Lonely by Pepper

I've been lonely, only
When I stop to think about you
So I don't stop
I just keep on
Trying to keep my head above these blues



Pretty much describes how I feel today. Trying not to think about how I can't be with my boyfriend because he's busy and we live an hour away from each other, but oh well.

The Christmas Song by Nat King Cole

And so I'm offering this simple phrase,
To kids from one to ninety-two,
Although it's been said
Many times, Many ways
Merry Christmas to you. 



This is my favorite Christmas song of all time. Only the Nat King Cole version, all the other versions can't compare. Merry Christmas <3

Baby, It's Cold Outside

I really can't stay
(but baby it's cold outside)
I've got to go away
(but baby it's cold outside)
This evening has been
(been hoping that you'd drop in)
So very nice
(i'll hold your hands, they're just like ice)



It's Christmas! The guy I have been seeing and I have made it official tonight, and I had a fantastic Christmas Eve with him. I love this song :)

Blue Christmas by Elvis Presley

you'll be doin' all right with your christmas of white
but i'll have a blue, blue christmas.



This is the first year I won't be home for Christmas. I'm seeing my dad on Christmas Day, but it will be bittersweet. I feel like this Christmas is going to be a blue, blue Christmas.

We Are Family by Sister Sledge

We are family
I got all my sisters with me
We are family
Get up ev'rybody and sing 



I'm picking this song because I just found out a big family secret. And I've learned that family isn't who shares blood or who you grew up with. It's who you choose them to be.

Ain't No Rest For the Wicked by Cage the Elephant

There ain't no rest for the wicked
Money don't grow on trees
I got bills to pay
I got mouths to feed
Ain't nothing in this world for free



The next couple of weeks are going to be insane for me. I'm working a LOT and I've got some people visiting me too. Next month I'm going to Peru for 10 days as well so basically I'm going to be super busy and probably won't be getting much rest. But I'm stoked to be so busy because i'll be with family and friends and making lots of moneyyyyy

Strawberry Fields Forever by The Beatles

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see.
It's getting hard to be someone but it all works out.
It doesn't matter much to me.




I'm in love with this song. And the lyrics are sort of describing how I feel right now. The lyrics I've posted are my favorite from this song. It's getting hard to be someone, but it all works out. It's hard to grow up and be someone new, but it's all going to work out :)

Music of the night from Phantom of the Opera

Slowly, gently night unfurls its splendour ...
Grasp it, sense it - tremulous and tender ...
Turn your face away from the garish light of day,
turn your thoughts away from cold, unfeeling light -
and listen to the music of the night ... 



This is quite possibly my favorite musical of all time. I'm in love with this music, and this is my favorite song from this musical <3

Your Song from Moulin Rouge

And you can tell everybody, this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind, I hope don't you mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world



I'm choosing this song tonight because I love it. That's really the only reason. I love this movie and Ewan McGregor is an amazing singer. The lyrics to this song are amazing and Elton John is a genius for writing them.

Good Times, Bad Times by Led Zeppelin

Now I've reached that age
I've tried to do all those things the best I can
No matter how I try
I find my way into the same old jam
Good Times, bad times, you know I've had my share



Today was kind of a roller coaster of emotions. It started out good, then I got REALLY bad, but ending on an amazing note. It just goes to show, in everybody's life there will be good times and bad times. But I'm hoping i get more good times than bad, and the way things went tonight, I'm thinking I will get my wish :)

Promises, Promises by Incubus

I'm on the road of least resistance
I'd rather give up than give into this
So promise me only one thing, would you?
Just don't ever make me promises..
No promises, no promises



I'm tired of people making me promises. It just brings me down. And I'm feelings kind of down today. Nobody has made me any promises lately, but I hate getting mixed signals and not really being able to do anything about it. It really sucks.

Song of the Heart by Prince

Everybody get up
Clap your hands and dance to the beat
Whatever you do little darlin' it's cool
Just get up out your seat
And wave your flag because everybody plays a part
One world united singing the song of the heart




This song is from Happy Feet. I just went to see Happy Feet Two and is was super cute. I chose this song today because I love the message and also because I saw the movie tonight on a date. The date was awesome and now I'm really happy and this song makes me happier :)

Don't Worry, Be Happy by Bobby McFerrin

Listen to what I say
In your life expect some trouble
But when you worry
You make it double
Don't worry, be happy......



After much thought and reflection upon myself and my life, I've decided this: I need to stop worrying. I worry about the big picture, when what I should be doing is not worrying about anything. There's very little in my life I can control right now and I want to spend my life happy. So I've got to stop worrying, and start being happy. Hence the song :)

Getting To Know You from The King & I

Getting to know you, 
Getting to know all about you. 
Getting to like you, 
Getting to hope you like me. 




I'm choosing this song because I've started talking to a guy I met online. I know that sounds weird, but he and I have a lot in common and its' easy to talk to him. So I'm choosing this song because I've been getting to know him and the lyrics are perfect :)

Keep Your Head Up by Andy Grammar




I'm seeing all the angles, starts to get tangled
I start to comprimise
My life and the purpose.
Is it all worth it,
Am I gonna turn out fine?



This song is for yesterday. I've been trying to stay as positive as possible, even though my life is kind of difficult right now. Whenever I'm feeling down I try to listen to this song because it reminds me that no matter how hard things are, they can and will get better.

Adolescents by Incubus


I’m feeling overwhelmed, overwhelmed
It’s getting out of line, line, line, line
I know I’m not alone
Just adolescents, you and I

It doesn’t make me feel any better


I am choosing this song today because it's how I feel: overwhelmed, out of line, but I know I'm not alone. I'm going through a lot right now, mostly changes that I need to make in myself. I'm finally growing up and I'm becoming an adult. Not only do I LOVE this song and band, but the lyrics are speaking me today.
