I love free stuff.....

I love a good freebie.....
I find alot from sites like http://www.heyitsfree.net/
A few weeks ago I signed up for a free sample pack from Target. I loved the first one I got and was eagerly looking forward to the second one.
Heres what target sent me for free.

This post has alot to do with music

So first off I'd like to share this is incredible video cover by Boyce Avenue of "Fix You" by Coldplay

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9ETxBHYBAU&hd=1


Second I though I'd post a mini review of Demi Lovato's new album "Unbroken"
I'd been wanting to do this review ever since I listened to the album in full. This was an album I took a risk with by per-ordering before any info was really out about and there were no samples to listen to because I was sure Demi would not disappoint.


1.Lightweight
Very Glee-ish sound that drew me in. Very catchy lyrics and my favorite off the album.
2.Unbroken
The sound of the intro is interesting but once you get past it to the chorus I really like it.
3. Fix A Heart
I love the lyrics of the chorus even though they're not that deep. The verses aren't as likeable as the chorus.
4. Mistake
The first part starts to show a different side of her that is shown more later in the album. Another catchy song.
5.Give Your Heart A Break
Remind of a Coldplay song in the beginning. I like the sound of her voice in this one. I can picture a really cool choreographed dance once you get into the chorus.
6.Skyscraper
This was her first single that came out before album did. I'm kinda sick of it since I kept listening to it waiting for the album to come out but it's still a great track.
7. In Real Life
I haven't given much listen to this because the sound didn't appeal to me that much.
8.My Love Is Like A Star
Very slow opening. A Beyonce sounding song that is a nice and mellow.
9. For The Love Of A Daughter
Strong vocals with a deep message to her dad with alot of raw emotion.
10.Skyscraper (Remix)
Nice change from the original but nothing special.
11. Hold Up
One of these songs that the beginning sounds like a middle of a song. Not catchy to me.
12. Who's That Boy
I laugh at this song because its so not what you'd expect from her. I can't take it seriously.
13. You're My Only Shorty (Feat Iyaz)
Super catchy and a great duet. I really like the way her voice sounds in this one too.
14.Together (Feat Jason Derulo)
Feel good song with once again a catchy beat. Nice addition to have Jason Derulo too.
15. All Night Long (Feat Missy Elliott and Timbaland)
I haven't listened to this one much because it got lost on my computer. Still not a favorite.

What a summer.

The date is September 6th (I know its not,but when I started writing this post it was). Summer for some is over,while some (myself included) are still enjoying the last little bit of summer.
So much has happened,changed,occurred...... things to celebrate,things maybe we would rather forget.
At the end of the month I will be posting the "Summer 2011" slideshow.
So far it's quite long,but so many things happened that I had to include!

Instead of making a list of everything that happened,I'll just make sure it's all in the slideshow.


One thing that didn't make it in but I thought was something slightly amusing I did.....
We all threaten to throw our favorite electronic object out a window when its not working. Well I took it literally. My phone (touch screen....who ever invited that is a genius yet at the same time I don't think I like them) has issues....call it a security feature if you will. It will only work with the top left corner being held down by my thumb. Ridiculous I know, and I seem to be the only one able to get it to work. Makes no sense to me. Enough back story....
It stopped working completely on the way home from the Keys. No matter what I did it would not work. So while we made a stop at a collection of shops in Key Largo I rolled down my window and threw the phone out. (Its not working already,whats the worst that could happen?) It hit the rocky parking lot and came up unscathed. So I picked it up...and it still wasn't working. I don't know if this affected it at all but about 10 minutes later it did start to work perfectly fine once again. I wouldn't recommend this unless your phone is tough....or you're desperate or angry. Or all three.


The Keys were awesome! Had a blast snorkeling and  hanging out on the boat. So much good food!!! Lobster was deff a highlight ^_^


It's so funny how in Florida we say its "cooling down" when the high is 90. When we reach 80 I'm breaking out my sweaters.

Busy weekend once again :)

November 5th be sure to catch Tom Moore and OTSB at the DeLand Music Festival!!!!

Use tear-free soap next time.......

As we embrace the summer heat, we can only think of one logical thing to do. And thats have a party.
Not just any party though. A slip n' slide party.

(I tried to embed all the videos and pictures,but its not working so bear with me and use the links)

Like all great things, it had to be tested. Which the guys did.

Then after we worked out the kinks, we partied.

What happend to Summer? It melted.

August.
The time that we all realize,hey...you know what..summer is almost over. And that list of thing we were going to do over summer....it never happened. So we all stay inside our Air Conditioned houses. Cooking up big plans. And for some of you, dreading going back to school.
Ah school.....
I miss buying school supplies.   Although I have yet to acutely receive a diploma in the mail (Thanks for 2 months of credit transfer confusion lovely High School!) I did have a graduation party (the best party evaaaa) and I feel kinda done. So whatever. By the time I get the thing I should have another party....

Lots to do between now and October 1st. Receive a diploma being one of those things. Not to mention family coming into town,Convention and the preparation surrounding that. Then a much awaited beach vaca. ( A.K.A. how long will it take for me to get a sun burn because I refuse to wear sunblock.)
Oh and the various concerts that conveniently all happen in September/October.
Do I love Weird Al and my friends going to see him or Il Volo more?  (Il Volo and their looks win every time.)




You see,my inspiration for writing a blog post only ever last about 2 paragraphs.
Hence,this post end heres.


(BTW...I still need a job.)
