Another Way to Die?



Landfills >.<
We watched the video discussing the planet and the things we're doing to kill it. But, that's weird because recently I've been listening to a song by my favorite band, Disturbed: "Another Way to Die." The song talks about how we are creating another way to die by killing the planet, well basically, that's the gist of it.


I can honestly agree with pretty much everything in this song. I wasn't just bobbing my head to the beat it was more of nodding in agreement, it made me realize that we are sort of waiting for Mother Nature to strike back because of all that we've done.


Personally I think that we should be conscious of what we are doing. We shouldn't wait to let something get so bad that the government HAS to step in to try and salvage whatever we have left. I've heard that littering and the wasting of cans and bottles has more than doubled within the last decade.


People, including myself, seem to talk about wanting to recycle and wanting to remember to turn off electronics and such, but we seem to forget and let it slip our minds. Granted there are a few people that put forth that effort to take one more step and toss a piece of paper in a recycling bin instead of the trash can. I think that now is the time to start something, a bit of a revolution to recycle, to help save and rebuild what we have left of this Earth.


**I really suggest you check out this video I thought it was rather 'eye opening'**

Random Stuff

I honestly don't have a whole lot to write about this time so, I'm just going to write about random stuff, or things that happened this week or something.


Well, yesterday, I had fun at the Heights vs. Central Crossing game. I'd like to say congrats to my cousin who was in the 8th grade band who was also playing at Central you guys played pretty good. I met somes people from Central that were extremely nice, its always great to meet new people. I went home and totally crashed afterwards though, well after playing Guitar Hero for a bit that is ^.^


Today I woke up fairly early, I think my internal clock was like "Holy crap you gotta get up for school!" But the sad thing is we don't have school today so I was kinda mad at that clock >.< Later on, my sister came over and brought my nephew, Spencer with her ^.^ its really awesome to take care of him when you know if he starts crying I can yell for either my sister or my mom and they come and take him until he stops crying XD. I am currently sitting over at my sister's right now watching the OSU game. I really, really wish that Mom and Brenna would get back so we can put some food on the grill 'cause I'm starving.

Doll Face

Personally I found the video to be a slight bit creepy. It reminded me of something you would see on the SyFy channel. But considering I like the SyFy channel, it was kind of awesome, in a creepy way of course. The fact that there wasn’t any dialogue was kind of cool; it made the video look more mysterious and different considering most YouTube videos do contain some dialogue.

                                                                                                         
In the video, you see this face-thing looking at a TV with a woman on it and every time the woman on the screen changes her appearance, the “Doll Face” tries to look exactly like that woman and each time the TV gets further away, the face stretches further and further to reach it until the machine the face is attached to breaks.
           
It really reminds me of how society seems to treat people, especially women. Fashion changes all the time, and each time you see people going out of their way to go buy the latest thing. There is a certain way people think they should look, they want to look like the people they see on TV, so they go out and try to buy things or do things that will make them look like that and they aren’t happy until they do.
                                                                                                                         
Honestly, I don’t much care for the “new” style that seems to be going around, like plaid…*eye twitch* I try to keep it simple and just go for the whole black T-Shirt and jeans thing…however, I did fall into the skinny jean fad, I like them lol.
