The one where I completely lose my head over the Pomegranates

Have I mentioned that I love the Pomegranates? Because I would like to make that perfectly clear. I LOVE the Pomegranates. LOOOVVVEEEE. Like, ice-cream-cake-with-Reese's-peanut-butter-cups love. And trust me, that's a lot of love.

You know how you'll always have that band that is YOUR band? Well that's the Pomegranates for me. I discovered them about a year ago, and wow. Just wow. This band was unlike anything I had heard- really interesting and different sounds, lyrics, and beats. Since then, I have collected all the songs I can- and it's been quite the fun challenge to try and find the rare live versions of songs as well as unreleased singles from their Woxy.com interview! If you ever find yourself bored at the computer, you go right to iTunes and you LISTEN. You listen to the whole dang album. And trust me, it is WORTH IT.


How can you not love that?

And not only is the band incredibly fun and unique, they're also ADORABLE. I mean, DANG, where have these guys been all my life.(I know I'm not supposed to pick favorites, but I am totally in love with Jacob, the drummer XD) They recently acquired a new member, Dan who is super cool and I already love as much as the rest. And they're making video blogs. VIDEO BLOGS!!! I cannot tell you how excited I am.



What I would love love love love is to one day have them come to CT on a tour, get to see their concert, meet them, hug them and take pictures with them. Really, that's all I want. And maybe if they're still in CT we can have lunch.

Gah, I'm such a Pomegranates fangirl. This may be inspired by the fact that they posted a picture of all of them in a pool swimming and I may have fainted in pure joy. MAY being the key word here.

Ahem, while I salvage what is left of my dignity, you can go check out their blog and see what all my fuss is about. They're really something, I promise :)

Thank God I know how to juggle, or else I'd be eaten by lions.

Okay, so the title is a little misleading. Unfortunatly for you readers, I am not faced (daily) with situations where I might have to juggle my way out. Although, there are a lot of figurative lions in my life. High school is a wild, wild place.

Only 3 more months and I'm off to Plymouth State, where hopefully I'll be living one, grad, college-y adventure. Maybe I'll meet the man I love. Or maybe I'll get the job of my dreams! Or maybe I'll meet some friends that I'll have for the rest of my life. Who knows? But the mystery of my future only makes it more exciting :)

But, for random puposes, I decided to tell you 7 things that you would never be able to guess by looking at me.

1. I play ice hockey! I played for 6 years, but I took this year off to really focus on school. However, during college, I plan on getting right back on my skates with a fun intermural team!

2. My Mom and Dad are still in love. I know that's not really about me, but I like to think it's had a BIG impact on my life. They still go on dates and giggle and tackle each other on the couch. I really hope to find a love like theirs one day.

3. I have been told by a majority of people that I'm the best smelling person they know. Random, but for some reason, that's my favorite compliment

4. I love to draw! I especially love doing black and white ink drawings- there's something so satisfying about that black and white color combo. Also....some of my paintings are kind of macabre. Example: the painting I'm working on right now is of a teddy bear in a robot suit destroying a city with rainbow swords.
Yeah.

5. My favorite band in the entire universe is a band called the Pomegranates. They're a crazy awesome (and crazy adorable) indie alternative band. I will be mentioning them often in the future, as I am embarking on a mission to convince them to come to CT. As of right now, I am making them a care package to bribe them into coming to CT for April, since it tis the month of my birth :D

6. I love simple, quiet things. My house, my bed, painting, reading, walking, plain v-neck t-shirts skinny jeans flip-flops and a scarf.

7. My biggest dreams are to do something good for the world, and to one day plan amazing concerts. I already plan a pretty big musical event in my school, so I'm off to a good start!

I hope I have shocked and stunned you all with my exciting revalations.

LOVE,
Kayla Mary
