I was trying to think of something awesome and creative to write about but I've had a terrible headache all day, and I think it's cutting off creative blood circulation or something.
So, sorry I have nothing good to say.
This is lame. I'm going to try and study or something.
Later peeps.

GREEN: Bringing you the love
My Valentine’s Day was super. One because it turned out much nicer than I expected.
Two because I got this CD:

This is seriously the greatest album I’ve ever listened to. I said that about City and Colour’s last record too, but this is possibly even better.
Every single song is so amazingly written and just. . . beautiful. I was really looking forward to this CD’s release, but listening to it even exceeds my expectations.
The tracks cover themes of love, death, and the philosophies of life that very much show the honesty in Dallas Green’s writing. The songs are comprised mainly of Dallas’s raw voice, over strumming acoustic guitars, harmonica, and tambourine.
My personal favourite track is The Girl.
This album is just. . . wow.
If you appreciate really good music, get it. Now.
“You don’t ask for no diamond rings, no delicate strings of pearls. That’s why I wrote this song to sing, my beautiful girl.” - The Girl by City and Colour

TITLE: Coolest Album Cover Ever

This is the coolest thing I've ever seen. I got this CD almost a year ago; it still amazes me though.
It may not look very cool to you, but if you have the CD or if you happen to buy it, you'll understand.
It's Bright Eyes- Cassadaga. Look it up, yo.

CELEBRATE: God, I hate this month
Welcome to February, the strangest of all months! 'Strange?,' you may ask, and I will answer. For one, it’s spelt fe-BRU-ary, but pronounced by most as FEB-u-ary. . . not quite sure why. It also has only 28 days, contrary to the other month’s 30 or 31. Though, this February is even stranger, because it’s a leap year, therefore it has 29 days. As well, February is home to some of the most useless holidays such as Groundhog Day (today) and my personal least favourite, Valentine’s Day. Hopefully no offense taken to those of you who happen to be very fond of furry hibernating rodents predicting weather, or nauseating frills, hearts, candy and chocolate, cheesy cards, teddy bears with ‘I Love you’ messages, flowers, and sickening amounts of pink.
So what can you expect to be reading from me in February? Well, some Valentine’s playlists for whatever your situation, as well as something about album covers, and maybe even a few interesting test for your musical knowledge. Sounds fun? Well I hope so ‘cause we all need something to get us through this ridiculous tumult of a month.
So in conclusion, Happy freakin’ Fe-BRU-ary everybody.
