I'm not getting anywhere here...

I've spent all night thinking of ways to make some extra cash (seeing as I currently don't have a job and I need money for a whole list of things). Currently I haven't got any good prospects.
Here's the list I've come up with so far...


  • buy myself bongos and play them on the streets (but I don't have money to buy bongos so that's out)
  • become a cleaning lady for people (am I really that great at cleaning?)
  • organize people's closets (what if there were spiders...)
  • become someone's personal shopper
  • start selling off my belongings (anything besides books)
  • write a short story (now I just need a good idea)
  • blog more often (maybe people would actually start reading it and stuff)
  • start selling my cookies/start a little bakery (I am a pretty good chocolate chip cookie maker, but who the heck would I sell them too?)
  • make and sell items on etsy (I'm not that crafty)
  • sell my art..... hahahahhaha
  • start making YouTube videos (I can only imagine the nothing I would talk about)
  • do people's hair and makeup (I mean I used to do it all the time to my cousin as a child...that's gotta count for something)
  • lemonade stand?
  • can someone just pay me to travel and review things and write about my ideas? anyone?

So, I've heard a lot of people say "oh the lineup for Warped this year sucks." Well if you think it's not up to par, maybe I have a bad taste in music because I like about every band on the list. So much so, that I decided to make a playlist based off of it.

Glee and Whitney

Last night I finally found the time to watch Tuesday's episode of Glee and I was actually really happy about it. With songs from such a powerful voice as Whitney Houston's I was kind of concerned they couldn't pull it off.


I mean right from the start when they sang How Will I Know, my eyes got watery... and don't even get me started on Kurt's performance of I Have Nothing. The line up of songs they chose was really great. My least favorite song was actually I Want To Dance With Somebody, I was just not feeling their version of the song, although it's definitely one of my favorite Whitney songs.


The only problem I have with Glee still after three seasons is their lack of a good story line at time. They try to tie a bunch of songs together and that often makes the story lines unbelievable or practically non existant.


Oh Darren....your face body voice.

Also this song will always remind me of dance class, because I had one teacher who always used it as one of our warm up songs.

Movies

I feel like I'm missing a few since I last checked but....

Number 11: The Decendants, watched April 20, 4 out of 5 stars. I liked it but it was a bit depressing

Number 12: Like Crazy, watched April 21, 4 out of 5. I liked the story, it was a bit slow though.
