My Weirdism.

I know... weirdism is not a word, but it is now. I have meant to blog some more recently, but have been super busy with super important stuff... like playing an excessive amount of Draw Something, procrastinating my biology book, and laughing really hard at really regular stuff. I know... good things to do in my spare time, right? ;) Moving on...

Today I discussed how weird I can be with one of my friends. I have my normal days, and other's are just awkward... speaking of awkward, I apparently recorded myself on the webcam the other day by mistake... don't you just love it when that happens? You realize that if you really look like that while your on the laptop, it may be good to just start dragging it into your room and closing the door. I think I've said enough...
To awesome weirdness, and other such nonsense,

February Music

Looking back at February, I thought I'd do a post of all the new music that came out!

Strangely Dim
Francesca Battistelli's new single 'Strangely Dim' is amazing. It came out February 5th, and by the 6th I'd already listened to it 20+ times. It has great lyrics and a catchy melody, so I suggest you check it out! One of my all time favorite songs.


Run (Deluxe Edition)
Sanctus Real's new album came out February 1st. I've not listened to them very much, but from the samples their album sounds neat! I like a lot of their singles on the radio, and this album seems to follow in those songs footsteps.

Swallow the Ocean by NewSong  | CD Reviews And Information | NewReleaseTuesday.com
Newsong came out with 'Swallow The Ocean' on February 26. I've never been the biggest Newsong person, but a few of there songs on the new album sound really cool! I personally think the first song on their album, 'All We Need' is a really nice worship song.

Gold [Re-Release] by Britt Nicole  | CD Reviews And Information | NewReleaseTuesday.com
Britt Nicole re-released 'Gold' on February 26 as well. This album is like her original 'Gold', but repackaged and featuring 2 remixes of the title track. I've heard that 'Gold' and 'All This Time' were rerecorded, but they sound pretty much like the originals. Anyways, if you don't have her original 'Gold' already, you should go get this album since it has lots of great music! I get thrilled by her albums easily.

Reckless by Jeremy Camp | CD Reviews And Information | NewReleaseTuesday.com
Jeremy Camp released his new album 'Reckless' on February 12. Once again with his original sound, he made his 9th studio album. Wow, that's a lot! I've never been into Jeremy Camp myself, but I know of a lot of people who like him, so you may want to look into his new album!

I guess that's all for February's music. Can't wait to see what comes out this month!

Happy Valentine's Day Everyone <3

1 Corinthians 13:4-7
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Banana Muffins


Yesterday I was bored. I had finished school way too early, and now I had nothing to do. With all the free time on my hand, I decided to get busy and make muffins. Wonderful muffins.
- Banana Muffins -

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

3 large bananas, mashed

3/4 cup white sugar
1 egg
1/3 cup butter, melted

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat muffin pans with non-stick spray, or use paper liners. Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside.

Combine bananas, sugar, egg, and melted butter in a large bowl. Fold in flour mixture, and mix until smooth. Scoop into muffin pans.

Bake in preheated oven. Bake mini muffins for 10 to 15 minutes, and large muffins for 25 to 30 minutes. Muffins will spring back when lightly tapped.


I got the recipe here. These are SO good. They disappeared quickly, and they were really delicious. If you like banana bread, you'll love these! :)

The End of the Season


Today was Districts, and we lost the first game... and now our season's over. 
Honestly, I wasn't expecting us to be out of it this soon. I thought we had a good chance. I thought we might win... but this game ended, and it was all over.
While this wasn't how I wanted to end my first season of basketball, it was okay. It was fun while it lasted. I made the best friends, got better at a sport a love, and enjoyed every minute of the competition. Can't wait till next year ;)
