one more to go until steve stops being a mean blog mama.
bk4 has been waxing philosophical lately. last night i had a looong conversation about the morality of abortion with anish, drew, fishman, sam, and anthony that led to trying to answer the question of "what happens after we die?" heavy stuff. personally, my afterlife is a combination of Avatar and The Last Unicorn.
to brighten the mood, i want to show you guys some of my favorite webcomics! drew probably knows them all already but whatever. nerd.
perry bible fellowship:
xkcd:
toothpaste for dinner:
nataliedee (she's married to the guy who does toothpastefordinner):
i also like beartato, but for some reason i can't put any more pictures on this post! lame!
so i was thinking, as i lay me down to sleep, of some clever ways of presenting this blog if we were ever to write a movie/song about it or bk4, and here are some of the titles i thought of:
my blog skip
cats and blogs
all blogs go to heaven
slumblog millionaire
the shaggy blog
must love blogs
the house of sand and blog
bk4 your eyes only
the land bk4 time
citizen b-kane
it's a wonderful bk4life
burn-krant after reading
burn-krant notice
the wizard of blogs
who let the blogs out
how much is that bloggie in the window
bk4 he cheats
bk4 your entertainment
fall bk4 you
you ain't nothin but a hound blog
alright, i'll post more later when i'm not falling asleep. sorry if i failed you, blog followers!
This weekend we all met Sonya, Sonal's terrible-at-pretty-much-everything except bocce ball alter-ego. That was fun.
What song should we do our next music video to?
Announcement: As Anish has mentioned, I have promised the bloggers that after we reach 100 posts, the blog nazi retireth and the VonTrapp family bloggers can escape over the mountain (including Friedrich, who eventually grows up to be a fashion designer for Lady GaGa). This does not mean the blog is ending, but it means that I won't be enforcing daily posts. The fate of the blog is up to you BK4. Have you been reading and enjoying without making a post of your own? Lend a hand! Replace a blogger that stops. Become the new digi-destined! Do you want to be the new blog nazi? Go for it. I personally want to have friends again.
Anyway, as promised, here are the raw, unedited video clips we used in the making of the infamous BK4 video
(All filming by Carlo)
Carlo: "Check out this music video for Telephone. We should make our own!" *Grabs bad-ass camera* "Steve, dance" Steve: "Huh?"
Steve: "Ok Carlo, now it's your turn"
Carlo: "Let's just go around the floor getting random people dancing"Steve: "JT! Dance!"*Notice the music video playing on the TV!*
After this, we started getting a lot more organized. Christina (three days later) "He should have said 'You've been a bad floor BK4, a very, very bad floor"
*Carlo had the genius idea of having drew filmed in front of an overexposed window - Great effect*
Fishman and Tom dancing in the bathroom
Viv and Malia also dancing in the bathroom. Same stall. Awesome.
Sexiest part of the video? You be the judge. Steve: "Now move down to the feet. Slowly..."
Tara: "I don't wanna be in the video [because I'm hella lame]" But I put her in anyway. 4 times.
Tandra: "I don't get it, how do I angry dance?"
"Sonal, you're indian!"
*Second sexiest part of the entire video?*Vlada's hips do not lie
Sam being awesome - coming closest to matching steve in improvised dance prowess
It took us only one try to get the elevators to do this. But we tried to get them to do it at the same time. It didn't work.
Brennan doesn't remember filming this.
And now the crown jewel: SONAL STUDIED THE DINER SCENE AND CHOREOGRAPHED THIS IN ONE DAYWe spent the next four hours doing this:
Philippe: "Hey guys, we should do a security camera angle" Philippe: "Hey guys, we should do a security camera angle" Philippe: "Hey guys, we should do a security camera angle" Philippe: "Hey guys, we should do a security camera angle" Steve: "WE WILL"
A treat for the outside world. Impossible to time. Totally worth it.
If memory serves me right, and this weekend it apparently did not, this weekend is Easter Weekend. It did not occur to me why my Friday morning discussion was cancelled until I saw an Easter egg drawn on Jon's whiteboard last night.
Presumably, most of BK4 has gone on an Easter Egg Hunt of their own, leaving the floor eerily quiet and empty.
Alas, as I am overloaded with work--many of it that I do not wish to do--I am unable to join in the festivities away from the floor. But never fear! I, along with several others, are honorably defending our floor. Though it seems that I have been more unproductive than ever. I cannot bring myself to terms with the fact that I actually have to do these final assignments, no matter how hellish they may seem.
Also, I am sure many of you have noticed that there are six weeks left in the semester--and in our freshman year. I personally am mentally checked out already--my classes are uninspiring and the assignments just seem like busy work to me. This, I believe, is the senioritis that never hit me last year.
But what boggles my mind is that I have a final on the very last day, and then I have to be out the door that very same day. I could at least get a day to rest, but no, they must insist that I am out that day--and I do not wish to pay extra money to stay. Besides, most of you will probably have moved out by then, and I do not want to stay on an empty floor.
Now, BK4! When you are down on your luck, watch this clip to get a laugh, and be happy that you are not either of these contestants!
