Throwback Thursday: Here it Goes Again by OK GO Music Video

So... there's a bit of a prologue as to why I decided to watch this video for Throwback Thursday... but I did...

Here is the link to the OK Go video in case you're like me and have never seen it!

Prologue 
You guys know I love Crazy Ex Girlfriend and I've been watching that a lot lately and listening to all the music videos. Well there's a song called Thought Bubbles in which Josh freaks out at being alone and thinks of every bad thought he can think of and every doubt he has. It's a really clever song, it's one of my favorites from the show. It's a laid back Smash Mouth type of song about a guy freaking out about every little thing. And it's just really funny. He mentions things being "complex like videos from OK Go" and I was like "Hmmm... never really saw that video as complex. I'll have to watch it sometime."

Flash forward several weeks later... I started liking Britney Spears out of no where... that's where last week's Throwback Thursday came from... and then I had thought bubbles similar to Josh Chans "I used to like guacamole now I don't like guacamole. What if I stop liking other things too. Like what if I stop liking my mom. If it worked on guacamole it could work on my mom." So now I'm like "ohhh no! What's going to happen now that I like Britney Spears?"

And Now The Review... 

 So it is sort of a complex video I guess... it looks very simple and cheap and there's really just the guys on the treadmills aspect of it... but it is a complicated routine to do I guess... so maybe it's just that... but you can start seeing layers to the song with the video too.

Like they get off the treadmill when they say "You've hit a curb" and they keep moving in the same direction when they talk about monotony and I think they say things are perpetual... like the treadmill.

Plus they're 4 guys and the 2 guys look pretty much alike and the other 2 guys look sort of similar too so it's like a mirror image... and the band is called OK GO and there are just 4 guys on these treadmills and it's like someone said "Ok go!" And they just started doing this dance that went perfectly with the song and it all just worked really well.

So yeah... I was never the biggest fan of the song to be honest... and thankfully I'm still not really that big a fan... but I will agree with Josh Chan... it is kind of complex like my thoughts. Lol.

Let's just hope I still like Britney Spears and don't like OK Go by the time this blog is posted... because it might not work that way.

Byeee!

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 ...
