Music discovery...well kind of

When on youtube last night, which is where I spend lots of my spare 'net time' I came across a totally talented guy who does a lot of cover songs but also has his own original songs and my golly, hes is amazing. I cant believe this guy isnt famous and making millions like so many musicians out there that for lack of a better word, suck. He's name is Alex Goot. Amazing! Simply amazing. He plays all his music on his own and sings on his own and totally makes the original song seem like a cover of his. He is so great. I first watched his video doing a cover of Hold it Against me from Britney Spears and hes version is totally wicked. He is so beast! You guys must check him out. He has his versions of the songs available on itunes and has an album called Songs I wish I wrote and its a must buy. By the way, he has so idea that I am mentioning him on my blog, since first off I am a first time blogger and have not one follower and 2nd this is my own personal honest opinion on this and anything that I mention on my blog from my 1st post to my last post. So seriously check him out on youtube! Hes simply amazing!

Thank God for at&t

Praise the Lord!!! At&t had the power supply cord I needed to get my internet back! Yay, you have no idea how sad my 5 year old brother was without his pbskids.org lol. He constantly told me to fork over the $80 bucks for a new router, and thank goodness I didnt. The replacement cord was only $10 and it made the internet come back instanlty & first thing he does is run all over the house looking for his netbook. Wow, kids and technology. I remeber at that age playing outside in this hot Texas weather and hes over here playing games on the internet. Wow what a difference 20 years makes.

What?!?! Where have I been?

I can not believe it. I just blogged about the Bundle Monster plates and now they are coming up with a new 25 piece set to be out in about 3 weeks?!?!? Really, wow talk about being out of the loop due to my Internet wireless router messing up and having to get all my info on my cell or when Im at the University. Great...Wow I'm so excited to try them now. OMG, I cant wait, my heart is a racing, lol. I am so going to buy these when they come out and according to another blogger, bundle monster says there will be enough for everyone and will be sold through amazon. Wow...is all  can say. Im upset that I had no idea and excited cause I've seen a few photos of what they are gonna look like and my gosh...GORGEOUS!!! Join in my excitement people!

Nail Stamping...Have you tried it?

Nail stamping is something I discovered through youtube. I am a youtube fanatic! I was checking out my subscriptions when i came across nail art videos. I was like hmmm, I like to do my nails, but I really cant afford to go to the salon each week or so to get them done. So when watching a nail art video, I came across Konad Nail Stamping system. I was so intrigued. For those who dont know what nail stamping is, its where there are images engraved into these metal plates and nailpolish is brushed on then wiped away and then stamped onto your nailbed. It seems wierd, but so very simply and amazing! The image plate comes with 6-9 images (depending on the size of the images). All you do is grab a nailpolish and dab it over the image you want to use and with the nail scraper you wipe away the excess and with the stamping tool you press firmly and release, releasing the image onto the stamping tool where you then roll it onto your finger nail. Its crazy amazing. The youtube video made it seem like magic, I had to get one for myself. I went to a marketplace and had to order it. I however went with an affordable version of the Konad Nail Stamping which is BundleMonster. Wow what a deal. 21 nail imaging plates for $17.99 free shipping. I recieved the image plates and went on to making the cutest designs ever! I love that I can change my nails everyday if I wanted to. The only thing that happens now is that everytime Im out shopping, I check out the nailpolish! I recommend this nail stamping system for anyone who loves nails but cant afford to get them professionally done each week. Check it out, you wont regret it!
*quick note, to get the images to come out in the best quality, they sell Konad Special Polish which is at an average $6.99 each which is quite out there for those on a budget. I purchased 3, a black, white and silver. I figured those would be great basics and I love them. Check out amazon, and also go ahead and google these image plates and you'll be amazed how awesome your nails can be and for a steal compared to getting them done each week! Oh and I'd buy a great clear topcoat to make this images shine and last longer!!!!!

New to the blogging scene...

So this is blogging. Seems cool. I have come to the realization that if I could just comunicate everything and anything that I thought, felt, did, want to do, I would be a lot happier. Happiness is important. Sometimes keeping things inside can hurt you not only physically, emotionally but spiritually. My spirit longs to share my life and my experiences with all who will listen (or in this case read) =) My life in a few characters, everyday? Every other day? Every week? We'll see how it goes, but for now, Im Just Monica Marie!
