Everything at Once

So there I was; sprawled on my living room couch preparing myself to watch Cars 2 with my family when BAM!! I heard this awesome song on a Disney ad! I tracked it down with Lyrster, and well, you know the rest. Enjoy!

A Christmas Carol... for the nerdy.

This one is for all you starwars geeks out there.
Merry Christmas! :)




May the Force be With you,

I can't believe it. Harry Potter 7, part two, is here!!!!! It feels so weird to have the last movie coming out, already! Isn't it exciting?! I even get to go to the midnight showing tomorrow!! WHOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyone dressing up? Anyone spending the day with lawn chairs and tents outside the theater ready to get the best seats possible? I'M NOT!! Why? Nobody will go with me!! They all think it's to weird to do that. And I had my Voldemort costume all ready too!!(bald cap and all) ;)
To kick off the grand finale of the harry potter movie franchise, here are some pics of the upcoming movie! Enjoy!

Garage Murals?

Hello blog world! Sorry for disappearing for a while. I got back from the trek a few weeks ago, then kept forgetting to go back to my sad little blog... But I have returned!! =D
Lately I've been obsessed with looking up ideas for my "future home", and I came upon this interesting website where you can get a mural/sticker thing to put on your garage. Its washable, fully weatherproof, non-fading, and attatches with this extra strength velcro tape stuff(so you can take it on and off easily, and you don't have to worry about leaving sticky residue if your renting or something).
The sad thing is its a German company, which means most of the designs are for single door garages (because that's what most homes have in Europe). But they DO ship world-wide, including the United States.
Here are some examples of what they offer. =]


I just hope people are smart enough to realize that this IS NOT a real highway, and they don't crash into your garage door...


If only this was REAL!! I don't know about you, but I'm willing to park my car outside in exchange for a full-fledged beach inside my garage. The only thing better than this would be a portal to Narnia!


This would be a fun thing for Halloween, but I don't see myself using this anytime unless I felt like scaring the crap out of some poor little kid riding their bike around the neighborhood, or True. I bet it would freak her out... hehe!


I wonder if something like this would bug someone with OCD? Maybe some of the... especially aged, in the neighborhood wouldn't get the whole sticker thing and come over to let you know how sorry they feel that your garage has been destroyed?


Here is one of the few two-car-garage murals. I wonder how you could get a giant truck like that into an actual two car garage... Hmmm...


I wouldn't pick this paticular sticker thing to put on my own garage, but it might be interesting to see people walk up and stare at it. :p

If you go on the website and don't happen to like any of the designs, they also offer custom mural sticker things where you send them your own picture and they modify it to fit.
Although they cost about $140, I would totally save up and get one of these things to put on my garage!

The Feel Again (Stay)

This song by Blue October is AMAZING! This band is always coming out with new music, and I can NEVER pick my favorite out of their many tracks. I'm always looking forward to their next album. This is their latest song, and I just can't stop playing it! I bet my family is sick of it by now... heh heh. (With my Mom as an exception. She loves this band 10x as much, and introduced ME to them!)
Let me know what you think!



Rock On,
The Unintentional Nerd

Ninja?

I typed ninjas in thesaurus.com and The computer told me "Ninjas cannot be found". Well played, ninjas. Well played.

In Need of a Makeover?

Okay, the last time my room got a supposed "makeover" was err...two years ago? I was way into the whole Blue&Brown color thing, but now after staring at the same bed spread everyday, for two years, I think It's time for something' new. I love to change my room around OFTEN, so you can see how something this small would bug me. Here is my current bed spread....

Well, I'll admit. The colors are really cute, and I DO love polka dots, but I'm BORED of it. And Sage loooves it 10x as much as I do! So no need to fret. It won't go to waste! (sorry the picture is really lame. It's the only good one I could find on Google images...)

Here a picture of a bed spread that is pretty similar. It just has much more...vibrant, colors compared to those on my actual bed spread. Heh heh.

New Beginnings

Thanks to everyone who has helped me come up with a new name for my blog! I have finally decided on one name... The Unintentional Nerd. Why nerd? One, I like nerds, in general. Two, I love nerdy looking things. And three, I fit the definition PERFECTLY! Just look at what the dictionary says...

nerd: \'nerd\ n
1: a person who is socially awkward,
2: a person who is extremely devoted to study and learning
3: an intelligent but single-minded person obsessed with a nonsocial hobby or pursuit
4: a stupid, irritating, ineffectual, or unattractive person

Okay, okay...so I'm not really the SMART kind of nerd the dictionary describes in two of these definitions, but the others fit just fine! Anyways, what I'm trying to say is that I am still in some ways a "nerd". Heh heh...
Oh! I almost forgot. Here is some nerd-like pics that I found on Google images, just for kicks. 8) Enjoy!



I pick Captain Kirk...or Captain Underpants!


Awwww! Nerdy guy! :p


Ooo! An even BETTER nerdy guy! ;D


Awwww!! I want a guy to give me this to figure out someday! That'd be so CUTE!



Agreed, Barbie. :p


Well, thats about all the GOOD pictures that I found online. Hope you like 'em! :]

New Favorite!

Behold, I have a new favorite song! In case you don't know me that well, you might as well know that I change favorite songs every other week...or at least it seems that way. This song is called Tonight Tonight by Hot Chelle Rae. Hope you like it! :)

Hymn Medley

I discovered this beautiful song, by Ricky Valadez, today on YouTube that mixes my two favorite hymns of all time! "If You Could Hie to Kolob" and "Adam-ondi-Ahman". It's no MOTAB, but it's awesome in its own unique way. This actually might even be my new favorite version of these songs! :]
Let me know what you think!

How Patient Are You?

Behold...the song that drives most crazy, yet actually helps me think. The Jeapordy Theme Song! But you know what makes this version so wonderful? It's three hours long. Mhhhmm. Thats right. Three hours of absolute torture...at least when it comes to my parents.
I only got through half an hour of it when my dad forced me to turn it off...Muahaha!!
How long can you stand it??

6 Things...Dogs!

Okay, so "6 Things" has returned!! I've decided to show you my favorite 6 pics of funny lookin' dogs/puppies from the internet.
Note: Some are just plain weird...just a warning.
Enjoy! :p

#1.
Awwwww! Buddies!!!


#2.
I'd be soo angry If Jack did this!! Unless he looked as good wearing lip-gloss as this dog does! Haha!


#3.
One Word...Creeper.


#4.
Uhmm...this better not be NATURAL...


#5.
I've always wanted a weiner dog! They're so cute. Hehe!


#6.
This one makes me laugh so hard, it's hard to breathe!!!


Bonus:
So...That would normally be all, but I'm going to throw this one in for Erin! :p

Cya! :]

An Easter Treat...

Here is an...interesting, yet hillarious, video from actor Kirby Heyborne. My mom showed this video to me this morning via kerblink.com . Let me know what you think! HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE! :)

Help Wanted!!

Okay, I'm in desperate need of a decent blogger name or username for myself! "My So Called Life" was a good name...until I discovered about a billion other blogs with the same name. (And Its also a TV show!! Who would've thought...)
Well, I'd just like to ask for some help in finding a new name. Preferably something that isn't taken already. Every name I've come up with has been taken, which makes me pretty darn frustrated, and I'm not a very creative person when it comes to stuff like this. HELP!!!!!! D:
P.S. If you DO have any ideas post a comment please! :)

6 Things...

So I've decided to take a break from posting videos to try something new. 6 Things! It's where I post my favorite 6 things! Kinda self explanatory, no? :) I chose 6 mostly cause its my lucky number, and cause its a nice, small number as well. I'll kick things off today with my 6 favorite Mod Cloth dresses! I chose Mod Cloth cause, well, that wonderful website it the sole reason why I fell in love with vintage(and vintage inspired) things! Mainly clothing. Anyway, here is my list of top 6 dresses off of modcloth.com! Enjoy!

#1. Look on the Sunny Side Dress:
I'm not sure how this would look on me, but I love the little black bow-tie! I wish It wasn't out of stock... :/

#2. Nice and Charming Tunic:
Black, white, stripes, and baggy. One of my favorite combinations!

#3. Team Mod Mini Dress:
Blue!!! I looove this color! I could never own to many blue things! :D

#4. Comfort Couture Dress:
I'd have to add something to cover up my shoulders, but this dress is AMAZING!

#5. Love Songs Dress:
Again. Blue!! And the cap sleeves are beyond cute.

#6. Quiet Campus Stroll Dress:
I love this bright yellow color, and the fact that this dress is also long and flow-y makes it even better! (I could totally see myself wearing this...but who knows.) :p


So that concludes my first 6 Things update, I hope you liked it! Remember, Comments are welcome!

Pray for You...

I'd just like to thank my buddy Sarah for showing me this awesome video. It's probably the only Country song either of us will ever listen to cause if we listened to any others our ears would surely bleed...Then we'd burst into flames and die.
Just kidding. Heh heh...Enjoy!

Ninjormon?? Oh yeah!

Okay...this may seem weird @ first, but I personally love it. I almost fell off of my chair from laughing when I saw this on YouTube! Some things you will NOT understand unless you ARE, as a matter of fact, a Mormon. But its soo hilarious!!! So excuse the beginning, it gets better as it goes on. Hahahaha!
I love this...Enjoy! :D

"The Freshman" by: The Verve Pipe

I heard this song a while ago on the radio, and I instantly loved it! I wrote down as many as lyrics as possible then looked them up in "Lyrster"; this amazing website where you type down the lyrics you remember, then it shows you songs with those lyrics. I love this song, and that website to!

Panic! At The Disco: The Ballad Of Mona Lisa [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

I was listening to the radio the other day and discovered this song, and now it's my new favorite song!! I hope this comes on more often cause I LOVE it, and the rest of my family does too! Haha! The video is a tad bit weird, but which videos aren't now-a-days? :p Enjoy!

A Little More Than Halfway...

Well...this school year has gone by VERY quickly. That's a good thing! The first semester has ended, and we are a few weeks into the second semester. Yesss!! Countdown to Summer starts NOW!!

Summer...♫HERE! I! COME!♫

Heart of Life Lyrics

I heard this song in a movie yesterday and loved it!! Has anyone else watched "Ghost Town"? Its great, but just a warning...the people tend to swear. A lot! Just thought I'd throw that out there. :p
