Music Musings

Hey Y'all!
I have been going crazy listening to all sorts of new music lately. So, I wanted to share five of my favorites at the moment. (Definitely, does not even cover it all). These put me in a good mood, and some I just love without explanation. But I find my self hitting rewind and listen to them again, and again. Well, here they are in no particular order. If you like any of these songs, then check out their other songs, because all of these artists are fantastic!!

1. Thieves- Rusty Clanton:

2. Pompeii- Bastille: 

3. This is the Beginning- BOY: 

4. River and Roads- The Head and the Heart:

5. Hey, Asshole- Watsky ft. Kate Nash

Billy Bob's

Hey yall'!!

This post is a little late for me, but so many things have been happening at school and at home for me to be posting lately. And, I know it is a lame excuse, but it is true. (:
Anyways, my best friend's sister had her 21st birthday a couple of weeks ago, and for that we all went out. We went to Billy Bob's: Texas' Largest Honky Tonk. They have everything! Dancing, bands, music, pool, and even live bull riding. Because, her sister is super-duper country, she decided to teach us some line-dancing, and some two-step. Which I have to admit is not as hard as I thought (even though I still messed up pretty bad). It was a ridiculous amount of fun, and I got to do many things which I had never done before! Like play pool, which is really surprising to me that I have never played. But,  let's just say I will probably never play again, because my pool playing skills are even worse than my line dancing skills. And watching the bull riding was pretty neat too. Although it was really dangerous, it was fun to root on the people riding the bulls, to see if they could hold on longer. And last but not least, I finally got to wear my new boots!!
Going to Billy Bob's was definitely an experience. And, if you ever get a chance to go line dancing, I say just go for it! It is super fun, and if you are with your friends you can always have fun just dancing like crazy! (:
Get out there and dance!
Until next time,
Christine (:

Evidence of me actually attempting to two-step,
and the disco-ball saddle in the middle.  

I wore a red, loose button down shirt, jeans,
and my boots of course! 

I Love it!

Today I thought I would start something new. So, I decided this would be the perfect way to share 5 of my favorite, "I love it" things that I find interesting or super cool enough to share with yall'. Here we go!

NUMBER ONE

I am loving the big curl/messy hair style, and the ombre. Zoe is a blogger from Zoella on YouTube is probably my hair envy of the moment. Her hair is always gorgeous!  

NUMBER TWO

Miranda Lambert is one of my favorite singers. Her voice is incredible, and  her songs are always empowering. She does not take anything from anyone. Her new music video for "Mama's Broken Heart" came out recently, and it is hilarious. I love it!! 

NUMBER THREE

One of my love-it items in makeup this week are the Archie's Girl Collection from M-A-C.  I love the theme of the collection, with the opposite of the two color ranges of the makeup, which represent Betty and Veronica. My personal favorite is the Pep-Pep-Pep Creme Nail Polish from the Betty side of the collection.  

NUMBER FOUR

My birthday was last weekend, so you know what that means... lots of cake, and yummy desserts! My friends are the opposite of me when it comes to cooking and baking, and are natural pros. So of course I was given many sweet treats. But, my favorite is strawberry cake! And I have to say that has got to be one of my love-its for this week (even though it means extra gym time). 

NUMBER FIVE

Last but definitely not least, is one of my favorite web series of the moment, The Lizzie Bennet Diaries. It is based on the classic novel, "Pride and Prejudice", but set in modern times. Lizzie posts video blogs twice a week, which are adaptations of the happenings in the novel, and perfect little doses of drama to keep you watching. The videos are hilarious, the story is great, and it is a remake of one my favorite books. I love it! If you want to check it out go here. 

I hope yall' like my love-its. They are all really fantastic, and picked them out to share specifically with all of you. Next week I will have some more of my fave 5 love-its. 

See yall' later! <3 

Bastille

This is one of my favorite bands of the moment: Bastille. I was so excited when I heard they were coming to America (Texas too!), but disappointed when I found out that they were playing in Austin when I couldn't go. But, if you live in the Austin, Texas area and want to hear a band with amazing vocals, I would check out Bastille! They are going to be at SXSW, in March on the 13th, 14th and 15th. Their originals are amazing, and have two sets of covers that they recorded (which also integrate famous movie quotes). Their sound is incredible in recording, so they will sound even better live! If you want to listen to some of their music or check out those dates, you can go here. Check em' out!
