and it's contagious

i do not want to do my drawing homework.

so instead i'm blasting regina.

weekend to remember

for christmas my awesome friend, linnea, got me jacks mannequin tickets for this weekend. her mom drove all the way to moorhead (about 4 hours) to get us! we had so much fun. we shopped until we thought our feet had transformed into bloody stumps (i know how gross this sounds, but seriously-- it was bad) after shopping we went to the concert! we didn't really want to stand in line, because as linnea put it, "we look too cute to stand in line." so we didn't get to stand in the front row, but we still had a great spot. we witnessed a cat fight and our feet got even more sore, but we had an unbelievable time. i'm looking forward to doing it again!!

oh...and did i mention linnea's neighbor FLEW us back to moorhead? hmm..ya. it was awesome. the sky is so much more sunny above the clouds.

i had a great weekend, i hope you did too.

guilty pleasure

would you believe my guilty music pleasure is really provocative rap?

it is.
my ipod is full of indie, acoustic, alternative, and folk. but every once in a while a rap will slip in there. that's when i crank the volume and rock my socks off. i'm not a "rap" person. but here are a few that would make my all time playlist:

• Shake that Ass for Me - Eminem ft. Nate Dogg
• Sugar (On my Tongue) - Ludacris
• Candy Shop - 50 Cent
• Smoke Weed Everyday - Dr. Dre ft. Snoop Dog
• My Band - D12

tutus

Oh well in five years time we could be walking round a zoo
With the sun shining down over me and you
And there'll be love in the bodies of the elephants too
And I'll put my hands over your eyes, but you'll peep through

noah and the whale-five years time

compliments are just lovely.
aren't they?

All This Beauty

Everyday is ice cream and chocolate cake

And what you make of it

Let me just say
You get what you take

From it, so be amazed

Whenever you stop...

You gotta be brave

Vision of Mary in converse shoes

She's putting down roots and stars she shoots out

I am crying on her couch

Talking in tongues when the words won't come out

Old Coyote by The Weepies

i got bored today so i made butterflies out of old book pages. i really like the way they turned out. my family has to go back to work and school tomorrow, but i don't have to go back for 5 days. i have a feeling there will be more book butterflies to come. i had a whole month off from school, but it only felt like a week or 2. it went so fast. i'm looking forward to summer already.

oh, by the way, if you don't already listen to The Weepies you really should. they've really been speaking to me lately.
