Happy New Year again!
I'm late. Yes, I know.
Sorry about that. A new year means new things to plan and organize. Been slightly busy with this and that but I'm here now. To blog... about New Year's day and whatnot.
First off,
May this year bring you joy, happiness, wealth, prosperity, good health, whatever whatever. All good things, that is. It's time to step out of 2009 and in to 2010. However crappy 2010 may turn out to be, remember that there's always next year. And by the way, I strongly disapprove of the people who keep insisting that the world will end in 2012. If it ends in 2012, so be it. Stop depressing everyone by saying that we'll be gone in 2 years time.
Anyways, 2010, here I come. The first two days of this new year have already proved to be... quite normal. I don't think I'll be saying that next week. I'll probably be busy, busy, busy but fear not, for I shall not forget thee, dear blog. Har har. Shakespeare, I am not. Forget my pathetic attempt at talking medieval language.
I don't have many resolutions this year but I found this and thought it summed up a few of my plans:
Yes. And to add to the list:
- Smile more.
- Try not to curse and swear too much.
- Try to actually finish my assignments on time.
- Give my dog more attention so that he won't be so deprived and won't feel the need to run away like a silly mutt. Okay, that was unkind. I take that back...
- Tolerate more nonsense from people I hate dislike.
- Uh... do something useful with my life.
- Try not to wish for the year to end quickly seeing as it's hardly been two days since the new year.
- Complain less.
And yeah, that about sums up what I plan to do this year.
What do you plan to do?
We watched the fireworks display from the usual rooftop this year and it was amazing though I don't think it was anything great compared to all the other ones I saw on CNN. LOL. The grass on the other side always looks greener, I guess.
This is not the real picture. I just nipped it from Bing images.
And... apart from New Year's day, nothing much has been going on. Same old, same old.
I've been invited to a friend's birthday barbecue party. I'm wondering if I should go. I feel awkward at social events. I mean, I'm not unsociable... I just don't fit in because I'm not like everybody else. And I hate buying birthday presents for people because it's a hassle. I must sound pretty mean but seriously though, birthday parties and buying birthday presents are not fun things to do.
Oh, by the way,
I went grocery shopping with my mom on New Year's Eve.
School's gonna suck. Oh well. Nothing new there.
That's probably it from me today or is it tomorrow already? Ah well.
Love and peace, T.
and i just thought i should tell you, baby
My ten favorite songs and why I like them.
1. Taylor Swift - Jump Then Fall
[The lyrics are so nice, I gotta love the song and the guitar parts. And also because the song isn't overplayed or overrated. She's a great songwriter and her songs are lovable but hearing You Belong With Me or Fifteen on the radio every day is not fun. People like songs then they twist their taste in music sometimes. Yes, we still love Taylor but I prefer her golden curls to her blonder, straightened hair.]
2. Backstreet Boys - Straight Through My Heart
[It's so old school compared to the other songs on their This Is Us album. My mom has been a big BSB fan since forever and she still is and that makes me proud to love their songs. I think it's the introduction of the song that attracts attention. It's so pop.]
3. Adam Lambert - For Your Entertainment
[Gosh, I don't know where to start. Maybe because my family is a huge fan of this song! It's so catchy, you can't hate it. Even my mom likes it. Who thought she would?! Not me! Adam's vocal performance is great. I love this song. Let's hope my dog will start liking it too!]
4. Cascada - Fever
[It's her second single from the Evacuate The Dancefloor album. I only like the verse. The chorus? Not so much. Only the verse catches my attention.]
5. One Republic - Secrets
[Because I'm such a big fan of them! I heard this song at McDonalds recently and my face lit up, literally. There was another time I heard their song in the car and I practically yelled, "Yes! This song!". How embarrassing.. 
]
6. Jesse McCartney - It's Over
[I have no idea why I like this song. I wasn't originally a big fan of his songs but nowadays, I can't stop listening to them. Oh, this is his favorite song! It's good to know that I like the same song as the singer himself. 
I can't say his voice isn't good.. Well, I like this song. End of story.]
7. Maroon 5 - Makes Me Wonder
[This song brings back a few memories here and there. Also because I miss Maroon 5 and their songs. This is like our other vacation song. Makes Me Wonder has a catchy beat and the great guitar parts will make you crave for more.]
8. Ciara (ft. Justin Timberlake) - Love S-- Magic
[Excuse me for censoring the song name in such a way. It just feels inappropriate. Great song for a fashion show. It made me wanna dance to the beat. I love the beat. Ciara's a pretty good singer. And J.T? Great since N'sync. The music world should have more duets like these.]
9. All-American Rejects - Real World
[My all time favorite. How can I not like this song? It's so nice. I still listen to it.]
10. Simple Plan - When I'm Gone
[I love this song.. again.]

Top five music videos.

Well, I'm running out of time. I've been writing this post for two hours while multi-tasking. I would write more but I guess I'll have to save that for later. Watching music videos, loading songs, listening to music, Tweeting, talking, thinking, IM-ing while writing a post is definitely not something anyone would do.
Ta.
baby you’re beautiful, there’s nothing wrong with you
Today's confession: I'm in love with Adam Lambert's songs.
The man himself.
Whataya Want From Me is our vacation song. How cool is that? Love that song. And his live performance is real.
And I've discovered that Aftermath is a pretty good song too. Yay, Adam!
x
Officially off tour. New record please. I hope they make more good music because they're real good. Toad said on their Twitter that they'll be back on tour sooner than we all think. Toad... just how soon is soon? We don't mind the wait for a new album, really.
x
I watched Lady Gaga's Bad Romance video.
Now what do I think of it...?
Hmm.. over dramatized, as usual. Costumes, main idea and all.
x
And aside from music that I listen to, I watched a Demi Lovato music video on TV today and my mom was absolutely disgusted with her screaming that people call singing. And what's with all the red lipstick? How old is she anyway? 35?
I also watched Party in the USA. It was striptease-worthy and I bet her daddy's way proud of her. I'm no fan of Miley at all. Well, make that all the Disney singers. A batch of screaming youngsters is just what we need in this generation. Way to go, Disney. Why can't we have more people like Debbie Gibson and Mandy Moore and Sara Bareilles?

You must be wondering where we've been these few days. Well, we've been having a good time, that's for sure. Now we're back.
Or more precisely, I am back.
I haven't written anything worthy lately and somebody's been egging me to. So here it is. My worthy post of pictures and random captions because I'm sooooo interesting (note sarcasm). I don't really know what to say except for Christmas is around the corner and there's nothing to suggest the spirit of joy because moods have been dampened by stupid relatives who make life hard for others.
You know what? If life didn't have any boundaries or law, I would totally stand up, throw down my napkin and just tell any jerk in their faces to eff off. People can only take so much and if you're making life hard for everybody, someone needs to tell you that we're not your stepping stones and we don't do shoe-shining like Charlie Bucket in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
Weddings nowadays are just businesses for couples to earn profit from. How nice it must be to rip people off and drain their wallets dry while you celebrate your marriage and expect people to shower you with cold hard cash and gifts. Killing two birds with one stone?
x
I hate being the only one who listens and cares. I'm not Superman. I can't swallow all of it down and I know it's hard for them too but it's always me the people run to whenever they have something to complain or shed tears about. I care and I want to listen and I want to help you but a triple dose of it everyday just makes me wish I was elsewhere.
And then there are people who are so wrapped in their own business and oblivious to the real world and the harsh truth of life. They just live life as if nothing is happening because they don't care and it doesn't concern them in any way. Go on, blast music, continue spending money like water, continue eating like there's no tomorrow, slice your wrists when you do realize that there is pain in this world, throw hissy fits when nothing pleases you, sulk in the corner, wait for someone to feed you with a silver spoon, ignore us. When you step out into the real world, you won't have a chance.
What do I care?
No one ever said life would be easy.
Where are those headphones when I need them???
x
I'm no cynic, no, I got a heart of gold.
This line speaks the truth and only the truth about my personality.
x
I bought new flip flops. Ya can't beat that.
x
Woot. 900 posts in 1 year and two months. Something to celebrate about?

Did any of you watch the Two Is Better Than One video?
I don't like it, not because Taylor Swift didn't appear in it. It's because the whole video was spinning during the flashbacks of the girl and guy. What's up with that? And the zooming in into their faces? Sad case. Martin didn't sing with real emotion so the way he sang it seemed fake at the high parts. I think if Taylor appeared in the video, it would've been better because you get to see her singing, not just the couple having their fantasy.
Overall? Disappointing.
...
I'll do a better top ten next week, along with top five music videos. Hopefully, more pictures will be included. I hate it when I can't find a good picture for the musicians of my top ten favorite songs. Or maybe I shouldn't even include pictures..
Posts are important, and better with comments.
Later.
i’m helplessly falling into your eyes like whoaaa

Dude, I'm getting the hang of the lyrics. Cool beans! I'm not singing though. Nuh-uh.
x
That be it for this week.
P.S: Justin Bieber's songs (French or not) sucks. No offense. It sucks. He needs to grow up, okay? He and Miley should not go around acting like they're very clever. Sorry both of you, you're not.

Someone's going home.

I should say something important but I have nothing to say.
Christmas is around the corner.

Okay, since C went "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" like she'd hit me if I didn't write more in this post, I'm going to talk about my piece of work.
I've been writing and so far I have 39000 words and I'm proud of every single word I've written.
I'm so used to Microsoft Word correcting my misspellings, I even expect it to correct automatically now. Nooo, I can't be so dependent on Microsoft Word.
I love the AOL session with Weezer ft. Sara Bareilles. So fun and the lyrics are as cute as ever. We love Weezer! =w=
Leighton Meester + electropop = sad case.
Adam Lambert + Time For Miracles = sudden outburst in car. *private joke
Okay, that's it from me.
Goodbye.
x
did you trade it for something?
Didn't I tell you that Marc Jacobs is a genius? I'm putting these two tops on my Christmas wish list.
x
One Republic is godly. Ryan Tedder is incredible, I'm telling you.
x
x
x
Blue is coming back. Are you excited?
x
x
Boys Like Girls. It's real hard to find a decent picture because it's always messed up by one of them looking weird. Like really weird.
x
This is Gaga. You love her. She's scary and she looks better with dark hair - her original hair color.
x
Next spring/summer? Pierre, what songs are you writing?? Are they each going to be 8 minutes long???
x
Yes, Nick, we don't like your paisley tux. Throw it away and get more cute T-shirts. ;D
x
Sebastien Lefebvre - Good Night
His fifth Mlog (music video blog?). We love the Seb on the left. Adorable. Seb in glasses is weird.
I have nothing more to say.
C made me write a post so here it is. 130 words of utter nothingness.
Bleh.
x
as I stare at you for hours
They should have more signs like these around town.
x
So.. since C didn't put up pictures for Jesse McCartney in her previous post, I will put 'em up now. MWAHAHAHA!
Why did he have to go dark haired? Blond was cute.
x
Let's see.. The Gibson or..
..or the Takamine.
Literally and figuratively.
x
The French Canadian. What has happened to David? If it's one person who is good at keeping a low profile, it's this guy. Haven't heard a peep about him in what seems like donkey years.
x
I LOVE this picture. It's "pretty fla", quote Sebastien. Gabe, if I stood beside you, it would be as if I were a mushroom and you were a redwood tree. Okay, maybe not a mushroom. How about a mango tree? Lol.
x
At Katy's 25th birthday bash. James Valentine, Katy Perry and Mickey Madden. Who wants to invite me to their birthday party?
x
Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox. Man, they look good together. 
Hi, my name is Paul Walker. Hi, Paul, nice gesture you're showing your fans. I love peace. Really? So do I.
x
I want a Taylor Taylor guitar. Grrr. Maybe no Gibson or Takamine then.
x
Hope you enjoyed my random thoughts and random pictures.
More later.
