Regina Spektor - "Us" [OFFICIAL video]

I'm very obsessed with this song right now thanks to the movie 500 Days of Summer. I haven't seen the movie yet, but I really want to. I'm trying to find my own copy, but instead I bought the soundtrack and am listening to this 80 times a day. For your pleasure please enjoy:




p.s. I plan on doing a vlog very soon!

New Things This Week.2



These past two weeks have been crazy! So I have a lot to fill you in on.
1. I watched a grey hound named Hawk these past two weekends, and the last time a watched him for four days and was paid very well. However, I'm thinking about giving some of the money back, don't take any the next time I watch him. Oh and I couldn't find my camera to take any pictures, besides my dog, Tyler, didn't appreciate it that I've been hanging out with another dog.

2. I took a mini photo shoot at Jada's house, the puppy boxer I watched two weeks ago, and I even took them with my mom's camera. Sad thing is that I can't find the cord to upload it into my computer,, and I was entirely pressed for time because of the hot weather. So it'll be awhile until I find it.

3. My best friend from middle school Kathleen took me to this Agricultural Fair. It was so fun and I took some pictures, but my battery died. Therefore, I have a couple of pictures, but I'll describe the whole thing in another post. However, I also can't find the cord to plug in my computer with this camera either so again I apologize, but it will be awhile.

4. I get to work Freshmen Orientation tomorrow! I'm really excited because I can fill in some kids about what goes on in my school that's beyond what the teachers and brochures will tell them. There is over 500 kids in the Freshmen class; so I'm looking at 100, 200, or 300 kids showing up, and about 38, or 48 in my group. YIKES!

5. I finally found shoes that goes with my 60's Homecoming dress! There like these lace Mary-Jane high heels. I love them and WILL wear them besides Homecoming. Did I mention that I went to this SCA retreat in which we talked about Homecoming, and Spirit Week ideas. Our theme is Gameboards: Seniors have Candyland, Juniors have Clue, and Sophomores (my class) has Life. I wanted Monopoly because it sound interesting, but my fellow officers had no idea what to do with the float so it looks like it will probably be the Freshmen theme.

6. I'm still not done with my English summer assignment. I have no idea why because I've been working on it since school has been out. Its mostly the essays that have been getting to me. I know its silly to say, but my brain has shut down since its been summer and these essays aren't helping they're just stressing me out for the upcoming school year.

7. I've been watching a lot of 60's and 50's movies and I'm loving the fashion style in all these movies so I'm thinking about doing a photo shoot inspired by one of these movies. I have no idea which one, but I'm definitely going to do one. Oh and I will also post it once I've found the cord for my camera.

8. I've also been reading some books, so I'll probably be doing a photo shoot inspired by the characters in the book. Therefore, I owe 2 photo shoots and 2 post of the pictures I've already taken.

9. And finally my Aunt has given birth to a beautiful baby boy on August 13th! His name is Arthur after my grandfather, and I can't wait to see him! I know my mom is excited to see him because she can't stop talking about how when we were little, and how she wishes she can turn back the time, and freeze us at specific ages. I think she is mourning the fact that my brother and myself are very close to graduating.

10. I did some school shopping and realized that my style has changed. This year I want to go for this menswear, grunge, thrifted, vintage, and a bunch of other things style. I did this fashion inventory of what I have and realized that I already have whats coming out in department stores. However, I do plan on visiting these two vintage shops in Town because of this article I read in the newspaper. Although I did order some things on Urban Outfitters, and Delias that I plan to show you guys once they arrive. And I'm so glad it will be fall because I have a lot of great pieces for fall.

That's all that has been happening these past two weeks; its been pretty crazy with school about to start back up again. Uh goodbye my summer freedom. Hello school.
So love & new things,

p.s. I enjoy reading the comments, they mean a lot to me even though I will admit that I've been in a blogging-funk.

Movie Muse.2

"Its Hairspray."


I just love this movie! Let's just say its my go-to musical movie. I have no idea why I have a fascination with this movie, probably because I love the entire costumes, and the entire plot of being on a show and just dancing for other's entertainment. However, I think its mostly because of the entire fashion era with all of the puffy skirts for women, and put together suits for men. Maybe its because they remind me of cupcakes; the dresses I mean, oh and the skirts just whoosh up when you twirl. I would never get tired of that, the twirling and the skirts whooshing up I mean.

Uh I just wish that entire 60's style stuck around for 40 more years. Haha, just kidding then we would have as great fashion eras like the 80's, or even the 70's. However, voluminous skirts were seen on the fall runway, so I'm excited to see them returning in today's era. Thank you so much Louis Vuitton for advertising and sort of starting it.









Well back to the movie. My favorite character, well I don't really have a favorite character because I think all of the people cast in this movie are just perfect for their roles, and their is too many to keep track. Therefore I really don't have a favorite character. Although, I do have a list of top favorite songs from this movie.








Top Favorite Songs:
1. "Without Love"
2. "I Can Hear the Bells"
3. "You Can's Stop the Beat"
4. "Nicest Kids In Town" (mostly because of the costumes)
5. "The New Girl In Town" (they look like cupcakes, I really want their dresses)
6. "Ladies Choice"
7. "Run and Tell That"
8. "(Its) Hairspray"
9. "Come So Far (Got So Far to Go)"
10. "Welcome to the 60's"



My mom wants to take me to New York to see a show and I of course said, "Lets see Hairspray." If its still showing.




Zac Efron is also in this, so its definetly a favorite; even my dad is starting to like him because of the movie 17 Again. Its starting become one of my dad's favorite.

I just love this movie for the 8th time I've repeated it. I could watch this 80 times and never get tired of it; actually I've watched it over 80 times and I'm still not tired of it. So if you love musicals, 60's fashion, great 60's dancing, voluminous actors and actresses, and a great message then I recommend watching this movie.
So love & Hairspray,
justBEE
