Today, I’m just winding down what has been a pretty uneventful spring break, but I can’t wait to bring these songs to you. There are some MASSIVE tracks that I have been playing on repeat for a while now, and I cannot wait for you to hear them. Let’s get started.
First up, as always, here’s [...]

5SF: march 12
Published by March 12th, 2010 in five song friday, music musings and music suggestion. 1 Comment… and no update.
Things are okay with me, just still chugging along, making my way through nursing school; one day at a time. It’s spring break this week, so it has been nice to just relax all week (even though I should have been studying). Either way, things are going well my way; nothing [...]
5SF: february 26
Published by February 26th, 2010 in five song friday, music musings and music suggestion. 0 CommentsToday, I am writing you from my prison of the last few days; I am laid out in my home after throwing my back out on Wednesday. It goes without saying, that right now, I am not a happy camper. However, that will not stop me from bringing you the 5SF I promised you this [...]
well, I guess that wasn’t SO hard…
Published by February 19th, 2010 in all about me, five song friday and school. 1 CommentI just finished my second day of clinical rotation at Grady, and I can definitely say that I am going to learn to breathe exclusively through my mouth when doing certain tasks.
Overall, the experience has been extremely overwhelming, but I think that with time, I will be more accustomed to things. I knew nursing [...]
first day of clinical tomorrow
Published by February 17th, 2010 in all about me and school. 3 CommentsSo as the title of this post indicates, tomorrow is my first day of nursing clinical rotations at Grady hospital.
I am officially freaked out; mostly because I don’t know exactly what to expect. I am just hoping that fear/stress turns into confidence/belief in myself very early on in the day, because while, deep down, [...]
Yes, you are reading that correctly; the five song Friday is BACK. As I have alluded to previously, I have been a bit busy with leaving my job, and starting nursing school; but that hasn’t stopped my passion for discovering and sharing new music. Today will have five songs that I have discovered since the [...]

Published by January 22nd, 2010 in listen up!, music musings and music suggestion. 1 Comment6: Silversun Pickups – Swoon
Silversun Pickups really remind me of high school a lot, in that their music reminds me of the way that I felt when I first truly knew that I loved music. Much like the way early Smashing Pumpkins got me into alternative rock, the Silversun Pickups picked up that torch [...]

Published by January 18th, 2010 in listen up!, music musings and music suggestion. 1 CommentFirst off, is anyone still paying attention? Sorry for the delays for those of you that are… Alright, so I know what you are thinking, and YES, I promise to finish this damn countdown. This past week was my first week of nursing school, and as a result, I have been crazy busy. However, that [...]

Published by January 7th, 2010 in music musings and music suggestion. 2 Comments16: Band of Skulls – Baby Darling Doll Face Honey
Using jangly guitars, banging beats, and sounding like a well-made mash-up of Chrissie Hynde and the White Stripes, Band of Skulls take heavy influences from classic rock and completely rock out on this fantastic album. Perhaps it is the pairing of the male and female [...]
