"What Counts"

Hey, guys. I got a cool idea earlier, and I'm gonna try it out. But first, here's a little poem that might serve as a good introduction.

What Counts

What counts is not what other people think,

but what you think.

The person who calls your video dumb doesn't count,

but what counts are the good memories.

The person who stares awkwardly at you when you greet your best friend doesn't count.

What counts are all the laughs you just remembered.

So basically, this is just talking about today's youth, and their stereotypical reactions to almost everything. Everyone does this kind of stuff. People do things that count, and people do things that don't count. You can't deny it! It's how we are these days. In fact, there are probably a lot of people who are about to do things that "don't count" because of this post. Whether I know or not, they probably will. And that's what doesn't count. It's like the saying "it's the thought that counts", there are some things that are truly valuable in life, and somethings that don't even matter. 

Now that I have explained the concept, here's the second part. I am going to post a YouTube video talking about all of this same stuff, and what you can do is comment on that video or post a video response talking about what counts for you, and what doesn't count for you. If I approve, it will be posted here. You can also comment on this blog post. I really want you guys to think about this, seriously. 

Disney Land

Paris here, again. Since Collin didn't say much, he is going to Disney Land next weekend. The people that I know that are reading this, I know this because I wanted Nicole to come to my play, but she can't because Disney Land. If your wondering why he is going to Disney Land, is because dance team is performing there. They actually perform there every year. All 4 years that I was on team, I performed there. So, I gotta go. Collin, when you are reading this, if I can ask a favor, please blog on my blog because I don't have anything interesting. Bye.

My Friend Nikki's Contest

News and info!!!

PLEASE WATCH!!!! VERY IMPORTANT INFO ABOUT DANCE CONTEST AND FUTURE VIDEOS!!!

dance challenge music

Dance Challenge

More information is posted below.

word about dance contest

Nobody has any advantage over anyone else because of who is my best friend and whatever. It's completely fair.

dance contest prize

I came up with a few ideas for prizes:

-$10-$15 iTunes gift card

-I'm going to Disneyland soon, and I could buy something there

-LOLLIPOP!!! (boring)

PLEASE COMMENT AND GIVE ME MORE IDEAS!!! THESE ARE YOUR PRIZES PEOPLE!!!!!

DANCE CONTEST CHOREOGRAPHY POLICY

The policy is as follows:

The entire 30-60 must be all of your own choreography, and all choreographed. NO IMPROVISATION!!!!!!!! I can tell the difference between improv and choreography, and if I have any suspicions I will ask you to re-record your dance and post it again. You must meet the minimum requirements listed in the post below. Please be creative, and try to use the music as much as you can. What I mean by this, is, for example, when there's the little boom, hit a pose or something. Also, it would be really cool if you could come up with some kind of costume. It can be something from a dance at your studio or something, I don't really care. Just as long as your not in regular old, dumb boring dance clothes. I will post the scroring system after the first three entries.

dance contest

Hey guys! You may have seen my YouTube video "Dance Challenge", and if you didn't, you can go to my YouTube account (or look at the video bar) to see it. I tried to upload it here, but it didn't work. So here's the info.

I started a dance contest, where you download a song from my website and choreograph a 30-60 second dance to it. It must be all your own choreography, and it must all be choreographed. NO IMPROVISATION!! If you do improvise, I will suspect it (I can tell the difference when something has been made up on the spot) and ask you to re-record. There are also some technical requirements. 1) There must be a turn, like a pirouette. 2) In your dance, you must include two kicks at a minimum. 3) There must be at least one leap. I will devise my own scoring system, and each technical requirement will be worth a certain amount of points. THE SCORING SYSTEM WILL BE BASED ON THE FIRST THREE ENTRIES. Once you have recorded your dance, please post it as a video response to "Dance Challenge". To make it fair, the video responses will not appear on the video until the closing date of the contest. Also, I will not give out the usernames of the contest participants until the closing date. I will also be posting a choreography policy.

I will need at least five entries for the contest, and you may only enter once. The entries are due March 20, 2008.

THE ONLY MUSIC YOU CAN USE IS THE SONG LABELED "DANCE CONTEST MUSIC"

ssssooooooooo sssoooooorrrrryyyyyy

Hey guys I'm so sorry I haven't posted in like a month!! It's just that I've been really busy with dance and school. So, if you clicked on this link from my YouTube, you probably saw my channel title. I AM NOT TELLING HER NAME!!! I don't care if you know me from dance, from school, or if you only know me online, I will NOT tell. Period. Yeah.

teen advanced

So, there's this team at my studio that I really want to make, and auditions are only a few short months away. It's the next level up from the team I'm on now, and I REEEAAALLLLYYY want to make it. But, I don't think I will make it. Here are some reasons: 1) I am currently in 6th grade, and you normally don't make this team until 8th, but some really good 7th graders make it 2) there are a TON of other people who could probably make this team, and 3) there is already a boy who made this team in 7th grade, so he will definitely be on it again and I don't think they are going to put two boys on one team. But there's a lot of people who think I'm good enough and that I will make this team. I don't know all of the technical requirements, but I know of a few. Here they are:

-four a la secondes

-triple pirouettes

-moderate flexibility, so that your kicks look good

-turning leaps/capezios

-basic technique (pointed toes, straight knees, etc.)

I'm sure there's more, I just can't think of it right now. Please comment, and tell me what YOU think!!

What up Peeps?

Hey, what up people that read this blog, this is Paris. Just to remind you, this is NOT Collin. As I have told you before, I blog on this blog once in a while because I just get bored. People that are not Collin that are reading this, Collin had NO idea that I am doing this. I just did this out of the blue. Seriously, NOT kidding. I just wanted to say hi to all the people that are reading this that I know. I think Collin is not blogging because he is either to busy with school or dance. Being on a dance team is a lot of work. Trust me, I was on one for four years. I decided to stop dancing and work on my acting career. I REALLY want to be a famous actress. Jack if you are reading this lol. People if you don't know what lol means it means laugh out loud. I sometimes use it for blanks and for different reasons. So, goodbye people. Don't forget to check out my blog paristhetween.blogspot.com

Be sure to check it out!!

my problem with Time magazine...

Ok. I'm not racist. I don't have a very many problems with Obama, but there is something that has been bothering me. Have you noticed just how many times Barack Obama has been on the cover of Time magazine?? It's CRAZY!!! And then he gets person of the year for both Time and TKF!! Don't you think that's a little odd? All it does is give false hope to Americans because it leads them to think that their every problem will be fixed with Obama as our new president. Before all of the media attention, Obama was for sure not going to disappoint very many people, but now the attention has raised my expectations. He's only a human being for goodness sake!!!

Please comment, because I want to hear your opinions as well!

...unlike one magazine I know of *cough* Time

iHome problem: the solution!

I have found a solution to my iHome problem!! If you don't have a song playing, then it just goes to a random one. So, to avoid a random song, you just pick the song you want to wake up to, pause it at the beginning, and when the alarm goes off it will be the song you picked!! I feel smart now...

word of the week!

I have decided to try something new. Word of the week!! Every week, I will find a words that's very unique in one way or another. I will write about it on my website, and post a video about it on YouTube. There won't be any more Word of the Week stuff on this blog!! All of it will be on my website and YouTube account.

The first video will be up soon!!!

YouTube

Hey guys! I just want to take a minute to talk about things on YouTube.

I am done with having comments that have bad intentions. I will no longer tolerate comments that call me gay or any other word that means gay. No more!! The worst thing about those comments is that most of those people don't even know me, and are just judging me because of my passion. How dumb is that? And what is this world coming to when kids just go on the internet and call people terrible things, use extremely foul language, and don't even get in trouble because their parents just don't care? I also don't tolerate being called a girl or whatever in any way. You would be surprised at how many different words people use to say things like that to me. That's basically all I wanted to say. 

sorry

Hey guys! Sorry I couldn't make a video this past week. I was gone all weekend and REALLY busy during the week. I guess I'll have to make two amazing and awesome videos to make up for it...

The Paris and Jack Show

Hello, friends of Collin again! This is Jack for another time telling you about Collin's other friend, Paris. If you know who Paris is, then you might know what I'm talking about. But, if you don't know, then listen to this. Paris started The Paris and Nicole Show with her friend Nicole. Then after about three to four months, they stop the webshow because Nicole's friend made fun of her (that's mean and rude for a friend to say that to Nicole). Now, Paris and I have made a deal to start a vlog together. But, we don't have the name yet. For now I'm calling it The Paris and Jack Show. So, now I am Paris' co-host or co-worker. Check out The Paris and Nicole Show with this link. www.youtube.com/mmyhp. Also, check out my account too. www.youtube.com/jamesjack1313

Here's my new video. Enjoy!!

Also, the new Austin and Collin Show episode is up, so you should check that out, too.

Forks

Hey, guys! I recently went to Forks, WA, and I will post about that very soon. And yes, Forks is the setting of Twilight. And don't think I'm crazy obsessed with Twilight and went out of my way to take a special trip to Washington just to visit Forks. No. That's not the story. My grandma lives in Washington, and we were visiting her for Christmas. So, we went up to Forks. Lots of pictures coming as well!

bored out of my mind

Oh my gosh! I'm so bored today!! I hate it when there is just absolutely NOTHING to do at all. It's very frustrating. So, since I'm so bored, I've been blogging a lot. Not exactly posting, but like I just changed the template about six times. Not only did I just change the template, but I changed all the fonts and colors for those templates. AND I made a YouTube video to tell people on YouTube about my blog. I have also been instant messaging a lot. I think that's it for this post, but I'm going to post something else in a couple minutes. Bye!! 

the problem with iHomes

Hey guys! So, I got this iHome for Christmas, and it's awesome! It has a remote, so when I'm at my desk I can change the song. There's a slight downside though. I'm one of those people who has like 2000 songs on their iPod. And of course, I'm not in love with all 2000. Some songs on there I don't even like at all. Some songs, I don't know how the made their way onto my iPod! So what if one of those songs wakes you up? That's what happened to me. It was so weird! And I swear it effected my whole morning. Lots of bad luck! I wanted to take a nice, hot, relaxing shower, but of course the water had other ideas. How does a freezing cold shower sound? Oh, and don't forget the little bursts of hot water that give you hope, and then the temperature drops WAY down! I was hyperventilating in the shower! Yeah, not an excellent morning. I'm better now though. Bye guys!

By the way, the song that woke me up was "Get Ur Freak On" by Missy Elliott. ugh
