West vs. Swift
The controversy between rapper/singer Kanye West and singer/songwriter Taylor Swift has been going on for over a year now. When Kanye West jumped up on stage during Taylor Swift's thank-you speech at the VMA's last year, he grabbed the mic and told the crowd that Beyonce deserved the award. West has since apologized a number of times over the past year, including recently via Twitter. In Swift's SNL episode last November, her "Monologue Song" consisted of the lyrics, "And if you're thinking I might say/Something bad about Kanye/And how he ran up on the stage/And ruined my VMA monologue/Well there's nothing more to say/Cause everything's okay/I've got security lining the stage." And went to commercial with, "Everyone stick around, we have a great show planned! Kanye West is NOT here!" Now in this situation, the situation was sill an "open wound." And it was funny. But this year at the VMA's, Swift sang a song from her new CD, called "Innocent." The song was written about her incident with Kanye West. I think that this was immature and sure, it's great that she is writing about her past experiences, but singing that song at the VMA's...? That's a little harsh to West, who IS very apologetic. I think people are done with this incident, I know I am.

Ten Stupidest Songs of Fall 2010
Here I am again, writing my infamous list of stupid songs. Why? Because it's fun, and because these songs are the epitome of awful. Enjoy(:
1) Teenage Dream by Katy Perry
NO ONE has EVER lived the teenage dream. That's part of being a TEENAGER.
2) Take It Off by Ke$ha
Ugh! Ke$ha!!! Why do I always find you on this list? "There's a place downtown where the freaks all come around, it's a hole in the wall, it's a dirty free for all." Are you talking about your concerts, Ke$ha??
3) 143 by Ray J feat. Bobby Brackins
"143, I lalalalove you." GENIUS lyrics. "See me at the club, say I love you." This would be an accepted song in this society, but I can't listen to it without feeling weird inside because Bobby sounds like he is fourteen! I will give him kuddo's though, I have never seen a fourteen year old with dreads and grills.
4) Misery by Maroon 5
I loved this song until I saw the video. Come on, Adam. Your girlfriend is a frrrreak. "I am in misery, there 'aint nobody who can comfort me." I would be, too, if I had to film a music video with that lady.
5) Your Love by Nicki Minaj
"Shawty, I'm only tell you this once, you the illest." When the word "sick" came back to mean cool or awesome, I accepted it and might have even used it a couple of times. But "illest?" That's too much.
6) La la la by Auburn feat. Iyaz
This beat is the illest! Hahah, just kidding. It's pretty cool, but "la" can only be used so much in three minutes.
7) Who Owns My Heart by Miley Cyrus
"Who owns my heart? Is it love or is it art? 'Cause the way you got your body movin', it's got me confused, and I can't tell if it's the beat or sparks." It's probably the CRACK. "And I feel you comin' through my veins, am I into you, or is the music too plain?" Please don't sing songs about your drunk nights at nightclubs that you're TOO YOUNG TO GET INTO. Hahaha.
And do you know what a mafia is? Just wondering.
8) I Like It by Enrique Iglesias feat. Pitbull
Pitbull, I don't ever understand anything you say!!!! If my grandma ever met you, she'd hit you with her purse and tell you to "enunciate."
9) Bottoms Up by Trey Songz feat. Nicki Minaj
"It's Mr. Steal Your Girl." Enough said.
10) Bulletproof by La Roux
La Roux, I can't see your eyebrows. Which scares me. And this song sounds like it was made on garage band.
Congratulations to Ke$ha!! You were only on the list ONCE! You are improving(:

The Good 'Ole Days (My three favorite pictures)
Six Reasons Why I Hate Being Fifteen (and the Oldest)
1) I have to do the dishes. The only thing I hate more than loading the dishwasher? Unloading the dishwasher.
2) I can drive, but only with an adult.
3) I was folding laundry when I was six, but my nine year old brother can't even put his shoes away.
4) I'm halfway done with high school, which means although I have done a lot, I have a lot more to do.
5) I can't eat chocolate like I used to when I was ten.
6) I get blamed for everything.

Five People I Love (That I Would Never Admit...Until Now)
I decided that I should finally come out and say that I've been lying. I have denied liking the following five people.
1) Miley Cyrus
Miley has been getting quite a bit of crap (frankly) for the way she has been presenting herself lately. It started with a leak of pictures on the internet of her and another girl. Then posing half-naked for Vanity Fair, and recently for her revealing outfits. Now... Miley became a star in her early early teens. Around age 12, actually. But now she is 17, and she's growing up. If I was put in her shoes, then I would feel the same exact way. I mean come on, people! She's not fourteen anymore, she's almost an adult!!! She keeps telling the press "I'm not trying to be slutty" and "I'm comfortable in my body" and it's pretty much her decision how she presents herself. She has her own style and personality that is most likely completely different from Hannah Montana's...! So, I cannot judge Miley because if I was her, I wouldn't want to be judged.
2) Taylor Momsen
Most know Taylor as the little sister on "Gossip Girl", but her other roles include the President's daughter in Spy Kids 2, and Cindy Lou in the Grinch. Her statements lately have been procalmations such as "I could eat a boy my age alive", meaning that she acts much older than she really is. Which is sixteen, by the way. Everything about Taylor strikes me as mysterious, and I think she's doing a wonderful job of keeping herself busy in the entertainment industry. Kudos, kid!
3) Lady GaGa
Dear Lady GaGa, although your songs are overplayed like crazy, and your outfits scare me, I can honestly say, "There is no one like you." Your style is like nothing I have ever seen before and your music can't be copied. I really appreciate the fact that you actually write your own music and you play some of the piano and synthesizer on your CD's. Most artists do not. You're one of a kind, and you're obviously doing something right!
4) Kevin Jonas
When the JoBro's first became worldwide sensations, KJo was the lesser attractive of the group, and I can't remember a girl who had a poster of him on their wall. Nick and Joe's names were everywhere and Kevin was sure to follow, but he never really made a name for himself (well, not quite like his adorable brothers.) BUT! Two things I admire about Kevin: His passion for cleaning up the enviroment, and his skill on the guitar. If you've seen a fair amount of interviews of the Jonas Brothers, you've probably seen Joe and Nick talk about how Kevin is the musical mastermind behind the lyrics. And if you've seen his play guitar... You'll see what they mean.
5) Barack Obama
I'm gonna keep this one short. Has the U.S. ever been truly happy with their President? I don't think so. Ya know why? Because he is a HUMAN BEING. It is proven that human's make mistakes, and guess what? I bet it might be a little hard to have the responsibility of the whole country sitting on your shoulders at times, especially with two little girls and a wife. I beleive Obama is working to the best of his ability.

New (School) Year's Resolution
For some reason, I never seem to do good when making a New Year's Resolution. I always fail within two weeks, actually. But a better idea seems to be making a New Year's Resolution for a new school year! New people, new classes, new teachers, new friends, new goals. So, this year...my New (School) Year's Resolution is....(DRUMROLL PLEASE!)...To 1) never miss a homework assignment, 2) get an A or high B in every class, and 3) play a sport ever season. Basketball starts in October, so right now I am starting softball and (hopefully) I'm going to be able to run cross country. Let's see if I can follow through!:)

This Just In
I would like to announce that I am completely and totally over Justin Bieber. I think he's ugly and his hair is pathetic.
Thank-you. That is all.
Thank-you. That is all.

The End of Summer
This summer, I learned so much. I learned to be independent and to be honest with myself. With my two closest friends gone for a long time, I had to be strong by myself and think about the things that make me happy. Well, the summer's almost over now, and school is starting up in 2 1/2 weeks... So here's to a great summer, my second to last summer as a child.

Desert Dawgs
Daniel's club baseball team, the Desert Dawgs, played in a tournament this weekend in Flagstaff. On Saturday and Sunday, they run ruled every team in the first or second inning... They did amazing! Daniel's catching was awesome. On Monday (today), they didn't do so well. They were burnt out, tired, and ready to go home. Sometimes watching these games really stress me out, and I literally sit on the edge of my seat. They lost the championship game to a 10U team (they are 9U), but they got second place in the whole tournament!! I'm so proud of Daniel.:) Our Dawgs weekend was awesome. The big sisters and little brothers ordered pizza while the parents were out and made the jacuzzi our hang out. I love baseball!
Hannah, Jagger, Me, Caedon, Hunter, and Caymon. :)

Great Song Alert!!
Love The Way You Lie by Eminem ft. Rihanna (Clean Version). This song literally makes me crazy, and there's only a few songs like that. I'm not a fan of Rihanna OR Eminem, but Rihanna's voice in this song is beautiful and the lyrics are interesting. Love this song!

Chelsea Morgan Zablo
Dear Chelsea Morgan Zablo,
There are so many things I love about you! First, I love all our late nights. We start out with the chicken dip, move onto ice cream, then end up drinking Dr. Pepper out of popcorn cups. I love the way you clean my room... Your vacuuming skills are hard to come by! I love how I can call you crying, laughing, angry, or chill and you seem to know just the right thing to say. I love how I can tell you literally anything, and you can tell me anything. I love how my mom knows most of our secrets and we always catch her up on the latest gossip:)... I miss our cookie runs after guitar lessons. I miss listening to Hey You There in the car with you and my mama! And I'm gonna miss you like CRAZY while you leave me for a month to go to Pittsburgh and New York!:( I wanna thank you for being there with me through every second of the most horrible time of my life. I wanna thank you for being there for me when I was betrayed, lied to, and hurt beyond belief. I love our she-man male-hater club and I love YOU!
Love Always,
Bethanie Ann Johnson

This is the reason...
The reason I haven't blogged in a couple of days is because I have been at basketball camp! I go every day from nine o'clock in the morning until five o'clock at night. They is definitely a positive and a negative side to giving up a week of my summer. The positives? I'm getting a lot better at basketball, and my ball handling has improved a lot! (And that Rocky Point kid...) The negatives? It hurts to laugh. And I can barely walk down the stairs. AND I missed out on the movies with my friends! But I guess it is worth it! ...Also, I get to work out with college basketball players such as David Thomas, Steven Garnett, and Adrien Hayes. (Sorry Chris, Megan, and other guy! I forgot your last name.) They are amazing ballers and it's awesome to watch them school us kids. (And occasionally GET schooled.) ;) Thank you, Advantage!

My honest, for real future husband
No one believes me when I tell them that one day I'm going to marry Justin Bieber. No... I have never met him, and no, he has no clue who I am... But one day he will! So for now.. He is my boyfriend.:)

Stupidest Songs of Summer '10 (so far...)
Top Ten Stupidest songs of 2010:
1) Dirty Picture by Taio Cruz feat. Ke$ha"Whenever you are gone, I just wanna be with ya. Please don't get me wrong, I just wanna see a picture." Have fun in jail, Taio Cruz.
2) Rude Boy by Rihanna
Come on rude boy boy boy! Whenever this song comes on on the radio, I turn the station immediately. This song is annoying and just hearing the lyrics makes me feel dirty. If this song wasn't overplayed by every radio station in the world, it would still be an awful song.
3) Kiss and Tell by Justin Bieber
"Just keep it quiet, keep it on the hush and what we do keep it just between us, I don't want to see a tweet about JB, cause the only people that should know is you and me" and "Don't tell your homies, don't tell you mama, don't tell your girlfriend, that'll start some drama, stay off that facebook, I'll treat you real good, you keep this private, and you can get what I get"... Ha ha. How is this even a song?
4) My First Kiss by 3oh!3 feat. Ke$ha
You know you're running out of ideas when you have lyrics that say, "My first kiss went a little like this: muah."
5) Can't Be Tamed by Miley Cyrus
Miley's "coming of age" song has a really awesome beat and semi-okay lyrics. But your idea about this song is completely shattered when you see the music video. Miley rubbing up on boys and girls is definitely not something I want to see. Something else I don't want to see? That would be Miley pole dancing with wings.
6) California Gurls by Katy Perry feat. Snoop Dogg
I think I would be okay with this song if it was "Arizona Girls", or if "Gurls" was spelled correctly. But neither of those things are happening anytime soon, unfortunately. How old are you Snoop Dogg? Like 60? Don't you think it's time for you to stop "rapping" (if you can call it that) about squeezing buns???
7) Your Love Is My Drug by Ke$ha
I recently heard someone say, "Umm, Ke$ha, "love" isn't the only drug your on..." I laughed.:) But it's true... Now I have a question: Why is there a dollar sign in the middle of you name? And since when does '$' sound like 's'? How about you use that dollar sign to buy some new clothes. And this isn't a "song". Usually "song" implies singing.
8) Bed Rock by Young Money
Everyone is always singing this song. When it comes on in the basketball van (which it usually does), everyone sings along. If you can't sing a song to your grandma, you probably shouldn't be singing it. And if you can sing this song to your grandma, I'm worried.
9) Cooler Than Me by Mike Posner
The problem I have with this song, is that is gets stuck in my head, and then I sound stupid singing, "I used up all of my tricks, I hope that you like this. But you probably won't, you think you cooler than me." The beat and his voice are really great together. But the lyrics!! Ugh!
10) Rock That Body by Black Eyed Peas
Black Eyed Peas, I think you are running out of ideas. Or people? Cause Fergie's computerized voice gives me a headache! How can you rock your body when you have a headache?
This is my list of awful songs. Congratulations to Ke$ha for being on here multiple times!
