Its 70 degrees where I live today! It is March 12th and 70 degrees!!!! I am so excited to be welcoming spring early! It is beautiful out, not stuffy or sweaty or anything like that! Its wonderful, school is almost out, 13 weeks to be exact!
In case you are out of the viral video loop the song/video that has slowly worked its way up to the top 10 on iTunes is "Call Me Maybe" by Carly Rae Jepsen".
The song is extremely repetative, the chorus is repeated multiple times, the tune is catchy and the lyrics all together are farly easy to remember, all a perfect recapie for a hit. Honostly I cant tell if this song is popular because it is bad or beacause its bad but enjoyable at the same time, almost like a Justin Beiber song that you hate to admit you know all the lyrics to (unless you are a young girl in your tween years) I don't mean to offend any die heart Bieber fans out there.
The video for Call Me Maybe does one thing right though, it has an extreamly attractive "no-name" guy as their lead. I wont spoil the video but lets just say the "not so typical" ending is the icing on the cake...
I hope that where ever you are it is warm and that you enjoyed this catchy, somewhat headache material song and that you have colorful rest of your week! Until next time!

Irony vs Coincidence
I was driving this afternoon to my local grocery store and while I was driving "Lets Stay Together" by Seal came on and I have to say, I kind of laughed. Isn't it interesting that one of Seals #1 hits involves the theme of "Loving you whether whether times are good or bad, happy or sad" and yet he is in the middle of a divorce? To be honest I always get my "irony" and "coincidence" mixed up but either way it falls under one of these slots.
Here is the song in case you are musically interested:
It does make me sad to see these two split I have always admired them from afar as one of my favorite Hollywood couples. But now my thoughts are only on the kids, I hope that Seal and Heidi are able to work it out so that the kids do not lack one parent or feel awkward every time they are all together.

Ice Cream
This weekend my family and I took a trip to a popular ice cream place: Yogurtland.
Its extremely popular, there are multiple different flavors, the classic flavors, chocolate, vanilla strawberry and the odd ones such as red velvet cake (MJB''s favorite), cheesecake, lemon blueberry and tangerine. After you make your way down the line of flavors theres a spread of candy toppings and multiple syrups, its almost like being in Willy Wonkas Chocolate Factory. The line out the door was never ending. You also get your choice of a pink or lime green spoon (a souvenir to some) which is actually more thrilling then one would think!!
Along with a wonderful trip to settle my sweet tooth I went to the mall where I acquired three pairs of much needed pants (I was down to one pair!!) and perused my options for a new makeup fondation. I am happy to say with much deliberation I have fallen in love with the Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua! After one day of using the sample I am going to purchase it! Its a wonderful product-I have been complemented twice on my complexion and let me tell you- I do NOT have perfect skin.
I hope you had a wonderful weekend! Here's to a new week, spring is under way! I cant believe it, I am so excited for our patio furniture to be set out! Although it has not been a rough winter (with only 2 storms to its name) I am so excited for the warm weather!
As far as books go my new challenge is to read one book with in a 2 week time span. I give myself two weeks to finish one book, in most cases I have been able to finish in one depending on how good the book is. If you have noticed over to your right there are two books, The Fault In Our Stars and Why We Broke Up. The Fault In Our Stars is a witty, heart warming book that I read in one weekend sitting! I loved it so much I recommended it to everyone I saw the fallowing week! Its a MUST read! I loved it so much I was sad when it ended- I wanted more!!
Why We Broke Up is much more of a "sweet" read. You dont have to set aside time for it or worry about forgetting the previous chapter if there was a chunk of time between when you last read and when you start again. However the one thing that I LOVE and believe to be a treat is the art work. Each chapter has a minimum of two paintings! Its a wonderful surprise! The style of this book is also interesting, the narration is that of a girl writting a post-it note on items she is giving back to her now ex-boyfriend.
As you can tell my goal for filling my bookshelf is going strong! If you have found any of this interesting I highly recommend that you look them up! You will not be disappointed. Speaking of disappointment my short and sweet post has now turned into its own small novel, I bid you farewell, and until next time!
