I also really don't like Fun's "We Are Young" or Avicii's "Levels." I like the bass drop in Levels but for some reason the 'chorus' that repeats in the entire song annoys the hell out of me.
John Carter was an amazing movie. I don't care what anyone says. I don't care how poorly it did at the box office. It was fantastic. But the thought crossed my mind that it would never get a sequel which I would love. I thought that since they lost close to $200 million on it. Why would they make a sequel to a movie that did so poorly and no one saw? Then again there are 3 Open Season movies so...there's hope.
I watched M83's music video fro Midnight City for the first time and I absolutely loved it. It's really amazing how a music video can tell a story so well without having to literally tell it in just a matter of 4 minutes. There's a plot, rising action, climax, and conclusion without without saying a single word about what's going on in the video and it's just the video with the song playing over it. That's what I love and miss about music videos. That's why VH1 and MTV need to play music videos instead of Jersey Shore. Wanna know what I want to do whenever I'm sitting with someone who likes and talks about Jersey Shore?
(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻ TABLE FLIP!
On a side note, I've always wanted to do that. If I ever lose an argument, a game, or something else, I just want to flip the table as I jump up and leave. Just walk away. It needs to happen.
WFNX is going off the air :( They sold themselves to the devil. The devil's name is ClearChannel. They couldn't afford to keep the station going so they laid off employees and they are going to turn into a different station. WFNX is no more. ClearChannel owns 800+ radio stations across the country including Kiss 108, Jamn 94.5, and two AM Boston stations. This is blasphemy. I'm so upset. Allie introduced me to to WFNX two years ago and I fell in love with it. Adam XII's final broadcast was really sad to listen to :( After he said his farewell he made sure he responded to every single supportive tweet, status or wall post he received either by liking them, retweeting them, or personally responding to them. I posted a status and tweeted him and he liked my status and tweeted me back. That is a class act, and it shows how much we, the FNX listeners, care about our radio and how much we loved Adam XII and how much he cares for his fans. The situation with FNX as a whole, not just with the individual DJs, is very tragic and the outreach of the fans has been overwhelming so I've seen. All I have left to listen to on the radio is WAAF and Rock 101. I don't listen to anything else. It's where I go to listen to new songs that no other radio station has for at least 3 months. It's very sad and I'm gonna miss it, especially because they are rumored to be going from awesome Alternative to country, Spanish speaking, or even talk radio. Rest in peace, WFNX. We'll miss you.
So this is huge news, but everyone already knows about it because it's 3-week old news, but I got two puppies! Their names are Zach and Charlie, Labrador/retriever mixes, 17 weeks old! I'll add pictures at the bottom if anyone hasn't seen them. They're growing really fast and have grown a lot. Zach, the Golden Retriever looking one is a lot calmer than charlie, the Lab looking one. Zach is definitely going to be a lap dog even when he's 100 pounds while Charlie is always going to be the troublemaker who always purposely gets himself in trouble just for the attention. Both of them are great dogs, they get along great, and I'm so happy we have them. There's never a dull moment in the house as long as they're running around. They're honestly really well trained even though they still have quite a few accidents around the house. They know that they're supposed to go out if they need to go, but sometimes they don't. They do know commands like come, sit, and stay and they're starting to learn their names, our names, and they get super excited and come running as fast as possible if they ever hear the word "treat." Over this past weekend my parents were away from Friday - Tuesday and I was pretty much the only one who took care of them, even with working 8 hour work days almost everyday. I was the one who fed them, took them out, gave them water and gave them a quick bath with Allie's help and overall, even though it was a lot of exhausting work, it was actually a bonding experience believe it or not. I feel like Zach and Charlie trust me more, like me more, and know me better now. Since my parents came home, there have been times where they'll both be calling them telling them to come or sit, and they'll ignore them and just run into my room just to see if I'm there and basically say hello. It's adorable and I really like knowing they like me.
Why does How I Met Your Mother always have sad season finale endings? It depresses the hell out of me.
The zombie apocalypse is happening. The CDC denies the existence of zombies but that just adds to the drama. Government conspiracy and CDC cover up. This is what we've all been waiting for. A naked man in Miami decided to eat a homeless man's face. After being shot he didn't even respond and continued to eat the man's face. He was finally shot enough times, after not even acknowledging the cop's orders, let alone his/her existance, he finally stayed down.
Zombies.
A 21 year old man admitted to killing his roommate and eating his heart and part of his brain.
Zombies.
A woman dismembered and decapitated her 3 1/2 week old baby with two knives and a sword, then ate her baby. After, she claimed it was an accident.
Lying zombies.
A man in New Jersey with a history of psychiatric issues, stabbed himself 44 times, took his intestines out and threw them at the police after barricading himself in his home.
Crazy zombies.
A toddler in Brazil passed away. Doctors had pronounced him dead. (I think you know where this is going.) During the funeral that day or the next day, I don't remember which, he sat up in the casket, asked for "some water" then laid back down and died again. People were screaming, they delayed the funeral, called in doctors to check him out thinking this was an act of God and a miracle, but doctors only scratched their heads and pronounced him dead...again.
Toddler zombies.
My years of zombie killing training are about to pay off! I think that everyone has dreamed of this, secretly or not. Who doesn't want to mow down a few zombies? I know that my fun games of Call of Duty zombies had a purpose.
Zombies.
You're welcome
I've been listening to Halo music a TON lately. Halo themes, Halo dubstep, Halo soundtracks. One Final Effort is an amazing song. It's from either Halo 2 or 3 but it's fantastic. Definitely one of my new pump-up songs along with this:
I heard this on the radio actually. I didn't think dubstep would ever be on the radio but I found out that it's from a UMass Lowell station. Every Wednesday I listen to Drop Beats Not Bombs which is an all techno/dubstep show on the UML station. They play a lot of nerdy songs like Pokemon songs straight from the old gameboy games and I look forward to it every Wednesday. Dubstep on the radio instantly gets the Official Nick Garrity Stamp of Approval. Only a few things get the coveted Official Nick Garrity Stamp of Approval. These include WFNX, dubstep, and Mountain Dew Coolattas.
E3 was this week! It was totally completely awes...oh wait it was kind of disappointing. I was hoping for more unannounced games like Watch_Dogs that are completely new and not sequels. I want NEW! I want FRESH! That's why I was looking forward to Nintendo giving more information about the Wii U. Although I knew that they would probably announce Mario games which isn't new, the console itself is completely different so I had my hopes up. They didn't announce much about the Wii U other than the fact that it'll have the Miiverse or Mii Universe, like a PlayStation Network or Xbox Live where we can communicate with friends about games and such. Welcome to 2005, Nintendo! *sigh* I guess I'll wait for more new announcements on the console...
Kris came back to Nashua a few days ago, so the genius that is Kevin Le wanted to throw a surprise welcome home party for him. We all waited silently in the basement until Kevin Le brought him downstairs. We all yelled something different. I yelled "Surprise!" but I think I heard "Mozotov!" "It's a boy!" and "Happy D-Day!" too... it was awkward. Hence the name of the Facebook group "Kris's Awkward Party, Don't Tell Kris!" We even had a cake saying "Well this is awkward..." but it was a ton of fun, and it was really great to hang with the whole gang again.
I've been hearing "No Rain" by Blind Melon constantly. I used to hate it for some reason but hearing it at work at Home Depot (I work at Home Depot now, I like it a lot) and hearing it on the radio almost every day has made me love it. I find myself snapping my fingers along with it and humming along. It's catchy as the plague and I love it. (The song, not the plague. The plague gets the Official Nick Garrity Sad Face of Disapproval)
My biggest pet peeve: people interrupting me when I am talking. Just as a warning, if you ever interrupt me, I will probably have a murderous look on my face, aimed towards you. I don't care who does it, it pisses me off to no end. I have a thought that I am saying, please please please let me finish. I know that whatever I'm saying may spark a thought in your head but I beg you, please wait one god damn second to let me finish my sentence. That's it. I feel bad but Allie does it all the time and I get pissed. Not at her, I can't stay mad at her even if I tried, but I get mad at the fact that I was interrupted mid-sentence. She always thinks I'm mad at her but it was because I just want to finish my thought, no matter how important or stupid it is.
I keep getting Facebook requests for Mafia Wars. I quit that waste of my life that I called a game years ago, but I still get notifications for it. I didn't spend much time on there. Kris and I only got to around level 475, more or less. Is that bad? I can't get hooked on that game again. I refuse. No. It can't happen. No.
Honestly, I really like my blog. I like how I balance my writing (not just how I write once a month basically) but what I write about specifically. I like how some things I post specifically to Facebook, some things just to Twitter, and I like to bring a little bit of everything here. I like writing about some things only on the blog just because I have room to expand my thoughts and say practically whatever I want with some limitations of trying not to insult anyone. Anything I say on Facebook and Twitter I like to bring here to write more about it rather than repeat my status or tweet. I just think that writing for this blog is a good way to express myself and what's going on in my life without just tweeting or updating my status constantly. I don't know what else to say other than I prefer how this is more story-telling for me rather than posting a 2 sentence tweet or status.
Hey. You're face. I like it. It get's the Official Nick Garrity Stamp of Approval.
