Did You Take Your Meds?


Still in horrible mourning over the loss of Brittany Murphy. In the extras section of the Uptown Girl DVD you can hear her saying "dreams really do come true here in New York" and you actually believe Britany. I know I did. Gosh this is very devistating. And to top it off now it's all endijng up to be another prescription drug overdose. I REALLY hope it's not but that's what people are saying today. A numerous amount of medications were found in Brittany's room but none too crazy or out of the ordinary:Prozac, Klonopin, Ativan, Hydocodone, a bipolar diorder drug, anti-inflamatory drug, Propranolol(I don't know what this is), Migrane meds, and a couple anti-biotics.
If you wanted to you could surely take an inappropriate mix and quantity of these drugs. But I just don't think Brittany Murphy would do that. Or am I just being stupid and not wanting to see the truth. I mean we all like our drugs and for some of us, including myself, cannot live without medication. I mean am I next? These are all wayyy too close to home. WTF are the doctors and pharmacists doing? This SAME incident has been occuring and occuring over the past few years, killing many of those we looked up to. Am I safe tonight when I go to bed? It's just getting way to scary.

Any how.......I will try to finish this on a light note. Molly, Daisy, Stacy, Sarah, Nikki, or Alex; Whatever you would like to call this truely talented inspirational actress, may you rest in peace.

Spun, Girl Inturrupted, Uptown Girls, Just Married, 8 Mile, Clueless, Little Black Book, etc, etc.
She is wonderful and I hope this was caused naturally and not from prescriptions or weight issues.

Peace and Love

Come Feel This Magic I've Been Feeling Since I Met You


Hopefully this will get my current obsession out of the way but for the past week all I can do is listen, read, and find out everything I can about Taylor Swift! Now I don't know if I posted my obsession blog on this or if it's in my notes but I go through obsession phases quite often with musicians, other artists, and topics that capture my attention. This is why I spend a lot of time at the library!!! Well this week it was Taylor and let me tell you that I do believe everyone needs to take the time and listen to Fearless because Taylor is such a beautiful and truthful songwriter that you can actually picture yourself in every situation. This Album is based around boys, aka my favorite topic. I have no idea when this came out but I really wanted to go to a concert last week so I chose Taylor's and stole my mothers copy of the CD. At 1st I just listened to "You Belong With Me" over and over but soon I drifted onto other songs. I can't even pick a favorite because I seriously, and probably most of you as well, have been in these situations. Now it get off the topic of her album(which you must purchase!), I will tell you a few secrets I found out about Taylor.

1. Her idol is Britney Spears. Now if that doesn't say much I don't know what does. She gets an A+ in my book for that because Britney is also my idol!

2. Even though she's been dumped and broken hearted many times she still holds no angst against guys and believes in love. In my last post you will notice I wrote an almost similar statement about how in love I am with love, soulmates, and fairytales. And I've been burnt a lot.

3. My friend Shelly got to go onto her tour bus and meet her! She said she was sooo nice and sooo beautiful in person! And Shelly meeting her idol just made my heart smile for her these past few days. I'm just soo happy.

4. She loves what she does and she worked her ass off to get where she is. Writing all her own songs, and having her guitar by her side at all times. Believe it or not she has been singing, writing , and playing the guitar since age 8.

5. She admits to doing the best stalker move ever. We all do it from crushes to ex's........the classic drive by!!! My best friend and I did these at least once a day. We would borrow our friends cars and think we in disguise hahaha!

6. And best of all......She LOVES being a role model to her fans! You don't find that anymore so often. She stated that it is one of the most important things in her career. She's just a sweet little angel so who wouldn't love to follow in her footsteps?

To finalize this post here is a quote from Taylor about being Fearless and it's beautiful: Fearless is getting back up and fighting for what you want over and over again...even though every time you've tried before you've lost. It's Fearless to have faith someday that things will change.

Please listen to White Horse and Hey Stephen if you choose to download them. These are my current two favs! And please check out the great photos that I added to my album of her tour bus, T with her fans, and her wonderful concert!

Peace and Love
