mid afternoon snack
I haven't written in soo long. But i'm not really worried that anyone is really dying from lack of posting. i mean nobody has commented so there is no point in wishful thinking...
just keeping it real here.
anyways, i have nothing to do besides homework , which i really dont want to do...
so here i am sitting at home blogging. how special do i feel?
not very (in case you were wondering)
i have found an interesting past time though. I have taken a really big fascination in Levi's jeans commercials. they are quite possibly some of the best advertisements on television. even though i dont own a single pair of their jeans, i could watch their commercials all day. They are really great works of art.
a few of my personal favorites:
i should stop before i get to carried away
anyways i have kind of lost inspiration now for writing things and i really want to go take pictures now...
im sure you wont miss me...

yet to be titled
an original piece by me.
but it was only false hope
a mere projection onto the pavement of my life i walk upon.
a mirage created by the waves of sorrow
diffusing through the air which i breathe
as i fill my lungs with grief
quickly expelled from my weak skeletal figure, in the form
of a sigh.
such a small sound
yet packed with so much emotion beyond the boundaries
the boundaries of even my comprehension,
thoughts expelled even before i knew of their presence to begin with.
but they fall to the ground, soft as the sound from which they came.
their lives short lived as the concentrated rays of emotion strike them,
their frail figures burn before me.
i bury them with my words.
such heavy words,
but what do you expect from such heavy emotions?...©

OH MY GOD i am so sorry that i havent posted in forever...
who am i kidding, whoever actually reads this blog probably has way better things to do than read it so you probably havent even noticed that i havent posted in like a month or so...probably longer.
anyways, i've been thinking:
the world sucks
that about sums it up and its kinda hard to explain besides that...but i can try
maybe its just a vengeance against natasha, but the world seems to have it out for me. its all the little things that eventually add up, like tons of bad days filled with little things that go wrong. for example, i happen to have lost my cleats, but no worries, i wouldnt even be able to play Field Hockey at school tomorrow (not starting school yet, had to make that clear, just sports...NOT school) because my doctor didnt sign my health forms, which meant that i got my schedule late, which means that i had to order my books later, had to pay more for shipping, made my parents mad (because they arent constantly mad) which made me mad, and i couldnt fully enjoy pineapple express, and now my mom is even more pissed because every time she comes to talk to me i answer what because she was mad which made me mad! but the main point is i cant play field hockey tomorrow and i still have to wake up at 815 AM to get ready and get to the metro and then ride a bus to school. i hate the world, and the world hates me.
but as you can see, these little things cause a massive snowball chain reaction and eventually everyone just ends up pissed at each other and they keep getting even madder because when people are pissed at each other, they are rude to each other and then they get even more pissed because they are being rude, i think you get the point.
anyways, i just really need to get out of my house and go somewhere, do something. something new though
there is nothing to do here. its always the same things, with the same people at the same places. change is good people, SO MAKE SOME!
i am just so sick of everything
please, just talk to me.

hectic
things have been kinda hectic.
i have just been coming home and crashing all week, i am so tired! working with kids really drains you, but its totally worth it. so much fun.
so anyways, my life is currently pretty boring so i dont really have anything to say. oh but there is this really fun website that i love i cant decide
you type in 2 choices and then people vote while you answer 5 other peoples questions and then you get your results. you can also just vote
its so much fun and helps sometimes. and the good thing its non biased opinions from real people! not plastic toys, although never doubt the power of the magic 8 ball (that is of course until it tells you your best friend is going to come over and then they come up with an excuse and totally stand you up!) but that is neither here nor now and that never happened to me...
magic 8 ball is right about 90% of the time. its crazyy
allright i have to go take a shower, my hair is gross. then i have to get a new facebook picture and then PROJECT RUNWAY!

radio
sorry to rip you off brennan, but you sparked a thought that has been brewing for a while and you gave me an idea to write about.
so esentially, there is no good radio station out on the normal radio, XM, i dont know about but normal FM there is nothing but crap on all day.
i tend to listen to 99.5 but only for up to like 20 minutes because otherwise the same 5 songs get boring considering thats all they play.
and i am not really accepting of other peoples music taste. i can accept pop, old school rap (kind of) some hip hop, rock, jazz, a little classical, acoustic, and a few others
but the thing i do not accept is completely rap and hip hop. come on people widen your spectrum. be diverse with your music!
bands to check out:
the virgins
honeyhoney
jurassic 5
albert hammond JR
the shins
the alternate routes
rocco deluca & the burden
matt wertz
brett dennen
matt nathanson
jim gaven
tim blane
kate voegele
regina spektor
rachael yamagata
ray lamontage
jacks mannequin
forever the sickest kids
every avenue
a cursive memory
we the kings
stephen kellog & the sixers
metro station
anchorage
the fratellis
jason mraz
dave matthews band
swell season
the kooks
cold war kids
adele
and thats alot so i dont want to overwhelm you. thats a fairly small spectrum of music but i dont want to overwhelm you, so just check them out. some of them are smaller and are just starting out so support them, buy a CD
and even better some of them have concerts, even better to hear them live i bet...!
check them out

wackness
the title is in reference to the movie
its pretty decent
go see it. at the landmark in bethesda because that theater is the shit.
so anyways. i was thinking today, i wish that showing your bra was socially acceptable. i mean really how different is it than a bathing suit. it covers the same thing in basically the same way, so whats the big deal?
i mean why is it so trashy to show your bra straps or the cups of your bra?
i understand why it looks bad to show the back when you are wearing a backless dress, thats just a fashion no no. but in general, bras should be ok to show.
that is all

different
so today i finished watching lars and the real girl
great movie by the way.
but it got me thinking about how interesting it would be to know someone with a delusion of that sort. i want to know how someone views the world, how different people see things. like little kids, and people with mental illnesses. i want to get inside of peoples heads. (not in a creepy way) just to know how many different ways there are to view things out there intrigues me so much. like im working at camp, and these kids draw things so differently and talk about things in a whole different light, and they are so open, and its just crazy to think about it. like they are so new, with only a few years of life experience and to think about how they interpret things just really amazes me. i wish i could be a 5 year old again and know what they know, and see the world as they see it.
walk a mile in another persons shoes...

belated fourth
happy fourth of july
belated of course,
the best way to do it.
the only way.
i just got too wrapped up in the festivities...
and i posted a happy fourth on brennan's blog, and stupidly didnt post one on my own!
weird...
well right now im getting ready to go to a party!! yay
hooray for 3 day weekends, even though i love my kids at camp.
but i cant really think of a good topic to start off with today, so i guess ill just say something that totally ruined my day:
scientist have discovered 2 snowflakes, that are exactly alike...
...
...
...

so let that sit, think about it. its craaaazzzzyyyy

secrets
secrets are no fun unless they are shared with everyone
which is true unless its your secret....
but the rule still applies.
i just hate it when people are blatantly keeping something from you, or like whispering about something that you did while you are right there...its just rude.
this subject is kinda self explanatory and fairly dull/dead.
and im dead too
im so tired.
so im going to crash
ill write more tomorrow

back in business
hopefully i can get back into the groove of things this week in terms of posting every day. so considering its kinda late a i have a few things to do before i go to sleep im going to make this post relatively short.
movies:
so today i spent a good chunk of time watching movie trailers. there are actually a decent number of movies out relatively soon, which is a HUGE relief, considering the fact that all the movies that are currently out are complete and total shit. with the exception of Wall-E, Wanted, Get Smart...and thats all i can remember now.
but dont mess with the zohan...seriously, i heard that its so stupid its not even worth seeing. this is the not the reaction that people should be having to movies. seriously movies are a time when you can sit down and enjoy the product off someone elses work like going to an art gallery. or if you are a fan of PDA, then the movies is a dark room to make out...personally i prefer to actually watch the movies...
which brings me to my next point, movie ticket prices. $10.50 seems to be the average price
seriously!? i mean come on, for the crap that you are putting out, you cannot expect us to pay that much money for a fucking piece of cardboard paper.
this makes me mad.
back to the PDA for a moment, some people are just so outright weird/gross about it. like if you are sitting next to people, dont do it. where as if you are in the back of the theater alone, knock yourself out...but like if people can see you, and if there alot of people...thats just weird. and there are some movies where its just weird too. like horror films, really? do you really really need to hook up in that second? is it that necessary? i mean if you are into weird stuff, go to the woods or something, find a log to sit on. its private provided you dont run into any unsuspecting hikers. but also, i wouldnt want to waste $21 on movie tickets, to not even see the movie. its not worth it. its like paying $21 for a motel room where people can see you having sex...not a good deal.
recommendations:
pineapple express
choke
the other mistress
college
the wackness
boy a
garden party
diminished capacity
city of ember
eagle eye
bottle shock
mirrors
reprise
allright so my time is up for the day,
until tomorrow:
as always,
Natasha

Gah!
So again i am really sorry for not posting yesterday...i kinda just totally crashed and was having more internet malfunctions (which i solved) but yeah. i literally like slept all day yesterday. i got home from the concert after sleeping over at my cousins house, and just slept some more. but i so needed that. but anyways. so yesterday was sunday and my plan for sunday was to send you guys to postsecret. my favorite blog ever. its on the same website, just click here
it's amazing. at least in my opinion
its really eye opening for me
every week people send in their secrets on any mailable material to the address provided on the website, and every sunday about 20 secrets or so are posted on the site for the public to view. there are also books that are published with secrets that have never been seen before on the site.
for me its a really great experience to read because you can connect with some of the secrets, and it also helps you understand people more. and if your having a bad day, you can read it and realize that you are actually better off than you thought you were, or worse off, or know that at least one other person is going through the same thing that you are. and i visit it every sunday religiously. so for today, thats all i really have to say. i encourage you all to visit and read some secrets, or just sit down at the bookstore for a minute and read a few secrets. maybe even feel inspired to read one of your own.
signing off

sick day
i am sooooo sorry that i didnt post last night. but i have legitimate excuses.
1. i got to see my boyfriend yesterday for the first time in weeks (ok 15 days) so i obviously went out with him
2.i got home really late
3. my laptop had no Internet
4. i fell asleep after i discovered i had no Internet
so i've gotta make this quick because im writing it from someone elses computer. and i have to do a crapload of chores really fast because i have to leave for the Dave Matthews Band concert soon.
um, quick topic: Wall-E
the critics are right, this movie, although about piles of trash, is in no way a pile of trash. It is, dare i say touching. I definitely a must see this summer. although there is barely any dialouge till about the middle, and even then its scarce, the characters still captivate you and drag you into their little world of the future.
the only thing that i found concerning was thee portrayal of the future. not only is the world covered in trash, but people live in space, and they are MORBIDLY obese. its really gross. (i mean it would be if they werent cartoons)
allright si must be off now, again srry about yesterday, and i guess ill write tomorrow!

apparently its not friday...
so...i thought it was friday for a little bit this morning, till i got into work (camp counselor) and everybody was like "no tomorrow is an alpha day so we go to this class today" and i was like oh its not friday...
but i was also a little bit spacey because all my friends (including my boyfriend) come back from South Africa today!!! i'm so excited to have them all back. i missed you all! allright fine, i missed most of you. as we tell the children, lying is bad.
so this past week i have noticed a reoccurring theme in mine (and other peoples) conversations. and that topic is problems in society.
now this is really broad, so im just going to touch on it.
to start us off, i know its not just me who has noticed, but today, not only have the skirts of america's teenagers been getting shorter...but the skirts of america's children are getting shorter. im talking 5 year olds in miniskirts. seriously, what is wrong with that picture...so many things!
not only do they "not have anything to show off" but its just gross. i mean these kids are innocent little people who still think guys have cooties (actually...well we'll get to that in a second.) i mean when i was little i would wear leggings pulled up as high as they could possibly go. im not saying this is a good fashion statement, but consider this. i know when alot of us look back at our pictures when we were little kids, we were wearing overalls and dresses with pants underneath and t shirts that were too big, polos tucked into your jeans...you get the point, we dressed with modesty. today walking down the street or at the mall, i see little kids in mini mini skirts, tube tops, halter tops, belly shirts, i mean seriously! first of, it just looks ridiculous. i dont want to get in trouble for this but parents, what were you thinking?! look at your little girl and think, if this is what she's wearing now, then how short is her skirt going to be when shes say 16? is she even going to be wearing a shirt? or will that be just "too much fabric." i mean its gotta say something when you look at a teenager who is showing less skin than your 5 year old girl. the point being, put some leggings under that skirt, buy skorts (shorts/skirts combination) replace the tube top with a t-shirt. this look must go. onto cooties.
so remember a time when dating was something you only began to think of in 5th grade, right after you realized in 4th grade that, "hey, boys really are cute" (or girls if you are a boy or lesbian or bisexual or anything)but today...ha well today in age, im not even sure if cooties still exist...personal example, i know a 13 year old who is on his like 7th girlfriend, huh?
i may not be in the loop, but im pretty sure that none of us sophomores started dating till like 7th grade right? so today in age, by 7th grade, apparently you have had more than 5 girlfriends. not only are people dating much earlier, which consequently is not so much of a problem as the following is, but they are doing other things. 7th graders preforming blow jobs, 8th graders having sex...thats a little tooo early. i mean everyone is entitled to their own opinions and im not condoning or promoting abstinence but im just saying middle schoolers and sex do not mix. isn't anyone a virgin anymore?
next: technology. i know that i am guilty of this and i realize my bad. but today in age, there are so many ways to talk to someone that are completely artificial. whatever happened to face to face conversations. really, those are amazing. as great as texting, emailing, iming and all those other things are, face to face is always better. you can show emotions besides happy and sad, you can say things with a tone, and best of all you can touch, see, smell and all that jazz to the person you're talking to. so call your friends up and arrange a get together. go out to dinner! its really great.
also, among my faults, ipods and headphones. i am guilty of listening to my ipod on the metro, airplanes, in the car, walking...and any spare time i have. but why not try and strike up a conversation? or read a book, do a crossword puzzle? i know im going to start picking up a newspaper on my way to the subway, catch up on the news of the day, and the sudoku puzzle for brainwork. but dont block out the sounds of the earth. so one day, just take a walk and see what you hear. or sit on the subway and just listen to the chatter of people. besides, you never know what you could hear. you could hear some potentially interesting conversations. but when eavesdropping, be careful. dont be so obvious to the fact your listening. and im not saying its ok, but its not that bad because you dont know these people.
finally, why cant people take a compliment anymore. my friend brought this to my attention today. i mean why cant someone say, you are so friggin cool! without you thinking "are they hitting on me, are they crazy, do i know you?"
i mean just say thank you and be like, yeah i am cool. its a self confidence boost, somebody is complimenting you. say thank you. can't anybody just accept that some people are really genuine? i mean it is hard to believe in a world of phonies. but we are out there, and when we tell you your freakin cool, you are!
ok i feel like that's enough for today, in fact it may be a little too much.
as always, comments appreciated!
till tomorrow

and on the second day god said...
ok, just so we are clear to begin with, my personal opinions on religion: God is someone that you blame your fortune or misfortune on. although i cant take credit for that idea. I would like to credit my friend Brennan wrote this essay about it, and it got me thinking about it. so here it is for your own reading pleasure:
God is an idea, he only exists as a thought, an intangible being and a state of mind that assists those who are open to it. The tangibility of God resembles a solar black hole, not the purpose of the black hole destroying matter but the idea of one. The sun, as with all the stars in the Milky Way galaxy, is thought to be orbiting a black hole because they are so dense, even though black holes are miniscule, almost nothing in size, and are only discussed in theory. God, in the same way creates an orbital attraction. Much like black holes, Hod only exsists as an idea and is only discussed in theory. A black hole is an intangible force that underlines all matter, and it has the most gravitational pull of anything known to man. God underlines all believers' emotions, and belief in God indirectly dictates all humans' actions.
Matter that is sucked into a black hole is distorted and loses all idea of time and it is believed to enter infinity. Much like black hole, the idea of a God distorts humans in both a good way and a bad way. For example, violence in the Middle East is a result from the idea of a God, and the promises that were made far in the past. Or the instinctual idea that humans have a right and wrong. God does not have control over all creation, but that illusion is created upon having something to blame when the unexpected happens, or something to praise when good happens. If anything, God is the idea a d human manifestation of all that is good in this world.
and if you want to check out his blog for some of his other writing: double click
so i apologize in advance for todays entry, its going to be slightly on the boring side. i'm just having a few personal problems. i'm not going to indulge because
a. they are personal
b. talking about other peoples problems is what got me in this predicament in the first place
so lets see...today i feel like talking about youtube.
why?
i really have no idea, i was just thinking about it as i was riding the metro because well, i have nothing better to do on the metro.
YOUTUBE.COM: swivel chair potatoes
Youtube.com, one of the newest (i could be lying, i dont remember how long its been around) forms of mind-numbing vegging. I myself find that i sit in front of the TV for endless hours, its really a nasty habbit. but youtube...my main question is, how do people find these funny videos. i mean really there are only a hand full of quality comedy videos. but not even. some of them are just that weird kind of comedy that you find yourself laughing at even though it really is not funny at all. personally, i do not spend my free time looking for funny youtube videos. the only useful purpose that youtube serves are the following:
-if you missed a TV show, in the next few hours, look for it on youtube...chances are you may find it
-songs. music videos, or just music...if you cant afford to buy it, just youtube it. also just as effective is www.last.fm but not all artists are on there, but check the site out anyways
-scenes from movies that you just cant live without watching 100 times
-reviewing commercials if you are a real marketing ploy buff
-uploading a video for a school project
-checking up on what in the world is miley and mandy are up to on their webshow now while they are...lets say not themselves
and thats about it
under no circumstances is it acceptable to sit at your computer for hours looking for the most hilarious youtube video you can find. i know that there are MUCH better things for you to be doing...heres a thought, go outside! fresh air, nature,elements, its good stuff.
but seriously people, read a book, hang out with people...anything but veg at your computer.
allright, since i have bashed youtube for the past paragraph, maybe i should say a few good words about it.
youtube is a good networking sight in which normal people like you and me can have a chance to get their word out there on the world wide web. web shows, movie reviews, or just silly things, everyone deserves their 15 minutes of fame, and youtube is the place to do it. so grab your video camera, grab your friends and get out there on the internet to put your two cents in!
that is all the good things
so i guess its time for video listings:
truth:people have different senses of humor. what i find funny, may not be funny to you. so do not, i repeat do not, blame me if these videos are not funny
allright, my personal favorites:
elmo's world behind the scenes, satan pooh, the miley and mandy show (its not funny, or good, its just interesting to watch them make total fools of themselves on the internet), blood, charlie bit my finger, he's gonna kick my ass, baltimore cop strikes again, mahna mahna (the muppets), select episodes of smosh, jesus singing i will survive,akhmed the dead terrorist, can i have yo number, worst movie lines ever, and that is all.
unacceptable videos: (these videos are not funny...at all)
candy mountain and ANY video from this series of charlie the unicorn and his friends. also, leave all the charlie's in the world alone. next time before you start quoting candy mountain, think "i wonder how many times she/he has heard this...does it annoy her/him"
this advice also applies to charlie bit my finger. i am guilty of this crime in the case of charlie bit my finger, but i have learned my lesson.
the miley and mandy show. i know i put this under acceptable videos, but truly this show is horrible. i have seen one episode and i barely made it through. not only is it ridiculously long for a show of that quality, but its stupid.
so basically the moral of the blog post is: don't spend all day looking for youtube videos, because that is such a HUGE waste of time.
i highly doubt anyone is reading this, but if you are...
what are your opinions on todays subject of youtube?
and also, if you have any particularly funny videos that you would like to share, or if you have a video that you have made, send me the link and ill post them!
and if you are reading: thank you!
i really appreciate it you guys!

Day 1
Tuesday June 24, 2008
Hello readers! (and Brennan)
First blog post...very exciting stuff.
So, since it is the first post, I thought that i would establish the purpose or the intentions of this blog, until I realized that i have yet to decide either of those. But worry not, its only the first post, we have plenty of time for that.
I am going to try my hardest to post every day (even if its just a short sentence of two) and hopefully, you guys will come back every day to read it.
I have high hopes for myself and this blog.
So anyways, i guess today i'll tell you a little bit about me to start off this relationship. (ha)
So, here it goes:
Hi, i'm Natasha but you can call me Nats if you want. At the current time, im 15 years old. That horrible age where you are too young to be fully independent, (no drivers license, no rated R movies...etc) but too old for kids stuff. Although who does not enjoy a good playground? I know i do, even thought the majority of the things are too small, and all the parents and nannies stare at you.
Truths: im afraid of escalators and falling, im short, im hispanic (not mexican damn it), im a girl, i dont like you use capital letters (it took a lot of effort in the above paragraphs), i text too much, im an artist and a writer (or at least claim to be, your comments will tell all), i play the piano and i have played for a decade, im going into 10th grade (my school is a secret. if i told you i would have to kill you), i like concerts, live music is the best, especially any combination of acoustic, alternative, indie, rock, folk, and pop, i like to read but i also watch way to much TV, i am a fashionista and have wayyy to much clothes and wayy to many shoes (about 50 pairs at last estimation), i have no favorite anything, just a select few things that i like alot,i am allergic to every plant that gives off pollen and cats, i am currently employed as a camp counselor and loving every minute of it, i have no set career path for myself but i have ideas (anthropologist, 1st grade or kindergarten teacher, journalist, or designer/photographer), im from DC and thats where i still am, and i am under no circumstances, a normal teenage girl.
so thats me in a nutshell, or more. maybe thats a coconut shell, or something larger because i feel like that was alot. congratulations if you made it through that.
i feel like this is sufficient, at least for today, and i also have to go make my lunch for work tomorrow.
Whoever is reading this, comment! please. or email me, whatever floats your boat. tell me what you want to hear, what you want to see on the blog! reader input is an amazing thing. seriously.
signing off,
Natasha
