Oh, I don’t like the way I never listen to myself
I feel like I’m on fire, I’m too shy to cry for help
Oh, I don’t think you know me much at all

This love will be your downfall.

Last week, I got word from my mum that… wait for it… wait for it… WE’RE GOING TO DISNEYLAND! It turns out that my whole family, along with more family, will be taking a trip to LA in July. I think there will be a little over 15 of us. I’m so excited!
(I may or may have not gotten really excited in way that was somewhat reminicent of the Disney commercials where the parents tell the little kids that they’re going to Disneyland/world and they’re so happy that they wanna cry… Maybe.)
Now, if you’re anything like me, you’d be so excited that you’re already ready to pack your things. (I’ve already set aside my Minnie ears. haha.) Considering that we’ll be in LA’s summer heat, I wanted to explore my options in regards to, well, outfits. haha. I was really leaning more towards dresses because the last time I was at Disneyland, being in shorts in the heat was a little more than I can handle. My inspiration behind these looks? My favorite New Girl, Jess. <3

I know that this GOTYE song has been on the radio over and over and over again, but seeing as how I don’t listen to the radio, I’m not so sick of it. haha.
This song is totally and completely relevant for me right now, and these kids just made it THAT much better.
Make sure you watch the whole thing. The little girl kills Kimbra’s verse! (In a good way, of course!)
Levi released his new line yesterday. The shirts and snapbacks are pretty sweet. It’s no surprise that this release is a direct reflection of Levi’s positive message that he’s strived so hard to send out to his growing audience.
As much as I loved the shirts and snapbacks, I couldn’t pass up the deck. Now, my only problem will be whether or not I want to use it. Let’s face it, that shit is pretty.

It’s always nice to get back in touch with friends that you haven’t spoken to in quite some time. I got to catch up with a friend yesterday and in the time we were talking, he put me back on the right path. So many questions have been up in the air for me and it only took him a few hours to sort things out and give me the clarity I need. Little did we know, that in the time that we hadn’t been talking, we were going through the exact same thing.
But I guess life is sort of funny that way.
It’s time to make moves…
I tried really hard to dodge the crowds this weekend. So much so that I politely declined invites to go watch it with friends. But after days of, “IT WAS SO GOOD!” and “YOU HAVE TO SEE IT! GO SEE IT!” I decided to watch the last screening Sunday night.
My brother and I headed out to the theater, got there just in time and to to our surprise, we got some pretty decent seats. I’ll have to admit, I was pretty skeptical, but all in all, it was a pretty damn good movie. The only thing that really bugged me was that Natasha Romanoff didn’t sound Russian at all. I guess I loved the Black Widow so much that I thought they’d keep that bit. lol.
If you haven’t seen it, go see it. I’m trying so hard to refrain from giving any bits out. hahaha.
The first I had ever heard of Leon Marin started with an episode of Jimmy Fallon. He was a contestant on the game, “Ready. Set. Flow.” Despite the results, (I think he should’ve won!) I was fixated and needed to know who he was.
I played the Google game, found his Twitter page and followed the links to his website. There I found his three mixtapes, including his latest release, “Beyond Limitations.” Leon Marin sends a positive message through raw and organic talent.
I love finding out about artists like Leon. It really shows that there are so many gems out there waiting to be discovered.
Do yourself a favor, download “Beyond Limitations” available on his site and check out/subscribe to his YouTube page.
