Say What?

The Super Bowl coming up this Sunday, it is not only known for the sports but it's advertisement endeavors. Why you ask??... Well Duh product promoters know that it is the only day that fans of all different sports, nails, clothes, and whatever gather around to watch the big event.(ie. myself, who doesn't even know what goes on while i watch it lol). But anyways, because of so many views, there are commercials on T.V that captures the viewers attention and draw them in to buy their products. Some of you by now may be scratching your head asking "Where is she going with this?", well I'll tell you...
Did you know that 30 seconds of air time cost around 3 million US buckaruees!??? Why 3 mill? Because all of you "fake fans" choose to watch this big event on this one specified day! Don't worry I'm fake too when it comes to this... but yea.... What makes it funny is that some Organizations are so desperate to save money that they have one second ads.. I doubt they would air these ads over National TV but if you look it up on youtube, im sure you'll find it. Hopefully when you view it, you can figure out what they are advertising! lol

When The Money Goes

It's true we're in a recession. But do many of you guys know why we're currently in recession?  Well the reason why we're in a recession is because people are not buying things.  This is why you see major companies shutting down and closing their doors forever (R.I.P. Circut City), people get laid off from their jobs, and it seems as if we're in despair.  Money is not being circulated throughout the country, hence our dollar is weaker because it does not hold the same value that it once did when people used to spend like it was going out of style.  Now I'm going to sit and rant to you about our economy because, let's face it, IT'S DEPRESSING!!!! (to say the least)  You can be smart with your coins and still not be cheap.  

p.s.  If you're old enough for this due to recieve one of those shiny new stimulus checks (which I doubt because I don't think our fanbase is that diverse yet), don't take it and make the rich become richer i.e. pay bills.

Just a thought for today

Light 'Em Up

I'm a sucker for the unusual (most of the time), and these are just that.  Alife created their own brand of lighters.  Now I don't know what I would use this for, but I want one (in blue please).  I don't know how much regular lighters cost but you can grab a few stacks of pennies and pick these up for $5 over at alifenyc along with many other great urban items.

The Lonliest Number

Cia.E has been having technical difficulties today so I don't think she will be posting today. Yea, I know, all of you who are her fans must be crushed today, just as you were yesterday; but I promise that as soon as she fixes her business she will be posting again. Until then, you're stuck with me *rubs hands together in evil manner*. I mean...what could happen? *lets out devilish laugh*

Flashing Lights

I love photography and all the artistic possibilities it has.  One day I'm going to be able to afford a camera like this.  This is the Nikon D700.  It has 12.1 megapixels, 3-inch display, 51 point autofocus, scene recognition, four-speed active dust reduction, ISO up to 6400, 5  or 8 fps full resolution shooting, HDMI out, and I'm sure there's more where that came from.  

Translation: It takes really really nice pictures

It costs $3,000 for the base, and up to $2,000 for additional lenses.  I need to keep stacking my pennies if I'm to ever get something like this. I guess I'll have to stick with my Black on Black 14.7 megapixel Samsung TL34HD. (The picture is the silver and red one)

Who Cares about the Season....

The latest trends you can catch on the West Coast where the Sun always Shines or in the East where White is always the Color of the day, are SCARVES!! They come in some many different varieties such as plush, satin, and cloth. They make great accessories to enlighten that special outfit. They serve as two purposes too. Who doesn't want something that keeps them warm and can look good in it too!!?! While I was surfing the web for some of these "fashion musts" I stumbled upon this page with helpful instructions on how to make your scarf look good. 7 Ways to Wear a Scarf. Enjoy I know I did!

No I Already Graduated

BKeem: 

Today was the last day of Midterms at my high school and I must say it's a bittersweet feeling.  I basically only had two midterms, the rest were just a "for what?" My English exam was annerving because there were 3 short essays to write on top of other things, but I finished most of it in time. My AP Calculus exam was the absolute WORST, I swear I guessed by the number that I liked the most.  I mean, I tried but it just did not help.  I really need to pray that I guessed right and end up passing that thing.    

Cia.E:  

1.22.09 Marked the official last day for me to ever midterms EVER, EVER, EVER, EVER again in my high school career.  What can I say, tests are tests and there are no ways get past them.  So I tried my hardest on each exam.  The hardest part of exams were me overcoming my fall over a paper ball lol (I have no coordination).  They're over YAY!!!!
