Babymetal


Happy Fox Day!

I've said a little something about Babymetal before. First things first, I'm obsessed with Babymetal. Half of the music I actually listen to these days is Babymetal. The other half is literally Christmas music or other stuff that comes on Pandora. Their album, Metal Resistance, came out today. Last night I couldn't sleep because I was so excited for this album. All day I was happy. I said "It's Fox Day!" every time I walked into one of my classes and threw my hands in the fox sign. I kept exclaiming "Today is a great day!" and it is. Metal Resistance is fantastic! They started the album out with Road of Resistance with was such epic start. I love Road of Resistance, which was also featured on their first album. Their live version of this song is literally a masterpiece. One of my favorite songs by Babymetal is KARATE, which is a newer song that's on Metal Resistance. It's honsetly so good. The guitar and drums in it are killer! My favorite songs from Metal Resistance has to be KARATE and GJ!, which was sung by only Moametal and Yuimetal. By the way, Moametal is the one on the right, Yuimetal is on the left, and Su-Metal is in the middle. {I am a horrible person and just found out who is who today because for forever, I thought Yuimetal was Moametal and Moametal was Yuimetal. To be fair, their website does say Yuimetal is on the right and Moametal is on the left.} Moametal is my favorite, even though I thought she was Yuimetal ever since today. I'm debating wheter Yuimetal is my favorite now because she is adorable and maybe that was why Moametal was my favorite. Anyway, I love Babymetal. Their music is so unique, combining heavy metal with J-Pop. Some of their songs also include other styles of music. For example, Uki Uki Midnight has dubstep in it and Iine! has an adorable rap interlude {which ends with a hardcore metal drop}. I just love their music and they make me so happy. I'll do more posts on other bands and music and of course, Babymetal in the future, but I'm doing to wrap it up here. Happy Fox Day guys! Bye 4 now!

How To Make Mondays Better


Let's face it, no one likes Mondays.

Ahhh, Mondays. They're here to stay. Mondays are the start of the dreaded week. Whether it's school or work that interrupts the weekend, it's Monday's fault. I hate Mondays just as much as the next person does, but the other day, I watched a video that talked about how to make Mondays awesome. So, I'm going to take some ideas that were in that video and some of my own that can hopefully brighten your Monday. 
  1. Plan something exciting for Mondays. People don't look forward to Mondays because there's usually something dreadful that starts up on Monday. Plan something fun to do. Hang out with a friend after school or go out for ice cream for dessert. 
  2. Wake up a do a dance. Sure, may have to wake up early after sleeping in late on the weekend, but you can jazz yourself up by waking up and dancing. 
  3. Make things easier for the morning. Prepare yourself a special breakfast, pick out your outfit, make lunch, do whatever you think will be helpful Sunday night so you have less to worry about on Monday morning. {This can go for mornings in general though}
  4. Find a YouTuber who uploads every Monday. This may seem silly, but every Monday, you can look forward to one video by a YouTuber who you really like. It could just simply put a smile on your face.
  5. The last tip is to rename Mondays. Call Monday something you like! In the video, it was suggested to call Mondays Mr. Rogers. Everybody likes Mr. Rogers! 
I have some more posts planned for the future. I hope you enjoyed and followed one of theses ideas to make your Monday a little less bitter. Bye 4 Now!
