Photography
So I promise I haven't forgotten about this blog. I find it crazy looking back on posts from the past and seeing how much people change. I can remember so many feelings from the posts I've typed in the past. From being crazy and silly, to upset and worried, to "I'm gonna annoy the world with talking about bands 24/7" Yes, I have grown out of that phase. I love my music and I'm willing to share it, but I'm not gonna fangirl all of y'all's faces off :P I still haven't decided if I have a specific purpose for my blog... According to the page header, it says "Emily's thoughts and ideas". I guess that means posting what's on my mind. My apologies for the rambling... I will definitely work on it ;) ttfn! <3

Hello again! It's been a while...a loooooooong while. I'm wanting to start posting on this blog of mine as I've suddenly gotten this feeling where I really want to write (or type) again. I'm hoping to start posting on here again after laughing at the fact that I haven't posted anything since July. Oh well! I'm hoping to pick it back up as I've gotten inspired. Expect some more posts soon! :)
Life's been wonderful. God has blessed me so much. I've been doing so much lately. Softball, photography, concert-going, guitar playing, and writing have been taking up a lot of my time. It's been amazing though! The past year at my co-op was great. I'm so blessed to be homeschooled, and to have a co-op where I can hang out and spend time with my friends.
Oh yeah! I'm playing guitar now! ...well, learning it at least ;) I'm starting to learn chords and I hope to be able to play acoustic versions of some of my favorite songs too :) Also, braces! They haven't been too bad so far. I've had them for about 2 months now... I love making the crazy color choices, as silly as that sounds! :P I can't wait for my teeth to straighten out though.. Someday, someday.
Anyway, this is the time I have for now... And I WILL be posting more soon!
Later! :)

Julyjulyjuly
(this is an old post which was saved to drafts for 2 months.)
Hey guys. This past week's been a pretty hectic one for me, but in a good way! Firstly, my cousins came in town! Had a great time with them at the mall, In N Out burger, and Six Flags. It's always great to see them, especially since they live a good distance away.
Six Flags was really crazy. We went on the weekend, (which we typically don't do), and the place was PACKED. I wanted to go on the weekend because there was a concert there I really wanted to see (Friday is Forever Tour: We The Kings, Hot Chelle Rae, Forever The Sickest Kids, The Summer Set, Action Item). Well, before I go on my crazy spill about the concert, I'll talk about the rides... I ACTUALLY RODE A CORKSCREW ROLLER COASTER. Yup. I rode Batman, Shockwave, Mine Train, Sombrero, Runaway Mountain, Judge Roy Scream + many others! SO MUCH FUN.
Now to the concert... First up was Action Item...never heard of them before...but THEY WERE AMAZING! Like really, really gooooooooooooood. Next was Hot Chelle Rae...oh my gosh I love them. Ever since I heard "Tonight, Tonight" on the radio, I've become obsessed. "Say (Half Past Nine)" and "Alright" are pretty incredible too :) They played "Tonight Tonight" last and I kinda screamed my heart out to that! The lead singer's cute too :3 :P Next was The Summer Set...and they were amazing. And they had an album come out today...or yesterday lol. They sang "Chelsea" which made me really happy ^_^. Then We the Kings played which they were PHENOMINAL. Like ohmygoshamazing. They played A LOT of songs (including my favorites!). Then FTSK came on and THEY KILLED IT (in a good way :P). They were amazing!!!!!
Also saw the midnight showing of the last Harry Potter. That was amazing...plus I kinda cried in the end 'cause it's the last movie :').
Then, a week later my mom and I go see Anarbor in concert! There are AMAZING live...like really awesome. I stood in the front row :3
Then came softball nationals. Did pretty well! Won 2, lost 2 brackets...so we finished middle of the pack, but we played some pretty tough competition.
Well that was a crazy month of July! Byes<3

Kinda pointless post
So I guess you can see some things I really like... Nerd sunglasses and band bracelets :) I love both those things. 5/8 of the bracelets have come from concerts I've been to, the other three I just like :-p And my sunglasses I just tend to get when I feel like it lol
Sorry about the pointless post...haha

Music
"you could crush me,
but please don't crush me.
'Cause baby, I'm a dreamer for sure.
And I won't, let you down.......I Swear this Time I mean it" <3

This song has been on my mind a lot lately. It still, just a
year after discovering this band (Mayday Parade), is still as beautiful as the day I first heard
it (except the fact that I don't cry anymore ;)). I love
beautiful music...I love the heartfelt lyrics, compassionate tone in the
artist's voice, and personally, I think acoustic versions of songs add
sensitivity to the music. Lyrics that make your heart melt (like the song above), just gives me a indescrible "beautiful and happy" feeling inside. I enjoy music I can relate to.That band has never broke her heart and has yet to leave her. It's no wonder she finds such joy in her music- Alex Gaskarth

So I completely forget to mention this, but a few weeks ago I went to the beach for vacation... It felt so nice just to be away from everything and to be in the sand and ocean. We (my family and I) went to this old-fashioned candy store/ ice cream parlour and we rode a ferry to this other island. Anyways, here are some pictures from the week :)

Photoshoot :)
Went to the lake for a picnic and photoshoot with Clara and Bailey :) It felt so good to take pictures again...with friends, I mean. The water in the lake felt amazing in the summer heat.
