Downtown.

 These pictures are a little delayed but I figured now would be a good time to post them. Over Winter break, I got to spend the day downtown with my wonderful mom, little sister and grandmother. We went window shopping, rode the trolley, and tried out a new restaurant that ended up being great. The weather was perfect and the sky was clear and the day was just all around great. My mom took these pictures and her website can be found here: http://bonetphotography.com/

MORE POWER TO YOU.

I used to spend an endess amount of time on my step-dad's Macbook watching Front Row, an app of sorts for watching any trailer for upcoming or current movies. I've always admired the people who make them. They have a knack for turning an grade D movie into a two minute masterpiece that inspires. The music is always perfect and the shots and speed of the frames are spot on. When going to the movie theatre, I sometimes enjoy watching them more than the actual movie I paid to see. After sifting through seeral dozen, I found a few I can't wait to see and thought you might enjoy too. Apparently my website only allows me to use one video per post, so check out the trailers for Martha Marcy May Marlene and Detachment.

Update:

Sorry for the lack of postings! It's taken me a while to get into the swing of things with my new classes and training for a new job. Within the next couple of weeks, I'm going to start working on some new things with my wonderful photographer, Sammy Sirak so the blog posts should be back to normal by that time. Thanks for sticking with me!

Sunday Playlist

Though I spent most of my week sick in bed, it has been filled with good conversation and spending time with the people who mean the world to me. I finished an entire season of Deperate Housewives and started my new addiction to United States of Tara. Thank God for Netflix. I was able to get out of the house a few times and take a trip to the city, riding the trolley and finding great restaurants. Being sick gave me time to find some music that was new to me and go through old playlists to share.
