Truly, Madly, Bloody – Music from True Blood

21. August 2009 · Filed under: Mixtapes, Music · 2 Comments 

I’m a huge fan of the HBO television series True Blood, based on the The Southern Vampire Mysteries book series by Charlaine Harris. While the show is awesome, the music they choose week after week is phenomenal. Between country to electronic, the show never fails to pick the perfect music to compliment each episode.

Which means what? Well, it means that I am far overdue on making a mixtape of some great songs featured on the series! I’ve included some of my personal favorites from season one and two. For someone who hasn’t seen this fantastic show, I highly recommend it. For those of you who are already fans, be prepared to feast on some bloody good tunes.

Track Listing:

Bad Things – Jace Everett
Sweet Jane – Cowboy Junkies
The Forgotten People – Thievery Corporation
Timebomb – Beck
Two – Ryan Adams
Death Trip – Bad Livers
Escape From Dragon House - Dengue Fever
Sex and Candy – Marcy Playground
Half Of You – Cat Power
Day Too Soon – Sia
Until I Wake Up – Dishwalla
Trouble – Ray LaMontagne
Bleeding Love – Leona Lewis

If you like any of the songs listed above, please support the artist by purchasing them.

Tyler Durden Quote

14. September 2008 · Filed under: BlahBlahBlog · 3 Comments 

“Warning: If you are reading this then this warning is for you. Every word you read of this useless fine print is another second off your life. Don’t you have other things to do? Is your life so empty that you honestly can’t think of a better way to spend these moments? Or are you so impressed with authority that you give respect and credence to all that claim it? Do you read everything you’re supposed to read? Do you think every thing you’re supposed to think? Buy what you’re told to want? Get out of your apartment. Meet a member of the opposite sex. Stop the excessive shopping and masturbation. Quit your job. Start a fight. Prove you’re alive. If you don’t claim your humanity you will become a statistic. You have been warned.” – Tyler Durden, from the movie Fight Club, based on the book Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk

Hi! My Name is Veronika!

10. September 2008 · Filed under: Reading & Writing · 3 Comments 

I read the book Veronika Decides To Die by Paulo Coelho a few years ago after I was discussing my life with a friend and they said I reminded them of the lead character Veronika. I took them up on their advice and I am so grateful for it. It is a great book and if you are ever thinking that your life will never change or if you feel like life is just a bunch of nonsense, I totally recommend this book!

I completely related to the character and when I finished reading the book, I took something away from it. Below is an excerpt of the first chapter. If you can relate to this small part, read this book!
