The Beatles and Country Music

Welcoming the summer season with a big grin. :)

So at first it was strange not having to worry about studying for classes and trying to fit in my next scheduled naptime. Now I'm really enjoying my time off of school.



Lately I've been working a lil more and that's ok. I need hours (and by hours I really mean money). Other than that I basically have been spending the summer swimming and spending time with my girls. The norm now days is swimming, but mostly with harmony. We have been at my gram's place quite often and that is mostly b/c I've temporarily moved out.

Moving down the street into my gram's place probably isn't the same experience as it would be if I were to move into an apartment where I actually paid rent and bought my own groceries. It is close though, I think. I honestly just wanted the experience and I had a pretty good reason to move out for a bit. Pretty sure today is the one week mark. It's just been weird not having "my" bathroom and sleeping in another bedroom that used to be uncle Nate's for awhile. But hey, it's been fun having a pool right outside the door.

-I've moved out now- after a week I was starting to experience the homesickness phenomenon. It was fun living there for a week but I've learned a few valuable lessons. I don't think I'll be taking advantage of what I have ever again. EVER. I missed having internet access. Truthfully. It is kind of sad that we use it for what we do. Myself included. I check my facebook, twitter and instagram like it's the morning paper.

You're probably wondering what the title's significance is. Even if you weren't, I'll tell ya anyway. So recently we have been talking a lot about music. And ya, I feel like the Beatles and country music has become my two mains. Country music is something we all have in common and honestly if I'm lonely, I listen to some. The Beatles are a group I can't believe I went without listening to. Before my friends came into my life, I was pretty limited to what I listened to. Now I feel like I've really expanded my horizons.

I've got a thing for Carrie Underwood :) 

"With the Beatles" album. I just like the artwork. a lot. :) 


This summer's adventures have been like 98% swimming and the other 2% are spent working :] At first I was like, meh I'm not getting tan. Then I took a closer look at myself and wow was I ever wrong! I was pretty excited to see such a dominant line. I'm totally bummed I can't post it here though, cause apparently blogspot doesn't like uploading .tiff files.


So lately I've been learning to braid. Yes really. I'm 20 and don't know how. I do now though! It just requires a lot of practice-like anything else. I promise it doesn't look quite as good as how I have it in the picture above, but hey.

TTFN! :)
