Hear my thoughts in every note

Today we spent time with my extended family at my aunt's house.  It was nice.  We had so much food that I could not eat any more even if I tried to.  We opened presents, as is the tradition. :)  I got a crock pot and a crock pot cook book. :)  Which will be awesome for cooking dinner when I have lots of homework or studying to do. Hunter got Jelly Belly jelly beans. He was super excited about it because he loves jelly beans.  He also got two shirts and a tie from my mom and me.

Hunter and I talked about wedding stuff today too. We have put together a guest list and talked about some of the things that need to be decided soon.  We've been looking at pictures and finding out what we want for our pictures.  I've been looking for cake people and Hunter has been looking for houses.  I'm going up to Bakersfield on Tuesday to look at dresses.  I'm trying to get most of the planning done before school starts again.  I don't want to have to take time away from studying or homework to do planning stuff that could have been done earlier. I really need to do well this semester because I'm taking a lot of major specific classes.

It's hard to believe that tomorrow is Christmas Eve and that Christmas is here. It seems like it snuck up on me.  Still, I don't know if any gift can top what I already have for Christmas. :)



"Stereo Hearts" by Gym Class Heroes featuring Adam Levine

"My heart's a stereo
It beats for you so listen close
Hear my thoughts in every note
Make me your radio
And turn me up when you feel low
This melody was meant for you
Just sing along to my stereo

If I was just another dusty record on the shelf
Would you blow me off and play me like everybody else
If I asked you to scratch my back could you manage that
Like yeah, check it Travie, I can handle that
Furthermore, I apologize for any skipping tracks
It's just the last girl that played me left a couple cracks
I used to, used to, used to, used to, now I'm over that
'Cause holding grudges over love is ancient artifacts

If I could only find a note to make you understand
I'd sing it softly in your ear and grab you by the hand
Just keep me stuck in your head like your favorite tune
And know my heart's a stereo that only plays for you

My heart's a stereo
It beats for you so listen close
Hear my thoughts in every note
Make me your radio
And turn me up when you feel low
This melody was meant for you
Just sing along to my stereo

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh to my stereo
Oh, oh, oh, oh so sing along to my stereo

Let's go!
If I was an old-school fifty pound boombox (remember them?)
Would you hold me on your shoulder wherever you walk
Would you turn my volume up in front of the cops
And crank it higher every time they told you to stop
And all I ask is that you don't get mad at me
When you have to purchase mad D batteries
Appreciate every mixtape your friends make
You never know, we come and go like on the interstate

I think I finally found a note to make you understand
If you can hit it, sing along and take me by the hand
Just keep me stuck in your head like your favorite tune
You know my heart's a stereo that only plays for you

My heart's a stereo
It beats for you so listen close
Hear my thoughts in every note
Make me your radio
And turn me up when you feel low
This melody was meant for you
Just sing along to my stereo

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh to my stereo
Oh, oh, oh, oh so sing along to my stereo

I only pray you'll never leave me behind (never leave me)
Because good music can be so hard to find (so hard to find)
I take your head and hold it closer to mine
Thought love was dead, but now you're changing my mind

My heart's a stereo
It beats for you so listen close
Hear my thoughts in every note
Make me your radio
And turn me up when you feel low
This melody was meant for you
Just sing along to my stereo

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh to my stereo
Oh, oh, oh, oh so sing along to my stereo"
