Goodbye Christmas Music

You would think that my favorite part of the holiday season would be the gift giving and receiving. For me, it's actually the holiday music. I can always indulge in the shopping, partying, and baking. But the music is really only appropriate between late November and Christmas day.

I was driving back from the family party when Wham came on. After that, I decided to turn the radio off and make that my last song for the season.



Even if you hate the song, the music video is epically awesome. SNOW and SEXUAL TENSION and CABINS and TACKY XMAS SWEATERS! Isn't that what we all want our holidays to be like?

Christmas may be over but there is still plenty of celebrating and fun to be had. I hope you all had a very merry Christmas.

Just Half in Love




The Mystery Jets
"Half in Love With Elizabeth"

I am just oh so hooked on this song.

The part that I really like the most is probably the intro where the first screen shot is faded out with the building. IDONO. I just really like the song and wanted to share with anyone who has yet to hear it.

Werd.

SOOOOOOOOO..............

...I've kinda been lazy with blogging. Well, I have been occupied with finals and such so I think that is a good enough excuse for lame posts.

BUT... Here is another lame post. There will be some entertaining ones soon (believe me!)

ANOTHER SNOW PIC! This one is of the alley I live in. The snow kind of gives our dark alley a really warm feeling.
AND
...PUMPKIN FUDGE! I made it for a holiday party I went to last night. It was a hit for sure. Thank you Smart Cookie.

The First of Many Holiday Parties

So, my roommate wanted to have his Alaska friends over for dinner. I thought this would be boring because of the fact that I wasn't part of the trip. So I decided to have us all bake desserts and have a bake off.
These treats were our dishes. Pumpkin spice fudge cookies with banana slices along side chocolate pumpkin pie with a graham cracker crust.
Good people, food, and atmosphere. GO HOLIDAY PARTIES!

FIRST SNOWWWW!!!

After an irregulary hot winter, the first snow has come.

Just yesterday I thought that I would miss the warmth and sun once it got cold. But after having the snow for just one day I decided that it felt right. It even gave me a better holiday feeling.

Yeah, the most enjoyable part of the snow has been taking bike rides and skidding. I've already crashed once because of this.

Biking and Winter equal concussion!
