Day 39: Bidi Bidi Bom Bom

Thursday, March 10, 2011:

Late at night when all the world is sleeping, I stay up and watch movies. Tonight it was Selena. I remember my best friend from across the street, Stephanie, would come to my house every day and we'd lock ourselves in my room and sing and dance to her CD. Especially this song.

Day 38: Burning Down the House

Wednesday, March 9, 2011:

 Today I went out with my mom to my favourite place to eat, Red Robin. Yes, I am a cheap date. You will win me over with Red Robin burger and fries (and the smoothies! Mmm.). While we sat there talking and laughing a bit. This song came on the radio and I did my usual burst into dance and sing along. I guess you could say I'm not a classy date either. Love this song.

Day 37: Viridian City

Tuesday, March 8, 2011:

Today, I'll bring out the nerd in me a little more. As some of you fellow nerds may know, the new Pokemon Black and White just came out this Sunday. I've been looking forward to this game for a while now. Due to me constantly burying myself in more social things, I've yet to play it until today. Every time I hit a route to another town, I can't help but sing a song from a Pokemon soundtrack I got when the original 150 came out. I kept singing "Viridian City". It's completely wrong! I haven't been on the road to Viridian City in years. I'm so out of date. I'm a Pallet towner from Kanto... such a nerd.

Day 36: Blue Monday

Monday, March 7, 2011:

This song is from quite possibly my favourite artist. I discovered their existence them a month or two ago. Today, after not eating for over 48 hours, I went out with my friend, Danielle, to get some food. We went to the store and walked out with velveeta macaroni, gushers, and blue jello. I know, it's a very random combination, but due to our stomachs not feeling right probably due to lack of sleep and substantial substances in our stomachs, it was all we could handle. The most satisfying bit of what we bought was the blue jello. Which brings me to the song of the day.

Like I said, they may just be my favourite artist. I highly suggest you check out their stuff. They are mind blowing.

Day 35: The Green Grass Grows All Around

Sunday, March 6, 2011:

So it has been a long past few days. For some reason, I keep singing this song. Maybe if I put it as a song of the day, it will stop being stuck in my head.

Day 34: Hello

Saturday, March 5, 2011:

Today was insane. So I was finally going to put my red and white outfit that I've been dying to wear to use. My friends and I have been planning on going to this trance/dubstep event in San Francisco. We get there and we find that the date on the flyer was wrong and the event was actually last night. (Shit!) So we drive around for hours trying to find a club or something of the dancing sort since we're in the city and already dressed up. Every place we went to didn't seem worth it (is it just me or are a lot of clubbing people crabby?). We did end up finding a party in the city in the end and having a grand old time, but what a crazy and unexpected adventure. We spent many hours in that car with a mix CD that my friend, Max, prepared for us especially for this trip. If you haven't guessed already, that CD was played over and over again so I got really familiar with the songs. This being my favourite.

Day 33: My Clock Explodes

Friday, March 4, 2011:

Tonight I was out with friends for our regular weekly gathering. Sometime into the night and I noticed that when I was talking, my voice began to crack and become raspy. The rasp increased as the night went on. This brought up the discussion about how raspy voices can sometimes be quite attractive (not the type of raspy I'm having. I just sounded sick.). Then I brought up Olive's voice, from the band Aeon Now as an example of said attractive voice. I pulled out my handy dandy smart phone and played this video.


My Clock Explodes by Aeon Now



I saw them perform live a couple times in Berkeley about a year ago. After their first show, I was instantly intrigued. I didn't want to lose sight of their progress. Check them out! They will be going on their "Clockwise Tour" this year so if they end up in your area, do go out and see them.

OH HAYYY!
 They're on my "Artists I Support" list.
