haha, I just lied to you again! wow, you're so gullible...
Day 44 was a Saturday with a very very dismal morning: SCHOOL :'(.
In the end though, it wasn't that bad, and before I knew it I was on Spring Break...in early March...how epic is that?
My Spring Break started off with a trip to the movies...not a voluntary trip mind you; I had to take my brother and sister to see Alice in Wonderland. Contrary to what I was thinking prior to entering the theater ("Great, Disney is going to remake a classic film that doesn't need to be remade and its gonna end up as a crappy contemporary-themed film that'll end up suffocating me in my chair"), I thought that the film turned out nicely. It's very different from the original Disney classic, so it can't be specifically classified as a remake (a good thing in my opinion), but it still retains that Disney charm it has 50 years ago (give or take a decade). If you're cool and open about going to see Disney movies in theaters, you should check out Alice in Wonderland.
I made an interesting musical discovery a couple days ago. I was watching the trailer for the new Clash of the Titans movie (its gonna be a sick movie) and I noticed that the instrumental music accompanying the trailer was a pretty decent alternative jam. I decided to research the song on youtube and I came across the song "The Bird and the Worm" by The Used. However, as I scrolled down the search results, I realized that Owl City also has a song called "The Bird and the Worm". Naturally I decided to listen to both....and I almost died laughing. The juxtaposition of these songs is hilarious. One minute you're spitting metal and screams from the Used version, and then you're suddenly a happy-go lucky synth playing artist from Minnesota. What comparison could be more ridiculous? Take a listen to both, and see what I mean...
I know I promised a marathon, but quite frankly my brain is fried (perhaps it was because I was looking up the dynamics of an atomic bomb on wikipedia right before writing this....why you ask?...I really have no clue). I'll attempt to catch up tomorrow...
maybe ;)
G'night Interwebs!

Where did you hear about The Used? This song is kind of the best thing ever.
ReplyDeleteTheir song "The Bird and The Worm" was in the preview for Clash of the Titans, so I decided to look them up!
ReplyDeletereally? it doesn't seem much like an appropriate choice for clash of the titans, aside from the bit of gregorian chanting thrown in thar...this song has basically become my anthem, though.
