 When Firmoo.com contacted me a few weeks ago asking if I'd like to review a pair of their glasses, I may have gotten super excited. I'd heard good things about them via other bloggers. Plus, I needed a pair of glasses for my mission! What fancy timing!

Anyway, I chose my pair and submitted the order. I figured it might take a while for them to process and ship my glasses - I was actually a little worried they wouldn't come until after I left! Not to worry though, regardless of shipping from China, my order was processed, shipped, and delivered within ten days! I was super impressed.

Holy cow, guys, I love these glasses. They were delivered last Thursday and I've scarcely taken them off since I opened the package. I love RayBan Wayfarers, but I certainly cannot afford them - these frames are such a fantastic alternative! You can find them here.






Firmoo would like everyone to know that glasses are not only for people with vision problems anymore! Glasses are becoming a big fashion trend, and are a must-have accessory - they can instantly upgrade your style. That said, Firmoo offers both prescription (like mine) and non-prescription lenses, as well as the latest trends in frames (like my Wayfarer-style frames here), for glasses, sunglasses, and goggles.

Want to change up your style a little bit, or need/want a new pair of glasses like I did? Firmoo will make it easy for you! They have launched their First-Pair-Free program to people worldwide, which is exactly what it sounds like - you pay nothing except shipping! With their wide selection of high quality frames, numerous options for lenses, and fashionable designs, as well as their impeccable service and fast delivery, I am quite certain you will not be disappointed. It's totally risk-free - give it a try, hm? They've made a believer out of me... That's for sure! I know where to go for replacement glasses in the future!

why disney is my favorite

I may have shed tears...

That is all.

there's a new philosopher up in here

Soo... Calvin and Hobbes. Best comic strip. Right?

SEQUEL STRIP!

The only downside is that there are only 4 of them...

1 - 2 - 3 - 4

mree speaks my mind (again)

Remember when I discovered Mree?

And how she's like the best ever?

All I'm going to say is that this song is perfect.

Against the Current

So they say

There are other fishes in the sea

But the only one that’s missing

is the one that swims for me.

And so you say,

“Oh dear just wait patiently,

Love will come along, eventually.”

So I tried to swim against the current

To live my life and let me be

So don’t cast me a line 

‘cause I’ve run out of time

To live a lie

I can’t deny

You’ve hooked me so deep again

With your smart and witty lines

You have soiled my disguise 

and then the waves

oh the waves they come crashing down

when I see the look in your eyes

when you’re watching her walk by

“If you’re looking to fit in then join the rest

‘Cause you know you’ll only end up second best”

They said,

If you want to swim along the current,

then act and speak the way we do

You may be untrue 

but if you’d rather be us

Then why be you?

What a beautiful lie to live.

So I’ve learned to swim against the current

To live my life and now I’m free

Because honestly,

there’s no one else I’d rather be.

So watch me leave.

neglect

Neglect is serious, my friends. Serious business. It can even cause fatalities.
Me neglecting this blog probably won't cause your death, but in any case, I apologize for being a fail blogger!
I move back up to Logan tomorrow night, so hopefully once I'm up there I'll have more time to give 'er a little more lovin. :)

In the meantime, please enjoy this -

I don't care if you've already heard it, listen again. The guitar is so perfect. :)

Met this guy today! He was really cool and is really talented! If you go to his Facebook page you can get this and two other songs for free! Click here to do so.

One of my favorite covers ever, officially.

I am unbelievably excited for this new album... September 24th! :)

Peace, biscuits.

the staves

Some people are born with raw, beautiful, incredible talent, and The Staves have that. 

Their recorded/produced tracks sound no different live. 

I don't mean that in a "their producer sucks" sort of way. 

I mean it in a "they don't need any fixing" sort of way. 

They. Are. So. Incredible.

So incredible, in fact, that I have this dream to be in a Staves-esque band now. 

My friend Shanley, hopefully my friend Melanie, and I are going to make this happen at school this fall. :) Anyway, just listen to them already.

My favorite song from them!

My favorite song from their Live EP

I was going to post more of their music, but honestly, I'd probably end up posting all of it. They only have three EPs out at this point, so there are only about nine songs to listen to other than some of their live stuff on Youtube (there's not a lot of different songs on those either, but there are some).

This is The Staves. With Tad. And me. :)

They have a full-length album coming out in September! I know where my extra money is going.

If they're ever in Salt Lake again and anyone wants someone to go with - call me up. 

I'll be going for sure.
