I try to live life with a sense of humor. Recently I haven't been doing so well. My tumblr is a mix of some of my favorite things like A Capella music, Jack's Mannequin, Rob Thomas, recent issues, and hopefully, things to make you laugh. Enjoy!

let me tell you a story. a story about a 14 year old girl named Mena. and band called Something Corporate. Mena had a not-so-wonderful couple of years when she was young and as a result she threw herself into music. The music that saves you when you’re not so sure you’ll survive. The music that saved her. A man - an Andrew McMahon, was saving her with every song he wrote and he didn’t even know it. SoCo became her salvation. And then tragedy struck. The man- the McMahon who had saved Mena so many times with his words was sick. Very sick. Mena cried for Andrew. Prayed for him. If she could survive, so could he. And boy did Andrew survive alright. Jack’s Mannequin was listening proof. The Glass Passenger spoke to Mena in ways no other music had. All she had to do was Swim. So she did. And in those moments of despair looked for light in the dark. And she found it.

On April 4th, 2009 Mena met her hero- Andrew McMahon. And as she told him her story, tears welled up in his eyes. “Can I hug you?”, Andrew asked. No need to ask! Mena thought. This man truly is a hero.

Mena has hugged Andrew several times now. And she will never get tired of his hugs or his smiles or his voice.

Because Andrew McMahon is my hero. And ten years later at 24, his music still saves me everyday.

Yeah, I’m alive

I don’t need a witness to know that I survived.

I’m not looking for forgiveness. Yeah I just need light…

I need light in the dark as I search for the resolution.

-Jack’s Mannequin

I had to reblog this. Because this is what it’s all about.

I got to meet him once. Briefly, but I asked him how he was and he simply answered “I can’t complain”. <3
