I have a long wonderment with the world of advertising. Love and hate it for being such a huge part of modern society.
I appreciate beautiful advertisements and this one is especially adorable.

The original is super good, but the remix makes finals week feel like a party. Well, nothing can make finals week feel like a party but this was close.
I have three more classes and then I am done with this semester! It has been one of the most boring months of my life, I'm ready for Christmas adventures!!! Cabins in the woods here I come!

Gemma Correll is my favorite!

Lyrics No Music

Hopefully I will get this little song recorded some time so my 34 fans can hear it but mostly because it will force me to create more than just a melody and lyrics but something to go along with it. This song shows the Alaskan in me, I think. It is really hilarious to change the lyrics for lawyer... a late night at the office, then he will come home to me, tired from paperwork, he will smell like a sub that he ate for lunch, he will grumble and state his case... well that wasn't really hilarious but I imagine a plumber version could be quite funny. 


A fisherman's wife is what I'd like to be,

Away from the hustle and bustle just sea.

A fisherman's wife is what I'd like to be,

nothing much more for me, please.

His nights late at sea,

then he will come home to me,

weathered from the wind,

he will smell like the fish and salt from the air,

he will smile and tell his tale.

A fisherman's wife is what I'd like to be,

Away from the hustle and bustle just sea.

A fisherman's wife is what I'd like to be,

nothing much more for me, please.

We will have a life much smaller than most,

with fish and bread and tea.

Oats in the morning for strength for the day,

we will glance at each other and I'll smile and say. 

A fisherman's wife is what I like to be,

Away from the hustle and bustle just sea.

A fisherman's wife is what I  like to be,

nothing much more for me, please.

I know everyone loves to hate pop but this was pretty sweet. 2013 mashup by Daniel Kim.

Sleep doesn't come

Sometimes sleep feels like an achievement, tonight I have been unable to obtain it. I think I have thought about almost everything: the regulars at the restaurant I work at, my up coming commemorative speech that I don't want to be cheesy, the blazer I thrifted today that needs shoulder pad removal surgery, how watching football with my dad has been going, how big my room is and the roommates/best friends I miss, about the weirdness of high school, if running makes me unable to fall asleep...and on and on. 

My brain feels kinda like this nasty pond in Yoyogi Park, Tokyo. 

 

Rant

Carrie Underwood as Maria in Sound of Music
I'm upset... I'm pretty sure many a broadway hopeful would be a better cast choice.
The person who clogged the radio with Before He Cheats, is going to be Maria!? Oh and there is that song Last Name which we all wished we couldn't remember. Maria with a southern accent.

There is a bright side! It is the play version, recorded live for TV. So it isn't a movie, and will probably stay small and hopefully the children will still love Julie Andrews.

end rant.
