Five: Songs I Couldn't Help But Like 2012

There is a reason kids to not fall behind in school. Oh really just sweep yourself into every other responsibility in life except for school. So I've been spending this past week catching up with almost eight chapters of readings that I either didn't finish reading or didn't read at all for my first cumulative exam. As an English Grad, there has never really been a cumulative exam. Oy with the poodles already.

Anywho I'm taking time out of catching with Chapter X to post a Five Post I haven't done in awhile

SONGS THAT I COULDNT HELP BUT LIKE IN 2012

1. Pitbull ft. Neyo - Tonight
I dont think this came out in 2012 but I have been hearing it a lot in the past couple of months.

2. Bruno Mars - Locked Out of Heaven

Congratulations Bruno Mars, you win. I have found a running theme of me initially hating his song and then eventually liking it, with the exception of The Lazy Song. I started really liking this song probably after seeing his performance on SNL and seeing how lively his stage ended up being. 

3. One Direction - What Makes You Beautiful
My old coworker Robyn and I always said that when we first heard this song, we thought "Awwww!" But we are in no way One Directioners esp since I don't even know their names. I just go by hairstyle, esp with my students, "Which one has the messy swoopy haircut?" and then all I hear is squeals and a babel of names. Still don't know the name of the kid with the swoopy haircut.

4. Carly Ray Jepsen - Call Me Maybe
The first 50 times it played, I loved it. The last 1234987934857309845 times, not so much. But it was just that dorky cute I couldn't help but like it.
The video that introduced me to this song

5. Taylor Swift - I Knew You Were Trouble
After hearing "We Are Never Ever Ever Getting Back Together" oh, 1394873495872348 times hearing this one was kinda refreshing with the beat. Especially with the beat, I had to really think about the fact that the person singing was in fact Taylor Swift.

138: At least after today

- I can focus on my last two finals
- I can catch up on sleep
- get reacquainted with my bed
- not feel like a vampire when the early lights of morn glare in my eyes and make me hiss.
- focus on the final I want to put my everything into.
- I have 8 days

136: Sleep and Cafe Venti

Went with Felix to go study at Cafe Venti but the KPop playing in the background was not good for both of our productivity's. While I struggled to find hints of construction of masculinity through the American West in library books, Felix struggled to keep emotions and his jaw closed as scantily dressed Korean Pop Idols graced the wide screen televisions on the wall. He would consistently state which ones were his favorites and oggled at the dance moves mixed with the camera angles that catered to his delight. This happened...every five minutes as another girl group replaced the stage with their own butt pats and body pops. The only time it was quiet between the both of us is when the Korean Boy Group's started to sing. Before we knew it, it was 1050PM and Felix had only written a paragraph and I got through two books but did not find any information that could have been of assistance all the while struggling not to laugh at Felix's delight. We needed to leave Cafe Venti.

Despite trying to appease the caffeine crash that was slowly beginning to affect my body with more caffeine, I needed a nap. Luckily, my boyfriend was at the 24/7 at SDSU and held us a table, in return we provided him a cup of hot milk tea and a cup of hot water for his noodles. Since being here, Felix managed to produce two more pages of his assignment quicker than the entire time we were at Cafe Venti and the vivacity I needed energy wise returned to me after a quick 30min power nap that Jon allowed me to have between studying. I was falling asleep on my books anyway. I know I haven't had a lot of sleep between the last 36hrs and I wonder what will happen when all  of this is over this is fucking hell week.
