Blogging on Phone

So frustrated!!

I typed out a post on my phone (yup, finally got a smartphone ladies and gents! welcome me to the 21st century! haha) through the blogger app on there, and then it didn't save any (ANY) of my new changes!!! So I had less than half of what I wanted to post!

I finally finished it (took me the entire day to type it, since I was writing it between classes and then looked it over this evening) and it wasn't there!!! When I tried publishing it, it reverted back to what I had saved like once at the very start of the day.

ugh -- to express my anger.


FINE!
not that anyone might care, but no semi-fun post today. :P Sorry.

Over and out. Hope your day/night is going better than mine!

Shadow Study by Maria V. Snyder

 

This cover is gorgeous! Can't wait to read it! If you have not heard of Maria V. Snyder, you need to look her up. Her books are all amazing.

The Post with Many Things (day April 29th edition)

 

Hello People of the World!

This is Rachel Rae writing :)

Right now I am listening to: Lindsey Stirling's NEW ALBUM: Shatter Me. (more specifically, the song: We Are Giants (ft. Dia Frampton) by Lindsey Stirling. The album is amazing and I highly recommend it!! Listen to it!!!! o.o :D

Random Picture of the Moment goes to *DRUMROLL*

LOOK AT THE DUCK :)

 

Moving on to 1st topic:

Krispy Kreme
Yesterday there was a deal here where if you bought a dozen donuts at Krispy Kremes, you get a free dozen. Therefore it was needed. My friend bought one. We almost finished it! (Amongst the four of us) Not bad, I'd say. :)

I had two, the sugar one and the other sugar one. Ha, just kidding. My bad. The grainy sugar covered one and the maple sugar one. Hmmmmm-hmm. Yup. Good stuff. OH and a bite of the chocolate glazed one.



The actual picture I tried taking on my phone looks bad so I'm not about to post it. It's dark...blurry...a true horror to photographers, and I don't wish that upon anyone.


Moving on to 2nd topic!

Supernatural



AHHHHHHH this TV show!!! Ohmygosh. O_O Yes. It's...a serious love/hate relationship.

I watched the 1st show a while ago, probably when it first came out because I remember that I got it when it was Free on iTunes (deals, man, deals)









And I liked the idea of it. I liked the characters (DEAN AND SAM FOREVER OHMYGOSH) but I hate horror things...anything scary. I hate it. hatehatehatehatehate. Yes, I can say hate. I hate horror. And that first episode is mighty scary if you asked me.

Anyway, now I've been watching some with my friends and one of them is all the way caught up and the other one it on--like--episode 18 or something of Season 1. Soooo I just re-started there, with them, when they were watching it. I'm still creeped out to no end, but I cover my ears and close my eyes and squeal like a little girl at the scary parts. You can especially tell by the music. Which is why I hate listening to scary things mostly. Looking is bad too, I can't tell which one is worse. So don't ask that.

Yes, we are bad asses and we know it POSE

I like Dean. :}




And here is Sam because I thought this picture looked cool as well and I like him too:


But I still like Dean better (as of now--Season 1) :)

And if you want a shirtless picture of him, feel free to Google it. You're welcome.


Okay that's all from me for now!


I wanted to get this done yesterday...Instead of in the wee early hours of this morning, which makes it the next day--the day after my post is supposed to have happened, but you know...LIFE, MAN.


Anyway. Bed time soon for me!
Hope your day/night was/is going perfectly! If not, cheer up. There's always tomorrow. HUGS! :)

Love lots,
Rachel Rae!

The Post with Many Things (day April 28th edition)

 

 

Hello People of the World!

This is Rachel Rae writing :)

Random Picture of the Moment goes to *DRUMROLL*

Welcome to Planet Earth. Or the U.S. Don't really know if it's different other places. Let me know your thoughts if you wish. (Love the Princess Bride movie! "As you wish!" Love.) :)

-AND INTO THE REST OF THIS POST OF RANDOM DOOM-

I hope you are having a lovely day/night or had a lovely day/night.

Right now I'm listening to: Wake Me Up by Avicii (which *FUN FACT* I always think about spelling "Avicci", you know? Like the Italian way. At least that what I tell myself anyway. Ha) :P


And the song that I listened to before that I have had on repeat ever since it came out is: Shatter Me by Lindsey Stirling.

WHICH TRANSITIONS NICELY INTO MY 1st "TOPIC": (Psstt, if I do caps, it doesn't mean I am yelling, it just means I am titling something or separating words...from...other words...it's just the way I operate. FYI. Warning. Yah)

-LINDSEY STIRLING-

I was hoping this wouldn't be a specific topic blog today, but another *FUN FACT* for right now is that the Amazing Lindsey Stirling's new album "Shatter Me" comes out tomorrow (4/29/14, Tuesday in the United States) and I'm super excited! I can't wait. She has already come out with two of the album's singles (I believe at least two) and they are already amazing!!!

#1 - Beyond the Veil

#2 - Shatter Me

Question: Lindsey Stirling, why are you so awesome?

Answer:

              *shrug*

 

 

 

 



 

 

The music videos are equally amazing to the music and you must watch when you get the chance! :) Highly recommended by all. (yes, I just grouped everyone into "all", what up)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NEXT TOPIC! (see what I did there? Hooray for transitions that are not smooth. Okay, onward!)

Right now I am listening to: Ain't It Fun by Paramore <3 :)

 

-TARGET-

At Target the other day to get...stuff. And saw this fun sign (to the right):

Yay for Lindsey Stirling!

 

Anyway, I also saw so many books and it was glorious. I was freaking out. I didn't buy any though cause that's not how I roll. I'm the type of bookworm that likes to check out a whole truck load of books from the library, and read them (well, duh) and then if I absolutely love one or a series then I buy it. I have gotten several gift cards in my time for Amazon or Barnes&Noble and I most always use them for books. BOOKS BOOKS GLORIOUS BOOKS! :D (singing break, dude, come on. Roll with it) :D

 

 

 

Okay, also... saw this cute gift bag that I felt like taking a picture of since I love cats. And dogs, but this one is for all you cats and cat lovers out there.

Bam.

 

 

 

 

NEXT TOPIC: (I think this "Next Topic" thing is starting to grow on me. I'm gonna just go with it. So please bare with me, homies)

 

-THAT ONE TIME THAT CHRISTMAS AND MY BIRTHDAY MAGICALLY CAME IN APRIL-

(yay for long titles. cheers to you, long title, hopefully you didn't lose the interest of people at the third word)

 

Right now I am listening to: I Will Survive by Ryan Star :) <3

 

 

Okay, April 27th 2014 was yesterday, Sunday.

 

I got some books from my fellow book lover/buyer friend and it was awesome! (15 books, plus 2 movies, yay for my new addition to my small--but larger than most--inventory of books! haha) Pretty excited to read these over the summer!

Serious...ly, it was like my Birthday and Christmas combined. Honest.

 Maybe I should add a life event to Facebook. HA o.o

*geeking out*

 

LOOK AT ALL THOSE AMAZING BOOKS! [just look. at. them. and dwell. in the beautifulness] One of them is even signed O_O The "Glimmerglass" book by Jenna Black. (*FUN FACT* I typed "Shimmerglass" at first but it looked wrong. I apologize!)

 

 

I'm still amazed that I got that many books. Plus the two movies.

 

OH! The movies are: Sahara and Just Like Heaven (two movies  that I do like).

 

 

MOVING ON/NEXT TOPIC: (random...but here's a sneak into my thought process for a moment: When I typed "moving on" I sang it in my head like "Over There" and here is that chorus: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TI73oAcmTaU)

 

-WATERPROOF NOTES-

 

 

 

"No More Great Ideas Down The Drain"---wow. Well, this would definitely be useful to writers, I think. I wonder if it comes with the pencil? Is the pencil waterproof? Hmmmmm, questions questions.

 

That was my random scrolling picture through facebook topic! YAY.

 

 

Okay, have a great time living life! Love lots!

 

~Rachel Rae!

 

P.S. All of the songs that I have mentioned in this post are songs that I like or LOVE. There you go. Happy listening if you feel so inclined!



Mortal Instruments series Book Five Actor Look-Alike

Hey-lo people of the world! :D

SO. I just came across a very interesting revelation!

Do you know the series by Cassandra Clare, The Mortal Instruments? (The 1st book, the City of Bones, was made into a movie and I loved the actor choices, overall.)

Well. I have Book 5, City of Lost Souls sitting on my desk right now, and the cover...well, the cover is awesome! But I noticed that there's an actor that looks an AWFUL lot like the guy on the cover!!

Cover:


Actual guy:

Broody, hmm?



I AM SO SORRY. But I can't find any pictures of them with shirts. Oh, darn.




What I think the guy (on the cover) really looks like:
His name is Chris Zylka.
And he looks like this:


Okay, I apologize for springing that on you, but it's hard to find a picture of him with a shirt. (Seriously)
Let me try to find another one.




AGH! Trying to find a profile/side view (because the cover is a side view and it makes more sense) of him and it's not really happening..

(Only one...basically. hahaa XD and it doesn't relate too well with the book cover. ha, Can you imagine this on a that book cover? HMMMM)

...MOMENTS LATER...

AH I found one!!


THERE! RIGHT THERE. Ohmygosh, Well I just think there's a really weird similarity.



Both are fine specimens of Jace Wayland's and I'm fine with that.

The guy I really wanted to be Jace is Alex Pettyfer, seen here:

OH Hello :)


(ohmygosh he's so preeeeetty. sorry sorry!)

If you really want a picture of him shirtless, just Google him :)




Okay, there's my little spiel! Love lots!!
~Rachel Rae! :)

Tyler Ward, who is he?

Bonjour! Hello. Oh, hey!



Hello, beautiful people of the internet!

(Wait, what? There's a gif of his HAIR! ohmygosh, no way. 0_0)

This post is going to be all about Tyler Ward...if you hadn't already guessed.


Say What?

Yes, you did hear right. Tyler Ward.


Hey Guys!

He's a musician. And he started off on YouTube. You can also go to Wikipedia and look him up there (<---or here) Hey, he has his very own Wiki page!! :D


Okay. So yeah, look him up. I don't really want to tell you about him when you can watch his videos.

So go watch his videos. He does covers and has some originals. All of them are phenomenal. Yes, that's right. Phenomenal.

Yay!!

Here's my favorite so far:

Keep on doing what you're doing, Tyler.

Alright, over and out,
Rachel Rae!




Tyler Ward was WHERE?

Hello all!

I hope you're having a great day, and this makes it even better! If you're having a bad day (start singing that song that comes to your head every time you say/think "if you had a bad day"), I'm sorry! And I hope this turns it around :D


Last Friday, March 7th, 2014 was a day of much excitement in the town of Orange, CA. Here is my article for that much excitement...


We called it the Tyler Ward show.

Hey all!

I hope you all had a wonderful day. If you haven't then I think I'll add a rather short video just for you. Maybe it will make your day/afternoon/night. Here it is:

And just in case you don't like cats....

And in case you just don't appreciate animals or wildlife all together.....

(Man! That's just so creative. o.o I don't know if I would be able to have the time and patience......oh wait!! My phone buttons are on silent so they won't make noise! Haha, I was wondering why I never noticed that my phone did that...wow)




ONE MORE PHONE ONE! :D

Okay. that's just creative.

Love it!



Over and out homies,

Rachel Rae!

It's CHER LLOYD!

PEOPLE!!!!

I have news! That you might already know yourself!! I'm just late it noticing!! But Cher Lloyd is pretty cool!

Yep. There it is. :)





Check out her album: Sticks and Stones (from 2011)

This music video is really interesting. I liked this version better than the other one, but that one is good too! Check out both if you wish! They are both creative! I absolutely love music videos that actually tell a story.



Love y'alllllll!

Over and out

"Tell My Mama" - Christina Grimmie

Christina Grimmie's "Tell My Mama" music video is now out! It is amazing and I love the story and creativity of it. You should all watch it because it's awesome. Reasoning. :) Decision made. Plus it's cute and Christina's voice is worth listening to. She's a good singer!!


Okay, love lots!!

Over and out,

Rachel Rae!!!!

Once Upon a Time there was a story.... :)

ONCE UPON A TIME.....


If you haven't heard about a T.V. show called: Once Upon a Time....well, then I don't know where you've been. :P But it's a good show! Which you should check out sometime.

There's fairy tale characters and magic, love, revenge, fighting, and curses. It's a show that you'll probably either love or hate. If you don't like fairy tales or magic, then you might not love it.

I love it so far and I'm trying to catch up!

It's awesome.
Therefore you should watch it. O_O :)
