TDC: Day Two


Day 02 - A picture of you and the person you have been close with the longest.
So this is me and my best friend Yonca (Yawn-ja), we met in grade four, had the same parka in grade five and we've been best friends since the seventh grade, she knows more about me than I do and I love her more than ANYTHING. She's the person I laugh the hardest with, share the most with and miss the most when I'm alone, its been like this for five years now and nothing can break us. <3 ily

I want this life

So, its summer and I have nothing to do so I have a schedule which revolves around YouTube. I find myself watching Shaytards EVERYDAY and when I mean everyday, I mean I'm watching his daily vlogs and catching up on the previous 500 videos he has up, each one being around ten minutes or longer. All I have to say is that I think I love ShayCarl, he makes me laugh nonstop, his wife Katilette is GORGEOUS and extremely sweet and the little kids are ADORABLE I JUST WANT TO EAT THEM. I actually want a life like this, and I can't bring myself to marry Shay since his life is just too cute and I wouldn't want to ruin it, so if anybody out there thinks they're like ShayCarl, give me a call.

This was originally planned to be a written post, but I couldn't think of a better was to explain the influence than through a video. We got a little carried away...

Britney Spears-Lucky Music Video

The original and mine.

Is Lady Gaga a Genius?

"Well, that's your opinion, isn't it? And I'm not about to waste my time trying to change it."-Lady Gaga
Lady Gaga, you either love her, hate her, or don't understand her. Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta or "Lady Gaga" is a popular American recording artist. Her first album: The Fame reached number one in six different countries and top-ten in numerous countries world-wide. This album won her two out of her six Grammy nominations in 2008. Later came her next album: The Fame Monster, the songs on this album dealt with issues and problems that come with fame, while the first album dealt with the happy and fun side. This album includes her newest singles including: Bad Romance (225,754,949 youtube views), Telephone (55,263,327 youtube views) and Alejandro(the video came out last week and already has 14,849,480 youtube views)

Many people argue that Lady Gaga is filled with Kaka and her work is utter garbage and she is simply crazy. I strongly disagree, I think Lady Gaga is like no other, I absolutely think she is a genius. Though her songs don't exactly have the deepest meanings or aren't quite life changing, they are extremely catchy and she seems to be doing extremely well, so clearly it's got the right stuff. Her influences: David Bowie, Queen, Madonna, Michael Jackson, Freddie Mercury, and Gwen Stefani. There have been comparisons between Madonna and Lady Gaga, but it was Madonna who revolutionized music 25 years ago, today's Madonna is our Lady Gaga.
“And, now, I’m just trying to change the world one sequin at a time.”- Lady Gaga

Recently there has been some controversy between Lady Gaga and Christina Aguilera, fans have been going back and forth saying that Christina has stolen Gaga's image or that Christina has been around before Gaga. But when it comes down to it, it's nobody's fault, it's just Lady Gaga's success, she is revolutionizing music as we know it.

Lady Gaga's fashion is the most peculiar and amazing fashion I've ever seen, I think this is another reason she is an absolute genius. Everything she wears is either something NOBODY would have imagined that would be used as clothing, something nobody has seen done before, or has taken something incredible from the past and enhanced it (picture to right). Her outfits are outrageous and everything about them is "crazy" according to society, but this is exactly why it's so great.
"You have to be unique, and different, and shine in your own way."- Lady Gaga
