Lazy Saturday

More rain! It's supposed to rain allllll weekend, after raining mostly all week. When will it end? I want to swim!

Back to re-watching Das Boot..

Kelly + Auto Insurance

For those of you not in the know, I'm just learning how to drive. Yeah, tell me more..eighteen and not driving? Give me a break! It's taken me this long for a variety of reasons, but mainly it was because I had a lot going on in my life between the ages of 15 and now, and also because I have this intense fear of driving off the edge of a cliff (even though there are no actual cliffs in Butler or the surrounding area). Now that I'm learning, however, I have to start thinking about the responsibilities that come with driving: maintaining and insuring a car.

I have done some research and Auto Advantage Quotes is a really good place to start when looking for insurance. Their website is easy to navigate and they have in-depth answers to any questions that you may have. I was particularly interested in their section about teen drivers. It was a relief to be reminded that I can receive a discount on my insurance since I took a driver's ed class (two years ago, but still!).

In the probable event that my uncle fixes a car up for me (it's a hobby of his), then I can look more into the insurance for classic cars. My uncle actually has lots of this kind of insurance, since he has basically a whole lot full of old cars that he drives around. He told my mother before that when I first learn to drive, I should get an "old clunker" and get insured on that so that my insurance isn't through the roof. I guess..

I hope that this website helps some of you guys! It's definitely cleared some stuff up for me. :)

Soundtracks

Yesterday I didn't have much to do (besides some terrible cleaning), so I decided to go through my extensive soundtrack collection and listen to some favorites. Most of my recent loved ones are on my Vision M, but there are some that I haven't heard in literally a year because I just haven't taken the time to rip them to the player.

Let me just say that I had forgotten how brilliant Pearl Harbor's soundtrack really is. I mean, the movie is wow, but the soundtrack is wow. And K-19: The Widowmaker? Truly epic.

On a topic vaguely touching that one, I've kind of been into submarine movies lately. A few years ago I fell in love with K-19, but I left it at that. Then I got Das Boot from Netflix a few weeks ago and pretty much fell over. Branching off, today I received Stalingrad from Netflix, which is from the same crew as Das Boot. I'm hoping for the best.

Everyone's asking me what I want for my birthday, now..

So, now that the paper is broken (for good? Who knows!) and my only creative outlet is Associated Content, I've joined a website called Blogsvertise. I'll write blogs about certain products and get paid for it. Brilliant or what? You can read more about it or join at: http://www.blogsvertise.com.

If I'm really lucky, maybe Mitt Romney will become a product and I can write about him--and get paid to do it! Then it'll be like I'm really interning for him..;)

I have decided to go back into volunteering for politicians. Obviously, Brian Ellis can testify as to how much I helped his campaign (hint: a lot).

I'm still going for Mitt Romney, but I'm kind of leaning towards Ron Paul now..I'm not sure, there's just something about Mitt that's starting to cheese me out. But Ron Paul really doesn't catch me either.

Why won't Rick Santorum run?

The Simple Life and Motorola

I love Motorola's commercials. They pick out awesome music. The latest favorite is a Feist song. Loves.

The Simple Life Goes To Camp was on last night. This season is definitely more fake than the others (except maybe the last season).

Will they cry when they hit bottom?

I finally saw Nancy Drew today.
I don't recommend it!
That's all.

Actually, no, that's not all! Emma Roberts was way too young for the part. The dialogue and acting all around were laughable. The plot wasn't what I was hoping for. 0/10 (and I think that's a first).

Have I mentioned that life is brilliant?
I have my own swimming pool now! :D
And on August 1st, I'm going to Prime Outlets to buy everything in the Hilfiger store.
Miss me?
