Yeah, so maybe July 4th was yesterday. It's the thought that counts, right? Better late than never? Some other cliche expression? Cooool.
Being that I am Canadian, not American, I'm more of a July first kinda kid. Ya know, Happy Canada Day! Seeing as it was a cloudy, not-so-summery day, it didn't feel particularly celebratory. However, I did watch the firework by Waterfront, with the Olympic flame burning bright behind me, so I suppose I did get into the Canadian spirit a little. I attempted to photograph the fireworks as well. Keep in mind, this is the first time I'd tried this, and I didn't have a tripod (or much patience, really). Here are the (somewhat disappointing) results...
Alright, so those are just a few. The smaller they are, the better they look. Admittedly though, definitely not my best.
In hopes of redeeming myself, here's a sweet song a friend showed me...
On Melancholy Hill, Gorillaz
Here are a few interesting things about this video:
1) The song in this video doesn't start until about 0:34
2) The ship is under attack! By pirates! (But don't worry, the little masked girl has it under control with her big gun)
3) Snoop Dogg makes an appearance? (2:10)
4) I think I might be imagining this, but in some parts (ex. 1:04), I swear that in the background there is a quiet, garbled "Al-eh-foryaaaa"... as in "California"... like from the song "California Gurls" by Katy Perry featuring Snoop Dogg. Coincidence? I honestly don't know. (Side note: California Gurls video = confusing and weird on so many levels)
5) 2:19-2:24 makes me smile. That's all.
Hope you enjoy this rad song!
