08.

I've actually been thinking all day on what to write in this blog, and it took me forever, I'm not just saying that either, and I never really came up to a decent conclusion, so this blog is just dedicated to my general babbling.

This week for me has been a real low starting from Wednesday. You should all know if you have been reading my posts that I had my english exam and so forth, and if you've only just seen mine blog or whatever, then simply scroll down and check for yourself, and don't forget about my other posts either. Now besides from that, I was reading the synopsis for the future Bones episodes, I SHOULD NOW SAY THAT IF YOU DON'T WANT ANY SPOILERS DO NOT READ ON, and if you watchBones or have heard of it, read about it and so on, then you should know that they were planning to kill off one of the characters, and they decided on an intern later on after they'd revealed they were killing somone, and If you know who I'm on about, I SO WANTED Daisy to be the intern to die, she is the worst character for me on the show from time to time, she's dating Sweets which is annoying, but she is all up and front and never shuts up, but if you're reading and want spoilers, she is sadly not the one to die, but that isn't my worst spoiler, after reading the second to last episode, I learned that they were killing off Vincent Nigel-Murray, and for you Bones fans out there, you know that this intern is the sweetest and cutest along with Wendell, and he of course has a full on British accent and loves facts, and I was just so speechless when I read that he was going to die. I think they gave him a sweet leave off, if you've read it, the sniper (I can't remember this fellows name) is in position to kill Booth, but it of course it misses Booth and hits Nigel-Murray, Booth tried to push him out of the way, but the bullet hit Vincent in his chest, and he dies in Booths arms, saying 'Don't leave me', or 'Don't let me go' or even something else, I can't remember, I only read it, I plan on not doing so again because it made me feel quite sad, as I have stipulated and the rest of the show is seeing all the characters cry and I don't believe I will be able to take it when I'm watching the show because I know I'll cry to. I just REALLY, REALLY, REALLY can't wrap my head around it, first it was Zack Addy, and now it's Nigel-Murray, why couldn't they get rid of/kill Daisy, huh? So my point being after learning that, I was miserable the rest of Wednesday and most of Thursday, and I am still feeling it now, no doubt I'll be feeling worse when it comes on. But yeah, that is my spoiler for Bones if you didn't already know it, and if you have read it, and didn't want to know about the spoiler, it is your own fault because I warned you at the beginning. 

So from Thursday afternoon I was cheered up a little in School, talking to my friends and other countless stuff I found interesting when then I started to check through Twitter as I ALWAYS DO NOW and saw that 3 characters were leaving Hollyoaks, now at first I'm looking at it like 'Well, as long as it's not a character I like and it's someone like Brendan or Jacqui then I'm prefectly fine', but no. It is never exactly what I wish it was, DO NOT READ ON IF YOU DON'T WANT HOLLYOAKS SPOILERS, and I learned it was 3 actors I loved to persue other careers, now I'm all up for that, don't get me wrong, and everyone deserves to move onto better shows, but when I learned that it was Duncan, Ricky & Lee leaving it made me 100 times more sadder, along with the spoiler from Bones. It just seems every show I love is getting rid or killing someone off. And I bet some of you, who actually have read this are probably thinking 'They're are just shows, get over it', now, as entitled to your opinion as you are, I've spent years of my life watching TV shows, and so help me god I've got so into them I can't help but voice my anger and sadness. If any of you watch Criminal Minds, then you know that they got rid of Paget Brewster and AJ Cook from the show, and I was devastated by that, if you were to then you understand my pain about loosing a character or characters you love, but there is a bit of good news in that because AJ Cook is coming back, and now all they have to do is get rid of Seaver and all is somewhat good for me in Criminal Minds, but in Bones and Hollyoaks I really don't know what I'll do without those characters AND THEY ARE ALL MALES. I try not to be really, really, sexist, but I can't stand Female characters very much, and if I do, it's on the off chance that I like them a lot.

But yeah, that is pretty much me on spoilers, and I felt sad all of Thrusday sad after reading that, and now I know that I will have to attempt to watch them as be as interested, especially in Hollyoaks,Bones I might recover from. Anyways, I want you guys to check out the links below, one is from What The Buck Show's other channel, another is Glee's new original song they shall be singing at the end of the series, if you live in the U.K then you haven't seen it, so check that out to, and don't forget to click on my links bar to go follow and check me out on Twitter, would be much appreciated! I just hope there isn't anymore bads news or anything that can result in me feeling terrible, because I don't like having the feeling very much;

Thanks for reading! Also tomorrow I hope not to sound so drab! & another thing, by the 27th I'll give you a new link to my new blog because this is actually a free trial, and I refuse to pay money to write what I think, that isn't what I do, so, till tomorrow and up to the 27th of this month.

07.

I didn't have any exams, or even an English lesson today, so I'm not going to babble on about any of those two things today, although, I have given them a mention. 

Todays blog is honestly going to be shorter than any other blog I've done so far, well, I'm counting on it, and the reason todays blog is going to be shorter is because well, I don't actually have as much to talk about, besides from reviewing my opinion on Lady Gaga's new songs. At this current moment, I'm just listening to her newest and recent song 'Hair', and because I'm listening and haven't fully reviewed it yet, I'll leave that one till last.

ATTENTION.

I don't actually want anyone to be upset, or offended by anything I'm going to put, it may not even be any of those two things, you might agree, you might not, that is you're decision and I do not object to anyone's opinion, except abusive ones, because I'm free to write but I want, but not at the expense of people telling me horrid things, maybe you're own opinions, but not cruel ones, but I'm not up for people who are cruel in their opinions, just honest and won't terribly hurt my feelings, and besides, if you don't want to read my opinion, don't read it, because it is you're own fault for reading it, but I'm not going to be mean, or abusive in any way to Lady Gaga's songs, just what I think about them at the moment, as I could always change my mind. So if you want to read, and have a sense of decent opinion, go aheard, or you can glance or click on the links I'm going to include, and even just scan it if you want, but do whatever really.

The first song I wish to review from Lady Gaga's recent tunes is 'Judas', because I believe this is the first out of the three I'm going to write about. Now, from the start, I love it, the tune is repetetive, especially at the part of 'Ju-da, Ju-da-da-da, Ju-da, ju-da-da-da' and then it's better when she does that 'Aaaaah-aaaaaaah-ah-ah-ah-aaaaaah', but then afterwards, she gets a little low in tone for my liking, but this is just the beginning, and I still have the like other 2 minutes to listen to. So next, she sings the lyrics 'When he comes to me, I'm ready, I was his feet with my hair everyday' and I like the way this brings it up to the chorus, where it picks up in pop and she starts to sing higher, but, the first time I heard it, I only realised after the chrous line when she sings 'I'm just a holy fool, oh baby he's so cruel, but I'm still in Judas, baby', that I think it clicked in my head that she was singing about Jesus, If I'm right, don't believe I'm stupid if I realised it that far in, because it was the first time I heard it, remeber, and it just hit me, and if I'm wrong, tell me otherwise or what the song is actually about, because I'm actually confused, but my point being if it is about Jesus, in my own opinion, I didn't like it as much after I realised it, because I believe myself that the song glorifys him, and I'm not a religious person at all, so I kind of feel annoyed that she is singing about him in a way, but if Lady Gaga is religious, and she wants to sing about anything revolving around it, that is perfectly fine, but I just don't like anything that mentions religion, because I'm Agnostic (not Atheist as so many would assume), and for those of you who don't know what it means, Agnositic is when you only believe in what you see (kind of like Science), and if you know what it means, and are one, maybe you'll understand. People believe that although Jesus may have existed, he was not actually the son of God and was a VERY devout Christian (mine & others opinions, remember?). But moving on, I just don't want to listen to someone preaching about respecting religion, NO OFFENCE OR HATRED INTENDED, please, just remember that alright? I also know what some of you may think aswell, 'if you don't like it, don't listen to it', and I don't listen to it now, unless I hear someone putting it on, or it's on a music channel, and as it is a Lady Gaga song, who I do like, thought I'm not a Little Monster like some of her hardcore fans, I like listening to some of her music, because some of them are not about religion, and well, some are, they are also catchy, and I DO NOT put or mean hate on her. For the actual video, I love her outfits, always have done, I like anyone who isn't afraid to wear what they wish, if they can pull it off, and of course, she can, and I loved each different outfit and hairstyle, like I do in each, well, most songs she does. Now, as of the pausing part, with the water gushing and all of that, I don't know about you, but in my opinion, I think I needed the toilet after hearing that, and if people who did need the toilet would probably have really,really needed to go, great in the video none the less, but terrrible listening to it after about 9 drinks. and then you have the end of the song, when you listen to the chorus, and so on. That's actually my review for this song, don't like it, well, don't think harshly, because like I believe everyone is allowed their opinion, SO AM I. The link for the song on youtube is below if you want to listen to it, and I'm apologising to die-hard Gaga fans, but I'm not one of you, and I can like/dislike or think a song is O.K if I wish;

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wagn8Wrmzuc

The second Lady Gaga song that came out is none other than one of the most talked about references so far, even done on Glee, and for me, a song that appears on Glee has to be popular, and I mean, they do 80's stuff, so I LOVE listening to music from Glee, maybe not all, but most, and this song is, if you've guessed it, is 'Born This Way', and although I like it, as the lyrics are so meaningful, and I truly mean that, I mean, an example in this lyrical paragraph below;

No matter gay, straight or bi,
Lesbian, transgendered life.
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born to survive.

That paragraph has to be my favourite, as I believe labels should be saved for tins and wrappers, and I love the song, their is NO fault with the song whatsoever, the tune is fantastic, and I would listen to it over and over, so honestly, my review for this song is a two thumbs up, because I have no more thumbs, but what I do want to say is what this song has annoyed me wih, along the lines of people. I've heard people always use the excuse 'it's because I'm born this way', on pretty much everything, and I don't think people are respecting that the song is about those who have been born upon or have had bad times, not when someone calls you a bitch or something. I believe you weren't born to be a bitch, unless you were, then I'm not going to like you much. I might be over-opinionating there, but I believe that people shouldn't over use it. and that is actually a smaller review, because there was not much fault with that song, and that's my honest review, although most of it was towards people who use the phrase, and I did enjoy the costumes, like always. The link if you want to listen to Lady Gaga's version and/or Glee's (both of which are actually the videos of them singing the song), then click either or both of the links below;

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTvuRSXYzrU

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Widfun4HjPY

My third and final song, which I said I would do last because I had only just heard the song and it's quite new, I only found one video on youtube, but reviewing it now, I say you should listen to this one the most. HONESTLY IT'S GREAT. It's my favourite out of the 3 I have reviewed. I mean, understanding that it is partly about hair, it's catchy, well sung, the lyrics are easy to follow, and I think it'll be a great hit, maybe not as a big hit as 'Born This Way' but it should be close! Now that I think about it, it's another song that can relate to people now that I've listened to it another 15 or so times, but I think I'll let you guys judge that for yourself, because honestly, I don't know how to put it into words. This is my shortest review so far, but that's because I can't really add anything else at the moment. But you guys are free to judge for yourselves by cliking on the link below, it's not the video, but it's the song, so that is actually good enough;

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Okq8xHrIZ8I

I've actually just read over what I have put, and it seems that 'Judas' is the one I did the biggest review on, and it was my least favourite. If you didn't get that the first time you read it, or glanced, even scanned it, well, now you do if you listen to it. If you feel I haven't reviewed any of the songs enough, and have some suggestions that I could agree with to put down, just feel free to tell me, nothing horrifically offensive, otherwise I won't listen, although YES, you are entitled to you're opinion, but if it is harsh, keep it in you're head. The saying does go 'If you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything', or something along those lines, I might have got that wrong, but oh well, it is of course on the same basis. Read/Glance/Scan and think what you want, say what you want, unless it is something I have mentioned just before this sentance.

There is a new episode of what What The Buck Show, so go check that out aswell, and then I'm also going to give you another Glee link for their re-creation of 'For Good' from Wicked, because I love every song from Wicked, except maybe 'Wonderful', I don't know why, I'm just not keen on that one very much, but anyways, LISTEN TO IT, because it is ALWAYS on repeat, along with Lady Gaga's new song 'Hair'. But I'm blabbing, so click links, suggest all of the songs, even the Glee ones, I don't care if you've heard them or not, well I do care, but if you understand what I mean, then that's actually excellent.

I am also sadly aware that I lied and made this a long post again, I can't help it, once I start I writeEVERYTHING until there is no more for me to add/write or remember. So I hope you forgive me, although it is my post of reviews and opinions, kind of like my Eurovision one, I like to review, but just SUGGEST IT TO PEOPLE and yourself of course as it'd be much apreciated. I can't tell you how long my next blog will be tomorrow, and I'm not going to make an assumption in the fear I will get it wrong, or lie again. So, cheers for doing whatever you do when you read my blog page, if you do, and think what you will, I don't mind, unless it is hateful, then I do. Anyways, here is the link for Glee's 'For Good', listen/replay and do what you do with music, just enjoy it;

You have to understand, youtube sucks, so that is actually why I have posted a Tumblr link to the song, so listen to it there alright? And don't forget the What The Buck Show link, because well, the bloke is awesome.

Till tomorrow again, and I'll find something to talk about, hopefully, or it'll just be a babble post, I don't know, really, but yeah, tomorrow.

Alana.

06.

I don't believe this blog shall be as big as yesterdays, but in all honesty, it can go either way, and you can read it, glance through it or scan through aswell, like I'd believe most people who read this would do, because I actually do write a lot, but that's because it's me, and I like to get things down. I also attempt not to forget anything. But this blog can be short or long, depending on what you or I think it is, and how much I'm actually going to write about.

I want to first off say, that like I've mentioned in yesterdays and some previous blogs, that I had my second English Exam today, and it was on poetry, but what got me, and cheered me up a little, was that only one of the questions was a poetry question, while the other was asking me to read and describe. I didn't know that would happen on the test, so for the hour at lunch before I had to sit it, I believe I stressed and worried myself into oblivion, and it's really nice how many people will tell you that everything 'will be alright' and how 'I won't fail, I'll be fine', even though they aren't actually sitting the exam, or have already done it. But I do like encouragment, so that got me a little bit reering to go. But yeah, after that hour passed, I sat it, looked and it, and went through it. I believe I should or could have filled more pages, but I wrote everything that I was thinking, maybe some giberish also, and then there is the fact that my hand writing is tiny and joined (I'll show a photo eventually, just giving an example, or I'll post the grade I got, a bit personal, but it is my blog, and I like to share a few things). Apart from all that, I think I did alright, like my Monday one, but I guess in the end, the grades will either prove me wrong or right, I don't really know. I should also mention the fact that the bigger questions were worth 27 marks, which nerved me a little, and I forgot to do my stupid paragraphs, that I seem capable of doing on my blog, but apparently not until it's to late on my exam. Just brilliant.

Now, todays blog isn't just about me updating about how my english went, so don't panic, or do, or whatever you readers do, alright. I'm actually doing it on New Bands, because I do promote, like on myyoutube blog, and I like to get the word around and give people new things to enjoy, I mean, people like to learn about new things don't they? Otherwise it'd be quite boring if I were living a life of nothing new, although, I do pretty much love old stuff, I sound like a hypocrite, but I'm honestly not, and I'm saying my simple opinion. But moving on, I keep delaying or moving onto something else. I'm just going to give you guys some music suggestions, because they are fantastic, they are all boy bands, because in reality, the onlg Girl Band I believe that I like is The Saturdays and then that's it. I then just listen to male artists, male bands, and female singers. 

My first band I'd like to promote is The Downton Fiction. I just want to say that this band really are incredible, and I'm honestly not just saying that. I will put a link below, but first, I'm going to do this on my other New Bands that I'm telling you about, and I'm going to list the songs from one of their albums, and because these bands are new, I'm pretty sure they only have one album out at the moment, so I'll just post the only or first album I see. Now, with The Downtown Fiction like most of the new bands I find, I found on Twitter, I keep mentioning Twitter in practically all my blogs, but I just want to get the hint out, and sometimes it just happens and my blogs that I do, do infact mention Twitter, but just keep reading. Now, when I went to click on these fellows link, I saw the amount of people following them. Now, if you know anything from Twitter, that if a band has quite a lot of followers, then they must be popular, and I don't, I mean this, I don't just go for popularity, but I knew they'd have to be good, so I thought, why not have a listen to them, and I clicked on their link to their own page, and on the left, they let you listen to their new album that's came out, and that is called 'Let's Be Animal's', and I LOVE it. Seriously, guys you must listen to that album, and the lyrics are greatly written, unlike some bands these days, so, the album listing is;

• Thanks For Nothing.
• Freak.
• Stoned.
• I Just Wanna' Run.
• She Knows.
• Let's Be Animals.
• Wake Up.
• Medicine For You.
• Alibi.
• Tell Me A Lie.
• Loosing My Mind.
• Sierra.
• A Wonderful Surprise.
• Hurt Me So Good.

My favourite personally, has to be 'Thanks For Nothing', it's so amazing to listen to, and yes, that is actually the track listing, and the cover is so cute, that you really need to check it, buy it or whatever. Now, they do their own clothing wear, as well as accessories, which I do plan on buying myself, and if you were to, that'd be excellent! Now, their official channel is here, along with their Twitter just below it;

http://www.thedowntownfiction.com/

http://twitter.com/#!/downtownfiction

I really hope that you guys check them out & begin to love them as much as I do, or at least like them, and suggest them to your friends.

My next band is one that I have known for a while, and they are School Boy Humour, now this band has changed quite a while since they first started, and some have left, some have joined, but that doesn't really matter all that much, because honestly this band makes simply brilliant music, and they even sing with other artists, like Jeffree Star, so I think that you should be interested, depending on whether or not you have actually heard of Jeffree Star, but I do believe that School Boy Humour will be singing with other artists, even ones that maybe you guys have heard of, hopefully. I'll admit, besides from the fact that they are amazing, they give shout outs to almost all their fans, just like any other band that I'll mention in this blog, but they just seem to do it a little bit more, not that I'm making them seem like they care more than any other band, I'm just blabbing on, sorry. These fellows track listings for their album 'School Boy Humour', which yes, isn't inventive, but I can't complain because of the songs on there, now the track listing is;

• Paint Me Envy.
• Camera Shy.
• Turn It Up.
• Please Stand Up.
• Good To Meet You.
• This Is Your Life.
• Cheating Myself.
• Don't Look Back.
• This World.
• Everyone Who Breathes.
• Lets Talk Trust.
• What If.

If you're curious as to which is my favourite song, then that would be 'Camera Shy', and that I want to make it clear that this album is from the older days, and that two new songs have been created, called 'Calorfornia Love', which is the song featuring Jeffree Star, and then 'Show Me', which is dueted withSavannah Outen. You'll find their link below, along with, yes, again a Twitter account, and I also want to mention, that sadly, these lads don't have their own page yet, which is a bit of a hinderance, but you'll find them here on the link below, aswell as the Twitter link;

http://www.stickam.com/schoolboyhumor

http://twitter.com/#!/SchoolBoyHumor

So, check them out to! My third New Band is going to be The Rocket Summer. These boys have great voices, and they aren't hard to forget either, they are sweet and funny, and although I haven't met them, I was tweeted by Bryce Avary once, the lead singer of the band, and it was of course wonderful. I've pretty much used every other describing word I can think of on all the other suggestions, but that's because I actually love them all! and my vocabulary seems to be lacking, but apart from that, you may aswell take each great word from each of the New Bands I've suggested and just imagine them on all my suggestions, because it would seem such a waste if I were to re-mention them, or repeat them, I'll just have to go with my lack of words in this blog, besides from what I'm writing. ANYWAYS. The Rocket Summer couldn't be a better band to listen to in the summer, and I'm serious, they actually would make a great listen to when you're lying in the sun. Sadly, I don't know whether they sell shirts or accessories, so I'm afraid you'll have to find out for yourself, or I'll check and try and mention it in a blog, along with a link of course, and the same goes with School Boy Humour, because I don't believe that they do merchandise either, so sorry for the lack of clothing or bracelets and what not. Now, they're track listing for an album that's recently came out is;

• Break It Out.
• So Much Love.
• Do You Feel.
• Save.
• All I Have.
• High Life Scenery.
• A Song Is Not A Business Plan.
• Taken Aback.
• Colours.
• Run To You.
• Hold It Up.
• Waiting.
• So In This Hour.

I actually have to favourite songs from this album, which are 'So Much Love' and 'Save', I love all of the others aswell, but I guess everyone has their favourites, now this time The Rocket Summer actually have their own website, that I seem to stalk and follow alot, so below, along with Bryce's Twitter, which is basically The Rocket Summers aswell, so they're below;

http://www.therocketsummer.com/

http://twitter.com/#!/TheRocketSummer

And of course, I'm actually only doing three new bands, because the other one I was planning to just didn't interest me as much, but who knows, I might do another blog about New Bands and include that band. I really hope that you readers actually check them out and enjoy them! And don't forget to click on the links and follow me on Twitter, but I bet you haven't fogotten, because I tell you in almost each post, but it would be greatly appreciated.

Don't forget either to check out What The Buck's second Vlog channell below, and I warn you, there are spoilers, but who cares, it's great;

http://www.youtube.com/user/peron75#p/u/0/bH1U28powjE

I don't believe I'll have all that much to talk about tomorrow, but I say that almost all the time, and end up writing a bundle anyway, but I believe myself it will be shorter (I keep telling myself), and I will also talk about Lady Gaga's new songs, so check in tomorrow!

Alana.

05.

Posting is going to revolve for me after school, until about next week and my other exams, the weekends should just be fine, as I don't have school then, but then again, that was pretty obvious.

Now, I didn't have any exams today, so it was all good, I do however, have an exam tomorrow, my second part of my English, which I have mentioned in my other posts, but tomorrows is a poetry exam, and I clearly know I shall fail that one. I don't like poetry, mentioned yesterday, and I can't stand the thought of having to do work on it for an exam mark, when I'll never use it again. But then again, I sound like someone who would use that excuse for something like R.E, or Algebra in maths, now, I don't like R.E, and I agree fully with that, but I like maths, and algebra, so really, I wouldn't complain about that.

Besides from the mention of school, and exams, that no-one really is going to care about very much, I want to make this blog about youtubers. I'll probably mention some of them in all or some of my next blogs, or even 1 or 2 in the future, but the reason I'm mentioning them is because I enjoy their channels, I think they're videos should be watched, and because basically, I can.

Now, I'll start off with a music channel, this one is Musicismydrug1994, now, she's new, hasn't been on very long, but I knew her, and her voice is REALLY good, and I think it'd mean a lot to her, if she got new subscribers, people viewing her actual videos, and comments and likes to. I'm not just choosing her because we were friends, but it's just a channel I chose, if anyone wants to suggest any I can promote, then simply comment, which should be obvious by now. But she sings covers, because she hasn't become wildly known yet, or has written any of her own. Her link is below;

http://www.youtube.com/user/MusicIsMyDrug1994

Now, she doesn't always update all the time, but she does actually put music onto her account, so you just have to keep you're eyes peeled, or check out and enjoy the one's she has already published, and then when you check out her account, then check out her twitter and follow her! When you've also checked her page, don't forget to check and follow mine, which is just by the side in the links, I should remind you, I do follow for follow, but only if you actually tweet, and now the link for her twitter is below;

http://twitter.com/#!/AllyGreenMusic

My next youtuber that I should move onto is TheMunchKym, now she is already partly famous onyoutube, so you might have already heard of her, but if you haven't, she generally does her vlogs and youtubing on pretty much anything she wants, or needs to mention. I should say, she did a T-Shirt give away once, and I believe she'll do that again, and I just want to say, you should actually check it out, and take part, but only when she does it, I for one, cannot say if or when she'll do it, so don't question or ask me, because I won't have the answer, sorry. She's great at advice and boosting you up, if you look for her video 'Beautiful', that should put a smile on you're face, like it did on mine. She's also gives links to things she's experienced, or filmed or believed should be checked out, so after watching her videos, and checking out her channel and even suggesting it, I do encourage you suggest it to people, because thats kind of part of the purpose of this blog, but continuing on, the links should be at the bottom of each video, depending on what the video is actually about. Also, get this, she does her own T-shirts, and one of the links should direct you there, so you can enjoy her videos, aswell as getting a shirt saying that you enjoyed her videos. ISN'T THAT GREAT! Now, her link is below;

http://www.youtube.com/user/themunchkym

So go CHECK IT OUT, I mean, people are up for new things right? Then it is great if you're one of those people, now go, go, go when you see this! I also should mention, that she too, again has a Twitter account so go follow and check that out to, blah, blah, blah, so her Twitter link is below;

http://twitter.com/#!/themunchkym

Now, onto a third youtuber, who is pretty much fabulous, and very, VERY popular amongst the youtubers, so if you haven't heard of this man, then you have never been on youtube, and if you haven't heard of this man and go on youtube, you must click this link, because you are definitely missing out! This man can be described a thousand times over with a thousand more words, and if you're wondering who this man I'm glorifying is, it is none other than, named from his channel, What The Buck Show, now, of course, the reason why I'm preaching this man to you, is because he is just one of my favourite youtubers onyoutube, and I tell no lie either, he is a daily vlogger, which is even better than most channels because they hardly vlog as much as he does, unless there is anyone out there that does, then I must know who this person is, and I apologise of course to the other channels that I believe are not as great or popular as his, but, I know it isn't all about popularity, but this man is pretty much an obvious sign of it. Now, his videos, when he does his show, because he also has another account, which is just as great, as I have checked out, he vlogs about ANYTHING, and it's incredible, it's just about daily thoughts that we would go on about, aswell as his own, and he just puts them down so well, and he also shows pictures, presents videos, and just like my last youtuber he too puts links down, but I should make it clear that he also suggests and appreciates other people youtube channels aswell! He's done about 6 or more, telling you about different channels he believes has the 'Buck Factor', which is how he rates channels, and anyone that is pretty much on that video, is great, brilliant, needed to watch or deserving! He does put the links below, but he also links them as you're watching the video, so you can just click on whichever one you find easier or just want to. Now, he does cover most things, like sports and politics, and talks about things that go on and happens during the news, but he'd actually rather talk about the events on Glee, or something random about Miley Cyrus, or anything that the younger AND older generation can relate to! I have obviously written a lot about this one youtuber, but this is because he is so fantastic, and I just really want you to watch and begin to love his show, just like his over 1 million subscribers! His link is below;

http://www.youtube.com/user/WHATTHEBUCKSHOW

and he also has a Twitter account, which you would probably have figured considering the fact that I mention each time that they have links, but he also blogs aswell, which gives him even more praise from me! Now his Twitter link is just below, and if you're not following him, then do so, if you are, you're brilliant to me;

http://twitter.com/#!/buckhollywood

Can you believe it, I write all of that, and I'm still not finished, if you've only come to read or just clicked on the links then that's cool, I just like to add in the detail, and if you've had the decency or the patience to read all of what I've put, then you are just dedicated and a great reader, much thanks if you've read this!

For my 4th youtuber, I've decided upon a young Irish lads channel, BriBryonTour. Now, the reason for the choice in this channel, is because although this youtube account is new to me, although it's been there for a year or so, is that he's such a great person really, his channel is basically him filming all the things he wishes to do, before he dies. Which is a great thing to do, really spirited and enthusiastic, and is something kind of what other people should be doing, it adds the excitment to life, and people should get to do what they wish, before we all just drop down one by one (that actually didn't sound very positive, but ah well). Now, I've decided to let you click on his link to give you a reason as to why he's decided to do his videos in the first place, because instead of just reading it off me, you should get to learn it yourself by the man behind the video, but it is caring and sweet, and that when you get onto his page, and you'll understand what I mean, that I want you to donate to foundation, because it really is deserving. Now, another great aspect to this channel, is that you can give suggestions for his videos, and that many famous Irish people have appeared, such as the ever lovable twin duo Jedward and even the X-Factor judge Louis Walsh! They've each featured at the beginning at least one of his videos, and it's great that even famous people are taking part in youtube channels also! So, before I right anymore pointless, well, informative stuff to me, pointless to you, stuff, you actually have to check out his channel for yourself! So, the link is of course below;

http://www.youtube.com/BriBryontour

And yes, of course, I do have this fellows Twitter account for you to follow! I mean, why wouldn't I? Now, if you've got the hint by now, go and follow him, or the other links that I have given to you, because even though some of them already have enough appreciation, or not enough, they all deserve more, and I want you to check them out if you haven't already! Try something new! I was going to add at the end, 'today' but then I would have realised that it would have either been a Sainsburys quote or a Marks and Spencers one, and if it isn't neither, or it's another one, then tell me, because I'd believe that would be great information for me to know.

Now, CHECK EACH OF THEM OUT, and do so each time they make or vlog a new video, check out their links, and even suggest it to others, which is kind of the ENTIRE point of this blog, that I should mention yet again, except for the part about my day/English exam that I am going to fail tomorrow. I also wouldn't mind if you check out and follow me on Twitter, or any of the other links that I have when you, or if you were to click on the Links button, that would be much abliged! Now, thank you for taking the time to click on the youtube and Twitter links I have given you, and I'm sure they'll be greatful for more fans or friends or whatever you want to be. and for those that have just glanced, scanned, read, or just moved from, I guess thanks for that aswell.

Again, until tomorrow's blog, that might not/might be as long.

As I had mentioned yesterday, I had an English Exam this morning, and I don't believe I did all that terrible. As in this case, the exam I believed I had today, wasn't the one after all. and what I mean by that is I believed that I had a poetry exam, but instead it was writing to describe. Not that any one truly cares for that detail or anything, but I like to add that in.

The point that I am trying to get at with what I've put is the fact that it turned out easier than previously hoped. Given that this was the first of of 2 of my official English exams, I don't want to get cocky in case I fail, or I don't want to make it seem it was too easy, then I fail it. I'm just babbling and panacking at the same time here.

But point be given I did my English exam, I have another on Wednesday and I'm not looking forward to the second one because that is based on poetry, and just a little note, I hate poetry.

Reading back over what I put, I've realised I made that more complicated then it needed to be, but I can't really delete it and try to explain it again, because that's actually about as close as I'm going to get in putting all of that down. If it makes any sense to you at all then I aplaud you.

I also yesterday, started off a post. Now this post was on a social site that people tell me not to talk about, but I can post a link, as it is my own, but just keep it quiet, right.

http://thejokerthefool.tumblr.com/post/5508706125/the-u-k-gave-ireland-12-points-when-it-came-to-ireland

Now, feel free to read through the comments, and think what you think. I suggest it, because I won't tell anyone not to have their own opinion. What I'm trying to tell and make people understand was when I posted this link, it was just a thought. I'm from the U.K, so I thought it was unfair that Ireland only gave us 6 points, while we gave them twelve, and I'm sure that I'm not the only one either. and yes, can you belive it, I'm still reeling from Eurovision on Saturday, but it's because I'll never ever get enough of it, and I hate that I have to wait another year for it, that's to darn far away, but basically, what I was supposed to say before I lost track, was that I meant no offence to Ireland or anything. I believe that people that commented took it a bit too personal, because I didn't intend to upset anyone, but I have to admit, I can see where other people are coming from.

What I'm asking you as readers to do is read through them, and judge whether they are fair or not. I didn't want any harsh comebacks, especially one where one girls insults Blue. I never brought eitherJedward or Blue into the subject of this post, so I felt a little upset that people mentioned and insulted them. I mean, yeah, we aren't great each year, but sometimes a comment can get to far. But maybe I'm just misunderstand them, I don't believe I am, but I could be. I'm always open for interpretation. or whatever I actually mean by that.

I'm also starting to feel the need that I need new shoes, because my school ones are starting to give me horrid blisters. But I have less than 2 weeks left, so what am I moaning about? I do walk however, three miles home, which does take me an hour or more, and I was more dis-heartened by the fact that I deleted one of my favourite songs off my phone, so I couldn't enjoy that song, but I choose to walk home, and I accept it was my fault that I did delete it, though it was by accident.

I seem to be doing a lot of admitting and stuff in this post. Though, I don't know why. I also want to make note, that although my other posts have been long, that is because Eurovison was on, and I'm back at school now, so not much in excitement shall happen for me, but if it were to happen, and there was some excitement, I will of course make sure I'll blog it, but since that is what I'm doing anyways, I'll just continue on. I also today had the wounderful experience of a weird man shouting at me from his window as I was walking home. So lovely and charming some people are nowadays.

Oh, and don't forget to check out my page from the link, I guess I should have mentioned that earlier, but ah well. Till tomorrow.

So of course, yesterday I watched Eurovision!

I have to say, like every other year, the results were absolutely tensing! I was literally jumping around in my seat.

I'm from the U.K and I felt that we had a great start, but as we went on, we were knocked down, but we did way better than 2010, where we came almost to last place! We beat it like up to 100 more points then last year! Bulgaria, you were our only friend, and I would have loved it if their country would have stayed in with their song 'Na Inat', I thought it was fantastic, and the 12 points were so generous!

If you want to here there song, you can find it here;

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwH2VU7Vqss

I personally found it excellent, and although they may have not made it to the final, or won, I think this song would make a great hit, so check it out!

Now onto Azerbaijan, if you did watch it, then you know that they won, and that Italy andSweden were close by! Now personally, I did not enjoy the song myself, but they gave it there all, and the other countries obviously thought it was fantastic, so next year, we're off to Azerbaijan and I'm hoping next year is even more fantastic!

Now, If you we're watch the U.K giving out our points, then you saw how we gave 12 points to a close country of ours, Ireland, and of course, why wouldn't we? They had Jedward! Their song 'Lipstick' was catchy, and I was shocked to found out that Sweden  had written it aswell! and as the scores were given out and it was coming to Ireland's turn to give us a boost, as we were relying on then, they have us a 6. A 6. Now, of course we felt betrayed, and screwed over pretty much, but it was their choice, and I won't complain about it anymore.

I just hope that Blue and Jedward's career will be more enhanced then before, although, Jedward are already popular in their own sense, and Blue will create more and more songs, so good luck to them both!

If you had read my previous journal entry, you know that I was rooting for Finland, Spain, Estonia,Armenia, Belarus, Bulgaria, The Netherlands, Russia, Romania, Iceland, Ireland andIsrael, to win, and if I didn't mention some of these before, well, it counts now. But what I didn't know, was that most hadn't made it to the final, and I believe I actually should have watched the sem-finals. But I felt insulted when I learned that Moldova had got through, but Bulgaria didn't, and their song and artist were so much better! But that is my opinion, and I mean no offence to any Moldova fans out there.

Eurovision was of course fantastic, and I loved learning the storys behind each song, like how they found Mika Newton while looking for Mika, or the sad story from Iceland, which made me really feel for them! Moldova, you didn't have a great song, you had great hats, and Ukraine, not a great song either, but you reminded me of a rock band! I only wish that Estonia hadn't been last, and that title would have been given to Germany, because I believe they acted a little cockily choosing to use the same entrant, but other countries have done it, so I'm not going to rip you guys apart. While I was watching Eurovision, I was tweeting like CRAZY, I did a total from my 500th tweet mentioning thatEurovision had started, and wrote 74/75 tweets. It's actually better on Twitter, because that way, I can write what I'm thinking, and it should clog up the feed, as other's I'm following are popping up to! It was wonderful to have seen the entusistic and supportive tweets, and talking and learning what others felt and were thinking! Next year, prepare yourself! And don't worry, I shall be doing my review again next year!

I also enjoy the superstition around 2012, that we're all going to die, and I want to any of my readers or glancers, even scanners, that I don't believe in it, and I'm hoping next year no-one does anything stupid or regretable, and to those who believe it will happen, or something close to it, and it does, even in a small sense, I will write a journal entry with a sorry message included in it, but I'm not believing it will happen, so I don't think there will be a chance, but I don't know. Anyways, I mentioned the superstition in the first place because it doesn't matter about it, because Eurovision happens in May or so, and they've predicted the doomed month as December, so it's all good. 

I want to diclose with people, that these are my OWN opinions, and that I believe people can think or believe what they want, so I'm not hating, it may sound like it, but I'm not, I'm just one small little voice writing out what I think.

Don't forget to check out my links either, to see what I wrote for Eurovision on my Twitter. I do follow back, but that only applies if you tweet daily, and you are legit, otherwise, you can follow, but I won't follow back. That is another thing I want to disclose with you.

I also have my sucky first part of my English exam tomorrow, and I am dreading it! I will write how it went in tomorrows journal entry, as well as anything else that happened!

I just hope everyone enjoyed Eurovision! and that I'm counting on all of you to check in next year, and WATCH IT!.

Alana.

02.

So, of course, tonight is Eurovision! If any of you are wondering, the time it starts is 8.00 on BBC1.

As much as I support any other country, I really hope that either Sweden, Armenia, Ireland, Belarus, Finland, Spain orBulgaria win. 

It'd be great if Spain were to win, as my other post mentioned, I always hope each year they'll win!

If you're still interested in checking out the songs before tonight, then check out;

http://www.bbc.co.uk/eurovision/songs/

and have a look through that!

On another note, if you look at my links, you'll notice my Twitter, Dailybooth and Tumblr.

I generally use my Twitter and Tumblr alot, so come follow or check me out! I do however moan alot on Twitter, but I'm not that much of a negative person!

Lately, I've become addicted to watching Modern Family, and I have no idea why. I normally appose family shows, such as the one with Hugh Dennis, which is Outnumbered, I don't wish to sound all abusive against it, but I never understood it, or found it all that funny either. I belive that he should stick to doing Mock The Week.

On an interesting note, I was looking at Israel's entry, and I found at that she is actually a he. I'm not hating, but I find this incredible, they show that anyone can be entered, as long as they can sing! It's incredible, really.

Anyways, here is hoping that you all watch and vote tonight!

Alana.

I thought about creating my first post about me, but I thought I'd just express what I love and hate through different posts.

So, one of my first posts is about something I love, EUROVISION! 

I may be 15 (something about myself there), but I've been watching it for about 5/6 years now, and it's something I always look forward to everytime it comes about, year after year. Some get tired of it, don't like the corny songs that a few countries sing each time they appear on it, but I love it, I love all things cheesy in life, except cheesy love, I can say that it's one of things I can't stand.

Back to the point, it also annoys me when other people, who have barely watched it, or just start watching it, mention it over and over again. In my honest opinion, I don't want to sound like I'm hating on them, because everyone and anyone is entitled to watch it, but it's something that I've always watched, and can name almost every song from 2005 to now, and then new people gain interest, write about how much they love it, when they can barely name any of the artists, let alone songs. I'm probably just getting wound up about it, but I do feel strongly when someone claims to be a fan, but has no way of backing that up.

I did it again, I sidetracked, but that is what I do. What I do each year is I go on the BBC website, which you'll find below;

http://www.bbc.co.uk/eurovision/songs/

and each year, I go through the list, and I review the songs, choose which ones I do and do not like, and write them down, which is actually what I'm going to do in this post. I just want to mention that each of these little reviews is just 50/50, meaning I like it a little, YES, meaning I like it alot, and NO, meaning I don't (which is obvious), and each of these I have reviewed are in my own opinion, which means anyone is entitled to disagree with me, by all words, I suggest it, but I don't mean any harm or hate on any of the countries entrys I don't like, because each year, I like one countries entry, then I don't. It's just a long list with YES and NO's, like a 'Do you like...' question.

Anyways, my review is below;

Albenia - "Feel The Passion" - 50/50.

Armenia - "Boom-Boom" - YES.

Austria - "The Secret Is Love" - NO.

Ukraine - "Angels" - NO.

United Kingdom - "I can" - 50/50.

So, there you have it, my review for Eurovision 2011, 14th May. (Which by, when I'm writing this is tommorow, Saturday).

Some of you will think, "Oh look, I'll agree on that" and some of you would think "What? NO! Why don't you like that one" and I can't really say any more thoughts because I'm not really a mind-reader.

If you're wondering which country I'm from, I'm from the U.K, with Blue, the one's with "I Can". I honestly don't like it that much, but it's good in a way, if any of you know what I mean. When I was like, 9/10/11, Blue were the Bomb, Duncan James, YES PLEASE. My little Sister Loved Lee Ryan, but that's because he has the sweetest and hightest voice. Then you have Antony and Simon, both valid members aswell, they did however deserve more singing time, but again, that is just my opinion. 

Another opinion of mine, understand that I can't vote for my own Country, is that I wouldn't, even if I were in another country, like Turkey for instance. The reason why is every year, although I do love the cheesy songs, like with Josh Dubovie (Andrew Lloyd-Webber did good with that one, though we did come last), we don't have great artists, the year before Josh was Jade Ewen, with "My Time" in 2009, which I personally didn't like AT ALL (though we came 6th, but I have my own idea why that was), then before that we had Andy Abraham with "Even If" in 2008 (I didn't like that either, and we came mostly last again), then in 2007 we had (why that name, I don't know) Scooch with "Flying The Flag (For You)", and again, we didn't do to well either. 

What I believe the problem to be, is the fact that unlike other countries, we only sing in English. Understood because we are English/British or whatever, but I feel like we should sing in another language then our own. I don't know whether we have, but I'm betting, if we did, it was a LONG time ago. Other countries like Ukraine in 2007, who sang with "Shady Lady", which was of course, a different language. I believe myself, it's alright if you disagree, but if we sang in a different language, showing that we can do what another country does, and sings in a different language to their own, maybe we'd win, or get higher up the board.

Of course, my sole and lonely opinion won't be heard, but it'd be nice if we were to sing in Spanish, or Russian or something. We are obviously not all English in the U.K, and if we could get the artist, that'd be Fantastic. But my thoughts are all my own.

I want to point out this year, I do have certain favourites that I REEEEEALLY hope to win this year.Germany won last year, and I didn't like it to much, but good for them,  so, my favourites areSweden, Ireland, Spain (I honestly want these guys to win, like, each year! I mean, last year when they had Daniel Diges with "Algo Pequenito" should have won! but I again, congratulate Germany). Some more of my favourites are Armenia and Belarus (I feel their song choice is a little conceited in thought, but that is just me, and it makes for a GREAT song) and then I'm also rooting for Bulgaria.

I should point out, that some songs do sound similiar to others I have heard off Eurovision, and thatEstonia with "Rockerfeller Street" does in my opinion sound like something Billy Joel would have wrote, but it again, still makes for a good song.

I have probably babbled on enough about Eurovision this year, and I hope my opinions didn't offend or upset anyone, and I kind of hope that some of you agree with me. Just sayin'. I'm absolutly excited about it, and Jedward are going to make for great entertainment, and their song choice is fantastic! 

So, after tomorrow till next year, this is my review for Eurovision, and I hope next year England/Britain or the United Kingdom finally make a song in another language, but here's hoping.

Alana.
