My Fave Jersey Boys

Can we just take a moment to stop and appreciate how awesome this band is? 

Aren't they cool? And this is just them with their Danger Days promo stuff. Speaking of, I just got back from seeing The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys show earlier tonight. OMG. I absolutely loved it. It makes me so excited when a band sounds as good live as they do on their CD. One thing I adored about this tour and this set list was that it incorporated songs from previous albums. I loved the fact that it wasn't just a straight Danger Days playlist, but that songs from all of their other albums were woven into the set. 

There was jumping. there was dancing, there was singing, and every now and then, there was the inclusion of a slower ballad to mix things up a little.  This band was so energetic and I definitely want to see them live again. They had fun, they were engaging, and all in all they were just plain AWESOME. 

Judge me as much as you want for liking My Chemical Romance, but I will never stop finding ways to release my inner emo/angsty teenage self. One way being to jump around and sing all the lyrics to every song like a crazy person. This was quite possibly one of the best uses of my money at the most necessary time and with the most necessary person. True, I didn't go to the end of the year theater major banquet, but I unashamedly rocked out to MCR with my sister. Worth it? More than. See you the next time they're back in town. Until then:

Music Mondays: Brit Brit

Love her. I especially love the last all-leather outfit that she wears at the end. Naturally, I want it, but I would tastefully keep the crotch intact.

Nostalgia

I heard this on the radio this morning and I instantly was taken back to the days of Summerland, where I first became obsessed with Jesse McCartney. Ignore the fact that this isn't an official music video and enjoy random pictures of him while imagining that he's dedicating this song to you.

But, seriously, how could you not love this kid? 2:40 for the win.

My childhood. Not ashamed.

Stop. Evaluate. Resume life.

Some people say I'm entitled, while others just say that I have all the luck in the world. Small amounts of luck aside, here's the truth: I get what I want because I'm not afraid to go after it. There has to come a point in your life when you realize that this is it. This the only shot you have at life and living and all that jazz. Step up to the plate and do things you want because you won't have another chance. Sure, you may instantly regret losing an additional 3 hours of sleep because you chose to venture into DC for a girls' night out, but don't let that stop you. It's cliché, but it's true. 5 years from now, you aren't going to remember how sleep deprived you were, but I guarantee that you will remember having an awesome time.

So what should you take from this? Nothing. Everything. Don't be afraid to take steps in your life in order to get what you want and where you want to be. Want to throw a party? Do it. Afraid that no one will show up? Who cares because the people that really matter will be there. The greatest adventures and memories often stem from things going horribly wrong. Cute boy across the room? Make a move and say something interesting to him first. Afraid of rejection? His loss, plain and simple. Ask and you may receive, don't ask and you won't even have a chance.

P.S. You're not allowed to use the fact that I said I have small amounts of luck as an excuse. Everyone has luck, you make it yourself. As for believing in destiny? Don't do it. I live by the idea that my girl Blair Waldorf so eloquently stated, "Destiny is for losers. It's just a stupid excuse to wait for things to happen instead of making them happen."

Sexy Saturdays: Paul Rodriguez, Jr.

I love Spanish men. I love skateboarders. Solution: Paul Rodriguez, Jr. 

(Though to be PC, he's Mexican-American..)

About that man candy: You're Welcome. 

To not seem as sexually objectifying as I just did, here are some pictures of him being talented at something other than looking good.

And apparently he's a family man. Presh.

Celeb Style: Kate Hudson

All day, erry day, I love me some Kate Hudson. She always looks like she's having fun. Plus, her casual, relaxed style is super cute and easy to copy. Note to self: things I need to buy more of include comfy sweaters, knee-high boots, and structured bags.

My Body

Story of my life: 

Also, sorry for the 20million recent and upcoming music posts. But seriously, listen to these songs and be amazed. And another thing: this new editor setup made the video super tiny, but regardless of that fact, the song is still awesome. Wait, stop, I may have figured it out. Go me. Yay technology.
