Owl City :)

Come on? Who hasn't heard Fireflies by: Owl City? 
Fireflies was the beginning of my beautiful relationship with Owl City. My friend, Odom, fell in love with Vanilla Twilight, & "secretly" so did I! :) But my absolute favorite Owl City song is...... The Saltwater Room. There is just something about the lyrics that made me melt! I found this song by watching a livelavalive video called The Party Music II, which coincidentally Odom made me watch!  

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day.... 

A little poem for my mom. :) 
Without You
Mom, without you, there would be no me.
Your love, your attention, your guidance,
have made me who I am.
Without you, I would be lost,
wandering aimlessly,
without direction or purpose.
You showed me the way
to serve, to accomplish, to persevere.
Without you, there would be an empty space
I could never fill, no matter how I tried.
Instead, because of you,
I have joy, contentment, satisfaction and peace.
Thank you, mom.
I have always loved you
and I always will.

Love you Mom!

So I've had the Warped Tour 2007 Compilation Cd, since well 2007, but I never really listened to it. & I know what ya'll are thinking....."YOU'VE HAD IT FOR 3 YEARS, AND YOU DIDN'T LISTEN TO IT?!?!?!?!?!" Yes! I had my favorites ALREADY picked out when I bought it so I really didn't see the need to listen to the rest... but as always I was wrong. So last night I had no clue what to listen to, so I put my Ipod on shuffle. & this song came up & I was blown away. I love it. Hope you do too! :)

Insurance? by: The Higher

***FYI*** The lead singer is Seth Trotter, not Aaron Gillespie from The Almost/Underoath. They look a lot alike.

Project Complete

After two days of rearranging, my bookshelf #2 is done! But it looks a little bare....gotta go book shopping soon. GOD BLESS!

Another Project.

Last week, my parents & I, went to a nursery looking for plants. Needless to say, they had Koi Ponds throughout the entire place. & I decided that MY backyard needed a little aquatic action! :) This is what I want it to look like.----------->
So after begging my dad, saying "Oh please, Oh please, Oh please!" about a thousand times. He said..........MAYBE!!! Which in my book is "go for it!" So I did my research, got some prices, & now I have to present my findings to the warden(aka dad). Using my kindergarten style drawing skills, I drew a picture of what I want my "goldfish" pond to look like. Yes, I know I said "goldfish" not "koi" & here's why......1) Koi are more expensive, & the less money my dad has to spend the more likely he'll be to pay for it! 2) Koi jump! As in they JUMP out of the pond, & DIE. So why spend $5-$25 dollars on a fish that's gonna commit suicide??? & 3) I'm really a goldfish person. Always have been & always will be! :).......... 
During my research I found this cute Butterfly Pond Kit. & I'm really hoping to get it! Also I found this Cute Water Spitter! It's a duck! The spitter is not only cute, but it helps aerate the pond, so the fish get oxygen! <----- that's definitely the "new" thing I learned today! 
Anyways I've found the perfect spot in my backyard to put it! I have a rabbit cage there right now, but we're in the process of rearranging the yard. But at least the soil I plant the pond in will be fertile. (ewwww) 
& last but not least I have decided on the plants I want for my mini pond. :)
Waterlilies of course!  
Sweet Flag

& Cattails! 

And for around the Pond......
Orange & Pink Tiger Lilies

Daffodils

& Salvia!

I'm going to start buying & building next week so updates coming soon! 
GOD BLESS! :)

My friend & I made this video, hoping that we'd win tickets & passes to a Justin Bieber concert. Unfortunately we didn't win. :( boo.
But we worked super super hard on this video for two weeks, & I think the world deserves to see it! :) 



thanks all!
