Wahhh!! Though I don't especially like Justin Bieber's (relatively) new song Boyfriend, it has led me to some finds that I do like. Justin is having a best cover contest on Youtube, and many of the covers are definitely worth listening to. Here's the link so that you can judge for yourself, after all, I do have some rather weird tastes..
Now then, here are my own personal favorite two. The first is by a London boy with a delicious accent and an angelic voice. Oh, and did I mention that he looks just as delectable? Well, see for yourself, I promise I'm not lying ;) Goodness, even his name sets off a tingle. Elyar Fox. Delightful. Haha, I was so stricken by his appearance, voice, and apparent sense of humor that I even went to his FB page and sent him a message. Never done that before.. But then again, I haven't found anyone so close to my own age and yet so drool-worthy before either.
As for the second cover that just stood out, it's a bit shocking. After all, it's a nine year old boy rapping and singing so sweetly and perfectly that I feel as though my world's tipping. I was never that talented at nine. Nope, not even in piano, or dance, or anything that I spent hours practicing everyday. And by now I'm sure that you're impatient to see this boy wonder that I kept chattering about, so here you go, an opportunity to find a treasure. Oh, and did I mention that he lives in the same state as me? I think we're just an hour apart ;/ Haha, so famous, and only in fourth grade? Well MattyB, keep on rapping!! P.S.-he made a cover of One Direction's "What Makes You Beautiful" as well, and it's just as adorably great. (Sorry, couldn't resist, One Direction is one of my favorite bands!!)
If I were in charge of anything, then I would say that Elyar Fox should be signed on in a heartbeat. With his looks and vocals, I'm sure he would become an instant sensation. And not to mention his amazing accent either. I kept replaying his videos earlier in the day until I finally realized that AP exams are next week, and I'll have more time to obsess over his videos once I'm done testing and stressing and not sleeping. So I'm completely serious about how much I love those two boys right now (come on, I even linked them to this page, and everyone knows that I would never do that unless I just adored them so much that I overcame all of my procrastination and laziness to actually do it), and you should check out the videos, even if you aren't a Justin Bieber fan. Enjoy!
But before I go, I decided that to capture even more of your interest, I'm going to add a picture of Elyar Fox ;D
Oh why not, I'll just add one of MattyB as well then~
I wish more guys had eyes like that..
And now, that's really all. I do have to go study don't I? -.-"

Mayday
English is such a strange language. So ambiguous, so conflicting. Mayday, for example, is a holiday that is celebrated on the first of May as well as a word used to signal disaster.
Well, today I'm not celebrating the holiday, though I do love parting of all sorts, I'm hollering my distress for the wide Internet community to perceive. And what exactly has caused me to skip almost a month of posting and sees me sitting nervously at all of hours of the night flipping through textbooks? Why, AP testing of course!
I imagine that this year I've finally gone crazy. In the next two weeks I will be rampaging through four AP tests. One of which I am not taking in school. That's right, I'm taking AP Biology as an online class. Which means more work. After all, I'm not going to let my GPA suffer for my foolish AP cramming. Oh, and guess what. My school operates on a block schedule so that I took AP Language last semester. Yeah. That means I've gone quite a few months without really writing anything. I mean oh sure, I've written a few essays for AP World History, but it's not really the same now is it? AP World essays entail crammed content, but little styling or anything else required for a successful lit. paper, namely analyzing.
There's so so much more to say, such as the violin recital that I missed because of You and Me meetings, and my ballet recital in two weekends that I may not be able to make because last week I managed to sprain my ankle. And then of course there are all those final exams that I still have to take, with Biology worrying me especially as I now have a 93 in the class. All this and so much more. What am I going to do? Well, perhaps, go do some Calc now so that sleep isn't just an illusion..

Oh The Breath of Spring~

It's spring break!!! Ahh, this blessed release is so warmly embraced by all that the atmosphere is akin to that which usually surrounds the commencement of summer vacation~

No More Joking
Goodness. I can't believe it, but I haven't slept before 2 in the morning for over a week now. I would guess that it started last last Thursday night. Actually, more often than not I've slept barely before three during this time period. And the two Saturdays included thus far, I've slept at a shocking 5:30. Sometimes I wonder how I'm still on my feet, walking through school, not nodding off in class, laughing around with friends, and most astoundingly, making it through ballet class (with a broken air conditioner might I add, so at around 80 F) without breaking down at some point.
And I know that most people out there who bother to read this will be snorting at how much I must procrastinate, but really, I haven't even procrastinated that much in the past few weeks. I've seriously been busy. Spring break may be next week, but with the amount of work I have, I'm not sure if I'll be able to do any relaxing. Well, some has to happen. What I meant though, was if I would be able to go on any outings other than my promised trip to see the Hunger Games (yes, it's a shame that I haven't been to see it yet, but like I said, I'm almost literally drowning in work). After all, AP exams are close (to Asian mothers at least) and of my four AP exams, I'm not expecting to be prepared for any if I don't whip through those waiting piles of study guides cluttering my bedroom floor. I'm taking AP Bio online, and I feel as though I've learned nothing because reading the textbook for it is just at the bottom of my school-related priorities and so long as my grade stays up, my mom doesn't pay too much attention to it. I haven't had AP Lang since last semester since my school operates on block schedule, so no I'm feeling as though writing even one essay will be beyond me, much less analyzing rhetorical strategies and persuasive techniques while fighting a time limit for three different essays. Though I'm taking AP World right now, our teachers just too much of a nice guy, so I don't have high hopes of finishing the material before exam date. That, of course, means much more extra studying for me. And finally the thought of the AP Calc exam just terrifies me. For one thing, it's on my birthday this year. Great. And then what really makes me nervous about these next few weeks is the fact that I'm taking Calc AB in school but I'm taking the BC exam because few universities particularly care about the AB exam. So there we have more studying lined up (insert forced exclamations of joy).

My Prince

Like a Dream
I feel like recounting the robotics competition this past week in South Carolina, but as I have no idea where to start, what to detail, and how to organize my memories, I suppose I'll just have to leave it at a single word:
bittersweet.
bittersweet.
