BLAH BLAH BLAH I LOVE EXAMS! (I"m going CRAZY!)

Exam week is really hitting me hard... It's hitting me so hard, i haven't blogged in almost a week!  I have done 3 exams so far
1) Music Theory= easy but hard at the same time
2) Aural Skills= quite easy  brightened my week
3) Keyboard skills= Ha funny story...

ITs just so upsetting when you practise so much and then you blank on your exam. I guess my keyboard exam didn't go that bad.... but it could of been SO MUCH BETTER! I have a busy week ahead of me.. 2 more exams! Music history and Intro to Christianity. Again its all about the right amount of care, (I should write a book about this)

Some more random sorrys
* I'm sorry Catherine and I have not completed those awesome lyrics for our song
* I'm sorry we haven't been posting enough (I know we have so many eager fans :D)
* I'm sorry the beginning of this post is so.... gloomy. ( I will do a happy one soon; as soon as this horrible week is OVER)

Some random wishes
* I wish a happy exam week for all of those music students and normal students. Don't work to hard kids!
* I wish for Christmas to come faster
* I wish i could be a sleep right now

Some random thank-youz
* Thanks for all of my loving friends and family that make my life AWESOME!
* Thanks to McDonald's for having the best food EVER!
* Thanks to my awesome school for having awesome but annoying education
* Thanks to all of you devoted readers that continue to check our blog even though we SUCK at posting!

LOVE,
Bre :D

The Cure for Not Being Able to Sleep.

Yes, as you can probably tell . I'm posting pretty late ate night. and the worst part is that it's a school night.  From lack of comfortableness and from so many other issues, sleeping is utterly impossible.. i think I've got 3 hours so far this night.  Well of course I decided to give up on sleeping and watch some TV.. TV SUCKS! there is literally nothing good on every time i try and watch TV,  so i decided that I was in the mood for a good chick flick . After I watched one,(maid in Manhattan) I got seriously addicted. Now I'm on to "music and lyrics" and after I plan to watch bride wars. 
I've made a few observations about the classic chick flick...

1) Chick flicks make love sound so easy- for half of the woman in this world, love takes a lot of effort. It's sad but SOOO true.

2) the men are always like 20989801 years older than the females- Lets get semi realistic. In today's society a 40 year old guy rarely dates a 20 year old. ... i don't know, it seems kind of ridiculous. But, I do appreciate the fact that the men they pick in these three movies are not the "perfect looking male".

3) All guys in chick flicks have guts..... in reality, guys are more passive than females....- Seriously guys go get the girl. No girl wants to have to put more effort to get someone than the guy does. If no one realises that

4) Who cares about the last 3 points- Keep on making chick flicks because they let girls dream and realise how important they are.

A FEW OTHER RANDOM THOUGHTS..

I should be studying right now because its exam time and i have SOOO many exams. My first one is on Thursday but I am so thankful that it is an open book exam. I know what you're thinking.. How much better can life be? I know i was asking my self the same question about it.

I've eaten so much chocolate in the last day.. i think it's getting to my head

2 days untill my birthday!

Because of how sick i feel, I am reallt dabating whether or not i should go to school today...

I should get back to my  movies,
Love,
Bre

Amazing People - like Little Drummer Boys

I found something amazing two days ago:
A video performance of "The Little Drummer Boy" made by Sean Quigley, a 16 year old from relatively-small-town Canada. It's an amazing video, partly because Sean created literally every part of the video, partly because the filming is just so beautiful, and partly because Sean, in his interviews, has only pointed to one person's inspiration and glory from the video - Jesus Christ, who Sean says Christmas is all about (PS - I agree!!)
Pretty inspiring stuff, especially coming from a 16-year-old high school student. Would we all be that bold?

Anyways, here's the link to the video! It's massed over 100,000 hits in four days, so be aware that it will soon be a hit!

God bless Sean Quigley - and may he have a very Merry Christmas!

A Short Pause for Personal Reflection

Wow, so I just looked back at our two most recent posts, and I realized we all of a sudden became very affirming towards out friends and family. I'm glad, actually, because sometimes I think I forget to affirm people - I mean, it's just so much easier to tease them, you know? Teasing is good (obviously it is, since I do it all the time), but affirmation is pretty awesome. I mean, how often does someone walk by you, and yell to you that you're beautiful? CORRECT ANSWER: Never! SEMI-CORRECT ANSWER: Rarely... ANNOYING ANSWER THAT IMPLIES THAT YOU ARE STUNNINGLY GORGEOUS: All the time!!!!!
But hey, the Beatles sang about love...I'm writing about affirmation - same difference! Love spreads affirmation and affirmation spreads love, so, I say, why not?

Thank you SO much for reading our blog! Reading it affirms me, and makes me see that you are someone is truly caring.

See?

How good did that feel?
(Correct answer: AMAZING)

Anyways, that's all for now - spread the affirmation!

A Poem for Brooklyn!

Your hair is beautiful.
Your eyes are blue.
You're a awesome singer \
We are in history.
History is kind of fun.
We just got our exam review.
This is our last class of history
We are supposed to make a graphic organizer.
We sing in chapel today,
and i am ringing bells.
You are beside me,
taking notes.
It's snowy outside.
I like the site you're on.

I hope you enjoyed this poem.\
Love, Bre

Awesome things like finishing essays, and sisters.

I am sitting in my basement right now, basking in the fact that I just finished a major research essay! I am also basking in the fact that I happen to have a sister who is absolutely confoundingly talented at writing music, and singing, and playing guitar. Like, seriously, if you give her three words, she can take those three words and turn them into a deep, meaningful, artsy and folky song. I just like her. There a certain things in certain people that we tend to aspire to, and her ability to turn ordinary life into something beautiful (through music) is something that I definitely aspire to. This is not the same sister who had the funny conversation with the telemarketer, btw. This sister read that blog post, and begged me to write a blog post about her - I told her that she had to do something funny, and then I would. But tonight she showed me something better than funny - and that is beauty! So, my dear Cecile, here is my blog post about you! May you continue to inspire beauty into the world... and may you also record a CD within the next one to fifty weeks.

love you!!
