BEYONCE ALBUM REVIEW

Okay, so here we go. I haven't anything blogging related in a while, so I thought I would get back into it. Hopefully somebody likes this. I was thinking about doing videos, but I know I'm super self conscious and don't have an adequate place to film in my apartment. BUT, that's not what I'm here to talk about.

BEYONCE. Beyonce, girl, why did you do this to me? Let me tell you, I stan for the baddest bitch on this planet, who snatched wigs and edges and made everybody #BOWDOWN. She let these young women "Work", "Wreck Balls", "Applaud" and "Roar", but NO ONE snatched like King Bey did. When I first heard of this phenomenon that is the secret Beyonce album, I was sitting in the very room I am writing this on and was just surfing the net, when my roomie Kira, came in and said Beyonce had an album out. Now, of course, like most Beyonce fans, I wasn't believing that because people had been saying that Beyonce was going to have an album out months ago, so I figured if Beyonce was going to put an album out, it would've been sometime next year. BUT BITCH, when I looked on Itunes, clear as day, there she was in all of her glory, BEYONCE the visual album, for $15.99. Needless to say, I had a mini-freak out and bought it right on the spot and haven't been listening to anything else since. 

Beyonce's new album, to me, sounds like the music she always wanted to make. She has stepped into her "Grown Woman" shoes and is saying "I'm here damnit, and this is what I'm gonna sing about. Like to hear it? Here it go." The album itself could be split into a double disc production, like I Am...Sasha Fierce, but include one half for the inspirational ballads and the other half for music you play in the bedroom. *hint, hint*

However, I'm going to go through this album, because I think it is amazing and give you the breakdown of each song and the videos. 

1. PRETTY HURTS. So Beyonce's 5th studio album starts when a inspirational ballad entitled "Pretty Hurts". Within the lyrics of the song, Beyonce sings about how a woman's looks is more important than what she has to say or what she wants in life. I like how the song opens with a beauty pageant judge asking her what she wants in life, and her response is simply, "to be happy". I think this song correlates to the look-ist society we always are living -- always striving to be the best looking, when beauty is a privilege that is fleeting. Beyonce's vocals are amazing on the song, especially towards the end of the song, but what sold me on this track was the video. The music video for "Pretty Hurts" is set in the beauty pageant world, with Beyonce participating and being subsequently broken down to win the pageant (which she doesn't). In the video we see Beyonce working out in a tight corset and weighing herself, going in for plastic reconstruction, fighting with other pageant girls, throwing up the toilet, and just being completely unhappy. I loved the message in the video and song and its slowly becoming one of my favorites. 4/5

2. HAUNTED. Now, I've heard many conflicting things about this song in particular, but I love it. It is so different than anything I've heard Beyonce sing about, and the fact that its 2 songs in one makes it one of my favorites on the album. The song starts with "Ghost", where Beyonce channels spoken word to convey her message. The video for this song in particular is my absolute favorite for the video portion of the album; its so artistic, but simple and I couldn't ask for anything else. The song leads into "Haunted", with the heavy bass and (in my opinion) Afrocentric beat. This starts the middle portion of the album that could've been saved for the bedroom; and I can't help but groove when this comes on. The video channels Madonna in the back-back days, with Beyonce in some sort of haunted house, in her version of a tux walking through the halls to see some very odd things in the rooms. With Beyonce singing on the screens, who wouldn't say this isn't a banging ass video? 5/5

3. DRUNK IN LOVE (FT. JAY-Z). Another one of my favorites, definitely meant for someone special. I do think is adorable how 10 years ago it was "Crazy in Love" and now its "Drunk in Love". With a feature from husband Jay-Z, I could quickly see this as a #1, at the very least on the urban charts. To be honest, when I heard this preview on Itunes, this is the song that made me want the album. The video, classic black and white, with Beyonce looking fine as hell in a bathing suit on the beach (I told Kira that if I have a baby, I want to look like her when its said and done). I love the beat on the song, the synths, and Beyonce rapping is EVERYTHANG! Her Texan twang comes out in full effect, and a little rap verse from Jay-Z to tie it all together. 5/5

4. BLOW. Beyonce's ode to oral sex is subtle but blatant in this little diddle. The song channels a late '70s, early '80s sound to it, with a nice little change up in the middle of the song to something that sounds Rick James inspired. "Blow" reminds me a bit of "Lay Up Under Me", that Beyonce recorded for her 4 album in 2011. The video is full of color and cameo from the best sister in the world, Solange Knowles (my hairspiration). Set at the skating rink, the colors and neon lights easily makes this another one of my favorite videos. The video actually made me like the song a whole lot more than I did upon first listen. Beyonce dancing in roller skates sold it for me. 

5. NO ANGEL. To be honest, this was not one of my favorites when I first heard it. However, one particular part in the song made it another one I can't live without. "Tell me if you wanna riiiiiiiiiddddddeeeeeeee." (YAS BEY!!!) Its a very mellow song, that people have said reminds them of something Prince could've done, but to me it channels Mariah Carey in her Butterfly days and late 90s R&B. The video, I could live without. Nice that's its a ode to Houston, but I could watch it once and not wanna look again. The cameos from Houston natives were a nice add (Paul Wall where you been?), but its not a video I particularly like. 3/5

6. PARTITION. LISTEN!!!!!! If there is one song on this ENTIRE album that I would say is my favorite, damn it this would be the one! Like "Haunted", this is a song that incorporates 2 songs into one. The song starts out with "Yonce", with Bey rapping and letting you know your man wants her and your woman wants to be her. The beat and the horns in the background make it an instant jam session. The video featuring some of the best Black models in the business, just makes it that much better. The song leads into "Partition", with its heavy bass, while Beyonce croons about getting it on in the back of the limo. When mama said, "I don't need you seein' Yonce on her knees", I was dead on the floor. That proved to me that Beyonce said "fuck it" and shed that cookie cutter image she's been upholding for a while now and decided to show off her sexuality. The video, with its colors and Beyonce, once again, looking sexy as all get out makes this another one of my favorites. Once I saw Beyonce on the pole, I died and needed to be revived again. (Why did you do this to me Bey? I know that video had many questioning their sexuality.) Definitely a fan favorite, and I do think this should be one she releases to the public, but who knows? I hope she does, though. 5/5

7. JEALOUS. I won't lie, not one of my favorites on the album, but still a good song nonetheless. Here the B sings of being "Jealous" of her partner, a-la "If I Were A Boy", 2.0. The video is also one I could live without. However, when she through the food off the table was everything for me. (BTW, the people on the street. Were they actors, or were they genuinely surprised Bey was on the street? I need answers.) 3/5

8. ROCKET. I can feel the sweat building in here. Reminding me of D'Angelo's "Untitled (How Does It Feel)", another one of my favorites. Classic R&B song, and an updated Speechless...Speechless 5.0, if we will. Another black and white video, all slow motion with Beyonce in lingerie, in the bed, and in the shower. *Starts to sweat* Bey, girl, you took me out. However, the video ends halfway into the song, and the last parts of the song are where Beyonce sings to "punish" her. Beyonce, listen. I was NOT ready for that. 5/5

9. MINE (FT. DRAKE). This song is conflicting for me. I like the very beginning with Beyonce singing and just the piano playing, but then it turns into a Drake song featuring Beyonce, and I don't know how to feel about it. Not saying that it isn't a good song, but I could do without Drake on the song (and that could be just because I'm not a Drake fan). But the video is great, and extremely artistic. What was up with the people kissing with t-shirts on their face, though? 3/5

10. XO. A great cross over song that really has to grow on me. It sounds very Katy Perry-esque, but that also doesn't mean it absolutely terrible. The very is super cute, with Beyonce and friends at Cony Island partying with fans. All the colors and Bey just enjoying herself make the video fun and light. 3/5

11. ***FLAWLESS. TRAP MUSIC!! (Kidding.) However, another one of the albums uptempo and urban inspired songs. The song starts with "Bow Down", which Beyonce took a lot of heat for earlier this year. The middle of the song is accompanied with a snippet of a speech by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie entitled "Why We Should All Be Feminists", which made its rounds on tumblr months ago and caught my attention. The last 2 minutes of the song end with ***Flawless, and is sure to an anthem for all women next year. I can imagine Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook full of "I woke up like this...flawless #nofilter". The video is another black and white, with Bey and others at a big ass moshing event. Whatever the case, the dancing was fun to watch, and Hood Bey is always wanted and needed. 5/5

12. SUPERPOWER (FT. FRANK OCEAN). I may be in the minority, but I'm glad Frank Ocean wasn't super present on this song. I'm just not a big fan of his music; it all just seems like something you listen to when you're going on a bad trip. However, I do like the song and it reminds me of the Etta James era in song style. In the accompanying video, Beyonce and her masked main man, are leaders of a revolt. Lots of slow motion walking and vandalism, which special appearances from Pharrell and fellow Destiny's Child band members, Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams. 4/5

13. HEAVEN. A great ballad with the simple production and amazing vocals. This song, in particular, always makes me tear up at the end because it songs like she's crying when she sings, "So go on/Go home". The video is centered around Beyonce and her lovely dancer, Ashely Everett, doing lots of best-friend things together like going to weddings and driving with the top down. Scenes also include Ashley doing an interpretive dance and Beyonce at a cemetery and inside of a church. 4/5

14. BLUE (FT. BLUE IVY). Last song of the album is Beyonce's little ode to her little girl, Blue Ivy Carter. The song is based around Beyonce being fulfilled when she sees her little girl, and ini general the joys of parenthood. The video is based in Brazil (I believe) showing off the culture and the beautiful people. The last few seconds of the song include the super adorable Blue Ivy singing "Hold on to me", and laughing, while a amused Beyonce laughs in the background. (I didn't know Blue Ivy knew how to talk...Jeez, it seems like she was just born.) And of course, the video shows us fully, Blue Ivy in all her glory. 

OVERALL VERDICT: 5/5

All in all, I love the album and haven't been listening to anything since midnight Friday, December 13, 2013. As far as I know, the album has sold over 800,000 copies and of course will be the #1 album on Billboard for weeks to come. I'm hoping my the end of the week it sells over 1.2 million, which is the record set for Taylor Swift. I WANT BEY TO BREAK THE RECORD! I feel like those who have Androids and those who don't want to buy the album on Itunes will be buying it when it comes in hard copy (whenever that happens). Bey has already broken the Itunes record, and the critics reviews are saying this is one of her best albums yet. Dropping the album out of the blue like that was definitely brilliant on her part, and focuses more on the full album, instead of the steroid filled "singles" industry we've currently been experiencing. 

It's a great album and I encourage you to at least listen to it. #KINGBEY

Twilight Review

Well thanks everyone for giving their opinions on what I should write about this week. It's way overdue, I know, just so much as been going on this week (and quite frankly I've been too lazy, and having writers block).

Now, here's the thing. I've read most of the Twilight series, and in the 9th/10th grade, was excited that they were going to make a movie of the books. Looking back on it now, as an almost 20-year-old, I realize that Twilight is not something that should equate to an epic romance. Just to get my mini rant out of the way about the movies -- they suck. I don't like the actors, I don't like the screenplay, I don't like the direction the movies took at all. Seeing as though the screenwriter(s) and director(s) didn't have much to go off of in the first place, its a miracle that the movies could even be made.

I will say this...the books (or what I did read) were better than than the movies; most of the time they always are. My main problem with Twilight lies in the 3 main characters: Bella, Edward, and Jacob. And whilst doing this rant, I had to look up the synopsis of some of the books, because I could not remember what the hell happened in them. (That should show you right there how awesome they are at keeping your attention) So here we go:

Simply put, Twilight is about having a boyfriend. That's it. Throughout the entire series, Bella has this obession with Edward, and vice versa. Its almost extremely creepy to have these two, seemingly 'opposites attract' characters being completely obsessed with each other. More often than not, I really don't see what draws Bella and Edward together. What do they have in common? In my opinion, if I'm with a guy and all he wants to do is look at me all the fucking time and we can't go out anywhere, what kind of relationship is that? All that draws Bella and Edward together is the shit Bella seems to get into after fooling around with Edward. Attack after attack happens when Bella is with Edward, and it seems like he makes her life a lot more complicated than it has to be. Also, there's no character development. None of these characters are relatable in any way, shape, or form to anyone reading the book. One is a obessive fangirl (Bella), one is a manipulative control freak (Edward), and one is a love-sick idiot (Jacob). The way that Meyer describes vampires and werewolves (wouldn't Jacob be a shapeshifter?) is confusing, and its all a clusterfuck of all the things to not do in a relationship.

The only thing more annoying than having to read about this stupid ass relationship is, if you dig deep enough, what it teaches people about relationships. As I mentioned before, Bella is obsessed with Edward. In the second book, when Edward leaves out of the clear blue fucking sky, any normal girl would be like, This sucks. Let me sad about it for a bit and move on with my life. But no, not Bella. She sits in a depressed state for months at a time worried about Edward, who just left her OUT OF THE CLEAR BLUE FUCKING SKY. What more does she need to understand that this is not a healthy relationship for her to be in? Including that fact that he is a vampire, he treats her like dirt too?

I also feel like Edward is a manipulative control freak. Everything has to be his way, or no way, and I hate how Bella always folds to what he wants. Can't she ever get a voice of her own? Stephanie Meyer says the book is about choices, and I would have to disagree with her. How is the book about choices when the only choice Bella ever makes in the novel are one's that are influenced by Edward's feelings about them? She can't ever make a decision on her own life without seeing how Edward will feel or fit into her plans.

And sorry to say, as the series goes on, the writing gets worse. I could barely make it through New Moon and quit Breaking Dawn half way through. At some point, I got tired of reading of how much these two fucking love each other.

The only person I feel sorry for is Jacob. He is the classic example of friendzoned, or in newer terms, and emotional fluffer. Once Edward leaves (once again out of the clear blue fucking sky), Bella turns to Jacob, who always liked her. She confines in Jacob (and does all this stupid shit to see 'visions' of Edward while with Jacob) and he becomes something like a boyfriend, something like a best friend. Now, once Edward comes back into the picture, Bella basically says, Yeah, Jake...about that relationship that we might have had...its over now that Edward's back. FRIENDZONED

I could see how the Twilight series could appeal to people, because of the romance factor..striving for the 'romance novel-movie perfect' relationship that doesn't exist. Also the movies are popular because the cast is semi-attractive people. But, let's come back down to Earth...please. Twilight is not a book that will be remembered forever, like the novels they make us read in high school. I would just die if any book from the Twilight series is a required reading book for any classroom.

On Facebook, let me know what you think of Twilight, or any other love story. Do you think they present a 'real-life' view of relationships? The same argument could be used for Romeo and Juliet. 

Happy New Year!!

Welcome to the New Year!

Its offically 2013. We have survived the Mayan Apocalypse and a Fiscal Cliff! Many things have happened over the past year, and I am glad and blessed to still be on the right track. However, with the new year comes New Year Resolutions.

Yes, I know. Everyone says their going to do something great and wonderful at the beginning at the year, and my February the resolution is done and forgotten about. However, I am deciding to let you all know what my 2013 resolutions are and hopefully stick to him for the remainder of the year.

1. Working Out. Yes extremely cliche, but I need to get it right and tight for the summer time. There is no excuse, being as though I have a free gym on campus, that I cannot work out at least twice a week. Last semester I couldn't because I was working, but I think that chapter is over for me. I'm going to devote myself to my studies this semester, and since that means more free time, I'll have more opportunities to work out.

2. Improve My Grades. As stated in the last resolution, I was working the fall semester, and my time was usually spent going to class and going to work. No time to study, no time to hang with friends. So, now that I know I can't slack like I did this semester, I'm going to shape up and really take the initiative to do better in class.

3. Keep Rocking the Natural 'Do. Can you believe its been a year? My hair has grown SO much and I'm so excited. To be truthful, I don't like my hair straight anymore now that I have my hair natural. I'm going to keep my hair like this and hopefully grow it even longer so I can reach my hair length goal!

Well those are it for me! I have started with the first resolution by buying exercise clothes. Once I feel a bit better, I'm working it out on the Wii Fit and get my body right for the summer.

This is just the start of my weekly (it might become bi-weekly) blogs. Hopefully someone likes them, and likes what I have to say, whether its about a tv show, musical artist or random news event. Maybe someone could give me ideas about what I could blog about. I'll take requests! :)
And I think that each blog should end with a question so that a discussion could be had in the comments on Facebook. So, like any start of the year, here is my question to you all:

What are your New Year's Resolutions?

Justice for Trayvon Martin

I guess this is the post to currently write out all my feelings, because at this point I am completely enraged, even though I try to hide it. I'm going straight off of emotion, so there is no proofreading or stopping...I'm just writing how it comes to me.

Trayvon Martin...Where to even begin? The case in itself is all fucked up, and not only does it have to with racism in America, but also the fucking politics that comes with a name.

I know everyone has heard about the case, so I don't feel the need to recite the facts over and over again. However, there are things about the case, in particular, that really don't sit well with me. (I warn you now, there will be a lot of profanities in this post, so read on if you dare.)

The 911 call. I can't listen to the whole thing, because it really saddens me to hear Trayvon crying out for help, while the person is trying to tell police what is going on. George Zimmerman claims that it was him screaming for help in the background, but anyone with a good ear and common sense can tell that the voice heard is of a young man, NOT an old ass person. To have the nerve to use the 911 call as an advantage to get himself out of the fucked up situation he got himself in baffles me.

The arrest record. You know what, I have come to the conclusion that the only reason that Zimmerman is not arrested yet is because of his fucking parents. If it wasn't because his parents are employees of the federal court system, his ass would have been in jail YEARS ago. But because his daddy is a retired judge, he can persuade the police in Sanford to do whatever he wants them to do. What I don't understand is how does Casey Anthony, a woman who was ACCUSED of killing her own child not arrested, but this man who we all know killed Trayvon is NOT ARRESTED YET. I need an ANSWER. It doesn't come together AT ALL.

The Sanford Police Department and the 'Stand Your Ground' Law. These fucktards at the Sanford Police Department really should be on the shit-list of EVERY FUCKING FLORIDA RESIDENT. They FAILED at their jobs, letting this man go and not questioning him further on the events of that night. The 911 dispatcher told him not to follow Trayvon, and what did he do? The followed and killed him anyway. The 'Stand Your Ground' law is the stupidest fucking thing I have ever heard of, and the Sanford Police Department and Zimmerman's lawyers are trying to twist the words of the law, citing that Zimmerman had the right to kill Trayvon. If ANYONE had the motive of self-defense, it was Trayvon. Zimmerman basically stalked him, and invaded his grounds. Trayvon, in my opinion, had every right to defend himself from Zimmerman. Now, the head of the police department wants to step down. His ass should have been fired for not doing his job! As a cop, your job is to protect the people. If all the evidence, not circumstanial evidence, but SOLID evidence points to this man, then why not arrest him?

Joe Oliver. This FUCKING UNCLE TOM PAID SPOKEPERSON BITCH ASS MOTHERFUCKER!!!!!! It is clear as day to me that the person that the Zimmerman's hired to try to bring to light that Zimmerman is not racist, is the fucking worst attempt I have ever seen. This man probably doesn't know Zimmerman from a can of paint, and is going on CNN, MSNBC, and all other news outlets trying to convince the public that Zimmerman was acting in self defense. Do you know he had the nerve to say that his 17 year old daughter said that coon is a term of endearment?? If that wasn't the straw that broke the camels back for me, then I don't know what was. I am from a predominatley black area. I have NEVER heard anyone use the word coon in the way that Zimmerman used it. I was clearly a term to belittle Trayvon's character by saying "fucking coons". This man cannot be serious. He is the epitome of greed, ignorance, stupidity that I have EVER seen.

Racists. Or more known as the people trying to spin Trayvon into some thug who assulted and attacked Zimmerman. I don't see how the evidence is clear as day to these people, yet they still refuse to believe that this boy is innocent. It really makes me upset, and I know I shouldn't be, when people make ridiculous racist comments. Why can't black people be innocent? From what I see, white people commit the most crimes, kill the most people, brainwash and corrupt the minds of individuals on a LARGE scale everyday, but we can't be innocent? It pains me to know that, even though I knew racism still exists, it is so prevalent in my age group. People on Twitter making racial comments, and they are my age. Sometimes, I can't even blame them, I blame their fucking stupid ass, bango motherfucking redneck ass parents. What makes it even worse is that other minorities hate on each other. What is that? We are all opposed people. What does hating on the next group DO for you?Someone even commented that since Zimmerman is Hispanic, he can't be racist. WHAT KIND OF LOGIC IS THAT??? EVERYONE CAN BE RACIST!!! There is no defending a man who clearly acted in a fit of rage over Trayvon's outfit, skin color, or even Zimmerman's mentality of 'rent-a-cop' superhero. I just find it funny that the color of my skin, something I can't change, effects you so directly. I don't comment on the stupid ass ignorant shit I see white people do on the DAILY, so why do I have to be subjected to the sterotypes of black people. With that, I'll say this, not all white people are racist. In fact, many of them aren't. I have AMAZING friends, who happen to be white, and they are the most down to earth loving people, who care about me no matter what my skin color is.

To sum it all up, justice needs to be served...NOW. Not 2 weeks from now, but right the fuck now. It has gone on too long, and I'm afraid to say that if it doesn't there might be crazy ass riots happening all over the place and the beginning of something bigger.

Hopefully though, to keep it on a positive note, that won't happen and a jury will convict him of the right cause.

Workouts

Work outs. I know, I hate them. However, with recent developments (and all this damn college food), I think I need to start going to the gym.

But when I go, I don't want to be looking like a sad lost puppy, asking "What am I supposed to do?" I really find that's embrassing, considering the MANY people who frequent my school gym know exactly what they want to do and how to do it. I have been scouraging the internet, trying to find exercises for teens, and women. However, these searches seem to be futile.

Watching my roommate and her boyfriend do P90X, makes me think I really need to start working out and getting in shape for the summer. (Although, I seriously doubt I'll be going to anyones pool or beach. But we'll see.) I want to be in shape, which is a big difference from being thin.

When I tell people I need to work out, they look at me like I've lost my mind, especially my high school friends. I mean, whenever I would tell them that I'm out of shape or something in this category, I really think they thought I was lying. I may be thin, but that doesn't mean in shape. I'm okay, sure. But, I really want to get into a routine of working out. If I establish this routine now, then I can be in shape as I get older and gain weight. I don't wanna be 30 years old, looking severly out of shape or overweight. That's not even old enough to look that way!

Whenever I usually go to the gym, I get on the bikes or the treadmill, but that only works my legs. I want to work my abs especially, to get them flat. Its not a muffintop or pudgy or anything, but its something I want to work on.

Maybe I'll search some more and find something. =)

Currently...

Hello again!

Long time no hear from. I have been contemplating making a blog post for some time now, and realized, I have absolutely nothing to talk about. Nada. Zip. None. I guess I feel like I should only write when something exciting happens, but then that would be next to never.

So, some updates with myself.
 1) I am back in school. Yeppers. I am offically back on Towson soil. I have been back in B-More for about a week now. Its been extremely interesting, to say the least. I have been making more of an effort to communicate with my friends on campus, seeing as though I felt so "out of the loop" last semester. I have the nack to isolate myself from people, because I like my personal space, but there comes a point where I just want to be included. So there's that. Secondly, I like all of my classes. My boring chemistry professor just left, so now I have an awesome one, who is considerably more intersting than the last. My classes end all before 4:00p.m, so I have a very easy schedule that doesn't take up most of my time. I am taking CHEM 105, SOCI 101, PSYCH 101, PHIL 101, and ENGL 102 this semester. These are pretty easy classes, but the only one I don't like is my philosophy class. The professor is so freaking BORING!!! I hate even mustering up the energy to go to class on Tues./Thurs.
 2) TU After Dark was so much fun! So we had an event on campus the Friday of the first week of classes called TU After Dark. I met some really cool girls there, and me and my friends had fun, although someone was being a sourpuss, but whatever. -__- The point is I had fun, and that's all that mattered. There was lines for EVERYTHING, though. And the lines took forever to move. They had karaoke, mechanical bulls, game show, live animal show, and other things that were really cool.
 3) Natural for a month! Yep. You heard me right. I really thought by this time I would have reverted back to my old ways and put heat on this hair, but nope! I am officially off of it! I have not applied heat to my hair in over a month. I'm so excited! I really think I can keep this up, and just let my hair grow naturally. It seemed to have grown a lot in my problem area in a little over a month, so just wait until May! My hair will be awesome-ly grown out by then. I'm still doing the coil outs on my hair, since I had more of a tapered style it looks better, and it hides the problem area extremely well. Everyone compliments me on my hair and I LOVE that. Not to sound superficial or anything, but I was really unsure about leaving my hair in its natural state, since ALL people have seen me with straight hair and seem to like that rather than curly hair. But, I like it, and now that others have acknowledged that I look good with it, I feel great about my decision.
 4) Videos. I started doing youtube videos, but then I figured, what's the point? I think a blog is good enough for me right now. I don't like to have my image out for many people to see. However, I do have one video up, and its a video response to one of my favorite Youtubers, 4itsrox. I did like 4 videos after that, but took them down. I was just bored and needed something to do, and those were it.
 5) Sociology experiment. I just got an assignment for my sociology class to basically do something out of the norm and write a brief assessment on how other people reacted towards you and how you felt about breaking the normal code. So, I asked on the book of faces (Facebook) and decided that I should sit cross legged in an elevator in Tower C, where my friend stays and see how people react to me. I think I would have one friend in the elevator with me, just for support, but they would ride and act like they don't know me, while I sit on the floor. I think it could be interesting.

It was snowing when I came in from class, like 45 minutes ago, but I'm not sure if it still is. I want something to stick so I don't have to go to my 8am tomorrow.

Off to do homework. Buckets of fun! -_________-

My Thoughts On SOPA

Hey! Maryam wanted me to talk about the SOPA Act, so I decided to make a video!! Check it out!
These videos should be more than the actual blogs, because I can just talk to the camera and go with it. So, expect to see these more often!
