Most of the greatest unknown band/singers
1. Nikola Rachelle
A great mix of soul and jazz, Nikola has a little something about her that makes her lyrics unique and sweet, though not pop. Though she does not have an album out, she does have a three song EP out, which is available though iTunes.
Nikola's Myspace
Personal fav: Bullet
2. Lillix
One of the only all girl bands out there, with a rock sound (with a bit of pop) they master a great look at normal teenage grief. But the later sound is more harsh, and punky, they try to deliver a more mature sound in their sophomore album Inside the Hollow.
Though the band has 'taken a break', it seems that the Evin sisters have planned to pressure their on solo, careers.
Lillix's Myapce
Personal fav: Little Things
3. The AM Project
Okay, I'm not even sure if this band's got a label yet. All I know is: they rock.... hard. And the lead singer is Tina Majorino from Napoleon Dynamite. You can listen to a few of the bands songs of the bands songs on their Myspace.

Personal fav: Stormtossed Man
4. Dirtie Blonde
Great band, but haven't herd much from them lately. But they have a rock/pop-y sound. The lead singer's strong voice will pull you in... trust me.

Personal fav: Hard Times
5. Bonnie McKee
Now here's some undiscovered talent. There are no words to describe her...

Proving Dry Cereal Wrong!
Hey, if Bree can prove science wrong, I think I can prove cereal.
1. A friend of mine once told me that he spent a night in the ER after eating too much dry cereal, and doing so cutting his throat.
2. It makes all of us that can't drink milk, more intimated.
3. Too many to chose from.
4. And we end up posting meaning-less blog entry's like this one.
Conclusion: It's just a wast of time to prove wrong.

Movies (see what I'm watching)!
Well I just have to say that there are a bunch of movies I want to see, too many too name! And also because I can't remember them all right now.
1. Factory Girl
Summery: It tells a fictionalized story of mid-sixties socialite and Warhol superstar Edie Sedgwick, who is portrayed by Sienna Miller. Guy Pearce plays Andy Warhol, and Hayden Christensen portrays an unnamed rock star who is based upon Bob Dylan. After Sedgwick dropped out of art school in Cambridge in 1965, she moved to New York and met Warhol, who promised to make her a star. The movie portrays her rise to fame and subsequent downfall into obscurity.
Reason: The story attracts me, and I just love films ,any films, based in the sixty's.
2. The Nanny Diaries
Summery: Strapped for cash after her recent graduation from New York University, Annie Braddock (Scarlett Johansson) puts an ad in the newspaper, hoping to find a position as a nanny. Thankfully, a chance encounter quickly leads to potential employment with Mr. X (Paul Giamatti) and Mrs. X (Laura Linney), a wealthy Upper East Side couple looking for someone to care for their 4-year-old son, Grayer (Nicholas Art). Annie is a product of a working-class New Jersey family, where her mother (Donna Murphy) has dreams of her daughter becoming a respectable businesswoman. Meanwhile, Annie has her sights set on a career in anthropology. Suddenly, the prospect of working for some of the city’s social elite seems like a nice alternative. Annie has done some babysitting in the past, but she has no idea what she is getting herself into when she accepts the position. Mrs. X turns out to be the employer from hell – a pampered wife, whose increasingly outrageous demands take a considerable toll on Annie. Even worse, Mr. X is never around and Annie is basically caught right in the middle of the couple’s crumbling marriage. For the next nine frenzied months, Annie is forced to juggle between the pair, their dysfunctions, their son, and a new love interest (Chris Evans).
Reason: I loved the book and I also loved Scarlett Johansson, I think she's a great actress with lot's of talent (ans also maybe 'cause I want to see *cough* ChrisEvans *cough* *cough* .
3. P.S.
Summery: Louise Harrington (Laura Linney), is in her late 30s, divorced, and works in the admission's office at the Columbia University School for The Arts. She is shocked to find the application of Scott Feinstadt (Topher Grace), an artist with the same name of , and whose work bears a striking resemblance to, her old high-school crush, who was killed in a car accident twenty years prior. Louise arranges an interview and, just hours after meeting, the two begin an affair. Complications arise when it is revealed that her ex-husband Peter (Gabriel Byrne), is remarrying and is being treated for sex addiction. Things are further complicated when Louise's best friend Missy (Marcia Gay Harden), who stole the original Scott from Louise before his death, hears of the "new Scott" and tries to arrange a meeting.
Reason: I saw a bit of this movie on TV the other day, and now I really want to watch the whole thing.
4. Across The Universe
Summery: An original musical film, Across The Universe is a fictional love story set in the 1960s amid the turbulent years of anti-war protest, the struggle for free speech and civil rights, mind exploration and rock and roll. At once gritty, whimsical and highly theatrical, the story moves from high schools and universities in Massachusetts, Princeton and Ohio to the Lower East Side of Manhattan, the Detroit riots, the killing fields of Vietnam and the dockyards of Liverpool. A combination of live action and painted and three-dimensional animation, the film is paired with many Beatles songs that defined the time.
Reason: Well it's based in the mid 60's and is a musical (a good one). And I also love to watch Evan Rachel Wood.
5. Running With Scissors
Summery: The story of how a boy was abandoned by his mother and how he, later, abandoned her. The year he's 14, the parents of Augusten Burroughs (1965- ) divorce, and his mother, who thinks of herself as a fine poet on the verge of fame, delivers him to the eccentric household of her psychiatrist, Dr. Finch. During that year, Augusten avoids school, keeps a journal, and practices cosmetology. His mother's mental illness worsens, he takes an older lover, he finds friendship with Finch's younger daughter, and he's the occasional recipient of gifts from an unlikely benefactor. Can he survive to come of age?
Reason: Well also because of Evan, but also the story and the other actors.
6. Because I Said So
Summery: Keaton stars as Daphne Wilder, a mother whose love knows no bounds or boundaries. She is the proud mom of three daughters: stable psychologist Maggie (Lauren Graham), sexy and irreverent Mae (Piper Perabo) and insecure, adorable Milly (Mandy Moore) - who, when it comes to men, is like psychotic flypaper. In order to prevent her youngest from making the same mistakes she did, Daphne decides to set Milly up with the perfect man. Little does Milly know, however, that her mom placed an ad in the online personals to find him. Comic mayhem unfolds as Daphne continues to do the wrong thing for the right reasons...all in the name of love. In a hilarious battle of strong wills, the mother-daughter dynamic is tested in all its fierce, wacky complexity. The girls help Daphne finally discover the truths and impossibilities of motherly love, all while trying to answer the questions: where does it begin and where should it end?
Reason: I just love the whole cast, even though it scrrreeeaammss chick flick, I'd love to see it.
7. Marie Antoinette
Summery: Based on Antonia Fraser's book about the ill-fated Archduchess of Austria and later Queen of France, 'Marie Antoinette' tells the story of the most misunderstood and abused woman in history, from her birth in Imperial Austria to her later life in France.
Reason: I'm just a huge fan of Sofia Coppola films. She has the ability to write and direct the perfect movie.
8. Volver
Summery: Raimunda lives in Madrid with her daughter Paula and her husband Paco, who is always drunk. Her sister, Sole, is separated and works clandestinely as a hairstylist for women. The two sisters lost their parents in a fire in La Mancha, their birth village, years ago. Their aunt, Paula, still lives in the village and continues to speak about her sister Irene, mother of the two sisters, as if she were still alive. When the old aunt dies the situation changes and the past returns(volver) in a twist of mystery and suspense.
Reason: I herd good things about it, and also the poster. Can't go wrong with a good movie poster.
9. The Virgin Suicides
Summery: The film takes place in Grosse Pointe, Michigan in the 1970s, as four boys look back on their neighbors, the Lisbon sisters, five teenage girls who succeed in committing suicide. Half of the film takes place during the time before they kill themselves, and explores several possibilities that might have prompted them. These include the time the girls were kept indoors and were not able to leave the house because one of the girls, Lux Lisbon, spends the night out with her date.
Reason: Sofia Coppola, duh!
10. In The Land Of Women
Summery: Carter Webb, a young writer for television, is devastated when he breaks up with his actress-girlfriend. To get away from everything, and give his heart time to mend, he goes to suburban Detroit to care for his sickly grandmother. There he meets the Hardwickes, a family (of all women) in the neighborhood. In their own way, they all fall in love with him, and they help him to get over his girlfriend.
Reason: I really don't know what to say here, I mean Adam Brody practically plays the same role in every movie he's in. But Kristen Stewart is amazing, and so is Meg Ryan. So... watch it!

One Of The Best
I there is anyone out thee crazy enough to actually fallow this blog then you've must have noticed my obsession with Veronica Mars. And if there is anyone out there with the same problem, then listen to Neptune Pirate Radio. It's a great podcast about Veronica where they talk about the music and everything! You know I must be getting really boring so I think I'll just wrap it up already.
Till next time,
