Dancing FAIL

A group of my friends and I are trying out for the talent show. Are we going to get in? Probably not... (don't tell ____ I said that .O.) Anyways, one girl made a mix tape of a bunch of different songs. Problem? We've been working on the Lucky Star dance for about a week and a half, and we've just about finished it. We're pretty off task, and at every practice, there's always someone missing, so then we have to get them caught up at the next practice and ahhhh @.@

Right now, we're trying to learn Ring Ding Dong by SHINee. It's no piece of cake, especially since my hips seem to be nonexistent... T^T
The chorus part that we're learning starts at 0:18. It's kinda hard to learn it from this video since it's not the dance version, I can't find that one >.< so I'm looping bits of the MV on infinitelooper.com, which is my favorite site to learn dances from. ( Let's get this straight, I don't dance...or at least, I didn't until last week) I'm starting to get sick of this song, after listening to the chorus looped for an hour or so O_O And I really don't know why, but I can NOT do the hula-hoop hip thing at the beginning of the chorus! >.< My hips can't, or won't, move. I look like an awkward turtle...



And yeah...Makes me feel incompetent or something... >.>
A lot of girls are having breakdowns too...anxiety attacks and such...the leader broke down twice, she's sooooo stressed out! I told her to chill, if we don't make it in, oh well, we tried our hardest, etc. Because it's not like we're not trying. We've been practicing a couple of hours a day pretty much every day after school for the past week. I just want it to be over already. We have three minutes to perform and wanna know how much we've got down? Just the Lucky Star dance, so, about thirty seconds. I really don't know what happened with my attitude. Last week I said, "Let's do this thing!!!" Today I thought, "Can I quit now?" I guess it's because I can feel the impending doom of failure, and I really don't like failing. I have a bunch of projects due soon as well, and I'm not going to sacrifice academics for a talent show performance, no matter how "great the experience will be." Man, I'm starting to hate this blog now. Seems like I'm fuming half of the time, which I probably am... =-= I'm disappointed in myself. But I can't blow off steam at my friends and family, since no one wants to listen to a 14-year-old teenage girl's problems, so might as well do it here, where the only people that look at this blog are bored strangers that I will never meet with in real life.

Aaaanyways, I went off topic again, didn't I? Aaaagh. I like the Lucky Star dance <3 Minimum hip movement involved. ^^ But grrrrr, SHINee... Why do you have to be so difficult to learn? Even my boy friend can move his hips more fluently than I can.

Feel like screaming every time I see this GIF, although I'll probably laugh about it later. Ahh, it's nice  to just chill at home and eat belgian chocolate (my friend gave me a huge bar of it for my b-day, love ya sweetie) and type a blog post. I could almost forget that tryouts are in 2 days from today, English project's due Friday, etc. Ahhh. *sigh* Would it be so much as to ask for one day to sleep? I was so tired today. My science teacher called me out because I was watching her and I think it was taking longer and longer for my eyes to open. Aaaand, that's it guys. Wish me luck on trying to get my straight-as-a-board body to do the hula-hoop XD .... _ _lll      T^T

Attack on Titan (Shigeki no Kyojin) Summary :3

<--- push da play button .D.


I've found an anime that blew me away. Wow. Attack on Titan, or Shigeki no Kyojin, is an amazing anime. I was speechless before the opening was even over. Wow. The story centers around a boy named Eren Jaeger, and his adopted sister, Mikasa Ackerman.
. 

They live in a world filled with titans, giants with a desire to eat human flesh. To prevent human extinction, the last of the humans built huge walls, 50 meters high and hundreds of kilometers long, around themselves. There are three walls called Wall Maria (the outermost wall), Wall Rose (middle wall), and Wall Sina (the innermost wall housing the capital). Picture a target. It's kind of similar to that.





 Eren and Mikasa live between the outer and middle walls. Wall Maria hadn't been destroyed for a hundred years, so no one expected the titans to come, if ever. Of course, things happen when you're the least prepared for it. Suddenly out of nowhere, a giant lightning bolt comes down and poof, a HUUUUGE titan, larger than all the others, appears and starts to break down the wall. The other smaller titans get in, and all hell breaks loose.

 Eren realizes that where the titans had gotten in was where his house was, and his mom was still inside. His dad had left for a business trip right before the titans invaded, and Eren and Mikasa had been out and about at the time. They run to see if she is all right, and they see that their house had collapsed, trapping her legs. They attempt to free her, before an approaching titan comes to eat them all, but their efforts are useless. Then Hannes, one of the wall's protectors, comes in on the scene and their mother begs him to take the children and run. Hannes says that he will fight off the Titan and rushes at it. He freezes and races back to them, scoops up Eren and Mikasa, and runs.

 You can tell from the picture that Eren can still see his mother and the titan. The titan scoops up his mother and eats her. And he got to watch the whole thing. Yaaay. I'm sure he wanted to watch that.

 But wow. This anime. Wow. Blew. Me. Away. The opening is amazing. The animation is excellent. The storyline has the perfect blend of tragedy, action, horror, humor, sci-fi, fantasy, heck, it has practically anything. No romance yet. So far.

So what are you doing here, watching me ramble on and on? GO WATCH IT! I didn't describe it well enough to give it credit. Go be your own judge. Watch one of the best animes ever created. And prepare to be shocked, prepare to cry, or at least be a little sympathetic.
