Good Morning Fellow Bloggers!
Today's post's topic is:
songwriting.
Songwriting inspires me. If you listen to a peticular song, and get past the bass and treble, and the beat that is just background noise to the singing, you can really hear the words being sung; the true meaning of the song comes out. One of my favorite examples of this is Selena Gomez's song: Who Says. Now I know many of you are not Selena Gomez fans, and I understand throughly, but when I was looking on ITunes for songs I wanted to purchase recently, I came across this select song. You can listen to about a minute long piece of the song on ITunes before buying it, and when I did listened, I was captivated.
I loved the way that she incorporated an important message: Who says you're not perfect, who says you're not worth it.
Now, whenever I listen to a song, I don't listen for the melody or the beat. I don't listen to the rhythmic tone of the song or the rhyming. I listen to the words, pieced together to tell an important message to the world.
I want to try and write a song, and when I do, I will be sure to post the lyrics on this blog to get your feedback and opinions. The words of a song should come from the heart and soul, and the true feelings that you are experiencing. You know the saying: a picture is worth a thousand words? Well, I've come up with a new version of this popular, famous phrase: A song depicts a thorough, vivid message, in only about 2 minutes.

Good Afternoon!
So, today was disappointing and frustrating, but I am trying to turn that around. We were supposed to have a half day today at school, but ended up having a full day due to weather.
Anyways, this week is going to be BUSY. I have a lot going on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday specifically: I have a history quiz on Wednesday, a health test on Thursday, and an algebra assessment on Friday! There is a lot of studying to be done! Luckily, the spring finale of "Pretty Little Liars" is on tonight, which I am sooo looking forward to! Here is the link to show you a "preview" or "sneak peek" for it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3YkPSAiEc0 CAN'T WAIT!!!
So, right now I have to work on my history project due next Tuesday so i just wanted to check in! It is so dreary outside but I have a Blue Hydrangea candle lit, and a mug filled with sipping chocolate, so I'm all set! See you all later...

Good Afternoon Fellow Bloggers!
Right now, while typing this post, I am snacking on a Dannon Fruit on the Bottom Strawberry Cheesecake yogurt! Mmmmhmmm! Yummy! So anyways, today was a Monday, (ugh), but actually today turned out fine!
It was pie day in Algebra (3.14), so we had chocolate pudding pie which our teacher gratefully made for us. If I want to be a surgeon when I get older (especially a cardiac surgeon which is a surgeon that limits their practice to the heart and its major blood vessels), I have to be great in science, but also in math. The heart fascinates me for some reason, and I cannot explain it. I know that I am still young, and a lot could change from now to then, but I cannot wait until I learn anatomy in school and see if a surgeon is really what I want to be; if it's in my calling. Regretfully, math and science are not my strongest subjects, but that could also change.
Something else that I am really excited and enthusiastic about is next year. I get to go to my dream high school! Could that get any better. To be honest, I wasn't really looking forward to high school. I mean, haven't you watched the movies where a helpless nerd gets pushed around and bullied by a group of insecure, buff football players? High school seems like it's all cliques and drugs, and less caring about grades. I am the type of girl that is independent, and loves having independence at her fingertips! That is what this "dream" high school offers. And guess what? I'M GOING THERE!
It's beautiful, and rustic, and traditional, and has everything I'd want in a high school! I want to get involved in yoga, working out in the amazing gym, being on the varsity soccer team, playing tennis and squash, becoming an artist and working as a writer for the school newspaper! There's too much that I just can't choose from (the list goes on and on and on). And I don't think I'll ever want to leave!
But anyways, back to the topic, science and math. In order to save lives by being a surgeon, I need to be good in science and math. I am more of a history, language, English type girl, but that doesn't mean I don't get A+ in my science and math classes, though! Tomorrow, I am taking one of two science tests that I am really regretting. I might review for that using last year's science material (I have a stuffed folder full of material to study from), or I might just try my best on it.
For Advent, I gave up spending a lot of money. But, this weekend, I am going to the mall with a group of my girlfriends and we're taking out Anna (one of my best friends) for lunch because it is her birthday! Yay! Happy birthday babe!
I hope you enjoyed taking a peek into my life! I will talk to you all later!
