I have English this semester. WOOHOO. (No sarcasm, I actually love English). This is my tribute to its wonderfulness. I love the poetry unit. -Sigh- From the title, I’m sure you can tell that it’s about a utopian and dystopian society. Watch for where it transitions from utopia to dystopia in the midst of the…
Personally, I found Graduation to be a little expensive (which is why my friends and I had a delicious dinner at Bolero instead of a $70 banquet), especially for girls.

Nyan cat, the most annoying meme ever, or an amusing musical piece? Either way, the title has piqued your interest and I’m going to post my favorite videos related to Nyan Cat. [youtube QH2-TGUlwu4] The original Nyan Cat video…extended. Bothersome? Perhaps. Strange? Of course. Addicting? Absolutely! [youtube P0bpK7kPRys] Pianos + Nyan Cat = Cooool [youtube…
