Lenka - The Show

Another newbie I need to know more about!



Such a sweet song! Such a great message! :-D

How could I NOT Love This!

The Feeling - Fill My Little World

This song is on my workout mix on my iPod...Why? I'm not quite sure. But I always increase my intensity when it comes on, so I'm not about to get rid of it. Sadly, this version of the song is cut off at the end, but you get the just. Definitely check out more of this band - they're absolutely lovely!



I love my job. I know I've mentioned that recently on here before, but today for other reasons. For some reason, it was a slow Friday - Thank Goodness as we were training. And, when it is slower, we have the chance to chat more...and discuss things like when you would be considered a real nasty individual for continuing to be in a relationship with somebody that you weren't crazy about. I feel like this song is appropriate for that discussion...and it was a good discussion. The jury's still out!

Amy Grant - Baby, Baby

Every once in awhile, we have to go back to the things that we used to do, even if we thought we would never do that again. For example: quitting the same job twice, giving your time to others before yourself, procrastinating over something you really HAD to do NOW, and listening to Amy Grant...



This song doesn't just remind me of my childhood...it reminds me of tape casettes, dancing in the bin of my dad's grain truck, and sunny summer days creating air bands with my cousins... What a great reason to keep returning to Amy Grant!

Hannah Georgas - The Deep End

It's Hump Day... I feel like we could all use a little bit of Hannah to help us through to the end of the week...

"Weird Al" Yankovic - White & Nerdy

Ah, Weird Al...what was music parody before you?



I don't even know what song he is parodying with this, but I love it! It's not as pro-nerd as Coco's song about Intellectual Boys, but I LUMBed at all the same places...

Ah, nerds...where would we be without you?

The Wraggle-Taggle Gypsies

"How are you doing today?"
"Excellent!"...
"Even though you're at work?"
"Heck yah! Life's too short to not enjoy work..."



This song captures that feeling exactly! :-D

Stars ~ Calendar Girl

When you get those rare moments of clarity, those flashes when the universe makes sense,

you try desperately to hold on to them. They are the life boats for the darker times, 

when the vastness of it all, the incomprehensible nature of life is completely illusive.

So the question becomes, or should have been all a long...

What would you do if you knew you only had one day, or one week, or one month to live?

What life boat would you grab on to?

What secret would you tell?

What band would you see?

What person would you declare your love to?

What wish would you fulfil?

What exotic locale would you fly to for coffee?

What book would you write?
 ~ One Week

Some people refer to it as a mere "love letter" to Canada, but for me, the movie One Week is about its universal message, as outlined above...

If we would change anything about our day-to-day lives if we knew there were so few left, why are we doing what we're doing every day for the rest of our lives? Should we really be waiting to live? Why wait when we're living right now? And, if you aren't happy - change your life!

My Easter wish for everyong is to stop waiting to live. Take this new week before you (the last in many student's lives) and live unafraid. Because, when you look closely at the reasons for not doing what you want to be doing, you'll find that it is only fear in the way, and nothing else... Or do you not really want to live your life?

i can't live forever.
i can't always be.
one day i'll be sand on the beach by the sea;
the pages keep turning, i'll mark off each day with a cross
and i'll laugh about all that we've lost.
