Songs that can get ya thinking!

I was at work today (as I am most days of the week being the stellar employee I am *cough*) and that old song 'Fearless' by Taylor Swift came on.
Strangely enough it got me thinking about this saying I once read somewhere:-

"A girl has 4 different personalities- for when she's by herself, with her family, with her friends, and with him".

I can't for the life of me think of where I heard it and I couldn't find it on the net so it probably isn't the actual saying but it's close enough for my point. I thought about how true this was.
Before you call me crazy or think I have too much time on my hands (which as a matter of fact I do at this moment), think about it again.
I'm not sure if it's the same for guys but for us girls, I think it rings true.
You might be the kind of person who sits and reads quietly when your by yourself or (like me) sings karaoke at the top of your voice in your room but I find that this side of me disappears when I'm with my family (probably the embarrassment of them commenting on my not-so-brilliant singing) or my friends.
My family get to see the happy, optimistic side of me while my friends might occasionally witness my wild side at parties. I haven't quite found 'the one' yet but chances are I'll probably be completely different with him if the trend holds up!
It's a weird thought and even stranger that I got the inspiration for this from a song by Taylor Swift.
So bottom line- listen to Swift's songs. Even though they're mostly about break-ups and revenge and teenage drama, some of them have real messages behind them (and no, I can't think of a single example right now...but that doesn't mean I'm not right *shifty eyes* lol)
Even if you get nothing out of the experience, I can guarantee that some of her songs (maybe even the ones you hate the most) will get stuck in your head. She's pretty good with catchy tunes!
So...a post that was meant to be about the strange thought I had during work has turned into a review of Taylor Swift's songs...and yes. I am aware that I fail at writing reviews.
Before I make an even bigger fool of myself by attempting to display talents I don't possess, I'll end this post until inspiration (and boredom) strikes again!
Blog you later! (Still not a popular catchphrase? Wait for it...it'll catch on!)

To blog or not to blog?

As a first-time blogger, I (like so many others before me) have started off with possibly one of the most cliched lines of all time. I think the reason so many people quote Shakespeare (or a modified version of it) is to sound smart and well-read.
I'm going to be honest- I actually have read Shakespeare but only because I was forced to in English class all through high school!
I personally think William Shakespeare was a very depressed person, who immersed himself in plays where the main protagonist almost always dies, to escape from his sad life. How's that for controversy?
I don't know- maybe I just don't get it because all his books are written in Old English and require too much translation for me to bother deciphering.
As for this blog; it's simply a way for me to rant and rave and reflect about nothing and everything...in other words-completely random!
So for my first blog post, I'll talk about this quote I found:-
I cannot give you the formula for success, but I can give you the formula for failure-which is: Try to please everybody.

Herbert Swope was a US journalist and this quote reflects my thoughts about this blog perfectly (and about life really!)
I'm just writing about things that happen in my week and things I find fascinating or interesting.
I don't mean to offend people or challenge their view but basically, I'm not writing to try and please others. It's just a way for me to relax.
You either like it or you don't but please comment either way. It would be great if I actually got any views on this :-)
Well, that's all for today. Blog you later (lame I know but wouldn't it be awesome if people actually starting using it as a catchphrase? You never know, might start a trend ;)
