Monty Python Status Day

Today, besides being the day of my birth, is International Monty Python Status Day '11. Since Monty Python and the Holy Grail is one of my favorite movies. I couldn't pick just one quote. Therefore, below are video clips of my favorite parts/quotes from the movie.

8 year old mind set

A friend on facebook posted a video of "Pool Party" by the Olsen twins. Of course this made me think of the numerous videos they did. I'm not just talking about To Grandmother's House We Go. I mean Passport to Paris, Winning London, Our Lips are Sealed, Holiday in the Sun, When in Rome, Billboard Dad, etc. Man I miss those movies. So of course I had to youtube them. For my, and maybe your, viewing pleasure, here are the youtube links for these fabulous movies.

The Awesomeness of BBC

BBC has done it again. Creating a show that sucks me in. I just need to pick up and go live in the UK. But back to the point of this post. My amazing high schoolers that I work with at Starbucks, they told me about a series called Misfits. It's a combination of Skins and Heroes. It's about a group of teens who during a storm gets struck by lightening and get superpowers. The entire series are about their lives and trying to survive day by day. Love it. I'm also loving the one character Simon and I just found out that the actor also sings. He was in Spring Awakening. Below is one of his songs. If you're interested in watching the show, you can watch it on youtube (that's how I saw it). The first ep of Misfits part 1:

BBC and Youtube

So last night at Starbucks I was talking with a couple girls about BBC shows and how amazing they are and how we are unsure how the Americanized versions of those shows will be. Starting this month there will be about 3 BBC shows that will become American. Skins on MTV, Shameless on Showtime, and Being Human on SyFy. I've also heard that Torchwood is coming to America (of course with a brand new cast because they basically killed everyone) but no more news on when that will start. Of course I will watch these shows to compare them to the British versions which were amazing. However, I do not have Showtime so need to find another way to watch that show. If anyone has any suggestions where I can see that....preferabley for free, let me know. As for the others, if you have seen them, let me know what you think!

Another topic last night was how I like youtube artists. And trust me there are a lot of artists on youtube better then the Biebs that haven't been discovered (As you can tell I don't like that kid). Anyways some of my favorites are Christina Grimmie when she performs with Sam Tsui and of course Sam Tsui. Below will be some videos that I like. But one of the girls said that there is a guy named Charlie McDonnell. Apparently he's British (*swoon*) and really good. I have yet to listen to him but hopefully will the next couple days. So enjoy some creative mixes and well done covers!

Acapella

One of my favorite shows (I do have a lot) is The Sing Off. I love acapella groups and this show finds amazing talent. One of the few groups that I loved was On The Rocks. They are an university acapella group that first got famous for a youtube video they did of Bad Romance. Below are some of the videos and songs that i love.
