Jar of Hearts

Here is my cover. You're welcome Nathan.

Jar of Hearts - Christina Perri:




I did two and I liked the second one better, but for some reason my camera killed it, and when it uploaded it didn't have any sound.So you're stuck with the moderately worse one. Whateves.You can hear some sickness in my voice, but I don't even care.

I also came home today and Photoshopped my heart out! I hope you like the new background. I like it a lot better then the last one.

And final note: HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMY POEHLER! As you guys know, I am a huge fan. Parks and Recreation is starting up next Thursday and I am beyond excited. I missed TV so much, even though it never really left.

Community

The best part of any show is the unlikely friendships. In 30 Rock you have Jack and Liz, in Parks and Recreation you have Leslie and Ben, in Chuck you have Casey and Morgan. Every show has them.

I started watching Community. I'm only 8 episodes in, but I only started watching tonight. It's a pretty good show so far. I started watching it because it's on at 8 on Thursdays on NBC. Now my Thursdays can start at 8 instead of 8:30. I think for the future.

Community is about people attending a community collage. The cast is so diverse, which leads to so many unlikely friendships. You have the sassy black lady who is friends with the young overachieving white girl who is friends with a football star who is friends with a TV obsessed guy who is friends with a creepy old man who is friends with a charismatic lawyer who is friends with a girl named Britta, like the filter. Together they make their Spanish study group.

It's a funny show. I have a weird sense of humor. I usually like smart funny with a shit load of satire. I like flashbacks, and one-liners, and snappy comebacks. I was thinking about how I can go a whole movie or show without actually laughing out loud, but still find it funny. Is that normal? I don't laugh at a lot of things it seems. Like YouTube. I almost never actually laugh at YouTube videos, but I will still find it funny and worth watching.

I also have the ability to watch the same episode of a show, or a movie, or read a book, over and over again. Like, my favourite episode of 30 Rock is called Retreat to Move Forward. I watched it again yesterday. I have seen it like 10 times and it doesn't bother me that I can say the lines with the characters, if anything, it makes it more enjoyable. That goes for any show. Flu Season is my favourite Parks and Recreation episode, I also watched it again yesterday. I have seen it like 10 times too. I would watch the both again today.

The more I watch something, the more I like it. I don't care if I know what happens. You just enjoy it in the moment.



I just learned that Late Night with Jimmy Fallon will not be new for two weeks. TWO FULL WEEKS WILL NO JIMMY.


Pictures show my emotions. I hope you like them. Now, back to more Community and SNL.

Parks and Recreation

I decided to re-watch the wonderful show titled Parks and Recreation. If you haven't watched it, go do that now.
It stars one of my favourite people, Amy Poehler.

This is why I love this show.

I love how it could be real life. Like The Office it is a 'mocumentary', but instead of office life it focuses on small town government. And as you know, 30 Rock is the best show ever, but a lot of crazy shit happens on that show that's hilarious, but very unlikely. With a mocumentary you get people with unrealistic personalities in everyday situations.

With it staying light out for long I keep getting messed up about the time! I thought it was like 6, but it's like 8. I hate that. If the times name was Ann, it would probably go down something like this:

I also love the casual use of fuck. Obviously they bleep it, but it just adds to the normal aspect. Adults working in government are going to say the f-bomb from time to time. I'm all about casual fuck. You took that the wrong way, didn't you?

Drive My Soul

It's still Thursday! I'm sorry you had to wait so long for this... *cricket sounds*

This wonderful Thursday I decided to do this song because I like it. I've been listening to Lights lately and I think this is my favourite Lights song. I think it sounds good acoustic, so I owned this cover, like a boss. (See what I did there?)


Drive My Soul - Lights


(Now uploading from YouTube.)


So, today was just awesome. It had a lot to do from 8-11pm. The Vampire Diaries is kind of stupid though. But I cried during The Office: "Don't leave Michael!". I fell in love during Parks and Recreation: "Ben and Leslie! *heart hands*". And I just died out of sheer joy from one hour 30 Rock! *Walks into living room* "Did you guys hear? ONE HOUR 30 ROCK!" *Walks back into bedroom*.

Though I am 'tired as fuck'. Does anyone else not understand that? How is fuck a comparison word to tired? (Don't answer that perv.) On this happy note, Happy Easter! TTYL BFF'S!

(And for the record, Tina Fey uses the word fuck casually in her book, so I'm going to use it casually here.)

We'll Be A Deam

So, I decided I'm going to do a cover every Thursday of a random song. 




It's not because I think I'm an amazing singer or guitarist, I just love to do both, so why the heck not! It will just make me commit to something.
Plus, Thursdays are the best days ever! New The Office, Parks and Recreation and 30 Rock tonight! Just throwing that out there...

Waiting

One of my biggest pet peeves is when a show you look forward to watching every week isn't on or isn't new. I have a very specific weekly calendar that I follow religiously when it comes to my shows...

Monday: Chuck
Tuesday: Glee
Wednesday: Shedding for the Wedding
Thursday: The Vampire Diaries, The Office, Parks and Recreation, 30 Rock
Friday: CSI:NY
Saturday: Saturday Night Live
Sunday: The Simpsons, Family Guy

All day I look forward to the complicated plot twists, building relationships and unexpected incidents that I adore so much. It really makes me upset when I go to watch my show and I find out it's an old episode. I understand that happens sometimes but into further investigation they won't be new again for weeks, it really puts a damper on that day for weeks to come.

Waiting is a horrible part of life. The only comfort is that no matter what, time still moves forward, it cannot move any slower, or any faster for that matter.
