Video of the Day: Not Gon' Cry

I've always loved Waiting to Exhale. The story is terrific. It's great how these women (all wronged by their good-for-nothing men) all end up getting something good by the end of the movie. Not to mention, it has a terrific soundtrack! Here's one of my favorite songs. Sing it, Ms. Mary J.

Updated on 3/23/2009 to change the video to that of a live performance. The video that went to the movie had the audio taken off for legal reasons.

Video of the Day: Over You

Are you getting sick of these videos? :) I'd love to post other stuff, but it's been super busy. So, in the meantime I'll keep taking mental note of songs that mean something and keep posting them here. At least it's not sucky music, right? Although it is a bit eclectic! Today's song isn't my usual style, but it still rocks.

Video(s) of the Day: A Hard Day's Night

Good news... Although I really can't afford to replace anything my pretty pink camera, at least I have a laptop again. No more having to make-do without online access. Now I can do schoolwork and other fun stuff at home again. Yay!! Of course, it's not as nice as the one that was lost, but it will definitely do the job. :)

Video of the Day: Nada

Juanes. The music video to this song is too sad. Here's a nicer live performance instead!

Good People

You know how they say that bad things can happen to good people? Well, then my family and I must be very good people for all the bad that's happened to us. That's a good thing, right? If anything, it shows the true nature of the people around us. Some who we considered friends and felt to be family didn't live up that name. Others who we did not quite consider as such have stepped up and have proved invaluable sources of support and assistance.

Remember when I said that our family was now smaller? Over the past week, it's actually gotten bigger. Some family/friends may actually be moving in with us. They've been staying with us for the past week, so it already feels as if they've moved in. Now, instead of a quiet home on the mend, we have a home that's full of laughter and positivity. This hasn't left a lot of time for studying, but then again, after recent events I no longer even have a computer at home! Not to mention the loss of my beautiful pink Kodak. That's fine, though. Material things can be replaced. True family and friends are priceless.

Video of the Day: Tu Me Salvaste

This song is dedicated to my beautiful, big-headed (or is that pig-headed?) daughter. Things are a bit rough right now, but we're making it. She's amazing and she's a true inspiration. She helps me find meaning in each day. She's saving me.

Video of the Day: Shake It Off

This morning I stumbled across my baby girl's birthday mix CD. It has this song on it. It seems like an appropriate song for today, this week, this month, whatever. Mariah says it all. Just shake it off.
