Top Three Bands


My favorite three bands currently (No particular order because I like them all the same):

The Fray
Cartel
Funeral For a Friend

They just have their respective differences.

I bought The Fray's new CD on Friday. I've listened to it at least five times now, and it was definitely worth every cent.

Check out any these three bands if you like good rock music!

Quote of the Day

"If you see someone without a smile, give them one of yours."

I'm happy right now, and I would, ideally, like to live by philosophies such as this quote.

Some Good Music


Lately, for the past month or so, I've been listening to Funeral for a Friend. I love their new album entitled Hours. It is flat out awesome. If you've never listened to them, check out that album.

My favorite songs from it are:

Roses for the Dead
Monsters
Recovery

Enjoy!

College and the ACT

Well, lately I've been fixated on determining what colleges I want to apply to. My current thought process is that I am going to apply to the University of Michigan, Michigan State University, Hope College, and Grand Valley State University. Along with those, I want to try for one prestigious university outside of Michigan. I would do that solely for the thrill of getting denied or accepted, which I can guarantee I have a good chance of denial.

Why?

This would be because I scored a 26 on the ACT. I was supposed to retake it today, but I figure if I'm going to Hope, GVSU, or MSU (which is my plan), then there is no point in retaking it. That is the only thing the ACT is good for (getting accepted into college for undergraduate studies). Besides college applications, it really doesn't matter. Therefore, I was not going to retake the ACT solely for the purpose of being accepted into a prestigious university. I know if I would have retaken it and scored a 28 then I probably would have been accepted. As long as I believe I would have been, it is comforting enough for me.

At the moment, I am thinking I want to go to Michigan State University and go to the James Madison College. But this isn't an overnight process so I will probably change my mind at least ten more times before I send a letter of intent. That is if I get accepted to any of them, but I'm about 100% I will get accepted to the three I am thinking about.

Off to go clear up my mind and enjoy life a little. That's enough thinking for one day.

Quote of the Day

“I don't pretend to know what love is for everyone, but I can tell you what it is for me; love is knowing all about someone, and still wanting to be with them more than any other person, love is trusting them enough to tell them everything about yourself, including the things you might be ashamed of, love is feeling comfortable and safe with someone, but still getting weak knees when they walk into a room and smile at you.”


That it is for me too.

School Is Out

Now I should have adequate time to post. School finished yesterday. I barely slipped by with three A- s and one B+. I've been in a slump lately.

Hope everyone has a great summer. More posts soon, hopefully.

Back In Business.... But Lost

I'll be back to posting this summer. I had no free time for blogging within the last month. It was a very hectic and stressfull one.

All in all, a good month. Went to my junior prom. My sister got married. The track season finally ended. My brother and I went to a Pistons vs. Cavaliers playoff game.

This goes out to my non-existent readers:

Sorry for not posting this last month.

Although I will have time to post soon, I have one major dilemma. I'm not sure what to post about. I need to find a niche, but I can't seem to. I'm the type of person that would get bored with posting about the same issues everyday. I like to post whatever I am in the mood for. Also, I don't feel that I would attract any readers if I posted about my life. So that leaves me back where I was; I post what I feel like. I think I am going to do just that and be content with this blog, whether I have one reader or one million. Heck, I probably won't have any except for myself. But that's ok, I'm going to have to learn to like that.
