I'm not sure if you have heard of Beck or have listened to any of his music, but he's that guy that won the Grammy for best album of the year
Y'know, the guy that Kanye got mad at *shakes head, rolls eyes*
(he totally deserved to win, by the way. If you haven't listened to Morning Phase or any of his other stuff, it's amazing. Seriously.)
Beck released a single which is a sort of tease for another new album he's creating (he's on a roll!) by the name of Dreams

If the cover art isn't enticing enough, the song is much more modern. Beck seems to be moving away from the more mellow and relaxed sound of Sea Change and Morning Phase for his new album which, judging by this song, will be a lot more upbeat and easier to dance to at concerts.
Basically, I'm just hoping he'll tour again.

Last week, my family hit the road to visit 5 schools down south: Virginia Tech, UNC Chapel Hill, Duke, University of South Carolina, and Vanderbilt.
Along the way, we planned to camp for 4 nights, tour the Hermitage (Andrew Jackson's home) and the Biltmore (the Vanderbilt estate), as well as go on a white water rafting trip down the Ocoee River in Tennessee.
It rained, like, 90% of the time.
We camped for 2 nights instead of 4 and had to miss the white water rafting, but it's ok because we explored Nashville (a city we had never been to before), had time to see the Hermitage, and had time to tour the Biltmore's extensive gardens (all of which we would've missed if we had gone camping).
Here are a few pictures from the highlights of the trip:

Old Navy is killin' it. Seriously, they've been doing such a good job for the past year...
Their summer line has been flawless, though. The shorts are super affordable and super cute!

This 6 part miniseries fulfills both my love of history AND my love of quality television programming:
As lame as you may think this show looks, it's really good. At first it's a little slow, but I mean, come on, there wasn't that much to do in 1529.
The story picks up right when King Henry VIII decides he's done with Katherine of Aragon (his wife of 18 years), but has to find a way to get rid of her because in 1529, everyone was Catholic, and Divorce is kind of a no-no in that church.
Oh, the scandal!
It's super intricate, super well done, and super historically accurate.
