Motivational Music Monday: Begin Again

I closed my eyes to take a  breather for what seemed like a minute or two and opened them to November. It's a bit ridiculous how fast this year has been flying by, it literally feels like a month ago I was writing my hello to 2013 post. I haven't actually been as inspired as I was in the beginning of the year but of course if you've read my last few posts here, you already know that.

Recapping on Concerts and Life

Hi guys, it's been forever and I apologize for that. I thought I should share with you what's been going on the past week weeks/months. So if you're still interested in reading what I have to write, I think I'll start with August because I really haven't gone into detail about life or concerts so this is just going to be a recap of what I've failed to write about. So let's get to it! :)

Therapeutic Writing on a Bad Day.

You know how people say when you get one piece of bad news it shouldn't affect the rest of your day because your day is what you make of it and if you make it awful then it will be awful but really no one has bad days? Not only was that a run on sentence but it's also not that true.

Recapin' on a White Blank Page

Hey guys, just a small recap today.

Inspiration Creeps at Night.

A couple of nights ago, I woke up at three o'clock in the morning and from that moment I was wide awake. Now most of the time I hate when that happens because obviously when I finally manage to fall asleep, it's time to participate for the day but this time was different.

School.

It's that time again.

If you're wondering how a 22 year old chick has so much acne on her face at the moment, hopefully this post clears that up for ya, no pun intended. Seriously though, stress makes me break out like no tomorrow.

Turns out, I forget things; recap.

Hey guys and gals, it's been awhile. Today is just going to be another recap so here it goes...

Reasons Not to Check Your Email, Vol.1

A few days ago, whilst checking my email, a message with the subject "friendly advice" popped up.

It stated the following:

Nostalgic for Success.

Sometimes, life is mean. Man, I really couldn't have sounded more cliche then I did right there within those four words and there will be more soon, like now. (->) People say, good things come to those who wait but exactly how long is this wait? If you're reading this to find some inspiring piece of happiness, you won't be finding it today. Maybe later or maybe tomorrow but definitely not today. Today, I'm a little bit more than bummed and frustrated with the world. I'm writing for me today, if you don't like it, you can go.

Oh hey April.

Today is April 23rd and this is my first post of the month.

If you've been an avid reader of Music and Teacups for the past two years you'll come to realize that April is never a good month for me to write, I don't know why but I'm always SO BUSY during this month. I figured I should do a recap since next week will be May.

Music Monday- Beer.

I'm in a nostalgic Ska Punk kind of mood today, so today I'm kickin' it old school and featuring Reel Big Fish.

everything's fine- be brave.

A year ago today I took a huge step out of my comfort zone and did something I never thought I would do in my lifetime; I got a tattoo. I’m sure most of you know that I have the words “everything’s fine” tattooed on my left wrist, why it’s placed there and why I chose those words you’ll never know. Well, until today; I decided with it being one year since I got the tattoo, it was time to share the story behind it, I’m a little nervous but I know it’s time to get this off my chest.

Music Monday on a Tuesday- One You Want

I know, I know, I'm not off to such a good start with my Music Mondays. I missed yesterday but hey, I figured better late than never. 

Si Se Puede

Today is Saturday, March 16, 2013, which means last night was the Cesar Chavez Scholarship banquet. The banquet I was granted the honor of being the Student Speaker at, did I finish my speech and read it or did I fail to do so and just wing it?

Music Monday- Boomerang.

Today I decided to do something different, today and every Monday hereon-after is now Music Monday. \m/

Saturdays.

So far I woke up at 7:12 a.m (I'm still failing to comprehend the reason why), did a tiny bit of shopping then lunch with my bff Gabby, came home and blasted The Lumineers then Bright Eyes because both fit perfectly with today's stormy skies and now I am currently writing here and watching The Office on Netflix.

Heavy Heart & Pretty Colors.

There are many things I should be doing right now; starting my speech, doing homework, writing my “everything’s fine-hmk” entry, cleaning my room, but my mind is cluttered and my heart is full with heaviness. Plus I figured writing here has always managed to help me before so why not see if it’ll help again.

Maybe Tonight- HMK.

I swear to you, just when I thought I couldn't love The Summer Set any more than I already do, they do something even more amazing. Whilst lying in bed last night I was browsing on Facebook since you know, Twitter is out of the picture till Easter, and I came across The Summer Set’s status update announcing that they are the Half Moon Kids.

Wake Up & Be Awesome, literally.

Does anyone remember when I last saw The Summer Set back in November at the The Rockshow at the End of the World tour? I wrote about how I met John Gomez at the end of the show and I gave him a letter telling them how much they meant to me but how I was wishing I would have told him instead.

You're such a lovely cup...

Good afternoon mah dears,
How are you all? Great, I hope. This is just a small PSA notifying you all that thingsthatrhymewithstudpid.blogspot.com is no longer a thing.

We All Roll Along.

I have a love/ hate relationship with my job. Don’t get me wrong, I love what I do and enjoy the environment, I just would rather be doing something more hands on. I would love to be up close with the members more, get to know their stories, get to know who they are as a person and look past their addictions and/or issues. Instead I’m an Office Assistant who inputs data, answers phones, makes copies and faxes/mail out things; days like this make me wish I were that much closer to graduating that way I could actually get a job in the field of social work.

Change of plans.

A little sacrifice can go a long way. I went to mass earlier and got inspired. I know I said what I was giving up already but things change. Aside from what I wrote before I made a few additions and posted it on Instagram. Here's the picture as well as the caption, goodnight my dears.

I didn't last; recap.

I've been on my social networking hiatus for about a week now and I missed Twitter so much that I reactivated it which then resulted in me losing all my followers and everyone I followed. Lesson learned Twitter, lesson learned. However when I logged on this morning everything was back to normal, weird. Anyway I should have done this Sunday because it would came in handy while fangirling over Fun., The Lumineers, Mumford and Sons, The Black Keys, etc on The Grammys.

Another F.U post.

I’m convinced who ever said ignorance is bliss was highly intoxicated. I think I’ve finally reached that point in my life where I’m just like “F this!” of course I mean the actual word though but I don’t cuss. I have zero tolerance for the ignorance of society, no matter your age (okay kids don’t count…maybe). I just fail to comprehend how individuals can be that naive and stupid. I know people have their opinions on things and I respect that, but because I do is that supposed to automatically mean that I can’t have an opinion of my own?

A late goodbye and an even later hello.

Another day is halfway gone and as I sit here with the Arizona sun beaming on my face, admiring the beauty behind this scene,  I’ve come to realization that my past two entries weren’t exactly a good way to enter 2013 blog wise. Come to think of it I didn’t even have a proper goodbye so if you care to give this a gander, this is my farewell to 2012, enjoy!

Can you keep a secret?

I had another late night visit from insomnia last night, I didn't fall asleep till around 2:30-2:40 ish. I'm convinced Mr. Sandman hates me. Anyway, I did alot of thinking obviously and I think I may have come to the conclusion on why my anxiety is so bad.

Growing old is getting old.

Have you ever felt so alone and irrelevant in life? Of course you have, everyone has. But have you felt it so much that it hurt to the point of anxiety? I have, in fact I am feeling it right now. I don't understand exactly why I'm feeling this way, I don't know maybe I'm not meant to understand but I'm hurting.
