don't you evah

Some gem's discovered over the weekend in the catskills

take me there please

hii whaat?

as if i wasn't already enough in love with bon iver and with this song,

this video just puts it over the top.

b.e.a.u.t.i.f.u.l

BON IVER "Holocene" from nabil elderkin on Vimeo.

because its a requirement to share good music

   VCR - The XX by tracks_arte

   Fleet Foxes - White Winter Hymnal by subpop

   Harvest Moon - Neil Young by houligen

and because I am trying to take life for today, 

and not for what it was or will be,

Every time I look out my window this is what I see 

and I remember that this is my city 

and for this moment it's all i need.

this instant

My Nugget is here.
I am listening to Lykke Li getting ready for her concert on Monday in central park.
Babbitt comes to me monday afternoon.

Life is happy.



   YouTube- Lykke Li - Dance Dance Dance by Fritidsministeriet

more music please

A few lil' nuggets i've discovered/rediscovered since improving my life with spotify.








Find me on spotify friends.
I want need to hear what your loving these days.

 

Pictures from the walk me and my rommate took last night.

So grateful this view is a 5 minute walk from my apartment.

Life is good friends.

Harry Potter in 36 hours!

Family comes on tuesday!

Babbitt comes in 2 weeks!

Gweeeee!

(thats the noise my insides are making, i es so excited)

Now enjoy this great song,

that i might have found watching pretty little liars last night.

shhhh.

don't judge. its a great show.

I could see for miles, miles, miles

Don't be mad. It might be another bon iver song. 

But his brilliance is too much to keep to myself!

This is my favorite so far on his new album.

I am sure if he came to my house right now and sang to me

I would morph back into a human being 

instead of staying this sunburned glob.

Healing powers his voice has.

Magic I tell you, magic.

just because it plays on my ipod non stop lately.

chipotle heist

I am now on a Bon Iver kick and since we're already here I have to express to you my love for his new album.

Have you heard it?

If not, please treat your souls to his beautiful voice.

He is coming to Brooklyn in August but madi might be a bit broke.

I thought about not to eating for a week so i could go,

but I am pretty sure that would lead me to holding up a chipotle or taco bell or something.

i am loving my time here in utah.

logan was utterly blissful.

a much needed weekend with my girls.

i was reminded how absolutely lucky i am 

to have them as the examples 

and role models in my life.

and yes i have been back and forth

about staying here and 

never going back to NY.

but that would be giving up. 

and i have realized this past week that giving up

is the easy way out and i am 

seeing way to much of it around me.

the past five months i have 

learned things that i could have never learned 

while living in utah.

living in NY has not been easy,

but what i learned last week in a zoobies (definition 1 please) apt.

is that nothing worthwhile is ever easy.

so i will keep going,

and keep forcing myself into uncomfortable situations

because that's the only way I keep moving and growing.

and now in two days madi is putting her big girl pants on

and is heading back to the place where she will

eventually be able 

and happy 

to call home.

this is the only picture documented of my time in logan.
but it might have been the best part.

out on babbitts swing in her backyard loving our lives.

also, thank you chels for showing me more of angus and julia stone.
i can't get enough of them.

for the time being

alright chitlins here's the deal.
the past two weeks have been the craziest since moving to NY/ my entire existence.
and somewhere between shannon moving to colorado, me starting a new job, and deadlines for some edits I blinked and suddenly found myself in utah writing this from my kitchen table. whaaa?
i have a crack load of things to catch up on here.

but for this instant I will enjoy a blissful week and a half with my family and dance around to this with my nieces while updating along the way.

i am happy to be back with this girl.

He's my brandy alexander

Found this song long long time go (said as if i had an Asian accent.. racist? Nahh)

Still in love, ohh so in love.

You make me feel like dancing.

I had an interview today. 

I had and interview today to take over shannon's job when she leaves. 

And i got it. And I can't decide wether to be happy or sad right now.

But for a moment I was happy and danced around to this song. 

Hence the words in this picture.

..okay, back to mixed feelings.

I am now going to keep editing and watching adorable chuck and her sexy boyfriend in the happiest show you will ever watch, pushing daisies.

Many thanks to Brett and his musical finding abilities.

Okay I have been a horrible blogger lately.
And just posting music doesn't cut it. don't hate.
I will pick up the pace soon enough but until then put this song on repeat and just picture me walking past Tiffanys here on 5th Ave trying to achieve audrey hepburn status.



Can I have her hair?
Specifically her bangs please.

Freelance Whales

If you look carefully in the last picture 

that sign above their heads says Driggs and North 7th St. 

This is my subway stop.

Swigga Say Swhaaat??

I am in a posting slump these days.

And this is where I push the dislike button on my not blogging or posting any pretty pictures.

I feel as if everyone in unison should booo me for not taking more pictures of this beautiful place called Brooklyn NY.

Now here goes me sharing my findings for you all to see.

Babble babble babble.

First watch the original version from 1:38-2:31

And then watch this version from 1:01-1:55. 

I sat with my mouth open in awe the whole time at both of them.

Now go look here and tell me you aren't in love with this outfit.

And then feel free to salivate over this and this.

And then go to my pintrest account and take a gander at those wedding rings I have been gushing over for quite some time now. (besides the first couple) all of them are under five hundred which might be why i love them so much. Future hubby, do not go into debt buying me a wedding ring. Instead, put your money to better use like buying me a trip to Ireland or fulfilling my life long dream of owning my own pinkberry, taco bell, or chick-fli-a, where there will be endless amounts of delicious, deep fried, sugary goodness.

Then pull your serious face out for awhile and read this. My dad sent this to me and i cried the whole way through reading it. What are your thoughts on "Perfection"?

And then listen to this song that's been on repeat the past week.

And last this is a picture in honor of ARRY POTTAH coming out on dvd today.

Have I dedicated a post to my love for HP yet?

Yes my love deserves a whole post.

Tomorrows agenda, the temple with my lovelies from conneticut.

Have a great weekend peeps!

lykke li

dancing to this while cleaning your house is an approved activity for a tuesday night.

i wish i didn't sound like a dying cat when i sing

beautiful meg posted about her and i fell in love with her voice.
i want to give her all of my favorite songs and have her do covers of them,
then i will put them on repeat for the rest of my life.
or we can just become best friends and she can sing me to on command.


please enjoy.

the lack thereof

Please note my last two posts.
I think i need to designate a day just for the new music I like because as of late, all i want to do is post music.
Okay yep, i'm doin it.
Maybe it will give this blog a little more structure because I am all over the place these days.





Also you must go check out this blog. The author is my oh so wonderful friend Makenzie and she has amazing taste in music. Love love love.

powerful stuff
