500 Days of Summer...and stuff


So, I just spent my whole day holed up in my basement watching 500 Days of Summer. Featuring the OMG-SO-ADORABLE Joseph Gordon-Levitt and a personal favorite of mine, Zooey Deschanel. Without giving much away (for those of you who haven't seen it yet), I'll say that it was gorgeously and very artfully done. I enjoyed it immensely just for the camerawork. But honestly the best part was the soundtrack. EXCELLENT, excellent soundtrack. I mean like, every single song i sang along with. like a retard. Anyway, the story was based on the relationship of Joseph Gordon-Levitt's character, Tom, and Zooey's, Summer. Heart-wrenchingly realistic. I fell in love with Tom and could relate remarkably well (I regret to say) to the somewhat-hateable character of Summer. Also, there was quite possibly the most spot-on music scene I've ever seen in which Joseph Gordon-Levitt's (gosh i hate typing that name) character dances in the streets to "You Make My Dreams" by Hall & Oates. Just. Amazing. So, great music, artfully done, painfully realistic but still enjoyable. Go watch!

Chromeo


Recently in love with their songs Bonafide Lovin, Fancy Footwork and Mama's Boy. I get in these techno-y moods sometimes, nothing can stop me. I have to rock out. Show me that fancy footwork.

A really beautiful girl


So, if any of you dont know who Karen Peris is... she's the singer of the band The Innocence Mission, a duo of herself and her supremely talented husband Don Peris. She possesses an angelic quality to her voice which absolutely confounds me. I met her once before seeing the band play a couple years back, and she was as kind as her voice hints at. Also disarmingly beautiful, in a strangely approachable way. Favorites include 'Follow Me' and 'Lakes of Canada'.

Lets make this cool

So, I just went to Ulta in nothing but an over-sized tee shirt and boots. No makeup and unwashed hair. Just to freak out all the pretty primp-overdosed beauty queens there. I bought some conditioner so they didn't throw me out. Such a satisfying trip.

MGMT


Officially artist of the month for me. MGMT, a fantastic band featuring the ever-exquisite Andrew VanWyngarden and Ben Goldwasser. Favorite tracks include 'Electric Feel' and 'Time to Pretend'. Boogie down!
