Video of the Day: What If

It's after midnight and I just finished an exam and a report on something that I haven't even read. Yep, bad. Why this frenzied (non-)scholarship at this late hour? I didn't have time to study today since I spent all day shopping for something that I'd really like to buy. Did I find what I wanted? Yes. Can I afford it? Yes, barely. Should I buy it? I don't know yet.

So, instead of sleeping on it or, at the very least, playing catchup for school... I'm looking at music videos. Is this sensible? Not really. Am I sensible? Not really. Otherwise I wouldn't be scraping pennies together mentally and thinking... what if?

I'm always doing this. It's quite annoying. Sometimes I imagine the scenario so realistically that later on I can't remember if it's really happened or if I only imagined it. Is this a sign of a mental disorder? Please say it isn't!

Anyhow, here's Babyface. Isn't he gorgeous? And so talented. Maybe that's what makes him so gorgeous. Whatever. Anyhow, here's something to watch before you, too, start wondering what if. It's funny the turns that our lives can take. Who knows where we'd be if we'd made different decisions. We'll never know.

Video of the Day: No Te Pido Flores

Woohoo! Today is an early day off because of Memorial Day. Gotta go and hit the dollar stores. I've got some major spending to do. No, not for me. For a special project. I'll show you more later. :) Have a good weekend!!



Definitivo este dolor
que me condena y me lastima
Sera la suerte quien decida
si me mejoro o me domina...

Video of the Day: Angelito

Today's video is due not to a lost love, but to a sad mood. It's okay, I'll get over it in a few hours. But while it's here, I think I'll just watch this video. The music is so sad. And the pictures are so cute. Some of them remind me of Edward Scissorhands. Was he emo? I admit it, I don't know what emo is. Yeah, I know. I'm not cool.

Video of the Day: Mientes Tan Bien

This is one of my most favorite videos ever. I remember understanding why she does what she does. It's all for her child. It's amazing that she never loses her joy in life, even in the face of her child's illness. She's a strong person and just handles her business. I want to be like her. Except for the whole dancing-on-a-pole part.

Video of the Day: Y Hubo Alguien

Please don't ask me how in the world I stumbled upon this. I have no idea. But I'm glad I did. Check it out. It's Army Lieutenant Bryan Thompson doing a fantastic cover of Marc Anthony's "Y Hubo Alguien" with the 1st Cav Army Band. Don't just listen to his voice... look at the video, too. These soldiers were stationed in Iraq when this video was taken. Can you believe it? These guys are amazing- and not just for how they jam.

Breaking Bread After the Storm

Have you ever had a really bad argument? The kind where accusations are made, voices are raised, tears are shed? As nasty as it can seem, this can help to get a weight off your chest and it can help to clear the air so that you can just move on.

Well, A. and I had one of those this weekend. I really don't think of it as an argument, though. For me it was just clearing the air, a way of communicating that otherwise wouldn't have come about. Regardless, such vociferous and teary communication can make a girl hungry. And, oh boy... did we eat! Then all was right with the world.

Video of the Day: Me

This is just a quick post to share a new song with you. Okay, maybe it's only new to me, but still! Whatever, I still love it. Enjoy. :)



You ask me if there's someone else
I replied yes, hell yeah
You asked me if it's another man, I say no
You laughed and say is it a woman, I say yes
Surprisingly you asked me for honey's name

And her name is me,
And she loves me more than you'll ever know
And I finally see that loving you and loving me
Just don't seem to work at all
So patiently, she's waiting on me to tell you
That she needs love
And to choose between you two, boy you know
If I have to choose, I choose me
