TOMS aka Orphan shoes

So I was looking on the internet today and realized I know what I should buy myself for Christmas, let alone I do buy myself something once in a while just for the hell of it and I feel that everyone should get something nice for themselves once in a while just to make you feel better. 
        Or maybe this is my over-shopping feelings kicking in. 
        Anyways, I was on Journey's website about over an hour ago to look at getting a new pair of Vans or simple tennis shoe that's cheap so I could buy a couple pairs to match some outfits that I don't have shoes to match. I feel that shoes really do make the outfit. So I was looking around and came across some TOMS that were on sale, and there were my thoughts in this order.
Hey, they're on sale!
Why not click on them?
Click
Oh, these are those shoes those hipsters wear
Not even hipsters, just people
People who aren't mainstream
Why is it mainstream?
These look like shoes orphans wear
Poor orphans can't afford shoes
But these are $54?
Jesus, those are rich orphans
They probably killed their parents for money
And bought Toms
Oh that's horrible.
But they are cute.
And orphan-y.

As you can read, I probably have ADD because I think of all these weird things when in reality I should just be focusing on the shoes. But so I was looking at them, and even they do look orphan-y, they are cute and come in a lot of different colors and designs. So what do you think of them? Are they worth the price tag to look like my parents don't care about me? 

Now I don't have to sell my kidney!

I'm just kidding about selling my kidney. Not really, I was getting broke off my ass.

And by me saying, 'broke off my ass' I really do mean that. 
I like shopping too much and have an impulsive attitude when shopping which encourages me to buy things at the spur of the moment that I really didn't need. COUGH WHITE FUR BOOT THINGS THAT SNOOKI WEARS COUGH. Oh goodness, does anyone have the over-spenders anonymous number? 

Anyways, this weekend while I was at the mall with Ben I was joking saying, "Oh I should work at Victoria's Secret! Than I could find some more boyfriends." (I was being completely sarcastic and laughing about it) and he was like, "You really should, you could easily get a job there!"
So about 15 minutes later after looking at the new sparkly hoodies, new yogas and the new perfumes I went up to one of the sales ladies and asked if they were hiring, and she said she didn't think so but she would ask. 
       While waiting for her answer, one of the managers said that she was hiring about a week ago but said I should still fill out an application. While I was filling out the application, the other manager and me had a great conversation about working and the hoildays and basically everything involving Victoria's Secret. So after filling out the paper work, which everyone hates, she said that she wanted to give me an interview. 
          Long story short, the interview went great and she basically hired me on the spot! :) She scheduled me as a seasonal worker for the semi-annual sale and said if there were no problems I would stay with the team. 
         So I went back in today for her to schedule me and we set up my hours, (basically after school on Fridays and Saturdays) and explained how I got paid $7.47 an hour, I get a 30% discount, how to schedule days off, where everything is, showed me my locker, and basically explained how I was going to get trained. Everything is going great so far and I've always wanted to work at this store since I do shop there all the time and basically could fill up their store with my closet. I hope I stay at this store for a long time.

Did I mention I got the job at Victoria's Secret?

Reasons you shouldn't be kidnapped and delete your Facebook.

What would you do if you were talking to a guy you didn't know on the internet, and he kidnaps you than he lures your friend in and kidnaps her?


That's basically what this movie is with SPOILERS.

Before you jump to conclussions thinking that I'm some creeper who spends my free time watching movies about kidnapped people and all of that, let me explain.

It all started one night when I was bored and was searching through Netflix for something new and scary to watch, (I shouldn't watch scary movies because I think they won't bother me when in reality, I'm scared and never want to go outside for a few days or even sleep with the lights off.) so I saw 'Megan is Missing' as one of the titles about a 14 year old who talks to a guy online and how it esclades from there. After watching this movie all I can say is

OH MY GOD.

It starts out about Megan who is 14 and really popular in school and has a horrible home life, with her mom saying that she never wanted her, blah blah and she has a best friend named Amy who is 14 also but is more shy and has a great home life. Megan is talking to one of her friends on Skype and her friend said that she should add this guy named Josh because he's really hot and everything, but he can't Skype because his dog chewed the camera. So Megan decides to start talking to Josh and when she asks about being able to Skype, he says that his brother broke it. SKETCHY, YOU SHOULD HAVE STOPPED TALKING TO HIM MEGAN. BUT YOUR 14 AND THINK YOU KNOW EVERYTHING RIGHT?
But so she decides that it's not a big deal. So they keep talking every day and he invites her to this party he's going to where she lives, so her and Amy go to this party where you have to pay $10 to get in. IF IT'S YOUR FRIEND'S PARTY YOU SHOULDN'T PAY TO GET IN. I WOULDN'T PAY OR LET ALONE GO TO A 14 YEAR OLDS PARTY IN A EMPTY HOUSE.
So while everyone is drinking or doing illegal drugs, poor Megan waited over 4 hours to meet Josh while Amy is feeling awkward and doing nothing. So she goes home that night and she messages Josh saying, "I waited over 4 hours for you to show up and you never did." and he replies by saying he was there and explains her outfit exactly and says he was to shy to talk to her by how pretty she is. So she buys it and they decided to meet behind a diner that night. WHO DOES THAT? YOUR ASKING TO GET KIDNAPPED IF YOUR MEETING SOME GUY BEHIND A DINER. WHY DIDN'T YOU MEET HIM SOMEWHERE PUBLIC AND SAFE? Jesus.
So a few days go by and no one has heard from Megan and now she is declared missing and the news are all over it saying the last time Megan was seen was in a security tape that shows her being grabbed by some guy. Now her mom is acting like her daughter meant so much to her and blah blah blah. So now people are looking at Amy because they're best friends and think she had something to do with it. So being the good friend that Amy is, she messages Josh saying that she thinks that he kidnapped her and he denies it saying he's worried about her too. OKAY OBVIOUSLY HE'S GOING TO SAY HE DIDN'T KIDNAP HER. ANY CREEPER WOULDN'T SAY, OH YEAH I DID KIDNAP YOUR FRIEND. SORRY.
So than Amy starts talking to Josh and he's saying how she's so pretty and he liked her the whole time, and of course she's going to believe that because she's 14 and doesn't have much of a confidence which is sad. So she sends him tapes of her in her room and everything, a tour of her house like Megan did and she makes another tape and you see a shadow in the background moving and than she get's kidnapped. WHY WOULD YOU SHOW SOME GUY WHO TOOK YOUR FRIEND YOUR HOUSE AND EVERYTHING? AND YOU SHOULD HAVE DELETED HIM AS A FRIEND AND GONE ON WITH LIFE.
 
Than it esclades quickly.
If you're easily scared or don't want to know what happens to Megan and Amy, stop reading this now.

So I thought this was the end of the movie, but it wasn't. I'm not going to explain what happens in the last 20 minutes but it made me feel awful, almost cry and angry at 'Josh'. And also delete my Facebook and cover my webcam on my laptop. WARNING, - THE ENDING IS GRAPHIC, I WASN'T EXPECTING THIS ENDING AND I HAD TO LOOK A WAY A FEW TIMES.

The scariest thing about this movie is the fact that this film isn't fake, it's real. And it scared me for life. It's shot to look like a documentary of the conversations and tapes when it was filmed in Hollywood, but the story about Megan and Amy is REAL. The producer took 7 stories about missing children and their cases and combined them together to show people that THIS REALLY DOES HAPPEN IN REAL LIFE. It's not just a freak incident, but things happen like this when you talk to people online you don't know. Especially this day in age. It changed how I feel about people online and made me go through my friends list and delete people, because honestly you've probably added a 'friend' that's actually a fake account someone made and you didn't know it or still don't know it.

New Dr. Dre song with Brittney Spears?

So I usuaolly blog about whatever is on my mind at the time and this is LITERALLY something I'm listening to at this very moment.

Scream and Shout by Brittney Spears feat. Will.i.am

At first I didn't even know that this was even a real song because when I was watching tv I heard the song for a Beats by Dr. Dre commerical, and I thought it was a mash up just for the commerical. Because it was showing Lil Wayne, All American Rejects lead singer, some asian girl and just a mix up of people with their Beats. I was bored one night looking for new music and decided to look it up to see a new song from Brittney and Will.i.am called, 'Scream and Shout'

Before I even played it I thought, "Oh god, this is going to be so tacky or really good." And I was surprised. It was the song from the Dr. Dre commerical! :) And it's actually pretty good, compared to Brittney's other music which I'm not too big of a fan of. But there are some things I don't like about this computer made song.
  1. Brittney's voice. In the song she sounds british. Just imagine a british person saying, "When you hear this in the club, their gonna turn this shit up." No. Just no. You're like 30 and have kids. I doubt you're in the clubs anymore after you're problems.
  2. Will.i.ams voice sounds like a robot. Another huge sign of auto-tune. But that's personally me.
  3. I also think that it's tacky their using her quote from a couple years ago which is, "It's Brittney, bitch." If she's still trying to stay classy you're not going to keep saying that. Let alone say that.
For the things I do like
  1. The beat rhythmn of the song. It's on time and constant so it get's stuck in you're head easily because it sounds like club music. So because this is how I orginally got stuck into this song.
  2. The chorus of the song that's really addicting is when they go, "I want to scream and shout and let it all out, we're saying "Ohhhh Weoooh Weoooh Weooooh" It's kinda annoying but it reminds me of the the football games. Don't even ask me why.
  3. This isn't really a positive, but I feel like this is going to be the theme song of 2012. It's kind of a neautral feeling.
 What do you think about this song? (418)
