Burning Up: On Tour With The Jonas Brothers

yesterday i went to walmart and bought the jonas brothers book...i finished reading it today and i must say it was quite interesting!! some of the pictures just cracked me up, and the captions were even better!! like this one, for instance:




yeah...that one's great...anyway, some of the stuff in the book reminded me of certain people...like pretty much everything nick wrote reminded me of megan, and the stuff joe wrote reminded me of both myself (which kinda freaked me out) and a very concieted person (which disturbed me because of my prior observation) because of the 5 million pages that were about him...whatever, overall the book was pretty cool...definately worth the 15 bucks i paid for it!! also, i kinda dig some of the fashion choices made by the guys, like joe's red suit and gold jacket and all of their sunglasses...i also really liked a hat one of them was wearing...i cant remember who...but yeah, that was random...so anyway, just go read the book cuz theres more than just funny pictures and nice clothes in there...some of the stuff they wrote was really...well, nice, for lack of a better word!! like, it shows their emotional side, i guess...you know, what they're like offstage and away from the cameras...they really have close ties to each other and the rest of the family and you can tell they really enjoy what they do...just go out and read the book!! im tired of writing about it...well im actually not digging my computer so much right now cuz of the dumb photobucket incident, but thats a whole different story!! so yeah...later...

Christmas Music

im a fairly unenthusiastic person when it comes to most holidays, and christmas is no exception, but this year im kinda starting to get a bit more into the spirit...i guess because im starting to hear some familiar songs (and some not-so-familiar) sang by people who can actually sing...no offense, but johnny cash and elvis have some of the most annoying voices ive ever heard and they should not be allowed to record holiday albums...it doesnt help that my mother has some kind of strange obsession with christmas song and needs to buy every new holiday cd that comes out!! anyway, back to the better artists...here are some examples:

  • hawk nelson's christmas cd, including "last christmas"
  • taylor swift's "santa baby" and "last christmas"
  • the jonas brothers' "girl of my dreams", "joyful kings", and "christmas song" (that ones really really REALLY old...)
  • flyleaf's "christmas song"
  • fm static's version of "christmas shoes"

you can look all of them up on youtube...but yeah, since im hearing more and more christmas songs being recorded by artists with actual talent, i haven't minded most of the christmas spirit this year...its weird, i know...of course, im STILL not crazy about all these unecessary holiday parties my mother insists on throwing...people...ew...
