What I've been listening to lately.

I decided that I would mention some artist's I've been listening to lately. There is of course so many more but these are just some albums that I have been putting on repeat for the last month or so.

Arctic Monkeys - Humbug
First off is Arctic Monkeys. Now you would think that I've been listening to their new album but for some reason I've drifted from that album to this one because It is my second favorite Arctic Monkeys album. My all time favorite is 'Suck it and See' but for some odd reason I have been drifted to this one for the month.

Rooney
 Second of this month is Rooney! I've been listening to this band since this album came out in 2003 but just recently repurchased it and my goodness I've been listening to them non-stop!! When I go out for my morning walk, when I'm cleaning, and When I'm running errands. I love rediscovering an old band and this is one that I'm so glad that I did.

Generationals - Trust EP
Now I actually have a pretty cool story on how I started listening to this band. It first starts off with a band called 'Mates of State'. I first heard 'Mates of State' on David Letterman, It just happened to be on and I thought "Wow, this band is really good!". Then Kori Gardner from 'Mates of State' and Sharon Foo from 'The Raveonettes' did an Interview with each other on Twitter and I've been in love with 'The Raveonettes' for the past 7 years so this made me even more interested in 'Mates of State'. It so happened that less then a week later that my local record store was giving free tickets to go see 'Mates of State' if you bought there album. Which of course I did and gets me to the point of where I first heard the 'Generationals'. They were the opening band to 'Mates of State'. I was in awe of them, I seriously fell in love at the first song. I've been obsessed with them ever since that day, I even got to meet the singer in the front of the El Rey Theater that day. But I love that store because if it wasn't for all this incidents I wouldn't have even heard of this band that I am oh so obsessed with. But just FYI, this EP is amazing, It seems so happy and as soon as you hear it you'll have a smile on your face.

Metric - Synthetica
Last but definitely not least is Metric!! I just started listening to this album but my goodness, It is filled with every type of song, every kind of emotion. It's like it is telling a story through its ups and downs and I absolutely adore Emily Haines voice. This is a must listen to, so if you ever have the time, get this album!! Actually, just get there music, Now that is a must!!

Well that was it, Thanks for reading.
Have a happy Wednesday!!

Mini Hot Topic Haul

Hello Friends, Welcome back.
During Christmas time I apparently shopped a lot at Hot Topic and didn't even notice. I ended up with about 3 $15 Hot Topic cash coupons. But I really don't shop at Hot Topic anymore so I gave 2 of them away and only ended up using one sadly. I couldn't see anything else worth buying, and 2 of the items weren't even for me. But anyway lets get to the good stuff.


Mini Hot Topic Haul.
I told you I really didn't end up getting much at all, But I still wanted to share with you what I got. 


Bowie
First and foremost I got this David Bowie shirt. Just look at it!! Isn't it the most beautiful shirt You've ever seen??? Hahaha, well I just had to get it as soon as I saw it. I didn't really see any other ones I was really interested in besides the Jimi Hendrix shirts but they didn't have my size and I was absolutely devastated!! But Bowie sure made up for it. I have another Bowie shirt which is a Ziggy Stardust one, but everyone seems to hate it since black with a bright Orange Bowie on it. But now I have a new amazing creation of a shirt!



Keep Calm, I'm The Doctor.
Now these buttons weren't for me but I do find them absolutely adorable. My cousins are really into Doctor Who, They have really been trying to get me to watch it but I want to finish/catch up on Supernatural first. I only have 1 & 1/2 seasons left to go till I'm finally caught up. But as soon as I'm done I'm going on to Doctor Who!

Oh but by the way, They did Love them!

Supernatual... What more can I say!
Okay... So it's about that time that I started to admit that I am obsessed with Supernatural. Now you may thing "How can someone be obsessed with Supernatural?" Well it's possible and I am hooked. I started watching it when it first came out in 2005. I used to watch it with my Mom cause I had to be about 12 when it first came out but I loved it then and love it even more now! First of all the Winchester brothers are gorgeous, Castiel is hilarious, Bobby is just so sweet with the boys and I'm just in aww in how good that show is but anyway back to the Key Chain right? With all that info you could understand why I wanted this so bad!

Party On Tardis.
Now this I didn't actually purchase and Honestly I didn't even get this the same day. During the holidays I took notice on these and my Mom used to get the leftover Band ones from record store when they would through them out. So I figured I would call and ask after christmas when they would be getting rid of these I called about every other day till about a week after New Years then I finally forgot. Then something made me remember and I called. They said they were getting rid of them that day and that if i wanted to come in and get them that I could. So I hoped on over there and got about 4 of them. 2 for my cousins, 1 for there aunt, which actually got them into Doctor Who, and then 1 for myself because these little guys are just to cute to not have one for yourself. I'm so glad I was able to get them!

That was my haul/ Mini Hot Topic adventures with you. I hope you enjoyed seeing what I purchase there.

Have a Happy Tuesday!!

My Life in Pictures 01/13 - 01/19

Hello again!
Long time no see right? It's only been about 8 months but that's okay. Well anyway, I want to start blogging again. I figured I'd start with daily pictures from my week. I enjoyed elycia's daily pictures so much that I wanted to start my own, a little late I know but still. Well anyway I'll get on with the pictures.

Rooney on the brain.
January 13th, 2014: I've been listening to a lot of Rooney lately, like a lot! When I go for walks, when I'm cooking, cleaning, running errands. Just about anytime of the day I'm listening to them.
Dinosaur Sandwiches for the win.
January 14th, 2014: This photo pretty much sums up what my brother and I have been eating for the past week or so for lunch. I've been on a peanut butter craze lately. Don't ask me why... I just have.
My Baby Girl.
January 15th 2014: My poor doggy Pita needs a hair cut, and since the holidays are over I can pay more attention to my fur child, she's been needing a lot of it lately, And I love spending time with her anyway so I don't mind at all.
Rainbow Brite.
January 16th, 2014: My friends came over on Thursday and we hung out in my backyard and had a pizza date. It was really fun, now that we're older we don't get to hang out as much but when we do it's an awesome time.
Best Friends
January 17th, 2014: My little brother has just started taking an interest into characters lately so Elmo is of course on that list.
Movie Date.
January 18th, 2014: The weather has been so nice at night that when my cousins came over we had pizza and watched a movie in the backyard.

Adventures with my dorks.
January 19th 2014: I took my cousins to Claremont Village. Nothing gets more perfect than Comic Book, Record, Folk Music and Old Book stores.
