Let's Get Personal: So What Am I Doing Now?

Hello, remaining readers of this blog (i.e. my mom)! So this is my first post after being on hiatus for so long. It took a while for me to figure out what it would be. I was thinking I would do a cumulative "Favorite Songs of 2014" post earlier this year, but I had a hectic start to 2015 since I both started a new job and moved to a new place. Now that I'm more settled in, I definitely want to start writing again.

What I look like now if you weren't already aware.This is the same face I make in every selfie and I always make sure to include a marine animal.

The Gossip Mob is Going on HIATUS

You heard that right, folks. This blog will be on hiatus indefinitely. Read on to find out why.

What I've Been Listening To (Vol. 3 - Girl Power Edition)

As an attempt to avoid another #songtorture, I've decided to write a second post for this week! I haven't done a "What I've Been Listening To" in a while, so I thought it'd be good to catch you guys up on what I've been digging lately.

The theme of this list is girl power, and I promise you it came about by accident. Surprisingly, though, there is absolutely no kpop at all in this list!

These Are The Questions: Why Does T-Pain Use Autotune? And Does Singing Well REALLY Matter?

But do these answers really matter since T-Pain is richer than all of us anyway?

So a lot of people I follow on social media were sharing T-Pain's NPR "Tiny Desk Performance" a while ago (Yes! I'm late!! Again!!!). The reactions to his performance have mostly sounded like this: "Oh my gosh he's such a good singer, I hope he never uses autotune again!" I'm going to tell you why this kind of reaction is a problem.

At this point, I should stop making apologies before every post I make. This blog hasn’t been regularly updated as I had originally intended. Instead of apologizing, let’s make a deal: for every week that goes by that I DON’T make a blog post, I’m going to force myself to listen to five songs that I do not share an inkling of joy or respect for. I’ll post them on my Twitter if you want regular updates on my song torture. Now I can officially stop apologizing!

What I've Been Listening To (Vol. 2)

Why hello there! It’s been a while since I wrote my last blog post (don’t I always say that?). I was so astounded by the positive feedback on my personal The Voice audition account, I wondered how I could top it. Sadly, due to not doing anything particularly interesting lately, I couldn’t come back with another great “Let’s Get Personal” post. But if there’s one thing I always do even when life slows down, it’s listen to music. So here’s volume TWO of “What I’ve Been Listening To”!

Let's Get Personal: My Audition for The Voice

Hey guys! As I mentioned in my past post, one of the reasons I neglected this blog in the past month was because I was preparing for my audition for The Voice. I went to the Saturday audition on July 19^th. I bet you’re all wondering how I did and what my results were. Well, obviously I’m not going to tell you that now because then you won’t read the rest of this post!

Before I get into anything, let’s get a few things out of the way:
