Oh Brianne

Brianne is just about the most airheaded girl I've ever met in my life, and, trust me, that's saying a lot. A lot. Consider my older sister.

Anyway, that's just about as much description of Brianne as you really need, but I'll add. She's brunette, but oh... if she was blonde it would be so much better because, you know... dumb blondes, which I, as a blonde, am allowed to find funny.

Today in Young Womens before we started Marie was getting the opening exercises ready (asking people to say the opening prayer, lead the song, etc.) Brianne bounces over and says, "Oh, oh! Can I say something? I want to do something! Please Marie? Pretty-please?"
"Sure. There's still the thought or the theme."
"What's a thought?"

At which point I cracked up and made everyone around me crack up as well, but of course Brianne was completely oblivious to the situation. Of course Brianne wouldn't know what a thought is... she's never had one.

She doesn't mind either, and quite enjoys discussing it with her alien friends in space (well, either that or they're the reason she doesn't think... but at any rate, she says she has alien friends in space). Oh Brianne, you make me laugh so.

Also... guess what? This is my 99th blog. :0 I can't believe I stopped blogging so short of 100. I hope something awesome happens for me to write about in that one.

I apparently have a lot to blog about.

Recently I randomly decided to listen to that good old 2009 winning Eurovision song (from Norway, may I remind you) and then I went on a Alexander Rybak spree. :D

Turns out he is from Belarus but simply grew up in Norway (from 5 years old), which is how he ended up performing for Norway's Eurovision entry (well, that and his amazing skills and attractiveness).

Anyways, to keep up with my current Youtube movie posting habit, I've been trying to decide between two Rybak songs to post on here. One is a more normal song (with more traditional music, but pop lyrics... kind of an odd mix, but I was singing it all day today >.>) and the other one is one he wrote for a woman he's touring with this year. It's meant entirely as a joke, so when you see it, don't be like "Ohmigawsh stalker!" It's just a silly video for a friend.

The first one puts more of a focus on his super-sweet violin skills (I do have a soft spot for singing violinists, I've noticed) and his very expressive singing style. You might see him sing and think "He's so weird" but I see it and I'm like "8) Takke. Jeg kjærlighet den." I love it when people open their mouth when they sing. Expressive singers=awesome. You might notice among the groups I listen to, all the singers open their mouths wide when they sing and are very expressive. People who don't... I don't listen to them. It is actually a criteria I look into .
(This is part of the reason high school singers, especially in our musicals, drive me insane. Open your mouth, holy cow! That ruined Les Mis for me last year. xP Open your mouth Merry, please.)

I couldn't decide which one I liked more, but for some reason the silly song doesn't allow embedding, so that's the one I'm putting here.



The link to the funny one is this though:

*claps in your face obnoxiously*

Do you remember?

Do you realize it is the 21st of September? I nearly forgot about my tradition of listening to odd, old music about the day today. D:



Let's see how many consecutive days I can put a YouTube video in my blog. :P

Did somebody say dancin'?

Finding Nemo is still pretty-much my favorite movie, even though I have had times where I've semi-changed it (mostly to Shrek... and it is really right up there by Nemo). Lately I found a couple people that make this adorable fanart for it, and they also led me to watch this, which I also loved:



Marlin seemed a tad out of character when he was all like "Did somebody say dancin'?!" but it was very fun anyways. :D

Also a couple of the super-cute fanarts because you must see them and share in the awesomeness.

Neither of those are by the person that originally came up with the design, but there is a link to that genius' account with the pics so you can look at them there.

/song love

Last night I was listening to Show Tunes Saturday Night on 106.5 (which I recommend the rest of you do as well). This song came on that I hadn't heard before, and so I kind of paid better attention to it and... holy cow, I loved it. So I listened really closely to hear what it was and what it was from. In the Heights (which I haven't heard of before so I don't have much clue what's going on here, past that it was a language lesson gone... awry), Sunrise.

So I found it on YouTube and I've been listening to it, like, all day. Sooo cute. (Why yes, I am allowed the occasional girlish fancy. :P)



:D

What?

All my friends are apparently still blogging.

I'm kind of in shock at this. I guess that means I gotta blog again too, and start reading theirs. And I shall also be the only one to comment on theirs, I guess. Hopefully they return the favor because feedback is really all I care about on the Internet.

Today I will introduce you all to one of my favorite webcomics, Dinosaur Comics, or Qwantz. They were originally introduced to me by my United Kingdom-dwelling friend Happy, who is also quite awesome. Once she wrote POERTY. Accidentally.

She was also a part of my favorite conversation about Twilight ever.

But back to Dinosaur Comics.

Here's one that'll teach you something interesting. :0 Like a lot of them. A lot of them don't too, they're just funny. One of them is boring.
Anyways... uh, read it.
