Lady Killers ♥

For your viewing pleasure...I've compiled the current top three lady killers on the inter-web and for the first time ever, they're all here together ;)

3)                                                                    

With stylish threads and smooth words, who can resist number 3?
He's not small...he's fun-sized.
Gotta love the young 'uns ;)

2)    

He is the epitome of the suave, worldly
gentleman. He's been featured prominently
on television and has spawned countless
memes. Let's give it up for Number 2, *snicker*
"the Most Interesting Man in the World".

Oh, Hai There!

It's been a while, my lovelies...
I'm sorry I've been off the radar for a while here, but I'm baaaack!

How can you not forgive me on behalf of this cutie? ;)

Pip pip cheerio! ♥

Book Review: Then Sings My Soul 3 by Robert Morgan

  

Then Sings My Soul 3 is the latest addition to a wonderful series by Robert Morgan. Then Sings My Soul is an amazing collection of books that explore the meanings and stories behind the hymns of faith that still prevail today. Getting to know the events behind these songs truly add to the experience of singing them and the depth of the background surrounding the hymns is truly astonishing.

  While I've personally never heard many of these hymns before, this only added to the joy of reading this book because it gave me the chance to discover so many new beautiful pieces of music. I love that fact the Morgan chose both new and old hymns, allowing readers to experience a wide range of music. Then Sings My Soul 3 is divided into sections that include some history on the writing and creation of hymns, some early hymns, as well as six hymns with words and lead music included. Truly a treat for any music lover!

Book Review: Surprised By Laughter - The Comic Word of C.S. Lewis

The name C.S. Lewis brings back fond childhood memories of The Chronicles of Narnia. Of a magical land which could be reached through a wardrobe, of talking animals and wicked witches. So I was overjoyed to receive the book,  Surprised By Laughter: The Comic Word of C.S. Lewis by Terry Lindvall, in hopes of learning more about this acclaimed novelist.

  To be honest, I wasn't quite as familiar with Lewis's non-fictions works  in comparison to his children's literature. Lindvall's wonderful biography highlighted many key aspects of Lewis's life that were previously unknown to me. Surprised By Laughter is the trade paperback edition of a hardcover book, and at 486 pages, it's not a lightweight-neither in size nor content. The author takes us on a journey through Lewis's life, from his childhood as an atheist, to adulthood as a Christian as well as his becoming of a well known theologian and apologist.

The Boy Least Likely To

Just discovered a lovely new -well, new to me- band, and wanted to share them with you guys! The Boy Least Likely To is an English pop indie band composed of the very talented duo Pete Hobbs and Joff Owen.

 
After listening to their first album, The Best Party Ever, I do believe I've fallen in love. Many songs in this album have a really nice laidback, catchy beat, with a couple different ones thrown into the mix like Monster and The Battle of The Boy Least likely To that are a little sadder or creepier.

My Winter Rut ... Seasonal Affective Disorder?

So I've been away for quite a while, and as always, I have my excuse ready and prepared. Only this time the excuse is rather legitimate for once :/

It's funny how simple this flow chart to happiness is. 

It's almost deceptive to think that there's a "formula" and that if one follows it, happiness can be achieved.

But there probably is.

It's out there.

We just have to find it. 

It's 4 AM...

I think I've finally made the transition from getting 5 hours of sleep a night and being a walking zombie during the day to full on insomniac. It's a weird state of being, because it's somewhat by choice, more brought on by routine rather than by stress or medical background :/ Anyways, this is the music I listen to in the dead of the night.

 I'm gonna lose and go for a ride, seeming that I've got time.
 So let's lie, in the sun, 
 You didn't want the world to know, 
That I'm not strong and you'll find out 
How your girl likes rock 'n' roll. 
So let's swoon and get high, 
 You know you better come and get right, 
And I don't know if we're still alive, 
But the best comes back tonight. 

-Daniel Powter, Song 6

 After listening to this song repeatedly, at 4 am in the morning no less, this is what I've derived from this indie singer's croonings. I know the lyrics floating around on the web are different, but honestly, this is what I heard. Anyways, love the song, very laid back. It has me thinking about balmy days on the beach, even though it's the middle of winter here :/

Holla, 2012!

A happy, happy New Years to all those out there! :D
Goodbye twenty eleven, HEEELLLO TWENTY TWELVE!

New year, new start, new dreams ♥
