Songs on Repeat
I’m one of those people that when I find a song or songs I like I can’t stop listening to them. I can literally listen to the same song on repeat for an hour car ride. Back when I was in high school, my friend and I would call these songs on repeat our “summer jams”. The current song on repeat for me is “Be Kind” by Marshmello and Halsey. It’s so good. I love the melody and the lyrics. I thought I would round up some songs (including “Be Kind”) that I’ve been listening to a lot lately. Some are old, some are newer. They’re just what I’ve been…

Queen T-Shirt
When I was placing a Walmart order a few weeks ago for coffee and things, I came across this fun Queen tee. Freddie Mercury’s face on the Queen playing card! The tee comes in white and black and I opted for the white. The graphic is not what I expected – it’s not printed on, it’s like it’s ironed on so the graphic feels plastic-y. But the tee is only $13, so for that price I don’t mind too much. I thought to go along with this tee I would list 5 of my favorite Queen songs. Bohemian Rhapsody is on the list of course. 2 of my friends and…

August 2019 Favorites
August was so crazy and busy that it felt like a really long month, but at the same time I can’t believe it’s actually September. In August I went to San Francisco for a week, had to wear my glasses for 2 weeks, had a birthday, went to see Backstreet Boys , had my first session of the Vbeam laser on my face, went back to work, got in to LIKEtoKnow.it and moved out of my townhouse. That is a lot of things! All in one month! Since I am exhausted from all the packing this weekend, let’s get right to my favorites in August. I’ll try to make it quick!…

July 2019 Favorites
Well, this summer is truly flying by and I’m not too happy about it. Why do summers always fly by? Especially as a teacher? There was so much I wanted to do this summer – a lot more writing than I’ve done (which is close to nothing), but I have a little bit of time left to maybe at least start my project and not be a total waste. Anyway, let’s get to my July favorites. There have been a few things this month that I didn’t just really like, but I seriously loved and became maybe, slightly obsessed with. First up, Pepperidge Farm Sausalito Cookies. It’s been a long…

Rent: Live (Sort of)
Did you catch Rent: Live on Sunday night? I watched it but since it didn’t end until 11 I wasn’t able to get a post up recapping my thoughts on it until today. So why do I have “Sort of” in the title? Well, when the show started there was a little caption in the corner that said “pre-recorded” and I wondered why. Was there something about the opening number that warranted it to be pre-recorded? After doing a quick search online I found out that one of the lead actors, Brennin Hunt, who plays Roger broke his foot the night before at the final dress rehearsal! It would later be…

Throwback Christmas Album Listening
Happy Friday! It’s my first day of winter break and it could not have come at a better time. I was just about to reach my limit before complete burn out. This week and a half I have off for break is probably going to fly by as usual, but I’m hoping I can carve out some much needed relaxation. It’s going to be pretty busy with Christmas and a short little trip – don’t worry I will be taking you along with me next week! In the meantime, today’s post was originally meant to be a round up of some Christmas songs – both old and more current –…

Goo Goo Dolls – Dizzy Up the Girl Anniversary Tour
Happy Friday! If you saw my blog post last week rounding up a few of my favorite Goo Goo Dolls songs then you know I went to see them in concert this week. To make a long story short, Goo Goo Dolls were one of my favorite bands in high school. I loved their music and frontman Johnny Rzeznik. High school was an okay time for me – I wouldn’t say they were the best years but they weren’t miserable either. I would say my high school years were typical and Goo Goo Dolls definitely were my go-to music when I wasn’t listening to NSYNC, Justin Timberlake, and other pop…

Goo Goo Dolls – Favorite Songs
Who here used to listen to/still listens to The Goo Goo Dolls? Back in high school my friend Amy and I absolutely loved them and listened to them all the time. I loved their catchy songs and lyrics and listening to their music got me through a lot of high school. Well, they are coming to town for an anniversary tour next week and Amy and I are going! We first heard about their concert months ago but tickets were sold out before we got the chance to buy them but we got really lucky and Amy won tickets! I’ve seen them in concert before (back in high school or…

Ed Sheeran at Metlife Stadium
This past Friday night I went to see Ed Sheeran in concert at Metlife Stadium. I’ve long loved his music, but this was the first time I saw him in concert and he was amazing live! I’ve seen him perform at awards shows on TV and late night shows etc. and I’m always in awe of how he can perform all on his own basically with just his guitar and loop pedal. I wanted to give a little recap of the evening so keep reading if you want to hear about it! My friend and I bought tickets just a few weeks ago for this show. We bought tickets in…

August 2018 Favorites
Can you believe it’s already September? I can’t! Even yesterday when it was the last day of August, it didn’t really hit me that it was the end of August. I have just a few favorites to share this month. I feel like I’ve been saying that a lot lately, but I think when you’re busy you just have less time to think about what you’re really loving lately. First up, if you follow my blog and/or my social media accounts regularly then you know I spent the first half of August in Japan and Hong Kong. While in Japan we had pretty great weather, despite sweating to death in…
