STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS

WOW.
Just..
WOW.
If you haven't seen this movie, you definitely should -as soon as possible. Now, I can't give any spoilers about the movie, the plot, ANYTHING, so have to be vague; however, I can tell you this is the best Star Trek movie so far, the cast was AWESOME (Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH, Zoe Saldana, everyone), the movie looked FANTASTIC, it had the right mix of humor and action with a fairly strong dose of pure heartbreak (NO SPOILERS, so I have to stop there!!!) to make it an excellent kick off to the summer movies. (SIX OUT OF FIVE STARS!!) 
Yeah, that rating doesn't *technically* exist, but I'll make an exception for this.
A MUST-SEE!!!

Over and out. Rinse. Repeat.

THE COVERS!!!!

Hey guys! (Told you I'd be back! ;D)

During my time away from blogging, I found quite a few awesome covers of popular (ish?) songs, check them out, they're DEFINITELY worth listening to!!

"Carry On" by Fun - Cover by Madilyn Bailey, Peter Hollens, Ali Brustofski, Jrice, Runaground, and Skylar Dayne

Hey, does you guys remember that cover Walk Off The Earth made of "Somebody I Used to Know", and it was five people on a guitar? (Link just in case) I found this cover; it's SIX guys, and *almost* the entire cover is done on a single ukulele they're all playing AT THE SAME TIME!!! It's just AWESOME!!! :D

Radioactive (Imagine Dragons) - Cover by Lindsey Stirling and Pentatonix

(NOT a cover, per say, but a bunch of covers all mashed up into one awesome medley) Evolution of Music - Pentatonix

Game of Thrones Theme - Orchestral Cover

Grenade (Bruno Mars) - Symphony Orchestral Cover

The Hobbit - Misty Mountains - Orchestral Cover

The Green Tones - Bottoms Up (Trey Songz ft. Nicki Minaj) - Acappellooza 2012 (a capella)

There's probably more, but enough for this post!

Until we meet again.
Over and out. Rinse. Repeat.

Hey Guys!!

Confession: I'm a lousy blogger to follow. :D Really, though - I'm so sorry I haven't blogged in so long!!

Even worse, I don't have a good excuse for my absence from the blogging world; if anything, it was a mixture of being very busy and procrastinating on the time that I wasn't busy. ARGH!! See? Not a good excuse.

ANYWAYS, though, in summary -I'm back, and I'm definitely going to try to blog regularly and, more importantly, about interesting things.

My last post was (HOLY BANANA COW) in January, so here's a VERY brief recap of my life since then....
  • My sister moved out; you know that feeling that, even though someone moves out/moves away, their drama never ACTUALLY leaves? It's exactly like that! GRRR!!!!
  • I was accepted at a summer camp!! :D The camp is called Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp, where I will be studying violin (intensely) for 11 days this summer in the orchestra program; I'm VERY excited about going!!
  • My mom went back to college 
  • (LAST BUT NOT LEAST!!) I start college this fall (O.O)!!  
No, I didn't have a lot to recap on (I've probably forgotten something somewhere, but all in all: boring winter/spring '13), which is mostly depressing, but there it is.

:)

Until next time!! 
Over and out. Rinse. Repeat.
