Little Bit of 'New Girl' Related Trivia-ish?

Jake Johnson of 'New Girl' recently retweeted this old advertisement of his former sketch-group called 'The Midwesterners' 

The name, I'm guessing, came from his roots in Illinois, but this troupe was actually performing in New York while he was at NYU's Tisch.. (thanks, WIKI). 

Anyways. I love Jake.

I'm from the Midwest.

And I have enormous amounts of love for this little bit of trivia. 

For more on this man and his wonder... 

Google or something. 

Peace. 

'The Internship' was perfect.

If the fact that the whole film opened with Vaughn and Wilson singing along to 'Ironic' by Alanis Morissette isn't enough to make you go see this one, I don't know what is! 

Seriously. Anyone asking themselves how watching Vince Vaughn for two hours is a good idea should know that this is the most likable character he has ever played ...and probably will ever play. 

The themes and subject matter were lighthearted and full of positivity. There were numerous laugh-out-loud moments and you left feeling genuinely good. A game of Quidditch even took place! 

Some could say it was a bit predicable with maybe a hint of cheese, but honestly-- that seems to be lacking in a lot of films today... and I'm a girl who loves that kinda' thing. 

Overall, greatest part of this film was how it relates to, and makes light of,  the changing of times involving technology, and how it has created a HUGE division between our generation and the ones that came before us. I, for one, really loved seeing two old men trying to figure out what heck BETA and HTML mean.

...And it also inspired me to do the same. 

Hahahaha.

So, watch this peach... You'll be glad ya' did. 

Also, look out for Dylan O'brien who plays the attractive, yet arrogant, team member of Vaughn and Wilson in the 'Google' competition. He's going to be huge in coming years. 

And he's really pretty to look at. 

Two Big Opportunities and Two Big Leaps for Jesskind.

You know that feeling of pure terror, when you’re awoken by the brash “Marimba” ringtone, accompanied by a number that you can’t identify, and the decision to either answer, or simply let it go to Voicemail? Well, I faced this terror roughly an hour ago. (Yes, I sleep-in late because I’m a college student living at home getting like 3 hours of work each month…) 

ANYWAYS…

Luckily I answered the phone, because it ended up being an incredible call from the Worship Leader from my church. He started by inviting me to help produce and film the Small Group videos for my church’s Fall Small Group series (which is huge because these videos will be leading people through their studies for months). So that was amazing. (And extremely frightening because I have no idea what camera they even use, and no idea if I even remember a thing about producing videos from my few failed attempts throughout high school.) So there’s that exciting news, and an opportunity to serve the Church and God (maybe, if I’m even capable).

Also, he brought up the dreaded question of "why I haven’t continued to lead worship for my church (during High School, I lead Worship for the teen service) and why I was hesitant." I gave him the same answer I have been giving to everyone, which is "there are plenty of fantastic voices and plenty of people willing and WANTING to serve the church in that way, so I never have felt like it was right to do that." (Who knows if that’s the real reason I have yet to join the worship team again, because in the past I have felt apprehensive for numerous reasons. Sometimes I find myself, while singing on stage, worrying about what I look like or how I am perceived, and also how I may not be living the life I am called to, in the right way.) I care so much about what others think, and rarely even give any of my time to God, so how am I worthy enough to lead others in worshiping Him? These questions develop doubt in my ability to really serve in the Church. So I guess I will contemplate that moral dilemma, and smile all day about the fact that our head Preacher/Pastor/Minister (whatever Church word you want to use) told our Worship Leader that I needed to be on the worship team (it’s just really a confidence booster, because Wayne, the head Minister, is probably the most musically talented man I know) Now all I need is confidence in my heart for God, and not my voice… 

Moral of the story…

This day is great, and also very confusing. SELF DOUBT, MAN. 

‘Girls’ Season Two Finale

*SPOILERS Y’ALL*

First of all, was that not the best conclusion to the season even possibly imaginable? With all the intensity and rawness from the season, we need a little sappy montage-ish love dash that concluded with a tender kiss from two former lovers. I’m talking about the closing scene in which Adam runs to Hannah, shirtless, in a fit of passion… Holy crap, I am in love with these characters. 

Obviously Marnie and Charlie are my favorite new (or renewed) couple. These two have slowly switched roles, and I find it super charming that he has now become the wanted one. Considering how Marnie always wanted more from their previous relationship, he deserves the chance to show her what she is missing. PLUS, Charlie (Christopher Abbott) has also developed this overwhelmingly-dreamy-yet-humble thing that he’s sporting, and he has made me fall in love with him even more. I mean-- if men like this exsist, point me in the right direction, PLEASE.

Brava, ‘Girls!’

You have given all of us "depressed" and "feeling-lost" viewers the hope of love with a man that thinks you’re beautiful even though you have OCD, don’t work out, and cut your hair off in a fit of insanity (however completely unrealistic that is). All in a matter of a few wonderful minutes, this finale had me broken down to the point of tears only to resolve into genius and give me the most uplifting and love-drunk feeling all tHrOuGh my veins. Relationships going where they needed to and people falling apart just in time to be put back together again. 

 …except Ray.

Poor Ray.

On a Whim.

EYY ALL--
I have decided to reach past my humble ‘tumblr' demographic of 70-ish followers and create a blog. 

I don’t usually commit to things, so I’ll probably stop posting after a week, sdfjskdfb.

                           Figure 1: Me. (Before I got red hair. Updated pic coming soon, maybe) 

The blog’s name comes from my inherit love of alliteration and my frequent failure in being consistent. 

I really suck at doing anything I say I will.

Hmm, what else?
…I've wanted to be a musician since I knew what music was, I like to write, FILM IS COO, I have a knack for listening, I am terrible at making it to class, I am currently “undeclared” and I have a feeling I will be single and alone for the rest of my life, sooo…

I also read sometimes, but only really sappy and realistic fiction-y stuff. But, my favorite author is Fitzgerald because I became borderline obsessed with him my senior year of high school. I do get obsessed with things quite often. And more often than that, I give up on things or lose interest. 
Except when it comes to friends-- I like dose all de timez.

DISCLAIMER:

In this blog, I plan to write what I think about stuff.

I like to talk about myself in a way that makes me sound interesting and overly humble, and I also like to sound really hip, so if and when I mention pop-culutre and stuff, I do so in hopes that it will lead you to believe that I am, in actuality, “hip.”

I also have very bad grammar, so feel free to mind-edit whilst your scanning. 

Hope to hear from you, or whatever it is you do on this thing. 

Wait-- Blogging is hip, right?

Alrighty, then.
