We Are Fun.

Friday, June 29th, 2012 was one of the best nights of my life. I would like to thank Summerfest, awesome friends, fellow music lovers and most of all, I would like to thank FUN.

Those boys are amazing performers and seeing them live was an experience I will never forget. Sheer perfection.


Didn't get pictures but this is pretty much what our stage looked like
And I think this goes without saying but I have to say it anyways. Nate Ruess is a God in a yellow t-shirt.

Yup. It's pretty much like I got pictures because he wore this shirt for us.
If you're not already infatuated by Fun. you should be. They are so talented and so charismatic that it is impossible not to love their sound, their phenomenal voices and their wonderful humility.

"We are Fun."

Be Alright

Through the sorrow and the fights, don't you worry cuz everything's gonna be alright.

I just had to share this video because not only is "Be Alright" my favorite song off of Justin's album "Believe" but because he wrote it for Selena. Not only that, she was there for his performance at the Apollo theatre and was singing along with him. It's so sweet I want to die. :D


Here's the studio version of "Be Alright"

Across the ocean
Across the sea
Starting to forget the way you look at me now
Over the mountains
Across the sky
Need to see your face
I need to look in your eyes

Through the storm
And through the clouds
Bumps in the road 
And upside down now
I know it's hard, babe, to sleep at night
Don't you worry
Cuz everything's gonna be alright
Be alright

Through the sorrow
And the fights
Don't you worry
Cuz everything's gonna be alright
Be alright

All alone in my room
Waiting for your phone call to come soon
For you, ooh
I will walk a thousand miles
To be in your arms
Holding my heart
Oh I, oh I, I love you

And everything's gonna be alright
Be alright

Through the long nights
And the bright lights
Don't you worry
Cuz everything's gonna be alright
Be alright

You know that I care for you
I'll always be there for you
I promise I will stay right here
I know that you want me to
Baby, we can make it through
Anything
Cuz everything's gonna be alright
Be alright

Through the sorrow 
And the fights
Don't you worry 
Cuz everything's gonna be alright
Be alright

Through the sorrow
And the fights
Don't you worry
Everything's gonna be alright

I Believe in Justin Bieber

"Where would I be if you didn't believe?


Justin Bieber is one of those people who not only knows where he's going but he also knows where he came from. He constantly reaches out to the people who have made him who he is. He always wants to do free concerts, meet as many fans and take pictures as possible, he reaches out to children in need who have nothing near what he has. Justin knows what it means to be a good man. He also knows what it means to believe.
So go out and get his album Believe. Who knows, it might just make you a Belieber.

"Believe" is for the Beliebers because we will always believe in Justin Bieber.


I don't know how I got here
I knew it wouldn't be easy
But your faith in me was so clear

It didn't matter how many times I got knocked on the floor
But you knew one day I would be standing tall
Just look at me now

Cuz everything starts from something
But something would be nothing
Nothing if your heart didn't dream with me

Where would I be if you didn't believe?

There were days when I was just broken
There were nights when I was doubting myself
But you kept my heart from folding

It didn't matter how many times I got knocked on the floor
You knew one day I would be standing tall
Just look at us now

Cuz everything starts from something
But something would be nothing
Nothing if your heart didn't dream with me

Where would I be if you didn't believe?

(Where would I be if you didn't believe?)
(Wouldn't know how it feels to touch the sky)
(If you didn't believe, believe, believe)

Didn't matter how many I got knocked on the floor
You knew one day I would be standing tall
Just look at us now

Cuz everything starts from something
But something would be nothing
Nothing if your heart didn't dream with me

Cuz everything starts from something
But something would be nothing
Nothing if your heart didn't dream with me

Where would I be if you didn't believe?

(Where would I be if you didn't believe?)
(Wouldn't know how it feels to touch the sky)
(If you didn't believe)
Where would I be if you didn't believe?

Life As We Know It

This life is a difficult one. But it's the only one we've got. We might as well make the most of it.
And since we have all this time on our hands, we might as well not rush into it too much.

Surround yourself with the people who bring out the best you. Find a career that wills you to get up in the morning. Save your heart, for there is always someone worth waiting for.

Right Now, We Are Alive

The Perks of Being a Wallflower is going to be the most beautiful movie ever. This book has had an enormous impact on my life and I cannot wait to see it come to life on the big screen.


Charlie, Sam and Patrick are some of the most interesting people I have ever had the pleasure of discovering. Give them the chance to show you who they really are and you may just discover things you didn't know about yourself. Once you take a ride with them you will feel infinite.

"I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. And maybe we'll never know most of them. But even if we don't have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there"

We've Got the Dreamers Disease

Some songs just have the perfect lyrics. They just say everything that needs to be said. "You Get What You Give" is one of those songs. 


Wake up kids
   We've got the dreamers disease
        Age 14 we got you down on your knees
              So polite, you're busy still saying please

       Frienemies, who when you're down ain't your friend
   Every night we smash their Mercedes-Benz
First we run and then we laugh till we cry

    But when the night is falling
        You cannot find the light, light
             If you feel your dreams are dying
                 Hold tight

                      You've got the music in you
                   Don't let go
               You've got the music in you
          One dance left
     This world is gonna pull through
         Don't give up
            You've got a reason to live
               Can't forget
                   We only get what we give

        I'm coming home, baby
    You're tops
Give it to me now

           Four a.m. we ran a miracle mile
              We're flat broke but hey we do it in style
                  The bad rich
                     God's flying in for your trial

             But when the night is falling
       You cannot find a friend, friend
    You feel your tree is breaking
  Just then


                    You've got the music in you
                Don't let go
         You've got the music in you
     One dance left
This world is gonna pull through
     Don't give up
        You've got a reason to live
            Can't forget
                 We only get what we give
          
           This whole damn world can fall apart
        You'll be ok, follow your heart
      You're in harms way I'm right behind
   Now say you're mine

                               You've got the music in you
                            Don't let go
                      You've got the music in you
                  One dance left
            This world is gonna pull through
                Don't give up
                     You've got a reason to live
                          Can't forget
                              We only get what we give
                                  Don't let go
                                     I feel the music in you

                   Fly high, high
              What's real can't die
         You only get what you give
     You gonna get what you give

                    Just don't be afraid to leave
                       Health insurance rip off lying
                          FDA big bankers buying
                              Fake computer crashes dining

                 Cloning while they're multiplying
             Fashion shoots with Beck and Hanson
        Courtney love and Marilyn Manson
    You're all fakes

                           Run to your mansions
                              Come around
                                 We'll kick your ass in

               Don't let go
                 You've got the music in you
                    Don't give up
                 You've got the music in you
               You've got the music in you
