Gah. I totally forgot to post this yesterday. I got held over at work and when I came home Boyfriend and I had to do some phone errands, because we're moving at the end of this week. All is set....we just got to move our crap now. hahaha. I'm super excited!!!! Buuut super stressed!!!! Hope all of your weeks are going smoothly so far.
Happy Monday everyone! Hope you all had a good weekend. I sort of did...but I was busy all weekend. Sighs. What can you do? Buuuut it was nice having the weekend off for once. Normally I work weekends, but I got it off. Yayy! Are you guys ready for some music to cheer up the Monday blues?
The first video is a request from miss B. I may not be a Whovian (or whatever they call the fans of Dr. Who), but a few of my friends so I can appreciate it. I also think the actor who plays the tenth doctor is hot. lol Enjoy:
That's all I got for you this week. :) Any requests, leave it in the comments below.
Happy Monday everyone! How is everyone doing? I'm so tired. I've been working a lot these last few days. I'm working 7 days in a row. Uuuuuugh. I have today and tomorrow and then I have Wednesday off and then I work Thursday. HOWEVER, I'm getting Friday and Saturday off. Thank goodness! Well...lets have some oldies to brighten up the day.
The first video is in honor of Motley Crue! They are retiring! I SHALL MISS YOU!
That's all I have for you this week! Any requests? Comment below!
Happy late Monday you guys. Got caught up cleaning the apartment and then realized it was nearly 7pm. >__< But yes...today seemed to fly by. A good thing because I had to work, but I feel like I really didn't even enjoy the day. Odd how some days are like that.
ANYWAYS! This is the second to the Oldies Edition. Been listening to a lot of oldies over the last couple of weeks, so why not share some of my favorites with you.
No one can get away with talking about the Oldies without mentioning Queen. A classic and beloved band.
The first song was the first song to pop on my Oldies Station on Pandora, so it seems fitting:
Okay...the last one isn't technically labeled an "Oldie" yet, but it was randomly on the radio the other day and so I wanted to share it. I remember it was my favorite song as a kiddie for a while. haha. Hope you enjoyed this edition of the Oldies. Who's your favorite band/singer or song from the good ol' times?
Had a stressful week last week. I'm so glad its over. Sighs. Some of the stress is still there, but I've done all I can do and now I have to wait. What happened? Well...my wallet and purse was stolen. Sighs. Everything I can do has been taken care of. I just have to wait for my new cards to come in. Meh. For some reason I like to resort to the oldies when I'm filled with stress. It might have to do with the fact it reminds me of my childhood. My parents love the oldies (those songs being from their youth) and they installed the love of the oldies into me. Especially the Beatles. My favorite of that era of music BY FAR! So for the rest of January and maybe February I'll be sharing some oldies that I LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE!
Happy Monday everyone. A new week is up ahead! I feel like this week is going to drag on and on. I don't know why...but I have this feeling that it is. Sorry for limited posting...I just haven't had much to post about and my reading time has been limited due to working and being very lazy. Hahaha. Since I have a little bit of time, I thought I'd share a couple songs with y'alls. ^.^
Happy Monday everyone! Sooooo sorry I have been pretty much absent. Once school was done, I was busy due to work and the catching up with socializing with the world. I had been anti-social during school it was sad. Haha. Now I have rested and am motivated to blog once more.
Well, since it is Monday and I have nothing ready to share yet, I'll share some music to get this Monday started:
First one is a lovely little tribute to Marilyn Monroe. It's fabulously done.
By boyfriend showed me this video...it's "controversial" and people are in an uproar thinking this video is real. Gotta hate people....it so obviously fake its not funny. What do you guys think?
Happy Monday everyone! I know I haven't posted one of these in a wee bit, but finally I have some freetime to do so! School is nearly done for this semester...thank God. It was so hard to be motivated...not only is it lovely outside, but I just haven't cared. I took Winter off, which helped none at all, and I've been working like a crazy kid and a lot of my time has been going to my boyfriend. Sighs. The day just doesn't have enough time in it.
Well, the first video is 'Just Give Me a Reason' by Pink and featuring Nate from Fun. I haven't utterly enjoyed a Pink song in years! I loved her first CD, but after that...I wasn't a fan. Perhaps it's because of Nate, but I love this song.
I'm really falling in love with FUN. They are amazing. Here's another song I adore, 'Carry One'. Such a good drinking song/motivation song:
And finally...since I didn't post what I wanted to post yesterday...here is a little tribute in honor of Queen Anne Boleyn who was wrongly executed due to the corruption of Cromwell and the selfishness and insanity of Henry VIII:
Happy Monday! I haven't done this meme in quite some time. Perhaps it is time to not only share music, but update my Favorite Songs of the Moment section as well.
First is a song that is stuck in my head. I thought it was rather dumb at first, but now I am addicted. 'I Love It' by Icona Pop.
Here is a nice Marie Antoinette/Louis XVI video:
That's all I got for you this week. Enjoy the week!
Happy Monday morning. I'm feeling a hell of a lot better. Still really tired and sleepy, but I think my body is just whooped. How is everyone else doing?
Let's start off with a stupid, but AMAZING video that my pals showed me. This is 'Narwhals':
Another video my friends showed me. I am highly addicted to Bo. Hahahaha:
And now a more serious video...I am not a huge fan of Bruno Mars, but I do adore this song like no other:
First....I shall start with some lovely and exciting news....my dear pallio's book is released today! I'm soooo excited for Dottie! I'm so in awe of her right now that she has gone the whole nine miles and has written a book and released it and now her name is out there...she is an author. She is a writer. I've adored her writings for a while, so I am so proud of her. Can't wait to read her book myself.
This first song has been stuck in my head for a while. I can't get it out. GAAAH! Plus it slightly reminds me of Lily from A Million Little Pieces.
Here's another song...this one, I believe, would be played in A Million Little Pieces, if it were to be a movie. Plus its a good song I've always fancied.
This video amazes me and if I wasn't shy I would do this. bahahaha.
Happy Monday! I'm so happy the holidays are over. I need a rest from the "vacation". Haha. Hope you all had a wonderful weekend, I had to work and did a lot of driving, but it was good overall.
First is a Snow White and Prince Charming video from 'Once Upon a Time' using the song "Oh My Stars".
That's all I have this week. Hope you enjoyed. ^.^
Happy Monday everyone! How was everyone's weekend? Mine was simply and utterly joyful and I couldn't be more happy right now. It was just so much fun that's its made this mundane day seem awesome. Haha. I'm rather upset that I didn't get to see The Hobbit like I was originally suppose to on Sunday, but oh well.
The first video is a lyric video of a new song I'm highly addicted too. 'Ever After' by Mariana's Trench. ^.^
My friend Sam found this...it's Maroon 5 covering the song 'Pure Imagination' from the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Good lord... more like pure seduction. I LOVE YOU ADAM LEVINE! Hahaha.
And that is all I have for this week. Hope the rest of the week is wonderful for not only me, but for all of you guys.
I'm back! I'm back! Time to do a jig! Huzzah I say, huzzah! *dances*
As you can see I have missed my blog and posting and my lovely stalkers, I mean followers. ^.^ I know I haven't been gone too long, but it FEELS like an eon since I last posted or visited other blogs. Since it is Monday, I shall post my Music Monday. Time to get back into the flow of things. ^.^
Here is a nice colleague of some of the characters from Once Upon a Time. Not only is the video lovely, but the song is fantastic. It's 'Ever After' by Mariana's Touch
Never thought this combo would work, but it's rather good. Here's a video about King Henry VIII, song 'Whatcha Say', and the song 'Hide and Seek'.
Haha, a nice way to remember the personalities of the zodiacs. My friend shared this with me. It's so true, it's funny. ^.^
Thanks all I got this week. I feel so GOOD posting again. ^.^ A nice stress reliving.
Happy Monday you guys. I just realized I passed the 50 mark on 'Music Monday' posts *throws confetti*.
First is 'Some Nights' by FUN. Not only is the song great, but the video is awesome. I could see Kevin from the show 'Copper' listening to this. Also, it would be a good theme song for the show too.
Here's another good song. 'Whatcha Sayin' by Jason Derulo. For some reason I could see Henry Crawford form Mansfield Park by Jane Austen listening to this in his depression over being an idiot.
Now for a funny video. This is FWP....this is dedicated for all those people who suffer First World Problems:
It's still Monday over here, but this is rather late. Blame work and homework! *shakes fist* ^.^ How was everyone's weekend? Mine was fun and busy. I was also reminded of that fact that I haven't done a movie review in a long....long time. Ekk. Whoops. Good news though! Look forward to movie reviews! However, it will be different then before. Not only will the reviews themselves be edited a wee bit, but I doubt I'll have 'Movies of the Week' anymore. My movie reviews will be more spontaneous. ^.^ Anyways, lets begin with the music...
First is another fan-video about Marie Anotinette. I can't get enough of these. I wish I had the time I did in High School, because I use to love making my own videos.
Ahhhhh 'Jessie's Girl'...an oldie, but a fantastic song.
Happy late Monday everyone! How was everyone's weekend? Mine? Well, filled with work and tiredness. I worked a 10 hour shift today and I nearly forgot to post my Music Monday post today. Not complaining about working too much, but for some reason it....just doesn't feel right. I like Subway, I do, but....I'm not sure.
Anyways, let's begin with the music.
First is a video that my professor shared with us in our Macroeconomics class. It's kind of funny, but true. Death to the penny!! *shakes pitchfork*
Not only do I like this next song, but I feel like Athena from To Catch a Wolf would listen to this and imagine her beloved Morgan. This is 'Give Your Heart a Break' by Selena Gomez.
Ahhhh, can't get enough of these multi-fandom videos. The song for this one is a personal favorite song of mine...'Wide Awake' by Katy Perry.
Happy late Monday! How is everyone doing? Well, this is my last week of freedom before classes begin, so yeaaah. ^.^ Now that I have a job I can feel my free-time slipping through my fingers like sand from the beach. Oh well, that's life. Let's begin the music:
First is a little music video by w4boi in honor of the Disney movies we so loved as kids with the song 'I Can Go the Distance' by Michael Bolton. For some reason the scenes of Ariel gives me a surge of hope. It probably has to do with the fact that she was my favorite princess as a little girl. In my senior year I put this song as an option for our Class Song, but everyone voted for this one song that I don't even remember. haha.
Here is my "new" song I'm addicted too. This is 'Wide Awake' by Katy Perry.
And now for something video....for all of you Thor/Avenger lovers here is the long-awaited therapy session between brothers:
That's all I have for you this week! Enjoy! ========================================== <3CaroleRae
Happy Labor Day! For today I'm going to give 5 facts about Labor day thanks to FreeholdPatch. Also I'll be sharing some music videos. ^.^
"1. Government Offices Closed: The Freehold Borough Offices, Freehold Township Offices, and the post office will be closed on Monday.
2. Labor Day 101: The holiday, which is dedicated to celebrating the American worker, is celebrated the first Monday in September. It's been celebrated since Sept. 5, 1882.
3. Founder in Question: Who founded Labor Day? Well, that's a bit of a dispute. Some records point to a union guy named Peter J. McGuire, who was general secretary of the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners and co-founder of the American Federation of Labor.
He reportedly wanted a day to "honor those who from rude nature have delved and carved all the grandeur we behold." In other words, the American worker.
But recent research points to Matthew Maguire, a machinist and secretary of a local International Association of Machinists in New Jersey, proposed the holiday in 1882. A picnic and demonstration was reportedly planned to celebrate.
4. National Holiday: Labor Day received its first official recognition by local governments in 1885 and 1886, and it worked its way up through state legislatures. It was officially recognized by Congress in 1894.
5. Don't Wear White?: We've all heard about the old-school etiquette rule about not wearing white after Labor Day. So where the heck did it come from? It's hard to say, but this Time magazine article posits that it had to do with the well-heeled wearing white during their summer vacations and then changing back to dark colors for when they returned to the sooty, dusty city."
First song is 'I Want U Back' by Cher Lloyd. It's highly addicting. Sarah and I rock to this song whenever it comes on. I was so excited when they actually played it at the club on Saturday.
Next is a song from my favorite book/movie Cold Mountain by Charles Frazier. This song plays in the back of my mind whenever I read any book set during the Civil War. I have been humming this to myself since starting The Spy Lover. I simply adore generally too. This is 'You Will Be My Ain True Love' performed by Alison Krauss.
Well, that's all I have for you guys this week. ================================ <3CaroleRae
