don't Save Me.

In my next life I hope to be a singer preferably the fourth (fifth if we're counting the drummer) long-haired member/sister of HAIM. HAIM is a "nu-folk–meets–nineties-R&B" sister pop group from California. The group does not even have a full-length album out yet, but their EP called Forever has been the best thing I have heard in a while. They are fun, girly, cool with haunting voices, relatable lyrics, good beats, and cool hair. They just released a new video today for "Don't Save Me" and its a class act. Listen, watch and enjoy. 

Now I regret cutting my hair and not staying with the bass. Damn.

Save(d) The Date.

The night before my birthday, I lit my fall candles, brewed up some tea and snuggled in pillows and blankets to watch Save The Date. After drooling over the trailer and posters, I finally saw it and it was all I was expecting.

The film was such an easy, funny love story that really consumed me. I easily fell in love with Lizzy Caplan's character, Sarah,  and everything about her -- her strong will, her self-confidence, her outfits, her cat, her home, her acceptance of herself and her strength to never settle. She kind of became the person I hope to be like when I grow up.

All of the other characters were well-defined people who knew what they wanted and they were just as endearing as well. I was a little creeped out by Mark Webber's character, Jonathan, for a little. I'm not sure why, but he seemed to be hiding something from my girl Sarah. Or maybe I was just being over protected of my dream self. Who knows. He redeemed himself by taking her to an aquarium and then dancing to records in her living room.

Overall, the movie was simple with a few subtle twist and turns with a main lady that is hard not to root for.

Update.

Wow, haven't I just been the worst blogger on the planet? With that begin said, I have a lot of things to say today so they may all run wild on this one post or I may spread them out...we shall see.

First, Happy Holidays! It it finally Holiday Season and I am so excited. I traveled back to New Jersey yesterday and immediately felt a warmth inside of me when I saw my house and my mom peeking through the laundry room window. Dorothy was definitely right about there being no place like home. Atta girl.

Second. I have seen so many movies lately that I need to give some reviews of. This I will probably have in other posts, so be patient. (if you care, that is)

Third. Have you been happy lately? I have been so happy lately and every one I know has been really grateful and ecstatic about everything. It feels good and I hope you are experiencing the same thing. Also, a little shout out to my friends who have been a really good support system for each other. If anyone is in need of some amazing friends, I got a few I could lend for a little.

Fourth. I am officially 21.

Bat's Mouth.

The caves of our mouths are forest darknessAnd the air in between is overflowingAnd the rushing wolverine flies past his shiny, shiny teethAnd she is kind, he is free, full of knowing
She is sureShe is sure
The caves of our mouths are bear's belliesAnd the air in between is spewing cometsAnd the dancing centaur queen flies past her tiny, tiny teethHe is kind, she is free and wants to show him
She is sureShe is sureShe is sure

Happy November!

I may be five days late on this but it is finally November...

Queue the beards, the mugs of coffees, the scarfs, the leaves, the chills, the big coats, the loads of blankets, the family times, the no shaving, the maroons and browns and burnt oranges, the football games, the sad music that is some how so comforting, the cuddling, the kissing, the gift giving, the start of holidays, the movie nights, the cords, the big sweaters, the fireside talks, the birthdays of myself and friends. Queue the good times. 

I also want to give my thoughts and prayers to those who have been affected by Hurricane Sandy. I am from New Jersey and have been devastated by what has happened across the state, especially to my friends down at the Shore. Those who have been to the Shore know the unforgettable memories that being at the Shore sprouts and it saddens me deeply that the places we all know and love are not there anymore. But we do know this, we are from New Jersey and Jersey is strong and Jersey will come back better than ever.

I also want to give my thoughts and prayers to my friends in New York and Rhode Island. The two other places I have called home in my life.

East Coast love to all the states.

Save The Date.

There are certain movie trailers that make me weak in the knees, mostly with anxiety over how long I have to wait to see the whole movie. I watch them over and over again and mark a little note on to my calendar of their VOD and release date. The latest trailer to hit me in the knees is 'Save The Date.' (What an appropriate title, right?) IFC snagged 'Save The Date' after its premiere at this year's Sundance Film Festival. The cast is filled with indie film favorites including Lizzy Caplan, Allison Brie, Martin Starr, Geoffrey Arend, and Mark Webber.

Trailer:




I am most excited to see Lizzy Caplan in her long-awaited break out role. The girl kills every film she is in with her flawless acting and awesome use of sarcasm and humor. I really wouldn't mind being her friend.

Also, how adorable are those sketches?

Get Lost.

Fall break is finally here! All the colleges kids have raced home to be pampered with home cooked meals, relaxation, and the company of family. What is better than that? I still have one more night till I get to do all these things but boy am I licking my chops. Tonight, however, will be just as spectacular as hanging out with my mom and cat. I'm seeing Searching for Sugar Man right before seeing my beloved Cat Power. Ah! So excited! 

What are your plans for this weekend? I dare you to experience some culture. Go to a show, see an independent, go to a museum, anything! Get lost.

The Perks of Being a Wallflower.

This past weekend I went to my beloved Cinemapolis alone and snuggled up to The Perks of Being a Wallflower. In high school, I was in love with the novel. I had a crush on Charlie and imagined myself growing up to be Sam's best friend. Everything the characters said in the book was exactly what I wanted to hear. Needless to say, I brushed off old Smiths albums from record stores and sank away into myself...just as I did this past weekend.

As a sat alone in Theater Five with a small popcorn, I began to get a little nervous. Here I was -- twenty years old and a senior in college about to watch a storyline that resonated so much with my fourteen- seventeen-year-old self. The self that frequently stayed home on the weekends to listen to bands that were too sophisticated for her. The self that read Charles Bukowski and Sylvia Plath and was scared yet comforted to think that these might be her only friends. And the self that was never quite cool enough because it wasn't cool to publish poetry that you write (or to even write poetry). But this movie made me miss that me and I never thought anything could do that to me. 

The Perks of Being a Wallflower is the type of film that will leave you dizzy while you smile and tear up at the same time. You may even leave the theater feeling like you are right next to your high school self. 

In The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Charlie's favorite Smiths song is Asleep. Mine in high school is below:

Thursday Inspiration.

"If you want to succeed in your life, remember this phrase. The past does not equal the future. Because you failed yesterday; or all day today, or a moment ago, or for the last six months; the last 16 years, or the last fifty years of life doesn’t mean anything…all that matters is what are you going to do, right now."

▼

  Anthony Robbins

“One’s Personal Legend is what you have always wanted to accomplish. Everyone, when they are young, knows what their Personal Legend is. At that point in their lives, everything is clear and everything is possible. They are not afraid to dream, and to yearn for everything they would like to see happen to them in their lives. But, as time passes, a mysterious force begins to convince them that it will be impossible for them to realize their Personal Legend… whoever you are, or whatever it is that you do, when you really want something, it’s because that desire originated in the soul of the universe. It’s your mission on earth."

The Alchemist

Favorite Movie.

What is your favorite movie? I know everyone hates this questions, but I truly believe that everyone has the one movie they just cannot get enough of. I hold my favorite so dear to my heart that sometimes I say another movie just so people do not criticize it. My favorite movie since high school has always been Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Yes, this is a very common answer but for me, this movie has a lot of meaning in it and behind it.

I got the DVD for Christmas my sophomore year in high school. It was the first item on my list and I had never even seen it. I read one article about it, watched the trailer, and was immediately sucked in. That Christmas, I spent the entire day watching Eternal Sunshine on repeat while my family tried on all their new clothes and prepared Christmas dinner. I was absolutely struck with emotion and most importantly, thought. I had never seen a movie that I did not know the ending to. I had to really get involved with the characters. Most movies I watched at this time were generic and romantic comedies with the same ending and the same characters just played by another actress.

But not Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Charlie Kaufman's screenplay is unique and confusing with characters that are desperate but beautiful human beings. Michael Gondry's vision is absolutely breathtaking. I could watch Eternal Sunshine with the sound off and still have the same emotions I feel listening to Joel and Clementine.

So, what is your favorite movie? How does it make you feel? Where were you the first time you saw it?

Nobody Walks.

Tonight I snuggled up with my big floral pillow, purple blanket, lit some candles, drank some tea, and put all my attention on Nobody Walks. Nobody Walks is Ry Russo-Young's third feature film that he wrote with the help of Lena Dunham (Tiny Furniture and Girls). It premiered back at Sundance and is loaded with a great cast: Olivia Thirlby, John Krasinski, Justin Kirk and Rosemarie Dewitt. The film is so visually pleasing, even so that I found myself constantly zoning in on the aesthetics and not paying any attention to the story line at hand. I think this is due to the over told story of the sexual desire to have another when you cannot. Some of these stories are told amazingly well (See, Last Night), but then you have films like Nobody Walks that seem like a jumble of thoughts, cravings, and characters that it all just gets kind of old real fast. I had so much hope in this film with a such a talented cast, brilliant screenwriters, beautiful scenes, thrilling trailer. Everything just kind of fell flat for me.

But go judge for yourself, Nobody Walks hits theaters October 12 or check it out on iTunes.

Kinfolk - Autumn

As stated once before, I love Kinfolk. Their sense of style with life's most beautiful things always make me melt in my chair. Today, Kinfolk released a video for Volume Five. Volume Five is a continued celebration of life and small gatherings that are focused on Autumn. The video they have created is absolutely beautiful  and simple and really showcases the simplicity and homey-ness of the textures, colors, and beings of Autumn. Watch below as my forest green grandpa sweater and I go and attempt to make some acorn squash!

Clarity, Apples, Autumn and Feist!

It is the most wonderful time of the year ladies and gentlemen! It is the start of the Ithaca's Applefest. If you have never experienced this wonderful celebration of all things apple, then you are not starting your autumn off right and you are not a human being. Applefest is such a treat for us Ithacans. I cannot wait to have some hard apple cider, a pumpkin doughboy and get a huge bag of apples. Ah! I'm so excited. Pictures to come! 

Applefest could not have come at a better time than right now. Sometimes I lose myself while I am at school and the past week has been one of these times. I need a big pie of clarity for my mind and get myself back to center. I have always believed that college can sometimes skew the person you really are based on stereotypes, constantly being around people, all while trying to find out what the hell you are going to do with yourself. Thank god for autumn and its renewing capabilities on me. 

I know it'll need to go from good to worse
Living in the past begins the ending first
All I want is a horizon line
Get some clarity following signs
I'll keep on the path that leads up to the clearing
Keep some distance while the words comes in so near

A Type.

Do you have "a type"? You know, that long list of qualities that your significant other needs to have for you to even look at them. Or maybe it is just simple qualities like wears flannels, sometimes likes beanies, and has great facial hair that gets a little damp with coffee each morning. Oh and has a belly chuckling laugh and spends a significant amount of his paycheck on concert tickets. Obviously, I have a type. But is having a type silly? Is it even true? I know for me, at least, I have yet to find my type. Does anyone find it? Or do we change our types to fit the people we meet? Or do our types just change?

Too many questions?

Tea Time.

Every night my roommate/best friend, Melly, and I have what we old ladies like to call: tea time. We will look at each other and nod and then one of us will get the kettle on the stove while the other collects the tea and the mugs (I have my "Tea Time" mug from Pottery Barn and Melly has her adorable Alice in Wonderland mug). We then will take our tea to go in one of our rooms or, if the night is right, outside on our porch or to our neighbors house. If I had to name a favorite part of my day, tea time with Melly would be it.

Tonight, we came across this adorable illustration of Why Tea Is So Very Magical and quickly fell in love with it. My favorite reason is "it fills your stomach when you're so sad that you can't consume anything else." Melly's favorite reason is "most cultures have some form of tea --> some people read their tea leaves --> fortunes!"

What is your favorite?

Rainy Day.

“She looks into me, the unknowing heart to see if I love. She has confidence she forgets under the clouds of her eyelids. Her head falls asleep in my hands where are we. Together inseparable. Alive, alive. He alive, she alive and my head rolls through her dreams.”

- Paul Eluard (She Looks Into Me)

Happy Day.

Hi. I hope you all have a good day. You should find a porch to sit on and drink some coffee and sing some Cat Power. When it gets cooler at night and the sun is getting a little sleepy but not too sleepy, you should go for a walk, too. Yeah, you should go do that. Maybe there will be a cute little boy sitting on a wooden fence that will want to talk to you.


Happy Day!

Monday.

Happy Monday! My stuffy nose can definitely tell you that fall is coming. As the weather gets colder and colder, it can be hard to get out of bed so here are some things to hopefully make your Monday a little less-Mondaylike.

I'm in love with the band Team Me and the track "Me and the Mountain", which is featured in the trailer for Liberal Arts.

Last night, Flying Lotus released an unfinished remix of Frank Ocean's "Think About You."

Master the shortbread. 

I need my puppy already because I know he wants to go on walks with me.

Some good motivation via soul surfer. 

Give me a cup of coffee, a cozy sweater, and a mountain view from a deck.

FALL.

Can you smell it? The crisp morning traveling around the leaves and straight to your nose. The smell of the pumpkin coffee in the morning and the pumpkin beer at night. The smell of Ithaca Applefest. I can. My nose has been trained to begin smelling Fall on September 1 (the day I tell Mother Nature to give up on summer.)

Fall is by far my favorite season and I am already wearing sweaters and slippers outside on the porch with my hands hugging a warm mug. If only it was the end of October and all the leaves have changed and I had my entire fall closet out. Ugh, I just cannot wait anymore!

What is your favorite thing about Fall?

I'll start...

I love my Fall playlist. (Which will be posted soon)

Fineshrine.

Who isn't obsessed with Purity Ring?

You build a fine shrine in me

Tuesday Tunes.

This Tuesday Tunes is all about Lord Huron. I am in love with him. His music makes me want to fall in love and do twirls. Yup, twirls. When I make movies, this song will definitely be in it. Probably towards the end when all the good things happen.

Lord Huron is a band from L.A that makes exceptional music and, now, exceptional music videos. The video for "Time To Run" is filmed as a Western with opening credits and a cliffhanger at the end. It is the perfect compliment to this track as it adds complexity to something so easy. Lord Huron has also said that their inspiration for the music video came from a story written by George Ranger Johnson, a character they made up that even has his own website.

Check out "Time To Run."

Goodbye Old, Hello New.

My life has been taken over by throwing out things I don't need and packing up the things I do. It has all been a bit therapeutic. I've also cut off my hair that I have had long and flowy since I could remember. I think this is where someone would say "in with new, out with the old" and that is exactly what it is.

I was wondering what sparked this need for change and I have followed the bread crumbs (or pieces of hair) back to spending the summer with just myself. I got to comfortable with the things around me that I adapted.

Moving out of an empty summer home to a house with my five closest friends, was the deepest, freshest breath. Cutting my hair, literally felt like a weight being lifted from my shoulders. Cleaning out all my old stuff, was like sending out an invitation for the new. I guess what I am trying to get at is, pack up the old and the comfortable and move yourself out, give it away, cut it off -- just do something about it. The more negativity and comfort you settle in, the more it absorbs the person you are. I feel happy, light, energetic, excited, and the best me I can be at this point.

“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.”


Track of the day is from London duo, AlunaGeorge, called "Your Drums, Your Love."

Waiting.

So after playing the new Mumford & Sons track, "I Will Wait," on repeat for the past five days, I decided to blog about it. I am a huge Mumford & Sons fan mainly because whenever I am in my deepest thoughts and darkest moments I can always count on them to join me in the dark or wiggle me out of my head. They are also extremely talented and perform with such power and romance.

The first time I heard "I Will Wait," things got a little emotional in my car, as it should have. The lyrics left me thinking if I would ever wait for someone and without any thought I replied to myself, "yes." If I had that much faith and hope that the person might be there down the road to get me, then I would dig my feet into that ground and wait for that person. And if he wasn't, then everything in life just remains the same, right?

Would you wait for someone?

Tuesday Tunes.

What is better than some Questlove news? Seriously, there is nothing better. If I was to be reincarnated, Questlove would definitely be in my top three wishes. He has more talent than I will ever have, even if I lived twice as myself. So what is the big news? He released the demo of his Beastie Boys tribute medley that he performed at the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame Induction Ceremony in honor of Adam Yauch. There really isn't much more to say so listen below.



Other than that...

While most girls will buy out the Ryan Gosling coloring book, I will be putting in my order for Bill Murray's. 

This cookbook automatically takes me into another land.

I'm sorry, did you say granola chips?!

You can stream just about every new album today: Bloc Party, Yeasayer, and Ariel Pink.

Roscoe.

End your Monday night listening to Midlake. 

Giggles

Laughing, giggling, chuckling, cracking up -- what ever you want to call it, I love it. Lately, I have been finding myself crouching over from deep belly laughs multiple times a day. My cheeks and my tummy are loving all this exercise. I hope you surround yourself with people that give you the giggles throughout the day. 

Now, let's dance.

Yeasayer Internet Scavenger Hunt.

More post will follow this one for the day but I HAD to share this right away and can't take too much time away from some school work. So, as we all know Yeasayer has a new album, Fragrant World, coming out later this month. Lucky for us and the truly internet savvy people, the band has hidden moving visuals for the tracks all over the Internet until this Friday. Still confused? Head over to their website to see the note. 

If you're still confused, full screen "Henrietta" below and lay back.

Take Cover.

Last Friday, most of us scrambled around the television screen to watch the opening ceremony for this year's summer Olympics. The ceremony itself was bonkers but the Arctic Monkeys stole the show for me. They look like the coolest dudes you would ever meet as they play effortlessly and full of swag. Their cover of "Come Together" was very impressive and not tiresome unlike all the others out there. So this got me to thinking of covers -- are they awesome or just kind of dumb? What about cover bands?

Here is one I love by School of Seven Bells covering Lil Wayne's "How To Love." What's your favorite?

Where Were We...

Hello! Lately, I have been going back and forth between a friends house and working long days so I have not had the chance to update. First, I hope all your weekend plans went off without a hitch and you spent it with great people. I spent Friday night in a movie theater, with every couple in Ithaca, watching Safety Not Guaranteed and wishing Aubrey Plaza was my best friend in high school and college.

This weekend was also the 2012 Newport Folk Festival. Although I have never had the opportunity to go, the Newport Folk Festival is one of the coolest festivals due to its rich history, killer setting, and cool people. Oh and those monumental performances by Dylan, The Pixies, and Johnny Cash. If you are like me and had to miss out on the fun, don't you worry because NPR had our backs! Over at their site you can listen to and download performances by Alabama Shakes, Dawes, Blind Pilot, First Aid Kit, City and Colour, and more.

My favorite news story to come out of Newport is Conor Oberst debuting two new songs and trading in his Mystic Valley Band for Jim James, Dawes, First Aid Kit, and Jonathan Wilson. Bonkers.

Anyways, today is my day off and it is gorgeous out. Here is my song of the day:

Somebody Up There Likes Me.

This is awesome.

To be any one of those bongs...

See and Hear.

Today the first trailer of "Life of Pi" was released. I have been a little hesitant about the best-seller being made into a movie because of its intense imagination-driven-adventure-ness. I also hate when animals look fake on screen. BUT because Ang Lee directed it and the first trailer looks absolutely beautiful, I am started to restore a lot of faith. Check it out below.

While we are on the topic of high school loves: a band I fell in love with in high school was Black Moth Super Rainbow. Every time I hear "Born On A Day The Sun Didn't Rise" or "Sun Lips" I think of high school and some good memories with an old group of friends. Today, BMSR released a new track called, "Windshield Smasher." It will be on their upcoming album Cobra Juicy, which was funded by fans through KickStarter. Pretty cool. And so is the artwork.





Also, check out The Gaslight Anthem's Handwritten. I absolutely love this band. They are kind of a guilty pleasure for me because they aren't my typical music choice, but I cannot find anything bad to say about them. Brian Fallon sounds like Springsteens cool younger brother and they are from New Jersey, so they have to be good.

Last night Beach House was at SummerStage in Central Park and there was lightning.

"That was about as much friction as you’re going to get at a Beach House show. The gentle-hearted young creatives that make up the dream-rock band's audience didn't seem much surprised (the skies had opened up earlier that afternoon) or disappointed by the rain, and they weren’t about to let it get in the way. The downpour even enhanced things, making Beach House’s murmurs seem all the more romantic. Couples prepared to snuggle in the twilight now had even more reason to get closer. And luckily, despite the spectacular lightning, the rain stayed manageable even for the many who hadn't brought umbrellas." - from here


Check them out on Fallon tonight.

Movin' Around.

Moving into a new place can be a very stressful adjustment. I, myself, feel like I am never in one spot for too long and this definitely comes with the territory of being a college student. Each year you move in and out of dorms then to your new apartment then you study abroad then move back to your new off-campus house. It always becomes quite hectic and I start to lose my sense of "home" and just starting settling for living where ever I may be. A major downfall to this is I tend to disregard the idea of organization  thus causing stress and all the bad things. But no more! I am making a vow to make my next room and house the cutest spot to be in Ithaca. (Get excited roommates!) And here is a lovely little list I found to keep me in line.

How do you keep your surroundings neat and pretty?

And if all of this fails I will sell my belongings and live in this tent.

HBO in the Park.

What is better than sitting outside and watching a movie? Hardly anything. If you haven't been to the NYC summertime tradition that is HBO Bryant Park Summer Film Festival, you better get going. The festival is filled with all your favorite classic films, starting with Psycho and ending with Raiders of the Lost Ark. You can also park your bike for free and get a refreshing sandwich thanks to 'wichcraft (which also provides picnic pick-ups!!). What movie will you be seeing on The Lawn?

P.S. What a great date idea! 

Future of What.

Tonight, I have found the new crush of my life. The band is Future of What and they are from Brooklyn. The lead singer of the band and drummer have a pretty impressive list of shows they opened for: Neon Indian, Say Hi, Mirah and more. While all the members of the band have been musicians for a long time, Future of What was only created in February of this year. Not too shabby of a start.

Ladies, lay in your bed and think of you-know-who as you listen to "Back To The City" below.
Then download their EP, Moonstruck.

Bat for Lashes.

We waited long enough and, finally, Bat for Lashes is back. "Laura" is the first single off of the upcoming The Haunted Man album. The song is simple and elegant and really shows off the beautiful echo of Natasha Kahn's voice.  Check out the divine video for the song below.

Happy Sunday

As you probably know by now I am a huge fan of Sundays. I think they are the perfect day in each and every way -- nobody has anything to do but sit around, drink coffee, laugh with friends and get things in order for the week. Something is just so pleasant about that. Anyways, today I played lazy and drank endless amount of coffee and watched the documentary, "Big Easy Express." It is the documentary that filmed the Mumford & Sons, Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeroes, and Old Crow Medicine Show on their tour together in which they traveled via train. Obviously, the music in the film is amazing, but it is also such a beautiful film. The director really did an amazing job showing the relationship between the band and how the environment of being on a train influenced it. I would definitely check it out.

How was your Sunday?

OH! Remember The Page? Well she just described my perfect man to a T, just because. She is wonderful.

• "you will find a boy
• who makes ice cream out of a dandelion fluff.
• and takes you to concerts
  • and wants you by his side so badly when 10 mile stereo blares
  • that he insists on paying for you."

    
    

    
    

    
    

    A girl can dream.
