How to Save a Life!

Just out of the blue today, I started humming How to Save a Life by The Fray.  And then I hit me!  I've got to learn this song on the piano!  The piano in that song is amazing!  Here's the video I'm going to try to learn from (You can listen to the whole thing if you want, but it's long.  The first part of the video is the actual song and the second part is the song played extremely slowly:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYjN2kmRj3Y&feature=related
Here's part 2 of the song (played extremely slowly lol)  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OScOaArQ-wM&feature=related 

and this person plays it sooo well! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvPEEZ9nuUw&feature=related  

I really like this song as you can see.

Regular Activities

Lately, I've been thinking about activities I could do on a regular basis, besides work and babysitting. I use to be on a track team. I was a member for about 6-8 years. We use to meet twice a week and have a track meet twice a year! Eventually, the coach went to college, so everyone stopped meeting. I use to sing in the Church choir. That was a while ago, but it was very fun! We'd practice once a week, and sing at Mass on the last Sunday of every month (sometimes more often if there was an extra special occasion). I also took piano lessons pretty much once a week for about 4 years.

So, I've been thinking, maybe volunteering would be a good idea. And maybe setting one or two days every month aside special for praying at an abortion mill. I'm open to any suggestions!

Rascal Flatts!

Rascal Flatts is my all time favorite Country artist!!! "My Wish", "Bless the Broken Road", and "Mayberry" are some of their most awesome songs!!! A few days ago, I came across this video while trying to find a video that would help me learn how to play "My Wish" on the piano. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHlt7NKKwmE&feature=related It's only part of the song, but I thought it sounded very nice!

Here's the song with lyrics: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQZvaDzyqHg

Aren't the lyrics great?

Trans-Siberian Orchestra


I know...it's not Christmas anymore, but I still would like to share this!

This TSO song is called "Wisdom of Snow": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2qs75YJVZA (I am not playing the song in the video). While I was on a trip, I watched this video along with other videos like it. I thought it was nice and easy enough to play on the piano. When I got home from the trip, I practiced the song and was able to play it pretty well after about 2 hours of practice. It was fun! I like playing the song a bit faster than the one played in the video.
