Fireflies die in a Mad World

Current mood: Bummed

Hello everyone,
Sorry there has been no blog for a couple of days. I have been very sickly and even had a trip to the ER. I'll be okay though, I'm not dying, so I'll be fine eventually.
Since I haven't posted I'm going to post two songs and as much news as possible. Enjoy!
Sarai

Song Number ONE: Fireflies by Owl City



Song Number TWO: Adam Lambert's cover of "Mad World" by Tears for Fears
