What’s to come? – November Sneak Peek
November started with a nice long weekend, which I made longer by being sick. Yay me! On top of it some nice changes are going on in my life, so I could kick this month off on a good note. Honestly I don’t expect much from this month excitement wise. I’ll read a few books, will post things. We’ll have all of our SPFBO semi-finalists ready too so the real fun can began.
Music Monday: #JOY by Kállay Saunders Band
Today I wanted to choose a song with a positive message. I’ve been in a good mood these days, because personal reasons, so I’ve been browsing my mp3 player to see what I have for this. I’ve picked #JOY because I love its message. And I also know how much a nice word, or a smile can mean and brighten your day. The music itself is not exactly happy, but whatever. I am.
Monthly Wrap Up: October 2018
Wait. What happens with time? Someone speed it up! It can’t be November already! Where is my October??? Give me a moment while I panic, will you?
*panics*
Okay, I’m better now. I’m a bit behind on posts because I had become sick after returning from the UK, so a review and my post about said UK trip will be up later this week, thus they will count as November posts. So, let’s see what I had in store for you in October:
Music Monday: Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) by Green Day
I had a really hard time choosing between The Sound of Silence and Stan sooo I went and choose a third one. Actually, it’s pretty fitting. I did have a great time. Maybe not the time of my life, but great fun nonetheless.
Music Monday: G.O.A.T by Theory of a Deadman
I choose G.O.A.T by Theory of a Deadman because I wanted something to reflect my mood (well, okay, I always choose songs like that, duh.) It’s an upbeat song, kind of a preptalk to myself that I can do this, I can get through this weekend and it’ll be awesome.
We Sold Our Souls by Grady Hendrix
This book has everything you might wish for: a dark tale, gritty scenes, a crazy road trip, monsters, relatable characters and metal. We Sold Our Souls is the perfect bland of prose, characters, the darker side of the world and so many great quotes that I had to restrain myself to use them all.
Music Monday: Angel by Poets of the Fall
I probably could pick about a dozen songs, but they just released their latest album Ultraviolet about 2 weeks ago. I gave them a quick listen then, but I was distracted with many other things and I only just got around to pay attention. I was about to go to sleep but I was still chatting with a friend when this song came up. It struck a chord in me and then saw the title. Angel.
Music Monday: It’s My Life by Bon Jovi
Bon Jovi is one of those bands I don’t particularly like, but even so managed to have an impact on me. There are about 10 of their songs I listen to when I feel a sudden urge to put them on. It’s My Life is one of those songs everyone knows and I just can’t help myself dancing and singing along when I hear it. For some reason I thought it was older, but turns out it was released in 2000. In retrospect, it’s already 18 years old. Damn. I still love it so who cares. Also, it has a pretty simple message which applies no matter how old you are.
What’s to come? – October Sneak Peek
October. I have a confession to make: this is the month I hate the most. Or more like, this month seems to hate me the most. Anyway, I’m determined to break the curse this year.
