Day 2

Day Two: The meaning behind my blog name.

It's pretty basic. I named my blog after one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite bands. (When You Were Young, by The Killers.) The music video is pretty awesome, so I'm gonna include a link. I don't know how to put the video on here directly.

(If you've read any other of my posts, you'd know that I'm pretty much OBSESSED with The Killers. )

Anyways, I really wanted to blog more than once a month, but I forgot my password/it wasn't working. I think I must have been typing it in wrong or something. Whoops.

Oh my god, only 7 more weeks of school. THEN...SUMMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh hallelujah!

Have a nice day/night! I sure won't be, because I have about a weeks worth of homework procrastination to pay for tonight.

Day 1

Okay, so this thirty day challenge was something I planned to do during the month of march. Obviously that's just not gonna happen. Oh well.

Day One: A Picture of Me and 15 Facts

This is a picture from my vacation to Utah last summer. I absolutely love this picture; The only downside is you can't see me very well. Let me add another one.

15 Facts:

1. I am the klutziest person you will EVER meet.

2. My favorite band in the entire world is The Killers.

3. I haven't had a pair of matching socks in over two years.

4. When I was in 2nd grade, my friend and I were such nerds that we snuck books into Fenway Park (it was a school field trip) so we could hide away and read.

6. the first and only concert I've even been to was Brandon Flowers on 11/26/10.

7. My favorite color is blue. But sometimes it's green or purple.

10. I am a girl scout. Yes, you heard me. i'm 15 years old and a girl scout. :)

11. Music is my life. (The Killers, Dire Straits, Fleetwood Mac, The Cure, U2, Bright Eyes, Pixies, Aerosmith, Regina Spektor, Mika, Pink Floyd, Billy Joel, Stevie Nicks, Coldplay, Brandon Flowers...I could go on for hours!)

12. I love lying in bed on Saturday mornings.

13. My favorite ice cream flavor is moose tracks

14. I'm on swim team because it is the only sport I'm actually good at (and because I like it a lot, but what ever.

15. I just applied for my first summer job yesterday.

Yep, that's me. Whooopeeeeee! Get ready for day two tomorrow.

Day 0.5

I think I made my last post two weeks ago about how I was gonna do this 30 Day Blog Challenge thing. And then I go and disappear off the face of the earth.

Sorry guys, my teachers kinda went insane and decided that the idea of free time is just plain stupid. (I've been really busy.) Hopefully, I'll be able to start it this weekend. I can't now because I need to finish my essay that's due tomorrow, and then start my other essay that's due on thursday. Ugh.

30 Day Challenge, Day 0

***Oh, great brandon Flowers quote: "I don't look so hot in a cheerleading uniform." (Oh I bet he would!)

Couldn't Seem To Think Up A Killers Related Title

Oh Monday, how I love thee! Not.

School...Blergh. Geometry is such a pain. Right now we are doing this crazy trigonometry stuff with those sines and cosines and tangents. It all makes my brain hurt. I spent two whole hours of my study hall trying to figure out what the hell I was doing and got absolutely nowhere. Maybe I wouldn't be doing so badly if my teacher didn't completely SUCK. I have a test on friday on all this stuff that I will without a doubt fail if some miracle doesn't happen. I wonder if one of the Killers could tutor me...

I'm also crossing my fingers that my parents let me do track this spring. I want to do it so bad, and they want me to just focus on school, so we'll see if we can find a compromise.

Well, I'm off to study some more and play some piano. I'm trying to learn how to play Somebody Told Me, and it is not going too well.

That Clock Was Tickin' Too Fast

Let me just say this: I HATE SUNDAYS!!!

And sadly, the Sunday at the end of vacation is the worst of them all. Sad face :( I'm

But Wait! Something exciting happened today!!! My family and I went to the Peabody Essex Museum to see this Dutch artists exhibit. Thrilling stuff. (It actually was pretty cool; I was just really tired because I had had a sleepover the night before and stayed up a bit too late.)

So, my sister(Savannah) and I were VERY, VERY bored and basically just wandering around the halls. And out of nowhere, she shouts "Oh my god! THAT GUY LOOKS LIKE BRANDON FLOWERS!!!" I look, and see I guy who literally could be his twin. I actually had to look twice to make sure it wasn't him. The guy was wearing a blue plaid shirt, dark grey skinny jeans, and those glasses Brandon sometimes wears. He was the same height, same build, and look nearly identical to the Sam's Town Era Brandon Flowers. It was freaky!!!!!!

Anyway, savannah and I managed to entertain ourselves by stalking him around the museum. I do hope he didn't notice.

So the day was actually pretty fun. Up until now, I guess, when I realized I had a ton of homework to do. Maybe I'll go eat some girl scout cookies.

Oh, here's what the guy looked like: (Pretty snazzy, huh?)

The Clock is Tickin'

Oh vacation! Where are you going? Is it Friday already? Yes, I fear it is. That means on Monday, I'll be back at school...NO! I can't think such horrid thoughts!

Anyway, I would just like to congratulate my dear, dear friend BRANDON FLOWERS on winning the NME Most stylish Award. Take that, Lady Gaga! (All because of me, of course; I literally voted 1,000 times) Okay, so Crossfire did not win Best Music Video. That mad me kinda mad, even though I don't think it is the best music video ever. But on the bright side (open up my eager eyes...cuz I'm Mr. brightside!), the Biebster won Least Stylish AND worst album and those JoBros won Worst Band. So that sorta kinda almost makes up for the fact that Crossfire didn't win.

Bye Guys, I'm off to listen to more music and savor these last few days of freedom.

One more thing: The band Bright Eyes (which is AWESOME) is coming here in two weeks. The problem is it is on a school night and my mom would NEVER EVER EVER let me go. So I'm kinda pissed about that. Yep. And it would be at the House of Blues, which is where I saw Brandon Flowers a mere 3 months ago.
