Video of the Day: 6/14/08

Video of the Day. (it's a new thing i'm trying)

Today's video is Annaleigh Ashford's role in Sex and the City. She is amazing. Some of you might know her from her role as Glinda in Broadway's Wicked. She was in the New York company, and is currently in the Chicago one. She is an amazing actress...do not judge by this video though. haha.

Shoop

So I had my ipod on shuffle the other day and a song popped up called Shoop. It's by the band Salt 'n Peppa. The song used to be on the radio all the time when I was little. I'd listen to it in the car with my parents. It had a nice beat and all.

So the song pops up and I can't really understand the lyrics and so I look them up and WOW....see for yourself.

Hey, yeah - I wanna shoop, baby

[Oooo, how you doin', baby?
No, not you
You, the bow-legged one, (ha-ha) yeah
What's your name?
Damn, that sounds sexy]

Here I go, here I go, here I go again (again?)
Girls, what's my weakness? (Men!)
Ok then, chillin', chillin', mindin' my business (word)
Yo, Salt, I looked around, and I couldn't believe this
I swear, I stared, my niece my witness
The brother had it goin' on with somethin' kinda...uh
Wicked, wicked (oooo) - had to kick it
I'm not shy so I asked for the digits
A ho? No, that don't make me
See what I want slip slide to it swifty
Felt it in my hips so I dipped back to my bag of tricks
Then I flipped for a tip, make me wanna do tricks for him
Lick him like a lollipop should be licked
Came to my senses and I chilled for a bit
Don't know how you do the voodoo that you do
So well it's a spell, hell, makes me wanna shoop shoop shoop

Shoop shoop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop ba-doop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop

Ummm, you're packed and you're stacked 'specially in the back
Brother, wanna thank your mother for a butt like that (thanks, Mom)
Can I get some fries with that shake-shake boobie?
If looks could kill you would be an uzi
You're a shotgun - bang! What's up with that thang?
I wanna know how does it hang?
Straight up, wait up, hold up, Mr. Lover
Like Prince said you're a sexy mutha-
Well-a, I like 'em real wild, b-boy style by the mile
Smooth black skin with a smile
Bright as the sun, I wanna have some fun
Come (come) and (hmmm) give me some of that yum-yum
Chocolate chip, honey dip, can I get a scoop? (please)
Baby, take a ride in my coupe, you make me wanna...

Shoop shoop ba-doop (Baby, hey)

Shoop ba-doop ba-doop ba-doop
Shoop shoop ba-doop (Don't you know I wanna shoop, baby)
Shoop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop ba-doop ba-doop

Well let me bring you back to the subject, Pep's on the set
Make you get hot, make you work up a sweat
When you skip-to-my-lou, my darling
Not falling in love but I'm falling for your [super sperm]
When I get ya betcha bottom dollar you were best under pressure
[Yo, Sandy, I wanna like, taste you]
Getcha getcha lips wet cuz it's time to have Pep

On your mark, get set, go, let me go, let me shoop
To the next man in the three-piece suit
I spend all my dough, ray me, cutie
Shoop shoop a-doobie like Scoobie Doobie Doo
I love you in your big jeans, you give me nice dreams
You make me wanna scream, "Oooo, oooo, oooo!"
I like what ya do when you do what ya do
You make me wanna shoop

New Card Game

So tonight I actually hung out with some of my friends. Suprise, right? haha. Anyhow...it was about 10pm and it was just me and my friend Bobby sitting at McAlister's. Some of our other friends had gone to see a movie. So we are sitting there and we decide to go on an adventure...but not just any adventure...a card game adventure.

We hopped in my car...no gps...no maps...no nothing. The only thing we had was a deck of cards and the soundtrack to Across the Universe. So we made up a card game. It goes as follows....

Black cards mean Right...Red cards mean Left. So if you drew a red you would know to turn left. If you drew a black you would then proceed to turn right. And so on and so forth. So how do you know WHEN to turn? Well the number on the first card minus the number of another card you drew. Unless the second card was higher then you would subtract the other card from the higher one. This would tell you how many exits (if you were on the interstate) or how many lights to go.

For example...say I drew a Red Jack...that would be left 11....then I would draw another card...say that card was a 5....then its 11 minus 5....so thats 6. I would know to turn left after the next 6 lights. The color of the second card drawn means nothing.

So those are the rules of our made up card traveling game....the funny thing is...it lead to some WEIRD crap.

First...we ended up on 65-N towards Nashville. We got off at Harding Pl. and had to immediately turn right. We ended up in some weird random neighborhood. Strange thing is...we got to a dead end so I pulled into a house to turn around and guess what!!!! It was a house that both me and Bobby had been at before!!! It was soooooo random and weird. I had gone there when I was on a ride along with a sheriff for my criminal justice class. The burglary alarm went off and so we went to that exact random house! Bobby had used that house to turn his car around in before. CREEPY EH???

Then we made a couple more turns and ended up on Franklin Pk. We are driving then 2 deer run across the road in front of us!!! Not in front of the car or anything. It seemed like they were putting on a show of some sort. So that creeped us out even more. Random houses...now random deer. The cards must have magical powers or something.

And so then we continue down towards Franklin Pk...and we see Nashville up ahead. We had gone the back roads to Nashville it seemed.

We make another more turns and end up in front of this random statue. I don't really think anything of it until Bobby yells out, "I know where we are! This is Gay St!"

I couldn't stop laughing for so long. Me and Bobby ended up on Gay St. HA! So then we drive some more, following the cards...and guess what we pass.

We passed Play (a gay club we had been talking about just an hour or so beforehand) we passed the Hustler store, we passed another club we had been talking about. It was crazy!!!!

Then we found the interstate and decided to head home but can you believe it. We had the weirdest night....

a. a house we both had been to before
b. crazy deer (and when we passed them a song on the cd said, Dear Prudence....Dear....Deer!!!! Get it)
c. Gay St.
d. Play and the Hustler Store

CRAZY NIGHT!!!!!!!!

p.s. I recommend this crazy card game to anyone. Great way to explore...and experience craziness.

McAlister's Deli

So I am back in Franklin for the summer and am working at McAlister's Deli. I can't believe I am still working here. I got the job at McAlister's my junior year in high school. I don't know why they seem to like me there. But they do. So oh well. I wish I got more hours than I do though. This week I have 16...I don't see it looking up anytime soon. Blah.

I basically work there for the sweet tea and 30% discout. woo hoo. food.

boring blog i know.

Summer Daze

So its been forever since I wrote in my blog last. School was hectic. So many final projects, so little time. I found the weeks flying by in Savannah. Now I am back home in TN for the summer...its been one week....not even....and i am sooooooo ready to go back to the craziness.

You realize after you go away to college that things are never going to be the same. Sure you have your friends in high school and you see them when you go back for summer. But it is just different. Those friends have made new friends. You have made new friends. You have to decide if you are still the same person you used to be before college. If you can still fit in each others lives. It is a hard process that will take some time.

I miss my friends in Savannah. I really do. But I also realized something today. I am not the only one that had to leave Savannah. All my other college friends went back home too. I have this feeling that I left my friends behind in Savannah...but they really aren't there. The memory of them is there. But they physically are not. If I were to go back to Savannah to visit the one or two friends that stayed for summer session...it would be different.

My life is on hold until September 15.

I cannot make new friends here in Franklin...theres no point. Three months is all I have. It takes at least that long to develop a good relationship with someone.

I cannot relate to my friends like I used to in high school. They all went to the same college practically. They kept in contact with each other. I chose to go 500 miles away to college...and in doing so...i severed practically all ties with my high school friends.

I feel like I am just wasting these 3 months of my life on nothing. There are no projects to work on, no films to create, no friends to hang out with, no work really (if 15 hours a week counts). There is no reason for me to be in Savannah for these 3 months, and no reason for me to be in Franklin either. Where do I belong within these three months then?

Summers used to be so fun. Now they are a drag.
