New Favourite Song EVER!

Okay, so I know this is a cover but I heard the cover before I heard the original and I fell in love with it, not to mention this girls voice as well! So take a listen and fall in love. 


Cups (When I'm Gone) by Lulu and the Lampshades cover from Pitch Perfect: 

If you liked that song and want to learn how to "play" the cups part you can watch this girl's instructional video, super helpful! 

Or, if you just can't get it or can't sing and play at the same time (like me) you can use this "karaoke" video. 

Enjoy :) 

This.

Grinds My Gears.

You know what really grinds my gears? Well, a lot of things but I'm just going to touch on some of them right now. First thing, parents (after moving out on your own).  I understand they worry and all but it's one thing to show concern and another to blatantly show that they have no confidence in you and expect you to fail. Here's an example for you. The other day my boyfriend posted a status about his terrible morning, I guess his parents' friend saw it and commented on it telling him that if he moved back home to his parents house he wouldn't have those kind of problems because they would take care of him. His mom later on commented agreeing with her friend and pointed out that things wouldn't be like that at her house. By saying this they both directly implied that I'm not doing a good enough job keeping things in order. At first when I read all of these comments I was really angry. But then I thought "you know what? That makes no sense whatsoever." His whole status was about how when he woke up he stepped in pee (because we have a puppy), then he went out to start and brush off his truck (which is a lie because I did it, just like I do every morning) and while he was outside the dog ate his breakfast (which is also a lie because he never gets up early enough to eat breakfast) and found out that his truck wouldn't start because it wasn't plugged in (even though it started fine and was plugged in the night before) and then he backed into a tree because there was snow covering the back window and blah blah blah. Anyway  back to the point, these people are saying that if he were to move back home then these things would never happen, but to me that just doesn't sound right at all. His parents live 45 minutes out of town so he would have to wake up even earlier, which he wouldn't do seeing as the whole reason he was late was because he didn't get up on time, the only difference there would be is that he wouldn't have any excuses as to why he was late and would be forced to be honest about it. The fact that they think that he would be better off living back at home irritates me because they have no clue what goes on in our home, and what we do. They were saying things like "oh your mom will take care of you" and "I'd even make your lunch!" Basically saying that he would have everything handed to him. First of all, he already does have a lot of things handed to him. I do all of the housework, his only "chores" consist of taking out the garbage, helping me with dishes, and getting me to and from work and it's on his way to his classes anyway  I also do all of the budgeting and expenses. All he ever has to do is take out his half of the money for rent once a month and the landlords come and collect it. Any other bills I personally pay for through online accounts that I have created and I keep record of everything that has to be paid, and when it was paid. I even pay for half of his gas. I keep track of who pays for groceries and make sure it's always balanced between the two of us and a lot of times I'll buy things we need and won't write it down because I don't mind picking up a few things without making him pay for half of them. Another comment on the status was "think of all of the money you'd save!" But in reality, not much. He would no longer have someone paying for half of his gas and he'd be spending $25 in gas every day to get to school and back from where they live, not including going other places (he has school 5 days a week so that's $125 a week or $500 a month, which is substantially larger than what he pays for rent in a month and with the other bills it would be about roughly the same).

 I know I take good care of my boyfriend, in fact I feel like I often put him before myself. I may not be perfect and sometimes things get a little hectic and it's hard to keep up with life but I try my hardest and I'm only just transitioning into adulthood. We have been living on our own for only 5 months, I'm not going get the hang of it right away but I will eventually. And another thing that blew my mind once I started thinking about it, do they have no aspirations for him whatsoever? Do they really expect him to live with his parents for the rest of their lives? I mean, he has to go his own way eventually, so why not let him do it now? I don't know if it's just because maybe they don't like me or something, but regardless, you have to let your kid do what he wants, not what you think he should do, because I'm sorry to say but he's an adult now who can make his own decisions. It's time for him to be a man, it's time for him to make mistakes and learn from them, it's time for him to figure things out himself and stop clinging to mommy whenever he needs something. One thing you need to know when you're finally an adult and are out facing the world on your own for the first time is that you have to be able to figure things out no matter what life throws at you. Instead of sitting there complaining about it you should do something about it. Had a bad morning? Make the next one better by being prepared. Something is bothering you? Talk about it and find a solution. Have money problems? Get a second (or better) job. I did. I was working two jobs and still came home and did housework and paperwork, AND I'm still trying to go through schooling too. You can't lean on your parents forever, and parents have to stop being "helicopter parents" you can't always be there, your "little baby: is not a baby any more. Offer support if they need, give advice but never try and do everything for your kid or they will never be successful in life because they will always be waiting for whatever to be handed to them. I'm sorry if this is very blatant or offensive to some people but I'm entitled to my own opinion and sharing my personal views from my own experiences. I'm not saying this is how it goes with every "helicopter parent" and their kid but I've seen it lots. And take it from someone who has worked for everything she has ever had in her whole life, it feels much better when you accomplish something on your own and you appreciate it more than when you get something handed to you. 

I'm done ranting for now.
