So I'm Having Second Thoughts

Hey guys, girls, and any combination of the two that happened to stumble across my blog. I've been thinking. Why limit my critique to ONLY youtube videos? I've been considering changing "This Week In Youtube!" to something more along the lines of "The Weekly Review" where I review anything that comes to mind. Now, this doesn't mean I won't be reviewing youtube videos, but I won't review them as often. I'll review things such as other people's blogs, commercials, people, etc. I'm still not for sure if the change is going to happen, and if it does, the page will still probably look the same, with the ravens, but the title and description will change. I appreciate your thoughts and opinions on this change!

EPIC ENERGY!!!!!

GRAAAWWWW!!!! EPIC ENERGY!!!! Epic Energy was a commercial made by yours truly, with some help of my friends for my New Media class. I'm kind of biased on this, but I personally thought the video was hilarious. Although due to the camera quality and the quality of the other actor, who's name cannot be mentioned, I give it a 9 out of 10. Great video all around.

The Transformed Non-Conformist

Alright guys, this isn't a youtube video, but it's still great. This review is on a blog created by a friend to the family. The name of this blog is "The Transformed Non-Conformist", drawn from the bible verse, Romans 12:2, "Do not be conformed to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind." In this blog, the writer simply writes about whatever is on his mind that day. His writing style is all his own, and his cleverness shines through in all he says. One thing I enjoyed about his blog is that he gives us some insight into his personal life, establishing a connection with the reader right away. I wish I could put this sense of personality into my writing, but unfortunately, due to the level of privacy I must maintain due to the requirements of my class, I cannot provide such insight to my personal life. Personally, I am glad that he has chosen to start writing in his very own blog and I am sure that all of you readers will enjoy reading his blog.

Hide yo kids, Hide yo Wife (Bedroom Intruder Song)

So by now, most of you have heard this song, which you can actually now download on itunes. This was taken from the Bedroom Intruder news story and made into a song. It had me laughing the entire way through, and it also has been stuck in my head for the past 10 minutes. This video got an 8 out of 10, mainly because the song was repetitive.

Russian 11-year-old Beat-Boxing

This video blew me away. One talent that I have always envied in others is the insane ability to beatbox well. In fact, if I could change only one thing about myself, it would be my ability to beatbox. This little eleven year old is one of the best beat boxers I have had the pleasure to listen to. When watcing this video, I realized, this little girl has the potential to do something with her life. I hope this girl makes it big, then I can say that I reviewed her youtube video years ago.

"Like a Good Boy"

"Like a Good Boy" is a parody of my personal favorite song of all time, "Like a G6" by Far East Movement. This song is, like the House parody, done by Nigahiga. I loved this parody, mostly because the lyrics made me laugh and they were easy to understand, as well as memorize. Rather than just posting each of Nigahiga's videos with the rest of the videos, I just changed the link to Nigahiga's personal youtube page. I recommend browsing the videos and watching those that appear interesting. With classics such as, "How to be Gangsta" and "How to be a Ninja", these videos will have you laughing nonstop. Nigahiga's videos are all clean, with the exception of possibly a quick mentioning of one of the "lesser" curse words. All in all, Nigahiga himself gets a perfect 11 out of 10.

Walrus Doing Sit-Ups

This is what I call an inspirational video. This video shows that we can learn from animals. I say this simply because this walrus does better sit-ups than the majority of the teenagers in my physical education class. The video is played to the song, "Eye of the Tiger" and it fits.
