A Beautiful Sunset

Because sometimes, great entertainment is free.  The other day I was strolling along the beach, and couldn't help myself; I had to take some pictures.  I thought I should share with the world.  These Pictures were taken in Puerto Rico.  Enjoy! 

I almost forgot to mention, except for two of them, all of these pictures were taken with my phone, an iPhone 4S.  The other two were taken with a BlackBerry Torch. :D
This one was taken with a Blackberry by my brother.

I love how the sky looks in this picture.
There are a lot more, and some of the best ones after the jump!!

Song of the day: Rainbow Connection

I find this to be a very beautiful song.  It has been stuck in my mind for a few days.  So, without further a due, I leave you with Rainbow Connection by none other than Kermit The Frog :)

This song is a true classic.  There are a few cover out there, some of which you will be able to see after the jump.  This song is for "the lover, the dreamers, and me".

Yes, I'm in a musical kind of mood. Since it's a long weekend and procrastination is the queen of my life, I'm watching videos and listening to music and sharing with you. This one goes out to you guys, it's kind of a fun son and you may recognize it from some of Apple's iPod Nano's commercials. I like it a lot. and sometims commercials lead you to good music. This is Tongue Tied by Groulove. Hope you enjoy!

Why am i listening to this for the first time now? The Wanted - Warzone

I'm really enjoying their music a lot recently. was looking at some videos on youtube and I stumbled upon this one. I really like the song. For those going through a rough time with a particular person. I think I need to help spread the word around for these guys. So, you get a song of the weekend, which I posted earlier (Spice Up Your Life by he Spice Girls), and a song of the day. This one. Remember, music IS therapy and it heals, along with time. So, I leave you to it, here you have The Wanted's Warzone. Enjoy!

I have to write for school, instead , I'm here

Hi!  I have two big papers to write his semester.  Those are like term papers.  Well, one of them I have figured out almost completely.  Just need to do a little more research and then just sit and write.  The other one... well, I don't know what topic to choose.  It has to be Copyrights related.  Any ideas?  SOPA, PIPA and ACTA are discarded, probably half of my class will write about these topics.  I have 9 days to pic a topic, figure out what I'm gonna do with it and start my research. FML...

So... going back to Spice

I heard this song in a TV show, I think it was VH1's 100 Great Women In Music or something laike that, and now it's stuck.



It's Spice Up Your Life by the Spice Girls.  This is your song for the weekend, enjoy!!

In Memoriam: Whitney Houston

Yesterday, Whitney Houston passed away.  She was 48 years old.  The World lost a great voice with a troubled life.  She was found in the bathtub of her hotel room by her stylists and later on her bodyguards.  She was about to get ready to attend Clive Davis' pre Grammy party.  He was the man who discovered her.  Minutes before she was pronounced dead, she spoke on the phone with her mother and hours before with her cousin.  Autopsy is scheduled for today in order to discover cause of death.  Several prescription bottles were found in her hotel room, but nothing is conclusive until autopsy reports are out.  Her 19 year old daughter was denied access to the body on the hotel room by the police and was rushed to the hospital on a stretcher this afternoon.  May our thoughts and prayers be with her family on this hardest of times.

People, remember drugs are never the answer or solution to our problems; on the contrary, they make them worse and multiply them.    So, try to stay off them.

Also, instead of being sombre and dark about this, lets take a chance to raise awareness of drug use (not that this was the cause of death, but it was a reoccurring problem for her and it certainly affected her carrier)and how it is not the answer.  I cannot stress that enough.

Instead of wallowing in sadness and despair,  let us celebrate her life, talent and wonderful contributions to music.

In Memoriam Whitney Houston

The video above is a clip from the end of the movie The Bodyguard.  in this scene, I Will Always Love You is presented to the word.  This was, without a doubt, her most recognized and popular song.  She is, because of this song, forever inscribed in music history and in breakup playlists around the world.

You can see more videos, including her last performance, after the jump.
