Lady Gaga

Gaga-original, 21st century phenomenon, talented inspirational artist







I’ve always enjoyed Lady GaGa’s songs and her music videos. But for some reason I’ve been…not obsessed with her, but a little more preoccupied, passionate with her songs lately. She writes and helps compose most of her songs. The song that inspired me to write a post about her is her latest single, The Edge of Glory. The lyrics are sooo good! Personally I think she is brilliant. Her tattoo on her left arm translates to…


“Confess to yourself in the deepest hour of the night whether you would have to die if you were forbidden to write. Dig deep into your heart, where the answer spreads its roots in your being, and ask yourself solemnly, Must I write?”

Numerous awards, countless singles, and a continual album making career.

Watch this video to hear that song. :) Ok now. That is my post.


P.S.-pull out your shades because tonight i'll be dancing in the flames

Sweet Tooth. Grape Soda. Purple Tongue.

Six-word memoirs. Love them.



six
-noun
1. one more than 5, one less than 7



memoir
-noun
1. personal observation of a previous event or personal life experience



I first heard about these short little reminiscences in an English class that I took. I think they are a great way to express different emotions and thoughts. I'm hooked.



My personal six-word memoirs

Stress, Laughter, Smiles, Frowns...Life's Soundtrack.























So beautiful. Wont ever leave again.








Daughter, Sister, Girlfriend, Friend, that's me.

I love triple chocolate ice cream.

In a hurry...can't find shoes.

Wake up. Brush teeth. Tie Shoes.

Blonde romantic enthusiast. More tissues please.

Sweet Tooth. Grape Soda. Purple Tongue. (The title of course)

Can I have your number please?

Need my bike..gas too expensive.

Out of orange juice...next complaint...

My dream is to ballroom dance.

Friends are crazy..example-Chelsea Gloria

That is enough for today. When I first got the assignment in my class I was clueless. Pretty positive I could go all day now.

Blogging 411

Hello all...or no one. To anyone who has even considered or thought about starting a blog, DON'T DO IT! I'm only kidding, but be ready to suffer through confusion, rage, and impatience. In all truth I think blogs are quite interesting and intriguing. Many uses for them...

1. A way to get by from not talking to relatives on the phone
2. Express emotional drainage
3. Just addicted to any social internet site (i.e. Blogspot, Facebook, Twitter, and the oh so remembered MySpace)
4. Post stalker-like pics of celebrities
5. Practicing to be the future Seymour Hersh of the New York Times

Whatever the reason may be...creating the blog itself might have been the most difficult thing I have ever done. But thanks to the many people who helped...(Lauren). Why can't it be as easy as Facebook or as simple has uploading a picture on Twitter?? Well..because blogs are for people who take pride in writing and have the patience even knowing the fact that no may ever read a single post. So..ready to create your own blog?! Here are my simple easy steps to do it and what would of put me out of my misery.

How to make your blog:

1. Go to http://www.blogspot.com/ and click the ORANGE box that says get started

2. Start making your new account, as in put in your e-mail and set a password

3. Choose your subject (refer to 5 uses listed above)

4. Go to edit profile to upload photo, post display name, personal info


5. Need a template now? (Which is the background) Go to view profile then click on your blog. Then at the top right corner click on design. There is where you will do mostly everything to your new awesome blog.

6. In the top left corner it will say template designer. Click on it!

7. Under background you can upload your own photo or choose from their selection.

8. Under adjust widths, that is where you center a header, make blog space wider, or make the sides more narrow.

9. Back on the design page there is a box that reads gadget. That is where you will add your own pictures or text. The gadget HTML/JavaScript is where you put codes, such as internet pictures or site backgrounds. Such as www.shabbyblogs.com That is where I got my background. The gadget picture is where you can upload a picture from your computer or from the web.

10. Ready to post! Go to dashboard at the top right corner and go to NEW POST.

Yeah well...it may or may not help. They are very simple instructions but it will help if you were completely clueless like me. I'm stoked to start my blogs even if I only have one reader...myself.

I have now completed my first post EVER! And I still feel the same as I did before I wrote it. Until next time.
