Best of 08?

I missed last year b/c I fell out of the blogging world. But now, as I should be doing work, I'll make my list up now.

Music:

Best Albums of 2008

1. She & Him - Volume One
2. The Raconteurs - Consolers of the Lonely
3. Jenny Lewis - Acid Tongue
4. Vampire Weekend - Vampire Weekend
5. Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes
6.Kate Nash - Made of Bricks (came out in 07- but I listened to it so much this year and I didn't make a list last year, so I'm counting it!)
7. The Ting Ting's - We Started Nothing
8. Conor Oberst - Conor Oberst
9. Flight of the Conchords - Flight of the Conchords
10. Medeski, Martin & Wood - Radiolarian

Close Runner ups:
1. John Mayer - Where the light is
2. Beck - Modern Guilt
3. Britney Spears - Circus
(HA! Just kidding, but womanizer is a great song to listen to if you wish you had a cd player that skipped constantly)

I don't feel like doing songs right now, because they'd probably be from all the above named albums, and there are more than one on each so lets just say those albums topped my list all around.

Most Disappointing albums:

1. Jason Mraz - We Sing, We Dance, We steal things.
I like the first 2, maybe 3 songs. The rest of the album makes me feel kinda dirty and I just don't know why.

2. Thats about it...I can't say I have much good to say about that Coldplay album even though everyone seems to love it. The songs were kinda sleepy and whatever mixing they did to it makes it hard to hear. I will often stop on a song if I hear it on the radio, but it is not in heavy rotation on the ipod, I'll say that.

BEST LIVE PERFORMANCES

1. She and Him at Newport Folk Festival (others were good too, but this one was my favorite- although we got soaking wet!)
2. Cake- Starland Ballroom
3. Galactic - Irving Plaza
4. Derek Trucks - Starland Ballroom
5. Jack's Mannequin - RAMAPO!! (only b/c it was great atmosphere and nice that he came home to us)


FILM/TV

Best movies of 08 (saw some oldies, so they go in here too!)

1. Pineapple Express
2. Batman- The Dark Knight
3. Stepbrothers
4. Death Proof (I resisted, then I saw the light)
5. Criminal ( John C. Reilly)

Best TV Shows

1. It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
2. The office
3. Project Runway (Season 4) (2007)
4. LOST
5. The Daily Show

Worst TV Shows

1. Project Runway (Season 6...KENLY YOU HAVE FOREVER RUINED PR!)
2. Anything MTV put out this year (Paris Hilton's my new bff, anything Hills related, That desert island show of real world/road rules(does that show even exist anymore?) cast members, sex with mom and dad...etc.
3. Entourage. Vince has no job. Vince get job. Vince lose job. Eric and Ari fight and make up. Lloyd is gay. Vince has job? Rinse, repeat.

Middle of the road:

1. Degrassi. You know I will always love you and you going every which way. But I cannot keep up with all your new characters. All the little brothers and sister, Sav?, curly blonde headed kid, guy that looks like bil..I just can't take you all seriously. It might as well be called Degrassi: The newer new generation. This is kind of like when Saved by the bell tried to continue on and casted all those new kids to rule the halls of bayside. I think you're only getting away with it because you're canadian. But I need more backstory. That kid Danny went from young jerk to older nice kid and I have no idea why. What changed him? And how- of all the characters to keep around from the old season, do you only give us Emma, Manny and Liberty? Those are the 3 WORST characters and now they're my only hope to cling onto old degrassi. Even though I'm sure you know it was all downhill once Craig left the show. Now that Marco and Ellie are gone too it's basically just watching strangers getting pregnant and breaking up with each other every 5 minutes. Dear Degrassi: Reunion time ASAP.


A look back on my 07 predictions:

1. Borat will finally get old and Chauches will stop saying "HIgH fIVe!"
I think this came true. At least I hope it did.
2. People will get sick of all the pop punk....unless Fall Out Boy revives it again
From what I hear, FOB is still pretty popular. I at least got sick of the Pop punk so score one for me.
3. Some really good indie flicks from Sundance and weird spots
I have no idea? Indie flicks are always pretty good and I'm not really sure if I was thinking of a specific
4. I will be very poor, but hopefully get a good job after graduation
Bingo on the very poor, and got a pretty good job. No advancement on part A.
5. Some serious signs telling us we're all doomed cuz of global warming.
Of course, and we're working on it!
6. Craig Ferguson will be cool.
He is cool, I don't think people notice it though. Maybe with all this latenight reline up stuff though?
7. The Steelers are gonna bounce back from the crappy season and now loss of bill cower and shine once again
Well of course! Mike Tomlin is a great coach, even though they did make the playoffs in 07 they didn't go far. This year is looking good so far provided ben's concussion doesn't affect them too much.
8. The office is gonna be hugeee.
Wasn't it already? Unless I ment the season, which they have had some crazy episodes PB&J!
9. Best. Season. Of. Project. Runway. Yet.
Yes and no. Season 4 was definitely the best ever, but then they followed it right after with the absolute worst, and now this pending season 6
10. Get on the indie music bus.

sure.


New Predictions of 08:

1. Super bowl champs---PITTSBURGH STEELERS!!!!
2. Major job change...hopefully a move into the city with Adam
3. Attend at least 1 wedding?
4. 10 Engagement Announcements
5. Reunite with old friends
6. Fix my record player (should be coming true soon!)
7. I am long overdue for winning something. I think I'll win something this year.
8. The age of Seth Rogan and Judd Apatow will slowly draw to a close (sadness)
9. I will be sucked into becoming a Mets fan.
10. Flight of the Conchords comes back with a vengeance; while Entourage will flush itself down the toilet.

Conclusion:

This year has been something for sure. I had my first full year at my job and found my niche in the non profit sector. Now just to branch out. Gained a lot of self confidence in my skills so I hope to apply them to future jobs. I've been living on my own since aug of 07, and although the first year I had a roomate from hell, this year it's the total opposite getting to live with my best friend (Even though our schedules seem so hectic at times and I feel like I barely see her!). What else. I've definitely learned the art that is budgeting and have used it to somehow still survive on my low salary, even though it may be hard at times. I have an amazing boyfriend who has taught me a lot and I know is always looking out for me. My parents have been going through a lot financially and physically and I hope with all my heart I will be able to help support them as much as they have supported me, especially in these last few years. I took a fun roadtrip to Rhode Island with Adam and I hope we get to do something like that again this year, or at least take a long overdue vacation for the two of us. All in all this year has been filled with a lot of ups and downs, and this coming year I hope to have many more ups than downs, and I think it will. :)

Some Vices.


I think if I were about to dive back into the world of red meat again these would be my top three ways to do it:

1. Roast Beef Sandwich, on a kaiser roll, lettuce and a little mayo.
2. pork chops and apple sauce.
3. ok, i admit, a real hamburger would be nice.

Don't think I'm ready for it just yet b/c i'm never really craving these things. And I think if the actual thing was in front of me I'd probably lose my appetite. But the thoughts are nice right now.

Monday, January 08, 2007

Seeing how my last post was this same post, it's safe to say these are only gonna be coming once a year. (thats what she said) okay on to the best of 2006 list!

MUSIC

Albums of 2006
*disclaimer: I've kinda fallen out of the punk music scene....some bands i still like, but for the most part i've ventured out into other fields, and to do that, i've listened to a lot of older albums. Please be patient.

1. Electric Six- Switzerland
2. Gym Class Heroes - As Cruel as School Children
3. Cobra Starship - When the city sleeps, we rule the streets
4. Matisyahu - Youth
5. Ben Harper - Both Sides of the Gun
6. Mute Math - Mute Math
7. Block Party Soundtrack

Now to be honest, those are just the albums I listened to that came out this year that I really liked. Now for some albums i discovered this year, but didn't neccessarily come out this year:

1. IIIrd time out - John and Mary (wonderful bluegrass songs, if you disreguard the two big Jesus songs)
2. Gillian Welch - Time (The revelator)
3. Nightamare of you - Nightmare of you (only cuz i really heard of them this year, but the album came out 2005)

2. Justin - Sexyback
3. Cobra Starship - Church of Hot Addiction
4. Bright Eyes- Lua
5. Matisyahu - Youth
6. Beduoin Soundclash - When the night hears my song
7. George Harrison - I've Got my mind set on you (song of the summerrr)

1. Cobra Starship - Snakes on a Plane (Bring It)
2. Justin Timberlake - Sexyback
3. Matisyahu - Youth
4. HelloGoodbye - Here (In your arms)
5. 30 Seconds to mars- the kill



Most Disappointing Albums
1. The Early November- The mother, the machanic and the path
2. Hello goodbye - Zombies! Aliens! Vampires! Dinosaurs!
(ok i didn't get too many 'new' albums this year)

FILM/TV

2. "You won't"

2006 Reflection (taken from last year’s list)
Predictions For 2006
1.HelloGoodbye = even bigger, and maybe halifax, cuz of their little real world appearance Hellogoodbye yes, halifax no.
2. Hopefully ppl will finally get sick of American Idol, cuz really I can't take anymore stupid pop songs in the world. No, and the new season is starting again. I will still hold that prediction for next year tho. please?
3. The Early November triple CD will rule. If it doesn't get pushed back to far...I think some ppl liked it, i wasn't a fan, it was basically one TEN cd, plus two ICMAMLNB cds
4. More John Cusack moviessss oh they're coming.




New Predictions for 2007
1. Borat will finally get old and Chauches will stop saying "HIgH fIVe!"
2. People will get sick of all the pop punk....unless Fall Out Boy revives it again
3. Some really good indie flicks from Sundance and weird spots
4. I will be very poor, but hopefully get a good job after graduation
5. Some serious signs telling us we're all doomed cuz of global warming.
6. Craig Ferguson will be cool.
7. The Steelers are gonna bounce back from the crappy season and now loss of bill cower and shine once again
8. The office is gonna be hugeee.
9. Best. Season. Of. Project. Runway. Yet.
10. Get on the indie music bus.


Conclusion....
Well this list isn't as long and involved I guess as last years. I think either not much happened, or i just fell out of the know with new albums. Like for instance, Brand New, My Chem, and Saves the Day all came out w/ new albums, and I haven't heard any of them. But then there are albums that came out that i wanted to hear and didn't, i.e., beck, the beatles LOVE album, and Bob dylan (which i have, but not listened to yet). I guess I'm just not on the ball. But i did love Cobra Starship, Gym Class heroes, and Electric Six's new stuff. I'd just rather listen to old stuff. LIke that Beth Orton cd i got from like 96 but is pretty awesome.

In other news, I think the TV was pretty good....well the stuff i watched haha. I think 30 rock looked pretty good....I just never had time to watch it. Other than that, a lot of the new shows seemed to suck.

My personal year was something too. Never lacking surprise, worry, happiness, and sadness, it's all that you can expect from a year that involved me reconnecting with old ramapo friends, making tons more, and finally being able to drink legally. I drove down to maryland by myself for the first time and had a week i'll never forget (love my scousins and brousins!). I went to my first (and hopefully last!) AA meeting which was pretty crazy. But most of all, I think I've learned a lot about myself and I think I can accomplish a lot this year if i just stick to my guns...so i guess that's my 'new years resolution'. Stick to what I say, and get shit done.

Anyway, happy new year all, I wish everyone the best year yet.

"And all these stupid silly songs
keep trying to catch your ear

It's just so hard to persevere
And even if you listened
I never had much to say
Cause it's the same old song
I'm written for the day.."
The Mistrel's prayer

2. Mae:
"Hey! Wait! Knock me downs and I'll get up again.
Oh! Pain! A remedy that can erase your sting.
I'll keep holding, and I'll keep trying.
I feel this fight, it is slowly dying now but I feel painless"
Painless

3. Socratic-
"Lets take a walk down back to that playground
where we were just girls and boys, sand and toys,
nothing ruined our days besides the rain.
As we get older, it rains more often, we become toys
waiting for someone to pick us out of the sand.
To hold our hearts and help us understand."
B to E

4. The Academy is...-
"I'm not the type to forget about nights like this,
where every single move that I make is documented
and scored for style points.
The once ambitious one now holds the smoking gun.
And if I die in my sleep, are you still willing to be everything
you promised you would be?"
Classifieds

5. Jacks Mannequin-
"Hours pass, and she still counts the minutes that I am not there
I swear I didn't mean for it to feel like this
Like every inch of me is bruised, bruised.
Don't fly fast, oh pilot can you help me?
Can you make this last? This plane is all I got
so keep it steady now, Cause every inch you see is bruised"
Bruised

Woah! Post in the blog? Well there's a reason for it. I don't understand exactly why, and I did a search for it and i guess the answer may lie in the 2004 year in review (do you're own search to see what i mean) but i got this email saying the following:


Hi,

Its Daniel from http://rare-lyrics.com. lately I've been adding more information to our artist pages and I'm currently getting some quality head automatica links for our visitors. Anyway, I've added your site to our head automatica page. I would be very grateful if youwould link back to us at http://lyrics.rare-lyrics/H/Head-Automatica.html (Head Automatica Lyrics) If you would like us to make any changes to your text link even if you decide not to link back or would like more linking information, pleas just reply and let us know.

Well, I think thats quite nice of them to link me, but i really don't offer any useful information on head automatica, besides the fact that i think they had the catchiest songs of last year.

Which I'm sure if any head automatica fans actually clicked on this site, the outcome would be right inbetween completely useless and petitioning to get the 2 minutes that it took to click my link in their life back.

So, sorry that i'm listed on the head automatica links. I can say that i do enjoy their music very much, and you should probably check out glassjaw, even tho they aren't as dancy, still amazing.

here's all the links i can think of

the site i'm sure you've been to already: One
the site you should go to as well: Two
Cuz i know you're on myspace: Three

so yea. sorry for making you come here. I know this was a big waste of time.
