Carney: Love Me, Chase Me

How have I not posted on Carney's new video for Love Me, Chase Me yet? Misplay. Carney filmed their first video this past summer & it finally came out a couple weeks ago. It blows my mind. In a time where I kind of forgot about music videos (thank you MTV for never playing them you whores), Carney comes along with this piece of art.

It's a great song by one of my favorite bands of the year. One of my favorite videos ever. These guys literally have talent oozing out of their pores. They are also all very nice guys. If you ever get to see them live, do it. Check out the Love Me, Chase Me video:

Ke$ha

I'm ducking LOVING this Tik Tok remix with drums done by DrUMK1nG. I'm a huge sucker for drums. Good work.

Killing Time - TheArt

So The Art is this band that I didn't really know too much about when I went to go see them live over the summer. I had heard like 3 of their songs beforehand. When they opened up for The Veronicas on July 12, I was blown away. They were just so for lack of a better word "cool". I loved their sound, and their presence was beyond. I should have bought their EP at the show when I had the chance. **kicks self** But I guess I'll have to just wait until the record they recorded over the summer comes out.

Killing Time is what I think is my favorite song by them that I've heard so I was stoked to find this video by Va Va Zoom on Myspace:

Lady Gaga Does It With "Bad Romance"

Damnit Gaga, you've topped yourself! Have you even SEEN Lady Gaga's new video for "Bad Romance"? Katy Perry said it best when she tweeted, "Yep, Gaga's game is on point, she's on another planet that no one else can get to right now... She's eating, breathing, living it. RAD."

At about 3 minutes in Lady Gaga's even wearing the shoes I want, bitch! Jk, loooooove youuuu. Seriously though, the shoes are like sea monsters on your feet, and I've been wanting them. I didn't think anyone would actually have them outside fashion week though. She really is rad.

Skins 4


Skins series 4 is almost here! Well it will be on January 21, only a couple short months away. For a little taste though the Skins E4 website posted a little taste of what's to come this upcoming season with an official trailer. Warning: it's probably more of a tease than a taste.

Plus, here's another little look from Skins Portugal:

Eating Healthier: Do It

We all know that the US has an obesity problem. Yes people, we're fat. Now that statement does not apply to everyone, but a large portion of Americans are fat simply due to the way they eat. Overeating, eating the wrong things, and eating on the go are major contributors to the obesity problem we have going on in this country. Fast food is a huge contributor since it's now basically built into our culture unfortunately.

If people were to change certain things about their diets and become more educated about their health, I think many people would change some of their habits and ways they think about food. I know I've been trying to eat a lot healthier lately, cutting out a lot of meat and trying to cut out a lot of unnecessary fats and sugars and instead add in a lot more vegetables and fruits. Now, I wasn't big to begin with, but it's still important to be conscious of what I eat. Plus, I feel tons better when I eat healthier.

Today a friend of mine posted a link to the following video that I think is important for people to see and think about. It's a Nutrition By Natalie video called Top 10 Worst Foods.



Luckily I don't eat many of the foods she mentioned. I cut out most soda and fruit flavored drinks that are filled with sugar long ago. The ones I do eat are in very low moderation. Except I did eat some bacon for breakfast this morning. It didn't even taste good. Yay empty calories!

This video led me to watching other videos on the Psychetruth Youtube channel. Here is Top 10 Best Foods so you can see the other side of the spectrum:



If you want to eat healthy on a budget like I do, here is Top 10 Cheap Health Foods, Better Body Nutrition Austin:



To improve my habits, I'd like to get on the coconut milk train soon. That sounds delightful. It's good that I like a lot of the foods they mention: lentils, berries, sunflower seeds, etc. I should start eating more spinach since it's such an easy and obvious addition to other foods that I eat.

Some of the videos are long winded, but they provide excellent information about eating and feeling better.
