I enjoy all types of music but my favorite thing to listen to is RadioHead. I love RadioHead because they have their own sound. Tom York is the lead singer and the guitarist. He wrights all of the lyrics and the music;he is a music genius.Unfortunately, RadioHead is such a popular band concerts sell out in a matter of minutes and they never go to smaller states. RadioHead has to hit up large venues like in California. This sucks because it makes it really hard to see RadioHead live. I think if I got a chance to go to one of their shows I would cry through the whole thing.
I absolutely love all of their albums. There is not a song that I hate that RadioHead did. Its really hard for me to pick my favorite song. They are all so good! Tom York defines music; he creates sounds that I have never heard before. He is also the greatest guitar player today. In my opinion he could give Hendrix a run for his money. I get lost in his guitar sounds on a daily bases. All of the sounds are so mesmerizing. RadioHead is amazing and they are my favorite band.

Movie
The most recent movie I saw was My Best Friend's Girl. Ashley did not want to go but I wanted to see it because I love Kate Hudson. She is so cute! Anyway, we kind of expected the movie to be stupid. We didn't know anyone who had seen it or heard any reviews for it. So we weren't expecting anything great, but we were wrong; it was hilarious! It was probably the funniest movie I've seen in the theater in a long time. Dane Cook was surprisingly funny. Most of the time I feel like his material gets old. Kate Hudson compliments him perfectly. I would recommend this movie. However, there is some nudity and some crude language. Not a movie to see with your parents!
Its about this guy who is in love with his Co worker(Kate Hudson). They were dating when the guy played by Jason Biggs, wants to move ahead in the relationship. This scares Kate Hudson's character so she wants to cool the relationship off. Jason Biggs's character gets upset and hires Tank, played by Dane Cook , to take her out an the worst date of her life so that she would go running back to him. Unfortunately, things go wrong. Tank and Kate Hudson's character fall in love with each other.
I liked this movie a lot! It was really funny. We were not expecting to laugh as hard as we did. I think I would buy this movie when it comes to video. I was shocked but I would recommend this movie to others.

I believe
I believe that vanilla ice cream is the best flavor ever. It is the base of all the other flavors. Without vanilla we would have no other flavors. Vanilla ice cream is perfect on its own. Its good in a cone, in a bowl or straight from the container. Vanilla ice cream compliment other desserts as well. A brownie with vanilla ice cream! Tell me whats better than that? Oh man pie and vanilla ice cream is outrageously good. Not to mention the old fashion cake with vanilla ice cream. Don't get me wrong all ice cream is good but not half as good as just plain vanilla. These desserts would be OK with other flavored ice cream but not at all comparable to vanilla.
When I was young every birthday or family gathering we always had dessert. Dessert be it pie, cobbler, or cake, it came with vanilla ice cream. The best part about vanilla and large groups of people is that it doesn't take much to change vanilla into another flavor. In every family there is that one crazed chocolate lover. No problem! Just add a little chocolate syrup and presto you have chocolate ice cream. You could do this with any flavor your heart could desire. That's the beauty of vanilla, it could be all of the flavors or just one simple flavor. Just try to turn mocha ice cream to cherry or black berry. It is horrible! Maybe even a crime against ice cream. With vanilla you never have to worry about what you can or cant mix with it.

Zephyr
Zephyr is my kitty cat. I have had her for about a year and a half. I got her from a lady who's cat just gave birth to a litter kittens. She wanted to give all of the kittens away. The lady lived a few houses down from my parents. One day I went over to have a look at the kittens with no intent to keep one. While I was there she told me that the kittens were ready to leave their mother. All of them were gray with black stripes except one. This one exception was black. This black kitten crawled into my lap and started to lick me. I fell head over heals in love! The lady told me to take her home. How could I say "no" to such a sweet little kitty? So I took her. On the way home we stopped and got her food and a litter box.
Since the first day I brought her home she slept with me in my bed. She will snuggle with me every morning. I have to admit she is not the easiest cat ever. She sometimes attacks and when she does she will draw blood. She is mean to everyone but she knows me and rarely attacks me . If she does attack me its mostly because I provoked her. With strangers she is horrible. I think she is bad because she gets scared. Also one day she ate one of my hair ties and had to get emergency surgery. It was exspensive! I didn't have the heart to put her down. I loved that cat way too much to let her go. She has become part of my family.
The sweetest thing I ever saw was when Ashley brought home two hampster. Zephyr thought they were her kittens. She baths them and watches them. It's so cute. We joke about Zeph being a mother. Zephyr even knows when I'm sad. She will come and snuggle up near me. A few times she licked the tears form my eyes. That was kind of odd but it was still really sweet.
Sometime she is mean and sometimes she is really sweet but no matter what I will always love that crazy cat.

Moral Check
Due to recent event I have notice that on a large scale, people have forgotten how to display morals and empathy. We are so absorbed in our own little worlds with no regard to others what so very. We are more concerned about stupid stuff like celebrates than people in our lives that actually interact with us. I work in an office and all day long I hear nothing but back stabbing! As soon as one person walks out of the room immediately the comments start in. "Did you see what she was waring?" "He has no idea what he is doning." Ahhhhhhhh! I'm so sick of it! Every one has something bad to say about another person all the time. It is just repulsive! Espeally when a person confies to another with requesting confidentiality and it is betrayed! These people are the worst breed assholes. We as a society try to deface and single out those who cant defend themselves. We must be so proud to belong to the human race. Everyone is guilty of this!
Empathy! We no longer place ourselves in other peoples's shoes. Hypithetically if I missed a few days of work because my father was dying and two weeks later my daughter was in a horrable car crash that she may not live through. So I called in on Monday to be with my daughter. Shortly after I called in my boss fired me because I missed too many days. How considerate! That was ture story of a lady I knew. Her boss must have been a wreched person. She didnt even show a sign of empathy. I story still makes me sick! How can someone do that to another person?
I am calling for a moral check! If you hear anyone bad mouthing someone or showing no signs of empathy, PLEASE SPEAK UP! Dont let that person get away with it! We need to reform and begin to care about others again.

The Condo
How do you say good bye to a part of you?
As a young child my family spent half the time living in the U.S. and the other part in Thailand. Almost all of my childhood memories from Thailand were structured around the Condo. The Condo was on the second story of a large building. The balcony faced the Jappiya River, in the heart of Bangkok. It had six bed rooms and in each room there was a western style bathroom, a kitchen, a huge living room, a room with a fitness center inside, and a grand hallway that separated the bedrooms. The condo was decorated with old bamboo style furniture. Because the condo was so big my brother and I had so much space to run, and places to hide. It was any child's dream house. All of the adults would be in one of the rooms and the cousins would be as far away as possible. The condo was the place be. All of my aunts and uncles would come over and bring all of their kids. Friends and distant relatives would stop by as well. On any given day there would be at least five to twenty kids and eight to sixteen adults visiting. It was always fun when the house was full of people. There was always kids spilling out of a room or racing down the great hall or climbing all over the bamboo furniture. When it came time to eat we would all pile into the great hall where the table was located. The table fit about twenty comfortably and about thirty snug. As soon as the food was gone and we helped clean, then it was back to playing. Around this time the adults would be having coffee. We would play until it was time for bed. Sometimes my cousins would even stay the night.
Sadly, it came time to go back to the U.S. In Colorado we lived in a two bed room apartment where there was no room to really run around and play. It almost seemed as if we had no family compared to Thailand. Me and my brother were lonely until school started back up. A few years back my dad's family had to sell the condo. No one was living there and it was a waste of money to have a vacant house. We have been to Thailand only once since we sold the condo. When we were there we passed by the condo on the way to go shopping. It was bizarre not to go inside. I will always miss the condo. Every time I think of Thailand I still think of the condo. It was such a major place in my life. I will never forget the condo.
