Blahhhhhhhging

So this post is extra spectacular. Why, you might ask? Well.
Well, well, well. Let me tell you!

We're both sitting right here. Yeah.

Epic. Soo0Ooo0oO0ooOo0 epic. What a win.
This post is going to be FUCKING EPIC. And I really don't swear that much. Except lately I have. Not really.

But to explain the picture.
It doesn't need one. If you can't appreciate it then obviously you aren't a tattooed, organic-coffee drinking, macbook owning, kerouac-quoting thrift store feind hipster the shit.

But we're here together watching bollywood and oh my goodness we have to blog.

This evening we have been sitting around sharing fun things we have found on the internet. Good times.
We would like to share with the sophisticated connoisseurs on the interweb our bourgeois taste and impeccable flare for all things eurotra$h and glam. Here are some things we like.

The Suicide of Frida Kahlo- Trek Thunder Kelly 2004

Raphael Just

We're just going to assume that everyone has winter cottages in Torino to ski in the alps, and therefore speak Italian (which you should have learned in Cotillion if not). It is also assumed that you know the proper way to squeeze a lemon and to introduce a younger person to an elder.

So it's late and we have a concert to attend to tomorrow. Farewell, lover.

P.S. HOODIE ALLEN. :D
That's whasssup!

Ziggy's 11th Symphony

My computer is full of loads and loads of things I will never, ever look at again. Ever.
I'm terrified of my download folder. I refuse to even go there.
Unless, you know. My computer tells me it is full. That means going through tons and tons of files.
There is, however, one benefit in sorting through the pit of junk that is my computer: The forgotten gems.
Like this, for example. My dog sitting on the keyboard. Or as I call it, 'Ziggy's 11th Symphony':


I'll make sure to keep you posted if I find any more precious and forgotten keepsakes.

-Ameera

P.S. Omfg. Snow. :']

Meet Me in Marrakesh?

It's snowing so much. This is NUTS. Actually, there's so many things that are absolutely nuts right now. The Koreans are basically at war. There were attacks on churches in the Middle East. Hyperinflation is ridiculous (I like talking about hyperinflation?). Congress is lame-duck.

And amid all of this, all I want to do is go to Marrakesh. The NYTimes just did a piece on how the city has changed and it's cultural and amazing and blahhhabblahahhhh fuck that's just where I want to be right now. So badly.


"Djemaa el Fna, the main square of the Medina, is a motley tapestry of life, where shoppers wade through a chaos of fortune tellers, snake charmers and pushy henna painters"


Okay, cool let's totes go pretend that we were in The Darjeeling Limited with Owen Wilson for a while, nbd.


"A good starter is a bowl of snails in saffron broth, from one of the snail stands on the eastern end of the square (10 dirhams, about $1.23 at 8.2 dirhams to the dollar)" 
Go to the article, broseph


Oh, okay. Snails in saffron broth for $1.32...why am I here?!?

This One Time... Nevermind

I decided to ask a few friends of mine to help me with this post. These are snippets of the conversation Sean, Jesse, Mandy, and I had.
I like/am scared of these people.

------------------------------------------------

One day I abandoned my father, and then he cried. And then I left and did stupid stuff that no one cares about.

what what what what what what what what what what what what what what?

what?

Haha. Haha. Haha.
Hah
hah
hah
ahaha
hahah

Guess what?

I LOVE STRIPPERS.
I actually ate a stripper once. It was a legit stripper. I disolved the meat off of her bones with acid.


No nooooo. They were freaking out and saying their computer was talking to them.

I LOVE PEDOPHILES!
That does sound funny.

Sean. Steph messaged me, but I never replied. Because I'm a badass.

I don't date rapists!
I ONLY date rapists.


...She wants to make a snow unicorn.
YEAH. Who makes a snow unicorn? Like, what the fuck?


It makes me sad because I love hearing your voice. Sean, did you hear the sound I made afterwards? It was me wagging my tongue.

How old are you? Less than 10 is good.

How do you not like how hot she is? That makes me sad. Her hotness is just beyond your comprehension. I get it.


Her lips like, look a different color than her skin in these pictures.
I don't care.
That's all I care about.


I don't understand this picture.
She's a JEDI!
Yeah, but why...?

Yeah, that's what I was laughing about. The way he said nice.


What's that number? Can I call it?
Yeah, it's Jenny.
EIGHTSIXSEVENFIVETHREEOHNIIINE.

We're the only ones left! Mirandy died!

Everything I say is a joke... Just kidding. See! Even that was a joke.

I ordered a pizza and I wanna go get it but then I'd have to walk.
Brb. I'm going to walk downstairs and get my pizza UHUHUHUH it's hard to walk. -sobbing/seizure noises-

GUYS. I JUST HAD THE MOST INTERESTING 15-FOOT WALK EVER.
I died a little bit, but it's okay.
Okay.
I'm going to start my story with the fact I got my pizza.
I saw a lady. That was actually a scarecrow with an S drawn on her. YEAH! It was on the TV.
And then like I saw my dog and I stopped to talk to him. Like I said 'Sit'
But then imagined myself as the dog and yelled 'YOU SIT!'
Omnomnomnom

OM NOM. I did say gulp gulp gulp.

Aand the wheels of love go 'round, the wheels of love go 'rooound.

So this one guy was having his girlfriend rub his feet on the ferris wheels of Bethlehem.

THIS PIZZA IS SO BIG AND CHEESY.

I'm gunna go look at more pictures of Emma Watson. Did I show you guys this one?
D'aw, I love little bows.
You showed us this one already!
I know, I just wanted to show you how hot she is.

I wanna see how far this sock goes on my foot.

Don't chew with your mouth open!!

Your cat is you in cat form.

MERRY HOLIDAYS.

Hanukah Bushes

It took me a little over 3 hours to get home last night- the trip was all of 9 miles. Yay New England weather!!
Absolutely exhausted, I slept 12 hours, and I feel soo good right now. It's snowy outside. It's such a Bob Dylan day today.
I think I'm getting our xmas tree tonight. We sort of forgot to before.
 I was telling my father these plans, and he told me that when he was growing up, for all his jewish friends, the trees were called 'Hanukah Bushes'.

I'm going to go listen to some more Bob Dylan and be happy that I'm home safely.
Stay safe on the roads, everyone!

Stupid European Snow

I'm supposed to be in London right now. Yep, London, England. So why aren't I?

Thanks, weather gods. You had to send Europe one of the biggest snow storms on the weekend of my flight. I really appreciate it. Really, fo real.

Anyways, I have run away to NYC until further notice.

-Ameera

P.S. Hoodie Allen live? Heck yeah, we'll be there.

Free and Legal is Feeling Morally OK

Discovering the joys of free and legal music (I think).
For LD, you are a good CD maker!

Shout It Out to Raleigh

PS-

This made me nostalgic.
It's actually pretty good!

We've Been Terrible.

We need to get our acts together. We're going to start blogging regularly again, we just totally got off track.

So, we're sorry and apologize from the bottom of our hearts.

This song makes me want to rave, although the lyrics are quite um....direct and to the point? I suppose it's commendable that Shwayze doesn't try to avoid the message? I think?
Just dance and think of positive things you can do with your life instead.
-Natalie

Oprah or Bust

So, Ameera and I decided that we're going to try and get to Oprah. Or Tyra. We could easily settle for the Tyra show. So this is our new initiative: Oprah or Bust. We chatted about it all class, and then I forgot to post that night. Sorry!!

Please help us get to Oprah/Tyra! If we did, we could jump on Oprah's couch like Tom Cruise or learn to 'Smile with your eyes!' from Tyra. It'd be a dream come true.

So can you help us get to Oprah? Do you know Oprah? Does your second cousin's uncle-in-law's sister's college roommate's neighbor's lover know Oprah?


OPRAH OR BUST!!
-Natalie

PS- It is really cold outside good lord.

Previously On Dexter:

I just spent another Sunday watching an entire season of Dexter. What have my Sundays come to?
I will go to any measure not to do anything productive.

Anyway, Dexter.
I am now extremely anxious. I'm pretty sure I'm going to get murdered.
I always freak myself out. Since my house is pretty big, and human contact requires walking all the way through a dark house, I turn my music up and close my curtains. And occasionally sleep with the light on.
It's not that I'm scared of the show, or whatever I'm watching. It just gets me jumpy and freaked.

So I'm off to try and find my cat to keep me company.

Wish me luck!
-Ameera

I Think I Just Died A Little

"Yes, I make mistakes that I don't ever make excuses for, like leaving girls that love me and constantly seducing hoes."

 I've made some mistakes in life-who hasn't- and I never exactly came clean about them. I think it's time to confess some of my secrets from my childhood.

-3rd grade: When we were making signs for our our yard sale, I got a tiny mark of sharpie on your window seat, and then I pretended I was sick because I was so scared you would find it and I felt so bad. I still don't think you know it's there. 

FUCK. I was just walking downstairs to finish this post, and a HUGE truck pulled into my driveway, for the 2nd time tonight, and it stopped right in front of my door, and I looked up and this person is staring right at me from the passenger's seat, so I kind of flipped a shit and ran upstairs and hid behind a cabinet while trying to peak out the window. 

 I'm going to bed. I can't handle this. Confessions can wait.

Drugstore Cowboys

Sometimes I think I am a cat.

This has been a post. Shannon is deeply asleep. I think I will wake her up and make her entertain me.

Maccabeat-it!

Happy sixth night of Hanukkah/Chanukah! I hope it's been a good six days for you guys!
Someone showed me this, it's pretty much Glee meeting up with Taio Cruz and your Hebrew School teacher.
What's not to love?
Shalom!

-Natalie

PS- Please note in the beginning of the video the blue Crocs

Candlelight- The Maccabeats

I'm a vampire! I'm a vampire! I'm a vampire!

I've been watching Dexter all day. I've watched all of season three in one day.

If I had homework... Sorry to my teachers!

Anyways, enjoy Nicolas Cage. Losing his shit.

Baby, It's Cold Outside

I have become awful at staying awake to write. Jeez.
But then again, yesterday I had a terrible headache, so looking at the computer screen hurt.
I don't usually watch TV. I wait for any shows that I watch to come online before I watch them.
But I spent yesterday lying around on the couch, watching ABC Family and Scrubs reruns. And sleeping.
I love being lazy.

Also, I've started liking Glee entirely for these two:

Don't judge me. 

-Ameera

P.S. I better get some snow soon.

Hips Don't Lie

Driving to swimming, it's gross out. I am not looking forward to having a chat with my coach about my training schedule. I'm an practically an hour late because I got locked out of my house...again.
I turn on the radio because I lost my iPod-radio connecty thing.

Everything comes in static on Church St. But it's all okay, because when I accelerate on 202 by the high school, the radio comes in and Shakira is on.
I'm only speeding a little but I'm blasting Shakira, singing the lyrics like an idiot.

It's okay that it's gross out. It's okay that I have to finally have the dread chat with my coach. It's okay that I was locked out of my house for a few hours again. Shakira's on the radio!

Driving home an hour and a half later, Ke$ha comes on.
It's gonna be a good night.

-Natalie

Clairvoying A Total Pasta Melt

I am a terrible person. This page has been open since last night, when I was meant to post. Unfortunately, my posting was interrupted by my abrupt tiredness. I then proceded to lie down with the computer next to me, while I tried to find inspiration. Then... I passed out. It was a long day.
Anyways, making up for it.

I need to get more sleep. I find the stupidest things funny.

Example A:

Weirdest video ever. 

Example B:

Example C:

Also, I came to the conclusion today that Emma Watson is Twiggy. And it's great.

  

That's it from me for today, as I have a cat and mother that are wanting my attention.

This has been confusing.
