Lady Gaga

Saturday, January 9th, 2010

Oh yeah, before fans and antis start yelling at me, I’m talking from a point of like neutrality here. I don’t love or hate her, I just think she has good and bad points, like every human does.

Good points ::

* she actually has a great voice
* dances pretty well
* has a strange style
* mvs that have a story

Bad points ::

* background (which doesn’t matter as much at this point)
* theme of many of her songs

Alright so there were some pictures going around and even an article in the freakin Korean newspaper about how she looks like without makeup. And I go WHO THE FREAK CARES???? For one thing, pretty much every celebrity around the whole friggin world (yes, even the guys) has makeup on. Seriously, why wouldn’t they put on so much, especially in these times where it’s pretty much a requirement to put on makeup at the workplace? It’d be weird if they didn’t. And do you expect them to look ~stunning~ without makeup? What planet do you live on? Who says stars have to look all naturally pretty? Of course they’re gonna have masks painted on them for mvs and showings and such. I don’t complain about that so long as they have talent and Lady Gaga does have some talent, in my opinion.

I know her previous years of life weren’t that great, but whatever, she’s put that pretty much behind her and she’s a dediated singer now who has a great voice. At first she seemed typical and run-off-the-mill to me, but after a couple mvs and songs, she wasn’t that bad. But honestly, even the young girls on the street have clown masks on them and if you were to spray mad water on them, you’d think they were different people, too. Seriously. And also, makeup is sometimes a thing of art. In Lady Gaga’s case, it’s all about the art and how the makeup looks in general, like the style and colors and how it goes with the clothes, not really about making her look younger or whatever. Sure, she ends up looking pretty, but it’s really about the artness of it.

So whatever, if you still think that she’s an ugly no-personality hag, then that’s what your narrow-minded brain thinks and I have nothing to do with it.

Wow, 2010

The first decade of the millennium has already ended…..I just had to say it the epic way XD but really, a whole decade has already gone by and I’m in college now I feel so olddd ToT I remember when it was 2000, I was like what, 4th grade? GAAHHHH XD

Forgetting about the new year for a while, it’s time to look back on the past decade and see what we’ve accomplished. Let’s see…..a pointless war, lots of paranoia + xenophobia, and many celebrity deaths around the whole freakin world. Can we look at the positive things for a moment =.=” well we’ve advanced in technology as if we went through a time warp. Like seriously. Even in like 2004, cell phones were monochrome, fat and all with antennas. Now we got touchscreen smartphones popping out left and right. Macs back then were cutely round and colorful desktops. Now they’re seen as the epitome of computers. MP3 players had like 256mb (or whatever the number was) of memory, was bulky with no color screens and the like. Now we have things like the iPod Touch with 32GB stalking us. It’s been tech-crazy this decade.

Moving away from the techness, at the end of the decade, we have elected our first “black president”. I’m not going into the whole technical thing about how he’s not all completely black, it doesn’t matter. Honestly, how many people would’ve known that? Even I didn’t know before until people started yelling it out as if they were protesting…..bunch of losers *rolleyes* seriously though, the “majority” of America has finally looked past skin color. Racism is seriously an old habit and is just UGH now, but that’s a whole other rant for another time x]]

In terms of fashion, that’s certainly been a fun house, too. 80′s fashion is creeping around again and Asia has officially gone awry with ideal boyfriends being a guy that’s prettier than his girlfriend. Which I don’t mind. It’s funny, actually. My only complaint is that girls have become rape magnets but that’s their problem, not mine.

Now in terms of music, it’s just gone DOWN. In the early 2000s, music was mad good, even in America. But now, not so much. Unless you’re like those rock bands *cough cough Linkin Park cough* or like Lady Gaga (also gonna be another separate topic), you just aren’t gonna stand out. Some of the long standing artists like Kelly Clarkson and Beyonce are also respectable and still going strong with worthwhile songs. But the new artists popping up are just like ugh stop making my ears bleed. Even in Asia, they’re resorted to nothing but repetitive club and ballad music. They don’t really praise (or just even accept) things like rock. I’m not just saying that cause I like rock (it’s the BEST XD) but in general, a country made up of nothing but dance and ballad isn’t really that great. You need diversity in music, too~~ a great mix is always awesome ;P I just don’t understand why Asia (alright, well…..KOREA to be more specific, since China and Japan are like rock rockkk) doesn’t like rock so much. I mean, they act all “excited” when there’s a rock band, but really, none of their faces really say “I’m liking this”. And there are some really great rock artists in Korea that I love. It’s really a shame and a waste =.=;; what these people really wanna see is more pointless girl groups and club music that has no meaning whatsoever.

Getting off topic xDDD ….but yeah. From my point of view, decade hasn’t been the best in general, like global-wise. As for my personal life, it’s been the time in my life that had the most change cause it’s when all the graduations happened and when all the core friendships were made and when I went through all the teen drama XD life-wise, it was awesome ^^
