When I love my friends most = when they introduce me to amazing things like what’s below. Here’s a version of ‘s video for “Single Ladies” to a mashup of two pretty Vivaldi songs (who?! lol). Actually just before I saw my friend’s post, I was thinking to myself earlier, “Ummm, isn’t it Spring? Why am I still FREEZING?” Just play.

Here’s one of my favorite songs from ‘s platinum edition re-release of Fearless, “Jump Then Fall.” By the way, the re-release of Fearless is just like the re-release of Lady GaGa‘s The Fame–it makes for an even more perfect album.

pctomacIt’s finally happened. The guy who said he would never get a Mac just ordered one. Don’t get me wrong, I think Apple products (aka my iPod) are amazing…but I’ve just been used to the PC for a really long time now. I’ve been making websites since I was eight years old and a person just gets comfortable. But what happened all of a sudden? What made me leave the PC? I’m just tired of viruses-crashing-unexplainable-uncertainty-failure-to-keep-up. Currently my “portable” laptop crashes whenever I move it. That’s really great/convenient (sarcastic). But what has really pushed me in my decision is this: all my friends seem to be so happy with their Macs and I never hear them complaining. And I really don’t want to be a person who complains about their computer. So to alleviate the situation…my new computer is on the way…but that’s not all.

Did you know you can customize your Mac at Apple.com? Well…that’s exactly what I did. I thought to myself, “what if I had an insanely fast computer?” I basically selected all the best options related to speed/size (despite everyone advising me against that). They told me, “You’ll never need that much.” Then I said, “Who decides what I need but me?” Ya burnt!

Fun fact: my first computer was actually a Mac. This is like ages ago when computers first came out. I’m not sure how/why we switched over to the PC…but it’s what I’ve been using basically ever since…now.

I’m totally setting my expectations really high just because I am one of those PC–>Mac switchers. I don’t know what to feel. I have a feeling that all the extra stuff (dollars) will give me exactly what I need (it better). OMG, look at me I’m turning into one of those Apple people. The only thing missing is an iPhone…and I will not leave Verizon just for a phone…not to mention…my new Verizon LG enV Touch phone is actually my best iPhone wannabe to date. It literally does everything I need. I get easy email, visual voicemail (I knew Verizon would catch up), and it just has that cool/flowy feel of the iPhone. Well done, LG.

It will be here next week. Even though I’ll miss window controls on the right side of the screen and the easier right-click…I’m excited.
:)

My thought at the moment. I just love the live versions of some of her songs (Irreplaceable and Me Myself & I are the faves.)

whyperezhiltonisheartlessSo I definitely read Perez Hilton almost every day because he talks about some stuff I find newsworthy (and sometimes he’s ). But for a while now I’ve been noticing how hypocritical he really is. I am mainly referring to his handling of this Rihanna situation. As you may know, there are now naked pictures of Rihanna floating all over the internet. These pictures were further exploited on PerezHilton.com. Didn’t this girl go through enough dealing with a very public domestic violence case? Not to mention having beaten up pictures of her put online as well? My feelings could best be described by a comment on PH.com by PerezPolice. And here it is:

WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU?? Look I understand it’s your job to blog about this type of stuff but how hypocritical is it that you have been blogging for months saying “oh riri get better, we love you blah blah blah” then you turn around and exploit the poor girl even more!?! You have one of the most popular websites in the world and you could have passed over this story and saved her from more humiliation …YOU’RE A DIRT BAG!!!! -PerezPolice

My thoughts exactly. Imagine the millions of people Perez could have prevented from seeing these pictures if he hadn’t posted them. It’s your job to report the news, not exploit celebrities and push them to a point of complete humiliation/breakdown. I just had to speak my mind. Heartless.

How about you use your influence positively (which you definitely are capable of doing) rather than posting pictures of people’s breasts, dicks, asses, and vaginas? Disgusting.

Here are the latest stats for my first contest. Because many of you are literally borderline one another, I have decided to give the contest one more week. It would make me feel a lot better if I didn’t have someone not win by 3 clicks. Consider entering because this is the least-competitive contest in the history of the world. Click here for details again. Contest now ends on Friday, March 27.

So my blog has basically been a Britney Spears fansite for the past few days…but can you really blame me? I’ll probably have more pictures/things to say after the next two shows, but if you want to keep up with the Britney stuff, it’ll be here on the main page as well as to your top right titled “My Circus Journey.” It’s just easy access to all things Britney/Circus. I’ll be back later!

\
P.S. I’ll post the contest update tonight!

UPDATE: Seeing The Pussycat Dolls and Britney Spears last night felt like a dream.

The Greatest

scene23This one only one person can understand.
\

\
You think Dorothy, Monica, Laurie, Donavan, and Josh knew that their biggest accomplishment wouldn’t be selling cd’s and making music, but rather, bringing us together so we could become “The Greatest”? “I really don’t think so.”
\

\
Shout out to the girl who has been through every adventure with me, since Scene-23.com, my partner in crime, Shanta. Loves ya. You’re my hero. Oh, and we so got this.

Some things in my room

February 26th, 2009
Posted In: Uncategorized

I want to share a couple of things in my room with you. Just something from me to you. Enjoy.
\

\
ad-3I really love my Gossip Girl poster. I don’t know what I can say about it…it speaks for itself. Oh and just so you know, this poster used to belong on the side of a bus… I bought it on eBay… Wait, did I really do that? Yes.
\

\
ad-2This is a collage that one of my best friends (shout out to BFFAB, you know who you are) made for me. If I had to choose a poster to describe myself, this would be it. It is the best present I have ever been given. I don’t think she knows that yet. :)
\

\
ad-1Oh shit, it’s me. I thought this was a sexy picture of me, but now that I look at it…no, I’m not about to kill you. Someone needs to shave…but it’s going to be too hard so I’ll save it for when I’m desperate.
\

\
Yeah, just some things in my room.

I only have one class on Tuesday’s and Thursdays this semester. Today I walked to campus (one mile walk at most?) and as I am about to cross the street to go to the business school, I see a girl from one of my classes. I think to myself, “okay she’s just cutting class.” As I cross the street, she tells me class got cancelled… Best news ever.
\

\
A couple of things:
\

\
1) There is nothing better than class being cancelled when you’re tired (and maybe even if you aren’t tired). There’s just no arguing it.
\

\
2) I earned it? I walked to campus damnit.
\

\
3) I went to instead. I totally think that place is like Disneyland for some people. No?

Contest Update: Week 1

So last week I posted about my first contest, 20 people entered, and only 5 of those people are somewhat active. Basically what I’m saying is, if you make the smallest effort, you basically get an iPod. Today one of my friends linked this site on her Facebook (just to be nice, love ya M’balu) and I totally just made her join my contest so that she could get an iPod in return. I might as well hook up my friends for doing something nice for me. Consider entering because this is the least-competitive contest in the history of the world. Click here for details again.
