So I was thinking about my gym playlist on my ipod. It’s a very silly mix and some of it isn’t very gym-like. And some of it, is good for now, but I’ll get sick of it soon.

  • Here it Goes Again – Ok Go – fun and upbeat plus they’re on treadmills in their video
  • Buttons ft. Snoop Dogg – Pussycat Dolls – upbeat again plus I love Snoop
  • Gold Digger – Kanye West – good beat
  • All Falls Down ft. Syleena – Kanye West – good beat and I love Syleena’s vocals
  • I Believe in a Thing Called Love – The Darkness – such a fun song!
  • Love Stoned – Justin Timberlake – just a good beat, I guess
  • Elevator – Flo-Rida – Good beat, plus they mention Arizona… haha
  • My Goodies – Ciara – I love the rap in this song.
  • Girl Anachronism – The Dresden Dolls – SO much fun!
  • Kiss Kiss ft. T-Pain – Chris Brown – I just like this song a lot.
  • Love Song – Sara Bareilles – Good song, she’s got a beautiful voice, plus I love how passionate the song is.
  • No Air ft. Chris Brown – Jordin Sparks – Again, beautiful voices and it’s passionate
  • More Than A Feeling – Boston – Classic. I love blasting this one and singing at the top of my lungs (not at the gym of course – at the gym I just go faster)
  • Low ft. T-Pain – Flo-Rida – just fun
  • Me & You – Cassie – For some reason I really like this song. I think it’s her voice
  • We Got the Beat – GoGos – I do have the beat.
  • Hurt So Good – John Melloncamp – Perfect gym song – I love being sore – it hurts sooo good
  • Work It – Missy Elliot – I love Missy Elliot. She’s so silly. Her songs put me in a good mood and I just wanna giggle
  • Jane Says – Janes Addiction – This seems like a weird song for the list, but obviously my taste in music is weird period. It’s passionate.
  • Jig Wit’ It – Street Runnaz Click – Another silly one that gets me going
  • Makes Me Wonder – Maroon 5 – Fun and fast
  • Sensual Seduction – Snoop Dogg – Silly, and, again, I love Snoop
  • Take On Me – A-ha – Gotta love 80s music. I should have more on my gym playlist. This song makes me wanna move
  • Rock Lobster – B-52s – Such a silly song. Again it makes me wanna move
  • Miss New Booty – Bubba Sparxxx – I like this song, but I’ve had it on my list for a while. It could probably go soon
  • Gonna Make You Sweat k- C + C Music Company – Another perfect work out song
  • Ridin DIrty ft. Krayzie Bone – Chamillionaire – This one could also go soon. It’s been on the list a long time
  • Zoot Suit Riot – Cherry Poppin Daddies – Gotta love swing music
  • Dip It Low – Christina Milian – This one could go soon. Good beat though
  • One Two Step ft. Missy Elliot – Ciara – More Missy :)
  • Whip It – Devo – Whip myself into shape
  • September – Earth Wind and Fire – Fun song. I love harmony
  • The Sweet Escape ft. Akon – Gwen Stefani – This one could go soon, but I like Gwen
  • Wind it Up – Gwen Stefani – Reminds me that people stare when you look and move good haha
  • Beating Hearts Baby – Head Automatica – good beat and fun
  • Intuition – Jewel – I love Jewel, and obviously most of her music wouldn’t work for a gym playlist, so this is what I used
  • Good Life ft. T-Pain – Kanye West – Good song, but it’s been on the list awile. Gotta let other Kanye songs take over the top of the list.
  • Roll Out – Ludacris – I’ve always loved this song. It’s so fast and silly
  • Girlfriend ft. Nelly – N’sync – Only N’sync song I like, and maybe that’s cause Nelly is in it :) good beat
  • Rollercoaster of Love – Red Hot Chili Peppers – Gotta love it.

So there’s my list. Any recommendations are welcome. My music taste is obviously eclectic. I like making new lists occasionally because sometimes the list gets a little stale at the gym, like I said with some of the songs lower on the list.

I think I need to go to sleep now, I’ve got a lot to do this week since it’s the last week of class for the first summer session.

And yay for 6 days to the gym in the last week! GO ME!

καληνύχτα – aka Goodnite!

My hand is most definitely raised! Oh how I love this tv show! From the beautiful Lee Pace, to the amazing sets, to the brilliant idea, to the crime solving, to the hilarity…. I love everything – it’s just an amazing show. Frank said it’s the quintessential ME show… Not sure what he means by that haha… other than he thinks I’m a big weirdo.

Lee Pace

I mean, c’mon!! If nothing else, watch the show for the Pie Maker!

I hope Frank doesn’t see this post, cause he’ll be just a tad jealous : P

Well anyway, when I was at work earlier I was convinced that when I got home I’d clean and start working on my first paper for my class on Homer and be productive in general. So far I’ve eaten lunch… and started this blog haha. Oh, that’s a lie, I did dishes too, but it’s not like there was much to do.

That’s something I do enjoy about our apartment – there’s no dishwasher. And you may be thinking, “why the hell would you like that?” Well let me tell you: We don’t have enough dishes to fill a dishwasher anyway, so if we were continually putting our dishes in the dishwasher, we would run out of dishes before we had to run it. Next, since we have a small dish drainer for the dishes to dry in, we have to put the clean dishes away more often. When I lived at my parents house, I would always just stack dishes until there was no more room left and I had to put them away. Now that amount of time is much smaller haha. I don’t know, it just makes me neater, which is always good. I need things like that.

So, money’s getting tight, especially after spending $120 on groceries due to the fact that I had to buy a lot of stuff since I had absolutely nothing other than snacks and soy milk at my apartment. I think we’re going grocery shopping again tonite… hello credit card.

I’m usually really good about paying most of my bill on my credit cards every month, plus I’m usually pretty good about not using it much, but now I don’t even have the money too. BLEH.

Well, with that said, I think I’m going to do my reading for class tomorrow… or nap. One of the two.

καληνύχτα – aka Goodnite!
