BANDS YOU HATE THAT I LOVE:

You say:  “Jared Leto is a fantastic actor and should stay being a fantastic actor.”

chartattack.com

You hate them because Jared Leto looks like a “huge tool” on stage, you hate them because they're in the "mainstream", and you hate them because the boys can't decide on one haircut or hairstyle, so they continue to be foxier than you. You hate them because you wish you were a hot babe who can pull of skirts. You really hate them because fat tween girls love them...and most of all you hate them because of, well, their appearance and non-legitimate reasons, and that sucks. But I won't lie, I was on that same boat as you for a while. Read this to see what I mean. Click here if you enjoy being a hater.

I say:  If you ever even listened to their album you would know that hey all truly  know how to play their instruments. There album provides us fans with big choruses and power chords (and even a little auto-tune for all you T-Pain fans [but not really]).You might think they suck JUST because they’re 30 Seconds to Mars but listen to the songs. Really listen to them without the prejudgments.  

 The first 30 seconds of most of their songs give me chills………

“No matter how many lies I live, I will never regret; There’s a fire inside of this heart,
 about to explode into flames; Where is you God?”

 Jared’s lyrics aren’t typically what we’re hearing these days and it’s so refreshing for a “mainstream” band to be releasing what they feel is magic. Their music just provides so much intensity. It emphasizes emotions that make us feel sort of vulnerable. On top of it all Jared's raspy voice has so much force and when he belts out that beautiful mouth of his (creepy?) the crowd actually goes wild. The don’t hide behind anything which makes me appreciate them so much more.

Favorite songs:

"Track 10"

Listen to Tomo slappin da bass (guitar) hard than he slaps his girlfriend’s ass in bed and Shannon’s drumming that makes you want to rage, yeah I said it.

 Favorite lines:

THE WHOLE SONG

“Try and stop me
Try and save me

I want to fall...

Try and cross me
Take me, teach me

I want to fall
I want to fall
I want to fall...

I want to fall
I want to fall
I want to fall...”

Minimal amount of lyrics– so you can't say the lyrics suck, and if you still think so, you're completely mad.

I know I could go into much more depth of why they suck/are great but hopefully I can leave that to you guys to discuss down below? Let me know how you feel.

Waiting...

I find myself constantly waiting around for people. I'm sick of feeling stupid and wasting my time waiting for a text message or a phone call. No more.

I'm thankful for...

Music

So cliche, right? Imdont think enough people believe that cliches are so true. They're the secrets to life or at least that's what Shay Carl keeps telling me...and you know what, I believe him.

Anyway, I'm in bed for Thanksgiving this year, listing to 50's/60's music...

I bet I'm the only loser who would ever actually admit that whenever I listen to people like Jackie  Wilson, The Crest, Little Anthony, Dion, etc... I cry. It's just so beautiful. I know, I'm lame. Any normal teenager would completely laugh at me for writing this nonsense but when this music comes on my heart just starts to beat SO incredibly fast. Then when I plug in my headphones, put them over my head, and finally start to blast Lonely Teenager to the maximum levels tears suddenly decides to just start falling from my eyes. I suppose it's the way my body decides to release adrenaline. I don't know. It's pretty wild. So many songs about young love, so much suck.

I can't wait to meet someone who can pick apart all of my thoughts and truly enjoy this music...one day.

Wavves Part Deux

When I went to go see Wavves with Fucked Up! (which was a 18+ show) some dude came up to me basically asking if I wanted to "mosh" with him. I politely said "I'm okay, thanks anyway!", but he wasn't taking no for an answer. He kept asking me questions and my best friend wasn't helping me get out of the situation because apparently she thought I was "into it", which I was not.

This led me to telling him I was underage, even though the show was clearly 18+. Harsh? MEH. Anyway, he then asked "Why do you have the number 13 on my hand? Or is that a 'B'?" followed by "Does it mean you're a BAY-BE?". I thought that was hilarious so I said "Yup"...and you would think he'd go away because at this point I'm considered jail bait...he did not. Whatever, my intentions are not to put the random guy "on blast" but to simply be able to soon look back on this post and just remember the word "BAY-BE" and be able to have a laugh attack.

As for the Twitter post, I have a horrible habit of reading others opinions on the show and I found this tweet and thought it was HILAR.

Top 5:

For those of you who won't admit that you read missed connections, cut the shit. It's okay to be a little desperate sometimes. But if you're like me you read them because they're hilarious, adorable, and usually genius.

Over the past month I've been collecting a few of my favorite stories. So here:

From Me To You - Top 5: Craigslist Missed Connections:

1.

 I clearly don't go to NYU (even though most think I do when I say LIU - idiots!) but I've noticed the NYU connections are always the cutest most simple "missed connections" ever.

2.

I mean come on, "I study water, you study fish, want to hang out and drink like one"!!!!! Maybe I should transfer.............

3.

 "Hello, HELLOO"

4.

 Not a missed connection but simply because I have to give a shout out to my COLOMBIAN sista'! I usually try to stick to the M4M because guys' stories are just more ballsy and fun but I decided to switch it up.

5.

NYU missed connection, yet again. I'm just not sure if this is creepy or cute? Maybe I'm the creep for actually reading these? You decide. 

BANDS YOU HATE THAT I LOVE:

exclaim.ca/

ChippedHip.com

You say: "if you like this band, you probably like touching little kids. fuck them"

"they are both cheap ripoffs of Sparklehorse"

Then there was this incident: 

"Singer Nathan Williams experienced a public breakdown as the band was unable to complete their set at the 2009 Barcelona Primavera Sound Festival.^[7] Williams, who admitted he'd taken a cocktail of ecstasy and Valium, fought with drummer Ryan Ulsh and insulted the Spanish crowd, who then pelted him with bottles and a shoe. Apologizing for their performance, Williams admitted the next day that he was addicted to alcohol. " 

I say: They rule! Adorable Nathan "Wavves" Williams hails from sunny California and he's proud (and though I still think the East Coast is the "Best Coast" [cheesy reference that HAD to be squeezed in - go ahead, point and laugh] I have to admit that "California-type-people" are doing big things lately). I really enjoy him belting it out with no cares and no worries....and although he insulted my people, I still really enjoy the sounds of fun he creates. The fact that he doesn't try so hard to be this awesome dude makes him great. It just makes him so much cooler. He smokes weed, admits it and he isn't afraid to get silly, which definitely shows in their music!

Favorite songs:

He's cray-cray, and I love it!

"Green Eyes"

Favorite lines: 

A)"Green Eyes, I'd run away with you..."

Possibly about Ms. Cosnsentino?

*wink wink nudge nudge*

B)"My, my own friends

Hate my guts"

"No Hope Kids"

Favorite lines:
 THE WHOLE SONG.

Bottom line is you can try to convince me they suck all you want, either way my opinion will always remain correct - Totally kidding, imagine I was this much of an asshole? But yeah, you still won't change my mind.  They're playing on 09/24 @ Webster Hall- w/ Fucked Up and guess who's best friend bought her tickets? THIS GIRL.
