This last week has felt like I've gone through finals week, just without all the finals themselves. There hasn't been a day where I haven't done something or seen someone because they randomly showed up at my place with a Dr. Pepper (which totally made my day). Well, until today since I slept through stake conference because I was up until 5:30 this morning and slept until almost 2:30 this afternoon. Oops.
So according to a friend, I'm a "party girl" just because I went to two church dances two nights in a row. In my defense, I didn't spend a ton of time dancing as opposed to spending most of my time socializing with people in the halls and playing Apples to Apples in one of the foyers at Friday night's dance in Tacoma. Only at Bellevue's dance did I actually spend time dancing. The last slow song that was played was this song and all I could think of was the last person I danced with to it. The only reason why I remember it is because I can remember looking at his face and completely blanking out on the words. How do you forget the words to that song? You don't.
Speaking of Bellevue, I got to see the Seattle Temple for the very first time in person last night. I was so stoked that I finally got to see it for myself. Seeing pictures of it just isn't the same as standing just outside. I have three goals that involve the temple at the moment: See the temple at night (accomplished), see the temple during the day and wander the grounds (will get there one day), and go inside the temple (which is a ways off yet but I will get there). It was just so pretty last night that I had to take a picture of it. I'm definitely looking forward to accomplishing the two remaining goals I have for the temple right now. Especially since it'll be a while before I get married with the way my life is going. And in all honesty, I'm OK with that part of my life being on hold for the moment. I'm not one of those LDS girls that are fully intent on getting married before they turn a certain age. If that was me, I'd be scared for myself and the rest of the world as well since that's never been who I was.
I don't know who told this girl that she could sing but her voice isn't exactly the best. And it sounds like that there's some auto tune in there as well. Or maybe quite a bit of auto tune in there. She's pretty but that's about as far as it goes. There is music out there that is so much better than her.
Speaking of better music, I got my hands on a copy of Poets of the Fall's new album Alchemy Vol. 1 yesterday and it is amazing, despite about three of the songs on it being repeated from two previous albums. But it's so worth listening to. "Sleep" is my favorite song off of this album that wasn't from a previous album. It's such a beautiful song to listen to. I could listen to it all day.

ReplyDeleteI love how I just noticed that the second song I mentioned ties in with the title and with the first paragraph. I didn't even realize that.
