You HAVE to listen to these.

So I keep raving about the Civil Wars. And I am aware that I am usually behind the times and many of you probably know them already.. but good LORD these songs/harmonies are just beautiful..

And plus I feel as if I have felt or am feeling the exact way that these words describe! I love songs that literally are written as if my heart was an artist. a very talented artist.

Real Talk

I just realized how sad my last post seemed. I wish I knew how to embed links and stuff but whatever, I am just trying to blog here people.

Tonight Me and the roomies got to go to be part of the live audience at the Chelsea Lately show. It was hilarious. We got front row and were those annoying girls who had stitches in their sides from laughing uncontrollably.. We met Chuy and shook his little hand, and just enjoyed being together.

Life has been over the top the past two months. The most ridiculous experiences and amazing nights and fun filled days. Filled with meeting new people, having new adventures, and doing things I never even thought to do. I have found out just how strong I am, and just how weak I can feel at the same time..I have met people who give me hope, and I have met people who let me down. I have seen the most beautiful sunset, and I have been awake all night thinking until I saw the sun rising. I have fallen on the ground laughing, and I have fallen on my knees crying. I have sworn I was never going back home, all the while I have never been more homesick in my life. I realized today that I have never been away from home this long...and I also realized that I won't be there for another 5 months. Do you know how much changes in 5 months? I do. I know just how much can change in 5 minutes, more less 5 months. It scares me just as much as it excites me..

This is my blog, and I get to be as real as I want..right. Maybe I should get someone to teach me how to make it private..anyone can tell me if they want.

But, with that being said. I miss my best friend. I have no problem letting the world know that. Some nights are tough as hell, and somedays fly by. Somedays I can feel a flutter in my heart with some sort of affection, and other times I feel so much pain it scares me.

I think I'm finally realizing what true love is. I'm so grateful for this time of my life...because I would have never appreciated love without this experience I am going through. and yes, I'm still going THROUGH it.. I'm not quite sure if you ever "finish" going through love. Do you?

The reason I am being so sentimental right now is because well A. I am listening to the Civil Wars, which opens up my heart and B. I had a serious talk with my dental hygenist today haha. She needed some advice, and literally cried to me as she was cleaning my mouth..

Sometimes, We just gotta get it out..

And for me, that time is now.

But in case I write too much, I will go to bed :)

Sleepy Head

I can't believe I really posted a Leona Lewis song...

Clearly someone was tired when working the 6 am shift..

geez.

Better in Time

It's weird to me when you hear songs for the first time in a different time of your life. I loved this song when it first came out. But I didn't really REALLY hear it..You know what I mean? Ironically, when I heard this, I wasn't even thinking about my own situation, but it's got some definite beauty in it. Eat it up.

It's been the longest winter without you
I didn't know where to turn to
See somehow i can't forget you
After all that we've been through

Going
Coming
Thought i heard a knock(Whose there, Noone?)
Thinking that (I deserve it)
Now i have realised
that i really didn't knooOooOw

If you didn't notice
You mean everything (quickly I'm learning)
To love again (all i know is)
I'm be oooOook

Thought i couldn't live without you
It's going to hurt when it heals too
Oh yeaah (It'll All get better in time)
Even though i really love you
I'm gonna smile because i deserve too
Oooh(It'll all get better in time)

I couldn't turn on the TV
Without something that would remind me
Was it all that easy?
To just put us out your feeling
If i'm dreamin
Don't want to let it (hurt my feelings)
But that's the past (i believe it)
And i know that, time will heal it

If you didn't notice
Well you mean everything (quickly i'm learning)
Oooh turn up again (All i know is)
I'm be ok

Thought i couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
Oooh yeah(It'll all get better in time)
Even though i really love you
I'm gonna smile because
i deserve too oooooh
(It'll all get better in time)

Since there's no more you and me (No more you and me)
This time i let you go so i can be free
And Live my life how it should be(No No No No No No)
No matter how hard it is
I will be fine without you
Yes i Will

Thought i couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
Oooh(It'll all get better in time)
Even though i really loved you
I'm gonna smile cos i deserve too yes i do(It'll all get better in time)
