Day 1 of the 30 Day Blog Challenge

Dear Blog,

As I am almost a week behind in the 30 Day Blog Challenge, I've opted to post a week's worth of blog entries at once.
On a side note: Is it cheating to blog ahead?

Day 01 — Your Favorite Song
I've always been a big fan of Weird Al and I have listened to him many times in my life. The funny and clean parodies of popular songs seems like a dream job.
And, of course, I love Taylor Swift, singing to her while I drive around town, walking to class, and even at random because she makes me smile. There are several of her songs, including "Teardrops on my Guitar," "You Belong With Me," "Today Was A Fairytale," "Jump And Fall," among others, that could fill my top spot.
I haven't reevaluated my favorite song in a while, so for now, my favorite song is still "Beautiful Disaster" by Kelly Clarkson (as presented on her album "Breakaway"). Kelly Clarkson's voice is amazing. The lyrics and melody are a tad sad. Loving someone can be painful; is it worth it? Because "He's as damned as he seems/And more heaven than a heart could hold."
I'm pretty sure I'd give it my all, even if it'd end in a beautiful disaster.


He drowns in his dreams
An exquisite extreme I know
He's as damned as he seems
And more heaven than a heart could hold
And if I try to save him
My whole world could cave in
It just ain't right
It just ain't right

Oh and I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful?
Or just a beautiful disaster

He's magic and myth
As strong as what I believe
A tragedy with
More damage than a soul should see
And do I try to change him?
So hard not to blame him
Hold on tight
Hold on tight

Oh 'cause I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful?
Or just a beautiful disaster

I'm longing for love and the logical
But he's only happy hysterical
I'm waiting for some kind of miracle
Waited so long
So long

He's soft to the touch
But frayed at the end he breaks
He's never enough
And still he's more than I can take

Oh 'cause I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful?
Or just a beautiful disaster

He's beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster

[Fading]
Beautiful
(Beautiful disaster)
Beautiful disaster

Until next time!
