Could it be!?

Yes, I am blogging. Wow. Because I finally have my own laptop! I feel like such a grown up ; ) I hope everyone had a good Christmas. Mine was great, as usual. I love spending time with my family. I've got exciting stuff coming up in the new year as well. Manda and I are celebrating the anniversary of our first date in the first week of January. It's also Manda's birthday at the beginning of February. And then my sister's birthday in the middle. Also, I'm planning another trip to Oregon this June. I absolutely fell in love with Pacific City last September and I can't wait to go again! Of course there's lots of birthdays and fun stuff in between!

I've been listening to a lot of new music lately and I'd like to share some!

A little bit ago, I went to see Minus the Bear at In The Venue. They were amazing, as per usual! : ) But I got quite the treat. As Tall As Lions opened up for them and let me just tell you what. I heard them once or twice in high school and I never really got into them. They just weren't my thing. Well I saw them live and they are A-MA-ZING! I really enjoyed them. Here is one of my favorite songs from them.


Also, for Christmas, I got Team Sleep's CD. So way good! I grew up loving Deftones. Something about Chino's voice is soothing to me. So of course, I love this side project. Here's a little gem.


The last song I'd like to share is from an EP I bought of iTunes on Christmas Day. I had heard Bon Iver before and even had the pleasure of seeing them at the Gallivan Center this summer. I have not heard one song that I haven't loved. This song is dominating for me right now : )


Also, please enjoy this cover!



This post is just a lot of things thrown together. But, there will be more coherent blogs coming soon!! : )
