Saturday 9: I'm a Believer

1) This song is about a guy who fell in love when he saw her face. Do you believe in love at first sight? Absolutely

2) "I'm a Believer" is the best-selling Monkees song. Can you name another one? No, I can't.

3) On their TV show, the boys competed for the same girl. Have you and a friend ever been romantic rivals? No, and any ex-boyfriends are off limits too.

4) In another episode, the Monkees visited the circus. If you were confident there was a good strong net beneath you, would you walk across the high wire? Sure, why not?

5) The Monkees show originally aired on Monday nights. Do you have a favorite day of the week? I like weekends because I don't have school and I'm free to do whatever.

6) Davy Jones guest starred on an episode of The Brady Bunch. The plot revolved around Marcia's efforts to get him to perform at the prom. Share one of your memories from a school dance. Homecoming my junior year took place right after I got out of the hospital. I looked horrible in all of the pictures. It was a disaster!
   
7) At the height of their popularity, the Monkees' faces and logo appeared on a lot of merchandise, including lunch boxes. Which would you rather have for lunch -- chicken salad, tuna salad or egg salad? Any of the above... I like them all!

8) You have an afternoon all to yourself. Would you rather spend it at the mall, checking out what's new in the stores and people watching, or walking through the forest, observing the birds and trees and leaves? At the mall.

9) Do you have a good memory for names? Yes I do.

Friday 5 ~ The Grass is Always Greener

Here's my answers for the Friday 5. You should do it too!

1. What’s something non food-related you have to go to a nearby town to do because the town where you live doesn't have it? Go shopping at Lane Bryant.
2. What’s something you go to a nearby town to do because your town’s version of it isn’t as good? Go grocery shopping... We don't have a Harris Teeter in the town I live in.
3. What’s something people in nearby towns come to your town to do? Probably nothing lol
4. In what way are residents of a nearby town different from residents in your town? They're a little more fast paced I'm sure. I kinda live in podunk lol.
5. Many towns give themselves nicknames, like “______ Capital of America” or “America’s ___________est Town” or “Home of __________.” What would be a good nickname along these lines to give the town where you live? The town that used to be a Lake? I don't know lol. This is hard!

Showing Some Love ~ Hump Day Blog Hop

If you're anything like me, you instantly think of Geico's commercial with the Camel anytime you hear the words Hump Day.

HILARIOUS! Right?
This particular Hump Day is special, exciting and nerve-wrecking all at the same time for me. Today is Final Exam day for my Summer Semester Classes. I'm as ready as I can be. Wish me luck!
Happy Hump Day y'all :o)

Tuesday Tunes

Since I love all types of music, Tuesday Tunes is a blog hop that I certainly had to join!

My pick for this Tuesday is Rihanna's Stay. I've been stuck on this song for a few weeks now, and it's made it's way to being a ringtone on my iPhone. The lyrics are just so powerful, and it makes me think about a certain situation that weighs heavy on my mind. I've always used music as a way to cope with things and I've always related a song or two to major life events. But, I'm going to quit rambling on and allow you to listen to this song. Enjoy!

Monday Morning Coffee Social ~ My First Monday

Molly @ The Move to America had this lovely idea to do a Coffee Themed Blog Hop on Mondays to talk about plans for the week ahead and things you'd like to accomplish. This is my first time participating. If you'd like to join in the fun, just click the banner above :)

Good Morning! Today begins the last week of  Summer Semester. I'm excited and nervous all at the same time. Even though I have two weeks of freedom to look forward to before Fall Semester starts, I have one last hurdle to overcome first - Final Exams. 

It's safe to say that a majority of my week will be occupied with studying, but I do have a couple things I'd like to accomplish as well. Such as re-arranging some furniture in my living room and my bedroom; and working on some more content for my blog. I'm not trying to commit myself to anything major or time consuming this week because I don't want to stress myself out. My main focus is doing well on my exams. Wish me luck!
