Ew. School.
You all know what this means, right? I update even less than how I do now! Soooo, this is goodbye. . . Sorta. Small round green veggies!
In case you didn't read the title, it's the last day of summer vacation for me. It almost doesn't feel real. Denial is the first stage in the five stages of loss and grief, so I must be losing and grieving over something. I'm also a bit on edge since I have no idea how to do anything in high school. At least I'm not going to college just yet, unlike my brother!

Awesomeness ahead.
The only thing awesomer than that quote from vsauce is the fact that I actually understood all of it!
So if you didn't get all of that, it's basically impossible for someone to be completely normal. Meaning it's normal to be different. And usually, if you think you're different, you're really pretty normal. Yeah, that makes lots of sense. Anyway, I watched Rise of the Guardians last night. . . or this morning. Whatever you consider "sleeping at 3 am" means. Well, I was expecting the worst, but I got what was not expected! Hee hee, brings back all the Big Four memories! In case I haven't told you guys, I may not be updating every! single! day! cuz' I'm doing an online summer school thing. No, I didn't fail anything, I'm doing it for reasons. I haven't said this in a long while: small round green vegetables! Guess who has two thumbs and only has 9 and a half days of middle school left? THIS GURRRL!
Also, guess who's really sorry for not updating a website often? THIS GURRRL! Yes, 9.5 school days until I am a "high schooler". I won't feel like a high schooler. I'll feel like a girl who's super excited to spend her days doing nothing. Yes, for once I'm excited to get out of school. Usually I'm groaning about how I'll miss everyone and how I'm worried I won't see a lot of my friends the next year. Those feelings should be reasonable now that kids I've known since elementary school are going to other schools and friends I've known for a long while are moving away. But for some strange reason, I'm just not that affected. I think it's because of the work. Math homework. Every. Single. Day. I have a 2-inch binder that's about to explode with notes and assignments. I've got 2 study guides for the finals at the moment, and we're still doing projects in science. This blog post became a rant. I don't like it. I don't like moping, but I do a lot of it on here, huh? Shucks. On the bright side, all that work paid off cuz' I earned straight A's for all three years in middle school! Meaning an award of a KINDLE from the school! Or money. Either way, I'll be shoving it in people's faces! :D Well, before I leave for about two weeks, I just wanna say if you guys wanna tell me something, go ahead and leave a comment or something! I'm all ears. I'm interested. Tell me about yourselves. DO IT. See ya! Pentatonix consists of talented, hilarious people. I realized how obsessed I was with them while studying for freakin' HUGE-20%-OF-MY-GRADE-STRESSFUL-BIG-DEAL semester exams. Or midterms, whatever you want to call it. Boop boop.
Do you know what I'm not obsessed with? Inappropriate comments. Yeah, I get it, inappropriate comments are all over YouTube and really any social media site, but that's because it's hard to control that many people. This site can be for an older audience, but that doesn't mean they want to look at irrelevant comments that could be considered offensive. So until millions of people randomly start visiting this site (wink wink!), I will have to approve every single comment before publishing. Meaning, it could take days or even weeks for your comment to be posted. I'm sorry guys, but unless you saw the comment, you wouldn't know how obscene that comment was. For a site like this, it was considered horrid. Those comments aren't tolerated, and you're not helping anyone by trying to post them. So last year I did 2012 Song of the Year. And you know whenever you do ___ of the ___, you're gonna have to keep on the tradition. Like, did any songs have an impact on me emotionally? Pfft, no! Maybe. Yes. So does that mean the one with the most "oh em gee"s is awarded 2013 Song of the Year? Year? Year? Year? Year? Year? Year? Got a bit carried away with that, hmm? And the answer is not necessarily. Cuz' I looked in the Oh Em Gee tag, and the songs that I thought were good nominees just weren't there. Ooh. Nominees. Maybe laying it out will help me decide. The first music post of 2013 was Perfection and Pirates, and I really loved Perfection by Oh Land. Her outfit's a bit crazy in the video, but when did that matter? This live performance was so elaborate with the orchestra and choir. Aweeesomee! Oh, Goosebumps. You bring back memories. Finale by Madeon (still have no idea how to pronounce that) was an awesome song. If I worked out, I would work out to this song. Instead I imagine dramatic stories that would have this in the background. Or mouth it in the mirror. Either way, I like it a lot! There were a lot of songs in the post Ninja + Others, but Time by Hans Zimmer simply was the best. I love soundtracks, and I can only think back to last year, where a soundtrack title was the song of the year! Will this take the cake, hmmm?? Now for a rockin' tune. Hott was a post with the glorious song, Inside a Boy by My Brightest Diamond. Now I'm quoting here: "The intro was just really cool and beautiful and then BOOM! Enter the drums and guitar." And also: "I've been having this on repeat for twelve thousand years, give or take some." Enough said. Updates + Music + Other Stuff was a lovely post. Not only did it have the AWESOME Touch by Daft Punk feat. Paul Williams, it has a Wordle! I will do a Wordle to wrap up the year. I will. *And I swe-e-ear. . .* Dead Hearts. Dear, oh, dear. You know how children go through phases in their lives? The "lol, random" phase? The "scene" phase? Possibly the "emo" phase? I'm convinced I had my own Dead Hearts by Stars phase. I just ah-dored that song, ah-dored it so much it's almost embarrassing. The lyrics meant something more than spooky ghosts! I think any angsty story deserves this song in the background. Nominee fo sho. More angst! Yaayyy! I won't be talking about "get up, get up, get out of my head!!!", no sirree. Get Up had a song with the same title, by Barcelona. Um, yes! I liked the harmonies, like I do in every song that has harmonies. Geeeeeeett, uuuuppppppp. . . Music Time for the Millionth Time was an amazing post. It had a lot of great songs that no one really knew about :) It had Starman by the City of Prague Philharmonic. In case you didn't know, this was sampled to create Dan Black's Symphonies! Oh and what's this? Two nominees in one post??! Yep, Music Time for the Millionth Time also had Mosquito by Ingrid Michaelson. Beautiful. That's all you can really say about this song. Definitely deserves a spot on the nominee list! So that was 9 nominees! Oh gawd, hard decisions make sudden regrets. . . Let's twist this into, like, an American Idol result show. The votes are in, and everyone is just dying to hear the results! Perfection, Time, Inside a Boy, Dead Hearts, and Starman: You are all safe! Now the song with the most votes issss: *awkward silence* Inside a Boy by My Brightest Diamond! *wild applause* Okay, here's why I chose this song. Like any other super long post I do, I got a bit tired thinking of stuff near the end. The soundtracks? Great. Eleborate orchestras? Awesome. Dead Hearts? Lovely. But as I went through and listened to all of these songs, they seemed played out. Yes, they brought back memories, but the one song that I still loved as much as I did when I first heard it? Inside a Boy. And if a song can do that, it deserves to be recognized. I'm sure noneofya guessed that, huh?! And to wrap up 2013, let's make a beautiful Wordle. I don't know about you, but I think it's perfect. I love how near the middle, going down it says "Maybe want year back". Color schemes, man!!!
I love you guys. According to my stats, there's almost 350 of you guys visiting my website, and it may even be more. It's unbelievable. My request for you this new year for this site? Start commenting! Tell me about yourself because 350 people are bound to have some different stories to share, and I'd love to hear them! 2014, peeps. Some crazy crap will ensue! Now small round green vegetables! It's 2:50 am, and I am here watching YouTube videos. One YouTube video, however, tends to tickle my fancy every year. Let the craziness unroll in this fantastic, feel-jerking video known as YouTube Rewind 2013! The people! The references! The memories! I probably seem very strange to you right now, but YouTube is one of my loves. No joke. I think I know everyone except one in the picture above. I even understand the goats, it's just. . . AUGH!
Yep, now it's 3 am. I'm sure I'll stop procrastinating on that book project tomorrow. Happy watching, and g'night-morning! The lovely season started yesterday, meaning Winter Break! I definitely need the break, even though I'll still be working over the break. . . It is unacceptable to not be blogging for a month.
So, Christmas is in 3 days! l;shdlksaflhsaflh I'm so excited! And yo, if you guys wanna tell me about your special holiday traditions (Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, WHATEVER!), I'm all for that! And, ohmigawsh! Did you see those little updates Weebly made with design??! I'm definitely gonna have some fun with that. Well, guys, short post, but I just wanted to update you guys on my work-filled life :) Merry Christmas ya filthy animal! It's official: summer's started. Yay! I get to travel and update the site and listen to music on repeat and all this stuff, but I can't help but feel. . . I dunno, sad? It's hard when you make friendships over a year and then--POOF!--next year, you won't even see them. Heck, I miss my friends already! It's just really bittersweet. And for some reason, the first song that pops up in my mind is For The First Time by The Script. (Btw, I think there's a bad word in there. People say it's "sit", but my ears beg to differ.) We're smiling but we're close to tears Like, I was just sitting there in class after all the testing, enjoying myself with the kids I enjoy being around cuz' you never know. . .
But enough of that! First things first: UPDATE THIS SITE! I reeeeaaally want to update the sister sites page. I never expected that many people wanting to be my sister site! *honored* So I'm gonna have to organize. Maybe close it down for a while? Maybe I can start posting pics on this blog over hurrr, might even post some pics from my trip to the Philippines later! And you just now I'll be blogging a whole lot! Well, I'm hungry! Small round green veggies! Just ONE HALF DAY OF SCHOOL LEFT! But I know, I talk about this too much, so just. . . shhh. Shhh. Shhh. Don't remind me. . . Now, argh! This site is just BRILLIANT. I've talked about it several times and it still never fails to amaze me. And I find all this great music and, ugh. . . Feeeeels. . . But I mean, LISTEN TO THIS!! It's another piece by Hans Zimmer. Soundtracks are, like, becoming, like, my thing, yo! Oh. What I never ever ever talk to my friends from this year? WOULDN'T THAT BE SAD? What if I thought, "Oh, I'll see you next year!" but then. . . it's bye bye forever. Myeh. Just lemme listen to Paperman by Christophe Beck, and it'll be alllllright. And yay! Hope's back! *sparkle hands* Plus plus plus: I'm finding out about all these awesome YouTubers that are awesome! (Click the pics to go to their channels!) Well, *clicks tongue* I'm off to. . . Well, nothin' much to study, so I'll be. . . sitting around, I guess. Small round green veggies!
