Old Music

Is there anything better then old music? I mean really. Dean Martin's "That's Amore," "Memories Are Made of This," "Ain't That a Kick in the Head" "Sway," to only name a few. And Frank Sinatra. Oh that amazing voice of Frank. Come fly with me and the way you look tonight, don't get me started! And how could be forget Nat King Cole? Or Billie Holiday? Their music is all so amazing. I don't understand why it's not played more often. Quite frankly, it's 10x better then some of the music on the radio. Do I sound like an old person ranting about today's music, because really some of it is truly awful. Excluding Michael Buble that is. Have you heard the man? One word, BEAUTIFUL. His newest CD, Crazy Love, is one that I will never tire of, along with all of his other albums that is. Abby and I are going to his concert in March. On the floor, 22nd row baby! Let the count down begin! But don't get me wrong, I do like a lot of today's stuff, but nothing seems to beat the big band sounds and soothing voices of Frank and Dean and Nat King Cole, for me that is. :)

College-Go Aggies!

So I thought I would try out this blogging thing. I have a pretty big adventure ahead of me. College. I've been accepted to Utah State and at this point I think I want to study communicative disorders and deaf education. But who knows, I could very well change my mind. Tonight I signed up for housing. I'm planning on living with two of my friends in Snow Hall. I'm pretty excited. I've even started a "college corner" in my bedroom. It has colorful bath towls, a red hand mixer, a toaster, meausring cups and spoons, and a few other things. I've started getting things now and it's making me pretty excited! Now I have to make it through the last half of my senior year. Don't get my wrong, I'm having a great time, I'm staying super busy with student body officer stuff, band, choir, AP english, my....lovely....math class, and all that jazz, but I'm having a bit of seniorities. Don't worry, I haven't skipped any classes, and I don't plan on it but I think I'm just ready for a change. As nervous as I am to move out and live on my own, I am so excited at the same time!
