Lyrical Imprints On My Heart...

Music is just one of those transcendental elements that has the ability to fill your soul with hope when your in despair, serenity when you are rageful and brings back wonderful memories that you thought you had lost forever. It's so important in my life that it stands a close second to love. There are songs, as everybody knows, that lift you up and take you to another world. These are just a few of the songs that transport me and touch my heart. Press play to be soothed & moved.

Wish Making.


There's this saying that goes something like this "IF YOU CAN WISH IT YOU CAN HAVE IT"...I might have totally butchered the wording but the meaning remains the same. I've been thinking a lot lately about my future. I have many dreams that I wish to make realities but waiver in my belief of myself. Sometimes I am the most confident girl on the block and at other times I want to crawl into a hole and hide away from the world. I have insecurities just like everyone else....but my biggest wish of all is to work through them and discover the me I want to be. Some say if you think positively about yourself and your future all good things will come to you and a beautiful life will fall into place. Fingers crossed.

I Wanna Do Bad Things With You.



I'm a little late with the True Blood craze...but boy have I gone mad for it! I've watched the first three seasons in the past two weeks and have fallen madly in love with Vampire Bill Compton. Good lord he is gorgeous...and dead. I adore the way Bill and Sookie care so deeply for one another and how their connection is so undeniably strong and sincere. I have never been one to rave about vampire's and all their mysterious sensuality...but I've been awakened to their intrigue. 

This show is just plain great from the opening credits (I love the theme song and imagery, it definitely captures the badass essence of the show) to the powerful plots and sinister dialogue. All of the characters are unique and add to the heart of the show. I shouldn't begin to list and explain each characters attributes and role because I would end up writing a novel.... but I will say that my favorite characters are Sookie (main character), Bill (vampire), Lafayette (cross dressing, gay cook), Jessica (young, "virgin" vampire), and Jason (Sookie's very stupid brother). Though, I really like all of the characters, these are just my favorites. 

Everyone on the show is sexy and the intimate love-making scenes are so believable that I'm not positive that the actor's aren't actually having sex. I like the real human emotion (and vampire emotion) that is captured, as well as, the violence and predatory behavior of the vamp's that is both terrifying and enticing. Those fangs, the darkness, the love and the tenderness...all of life and death's offerings are showcased in this delightful series. 

You want a new obsession?
Sit back and soak in some True Blood!
