There was once upon a time when American Idol was actually authentic and made sense and I loved it, during that time I came across Carrie Underwood in season 4 and I loved her from that point onward, all through the show and all through her career afterward. She has such a pure and powerful voice and listening to this song yesterday I was reminded again of just how much in love I am with this woman! she is epicly cool!

I am on a long holiday from school and kids, due to Eid (yes, we have two in a year!) and so I’ve had some time to reconnect with my books and my shows and my music, so I suppose it is a good thing I’m watching The Voice season 5 then, ya? I’m enjoying this week a lot and it would almost be a shame to go back to that routine life, but I can’t complain as I have really grown to love the little Rugrats that are my students and I would love to see their faces again! (I bet I regret this line two periods in to school on Monday! :p ) But till then, I still have 3 days to enjoy and that is exactly what I plan to do. So while I am indulging myself in Carrie Underwood (this song literally gives me goosebumps), why don’t you do the same… and have a good day wherever you are! 😀 ❤

Artist: Daughtry

Song: Over you

Album: Daughtry (2006)

I was stuck at a boring wedding today which I went to coz it was my moms work (she’s a photographer), so I was passing my time like I always do at a wedding at which I don’t know anyone: I was sitting alone at a table brooding and listening to my iPod and instead of just shuffling through songs in frustration, I actually started listening to songs I had been flipping for a long time and that is how after a long time today I enjoyed Daughtry.

Now Daughtry is from the days when my American Idol obsession was in full swing, and he was one of my favorites; I had downloaded his album as soon as it was out and has played it endlessly, but for a long I had chosen to pass over his songs (Apologies), took me a boring wedding but I finally realized again the awesomeness that is Mr. Chris Daughtry.
