As of today, I have officially had my new blog for one year! I can't even express how much blogging has meant to me in one of the most emotionally challenging years of my life. It has been cathartic, it lets me vent, it helps me figure out my feelings, and, of course, rave endlessly about celebrities.
However, the most wonderful part of blogging has been the incredible network of friends I've made. Whether it is feedback from my real life friends or the wonderful new ones I've made (especially you, Julie!), I can't thank everyone enough. This blog has brought me laughter, encouragement, and positive feedback that will always hold a special place in my heart. I love you all and here's to many more years!
In honor of the one-year mark, I have decided to introduce a new weekly segment. Once a week, I will make a top five list (not in order). Ideally, I would love for other bloggers to do the same (or readers can leave their lists in the comments). So, going along with this entry's title, I will name my...
Top 5 Beatles Songs
1. Something - Beautiful stuff from the often understated George.
2. Eleanor Rigby - Haunting chorus that I find myself humming more than any other song.
3. In My Life - Perhaps the most accurate description of memories ever written. I really, really love John Lennon.
4. Blackbird - So beautiful. Lyrics and acoustic guitar. I also loved the Glee version.
5. All You Need is Love - My life motto. I believe this whole-heartedly.
It pains me not to mention "A Day in the Life," "Yesterday," "Come Together," "Here Comes the Sun," and "I am the Walrus." Oops. Is that cheating?
I like this new segment already!
ReplyDelete1. While My Guitar Gently Weeps
2. Hey Jude
3. Something
4. Strawberry Fields Forever
5. I am the Walrus
If you can truly narrow it down to 5 then you may not be a Beatles fan, so I would allow the add-ins... um the whole White Album?!
