MOVIE TIME! Human Centipede...Grossly Disappointing...

(WARNING: If you have not seen this movie then I suggest you stop reading because I am holding nothing back regarding what happens in this movie. Therefore if you continue reading, you are hereby not allowed to blame me for ruining the ending for you. Neener Neener Neener)


The Cast: This movie really had no known people in it which on the one hand is sometimes disappointing because you want to see people you recognize, but at the same time I think having nobodies kind of saved this movie from being just entirely bad. Which it wasn't, but it wasn't that great either. More on that later. The never-heard-of-you-before stars of this movie are Dieter Laser, Ashley Williams, Ashlynn Yennie, and Akihior Kitamura. (There are also two other people in this movie but their parts are small and somewhat unimportant as they get killed off fairly quickly so…I'm just not going to mention them. Woops!). 


So I will give the biggest props I would say to Dieter Laser for being seriously creepy. I mean you can already tell from the title of the movie that it's creepy but Mr. Laser ups the creepy ante just being…himself. The girls are pretty forgettable but I will give them credit for expressing such emotion with their eyes and moans, considering for the better part of the movie they don't…or I should say can't speak. Kitamura I was not the biggest fan of so I don't really feel the need to mention him more than once.


The Plot: In case you didn't Google this movie immediately when you first heard about it or you can't guess from the title I'll help fill you in a little. The movie starts out like most European horror movies. Two pretty but probably not the smartest light bulbs in the bunch are on vacation in Germany and are going out to a night club. Or they at least attempt to. They drive around in the dark and get lost and then their tire blows and then, wait what's that? ITS RAINING? No way! After they sit around waiting for magical cell phone reception to appear, and after a seriously creepy German man drives by and says dirty things to them in German, they decide to brave the elements and venture out on foot in search of a phone and some help. Unfortunately for them they stumble upon the home of Dr. Heiter who at one time was praised for his fantastic surgical skills at separating conjoined twins. However somewhere down the road Dr. Heiter decided he enjoyed attaching people or other living things together instead of taking them apart. Which is where the name of the movie comes in. Dr. Heiter has the brilliant idea that he wants to attach humans together to create the first Human Centipede. And unfortunately for the traveling ladies, they are now a part of this disgusting plan. So is the Asian guy Dr. Heiter goes out and tranquilizes somewhere. 


The Real Deal: The idea of a Human Centipede is gross to just think about in general and then watching it happening is kind of an odd experience. You're fascinated, but horrified, but weirded out and yet intrigued at the same time. And I don't know about anyone else but the entire time I was just waiting for the point in the movie when the whole point of them being connected would happen. Because in order for the whole Human Centipede thing to work, Dr. Heiter attached his unlucky patients ass to face. Yes I'm serious. So after the initial surgery occurs what the audience is left to watch roam around is Kitamura at the front, followed by the two BFF's attached to the ass of the person in front of them. Which looks painful and awkward and embarrassing which is then just flat out horrifying when the front person east, and then has to go to the bathroom at a later point. I'll leave you with that image. 


I really wanted to like this movie from the second I heard about it. Being the huge horror movie buff that I am I was really looking forward to it. What I found was a kind of slow and boring movie, with really gross parts that were somewhat entertaining and then the initial excitement was kind of just a one trick pony. I wanted so much more out of this movie that I was left really disappointed. Some specific things that I was disappointed with: The fact that more than one language was being spoken throughout the movie. I don't mind subtitles at all. Except it gets annoying when I'm trying to watch a movie and it just gets confusing and too much to listen to/watch when theres Japanese, German, and English happening all in the same scene. Too much. The slow parts were really slow as well. Even the semi-painful parts, such as when Dr. Heiter makes his Human Centipede crawl and "fetch" the paper on the lawn. That was painful for a minute and then just awkward and weird. If you are the huge horror fan like me, then you might want to see this movie just to see it. If you're looking to be really entertained…you might want to skip. 

Human Centipede? Is it Gross I'm kind of Psyched...

So for those that are not big horror movie buffs or perhaps you just haven't caught wind of it yet, there is a majorly awesome movie that has hit limited theaters. This little gem (or what I hope is a gem) is called The Human Centipede.
Now I haven't actually seen this movie yet, so this blog will not be a review, but more of an introduction and my thoughts on what will be seen. Review will come soon because I MUST see this disgusting yet awesome looking movie.
So in case you can't tell from the title (which is one of my favorite things by the way; I love movies that tell you EXACTLY what you're in for. Other examples include Drag Me to Hell, The Breakup, etc.) the movie is about this German surgeon who at one time was highly praised for his great work until he went a little crazy and tried attaching multiples of subjects together. Fortunately for him, a couple of American tourist girls get lost in the woods (typical) and run to his house for safety and warmth. Unfortunately for the poor American girls, they then get trapped in this crazy German house of horrors where they are the new playthings for the creepy surgeon who wants to attach them and a fellow Asian man into one human centipede. 
From the preview, and some reviews I have read, this movie basically does every disgusting thing you can think of and you get to see it all. 
The actors in this movie are all basically unknowns according to IMDB.com. Unless you remember any extra Asian man from reality shows such as From G's to Gents, or New York goes to Hollywood or you are a regular watcher of German movies. If you are then you will get to see your favorite actors ripped apart and go nuts! Otherwise, for everyone else, you will be watching people whom you have never seen before, (and most likely wont be seeing in the sequel) get torn apart and tortured. Now who doesn't love that?
As an extra little surprise for you all who are as excited as I am, the writer/director Tom Six, has already said that he is in the process of writing and creating a sequel to this which includes, are you ready for this? A 24 PERSON HUMAN CENTIPEDE! Now since I haven't already seen the first centipede movie I can't vouch for how gross and creepy it actually is...but I can use my imagination to get an idea of the sequel. SO FREAKING EXCITED.
For those that are interested in seeing this movie in theaters the closest theater I found playing it (closest to Long Island that is) is the IFC theater located at 323 Avenue of the Americas in NYC. (Its a pretty awesome theater so if you want to go see this nastily amazing flick in theaters, which I suggest, then this is the theater to go to. Plus you kind of have no choice.)
Have a great weekend everyone!
If anyone has seen this movie already and would like to voice their opinions please do below!

Vegetarian Weekdays....Vege-WHAT?!

So its nothing new that vegetarian and vegan lifestyles are becoming more and more popular. I attempted becoming a vegetarian for about a month last summer. I accidentally watched one of those horrifying PETA videos where they show you how unbelievably cruel people are to the animals that we eat. I cried watching it, and I only watched maybe half it was so awful and sad. After watching the video it made me disgusted to eat meat at all because I felt so insanely bad for those poor animals. At the beginning it was pretty easy eating just vegetables all the time.  (The meatless hot-dogs were the biggest turn off though. I don't even know WHAT those things were. Yuck.) However veggie sammiches were quite delicious it turns out. I actually still eat them today even though I went back to eating meat. My long and boring point is that being a vegetarian and/or vegan are really not the hardest things to do. The only reason I stopped by the way is because I love meat. I live on chicken and cheeseburgers are my absolute favorite food in the whole world. I have a necklace with a hamburger to prove it. True story. 

What sparked this blog is that more and more I keep hearing about people saying how great being a vegetarian/vegan is. The health benefits and how great you feel and all that good stuff. Well it seems as though those people are being heard. According to a blog article on Glamour.com, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors has officially ordered that Mondays now become Meatless Mondays. They are encouraging restaurants, grocery stores, and even schools to offer vegetarian friendly options and food goers and buyers to not consume and/or buy meat on Mondays. Officials say that they are against the meat industry because of what the meat packing plants do to the environment, how they treat most animals in those plants, and also for health reasons. People who eat less read meat are less likely to have cardiovascular disease or high cholesterol. 

I think that Meatless Mondays are a fantastic idea. I often have this conversation with my parents, who are huge organic food nuts. At this point in time almost every item of food in my house right now is organic. And it's really difficult for my dad to find a lot of organic food. He often travels to Brooklyn to an organic butcher to stock up on meat for us. We always talk about how we should eat more like vegetarians because when you eat a lot of vegetable dishes, it's actually quite filling. Or using products such as tofu as a main dish makes it feel like you're eating an entire meal and more satisfied. 

I don't think I will be going back to my meatless ways anytime in the near future. However my love of vegetables does make me consider it every now and then. And despite the fact that I just ate a bowl from Chipotle with chicken in it, I totally could have eaten the entire thing minus the chicken. All the veggies and rice made it that tasty.

I'm Addic....I'm Addicted to you....

There are lots of things in this world that everyone is obsessed with. Losing weight. Celebrities. Justin Bieber. Something else I noticed that everyone is obsessed with lately is Addiction. 

There is a ridiculous amount of shows that center around the topic of Addiction. Mainly alcohol and drug addiction. There is Intervention on A&E. Addicted on TLC. I saw an ad for a show on addiction on CNN. What is with everyone's obsession with other people's addictions? I understand the curiosity because as someone who does not do drugs, sure I'm a little curious how they work and what happens when you take them. Clearly you get addicted. But when did this obsession to find more information come about?

Perhaps this is the only way people can experience what happens when taking these drugs without actually harming themselves. I have no idea. The only thing I do know is that everyone seems to really want to tune-in, and find out. 

It's kind of interesting that people are getting equally addicted to watching programs that revolve around other people's addictions. Maybe there should be shows on how much people are addicted to watching television. Would that even get the point across? Which brings me to another point (in case anyone is wondering about the direction of this blog...I'm not sure. It's going to be kind of a stream of consciousness kind of day. And you're going to like it).

The point, as far as I can see, of most of these addiction shows, is to show you how harmful the effects of drugs/drinking can be. Not only to the person doing them but also to the people around them and how substance abuse can basically destroy their life. Shouldn't that be some kind of warning to all the viewers? DO NOT DO DRUGS. YOU WILL BE SICK. YOU WILL DIE. YOU WILL HURT EVERYONE YOU LOVE. And yet, producers for these shows keep finding more and more people to be a part of the show. 

Not to mention they keep finding more people to be on Intervention. How is that? Do the drug users spend all their money on drugs so much so that they don't have a television and have never seen the show? How do they keep finding people to be on Intervention and not have any idea they're going to be intervened by everyone they know and love. Riddle me that.(I'm aware that most of these people are probably so drugged up they have no idea what is going on. But come on. Not one of them suspects something weird? Or has seen the show at all? Really?)

So back to my earlier point I was trying to make. Clearly watching all of these shows on how addicting drugs and alcohol are and how harmful they can be to every aspect of your life, is not really being very educational. It's possible the shows are being educational in the sense that you might say to yourself "Oh gross, I didn't know that doing meth can make your teeth rot so bad!" (I actually did learn this from watching an episode of True Life). But are people really saying to themselves "Oh wow look at that...I am never doing drugs!" or "Yikes, I don't want drinking to take over my life like that!". Probably not. I'm also pretty sure people are more likely to say "I will never do drugs" than the word 'Yikes'. Obviously these shows are not as educational as they could be, since there seems to be a never ending supply of people to be featured on them.
Clearly this obsession with people's terrible addictions is going to continue until we all find something better to be interested in. Or until Justin Bieber's voice changes. WHAT WILL WE DO THEN???

Movie Time! Hot Tub Time Machine...I kind of want one

(Warning: if you have not seen this movie then I suggest you stop reading because I am holding nothing back regarding what happens in this movie. Therefore if you continue reading, you are hereby not allowed to blame me for ruining the ending for you. Neener Neener Neener)

The Cast: So much like She's Out of My League, this cast was kind of weird. Weird in the sense that it had a bunch of people that you love in moves you've seen in the past, but it was weird to see them all together in this movie. Besides that fact it involves the amazing John Cusack, Clark Duke, Craig Robinson, and Rob Corddry.

I actually loved this cast. Yes it was a weird mix of people but individually they were all amazing. John Cusack is amazing for reasons I really shouldnt have to mention. The fact that he was wearing an outfit for almost the entire movie that was from...basically every 80s movie he was ever in kind of made my day. 

For those that do not watch the TV show Greek (and you should because its awesome) you may not recognize Clark Duke. For me hes one of those young actors who is slowly being noticed for how sarcastic and hilarious he is. His humor is subtle and dry and I love him a lot. He had some pretty hysterical key lines in this movie. He was also one of the background characters in Superbad. He's in the gazebo at the party with Becca. True story.

I feel like I shouldn't even have to talk about who Craig Robinson is. If you dont know who he is then that makes me very very nervous for you. He has some of the best lines in this movie as well. And one amazing scene that involves him in an 80s cover band singing Jessie's Girl to a crowd in a bar. Which if you took the 80s clothes away, would be any Friday or Saturday night in any bar anywhere today. Kind of hilarious...kind of pathetic. 

Another breakout actor that I think is also slowly being noticed for how hilarious he is is Rob Coddry. I've seen him in a few movies before but he was never this hilarious. And I actually loved him in the Breakup Kid, when he talks about how he was "Growing out the bangs" for his wife. Haha I love that. But he is the main character in this movie with the most action and most of the really hilarious (yes disgusting) lines and scenes. 

The Plot: In case the title didn't give it all away immediately, the movie is about a group of friends (technically 3 best friends and one nephew) who had the best time in the 80s and then their lives all changed and became really shitty. They decide to go back to a winter resort where they had the most amazing night ever and when they arrive they discover a hot tub that somehow transports them back to that very amazing night in 1986. They realize in order to get back (and make sure the nephew is still around in the present) they need to re-do everything exactly how it was done. Except of course, nothing really goes to plan and hilarity ensues involving sex, drugs, some rock and roll, and lots and lots of 80s movies references. Not even references really, more like re-creations.

The Real Deal: I'm realizing its hard to describe what a movie is actually about and still sound like it was good. My description above sounds bland and boring but the movie itself was really hilarious. I was not expecting it to be so funny. To be honest, there were so many hilarious lines, some I feel were un-noticed by the audience because they were still laughing from a previous joke, that it was hard to remember some specifically. But if you are looking for a funny yet gross, blast from the 80s past kind of movie with a funny yet heartwarming ending, then this movie is for you. 

Movies to see before this one so you get most of the references: (and also because they are so inconically amazing) Pretty in Pink, Sixteen Candles, Say Anything

Longing for the (Busy) Fun to begin...

Welcome to another blog that is most likely going to have the theme of Wah Wah Wah, Why Not Me? Life's Not Fair!
Deal with it.
Just like millions of other people all over the world, I am very attached to my precious social media websites. In fact, being connected to social media is one of my favorite things in life. I really just love being connected to millions of people everywhere, even if I don't personally know them. I just find it fascinating and cool. Along with finding social media outlets fascinating, I am also envious of many people that are on these social media sites. For today I'm mainly going to focus on the popular people: The celebrities (and I don't just mean actual A-list celebs).
First I will talk about the seriously popular people such as singers, actors and actresses. All of these people know how important it is to keep up with their fan base so they stay popular which is why all of these social media sites such as Twitter, Foursquare, Facebook, etc., are so popular. Not just because people want to copy the celebs and join just because its the cool thing to do. But because its some of the easiest ways to connect with fans and keep them interested. Of course everyone wants to know what Lindsay Lohan had for breakfast this morning. In fact I love her more for that very reason. (Not really but I assume you get my point).
But Hollywood celebs are not the only people using these websites to stay in touch with their fan base. That's because they're not the only ones out there with a fan base. I'm talking about YouTube stars.
I am currently subscribed to almost 100 "famous" YouTube celebs and all of them have a fan base of over 100,000 people. AT LEAST. That is just so crazy to me (in a I'm-totally-fascinated-this-is-so-cool kind of way). But because they are so watched and loved, they too have Twitter, Facebook, and many other social media accounts so that they can stay up to date with their fans and let them know where they're going, what they're doing, and when the new videos are posted. And of course us, as their fans, LOVE IT!
But today's blog is not a lesson on how to have a fan base when you're famous. Because obviously...I am the farthest thing from fame. However one thing I will say about these famous peoples' networks is that I am jealous.
I am not just jealous of their fame, although it would be really awesome to be in some kind of lime-light, but I am jealous of how fame has made their lives busy and fulfilling (at least from the outside looking in).
You can tell by how often people post, the content of their posts, and of course following their careers, how busy and popular they are. Keeping tabs on peoples lives makes me realize how much I wish my life was busy and fulfilled with activities and projects that I really cared about and was passionate about.
I was reminiscing with my friend Ellie today about how I can only compare that same kind of busy, happy lifestyle to that of when we were in college. I know you all remember those days. I loved college because of many reasons (the obvious being it was fun, I drank a lot with my friends, and had a blast) but a large part of it was that I had a constant schedule keeping me busy.
I didn't really have a ton of time on my hands to be hanging around doing nothing. I was always going to classes, or meeting up with friends, or planning Rush parties, or doing projects. It was busy, sometimes tiring, but ultimately it was fun. I really miss those days.
Now my days are spent waking up early, getting ready for work, driving to work, sitting in an office doing work, driving home, eating dinner, and crashing on the couch. Its lame, not fulfilling, and I don't feel happy about the work I do or the schedule I have. I get excited for the weekends when I have a lot of plans with my friends and I don't sleep and I'm constantly on the move. I love that.
The people I follow on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, etc., they are always posting things saying "Filming my video today!", or "Having a photo-shoot this morning!". It's things like that, that make me jealous. Not specifically for those types of daily activities, but because they're clearly excited for the days activity or project. I want to be excited for what my day will entail. I want to be able to post things to the world on Twitter and have them actually be interesting things to say. Not that I just ate egg salad on a bagel. (Although it was delicious).
I'm not saying that I wish for fame, even though of course that would be really fun. I just wish that I could figure out how to get out of this bubble I'm stuck in and get even a tiny taste of a busy but fun lifestyle.
::Sigh:: Maybe one day.

To eat healthy, or not eat healthy....

OK readers, don't get too frazzled or weirded out by the headline. Because lets be honest, for those of you that know me, knows that I love food more than life and more specifically I wish I could eat junk food everyday and stay healthy as an Ox and never get fat. Too bad dreams aren't reality :)
Any-who, what I really want to talk about today is based on an article I read that talks about a combination of my two favorite things: Food and the Movies!
The article discusses how the chairman of Sony Pictures is trying to enforce healthier food options in movie theaters. I give the guy a lot of credit because we live in the fattest country ever and the movies have become one of the few places where its socially acceptable to just shove piles of food into your mouth all at once. And no one cares. I kind of love that fact. Especially because its dark and everyone has the movie to be pre-occupied with so no one is really looking around watching people shove mass amounts of junk food into their mouths like human garbage disposals. (And if you are watching...seriously? stop being creepy).
So the article discusses how it would be great if there could be healthier options such as veggie sticks with low-fat dressing to dip in. Or fruit options. The Sony chairman seems to think that if there are healthier options available, that people would be likely to pick them. However I'm not so sure I agree.
It's true that although we are the fattest country, we also seem to be really gung-ho about staying in shape. There are so many get-healthy and fit gimmicks out there that its weird how people are still so heavy.
For now though, its definitely going to be a while before anyone sees anything resembling vegetables pr fruit in their local movie theater establishments. One step that movie theaters are taking, being enforced by the Sony chairman, is the calorie counts of all snack foods being visible on the menu boards, in the hopes that people realize how fattening the food is and hopefully pick the healthier options.
I don't know about anyone else, but seeing those calorie counts on stuff in restaurants only shocks me for like a minute...and then I still get whatever food I was going to get anyway. Woops. One thing that did gross me out though was the little factoid (which can be found in the article) that states how a large buttered popcorn has the calorie equivalent of 6 Mcdonalds hamburgers. EW. How nasty is that! I'm shuddering a little.
So there you have it folks. The future of movie snacks is on the way! If you want to read the full article you can click right here and read it for yourselves.
Now I don't want everyone to get too nervous. I seriously doubt that anything remotely healthy will be in local theaters any time soon. Like the article mentions, popcorn, soda and the movies have been a threesome for a ridiculously long time. And like I mentioned before, we are the fattest country around. Those two factors combined means that everyone can continue shoving their beloved popcorn in mass amounts into their faces in peace. Enjoy!

Movie Time! She's Out of My League...kind of

So another part of my new whole "new ventures" attitude is writing and talking about something I love very much: MOVIES. And when I say I love movies, what I really mean is I am highly obsessed with them. I love everything about them. The stories, the plots, the characters, the feelings, the emotions, the bloopers, EVERYTHING. Therefore I am going to try to start critiquing the movies that I see. Starting with yesterdays feature: She's Out of My League.

(Warning: if you have not seen this movie then I suggest you stop reading because I am holding nothing back regarding what happens in this movie. Therefore if you continue reading, you are hereby not allowed to blame me for ruining the ending for you. Neener Neener Neener)

The Cast: I'm not going to lie, this was a weird cast, except it all seemed to work really well together. Every character was quirky in their own way, with really great lines and some were noobs that were very enjoyable to watch. So we had (and I'm really only going to mention the big ones here. You can IMDB the rest yourself): Jay Baruchel, Alice Eve, T.J. Miller, Lindsay Sloane, Krysten Ritter.

Ok I just want to say that as if I didn't already love Jay Baruchel from his few but hilarious lines in Knocked Up, he was even funnier and more adorable in this movie. I'm not saying hysterical (although the man snorting up a hysterics storm in front of me thought so) but very cute and very very funny. Alice Eve, whom I have never seen before this movie was very pretty and very sweet. Kind of a shame though that that's all she really got to do in this movie. Be really pretty, and really sweet, and that's about it. Not even Lindsay Sloane had that many funny lines, although it was very enjoyable to watch her be anything except the annoying and pathetic best friend from Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Yup in case anyone forgot about her (and I wouldn't blame you if you did) Lindsay used to play the ever annoying, and seriously pathetic Valerie on those awesome TGIF night lineups.

Ok now the battle for funniest character is sort of a tie. I would include Nate Torrence in this except that his character really wasn't that important. However he does deserve an honorable mention for his greatly placed Disney references. And I'm not just saying that because I love everything about Disney. Those lines were just too funny.

Ok so back to the Battle Royale for funniest character. This is a fight between T.J. Miller and Krysten Ritter. I have never seen T.J. before in anything, but I have seen Krysten. She has never been this funny. And I don't know what the hell T.J. was doing before this because he was HYSTERICAL. I really love when lines in movies are still funny even though they were in the previews. Watching these two characters meet for the first time and instantly hate each other was great, and made even better when T.J. delivers, one of the best lines in the movie I think, "Who brought the Good New Bear? Someone get her some FUCKING honey". Loves it.

The Plot: So if you didnt already know what this movie was about...I am assuming you do not watch TV, see movies, or live in life. Basically the skinny nerdy guy with no life ambition (kind of interesting considering the skinny nerd is usually really smart and has a plan. Apparently not Jay Baruchel's character) meets Molly, who is the woman of his dreams. Blah, Blah Blah, they meet, they hit it off, she keeps asking him out, they start to date. Enter loser best friends (except for the one hot loser who has almost no lines...sad) who basically tell Jay's character what to do in every single situation, and since he looks like a 12 year old, and has the balls of a 12 year old, he listens to them. After one too many breakup-makeups (minus the sex) adorable yet dorky Kirk (Jay's character) realizes that he IS good enough for hot Molly and they end up together! Yay!

The Real Deal: So I realize towards the end of the last section that it would appear that I didn't really like this movie. That is not true. There are a LOT of really funny yet subtle scenes that I will not share with you. Partially because I want you to go see it for yourself and partially because I cant remember every single one well enough to relay it back. But overall I would say this movie is cute, has some nice eye candy (guys and girls), and some really hilarious witty lines that will definitely leave you laughing and wanting more. And if nothing else, you will get some gross-out entertainment reminiscent of the American Pie movies involving "shooting off" too early, meeting the parents, and a large dog. All I'm going to say.

New Ventures

So Lately I've been reading a book that was recommended to me by a friend from work entitled "What Should I Do With My Life?"...kind of appropriate right?
The book is by author Po Bronson and is basically about how Po went all over the country speaking with people about how they discovered what to do with their lives, and he helps to retell their stories. Some of the stories are really touching and somewhat relate-able, others are hard to connect with because they seem so far from where I am right now.
However the more stories I read, the more inspired I become. One of the most important themes that I'm finding within all the stories, is to play to your strengths and do what you are good at slash what makes you happy. And I know about doing what makes you happy, not completely from experience, but from writing so much about it on here :)
Therefore, lately I've really been trying, slowly but surely, to play to my strengths in life, and try to do what makes me happy.
One of those things that makes me really happy is YouTube. I know, I know, my dream of YouTube stardom was kind of far-fetched last summer. And I agree that it was kind of silly for me to think that I would gain popularity for just recording my life. Not so much. However now that I have my pretty new MacBook Pro (!!!), I am starting the (slow) process of trying to make actual videos for my channel. And I am REALLY excited. Ideas keep coming to me for videos and spoofs I want to make. I am totally loving it. Not to mention it would feel amazing to actually complete a project which I haven't done in the longest time. I want to feel good and happy again about what I'm doing not just WITH my life but IN my life.
So this blog really was not to promote myself on YouTube (at least not yet). The point was to say that from now on I will be venturing out and concentrating on doing things that, although others may not find enjoyable, I do. And when it comes down to it, you really just need to do what makes you happy. Thanks Internet :)

So much for THAT.....

Whats up blog readers? (if there are any....) So remember in my last post how I talked about doing something new every week or so and then I would blog about it in the hopes of trying to shape my very empty future?
Yea as you can tell by my recent posts (0) that that didn't exactly happen. Sometimes I wish I could be more proactive instead of just being a lot of talk and not so much action. It's pretty crappy of me. Sorry :(
In an attempt to make it up to the very few of you that are actually reading this, I thought I would just....write another blog...WHO'S EXCITED?!?!
Today's blog is about one of MY favorite bloggers: The one and only Perez Hilton.
I, along with millions of other people, visit Perez's fantabulous website everyday (multiple times a day to be exact) to read all the funny gossip he has on celebrities. There is however one thing that reaaaaaaally bugs the crap out of me and its something that occurs WAY too often on Perez's lovely website: SPELLING AND GRAMMAR MISTAKES.
What.the.Eff.Perez.
Since Perez has become kind of a household name and his website gets millions of hits per day (and because on his website the words "we" and "us" and "the Perez family" are written often) I am under the assumption that since he has become famous, there have been more people added to help contribute to the Perez Hilton website. That being said...who the hell is running things over there? Do those people not read? Because frankly I am embarrassed for them when there are constant spelling and grammar mistakes!
I understand that their goal is probably to get the most gossip they can up and running on their website as fast as they can so people who constantly keep coming back to the site have something new to read. That is totally fine. But if you are going to be doing this all day everyday, and you KNOW that people all over the world are going to be reading it, then wouldn't you want to make sure that you are putting the best product you can out there?
Not to mention the fact that most of the posts that go up there are really short. Why is no one editing the content over there? DRIVES ME CRAZY!!
Because this is a really big issue for me, I have decided, starting this past Monday, that everyday, at least once a day,when I find a spelling/grammar mistake, I email it back to Perez and notify him of these stupid mistakes. I'm hoping that someone over there is reading all of my obnoxious and annoying emails and maybe, just maybe, they can be corrected.
This is my new little side project, so we shall see how it goes!
Does spelling and grammar mistakes bother anyone else? Are there blogs that you read that you wish were run better? Let me know!
For now I'm just going to bother Perez about his :) See ya next time my few and fearless readers!

What to do, what to do....

Good morning everyone! For those of you dealing with this "fabulous" snow, how is everyone dealing? I don't know about anyone else but I got stuck in my driveway and then finally pulled out, only to have my car slide over a giant chunk of frozen snow and get stuck again. Awesome. I did however make it on time to work! Woo...

Anywho, so I thought I would attempt to keep going with something I started which is a minor problem I often have. Ergo, here is another fantastically captivating blog for everyone to read!

So as usual, I keep having nervous doubts about my bleak looking future. I've complained before (I think?) about the lack of a future I have. And it doesn't get easier everyday. There is so much pressure, constantly, on having a path in life. Why does everyone need a direct path? Why can't we all just live our lives and whatever happens, happens? I mean, sure its not the most fool-proof plan, but at least its living. I would rather live my life and have no direction, than feel stuck and dead in a life that has a specific path. Did that make sense?

I dont really know that path I'm supposed to be on. I never knew. I do know that there's about a million different things I enjoy doing and hey, why not try them all. I think from now on I will try to do a new thing each week, see how long I last at attempting it, and perhaps it will turn into a career. At the same time I will try to continue on reporting things that I find interesting. Sound good to everyone? And by everyone I mean the 3 people who probably read this. Well get ready for fun viewers! Here's to hoping I find part of my future! Yayy.

Peace out.
