I don't really have a favorite band, but I love Phantom Planet. And I think I always will. "In Our Darkest Hour" (Weird version that I found on youtube, but I kinda like it.)

Come on. It's in the title. "Lullaby" - Creed. I love this song.

I love dancing. I'd even go as far to say that dancing is my passion. As such, a lot of songs could fit here, but because I'm craving a good quickstep (still!) and this song is delightful I thought I'd share this selection. Cantina Band (from Star Wars Episode IV - A New Hope) And yes, I have quickstepped to this, and it was bliss. : )

There are about a bajillion (it's a word) options for this, but I just love singing this song with friends in sleep deprived drunkeness. Hooray!

"More Like a Movie" - Midtown Without fail, every time I hear this song I think of the same thing. Finally learning how to carve on my snowboard. Snowboarding was difficult for me to grasp. Well, the time I carved for the first time without eating it I was listening to this song. Woo!

Lake Powell baby! This is our wakebaording song. Love it.

I love the lyrics.

This:

"God fashioned me For feeding; And set me in A hungry land." -Carol Lynn Pearson In me, God has made someone who wants to help, someone who wants to serve. When I was younger, I never wanted to be a mom and I only wanted to marry a man that would follow me where my career took me as I tried to prove myself in a man's world. Well, since then my view has changed. All I want to do with my life is work for those that I love. That sounds so perfect. Now at the moment I have no husband and no children, but I love my friends so much and I strive to be the help they need. As Pearson stated, "God fashioned me for feeding and set me in a hungry land." These friends that I love so much are hungry. They come to me with all of their problems. It seems that an exceptional amount of people find me to be an excellent confidant. My friends tell me things they've only ever told their girl/boyfriends, bishops, or parents. Or even things they've never told anyone...

So months ago I set this up because I had a friend who had one and I was also looking for ideas to blog about. Today I checked it and I had two questions and then it told me to tell you guys to ask me more... So here. Ready set go. Ask me anything http://formspring.me/hypaethral

Oh the options for this are almost endless! We're going to go a bit goofy for this one, but this song makes me smile ear to ear: "Petey's Song" from The Fantastic Mr. Fox. Enjoy my loverly readers. And if you haven't seen this movie yet, watch it... and invite me.

I don't really like this one seeing as I don't listen to songs I don't like so it's hard for me to pick a least favorite. I also don't want to post my least favorite song on my blog. So no youtube video, but I'll give you a title and artist. Let's go with Katy Perry - I Kissed a Girl. I hate this song. When I was in New York the my roommates used this song as a ring tone. Well one morning they would not wake up and it kept repeating over and over again. Later that day I was in the temple waiting for it to be my turn to do baptisms and that blasted song was stuck in my head. It kind of dampened the spiritual experience. So blah to you Katy Perry and your stupid song.

Well... my favorite song changes on almost a daily basis... So let's just pick one for today. There is one song on my itunes that I've played nine hundred and seventy-two times... but I'm going to use that for another day. So, today's favorite song: Ingrid Michaelson - Be OK I love Ingrid. She's my music luff. "I just want to feel something today." Also, stand up for cancer, m'kay?

So the latest craze in the blogging world is the 30 days of music. And I'm going to follow the crowd even if this list ends with us jumping off a cliff. So, enjoy the next thirty days as you get to see all of the lame music I listen to. day 01 - your favorite song day 02 - your least favorite song day 03 - a song that makes you happy day 04 - a song that makes you sad day 05 - a song that reminds you of someone day 06 - a song that reminds of you of somewhere day 07 - a song that reminds you of a certain event day 08 - a song that you know all the words to day 09 - a song that you can dance to day 10 - a song that makes you fall asleep day 11 - a song from your favorite band day 12 - a song from a band you hate day 13 - a song that is a guilty pleasure day 14 - a song that no one would expect you to love day 15 - a song that describes you day 16 - a song that you used to love but now hate day 17 - a song that you hear often on the radio day 18 - a song that you wish you heard on ...

Blah. I need a weekend to recover from this weekend. I didn't do any homework. I didn't even have to work this Sunday. It was just a stressful and emotionally draining weekend. Remember the forecast I put out about a storm on the horizon? You know how I said having friends was great, but I knew a storm was brewing? Well... The storm came. It came on Thursday. Things happened. I got stressed. I was up until four in the morning. Then things calmed down. Well I thought the storm had passed. Turned out we were just in the eye of the storm. The moment of peace until we have to once again brave the winds and rains to escape the cyclone. It hit again last night. Similar things happened. I got similarly stressed and I stayed up similarly late. Blah. And guess what... Things were similarly seemingly okay. But then today there was a little after party for all of the storm's friends. They came and partied for a few hours then went on their merry way. Well...Things ...

Well this is a post from my loverly iPod touch. Cyberspace, I am so happy with my life right now. I love the gospel. I love my family. I love BYU. I love the people I work with. I even love the weather we've been having. It's fantastic. That's why I'm slightly annoyed that people are trying to force a change. My roommate, my new friends, and even my coworkers are all trying to pressure me into a change. Change is good but I've just now become used to the most recent changes in my life. Please let me stay happy a while longer before you turn my life upsidedown again. I have just now gotten used to being away from my best friend. Just now gotten used to having to withhold feelings from my closest confidant. Used to knowing that the one person who would do anything for me regardless of the inconvenience it may cause is no longer here. I've learned to go outside my comfort zone and meet new people and start fresh. I've learned to stand on my own. I...

Things I've thought about blogging, but never really got around to making them into full blog posts: 1. Guys, if you're trying to win over a girl with a missionary, it's not wise to insult her, her choice, or her missionary. Not insulting her is a no-brainer, but guys still do it. Don't insult her choice to wait and date, or wait, or whatever the details are. She already feels alone and what she wants is a friend. If you're her friend then you have a much better chance at winning her over. Insulting her missionary is no good either. This is someone she cares about enough to consider waiting two years for. He is her love. If you insult someone she cares about deeply, she won't like you. 2. Stop playing these stupid games! Games and drama just hurt people and cause unnecessary stress. If you like someone, then act like it. Don't try to distance yourself. Don't tell everyone except that person. Don't be ridiculous. Just act true to your f...
