Updates

Greetings Earthlings,

     Just wanted to do a quick update since I haven't blogged in over a week!

Christmas was great, had a wonderful time with all my family and was especially happy to have my cousin Ashley come down from Holland for the holiday to celebrate with us. I'm going to be posting a kind of that you post to everyone who sent me lovely items for the season, so stay tuned for that!


New Year's Eve is today and I'm getting ready for some CELEBRATING!!!! So that'll be fun.

Those are really the only things happening right now, but I'm going to be blogging more often now that the holidays are over, love you guys! <3

Here is a picture of me to hold you guys over form lack of Olivia in your lives:



(P.s. my cousin Ashley has hijacked this post and would like to sat that the author is an incredibly magical young lady with many tricks up her sleeve. She likely has her own pet unicorn stashed away somewhere in her backyard, probably behind one of those big conifers. Wouldn't be surprised if she was part cyborg.)

Television Obsessions

Greetings Earthlings,

     Peoples, let's get serious, do you ever have those television shows you just can't stop watching? I do. But before I get into my current obsession, I will talk to you about previous obsessions and how I stopped being obsessed.

1. Pushing Daisies: I swear if that show was still on I would never turn the the television. It was the most amazing show ever. But it got cancelled...Grr.

2. Flash Forward: I wasn't huge on this show but it was one of those guilty pleasures I couldn't resist. It also got cancelled, and that one bothered me since it was during a crucial part of the series, whatever.

3. Glee: I liked Glee for a while, then I realized how utterly terrible that show is. I'll admit though, I do like the first season, but then I watched the episodes too many times and stuffz.

4. Castle: Castle was probably my best obsession, and I still love that show, don't get me wrong. I'm just not obsessed  any more and the reason for that is Emma. After I realized the potential amazingness of the series I introduced it to Emma, who consequently showed it to every other person she knew while I was there and I saw every episode too many times. Then I got sad, new episodes are good though.

5. Firefly: Okay, how could anyone not like Firefly? Nathan Fillion, cowboys in space? It's amazing. I got sad when it was cancelled, but happy when it was on Netflix. If you haven't seen it, I highly suggest you do.

And now for my current obsession: Community. I absolutely love it, especially the paintball episodes. They're amazing, I especially like Troy and Abed, but the cast is so strong it's hard to choose. Anyways, almost done the second season and moving on to the third! Woo!

Okay, that's everything. Maybe in the future I'll make a list of my favourite television shows!!

PS: It's Christmas eve as of 18 minutes ago! WOO!

My Post...Ft. Emma

Greetings earthlings (I believe that's how Olivia begins her posts),

It's Emma here, updating Livi's blog as she's much too lazy to be bothered to do it herself. I'm exhausted and about to g to bed, so this probably won't be very long, but I'm going to tell you about her. Every question you've ever had, ANSWERED!

Her name is Olivia. Want to know her last name? Of course you do, stalker. She's 13 going on 5 years old, with an odd compulsion/obsession over Youtubers and unicorns. Not that I can really talk about strange obsessions without being ironic, but we can save that for another day. She loves Bones, Castle, My Little Pony, and is absolutely, 100% FURIOUS at the people from the TV networks for killing Flashforward before we could all find out what the day was.
She is in love with Bobby Flay, her future husband and biffle. Just so you all know, here is the list of things she looks for in a man:
-Good cook
-Dancer
-Guitar player
-African american
-Named Bobby Flay
OR
-Sterling (who she consequently named the knight in shining armor after in her story)
She has a very  nice French accent, though neither of her parents are bilingual, as all of her French teachers comment on.
She is a Nerdfighter through and through (DFTBA!), and a total Unicorn Warrior. She dabbles in vlogging as well, so you guys could check that out. Please note that the pic of her in the "MASTERMIND" section was taken by my camera at my house when she was insane on a sugar high. Fun times, fun times.
Anyways, she's awesome and my #1 and #2 BFF.

Bai bai.
-Eem Jayo

There it is!

Tab For A Cause

Greetings Earthlings,

     So today I wanted to talk to y'all about this supermegafoxyawesomehot website I discovered called Tab For A Cause. Essentially, it's a non-profit organisation which, after quickly installing the system for free, allow you to chose a charity, and every time (or two, or four..) you open a tab, a certain amount of money is donated to the charity you chose!

     At first, I was certain there was going to be some sort of catch. Like I would get billed or spammed or get viruses after installing, but after doing more research I discovered Tab For a Cause is absolutely free. The way they make their money is with advertisements that appear each time you open the tab, and 100% of the profits from those advertisements go to the charity.

     For my charity I chose Room to Read, a charity which is described as "Room to read believes that World Change Starts with Educated Children. We envision a world in which all children can pursue a quality education that enables them to reach their full potential and contribute to their community and the world." But you can also chose such charities as Water.org, Human Rights Watch, Educate!, and so many others. 

     If you want to participate, just go to http://www.tabforacause.org/ and start making a difference! Yay!

Eat Tacos With Me?

Greetings Earthlings,

     So there's this song I really really like, it's called Sleepyhead by Passion Pit, and it's kind of a dubstep alternative indie pop song that is bursting with creativity. Here it is!


Anyways, I thought today I would talk a bit about why I love this song, and also a bit of lyric dissection, yay! Let's go!

     So, I discovered this song through my biffel Emma (Inflatable Furniture and Bubble Wrap) over the summer, and it's basically just pure amazingness. In the beginning of the song, you may think the lyrics are just high pitched non-sense, but if you listen a bit closer, I'm pretty sure the lyrics are "please unicorn, eat tacos with me". Which makes me extremely happy, because as you know I love unicorns, and mexican food. Anyways, those lyrics are not for certain, but here are the rest of the lyrics I found online:

And everything is going to the beat
And everything is going to the beat
And everything is going

And you said
It was like fire around the brim
Burning solid
Burning thin the burning rim
Like stars burning holes right through the dark
Flicking fire like saltwater into my eyes
You were one inch from the edge of this bed
I drag you back a sleepyhead, sleepyhead

They couldn't think of something to say the day you burst
With all their lions and all their might and all their thirst
They crowd your bedroom like some thoughts wearing thin
Against the walls against your rules against your skin
My beard grew down to the floor and out through the doors
Of your eyes but go in disguise like a sleepyhead, sleepyhead

     The beginning of the song I think is fairly straight forward "everything is going to the beat" I think just means they're devoted to music. And everything they do goes into the beat, and their songs. After that though, the music gets extremely confusing, I don't even know where to start there. 

     Anyways, let me know what you think of the song and the lyrics, and I'll talk to you guys soon!

DFTBA
Olivia :D
