No PANTS, new HAIR, and HALF awards?

Let's take a moment to talk about the Grammy's. The most simplified explanation you could get is that the Grammy's is basically a bunch of Hollywood Elites, gathering together to drink champagne and honor themselves in an awards show. On the other hand, their music is okay depending on who you are talking about. First, our attention goes to Adele. Her voice is amazing, period. You would have to be deaf to refute this statement. Yes, she started over on her tribute to George Micheal but her voice made up for it. Another thing, she gave half of her award to Beyonce. I couldn't even comprehend this act of humility. She made me appreciate her more, honestly. She just showed a lot of love for Queen Bey and rumor has it* Bey cried.

Now let's gather our bearings for long enough to talk about Twenty One Pilots. First words that come to mind are Stressed out, their most popular, overplayed song right? Wrong. First words that should come to mind after the Grammy's is NO PANTS. If you didn't watch the Grammy's, let me fill you in. The people that make up Twenty One Pilots, Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun, tweeted that they would accept their award from the Grammy's in their UNDERWEAR. Why you ask? Well they had an explanation, a weird one but at least one that is true. They said that they vowed that they would accept their Grammy Award in their underwear, because before they were musicians they would watch the Grammy's in their underwear. Weird right? Well, they stuck with their promise and it actually happened....... Let me show you.

Like I said...

One more thing. I know, I know this is a long post...just stick with me for like 2 more lines. But, did you see Katy Perry's hair? That color looks great on her, and we would know. She's colored her hair every color in the spectrum. The only thing she hasn't done with her hair was shave it off, which she said she was saving for a mental breakdown, which by the way I think is going to happen soon. The way she keeps changing her hair is a sign, don't you think? Anyways that's all I got. And if you want to know more about the Grammy's you should look on YouTube, right after this post. You obviously have a phone and a brain. So shoo.

*see what I did there.

And in honor of it being Valentine's day this week, I present a Gene Wilder meme to offer some company since you were obviously single on Valentine's Day or is that just me?

Hey Trump.... I've got some advice.

As we all know Donald J Trump is the president of the United States. And I've got some advice.


Dear Donald J Trump, President of the United States,

                         I would like to first congratulate you on your win. I think that you had won over the average American worker by promising radical changes. Now it's time to put your money where your mouth is. I would like to see how you make America great again. Now people on the left* are very opposed to your ideas. Acknowledge them but don't stoop down to their level.  They will try their hardest to make you give in. Don't. Do what you can to make America the land of dreams for the middle class. I also advise keeping your allies close. Don't push them away but use them to give you advice, back you up, and even tell you when something isn't right. That being said, keep your enemies closer. Try to create better relations with the countries that have a deep burning hatred for us and our ways. 
                        I hope that you have great plans for the future. If you can find a way to not raise people's ires and have them protest everything you do, please do it. They are blocking traffic. They are so desperate and so mad about your win that they would protest if you said your favorite drink was Pepsi, not Sprite. I also have a saying that you should keep in mind. "You don't lock your doors because you hate the people outside, you lock your doors because you love the people inside." -Tomi Lahren. Make America Great Again!



*People on the left being those who are violently protesting. Not the average Democrat. 

I wish

Everyone loves getting gifts. But, not everyone knows what they want. Trust me I never do. Except for now or else this blog post wouldn't exist. If there was a genie that would manipulate someone's mind to give me a gift of my choosing, I would set out on a quest for that genie stopping only to eat food and sleep. But sadly there isn't. *tear But, really what this blog post is about is what gift I would like to receive so.... The gift that I would like to receive is *drumroll a room makeover. Wow, that sounds really girly. No but seriously. 
My room is on the smaller side and I want it to look amazing. The color scheme would be monochrome and gold, with little decorations here in there in teal. The walls would probably be white and the floors a black wood sort of thing. I would also get new furniture in black or white and a new bed because I really need the extra storage. *cough *cough. But I would definitely not do this on my own or with my parents. I would hire an interior designer. I mean who doesn't want there room to look like it just stepped out a magazine. With  the room I had imagined in my head, Kim Kardashian would be jealous, and she has a walk-in closet the size of my living room. I just want a room that I myself will feel fabulous in. Even though I already am. *slow clap. Sorry that was very self-centered.


Tell me what you guys would get for Christmas if you could have anything. *granted you have a genie.

Why Name, Why?

My first name is Alexandra which is a Greek baby name meaning the defender of men. But why did my parents chose it? There are 2 specific reasons for my name. 1. My grandfather who passed away before I was born was named Alexander and I take it that he was well liked among the family. 2. My mom likes this butterfly named the Queen Alexandra so she had something to contribute to the choosing of my name. Cool and tragic. But if I would be given the opportunity to chose my name I would chose the name Myra. Why Myra you say? It's unique. How many people do you know have the name Myra. Maybe no one. And the name Myra is related to the Latin and Slavic words for "wonder", "peace" and "wonderful." So basically me. (Not to be so self centered but it's true.) But then again I like my name and am happy that my parents didn't name me after a food item (like bacon) or a celebrity that ended up going looney. So be thankful of the name you were given. 

This is the Queen Alexandra butterfly, the largest in the world. 

Future Career?

If I was forced to pick a job in the school district, kindergarten through 12th grade, I would most likely be a math teacher for grade 7. I would be a math teacher because, according to a personality test I have a math-wired brain. (Okay, that sounds really wierd but bear with me) In the test it said that I think logically and do well in a standard math classroom. I would also pick seventh graders because I feel like 7th graders would be easier to talk to. It also said that I can communicate well with other people so I would be able to explain to the concept to the 7th graders without confusing them. (Well, I probably will confuse them at some point bur at least they would understand something.) And according to other teachers and parents, the teenage years are hard (and I will be experiencing those soon so YAY!)  and they (teenagers) don't listen very well so I would rather teach preteens. But I probably won't be a teacher so...

4 days to Turkey Day

I'm currently sitting at my desk at home, hearing the TV buzz on upstairs, deciding on which music to use on my book commercial. I look around and smile internally. I realize how much I have to be thankful for.

A lot of people don't understand gratitude. They don't see how great their life is. A life where they could eat 3 meals a day, a life where they have clothes and a bed to sleep in every night, and a life where they have parents that love them. Not everybody is this fortunate. I understand that now. So today, 4 days before Thanksgiving, I am making a list.

1. I am thankful for my teachers. For waking up early every (school) morning to get to school on time and staying up late to grade papers. They have not only made me a better student but overall a better person.

2. I am thankful for my family, who loves me even if I almost dropped their phone into a boiling pot of soup, or if I had eaten the piece of cake they were saving (and of course planning on eating).

3. I am thankful for my friends, who are there for me all the time and who make me laugh so hard that I collapse on the floor, 

4. I am thankful for the technology I have been provided with: making it easier to communicate with family on other continents or friends who have gone on a road trip to California. (and left me behind)

5. I am thankful for the jobs that my parents have. That their jobs provide income and a better life for my brother and I then my parents had. In addition to being able to provide us with the latest fad.

6. I am thankful for soccer, which provides me with a way to stop thinking about that important exam on the next day and a way to socialize with friends. 

7. I am thankful for my health, for being able to run the mile every Friday (even if I completely despise running the mile) and for being able to hang out with my friends.

8. I am thankful for books, which provide me with an entertainment that even the latest technology can provide. There is nothing comparable to snuggling up with a good book and a bowl of red seedless grapes.

9. I am thankful for music — bands like UB40 or Modern Talking who take me to the 80s (of course I wan't alive) and also keep me from chewing my fingernails during a stressful situation, They give me a way to let go of reality even if it is just for 3 minutes and 24 seconds.

10. Lastly, I am thankful for my opportunity at life. For being able to show what I can provide the world with and for being able to live to my full potential. I will make the most of it since I only get one shot.

The ASPARAGUS nightmare

     If I would to chose one food that I completely despise with a passion it would be the disgusting, green, mini spears people call ASPARAGUS. I cannot understand people that actually like ASPARAGUS. Even the sheer sight of it makes me want to spew out my innards. They don't even taste good and they make your pee smell like you just threw ASPARAGUS into your toilet.
     Even when my mom makes it for herself and my dad I can't eat dinner with them because honestly I'd rather gouge out my own eyes rather than eat ASPARAGUS. (Sorry that got a little graphic) Now I know what you're thinking "What did ASPARAGUS do to you?" Now let me tell you that I have good reasoning behind my ASPARAGUS hating.
    Okay, so one day we were eating dinner and it included chicken, ASPARAGUS (this was in my pre-ASPARAGUS hating stage), and some sort of carbohydrate. (I can't remember if it was potatoes or rice) So I ate everything like a good little girl who eats her vegetables to grow up big and strong. Now, about 10 minutes after dinner I felt sick, like as if I had just thrown my head against a wall and got a major concussion sick. So I ran into the bathroom and surprise surprise I threw up. And I don't hate ASPARAGUS because I threw up, but I hate it because my barf tasted like ASPARAGUS. What I  think of when I see ASPARAGUS is how painful and disgusting throwing up is. I'm pretty sure you don't like every food out there and I don't blame you for it. But if you like ASPARAGUS we can't be friends. I'm sorry. But I'm not going through another scene like that.

You don't even know how much I gagged just to post this meme for you.
