Mmmm

Day 37

Day 37- Favorite cover of your favorite song

Uhhhhh....a lot of the songs I like don't have covers. Hmm, maybe I'll think of covers I like? I like Goodnight Nurse's Milkshake. It's really funny, and it's kind of screamy.

But then I also LOVE The Postal Service's version of Such Great Heights. It's actually probably my favorite cover of all time.

Oh my fucking God.

Justin Bieber is so much better this way

It sounds like heaven....and I feel gross saying that about Justin Bieber-anything, but this sounds so fucking cool.

Day 33

Day 33- The 5 song you would have with you on a deserted island and why

1. "Big Jet Plane" - Agnus and Julia Stone: I'd pick this song because I love it and it makes me feel really calm. Like I feel like if I have this song, I will be able to relax and figure out how to survive
2. "Pursuit of Happiness" - Kid Cudi: This song would pump me up. It would motivate me.
3. "Teeth" - Lady Gaga: Really, any song off of the Fame Monster would do, just as long as it's not Alejandro
4. "Ok I Believe You But My Tommy Gun Don't" - Brand New: I'd choose this song because it always reminds me of my family for some reason. It reminds me of times when I would sit in the car with them and have this song playing from my headphones.
5. "I Will Possess Your Heart" - Death Cab For Cutie: This song would probably make me sad, but I need something from Death Cab, and I really love this song

So that's my list. I'd probably change it about a gajillion times, but I think that that's close to what it would be!

I love this man!

Falynn

Have you ever met a girl

and you thought she was dope?

And you wanna buy her a popcorn

and a medium coke?

But when proximity's close,

you close up shop and you choke.

Time to write a thank you note to

dear old dad for the cloak.

She's really cute

and her hair's luminescent.

I fight the urge to smell her,

cuz you know she'd get to steppin'.

But, to just observe

from across the way.

If I was working EB Games

then you would not pay (full price).

I'm nice, and sweet

and I shower twice a week.

Kids diggin' on my speak

cuz I represent the geeks.

But, I'm really hella cool

and I had sex before.

So, don't fidget with your digits

ain't no textin' whore (Oh, that's not true).

I've falynn,

and I can't get up.

Girl, I love you.

Yeah, I got a crush.

I'm on mushrooms

and I lost my lunch.

and I don't think I can make it home alone.

I stare at my shoes

and I look away.

Cuz, I think you're kinda cute,

and I like your face.

One day we might embrace.

and I'll have to hide my boner

you don't wanna do it Dottie,

I'm a rebel and a loner.

I'm a rap superstar

with a mic in my hand.

But, I can't talk to girls,

unless that girl is a fan.

But, yo, I got a plan.

I love when it when it comes together.

We'll get married and have babies,

and we'll all wear matching sweaters.

Yes, I'd do her

if I knew her.

This is hard without computers.

She don't need another stalker

or intruder to pursue her

She don't need a guy like me

who's favorite movie's Starship Troopers

Why don't you kill me, baby?

It's because I am a loser.

I'm a winner, just beginning to

roll up my sleeves.

Roll up next to me

I can't breathe and I wheeze.

Hi, my name is mc.

What's your's? That's great!

Want you in the worst way.

This is so our first date.

I've falynn,

and I can't get up.

Girl, I love you.

Yeah, I got a crush.

I'm on mushrooms

and I lost my lunch.

and I don't think I can make it home alone.

Lady Gaga...A feminist?

"You see if I was a guy and I was sitting here with a cigarette in my hand, grabbing my crotch, talking about how I make music because I love fast cars and fucking girls, you’d call me a rock star. But when I [sing about sex] in my music and videos, because I’m a female, because I make pop music, you are judgmental and you say that it is distracting. I’m just a rock star."

This is Lady Gaga. She used to claim that she wasn't a feminist. However, I think she was wrong then. Now she claims she is one (if I remember the most recent article in Rolling Stone correctly), and I think she has seen the light.

"But Lady GaGa is not a feminist. 'I think it's great to be a sexy, beautiful woman who can f--- her man after she makes him dinner,' she says. 'There's a stigma around feminism that's a little bit man-hating. And I don't promote hatred, ever. That's not to say that I don't appreciate women who feel that way. I've got a lot of gay women friends that are like, 'Put your clothes on.' People just have different views about it. I'm not wrong. I'm free. And if it's wrong to be free, then I don't want to be right. Things are changing. We've got a black president, people.'"

See now, back when she used to say these things, she saw feminism the way most people see feminism, as hating men. But that's not feminism. In all truth, the wants everyone to be free, including women. And isn't that feminism? Yes it is. Gaga, even if I am wrong and you still don't believe you're a feminist, you are one, and I thank you fo it.

Ok, I am editing this post, because I decided I want to write more. I just found this GEM of a quote. It brought shivers down my spine and tears to my eyes.

“I am a feminist. I reject wholeheartedly the way we are taught to perceive women. The beauty of women, how a woman should act or behave. Women are strong and fragile. Women are beautiful and ugly. We are soft spoken and loud, all at once. There is something mind-controlling about the way we’re taught to view women. My work, both visually and musically, is a rejection of all those things. And most importantly a quest. It’s exciting because all of the avant-garde clothing, and musical style and lyrics that at one time was considered shocking or unacceptable are now trendy. Perhaps we can make women’s rights trendy. Strength, feminism, security, the wisdom of the woman. Let’ make that trendy.” -Lady Gaga

I legitimately love this woman. Because really, when did feminism mean never showing your body or sexuality? When did it mean being pure angelic virgins? When did it mean pushing down each of our individual wants, whether sexual or not? It should never mean this! Never should feminism slap some one down for expressing themselves the way they want to! Never should it give a person shit for expressing their sexuality. Yes, Lady Gaga wears revealing clothes! But and equal amount of time, she wears clothes that cover her whole body. Why do we forget this? Why do we forget that women can be everything? We can be sexy! We can be pure! We can be anything we want. What those snooty "feminists" should be focusing on is women out there who don't show any expression or personality. They should be focusing on the fact that women are still seen only for their body, whereas Gaga is telling people to look further! Men aren't ashamed of their anatomy, why should women be? What we should be saying is that women should be free, they shouldn't have to worry about how well they look, unless they WANT to. We should be telling young girls that their looks aren't the most important thing, and that they are allowed to express what ever they need to.

Stop oppressing women's sexuality, bodies, and minds. Why can't we have it all?

Big Jet Plane

Really good music makes me feel so fucking good inside.

Crystal Castles

This song/album has been playing around with me for the past few days. The more I listen to it, the more I love it.

Demon Woman!

I think this is my favorite song from season 2. I love ittt

Lady Gaga Concert

So, this concert was amazing. I have never felt so many tingles from a concert before. She was phenomenal. And when she was saying this, I was tearing up. Legit. I might post more later.

Day 17

Day 17- Some on you would want to switch lives with for a day and why

Lady Gaga. Why? Because she is so amazing. We are seeing her perform tonight, and I am so excited. I think she seems like an amazing person, and I would like to be in her brain even if it was only for a little while. I am so excited for tonight!

I'm gonna live, I'm gonna fly, I'm gonna fail, I'm gonna die

♥♥ Marina and the Diamonds ♥♥

Mouthful of Diamonds - Phantogram

wake up you're getting high on your own supply

oh baby you're still alive when you could've died

the world is not round because of you

you know i'm not around because of you

you've got a mouthful of diamonds

and a pocketful of secrets

i know you're never telling anyone

because the patterns they control your mind

those patterns take away my time

hello, goodbye

wasted you tell the truth when you could've lied

troubles are on the rise cause you're in disguise

and if it isn't me then pack your bags and leave

i wish i could believe

the devils won't take you back out to the salty seas

you've got a mouthful of diamonds

and a pocketful of secrets

i know you're never telling anyone

because the patterns they control your mind

those patterns take away my time

hello, goodbye

Hmm. this is good.

"I like having sex, but I'd rather get some head..."

Girl Talk. It is the sickest music. It's like the Family Guy of music. In that to get it, you need to know quite a wide range of music. Not in the way of being funny or crude. Even though sometimes it is both. I like it quite a bit!

Better now.

Ok, so this morning I was in an icky mood. It was annoying and I felt like shit. But I feel much better now. Part of the reason I'm better is because of Camera Obscura's cd, My Maudlin Career. It's a good one, and I listened to it while I was walking today. It cheered me up. BUT I was walking in the rain. That sucked. But you know, it's better that I did walk, it let my brain relax. So then I went to Artists and Materials. And I got to play with clay! And I got to use the pottery wheel. I sucked at it, but it was so fun. I wanna try it again sometime. I stayed late to try and get my stuff done, and I think I succeeded. So then I hung around and read a little bit. Yaddah yaddah. And then Mass Media class. We talked about movies. Funn. I always feel like there are so many great inputs in that class. I enjoy it. Then I went to English Lit, and we watched a documentary on Frankenstein. So then I walked home in the rain again. Blah blah blah boring shit.

But then my evening got better. I watched Seven Pounds, American Beauty, and now Pineapple Express. And while I was watching those things I did my homework and whatnot. I've had a totally chill day. It's been nice.

In other not-so-boring news, lady bugs are attracted to me. I keep on finding them on me! Like they just hang out around me or something. Weird! Also, I feel bad for the worms, because by tomorrow, they will probably be fried up on the sidewalks. I've been spending most of my day trying to not step on them because the rain brought them out. But tomorrow the sun is gonna kill them. Poor silly wormies. Ok, I'm going to stop now because it's getting boring fast.

The lady.

❝Some women choose to follow men, and some women choose to follow their dreams. If you're wondering which way to go, remember that your career will never wake up and tell you that it doesn't love you anymore.❞ -Lady Gaga

❤

If anyone thought for a minute that Lady Gaga was a stereotypical woman, they would be wrong. It might be cliché that I love her so much, but I see her as a beacon to new times in the music industry. I've been looking into a lot of gender role stereotypes recently, and I've found that the music industry is one of the more rigid media. But, I think Lady Gaga is doing something for that. I am amazed by her. I think that what she is doing for womanhood is underrated. Brava Gaga, Brava.

Sooo...Kanye...

ya got a big ego?

Fiona Apple is my life right now.

Ok, So I love this song. I love Fiona Apple. She's a cool

cat. Also, her version of Across the Universe is freaking

beast!

But in other news, I hate when my brain cannot decide

how it feels. It makes me do a confused face. My brain

hurtssss. It's like when you see an actor in a movie and

you KNOW they were in something else and you just

can't figure it out. It's just like that. Like I have this

weird notion going on in my head and I can't name it.

I know I've felt some form of it before, but I can't tell

what it is or what it means! Harrumph. It's a nuisance.

And I KNOW it is a nuisance, yet I cannot forget

about a feeling. I wish I could, but I cannot. It irks me.

I really love this video, and I love the way Tegan, the singer, moves her face and forms words. I like little details like that.
