This picture and this song exemplifies my mood today.

Two Door Cinema Club | Beacon

It's finally here! Two Door Cinema Club came out with their second album and I just had to get it. I don't remember the last time I went to go buy an album. But this I needed a physical copy of because (1) I'm pretty sure this album is going to be amazing because their first one was and (2) Two Door in general has a lot of sentimental value to me since they were the first concert I've been to. On their Facebook page they released a sample of all of the songs on this album. However, I refused to listen to it so that when I actually buy the album I wanted to get that element of surprise. 

At this moment I am going to listen to the album and tell you guys what I think about it! (prepare for some fangirling)...

1. Next Year- Oh.My.God. I'm in love with Alex's voice solo in the beginning!
2. Handshake- I think they played this at the concert. ... yup they did. 
3. Wake Up
4. Sun- I love how subtle the beginning is. This song seems a bit different from their usual style... doesn't mean I don't like it.  :))) <- creepy smile
5. Someday
6. Sleep Alone- I heard this one before because I downloaded it when they were giving it out for free and I saw the music video. .. "Cause we're always fast asleep"... Indeed. 
7. The World is Watching- The beginning is so adorable! Sounds like a nice vacation song. The girl's voice (Valentina) enhances the song rather than overwhelmingly destroying it. Aww a little violin part how sweet hehe. 
8. Settle- I wonder if this song is about being away from home (since they're always on tour). 
9. Spring
10. Pyramid
11. Beacon- So relaxing.

I only have one more word to say: REPEAT.

Half Full Glass of Wine

Denim Jacket: Thrifted / Skull Tank: Urban Outfitters / Maxi Skirt: Pacsun / Converse

I have been in love with this song (Half Full Glass of Wine- Tame Impala) this month and this skull tank top somehow reminds me of the music video. Maybe because of the colors? You should listen to it/ watch the video to see the resemblance and just for the sake of listening to an awesome song!

Also check out Fashionconsciousness' new Back to School Outfits video. This look is featured as Friday's outfit.

Song for the Night | Black Treacle- Arctic Monkeys

This song randomly popped into my head and I fell in love with the song again.

Atlanta

I was super excited about going to Atlanta because I wanted to test how much I learned in my photography class. I feel like I learned a lot because I managed to get great pictures while I was there. Not only that, but I also felt a lot more comfortable with adjusting the settings of the camera to fit exactly what kind of picture I wanted. Honestly, I think I was more excited about taking pictures than actually enjoying the trip. It also helped that I've been to Atlanta before so I knew where I would take pictures. So here they are and I didn't edit any of these pictures because I don't really have an editing program....

(p.s. I know that most likely no one will take my pictures, but if you do I would appreciate it if you linked it back to my blog. I know that my skills are definitely lacking still and I have a lot to learn, but these pictures are still something I'm proud of and I want to treat it as if they are my "works". I hope you understand. Thank you)

Oh and if you are a more experienced photographer who would like to give me (the beginner) some constructive criticism, that would be awesome!

I'll throw in this song I found today just because I'm lovin it!

Alabama

After meeting my friend, who I hadn't seen for about 5 years, we started off the day with a nice Korean treat.

Had to drive about 2 hours to get to a decent sized mall.

Serious face.

Whenever I hear or think about Alabama, this song gets stuck in my head..

I don't even like this song!

June 2012 Playlist

JUNE 2012 from femininmystique on 8tracks.

This is the life.

Did I tell you I went to the Two Door Cinema Club Concert?

and that it was the best concert ever (even if it was the only concert I've been to)? 

and that seeing Sam Halliday in person made me like him more? 

and that Alex looks like an angel when he sings with his eyes closed?

and that Kevin looks adorable rockin out on his bass? 

... I sound like a creep, but this is what happens when you get to see them from like 5 feet away. Can't help it... they're just the best band ever.

Anyways here's a video I made of the massive amount of pictures and recordings I  took during the concert.

Overall, it was an amazing experience and I would definitely go to their concert again. TDCC is AMAZINGGGG live. No words to describe how good it was. The whole atmosphere was so stress relieving too.

Going to this concert made me want to go to more concerts in the near future, like the people from Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist haha jk
