This Shit is Hilarious (B-A-N-A-N-A-S)

First let's get it out of the way that Gwen Stefani is genius. Her songs are catchy and aren't all about objectified women. And they don't even have Justin Beiber! How shocking. 




If we're already at Gwen Stefani. Look at my bag!



                                                It says nerds rule, what more could you ask for?


It's from her Harajuku Mini series. And it has a hamburger. 


For the record this won't be a fashion blog because I know so little about runway fashion and taking pictures of yourself in not particularly creative clothing doesn't count.  So many of my clothes are really boring right now. I haven't found a thrift store yet or figured out combinations with stuff I have now which I'm trying to do. Although I do have a great scarf.
                                                    It looks more neon-y in real life


I really have to find some creative ways to dress because my school has a uniform. It's EVIL  and there's no way to express yourself and there are no art classes and tests three times a week. Everything we wear has to be plain so I can't even decorate a sweatshirt and wear that. Any ideas?? Or cheap Israeli stores with some unique stuff?
This was supposed to be about funny animes (hence the hilarious shit title) but I felt like using Photobooth so next time. Meanwhile go watch Ouran High School Host Club so you'll know what I'm talking about! And Tokyo Godfathers.

'Tis the season

Just finished watching the Phineas and Ferb Christmas special. (Tuning out the laughter) I used to hate it but then they alluded to Edgar Allen Poe and I fell in love.

A few things that most five year old watchers won't recognize in the episode/the series
A.k.a. me trying to convince myself I'm not watching a five year old show in my free time
-What ambivalent, rubenesque and apathy mean
-How Phineas is making fun of cliches when he mentions something like this: The sky just turned dark and ominous, which is clearly foreshadowing that the plot will take a negative turn soon. You gotta love cliche jokes right??
-Ferb's line in some other episode
"Quantum theory states that observation of an experiment changes its outcome"
-The HP/LOTR and Star Wars/Star Trek references in Nerds of a Feather
-And the Cats, The Phantom of the Opera, Oklahoma!, Singin' in the Rain, Fiddler on the Roof, West Side Story, The Music Man, Les Miserables, The King and I, Chicago and Cabaret allusions (ooo not that fancy fancy word)
-That Phineas says this at one point: "but break into spontaneous singing and choreography with no discernible music source!" It's like a High School Musical (         alternate world where the characters realize how ridiculous they are. 


(No worries, I'm sane enough to hate all the other Disney Channel offsprings.)
It's totally not creepy that I took the time to make that list...oh well. I have a history test tomorrow. Oh the joy. Bye peoples.

The Beginning...drumroll please

Hi people!
I think it's plain I have no idea what I'm doing. Lately I've been trying to become more creative, and I'd like to be involved in some sort of counterculture.  I don't know if the blogoshpere counts...probably not...but this looks fun so I might as well. I don't know what I'll write about yet, probably my life, rants, really neat stuff that no one else cares about and whatnot.
I think that Rookiemag and StyleRookie are utterly amazing and I love chocolate.  I thought about naming it 42 lives. I don't feel entitled to because I haven't actually read A Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, but I've heard 'the meaning of life is 42' so many times already that it counts. I'm wondering if the current title is good or ridiculous, any ideas?
