The Band Eclypse

I happen to be fortunate enough to be friends with most of the 8 members of The Band Eclypse. They are a local band that has a very promising future. Especially since they won the amateur contest at the Apollo theater multiple times and opened for KRS-One. These 7 guys and one especially talented girl are some pretty inspiring people. Scotty-drums, Andy-studio piano, Ziya-bass, Jeremy (Triple J)- rapping, Jamie-singing, Daniel (LED)-rapping, Eric-guitar, and last but certainly not least Matt also on guitar. They are ranging from Freshman in high school to college and they have varying schools. Their band has a fanbase of about 600 (facebook) But it seems to be a lot more. They performed at Don Hill's a club in NYC last night and i was their to experience the entire thing. They had the crowd going wild and even a few people running up on stage. Although, they experienced technical difficulties and had to take a few breaks the crowd continued chanting and screaming their name while they had to stop. Humorously, when they were fixing their technical problems they played popular songs and were dancing and had the whole crowd moving. Tonight, they are competing in The Break Contest to get into Bamboozle, which with very little doubt I think they will succeed to move forward to. They write all there lyrics and music within the band and include experiences and emotions that are easy to relate to in the crowd. Personally, i was jumping around and screaming the entire time, and i know everyone else seemed to have fun. This band has a promising future and i know that in that someday im going to be very thankful i knew them know and supported them all the way. Check them out(:

medical stuff

So, i have had my plate full with medical problems so why not list them. To start, i broke both of my pinky fingers, well one of my old friends did. I also have injured my lower ribs and never had them treated, they are kinda cool and movable. I was born jaundice and was in the hospital for my first 2 weeks of life. I've sprained both of my wrists multiple times, sprained my back, left elbow, and both ankles. I broke my pelvis (avulsion fracture), tore my hamstrings off the bone and straight across, and many ligaments and cartilage in that one accident. That was me in 7th grade doing a right split bounce to left... (four days before my bat-mitzvah and 5 before my birthday) That was by far my worst injury and i had to be in a wheel chair..I also have planter fasciitis which is VERY painful in my right foot. And i have TMJ, which hasn't really hit its most painful point so its okay(:. I have a cyst in my pineal gland of my brain, which causes a lot of headaches. For the past 30 hours or so my right hand has been shaking uncontrollably, so i got an EEG today, and am having a blood test and a few MRI's tomorrow. But i'm sure everything's okay and ill be fine. Ill keep you updated on that one. So yeah thats pretty much my medical history...

Ana

Hi...
So there is this girl Ana, I've known her since i was like 4 years old. Well as far as i can remember Ana's always been a part of my life. In elementary school we were like best friends and might i say we ruled that school. And then when we moved into Middle School everything changed...but us. We stayed like sisters up until this very day. She has a big, Cuban family that never lacks excitement. I spent christmas eve with their family and it was like nothing else. The entire family, a big dinner, drinks, dancing and PRESENTS! even though i was really the only non-family member there i got presents. It was amazing. Ana's fashion sense is amazing and its going to take her places in life, i know it. We've only really had one big fight in our friendship but we moved on and now we even laugh about it. We are sisters after all, that could never stop. And, being sisters of course I'm close with her family. Her mom is just like my second mom and ill give her a call or text her every once in a while. And every time i see her little brother and sister Owen and Inés i get a big hug and a kiss, there like my babies, i've known them since birth. Even some of her cousins i consider family. She's THE funniest girl, with a great sense of humor. And she will say what needs to be said in every situation which is something i love. We get along really well and are always there for each other not to say that we don't ever get along, cause we can piss each other off haha. But i love Ana and i always will!

Guys!

So, i have mostly guy friends because for me its easier to get along with. But I also like to have that one special guy there just for me(: So, to specify what that is there is a group on facebook that pretty much sums it up its called "102 things guys should know about girls " its pretty much a generalization because some of it is obvious and other parts are a little extreme. but basically, in my opinion, i think every girl is just looking for the guy that treats her like a princess and makes her feel good. But its also important for the girl to make the guy feel equally good, cause if not... shes getting dumped for being selfish. I've had a good handful of boyfriends in the past, and i really love just having that one special person. I know there is that great guy out there and I guess we will just have to see how that works out...

Best Friends that are like siblings

So, there are a few of these people out there for me. People i may have met not too long ago or the day after birth but some people in the world are just like siblings to me. They beat me up and protect me and help me out along the way. Im so thankful to have people like this in my life, because they are the one thing that keeps me moving with a smile on my face. Especially today when i've been upset about a lot of things one of my friends, Matt, has been there for me every minute and he somehow always manages to make me smile whether im super agry and venting or upset and crying. so i guess this is just my shout out to all the people who are like family to me out there. thanks ana for being mi bonita hermana and accepting me into ur huge family. thanks caroline for buying me a mug, thanks matt for being there. thanks richa/rishi for making me ur quad, thanks eric for protecting me, thanks scott for standing up for me. and im sure there are many other people who have been there for me today and other days. love you guys!

Comedy

I LOVE COMEDY!
i feel like that was the best way to start this....
So, i love three comedians mainly. Russell Peters- the amazing racist, well not really because he hates on everyone. Demetri Martin- the genius who makes you think. And Jeff Dunham- the guy who sticks his hands in puppets assholes and rocks at it.
So what do these three have in common? Nothing. except the fact that me and my good friend Rachel LOVE THEM. We can recite their entire acts on command. Most of our time spent together is talking about these three men. We will like you more if you know them or their jokes and if you insult them...well we cant really be friends with you. We saw Russell on his new tour (the green card tour) and even though i didn't personally speak to him, the moment i walked into the theater i started crying just being in the presence of him. I think these three men are incredibly brilliant and absolutely hysterical! I love Kathy Griffin too, she is crude and awesome. Don't get me started on Dane Cook, he is a joke stealing, over enthusiastic, hack. i dislike his comedy entirely. If there is anyone who you think is similar to my loves, let me know please (:

Advice

I love giving people advice... i guess its because i have a lot of outlook in life. I also seem to have a lot of life experience, i can click with all types of people. You know those high school cliches? Well i can fit into each one. Which gives me an awesome opportunity to help anyone in various situations. I like to be asked for help and can keep it between me and them if asked. If you want (you being a reader of this), any advice i would love to give it, email me or something!

CRUISES!!!


Cruises are my favorite vacation type ever. Its just like a whole big hotel/city on a ship! My last cruise I made many friends from all over the world, which was absolutely an amazing experience for me. On cruises you get to see multiple places around the world, yes only a few days of it are on land, but i like that. My last cruise was the BIGGEST ship on the water and it broke tons of records. It had tons of things for teens to do, so i kept very busy. The only sad part is that all the people will never be together in the same groups ever again. So after the week ends it just makes everyone upset. But ever since last week i havent stopped talking to my cruise friends so i guess its ok. Its really interesting how different people can be, from far away and even not too far away.

Formspring

Okay, for you people of the Internet who don't know the new trend. Formspring is a new VERY popular website. Like the application on facebook, honesty box, it allows you to ask questions either anonymously or signed to any person with an account. The person then receives the question and can choose to answer it or delete it. I have an account on this website, and well i LOVE it. Don't get me wrong its not like I'm praised on this website. I'm not praised at all. My comments are actually 90% mean. But my opinion on this is that its a way for people to give their completely honest criticism to you. Now a lot of the time its just immature cowards trying to start drama. But still i get a lot of respect for the way i answer. When someone says something really derogatory to me expecting to start a crazy fight. i take their opinion thank them for it respectfully agree or disagree and tell them i will try to improve whatever quality i have that they don't like. Most comments, i laugh about because i see how much of a coward people can be. If someone actually had a problem with me, i will respect it so much more if they say it to my face. A lot of people look at my formspring and think wow these people are all SO mean to Brittany, but wow look at her responses, she doesn't even fight back! and Ive gotten many IMs from people asking me why i post such mean things. And i simply tell them that its just peoples opinions and you have to learn to accept it and laugh later. But in the end, i LOVE formspring.

Regrets

So this is gonna sound weird... but i don't believe in regrets. Your like ok.... its not really a belief.... but yes, it sort of is. I think that everything happens for a reason and at the time you made the choice to do whatever that thing may be you chose that for a reason. I'm sure there are some touchy subjects where people wish things hadn't happened. We've all been there and wished that something didn't happen but a regret to me is something you wish didn't happen and would do anything to change that. Every decision made had a reason for it and will in some way change your future for the better.. or worse.

Blogs

Hi people of the Internet!
So, I'm new to blogging, i am an avid reader of one of my best friends blog, but I've never written on one before.
That's okay. how doesn't love new things!? I think blogging is a good way for people to put there opinions out to the public, or even make them private... why not? I think this will help me 1) get things out, so there not all bottled up. and 2) maybe get peoples opinions on mine? so yeah, I'm gonna try this blogging thing out and i guess we will just see where it goes. I'm sorry if not everything i write is exciting it mostly wont be... but ill put up some funny things now and again.
