Lovin' Armin Van Buuren right now
Watch this video! It's awesome Armin Van Buuren talks about his new album
I love how he goes through explaining how they created Mirage. I think it's so cool how dj's go through and put layer after layer of sounds and come up with awesome end products. How just one little loop can create a track that an entire album will be based off of.
The title track is really great- Listen to Mirage
This is him talking about one my favorite track on the album: Making of Not Giving Up On Love
Listen to the end product: Not Giving Up On Love
The entire album is awesome. My two other favs are This Light Between Us and Drowning
Seriously- check it out. You won't be disappointed. PROMISE!!

Julian Smith = HILARIOUS!!!!!
I think I’m a little slow on the uptake. I honestly never came across this guy until my sister posted a video a few days ago on her facebook.
O.M.G
HILARIOUS.
I think I want to marry (or at least date) this guy. He’s soooo funny! All his videos remind me of something me, Alyssa, my sis and bro would make!!
In this video my sister would be the Josh, I would be the guy who says Malk, my bro would be the black guy and my mom is the mellow dad.
This is my favorite video- Hello Brother! I MADE THIS FOR YOOOOOOU!!!
Check him out- sooooo funny!!

For the Tweethearts...
What draws you to a website? What makes you continuously frequent that site or maybe makes you look for a new site?
Having a part in helping to design screens for an application, the look and feel of different sites really stick out to me. Way back when, which I believe was about last March ‘09-ish, I joined Twitter because I wanted to know what all the hype was about. I joined and immediately thought the website was not user friendly, it took some time to figure out what to do and what to click, and, in my mind, it just was not what I thought it would be. It was annoying to me and I only tweeted a few times. I kind of gave up on Twitter and left it behind.
During that time we were rolling out a new part of the system we’re designing at work and I was out in the field with users helping troubleshoot problems and to aid in the adoption of the new functionality. While out at one of the offices I made friends with two of the users. We’d talk about music, concerts, gossip and they always brought up twitter. At that point I really didn’t like twitter- the website wasn’t laid out well and I just didn’t really understand the purpose. I used to listen to their twitter convos, but never really participated. They would gang up on me trying to pressure me into getting a twitter and it wasn’t until they suggested getting a phone app that I decided to give it another try. My phone of that year was the Black Jack 2. I found a free app and downloaded it. I actually started tweeting quite frequently. Having it right on my phone made it so much easier and mobile (obviously haha). The app was definitely easier to use and I could pretty much do everything faster from the app than I could on the website. Well, my free trial of the app came and went and then the company wanted me to buy it. Still not really sold on the value of Twitter I declined and again went twitterless…
Fast forward 6 months. My phone contract is up and I get to get a new phone. Iphone! YAY! One of the first apps I download is Echofon and my obsession with twitter started to take off. Now having a great app, easy access, and much to say I started tweeted multiple times a day. From that point on I started really getting into Twitter. Still, I didn’t like the website.
Applications for Twitter have just been so much easier to navigate and find what you want. I actually hate logging on to Twitter from my computer. So when I heard they were releasing a new Twitter site I was pretty excited to see what changes they’d make. After watching a few videos and reading some sites I’m actually very excited for the new roll out. Do I think I’ll use the website more? Nah, probably not. It’s way easier on my phone, but I did read an interesting statistic. More than 78% of Twitter’s users access the application through their web site in a given month. I was shocked! After having my own experience I figured most users were like me… but I guess not!
Wired Article – This article really gives you a good sense of the changes and everything that will be included in the new twitter layout.
Here’s another article, very similar, that gives a screenshot preview of the new layout as well Huffington Post Article
As far as roll out- I haven’t been able to find an official date. All I keep reading is that it will start to be rolled out in the next few weeks. Ahhhh!! Can’t wait to see it! Hopefully it’ll be a lot easier to use and will get me to use the web site more! If not, I’m very content with my Echofon app.
Check it outttttttt!!
This guy at my work kept telling me I needed to check out this girl called Little Boots. I kept putting it off and off and finally I took the time and looked her up. I’m mad that I kept putting it off because I love her already!! Within minutes I was on itunes downloading her cd. This is one of her songs that I’ve liked the most so far: Little Boots- Remedy

Sad Day :-(
Pulled From Footballnewsnow.com
No Interest in Ex-Dolphins QB Pat White
»Football News Now Staff Writer»September 8, 2010 - 9:18 am EDT
No NFL team has expressed interest in ex-Dolphins QB Pat White since Miami cut him on Saturday.
QB Pat White has yet to hear from a single NFL team since the Dolphins cut him on Saturday and he passed through waivers untouched.
As of Wednesday morning, the former West Virginia star and 44th overall pick in 2009 has had “no visits, no negotiations, no offers” with any teams in the league, according to Pro Football Talk. Teams have reportedly expressed concerns with White’s size and strength, worried that he won’t be able to endure the beating a typical NFL player undergoes throughout the season.
With little interest in the 24-year-old, the question turns towards White’s next move. His 13 game appearances in 2009 render him ineligible to sign to a team’s practice squad, so it’s likely White may wait until 2011 to attempt a comeback.
Other options include, switching positions (the Dolphins told White he would have a better chance of making their final roster as a WR) or signing with a UFL or CFL team to get more real-time reps at quarterback. White, a highly-touted baseball prospect in high school, could also take a shot at making it in the MLB.
Source insists the former Heisman candidate will remain in the NFL: “I’d be surprised if he wasn’t in the league at some point,” a league source said. The question remains where and when his return will take place.
The Dolphins, who retained QBs Chad Henne, Chad Pennington and Tyler Thigpen over White, will open their season in Buffalo on Sunday.

Why Parents Shouldn't Have Facebook
1. My mom always talks about facebook and expects us all to explain it to her
2. If you need someone to explain to you how to use facebook then you shouldn't be on it
3. We get questioned on why we 'liked' something at 3am...
4. At the dinner table we get updates on everybody and their mother- where they're going to school, what parties they've attended, what they're doing now, if they just recently broke up with their boyfriends, their sexual preferences --- everything that I already know, but don't say out loud because then people would think I'm a stalker
5. They get mad at you if you don't list BOTH of your parents. First you don't even list any, but since one friends you and lists you as their daughter they show up as your mother... THEN your dad asks why you don't like him enough to list him as your dad on your page. Apparently this looks like either 1. you're mom's divorced or 2. you're estranged from your dad..... *note* when's the last time you even looked at the family relationships someone listed on their page?
... I could keep going on, but there's no point.
I just don't think parents and their children need to be friends on facebook. When I was in high school I didn't have to share my AIM profiles with them or all the notes I wrote to my friends in class...
That's all.
Sorry for the rant.

TSwift
I think there might be something wrong with me...
I'm like obsessed with Taylor Swift right now. All I keep listening to are her 2 cds and especially these songs:
- Today Was a Fairytale
- Mine
- Our Song
- A Place in This World
- Fearless
Sometimes I swear I'm seriously like 14 years old....
I never realized how much I relate to 'A Place In This World' though. I feel like it was written about me haha.
I don't know what I want, So dont ask me, cause im still trying to figure it out.
Don't know what's down this road,
im just walking.
Trying to see through the rain coming down.
Even though im not the only one,
that feels the way i do.
Im alone, on my own, and that's all i know.
I'll be strong, i'll be wrong,
Oh, but life goes on.
Oh, im just a girl, trying to find a place in this world.
