Music: He Puts The Awesome In Music

First off, yes I know there's no "awesome" in music. I ain't stupid...

Anyway, the HE that I'm talking about is the ever uber cool- Macklemore!

He is just... wow...

Thrift Shop even with all the unnecessary swearing, the song is absolutely INSPIRING! It tells you something about spending. We don't need lots of cash and large stores to be happy.

However, if anyone TOUCHES Bergdorf's or Free People, I will hint you down and hurt you. A lot.

Getting back on track though, I love his crazy outfits, like the one he wore to the MTV Movie Awards (below).

His style is just amaze... btw, whoever is his music video stylist is the awesomest person ever.

He is an absolute inspiration. Love you Mack! Check out his most popular songs on YouTube.

Can't Hold Us and Thrift Shop

Cred for the idea totally goes to my new awesome friend: Tanja who has THE best taste in music (she like Marina and the Diamonds! Aaah!)

We're going to be mentionong each other's blogs and stuff. She's uber-cool.

Inspiring Children and Lemonade Stands

I'm the kind of person to get involved in all this stuff, even if it's just behind-the-scenes at the moment. Last year, I found this blog just randomly and I was bored and decided, what the hey? I was immediately inspired and I fell in love with the little girl who began this thing sleflessly and knowing that she might die someday.

I'm talking about Alex's Lemonade Stand, founded by Alexandra Flynn Scott (pic below. Isn't she adorable?) in 2004. She was diagnosed with neuroblastoma (a type of cancer) shortly before her first birthday and her doctor said she might never walk again (of course, she did). She was cancer-free until the year 2000 when the family found out that the tumors had begun to grow again.

She decided to start a lemonade stand to raise money and (in her words): "...give the money to doctors to allow them to help other kids, like they helped me"

She started her stand with her older brother and they raised $2000 in that first year. Amazing or amazing?

I fell in love right there and decided to "adopt" her charity. I want to be a part of what she started and the only way I can do that is through my writing. So I will.

Unfortunately, Alex passed away in 2008 at the age of 8 but she had raised more than $1 million with the help of her parents and so many wonderful people who were inspired by her story. She is more than an inspiration. It could not have been easy with all those treatments that make one sick and tired all the time, but she did it. We could all definitely take a page out of her book.

Alex Fact: She wanted to be a fashion designer. Go Lex!

If you want to be a part of the action, you can go here to learn more.

Also, if you want to know more about Alex (and yes, you want to) go here.

Join the fight and help them out in finding a cure and all.

Love,

Golda x

It's big, it's sooo pretty, it's the name of everyone's fave TV show.

It's: THE BIG BANG! Yes, yes, yes, THAT song by THAT awesome prod. group Rock Mafia. We know them, especially us teenyboppers. Here's the vid. Miley Cyrus is as usual charming a hot boy out of our hands. Oh, how we hate to love her...
