Worst day ever.

So yesterday, I woke up with a need to vomit.

I immediately went into the bathroom and started puking. The moment my face went into the toilet bowl, i knew it was going to be a great day...

So, I get up and realize that I don't have time to shower and that I need to just go to work. I get clothes off like my floor and head to work.

Work went well for the most part until i went on break. I ordered a salad, and sat down at the break table, i took two bites and my phone vibrated.

I open it up, it's my friend Maria from high school. She wrote "Dawson passed away today"

My heart dropped. Dawson... David Dawson, was a really close friend of everyone in my high school. I had a lot of really good times with this kid.

This is so hard for me to believe. The fact that im writing this right now is surreal to me because he was not supposed to die. When he walked into a room his presance was known. He was one of the nicest people i've ever known and he had a smile that was contagious.

I'm not gonna lie as im writing this i'm bawling my eyes out. I can barely see what im typing naymore.


RIP David Daniel Dawson - I'm going to miss you so much.

Baby on board...

So, lately i've been looking up a lot of acapella and barbershop quartet style stuff on youtube and finding some seriously cool shit.

like this for example:

So, since I've been sick all I've been doing is watching Comedy Central and all they have been playing is "Comedy Central Presents..."

This guy was pretty good on Comedy Central... Not as good on this video, but still I think he's got some good jokes...

Today is a day we will all remember for the rest of our lives.




"But in the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope"




Congrats, President, Barack Obama!

Yes, We Can.

Ok, so i'm gonna be honest here... This following video gave me some major chills and it even made me cry just a little bit.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjXyqcx-mYY

Lyrics-

It was a creed written into the founding documents that declared the destiny of a nation.

Yes we can.

It was whispered by slaves and abolitionists as they blazed a trail toward freedom.

Yes we can.

It was sung by immigrants as they struck out from distant shores and pioneers who pushed westward against an unforgiving wilderness.

Yes we can.

It was the call of workers who organized; women who reached for the ballots; a President who chose the moon as our new frontier; and a King who took us to the mountaintop and pointed the way to the Promised Land.

Yes we can to justice and equality.

Yes we can to opportunity and prosperity.

Yes we can heal this nation.

Yes we can repair this world.

Yes we can.

We know the battle ahead will be long, but always remember that no matter what obstacles stand in our way, nothing can stand in the way of the power of millions of voices calling for change.

We have been told we cannot do this by a chorus of cynics...they will only grow louder and more dissonant ... We've been asked to pause for a reality check. We've been warned against offering the people of this nation false hope.

But in the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope.

Now the hopes of the little girl who goes to a crumbling school in Dillon are the same as the dreams of the boy who learns on the streets of LA; we will remember that there is something happening in America; that we are not as divided as our politics suggests; that we are one people; we are one nation; and together, we will begin the next great chapter in the American story with three words that will ring from coast to coast; from sea to shining sea --

Yes. We. Can.

We're goin to candy mountain Charlieee...

So, we all know and love Charlie the Unicorn...


"We're on a bridge, Charlie!"

Oh, it's all so good haha

You only love me when im leaving.

So, a few years ago I went to go see Regina Spektor in concert and she had two opening acts.
The first act sucked. I don't even remember his name to be honest..
So when the second opening act came up, everyone in the audience was kind of on edge because of the first shitty opener. Well, the second act took the stage and they were setting up all of these crazy instruments and everyone in the audience was very confused until they began to play.

(The video is just random. It was the best video I could find to show you the song haha)

I swear to you. I fell in love right then and there.
This bands name was DeVotchKa and they are godly.
I dunno if any of you saw the movie Little Miss Sunshine, but (aside from being an amazing movie) DeVotchKa did the entire soundtrack to that movie.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VlnkQOexUSo

They also had one of their songs featured on a commercial for that game Gears Of War.
The lead singer took out a giant bottle of wine at the begining of the set, and by the end of the set he had drank the entire bottle. He chugged the wine in-between songs haha.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CLKxkZV4BaM

The tuba player (yes, they have a tuba player) had christmas lights going around the inside of her tuba so when she hit her first note, the tuba lit up like a christmas tree.
They would switch up instruments during songs. They are all very talented and it amazes me haha


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJyvHKNfRQs
(Ignore the video, I just put it up for the song haha.)

That song is one of my favorites because when they played this song the entire audience was kicking and dancing like crazy people. It was soo much fun haha

Alright, I guess i'll leave you with the youtube video of the moment
