my favourite things remix.

In light of 2008 being over, I thought a classic song was in order. However, it needs a little update.

Layoffs of workers with frowns on their faces

Wall Street is crashing and losing its bases

Murders and scandals; the hate that they bring

These are a few of my favorite things!

U.S. elections and money restricted

Death counts much higher than they predicted

The war in Iraq could be just for bling-bling

These are a few of my favorite things!

Gas prices soar and then they fall lower

Canada's government mows itself over

Gas is so cheap that it makes us all sing

So who really cares about global warm-ing!?

When the dog bites...

When the clap stings...

When I'm feeling sad.....

I simply remember my favorite things

And then I don't feel......... soooooo baaaaad!

everybody's looking at you like they want to go home with you

...And just like that, Christmas '08 is another memory.

I think mine went pretty well overall. Lots of visiting, lots of food, and lots of evil spirits surrounding the scale. I seriously over-ate, and walking up the flight of stairs just proved how much crap is now inside my body. "Santa" treated me well, I got everything i wanted... PLUS A TINY TOONS SEASON 1 DVD [I never even knew it existed!] I was so obsessed with Tiny Toons when I was younger, like it was seriously an unhealthy obsession. And, now, I can re-live my past obsessions and enjoy the company of nostalgia for a bit.


Speaking of nostalgia, Christmas at my nonna's house sparked a lot of it. See, when I was little, me and my two cousins would always have so much fun together. We'd "sneak away" from the table by crawling under it, dodging all the grown-ups legs, and going into the living room and playing tag or house. We'd always have so much fun, wherever we were. But, now, it's changed. The whole time we were sitting at the table letting the awkward silence take it's toll on us, and just listening to what the people at the other end of the table were talking about. Sometimes, we'd speak a word or two to each other, but most of the time it was either eavesdropping, or hearing the annoying clicks of their cellphone buttons while they were texting their friends. Even though I'm cellphoneless, really? Do they really feel the need to bring their cellphones with them to the dinner table? Let alone, the Christmas dinner table? And text their friends every two seconds? I think that's the major barrier between them and me. Those cellphones. And the fact that they're all like "Ooh, Hollister, Abercrombie & Bitch = <3">Anyways, right now I'm chugging down chamomile tea, loaded with honey. I'm starting to lose my voice yet again. Can there ever be a day when I'm not sick with something?! But I'm not complaining...

let it reindeer

*in Dr.Nick voice*

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY

I'm kind of tight for time here, as I'm about to head to my nonna's [grandma in italian] house for another 12 course meal. I'll update on my festivities probably later on tonight or tomorrow morning.

Until then, enjoy the musical stylings of pre-pubescent kids.

"I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
No crocodiles, no rhinoceroses
I only like hippopotamuses
And hippopotamuses like me too"

...Hippopotamuses? Is that even a word?

prodigy

wonder if i can adopt at 16?

btw...
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVE TO ALL, AND TO ALL A GOODNIGHT

christmas?

I finally feel myself getting into the Christmas spirit this year. After spending close to $200 on gifts (a ridiculous amount of money to me, considering i'm unemployed), and countless hours on paintings and other projects, I can say that I'm finally feeling good about admitting that we are currently in the midst of the holiday season. I'm usually in denial around this time, but this is an especially good year for me.
I'm beginning to notice the "holiday backlash" though. Remember how the past few years haven't been "Christmas," but "the holidays" instead? Well, every chain store (mostly Wal-Mart) seems to be giving that idea a huge FUCK YOU by having Christmas-themed everything. No other winter holiday seems to be even casually mentioned. It's weird.

I saw this youtube video, and it kinda correlates to what i'm saying

just a slight problem

either that, or i'm picturing you naked

killing your brain cells one by one

Hey, kiddies.
Guess what time it is!...Maybe time for a cynical, pessimistic note?
Just maybe. Whatever pops into my head will do.
I'll try not to make it sound so negative.
However, I can guarantee you that this blog is dripping with sarcasm.

...Waiting...
Still waiting...
MY FREAKIN' GOSH. I HAVE THE BIGGEST BRAINFART IN THE WORLD.

Here are some things that have been going through my head (some from childhood, some from right now.)
1. Do ants pee and poo?
2. How do giraffes get it on (As in, "Oh baby") ?
3. What are moles made out of, and is it true that if you try to scratch it off (or do something of the sort to it.), you will get cancer?
4. Why is the birds-and-the-bees talk called...the "Birds and the Bees" talk?
5. If you are pregnant with more than triplets, will your stomach be all stretched out and stuff?
6. Why do some superheroes wear capes and underwear over their pants? That's not heroic!
7. Is Mariah Carey really human? I mean, how does she make her voice so high-pitched like that? (BESIDES HAVING A COUPLE DOZEN OCTAVES MORE THAN EVERYONE ELSE.)
8. Why are "shit", "bitch", "fuck" considered bad words? They're just synonyms for crappendoodle, canine with a vagina, and sexytime.
9. When guys are castrated, where does the castrationisthingy person put the...y'know...the stuff...? (Hopefully not in a common garbage can. Whatif someone else opens it?)
10. Who found out that you can obtain milk from squeezing a cow's udder? I mean, that person must have been extremely bored to just go up to a cow and start squeezing away. (PEE-ESS. Sexual harrassment.)
11. What's so good about smoking?
12. Are snakes slimy?
13. Why do people insist on saying "Can I ask you a question?" WHAT THE BLOODY HELL DO YOU THINK YOU JUST BLOODY ASKED?
14. How do you properly use chopsticks?!

Okay, I believe I have somewhat lost my sarcastic touch.

Here's a dumb moment I had:
So I was checking out this band's page, to look for their concert dates.
For some reason, the date that I had in my head was April 51st.
After not finding a concert in Toronto on the 51st, I freaked out and told my friend.
...Yeah, totally pointless.

"BITCH I LIVE IN A FUCKING TRASH CAN!"

Grab some popcorn and cuddle up for 3 minutes.
