You and I

By Tim Anaya & Katee Syphax
No you weren’t there my honey,
We may not have any money
But we’ve got a lot to pay the bills
Maybe I think you’re cute and funny
Maybe I want to do what bunnies do
With you, and you know what I mean
Oh let’s get rich and buy our Paris homes in the south of France
Let’s get rich and give everybody nice sweaters
And teach them how to dance
Let’s get rich and build a house on a mountain making everybody look like ants
Way up there, you and I, you and I
Well you might be a bit a confused,
And you might be a little bit bruised.
But baby, how it’s like no one else
So I will help you read those books
If it will ease my worry looks
And we will put the loads up on the shelf
Oh let’s get rich and buy our Paris homes in the south of France
Let’s get rich and give everybody nice sweaters
And teach them how to dance
Let’s get rich and build a house on a mountain making everybody look like ants
Way up there, you and I, you and I
Oh let’s get rich and buy our Paris homes in the south of France
Let’s get rich and give everybody nice sweaters
And teach them how to dance
Let’s get rich and build a house on a mountain making everybody look like ants
Way up there, you and I, you and I


*These lyrics may not be 100% accurate, because I couldn't hear everything clearly...but they're close enough.

I came across this song written by some friends from my home stake back in Whittier, and I thought it was so fun and cute, and just love the message of it. It reminded me, I still have to write my one magical song before I die. Now I know I'm not dying tomorrow, but if I'm ever going to get any better at guitar, I gots to start pulling that thing out every day. So I started practicing again 2 days ago, and it's amazing how much my fingers have forgotten already. But it's coming back, as I practice. I plan on practicing every day, or at least a reasonable amount each week, so that I can be more relaxed, in fact, I started playing guitar in the first place because I found it to be relaxing. So now it's time to refocus and get back to working toward my "one song." In the meantime, listen to "You and I" by Tim Anaya & Katee Syphax" on here, or if it doesn't work check them out on youtube.com! :)

A Few of My Favorite Things That Start with the Letter "M"

My childhood friend, Amy, posted a blog with ten things that all started with the same letter! Her cousin gave her the letter she used, and then after reading her funny blog entry filled with thing's that started with the letter "K," I asked Amy to give me a letter! She gave me my letter of "M." Being skeptical, I thought this would be hard, but a list of 10 quickly became a list of 21, so I went back, and chose my top ten to share with y'all. And here's what I came up with . Ten Things I Like That Start with the Letter "M": 1. Mother. Well, this was the first thing that came to my mind when thinking of the letter "M". The sweet image of my dear mother. If any of you know anything about my mother...you've probably heard me mention how crazy she is! But what I mean by crazy is that I don't know where she gets all her energy from, at the whopping age of 29 years old (Haha! Or so she'll tell you that she's that ...

The Law of Tithe & Knowing He Is Real

I woke up this morning. Everything was as it should be, life was absolutely perfect with it's imperfections, and I was completely content. I began my morning brushing my teeth, reflecting on what had occurred the night before. I sat in my room, on my little spot clearing among a disastrous mess that I was trying to clean up, and after speaking on the phone with my mother, I decided to go to a corner of my room. I kneeled down to pray, and out loud I gave a long sincere prayer of thanks to my Heavenly Father. It's amazing how long we can go doing things incorrectly, even though we already know what we should be doing and that it will help us of we practice obedience. The Law of Tithing is one of those great commandments I struggle with. I could perhaps say that my parents didn't really ingrain this law in my head well enough, but I never had to deal with this type of responsibility until I moved out of the home. So I must face reality, and know that the responsibility...

Speed Dating

I'm not so sure I've ever been a real big fan of dating, or speed dating at that matter. But then again, my dating experiences have been so few, that I can't really judge speed dating too harshly. If anything, I would practice meeting more people, spend time getting to know my friends better, and just have a great time laughing at the most bizarre conversations. So for those of you who haven't ever been speed dating, it's the funniest thing ever. Luckily, it was a combined ward activity, so there were a lot of people from ward there that I knew, and I had the opportunity to meet some new people from the other ward. On this occasion, I only had 90 seconds to talk to a person before I had to move down the line of chairs to meet someone new. At first I was like, I'm sitting among my ward member friends, and I already know them, but then I thought it will be fun to ask them questions I've never really asked them before. Some people were really interesting ...
