Best and Worst Christmas Songs!

'Tis the season to be sick of hearing the same godforsaken songs on every radio station, every store and just everywhere in general. Now there are several songs I'm not fond of... And some I actually like. I feel like there are more songs I don't like than ones I do like... But I'm listening to Christmas songs right now... so I don't really know why I'm complaining and yet listening to it... Idk. Anyway here is the list.

1) Santa Baby- duh I love this song! It's a super long Christmas list of ridiculously expensive stuff. I only really like the original Eartha Kitt version. (Did I ever tell you about the time Pierce Hawthorne slept with Eartha Kitt?) Anyhoo this is a good one.

2) The Chipmunk Christmas Song- This song just gets cuter and cuter every time I hear it! I like that they want a hoola hoop. I like Dave interjecting. I just love the chipmunks in general, and this song is just super super cute.

3) Silver and Gold- this one always feels like Christmas to me. Something about it I just totally love. I like listening to this while looking at decorations because it's about the decorations. And in the Rudolf cartoon I just think its cute that they take a break from the story for the snowman to sing a song. I like.

4) Baby it's cold outside- I love this song. Particularly when Zooey Deschannel sings it. Either on the elf soundtrack or with she and him. Just good. All around.

5) You're a mean one Mr.Grinch- this always manages to put a smile on my face whenever I hear it on the radio. I love the book The Grinch, I love the cartoon version, and I love the Jim Carey version (which I always call the Drew Carey version lol). This is a random one to hear on the radio too, so I think it makes it extra special.

Now the worst... This is fun! No order here, but I'm going to save the creme de la crap for the last.

1) Under the Mistletoe by Justin Bieber- I never really hated this song, but my cousin posted on Facebook that no Christmas song should have the lyrics "Shawty with you" in it. She has a point. Actually no song in general should have the words "Shawty with you" in it. If a guy called me his "Shawty" I don't think I could ever take him seriously. Yeah I'm short, but I am no Shawty. Lol.

2) Christmastime is here again by Ringo Starr- a few years ago Bath and Body Works was selling g Christmas CDs. They were good CDs, but they happened to have this gem on it and it was so terrible I could never forget it. Basically Ringo Starr was just saying "Christmastime is here again" over and over and over again and it sounded awful. Also some random lyrics that made no sense at all were in it. I just youtubed this to make sure it was real, and apparently it's a Beatles song? It's still pretty damn awful, but again I don't like the Beatle's so I may be missing something. It's just bad you should hear it.

3) Grandma got run over by a Reindeer- seriously? What the hell were these people on when they wrote this song! 1) Santa's been driving that sleigh for quite some time now. I think he knows how to park a sleigh and to look for wild Grandma's passing the way. 2) Why are the kid and Grandpa not more upset about Grandma's death? They just seem to be excited about finding out that Santa is real.

You know on second thought, maybe this song isn't just written by someone on drugs. Maybe the writer of this song had to deal with a tragedy at Christmas time one year. Maybe he was trying to teach kids that even though it's Christmas, bad things still happen. Maybe he's trying to say that even if something tragic happens, it's okay to still believe in Santa. That's kind of deep.

It was probably just drugs, but that's a thought.

4) The Little Drummer Boy by Justin Bieber- This is one of my favorite songs for sentimental reasons. It was my great grandfathers favorite and whenever it comes on the radio my mom says that and she remembers him and it's a really nice moment. Justin Bieber completely ruined it by putting in a remix. I'm not someone easily offended by things, but this is pretty offensive. I mean the little Drummer boy played that song for Jesus when he was born. Whenever I hear the remix I always think "wow I just don't think Jesus would like that. No, that's not true, but it still seems disrespectful to a more religious song. It is catchy and stuff, but it doesn't really capture what the song is about. At ALL! lol.

5) Peppermint Winter by Owl City- holy crap Owl City is the worst band in the entire world. Okay no, I like the Oreo commercial and their song on the Wreck it Ralph soundtrack... But that's all they should do. It's like they put a bunch of winter words into a hat and picked them out at random and put them into a song. What the actual hell. It's bad. Go listen to it now. It's that bad.

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...

Throwback Thursday: The Incredibles

This is one of the more underrated movies in the Pixar Universe... thatI think is actually getting more popular now than it was back when it was released... so that's good. I think it really stands the test of time... but it still isn't one of my favorites. This movie I think is pretty cool because it was the first time Pixar really used humans. When I was little I thought "Toys, Bugs, Monsters, Fish... the next movie will be about dogs!" And I was surprised it was this! I didn't know Pixar could do that! But I guess technically its about heroes and not humans... but then Pixar began to show more humans in their world and The Pixar Theory was started... and yeah. I just kind of want to state my opinion on the Pixar Theory here too cause why not: I don't believe that Pixar set out to create this elaborate world with all the movies connected... but I do still believe it exists in some way shape of form. It all adds up and checks out... so for me... somehow t...

Rereading My Favorite Thing I Wrote In College

Hey guys! I'd say "today's post is a little different" but they're all kind of different to begin with... so this might end up being the same- or at least something that can fit into this blog in a nice way. So I don't want to post the actual thing that I wrote... but in my college Creative Writing Class that I took at 21 we needed to write a fantastical realism short story. And I wrote something that I always liked. The lead character was a smart and sassy woman... the fantastical elements were exciting and unique... and the story as a whole had a cute ending and a good message... and I really liked the way that I took what happened in my real life and changed it into this amazing and fantastical thing. Re-reading it... it was still pretty good. I actually liked the ending a little bit better because it had a nice message about believing in yourself that I kind of just snuck in there without much thought... and there was a cute little love story. I liked ...
