Trogdor the Burninator!

I haven't posted in a while and I was thinking about some of the good old days and videos that really brought something into my life (and by something I mean Joy, Laughter, Awesomeness...so on and so forth).

This is one of the those videos:



Strong Bad has definitely got to be one of the greatest internet characters ever created.

Thats all for now I don't really have anything else to share...

Peace out Sucka

I think Im going crazy. I drew this.

Seriously. If something doesnt change, I might lose it. I've been major stressing lately. I've even been having dreams where something stressful is going on and I wake up feeling stressed out. No es bueno.

But in better news, my birthday is coming up! Friday! Im going to be 20!



So Jenna asked me what I wanted for my birthday, and I said 'I want a man.'. But now after seeing this video, scratch that, I want PEAS. With their tight little bods inside their pods. Yes.

Or maybe, love?

THE BOONDOCK SAINTS

JESUS, JOSEPH AND MARY!

Photobucket

SOOOOO basically The Boondock Saints is a pretty effing epic movie. I only saw it finally pretty recently, so when my suitemate Jenna informed me that they were coming out with a sequel I was pretty damn stoked. BUT we found out it was in extremely limited release. So we were sad. Then yesterday, just by chance I was looking through the movie listings online to see what had come out at the shows yesterday. Lo and behold, I see at Roxy Stadium THE BOONDOCK SAINTS II: ALL SAINTS DAY. So I text Jenna immediatley and we ended up going to see it. And it was awesome. Irish boys are sexy. Especially sexy Irish boys with tattoos and guns.

This weekend I also had some of the best naan and curry ever at Shangri La across the street from SSU. Seriously, it was amazing. In fact I want some right now. Their chicken with creamy curry and butter naan is just a piece of heaven on earth.

Wow, I get off to ethnic foods such as naan and curry and cult classic flims. Im such a fucking hipster.

Oh well, got a problem with that? Well, make like a tree and get the fuck out of here!!!

Im so baddass.

tomorrow, today, and yesterday

I just had Katie watch the 1 Man 1 Jar video as well as the Mr. Hands video. They never fail to demonstrate to me how stupid humans are. Ugh...I think I need to vomit.

So I've embarked upon an ongoing photo project. Nothing special, mostly out of boredom and I like finding little things to do here and there to keep me from going crazy at this hell hole of school. I only look forward to the weekends it seems :( But I can do random shizzy like this whenever.

tomorrow is...

today has been

Yesterday was

Don't understand? Its okay, you're not supposed to. Think you know what it means? You're probably wrong unless you're me. But if you want more, you can find me at http://www.flickr.com/photos/catalinavolta/

So we all know how much I love bears, grizzly bear sleeping bags, ghost grizzly bears, Grizzly Bear the amazing band from Brooklyn, and now Bear in Heaven. A band who I just got into recently and I really dig their sound. In fact the authorities of indie rock over at pitchforkmedia.com called their latest album some of the best new music reviewed. Here's 'Lovesick Teenagers'



Oh yeah, lets not forget Im a permanent special guest on KSUN radio today from 4-6, every Tuesday. Check us out at ksunradio.com

Also, tomorrow I have a day off! May be going to San Franny, *fingers crossed*

Enjoy, au revoir.

....said the grizzly bear ghost

Today I got my H1N1 vaccine, and Im kind of feeling paranoid. With all the bru ha ha about the things that can go wrong, I'm hoping I dont die within the next few hours.

So life has been...good? My friend showed me this the other day, and I think that anyone who is feeling bad for whatever reason should stay the night in one of these, and in the morning they'd feel a whole lot better.

ITS AN F'ING GRIZZLY BEAR SLEEPING BAG!!!! I mean really, wouldn't that just cheer you up?

Speaking of grizzly bears, the band Grizzly Bear has a new video out. With Grizzly Bear having contributed to the New Moon Soundtrack, lets hope some new kiddies youtube them and get nightmares.


Doesn't really make sense to me, but then again I don't see the need for it to. Its Grizzly Bear for God's sake.

Are Those People or Are Those Bears?

Hello Boy and Girls it's that time once again:

Vloggy Vlog Time

We have taken the time out of our very busy schedules to make another Vlog (video Blog incase you didn't know what that meant)
This one literally had us wasting a lot of time because we had to do it in three takes cause my computer was being a butt.
So without further ado here is the long awaited premiere of "Are Those People or Are Those Bears?":

Dia de los Muertos

So today is the second day of Dia de los Muertos, or Day of Dead if you couldn't figure that out.

Dia de los Muertos is a holiday whos origins come from Mexico and Latin America. Basically it is a day that celebrates death as opposed to mourning it. It is viewed as a celebration of a loved one passing or having passed on to the afterlife. So, death is a beginning more so than an end.

Some people view this as kind of morbid, but I see it as something really beautiful, and an amazing way to celebrate someone you care about who has passed on. To commemorate them, people often make altars in honor of their loved one, and in Mexico and other parts of Latin America it is not uncommon for families to bring the celebration out to the actual grave sites. The altars are decorated with marigolds, photos, and favorite foods or drinks of the person being honored.

I've always always always wanted to go to Mexico around this time of the year. I love all the art and culture that comes with Dia de los Muertos, not to mention it is a part of my very own culture. Some day, maaaaybe I can go. It would be amazing to say the least.

Anyway, this weekend I found a little store that sold molds to make sugar candy skulls, or calaveras. Im super excited to try and make some!

Photobucket

So this weekend was Halloween weekend. I hope everyone had a fun and scary time. I know I did.

Photobucket

Yep, that's where I get it from.

Anyhoo, damn is it really November already?
