IT FINALLY WORKED. At least, it looks like it's finished uploading. Who knows if it will ACTUALLY play. T_T It's taken blogger somewhere around an hour to upload this video. Forget uploading it on the Songs page, that doesn't work AT ALL. I'll try it again, though. Lol.
This video is of me playing piano. :D This is a preview of a song I'm currently working on. It's called "Nameless." because I was about to write "This song is currently nameless..." but decided "Nameless" as a name would be pretty cool. L" So enjoy. And if you have a better idea for a name, please leave it in the comments. ;)
Since I don't want this post to be a waste, I've decided to write about Fathers Day as well.
It was honestly pretty typical. We almost crashed, which was annoying considering some whack job decided to stop in the middle of the road to let people across the street when there wasn't even a cross-walk. Gr, lol. I would have started honking up a storm if I was driving. I guess it's a good thing for the rest of the world that I don't have my license. :P
Shortly after that incident we (Me, my dad, and Ell.) arrived at my grandparents. And, I must say, being there is so much more entertaining than TV. For example, here's what a typical conversation over there would go like.
G-pops: Who is that-is that Tommy?
G-ma: NO JOHN. That's PAUL.
G-pops: Oh, then where's Tommy?
G-ma: Tommy's not here.
G-pops: Oh....
(a few minutes later...)
G-ma: John your going to get the cake all over the place! Why are you cutting it?
NO THEY DON'T WANT A PIECE! NO that's NOT TOMMY. What are you
talking about?! Dear God I have no idea what to do with you....
(Then she turns to us and says very nicely....)
Would you like soemthing to eat?
G-pops: No I'm not hungry.
G-ma: I wasn't talking to you John!
G-pops: Oh... is that Tommy?
Yeah, this goes on for the entire duration of the visit. :P Sometimes I think G-pops is faking; just doing all this to get on G-ma's nerves, because, most everytime she startes to get frustrated, you can see a hint of a smile. :P
For my dad, we got him a floating TARDIS from Doctor Who. XP It's AWESOME. And, for the sake of awesome, I've included a pic. :)
What's on my mind: Nantes, Beiruit. I first heard this song from a friend who covered it on his youtube channel. I'm really falling in love with Beirut. Their music is beautiful, powerful, sad, and happy at the same time. <3 Oh and yeah I lied about doing this every post. Sorry. XP

Many people have the misconception that denial is a negative thing that only happens when you don't want to believe bad news and such. Well, they're wrong. :P
I don't know how many times I have told people about my upcoming tour to England, but it's become second nature to me. Same old story ect. Until yesterday, (16th) when BCC sent an email outlining our itinerary and packing list. I freaked out. Though I'm sure some of it was fueled by my moms birthday cake that I had consumed two pieces of, it was mostly stemmed from the fact that I'm going to England FINALLY sank in. I'm going to be on my own for two weeks, I'm going on a plane for the first time, I'm going to be on my own for two weeks (Yes, I said that twice on purpose. :P), and I'm going to be with people that are still kind of unfamiliar to me. It's all new and exciting, and......I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it all. I remember my first MLK (Martin Luther King Jr. Concert. Nationally televised. We call it MLK.) and it was completly overwhelming. Part of that was because I was going through so much at the time but I'm still going through a lot. I rememeber just going into the bathroom one time before the concert at Jordan Hall and just crying. Not because I was sad, really, just because I was stressed and being too hard on myself. MLK really was a lot of work though, I'm not saying tour won't be, but I'm going to look at it as more of a vacation. Especially since I have to take care of my mom so much nowadays. I'm going to learn all of my music before tour starts and just have fun and completly forget about everything. When we went on our mini tour to Vermont one of my roomies started lecturing us about tour saying "DO NOT be late and DO NOT get caught up in the drama because TK will hate you for the rest of the tour and it will not be pleasant." I was kind of worried because I have a habit of attracting drama (Haha, what an understatment.) but then I realized, so what? If everything goes wrong I'm still going to enjoy this trip. No matter what. I'm not going to be afraid and I'm going to be confident. The worst part? Everything good is easier said than done.
Lesson of the day: Eating cake and letting loose screaming around the house is good once in a while. The crash afterwords? BAD. XP
Happy Birthday, mom. :)

Wensday night I stupidly stayed up untill 2 A.M. because I didn't fully realize that I had a recording at WGBH the next day for my choirs christmas album. T_T
The next day I had no sense of planning. I had to wake up at 7 A.M to help my mom and that messed up my energy even more. I was getting a ride to my recording because the rest of my family was soposed to be gone before me. Well my ride came wicked early and I was still in my pajamas. I had to rush to get ready and sadly only had time to put on eyeliner. We got to WGBH and waited for a while until TK (our conductor) got there and we headed into the studio. It was absolutely soundproof. After talking for a while with TK we got to record and it was amazing. While we sang our songs we watched the lightning outside the ceiling to floor window. It was weird because we saw complete bolts of lightning that were very close but couldn't hear a thing.
Recording was a lot of hard work. I almost passed out in the car on my way home. We sang for 4 hours straight from 4-8 without food or a break longer than 10 minutes. I think it was very worth it, though. We had some cool choir moments too. Being able to sing with so many amazing people and acomplish the things we are acomplishing.....nothing gets better than that. I hope I can always have that. <3
In every post, starting with this one, I'm going to have a little "What's on my mind." section at the end. This post I have a song to share. It's Florence + The Machine, Cosmic Love. I have been listening to this song for hours and absolutely cannot get enough of it. I think both the music and this video are completly beautiful. I love how poetic she is in all her songs, especially this one.
Lesson learned: GET READY ON TIME. Even if you're in the middle of a mission on inFAMOUS. ;P

Hello! I used to write another blog that had restricted viewers but I couldn't keep up with it. I decided to make this one instead. I didn't like where the last one was headed and thought it would be a good idea to just start new and fresh.
This new blog will still keep some of the same stuff. As you can already see it has similar pages to what was on the last blog. I do have to warn anyone who hasn't read my blog before that I am very unedited. By that I literaly mean UNEDITED. There is going to be spelling problems, grammar problems, and a whole lot of "THEN THIS HAPPENED. THEN THAT. and that. then this." lol though I'll try and keep that to a minimum ;P
Oh and emotes. That's important too.
Also instead of focusing on my day-to-day life I'll be focusing more on my experiences and lessons learned. Though I'll probably still write about the crazy drama. Ugh. My life is crazy.
With that said I will never intentionally hurt, swear, or offend anyone. I want this to be a very friendly, serious, funny, silly, beautiful, and enjoyable blog for all ages like I know it can be. (Tear tear. :P)
With that said and my "Welcome!" post finished. I look forward to writing for this blog. :)
lOVe,
Molly
