Again these are in no particular order but Charlieissocoollike (mentioned in part 1, go check him out) is indeed my favorite youtuber of all time.

What floats your boat?

What floats my boat on this rainy Thursday?

*I'll make it clear that "float my boat" is another way of saying what was good about this week just in case there is any confusion.*

Anyways what floats my boat this week?

My sister Vanessa!




So all this week I've been cranky because I've had assignment after assignment after pointless effing assignments. Not only that but its been to freaking hot in the city. Like literally massive amount of water vapor in the air and as we all know I HATE HOT WEATHER! Thus, I'm furious when I get home.

This has caused me to get home and want to take a shower but I can't unless everything is clean and organized down to color coordinating things! When there not organized I get even more furious and unfortunately take it out on other people. Sadly, most of the time I take it out on my little sister Vanessa. I don't actually think I hurt her feelings (okay well maybe once in a while) but I tend to boss her around a lot. Giving her tasks like:
"Help me clean up!" or "The least you can do is play with the Chikis!" or the occasional "You don't help around here so do something "

I've come to notice recently that I tend to act this way on many occasions (perhaps maybe possibly every day) but come to think of it I believe I owe her an apology. Better yet, I owe her a hallmark card. Perhaps the typical "THANKS FOR PUTTING UP WITH MY SHIT! I LOVE YOU" card. Oh how I wish they'd make cards like that! In all seriousness even though I may act like an arse towards her I really do love her. I love her like a lot and not just because I have to (well I do have to) but because in some weird warp hole she is me and I am her. Like two inseparable, homogenous, parallel duo.

What really made me come to this realization was on Wednesday when I got home. I opened the door and saw her there with my two little pups and I felt a welcoming sense which is something that I haven't felt in a very long time. I've realized that as much as I enjoy spending time with friends, I most enjoy the valuable time that I spend with her, my real best friend. Someone that no matter what will always be there for me and will always feel what I feel because we understand each other that well. Perhaps it's how we joke around, laugh with each other, know every fact about each other or help each other out in a sticky situation. Maybe it's the fact that we've been through so much together, or the fact that we think like each other. Whatever it is, perhaps everything that I've just mentioned, there is no doubt in my mind that she is one of the most important, if not the most, people that I'm blessed to still have in my life.
Thus, my beautiful sister is what floats my boat this week (well all the time but I've realized it this week)

Anyways that's it. A little bit of an emotional what floats my boat this week but I'll put a humorous one next week don't worry. Unless I talk about my dad then I'll get REALLY emotional but I doubt that'll happen anytime soon. Maybe around Christmas time I'll write something else like this. Suggestions? So yeah until next time folks! Peace in the middle east!

United Kingdom!



I've been thinking about traveling a lot lately and have decided that one of the places I would love to visit is the UK! Here's why

1) They've got the most amazing accents!

2) Free healthcare=opposite of America which=Fantastic!

3) Brings me to me being real tired of "America" (And yes in my mind I said that in a G. Bush accent)

4) Football! I love it! Most amazing fans I've seen. (Go Manchester United!)

5) The Beatles came from there which again proves that the country is amazing!

6) London!!! Do I really need to say more?!

7) Coldplay came from there! Wth. They've literally got the best bands.

8) The flag just looks amazing!

9) Dr. Who!

10) Tea!

Anyways back to finishing my paper.
Until next time!

Worst movies of all time.

Hey what up!

Throughout the course of history we've had some bad ass movies that have won our hearts and have won titles like "Best drama" or "Best comedy" or maybe even "Best motion picture". To me some movies would be The Godfather (first one), What's Eating Gilbert Grape, The Dark Knight, and a couple others.
However, there have also been some movies that are the complete opposite. Horrible, suck ass, waste of space (of digital film space that is), awful, shitty, stupid, etc. These movies that just make you wish you hadn't wasted valuable and precious time of our lives.

This is in no order from shitty to more shitty but these films are just point blank crap.


1. Kazaam
"He's a Rappin' Genie-With-An-Attitude...And He's Ready For Slam-Dunk fun!" Seriously what the hell is that all about? And Shaq acting thumbs down.



2. Glitter
Just the name itself sounds stupid. Plus Mariah Carey -_- Yeah. Its poo.



3. Superbabies: Baby Geniuses 2
Here just read the quick synopsis of the movie: "A group of smart-talking toddlers find themselves at the center of a media mogul's experiment to crack the code to baby talk. The toddlers must race against time for the sake of babies everywhere." Enough said. Wtf?



4. From Justin to Kelly
OMG read this quick synopsis: "A lonely, sexually repressed man. A depressed woman. A summer camp. On this fateful night, they will meet... and their hearts will become one." I think I might start a whole new post on crappy movie synopsis. The worst movie! It was a musical what the?



5. Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore
Animal movies are one of my favs but this one did not do it. Wth worst dialogue ever! Watch Underdog or Marmaduke instead.



6. Jumper
All that's good about this movie is looking at the very hot Hayden Christensen jump around looking sexy as hell but that's it! The plot and character developments are a mess.



7. When in Rome
It's like watching the freaking Lizzie McGuire movie except its not cute at all and the age of the actors makes it seem stupid.



8. All of the recent disney channel movies!
Seriously I won't even give them much attention but every plot is the same. Changing the setting and the name of the characters isn't all it takes Disney. Y'all had so much talent before when there were movies like Cinderella, Snow white, The Hunchback , I can't believe they all came from what we call now the makers of the same company as Camp Rock or Dadnapped. Ugh.


So those are the worst movies ever in my opinion. Of course there are many more but for right now that's all I have. Maybe I'll post another post like this especially since this is the 3D obsessed generation. :/

Until next time!

Jake and Amir!

So I was around the Upper East Side of NY when suddenly I see someone that looked like Jake Blumenfeld from Jake and Amir! To my surprise it was him! Check this picture out homies!



If I wasn't in such a rush to get to class which I was already going to be late for! But either way: "Oh sheesh y'all twas a dream!"
(BTW Jamie if you are reading this send me the rest of the pictures!)

What floats your boat?

So from here on I will be trying to put up a post every Thursday of every week on until I die or the internet explodes or something. Thursday is my new Friday yay! This segment will be called Thursday's what floats your boat?

What floats my boat?

New season of Glee started this Tuesday!
In case you missed it go to fox.com/glee to watch the episode plus some extra cool videos.

Next weeks episode is the long awaited Britney Spears episode. Have you seen the trailer!!



Also there are rumors that Kristin Chenoweth will return to Glee this season and Gwyneth Paltrow will join the cast! Fingers crossed.

Btw I loved the new guy on Glee with the huge mouth. "I want to be a billionaire so freaking bad"



And Sunshine Corazon. Too bad she joined Vocal Adrenaline.




Anyways that's what floated my boat this week.

What makes you happy?

Things that make me happy happy! (Not in any order)





1. My Mac!
Seriously one thing I can't live without is my 17' Macbook Pro. I love it to death. Yes it's one of those objects you name and grow accustomed to. So much that you feel so blank and desolate when you don't have it at your side. Too much? Eh.




2. The smell of coffee in the morning.
There's nothing better than waking up in the morning to a hot coffee. Just that smell takes me back. Memories and then some!




3. Coldplay!
My favorite band of all time!! Fo serious ya'll I want to have Chris Martin's babies. Sucks that Gwyneth beat me at it but still. It's one of those bands I need to go see in concert before I die. If I don't get to then that would suck. Big time!


4. Harry Potter! Need I say more?



5. Jason Mraz
I fall asleep to his songs almost every night so I like when someone with such an angelic voice can do that. Jason FROST!



6. Piano
I've been playing piano since I was ten so I've grown a great admiration for it if you haven't already figured it out. Probably one of the fewest things that helps me float away for a while. (Request a song btw)


7. España!
Yeah. Duhh. You don't know me if you don't know this by now.



8. Glee.
I was fortunate enough to have seen the cast live at radio city this year. Amazing experience. Makes me happy.


9. Fernando Torres (9!!)
I want to touch him. Don't think wrong! But seriously I would love to touch his hair. Plus he's absolutely gorgeous! Viva el niño!


10. NYC!
The city makes me happy! Overall, I love the different types of people here. We're one of a kind! :D Live it, love it!

I will continue this some other time. These are some of the things that make me happy of the top of my head. I'm sure I'm missing some very important things but this isa a pretty good list.

Well until next time dudes!
