We’re finally soaking up


my first blog being 21! How exciting. I love October, I really do and not just because of my birthday. I love the leaves I love the coldER weather, I love drinking hot drinks like pumpkin spice latte's and hot apple cider. It sounds cheesy but I think small things DO matter.
Ok so moving on to music.
wait let me change the song on my itunes so I can get in the mood :)

So my rave for the day.....or week. Pitchfork...you make me sad. First of all I am very confused because everyone loves radiohead SO much. I decide to download... couldn't really get into them. A few months later I read a review of OK computer on pitchfork who gave it a 10.0 (perfect score). I get the cd thinking it will be the most amazing thing my ears have ever listened to. WRONG. Only one song caught my attention really, and that was Electioneering.
Is there something wrong with me or is this band HIGHLY overrated?

ok so onto a much lighter & happier note!

So someone gave me the Nick & Norah soundtrack for my birthday. The movie was cute but the soundtrack made it so worth it. I guess the music was basically a main character. I really like a lot of the tracks but my favorite by far is After Hours by We Are Scientists. I have listened to these guys in the past but this has to be their best song.
"Say That You'll Stay!" So uplifting, heartwarming, makes me tear up. I just want to jump out of my seat and declare my love! The rest of the song just build up to this and is equally makes my heart ache. The lyrics are simple but don't need to be anything more. There is so much emotion behind this song and the lyrics are just there to hint at the bigger picture.
I just love it.
