A Juggling Act

"Circus" - Britney Spears

What a weekend! Rain, sickness, and a baby shower...oh my! We had decor to lay out, tents to pop up, food to prepare, drinks to purchase, guests to entertain, and a soon-to-be mommy to keep happy.

Everyone was running around in a frenzy making sure all our i's were dotted and t's crossed. We had a lot to do and limited time to work with. So with a ball of tissue in hand and tons of cold medicine in my system, my family and I took off running and never stopped!

Funny how I woke up with this song blasting in my head the next day. Maybe because the day before was a CIRCUS trying to fit over 70 people in a small house comfortably on top of fighting the weather and maintaining our health...and not to mention, sanity! It was a juggling act to say the least and everyone was watching to see how it will all end. But I'm proud to say we pulled off the most beautiful event for the most beautiful Ate (older sister) and as expected, we put on an awesome show!










Lyrics:

There's only two types of people in the world:
The ones that entertain, and the ones that observe
Well baby, I'm a put on a show kind of girl
Don't like the backseat, gotta be first

I'm like the ringleader, I call the shots (Call the shots)
I'm like a firecracker, I make it hot
When I put on a show
I feel the adrenaline moving through my veins
Spotlight on me and I'm ready to break
I'm like a performer
The dance floor is my stage
Better be ready
Hope that you feel the same

All eyes on me in the center of the ring
Just like a circus
When I crack that whip everybody gon' trip
Just like a circus
Don't stand there watching me
Follow me, show me what you can do
Everybody let go
We can make a dance floor
Just like a circus

There's only two types of guys out there:
Ones that can hang with me, and ones that are scared
So baby, I hope that you came prepared
I run a tight ship, so beware

I'm like the ringleader, I call the shots (Call the shots)
I'm like a firecracker, I make it hot
When I put on a show
I feel the adrenaline moving through my veins
Spotlight on me and I'm ready to break
I'm like a performer
he dance floor is my stage
Better be ready
Hope that you feel the same

All eyes on me in the center of the ring
Just like a circus
When I crack that whip everybody gon' trip
Just like a circus
Don't stand there watching me
Follow me, show me what you can do
Everybody let go
We can make a dance floor
Just like a circus

Let's go! (Uh, uh, uh, uh, Uh-huh)
Let me see what you can do (Uh, uh, uh, uh, Uh-huh)
I'm running this (Like, like, like, like a circus)
Yeah, like a what? (Like, like, like, like a circus)

All eyes on me in the center of the ring
Just like a circus
When I crack that whip everybody gon' trip
Just like a circus
Don't stand there watching me
Follow me, show me what you can do
Everybody let go
We can make a dance floor
Just like a circus

All eyes on me in the center of the ring
Just like a circus
When I crack that whip everybody gon' trip
Just like a circus
Don't stand there watching me
Follow me, show me what you can do
Everybody let go
We can make a dance floor
Just like a circus

Welcome to People

Songs TBA Last night, I saw a special, private screening courtesy of the Screening Exchange called, "Welcome to People" directed by Alex Kurtzman. I loved it and it wasn't something that I thought I'd love. In fact, I almost changed my mind at the last minute when I saw that familiar long line down the steps at Arclight Paseo. I figured, "Hell it's just another movie." But I'm so glad I didn't turn around. I'm glad I stood in the back of the line, got my hand stamped and cell phone taken away for nearly 3-hours in order to be in a room filled with strangers. I just wish I had something with me to write down the great songs I heard that disappeared by the time I logged onto this blog. It makes me appreciate technology...so check it out when it comes out. I'll make sure I have my cell phone handy the next time I see it so I can grab some songs along the way. Oh, I'm Hannah, not Frankie and let me know what you think.

Love Is Not Blind

"Colorblind" - Counting Crows I originally had a Dave Matthews Band song in my head, but like always I'm bending the rules a little bit and going with what's in my heart. After all, I couldn't follow my last blog with something you didn't like, could I? That just wouldn't fit and this seems to do just that. This song reminds me of the movie Cruel Intentions . It's hard not to think of it. Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe's chemistry was so strong, especially in their steamy love scene with this song playing in the background, that any other memory pales in comparison. I always thought the lyrics were so simple and romantic, but it became even clearer here. There was no doubt about it. I knew instantly that they were a real life couple even before they announced it. Love is obvious. Acting can never really be this good unless two people have genuine feelings for each. Look at Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams in The Notebook and Angelina Jolie ...
