Seriously I'm Silly

Sometimes I feel like I have these intense and very thought-provoking ideas, but then I forget them. I'm probably just being a loser about that though, because who has those kinda thoughts when your 16?

Okay....so its 2:26AM. There's no one to talk to. So I talk to the blog-thingy. I guess I'm very strange then. Whatever. It's all good right? So tonight, I got to listen to Australian radio, and I realize that I'm in love with Australian radio. They actually have radio stations devoted to pop music!!! It's called Hot30 something something. They interviewed Natalie Tran! That makes them officially kool. Yeah, I spell cool with a k now, but thats mostly because my C key is kinda broken so I'm trying to make it easier on me with the whole typing thingy...BUT ANYWAY, Australian radio is still AWESOME! I'm listening to it right now! Mostly because they play all these songs that I like.

Speaking of songs I like! I just listened to "I'm not your boyfriend baby" in its entirety for the first time ever. Why didn't anyone tell me it was a freaking fantastic song?? It's got a great music structure and its surprising how amazing the lyrics are. OMFGREPLAYJUSTCAMEONAUSTRALIANRADIO! I really like Meghan Tonjes' cover of that song though. You can listen to it here. It's quite pretty. She's a fantastic artist really. I've been seriously considering buying her album ever since I started listening to her music.

You know what's awful about about this blogger??? It doesn't have freaking Tahoma as a font option!!! Tahoma is my absolute favorite font to use. I dunno why, it just is. I guess it looks pretty nice. BUT THEY DONT HAVE IT ON HERE! THOSE BASTARDS SHOULD PAY!!!

...

...Aaaaaaaand I don't care anymore. *Throws out another...*Whatever. Heh, Australian accents are so friggin cool. I wish I had an accent. Maybe I do? But its the one accent that no one ever wants: American. America represents fat people and imperialistic tendencies. Who wants to speak that? Obviously I am not fat and/or have any imperialistic tendencies, but that doesn't even matter to the stereotypical eye!!! You know what they say about people from Switzerland? NOTHING! Because they haven't done anything stupid to get themselves in trouble!

Gah, it makes me want to move somewhere else, that isn't American-like. DUDE I COULD MOVE TO AUSTRALIA!!! They have awesome music! Its a matchmade in heaven! But seriously (in all modes of sillyness) I want to move somewhere out of the state I live in. Don't get me wrong, I love my Californias (No that isn't a typing error), but I just feel like going and experiencing some different weather for a change! At least if I get out, I can either get attached to somewhere else, or I can learn how lucky I am to live in the land of one season. Either/or, I just want to get out!

I miss youtubing again. I wish I could make a video and rant like I usually do, buuuuuuut it is late and I look kinda not attractive....because I've been looking at a computer screen for the past....*checks clock*....uh....Wow, like over seven hours.

Which segues into the fact that I am addicted to the internet. What I think I want to do, is go without internet/computer for a whole month. Then I will make a vlog everyday about what I did without the computer. The editing of the vlog will be the only computer time I will have and then one single post to twitter to promote it. Then it's back to the non computerized world!!! To me, it sounds completely terrifying. Would it make for good youtubing? I'll ask my group soon because I really don't know. OH! And I guess I could only tweet from my phone other than the promotional tweets. GAH! I dunno! I need to write it down on a list or something. I'm a big sucker for lists....and office supplies. No lie, I love the idea of organizing, but I kinda fail at the actual follow through.

Anyway, that is enough disjointed writing for one night. It's now 2:56 so that means I wrote all this in 30 freaking minutes!!! Hellz yes bitches!! I'm going to attempt sleep again. Probably be successful this time...

...Kool. Heh, heh...

Letters and Such!

I just wrote this letter to a collab channel. Please tell me if it was funny enough to be awesome!

So...Hello five jammin' people!

My name is CourtneyDax and I'm a junior in high school. No, that is
not my real last name but it's still kinda cool, right? Its short,
sweet, and to the point, like myself! (Seriously, freshmen are taller
than me!)
My video style mostly capitalizes on the concept of me having a
constant State of Awesome, which is EXACTLY like my real life.
(sarcasm win?) But in all seriousness, I usually just vlog and talk
about whatever pops into my mind. Most of the time, the topic is just
usually hilarious. I do thee most random schtuff because it makes my
subscribers laugh, which in turn makes me a happy panda (no really, I
say that in real life). ANDDD, If you read every single one of my
comments on any of my videos, you will read nothing but positive and
lovely comments of people telling me that I am as awesome as I like to
perpetuate on my channel. Trust me, its a humbling experience. I never
thought the internet community could be as supportive as it has been
until I got my big break guest starring on What the Buck's channel.
(Then I got 300 subscribers in three days. I made a video and I was
like "GAH! WTF MY LIFE!!!")

ANYWAY, since I just told you my Youtube life story, I guess that's
why I feel like I would have some mondo major fun being a guest star
on your channel, and would make your viewers laugh a bunch like you
guys do! I'm usually on the internet so I'll be flexible for any
Saturday that you might wanna throw at me! I'm like a football catcher
person person thingy! I'm THAT good!

Thank you for your consideration and your time,
CourtneyDax

P.S: Happy New Year! I'm sending this at 12:30 so I'm like "WOO!!
PARTY IN THE 2010 BABY!"

P.P.S: What does the extra P in "P.P.S" stand for anyway? Okay, so I
dunno if I am supposed to reccomend videos and all that shenanigans
but if I had to make a "Best Of" playlist, I would definately choose
"SPICY HOT WINGS!! Giggity?", "Awesome", and "How Ranting and Tacos
are Good for the Soul!". I make the wierdest names for videos
sometimes...well...I hope I make you laugh!

Okay so what did you think of that? Funny? Lame? Kinda cool but mostly fish?

2000s: A Gay Rights Victory?

So, for me personally, I consider these past years to be huge for the Gay acceptance movement. The list of famous people who have come out is a staggering number, to say the least. Oh, you wanna see that list? Well here are the two other blogs that give you pictures and accompanying articles of all the Gay men and Lesbians that have come out in the 2000s (The gay men's article is more of a Gay overview of the past 10 years but still very interesting.)

But what does it all mean? Well I think it means that my optimism levels are through the roof! I don't really have a good memory (at all) but I think that there was this situation in America back in the 80s and 90s where people actually had to worry about getting fired if their boss found out they were gay. AND people were trying to get Gay teachers fired because they might "infect" the children with their "indecent love passion-thingies"!! It's hard to think that this kind of stuff still happens in certain areas (and if you don't think I'm telling you the truth on that one, then you're just plain wrong). I feel lucky every day that I live in such a safe community right now, where I don't have to worry ever about that crap....Well, most of the time...

But the really horrible thing is that we still have sooooooooooooo much to do to get everyone protected. LGBT kids and adults are still being murdered in America because of who they are or what they support. Even people who support the Gay rights movement have been getting murdered as well. And it happens everywhere! Have any of you heard of a boy known as Lawrence "Larry" King? He was a 15 year old teen (not far off from my age) and he was shot to death by another boy that Larry had flirted with. This happened not two counties away from where I am living right now. It's absolutely terrifying sometimes when I think about it enough.

But despite all of that horribleness, I still can keep a positive attitude about the future. The media (and the Government to a certain extent) have mostly accepted Gay people, and that's the thing I hold on to for my future. Sure I can't get married in my state right now, but that doesn't mean it's going to be forever! Movements take time, especially for a group that is as in the gray as you can get. So, for now, I will be patient until it's my turn to start fighting my own rights battles. Until then, I'll just be as pleasant as I can be, in hopes that some random conservative will see me and realize that Gay people are just as normal as the rest of the world.

Starting Over

Well...hi? I haven't wrote in here in forever, not like I was ever good anyway. *sigh* I guess I still have the need to write about random things that happen in my life. It's not like I don't try to be as random as I can be everyday, (I blame Youtube for that one) but sometimes I actually enjoy being coherent every once in a while.

Blogging is good, right? I mean, its like a journal, but more....um, out there? Blogging puts things in perspective, and keeps you from venting to the wrong people. Like if you are mad at your friends for being dumb about their lives, (not that I have dumb friends right now or anything) then you can bitch and moan about it here! Yeah, this place is a good thing....maybe...

Anyway, I think I will use this more often then. Post things that chronicle the little moments in my life that make it that more awesome. Maybe even impart some silly teenage wisdom. Who knows? Maybe I might surprise you...Pssh, yeah right lady...
