it's hard for me to articulate how jason mraz's music makes me feel. he writes these songs, these lyrics, that are all cheesy sentiment, or should be, but they're so perfectly not. maybe it's how earnest it is. or how earnest he is. when people say that the best work is born out of angst, he's my go-to for why and how that isn't true ( Read more... )

who would've thought that, three years after gleefully freaking out over them on the sing-off, i'd get to see pentatonix perform in the flesh, in singapore, and have it be one of the wildest concerts i've ever been to ( Read more... )

so in the spirit of not thinking about depressing things, i'm going to post about the final leg of my 9 week trip to san francisco! and about how overwhelmingly glad i am to finally be home, ahhhhh! if there's anything this trip has shown me, it's how much i don't want to be away from home. to be fair, that probably wasn't helped by the fact that ( Read more... )

SO I SAW JUSTIN IN CONCERT TONIGHT FOR PROBABLY THE FIRST AND LAST TIME IN MY LIFE AND HE WAS SO MUCH MORE THAN I COULD'VE EVER IMAGINED OR PREDICTED AND NOW I CAN DIE HAPPY. the only way this could've been better was if i'd been in front of the stage instead of so far back (in good seats, but SO FAR BACK) that he looked like a tiny stick person ( Read more... )

iiiiiiii am finally getting around to posting my recap about cook being in singapore last thursday and all the madness that entailed. first of all, i suck at photos, so everything here is from doctor_jehane, tynislove or starafar. thank you, lovelies! and since we're on the topic of doctor_jehane, if you're privileged enough to be on her (tres exclusive) f-list, you should RUN ON OVER THERE ( Read more... )

it's been four years since my first (and only) formula one race, nearly three years since i watched a full race, and this weekend kind of reminded me why that is. i'm pretty sure the amount of willpower it took to get out of bed and go to the track the last couple of days rivals the horsepower they use to drive the cars around the circuit ( Read more... )

it's been ages since i wrote in this and it's mostly because nothing happens in my life ( Read more... )

the last three days have been a whirlwind of travelling and shopping and one direction, and i couldn't be more pleased. we started out fairly early on wednesday so we'd make it to san fran for brunch. it's the third time i've been to joe's crab shack and it's probably the biggest thing i have to thank inahurricane for introducing me to the first time i was ( Read more... )

so i tried to write up this post last night but my laptop failed me and lj ate my entry which i thought might detract from my flail a little bit, but my brother just walked into the room and asked how the concert was last night and as i was describing it to him i had to press my face into my hands and gleeface into them a bit, so that's obviously a ( Read more... )

was going to talk about seeing blue for the first time ever and how it brought out all the love i have for boybands all over again and also DUNCAN JAMES HAS A PERFECT FACE AND PERFECT HAT AND PERFECT EVERYTHING GOD I WANT TO BE IN HIS BEDROOM RIGHT NOW and their harmonies were siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick except when they weren't and the boys should ( Read more... )
