What I'm Looking Forward to For Fall/Winter

It's starting to get chillier outside! I'm very excited. There are so many things I'm looking forward to for the cold weather months. Check it:

  1. Scarves-I love scarfs. They're practical, cozy, and cute!
  2. Fall/Winter Scents-Especially at Bath & Body Works. The Christmas tree candle is amazing :O
  3. Eggnog-Need I explain this one?
  4. Shea Butter Infused Socks-Saw these last week and finally bought them today. They're from Bath & Body Works(one of my favorite stores) and they are the softest things I've ever felt. Like heaven. Go buy some for yourself:http://www.bathandbodyworks.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3432211
  5. Halloween-I've always loved Halloween! An excuse to eat wayyy too much candy, look either hideous or like a slut, and scare people! Who could ask for anything more?
  6. Cozy sweaters-Who doesn't like to bundle up in a soft, warm sweater on a cold winter day?
  7. Reading-I always find myself reading way more during the cold seasons because I like to be cliche. I light candles and put on some Christmas tunes, then curl up under the covers and read a book. Hell, I've been pretending it's cold and doing that when it's still warm!
  8. Candy canes- <3
  9. Sitting By the Fireplace-Cliche, I know.
  10. Christmas-There's no better holiday! I'm going to start early this year, even if I get dirty looks for it :P
  11. Hot Cocoa-Might make some later...
  12. Christmas Specials-Rudolph, Charlie Brown, Santa Claus is Coming to Town, How the Grinch Stole Christmas(the original-none of that modern crap), all the classics. Can't go a Christmas without 'em.
  13. PIE!-Hot apple pie, fresh out of the oven-magic.
  14. Thanksgiving-Probably my second favorite holiday! I love spending time with my family and eating entirely too much of my favorite foods!
  15. SNOW!!!-We'd better get some this year. Even just a little dusty. Anything.
So, what are you looking forward to?

Time For a Real Post


Oh wow. I've been such a slacker. I keep telling myself, I'm going to post something today, however I've been busy and lazy(occasionally at the same time-not a great combination). In my defense, I started a post the other day, saved it as a draft to get back to, and completely lost my train of thought and inspiration. The past two days of my life were completely consumed by a project I was frantically trying to get done. But I'm finally completely free today, so it's time to sit down and tell you about everything that's been going on in my life.

The Fray Concert. Possibly the best night of my life(so far-but the U2 concert is coming up quickly!) I meant to post a couple weeks ago, when I was still riding on the Fray high(which lasts up to 3 days). I can't possibly put this experience into words, but I'm going to give it my best shot.
My dad, SunnyD, and I went to the concert. They opened with "She Is"(if my memory serves me right) and closed with the most spine-chillingly wonderful song in the entire freaking world, "Happiness". I was hungry and didn't feel good at all, but I totally didn't notice at all. Their live music could double as an anesthetic.
And I just got terribly distracted and spent 15 minutes googling Isaac Slade's(lead singer) wife, trying to figure out whether or not she's good enough for him(FYI-she's not). He should be mine.
Anyway, concert was amazing. End of story.

Other than that, I don't think anything big has been going on. I always get bored in class and start thinking of a million things I could blog about. Of course, when I have inspiration, I have no computer. When I have a computer, I have no inspiration. FML.
So right now I'm listening to:

  1. "I Wanna Have Your Babies"-Natasha Bedingfield-This song's just awesome. And it makes me think of Isaac Slade :P
  2. "Your Easy Lovin' Ain't Pleasin' Nothin'"-Mayer Hawthorne-if you haven't heard Mayer Hawthorne yet, check him out. His old-timey sound is very nice :D
  3. "Cantaloop (Flip Fantasia)-US3-This song always makes me laugh!
  4. "Under Control" by Parachute-good song
Get ready for your mind to blown. I went to Borders with the greatest people in the world on saturday. I bought 3 books (one hardcover and two floppy ones) and a cell phone charm. I calculated the original prices-the total was $41. I spent $4. Try to process that, bitches.

Due to extreme tiredness yesterday, I missed the season premiere of "The Big Bang Theory"-I recorded it, however, and watched it today. One word: AWESOME. Two words: Hilarious and AWESOME. Watch it. On a related note, I finally got around to watching last week's premiere of the new season of "The Office" today. It can share the words I used to describe Big Bang. If you haven't watched either of these shows-DO IT.

I think this is the last thing of my current "In Need of Blogging" list. I've been bored lately and I came across this guy on YouTube that the YouTube-savvy have known about for a while, named Phillip DeFranco. He does a 3-4 minute show where he talks about things in the news, politics, and interesting topics. And I'm pretty sure he makes a new video every day. You heard me. Now that's dedication. Check out his channel here:

In the words of The Fray, that's enough for now. Hope everyone has a great week! I make no promises, but I will try to post sometime soon.

P.S. I forgot to watch the premiere of "Glee". And the encore the next day. And the next episode. GRRR.
