Here I am...



I always write when I find something really cool, do something really cool, or am avoiding something not so cool. Definitely avoiding a lot of homework right now.

Good news is both TPA's are done. Went to Vegas successfully to see Kelly Clarkson and didn't break contract of course. IT WAS AWESOME. Don't ask me how many times this year alone even I have seen her. It's embarrassing. But that's my hobby ok? We did a bunch of free stuff in Vegas, it was so fun. I woke up the day after though with cigarette smell in my hair and a techno beat in my head and didn't even DO anything haha.

My sister turned 20 (geeze) and came to visit this weekend. We went to Disneyland. One of the best times at Disneyland I've had in awhile just because we did a lot of fun stuff and had fun people. I love Christmas at Disneyland with the fireworks and fake snow... so romantic hahahaha. Her car broke down though which caused stress and my mom had to drive down and take care of it. But oh well.

All I wanna do all day is watch ALL the tv shows I've been missing, download tons of music, organize my media on my computer and work on new video projects for fun. And that is what I plan to do Christmas break.

I had to buy a small heater because my room is kinda like a laundry room (door to the outside, tile floor, random sink) and is FREEZING. I will literally pass away this winter I think. So nice knowing you all. I hate the cold. Love the fashion, hate the cold. Hate it.

Here are my thoughts about Taylor Swift right now: too much too soon too young. She's only 19 and has won almost all the awards possible (especially the huge Entertainer of the Year). What's left? You've been around a couple years and done it all? That kinda sucks. Nothing to look forward to. Also she should not have won female vocalist at the CMAS. Entertainer, yes. But vocalist over Faith, Reba, Martina, and Carrie? Noooo way. Sorry hon, you can't even vibrato....now if it were a writer's award, then you should win no doubt.

Here are my thoughts on Rihanna right now. Way to go for speaking up about the violence. Way NOT to go for having new crap songs that are getting so much airplay it's ridiculous. A song about "pulling the trigger"...honestly...what a message. Crap music. But seriously, way to go for finally coming out and speaking about Chris Brown. What he did was unacceptable for the example he sets and he is lucky if he continues to have a career.

Speaking of airplay, I hate the radio down here. They play the SAME songs over and over and over. They won't play Kelly's new ballad Already Gone, but they will play Beyonce's Halo like it just came out (they have the same back tracking in the song so my point is that if they play one they should play the other). Honestly, I really keep getting disgusted lately that because of the media's perception of Kelly's image, they want nothing to do with her. Also, Kelly was nominated for artist of the decade, along with some others, for Rolling Stone's Artist of the Decade. Huge honor. And fitting too since she started the whole American Idol thing and entered the scene the beginning of this decade. So some guy writes on my facebook that it's DISGUSTING that she was nominated. Why? Why? because she isn't "hot" to you? She is an artist just like every other nominee. The shallowness of men shows when they make comments like that. He then said the only one worthy of their nominations were Beyonce, U2 and Coldplay. Well great, that's your opinion, but who are you to say it's DISGUSTING that a singer was nominated. I don't see why she's not worthy. I never got his reason why, but I bet it's because he knows nothing about her (probably only thinks of her radio hits and pop image back in the day) and thinks she's just another Idol winner that hasn't made her own way. People need to research. I don't write this post because it's about Kelly. I write this because it is an example of people making judgments when they have no prior knowledge. Especially such harsh judgments as the word 'disgusting'. You better be able to back up that opinion because I am sick of it and society's unreasonable demands. So many times I feel like I can't keep up with what I should look like. "need to work out, shouldn't eat that, get up earlier and put on make up". And then I realize, I am fine with how I look. This is how God made me. I shouldn't have to work extra extra hard to try to be a size 4. So when people say things such as 'disgusting' about a woman who is completely normal and has to deal with that in the public eye, then I am going to feel that I am just as disgusting since most of the time I am too lazy to try at all. So keep that in mind if that boy happens to stumble upon my blog (doubt it) hahaha.

That made me feel a LITTLE better.
