Come On Come Out

Well folks... I am COMPLETELY obsessed with this song right now. I have listened to it at least seven times today... Yeah I know thats weird but thats just the way I do things. Another obsession of mine is this website that jane p. busk showed to me. It really is so great... love it.

Slacker

I don't blog enough... I mean to, but I just don't. So I have a funny story to share. You might not think this is funny, and I really shouldn't think it is funny, but I do. So my grandma got total knee surgery a few weeks ago (not funny) but she got addicted to pain killers and now she is having withdrawals (kinda funny). Thats not appropriate for me to think thats funny but it makes me laugh because it makes me think of when she was riding a bike, crashed into a tree, and got a black eye. Now thats funny. Sorry grandma, I still love you I swear! Anyways, on sunday it was my brothers homecoming and there was this clock on the wall that was freaking me out. The second hand was just spinning way fast in circles (I guess that's the only shape it can spin in, but still) and I about lost it. It was like in a horror film... so creepy! My little sister Sophie got to experience the joys of maturation. She LOVED it. Yeah it's not normal. But she would tell everyone that she went to maturation and then she would go into detail about what she learned. We had to have a long talk with Sophie. Not sure if she was mature enough to go to maturation in the first place...

Have You Noticed The Spring In My Step?

Just to start off.... I LOVE MODERN FAMILY. Honestly though. Those writers just get the typical American family to a tee. Ahhh love it. Also, I LOVE J.CREW. It is just my favorite store of all time. Everything is so classy. Yeah classy is the perfect word to describe J.Crew. This is just a random side note.. but if any of you watch American Idol you would know there is this kid on their named Robbie Rosen. Now here is the thing with Robbie.. he has a HUGE nose. And when I say HUGE I mean it. So my parents call him Robbie Nosen and I just think that is about the funniest thing I have ever heard.

.....

You are probably asking yourself "what strange spectacle of a picture?" Well this is how the story goes. Once upon a time my dad gave my mom that weird finger puppet for Christmas. If you think that maybe it is an inside joke between my parents, I assure you, it is not. Anyways, one day I took a stroll through my parents room and saw this. On top of a random horse statue is the infamous finger puppet. This just shows how strange my family really is.
On Saturday me and my parents went to Joy Luck for dinner and if any of you have been there, you would know that when you first walk in there is a TV and if you keep walking you stumble upon a fish tank. For all of you Modern Family watchers, it is safe to say that my dad had a Phil Dunphy moment. The host starts taking me and my mom to our seats and we notice that Alan is missing, so we turn around and there he is watching a stupid animated movie on the TV. I start laughing and me and my mom continue to sit down. As we are sitting down we realize that Alan is once again missing. We look over and he is about two inches from the glass absolutely mesmerized by the fish. It would have made any three year old proud.

Sundee

Holy cow I know I haven't blogged in like ten billion years but
have been meaning too! I am more of a blog reader than a blog writer. I get on a lot to read your blog but I just never blog myself because a) I don't know what to blog about and b) I never have anything important/interesting to say. I will work on it from here on out..... don't you even fret one bit.
You know how certain older songs trigger your emotions/feelings of when you were obsessed with them? Well that keeps happening with songs that I liked around this time last year. I look back and see how much I have changed. Even just little things that I used to do have changed. For example, a year ago I would watch a lot of t.v. and do a lot of other pointless things to fill up my time. Now there is no time for t.v. Instead I have been filling my time with reading, running, homework, friends, family, and playing the piano and I feel like I have accomplished sooooo much more than before. It is just weird how much everything has changed from only a year ago!
Folks, I have a confession to make.... I am OBSESSED with ABC Family's show Pretty Little Liars. No, literally, obsessed. It's sick. I watch every episode without fail and I love every second of it. Just throwing that out there.
Recently I found this gem on my computer and I have listened to it at least once everyday. Love it.
