Goodies.

Life is good when you have cinnamon rolls.
But not when it takes about 3 hours to make. You see, I'm slow when it comes to baking because I lag a lot. This time, not only did I lag, but I had to leave the dough out for and hour and then leave the rolls out for 45 mins. I baked this while I was watching the Teen Choice Awards.

Pretty awesome stuff.

The cool part? My mom wanted to watch it just because of Taylor Swift. Yep, we're T.Swift freaks! Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez were pretty cool out there too.


                                             I see lots of gooey icing. :)

                                       

So yeah, that's basically how my evening went. I also baked banana bread but unfortunately, that didn't work out. Sorry to say, I was too busy this evening to write anything. Whoops!

 Chef Mani in the making.

P.S- I mastered "Forget You" by Cee Lo Green on piano. Yay!

Working It Out on Piano.

Hey everyone! I've been busy trying to learn some songs on the piano. It's a lot of fun, but it takes a lot of effort as well. Here are some of the songs:
-Hurt- Christina Aguileria.
-Grenade- Bruno Mars
-Forget You- Cee Lo Green
-Pray- Justin Bieber
-You Belong With Me- Taylor Swift.

So, this is what I have worked with so far! Actually, I haven't mastered any of these songs yet. They're quite rough. (As you know I'm a much better guitarist... piano isn't really my thing... unless you count learning them by ear.) My goal is to master them... and to play them my way, of course.

I'm still trying my best to post some videos but unfortunately blogger keeps telling me that there is an error EVERY SINGLE TIME I try.

That really sucks.

My inner pianist awaits.

Summer boredom... With Books, Guitars and Piano.

I really need to work my butt off for more songs. Really.

I'm having one of those "really, just really?" moments.

I NEED MORE SONG IDEAS.

Help me out pleaseeeeeeee?


Well, anyway, how's everyone's summer? Good? Oh well, that's... er... good. Me? Oh thanks for asking but my summer is alright. I guess it's more than alright. I read a bunch of books (and currently reading some too). Oh, and I learned a few songs on my guitars... and piano.
Fyi, I'm not the greatest pianist.

So, yeah. Let's start with books. (I recommend that you read them. They're awesome!!)
Speaking of awesome... I read:
-The Book of Awesome- Neil Pasricha
- The Lost Hero- Rick Riordan
-Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows- J.K Rowling <3
-Stormbreaker- Anthony Horowitz
-Pride and Prejudice-Jane Austen
-Emma- Jane Austen

Now, songs that I learned:

-Skyscraper- Demi Lovato. (Guitar and Piano)
-Edge of Glory- Lady Gaga (Piano)
-We'll Be A Dream- We the Kings feat. Demi Lovato (Guitar)
-Misery Business- Paramore (Guitar)
-Jar of Hearts- Christina Perri (Piano)
-The Voice Within- Christina Aguileria (Piano)
-Wouldn't Change a Thing- Demi Lovato and Joe Jonas (Guitar)
-Grenade- Bruno Mars (Guitar) Actually, I edited it. I kind of played it by notes rather than chords.


Well, I'm going to try to learn more.
