Here are some songs that I <3, but you’ve most likely never heard of.

Dear Maria, Count Me In - All Time Low

This song ROCKS. All Time Low is kind of like a Boys Like Girls type band, so of course I love ‘em! Also check out Six Feet Under the Stars.

Listen?

First Time - Lifehouse

Lifehouse is a pretty popular band, so maybe you’ve heard of this. I’m really the only one at my school though. Also check out You and Me.

Listen?

Bigger Than Love - My Favorite Highway

I just recently found out about this song and band. This song isn’t even sold on iTunes! Also check out You’re Making it Come Alive.

Listen?

If Everyone Cared - Nickelback

I love Nickelback, and I totally get this song’s message. Watch the video below, it’s really cool. Also check out Rockstar.

Listen?

Let Go - Boys Like Girls

Boys Like Girls is a waaaaaaaay popular band, but mostly people only know The Great Escape. This song was “resung” by them, and it’s a lot slower. Also check out Hero/Heroine.

Listen?

I don’t know… I just feel really special when I have a song I really like that no one else knows about. But now, you all know about these songs!

For those of unfamiliar with “IM talk,” that means “Oh My God, What the Hell?” Yes, that’s what I’m thinking right now. I just reviewed this site called “Simply-Alaura,” and let’s just say that it didn’t score high. At all. (See the review here) She emails me back after I took a good 2ish hours to review her site (it wasn’t that long because there wasn’t much to review.) and says this.

Hello…umm thanks I guess. But honestly if that is all you can say..go buy a life. They sell them cheap on Ebay! =)

WTH?? You’re telling me to go buy a life? Reasons why this comment is stupid:

1. It’s insulting me after I took my precious time (time that I’ll never get back!) to review your lame site. I know that sounds mean, but if she’s going to get that honest and disregard other’s feelings, then so will I.
2. It doesn’t make sense. If you’re saying that I didn’t say a lot, then obviously I have a life! If I typed up a novel about your site, then obviously I don’t have a life!
3. That phrase “go buy a life on Ebay” is so stupid.
4. Is the smiley face supposed to make me feel better or something? Because it’s not working.

How can some people be so unappreciative, ungrateful, and just plain rude like that?

Just FYI, I told her that I was going to blog about her, so she knows this is coming.

But seriously, your site didn’t have many good qualities okay? You knew you were signing up for an honest review, and if you didn’t see the fact that your site isn’t wonderful coming, then I’m sorry, but I told you the truth. Why are you  getting mad because I was honest? Sorry if you’re allergic to honesty or something, but how about you fix up your site and try again later? I’d love that so much better then you telling me to get a life.

• My new principal came from a Catholic school, so she expects us to be very proper (no stereotype intended), which we are the complete opposite of. She expects my ENTIRE grade to pay attention at once, and if a single person talks, we all get detention. Yeah. It sucks.
• The new principal closed all but one the bathroom because we “misused” them.
• She told all the principals to never give us passes, so now if we’re thirsty or have to go to the bathroom, uh, too bad! We only have 5 minutes to get to all our classes, so it really sucks if your next class is on the other side of your building, you have to stop at your locker, and you have to go to the bathroom. All the guy teachers say they could do it, but have you seen the line for the girl’s bathroom? It’s long, people.
• We have to sit by advisory (homeroom) at lunch because one table misbehaved.
• The announcements every morning are like 15 minutes long because the new principal has to announce every little thing and make us say the pledge of allegiance. Okay, so this isn’t really a bad thing, but it can get annoying.
• Our school is completely broke, and they decide to spend money on free t-shirts for the entire school. What?! That money could actually be put to use.
• Our old principal let the 8th graders duck tape him to the wall every year, and now he’s gone! THIS REALLY SUCKS!

Yeah. Just a little rant I had to get out of my mind! But I guess this entry should probably be titled “Why The Principal Sucks” for the most part.
