The Best of the Best. or BOB, if you will.

Last year I didn't really excel at being a part time uni student or national level biathlete. I did how ever produce some of the greatest blog posts of my blogging career. Here they are:


My current status as a Pure Math Major is not helping me achieve my dreams.

I Hate the following.

So I'm doing the whole "good/smart big sister role" and helping my idiot of a sister with her grade 10 French book which is actually a book I read in grade 8 French class cause I'm smart.

Sorry Robin Hood, you've been duped.

The latter group of people are huge losers.

Girl Crushes are a wonderful thing.

In the midst of a solo dance party in my kitchen...

I love Christina Aguilera.

ATTENTION WORLD!

...the delicious Molly Swain.

Should you dance in a tight black dress, it will most likely rip from the zipper to your mid thigh.

...a maladie undisclosed.

A slow one for asthma.

Yesterday I was all "man my eyelashes are frosting"...

...for reasons which are undisclosed to the public at time of publishing (and for an infinite amount of time after publishing) .

Kids, don't be idiots. Leave your homes and go to summer camp. It is the best place in the world.

Dancing hardcore with broken pants.

Ewan Mcgregor is a babe and drugs are bad. Real Bad.

Spell check is not working

My sister and I had massive plans for the best Sailormoon website ever

I think a medium sized alien is about to rip it's way out of my stomach and then devour me from head to toe.

My mother thinks i'm a miserable child. I think she is too stressed and afraid of laziness/relaxation.

Got a new blog layout. It's black. Like my heart.

Unfortunately it hit her right in the eye and she cried a bit, but it was still hilarious.

Why is it that inspiration and the motivation to do great things comes to me at the most inopportune times?

I practice killing people regularly.

Every time in breath I instill fear in the heart of some Hell's Angels member.

That is all beside the point however because the true fact of the matter/my life is that I LOVE ZACH BRAFF.

See kids, high school is not for naught.

At this moment in time I have done 0 of my homework and 0 of my reading which will probably get me very little above a 0 on my mid-terms, when ever they may be. I'm a little bit stressed right now due to this fact.

Bad news - kick starting my life is not going so well
More bad news - i am a huge loser with no friends

How will I do this? By sitting on my blog and making a list of course!

Also, I really like the part when Camille, played by Solange Knowles, is ready to throw down. She's just like "Carisha! Hold my shit" and starts to take out her shoulder length hoop earrings. Clearly she has done this before.



I have to go to class. Balls.

Best Albums of 2007

My body doesn't digest the majority of delicious food and I have trouble sleeping. This makes me miserable. To not be miserable I spend 12.22 on mushrooms, hummus and sushi at my local overpriced grocery store. I also listen to music.

The following albums are totally kickass and make me happy. Hopefully they came out in 2007 to adhere to the title of this post. If not, oh well. I listened to them extensive amounts this year and since I'm the authority on everything, thats what really counts. Also, I am really confused by my chronology right now.

The Dudes - Brain heart Guitar (2006)
Amy Winehouse - Frank
Arcade Fire - Neon Bible
Woodpigeon - Songbook
The Wombats - The Wombats EP
Voxtrot - Voxtrot
Bright Eyes - Cassadaga
Christina Aguilera - Back to Basics (2006)
Stars - Do you trust your Friends?
Stars - In the Bedroom after the War
Gogol Bordello - Super Taranta
Feist - The Reminder
Good Shoes - Think before you speak
The Grates - Gravity Won't Get you High (2006)
Los Campesinos - Sticking Fingers Into Sockets
Eskimo and Sons - How does it Feel to be Crushed by One Man with the Strength of a Million
Kanye West - Late Registration (2005)
Mother Mother - Touch up
Kate Nash - Made of Bricks

A couple of really disappointing albums:
Tegan and Sara - The Con
Kanye West - Graduation
Justice - (Cross)

Why?

Tegan and Sara have been whining for forever. There old stuff is good when your 16 and there is tension everywhere but they need to grow up. Graduation is basically just Kanye thinking he is the shit. He isn't. Late Registration was way better and he probably wont put out anything that good again. Justice is a douche bag. He didn't even title the album. I thought religions exploitation was used by hip hop folk and George Bush, not little DJ Electro dance boys. Also, I know this guy named Dan you could whip up and album entitled (Star of David) and kick Justice's ass.

Kicking it off right. ish.

As my first post of the new year, I feel this should be epic. I also feel like I should compile a list of my favorite albums or something because I profess to like music a lot. That said, I am a) lazy and b) think a year is way to long a period of time to evaluate (this is namely due to my laziness). An epic and music filled entry with tops and bottoms and fav fads may appear. Hopefully. My new years resolution is to be less a lame ass slob and do more things that are interesting and stimulating. I say this a lot.

Regardless, this first blog of the new year (however many days late it may be) is dedicated to my most avid reader, Rosanna Crawford. Fear not my heart, fan club t-shirts are coming out soon. After I re evaluate my financial situation.

Evaluation of Financial situation:
Not as much as I had last semester.

This means less sushi and band merch. LCBO spendings and concert ticket fees however have squeezed past the cut. It was a tight race but after an intense period of prioritization I remembered what the two most important tings in my life are: Peace and Love. Jokes - Booze and Beats.

Along with my pledge to be more stimulating, I as well resolve to find out what the deuce is wrong with my intestines/body. This knowledge coupled with my new workout regime (it entails actually going to the gym) will hopefully help me reach my last new years goal: rockin a bod like that of Ginger Spice. I will then reunite with my childhood girl band for our reunion tour. See you at the Gardens.
