Everyday I climb into the front seat in my mom or dad's cars. I buckle my seat belt and we drive away. I lean forward to turn on the radio. I press setting five to turn on the local pop station I always listen to. In the last couple months, more often then not, what I hear makes me want to (and sometimes causes my mom to) turn the radio off.
I'm talking about political adds.
I turn the radio on and I hear Mitt Romney saying that he supports A and has voted for it and that Obama hates A and has voted for B. Justin Bieber, Nicki Minaj, and Taylor Swift have the floor for the next few minutes. Then it goes to Obama. He apparently thinks B is stupid and unlike Romney has voted against that and for A. If I was an uninformed voter, I'd be confused.
I'd like to start with the fact that it's a teen radio station. Can we vote? No. Do we have that much, if any, say in what our parents vote? No. Are our parents listening while they drive us instead of tuning all this idiotic music out? Most likely no. So why advertise to a tween radio? I'd leave this advertising to NPR.
Another thing that bugs me is the fact that one, or both, of them have got to be blatantly lying. As I said before, they are saying the exact opposite of each other. The same is true for the debates. This time it's within seconds of each other that you hear the presidential candidates, people you want be able to trust, telling you tons of stuff that can't possibly be true. If I was old enough to vote and undecided, I'd scoot on over to my computer and figure out, from unbiased sources, what's what.
The thing that annoys me the most is something most people don't think of.
We have people out there who's careers lead them to do incredible things and yet these people, with a so-called interest in politics, have decided to devote their time to creating things to trash talk people. Some of these people are in fact, corrupt. But do we ever think about the small chance that maybe, just maybe, there might actually be some morally good people whose children have to listen to the radio, watch TV, or even play on the computer, and here awful people saying terrible things about their mommy or daddy? No, we don't.

Cirque Du Soleil
I saw Cirque Du Soleil yesterday. Almost the whole time my face was like this,
or this,
or this.
First lets talk costumes. Almost all the people doing crazy acrobats were in body suits, which were cool. But what amazed me the most were the chorus peoples costumes and makeup. They looked like people out of the capitol.
I love one girl's costume in particular. She was dressed all in pink and yellow-orange. Her hair was in yellow-orange curls piled on top of her head, around one foot high. Her dress was like a hoop skirt, it poofed out a lot, but it only went to just below her butt. I'm pretty sure it was made with wire.
Now about the actual show. My favorite parts were the ones where people swung around the stage hanging on ropes or other contraptions. There's not much to say, the whole thing was just like WOW.
WOW

Rubix Cube!!! (Yes I Know It's "Rubik's" Cube, But Rubix Cube Looks and Sounds Better, Plus The X is Crossed, So It's Like a Rubix Cube, So I'm Gonna Call it a Rubix Cube!)
I can solve a rubix cube! I watched a video on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsQIoPyfQzM, it's SUPER helpful- if you wanna learn, you should watch it!) and solved my rubix cube for the first time ever by doing it along with the video! I did it a couple more times and soon I could remember one or two of the algorithms! That was yesterday, and by this morning I only need to check the video for one algorithms, by right now I can do this-
5 MINUTES 11.93 SECONDS LATER...
BOOYAH!!!!!!

DSW+Old Navy
A couple weeks ago I went to this strip mall-ish place on a hunt for nice flats and sweaters. The result was this-
DSW-One Pair of Flats
OLD NAVY-Two Sweaters

All in all, I think it was a success.
Ok, so I'm trying to post a lot now to make up for those 2 months, but I don't know what to post. I know I have a post from a while ago that asks what you guys want me to post so I can check that but if there's anything else you want, just tell me in comments. I know I'll have some Halloween posts coming up and maybe a review of Taylor Swift's new album(5 DAYS, 11 HOURS, 32 MINUTES, AND 46 SECONDS!)? Anyway, just tell me what you want and I'll try to do it!

Two Months, One Post, What Could Go Wrong?
Hehe, hehe, it's not like I haven't blogged in 60 days, hehe...
Yeah, sorry about that guys...I'm here now!
And I'm about to give two months worth of happenings in one post! I'm warning you all that this post is gonna be in no particular order, just what comes to my head! So, let's go...
Red comes out in 6 days, 9 hours, 40 minutes, and 21 seconds, 20 seconds, 19 seconds... Maybe I should stop? Anyways, it comes out soon! And guess who's getting it?! That's right-the girl who hung up her towel 20 times!!! (Sticker-Charts-Aren't-Just-For-Six-Year-Olds!) Ok so WANEGBT definitely grew on me-I love it, but the whole I'm-gonna-release-a-single-every-week-until-the-album-comes-out is really annoying, like are they even singles? Still, I know every word to Begin Again, almost every word to Red, and the couple times I've heard I Knew You Were Trouble, I've liked it.
I'm in middle school now and I love it! Some major trends at my middle school...
GIRLS
BOYS
I LOVE Everybody Talks, Some Nights, and Want U Back.
Sorry Liam-ers but Louis's my new favorite. DID YOU SEE HIM AT THE VMA'S?!

E's Quotes... Taylor... 60s Outfit
"If I was in an 80s band, I'd wanna forget that period of my life." E on Madness in the Olympic Closing Ceremonies.
My first thought was disgust. It's such a pop song and her album cover looks like this should be a more country album. Or at least heading in that direction. Instead this song sounds like a..."catchy pop song I like by some Swedish artist I've never heard of." I mean I still really like it(I've been listening to it on repeat all afternoon!) but she's been doing such grownup music with Both of Us, and this just doesn't seem Taylor-y. I'm still so excited and have lots of hope for her new album!
Today I'm wearing a kind of sixties-inspired outfit that I really like, so I thought I'd show you it.
"It sounds like it should be a catchy pop song I like by some Swedish artist I've never heard of." E on...
We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together is Taylor Swifts new single off her album Red which comes out on October 22!!!!!
