My hobby is collecting dust

Hey there all you cowgirls and cowboys!

I've got a recipe for you, if you can even call it that. Alright, so I'm a little bias. Just as a general rule, I don't use store bought cookie dough. I'm a bit of a snob when it comes to shortcuts that take the "cook" out of cooking. But seriously, at what point do you direct your compliments at Pillsbury instead of the woman who put the cake in front of you? Or do you just go on pretending that it still took significant effort to make? "Thanks m'am, that was delicious... you sure did a good job of putting that in the oven."

Reguardless, I'm giving you this recipe because Logan has really taken to it. He's kept us in good supply of the treats, which are quick and easy to make. They consist of some kind of chocolate candy in the center of a ball of cookie dough, cooked in a muffin pan like little tarts. They really are quite cute, and they taste just as you'd expect cookie dough and candy to. The fun part comes in experimenting with which type of candies to put in which cookies. We've had some weird combinations (mint chocolate candy in a peanut butter dough) and some quite yummy ones too (fun size snickers in sugar cookie dough). Have fun trying it out. And be sure to let me know of any great flavors you discover!

Frogs and toads,

I just thought you should know that a miraculous, wonderful thing just occurred. It's called- I just found a box full of Shamwow brand towels in my basement. I know. How did this amazing event unfold, you may ask? It happened a little something like this:

"Mom, don't we still have that Shamwow that you bought as a joke that one time?"

"Yeah, we have a whole box in the basement."

So... not as exciting as you expected, was it? But I have the Shamwowie-wow-wows now at my full disposal. Which makes up for the lack of a theatrical discover of the towels. The internet wonder I have for you today is a video that mocks the infamous Shamwow commercial. I know what you're thinking, "but Sessygirl, I've seen many such parodies in my time. What else is there?" But this one is a little different. It's actually an ad for paper towels. Who knew the basic household item had so many uses? Definitley going to force a smile out of you.

How was tomorrow? I think you know what I mean.

Beach boys and bikini babes,

I would just like to start this off by saying... RYAN GOSLING IS A MORMON?!?!?! This is quite the shocker. I consider myself well acquainted with all the big name LDS celebrities and how active they are in the church. So you can imagine my surprise when this little tidbit of news found itself in front of my face. All I can say is that I wish someone would have told me this before I saw The Notebook. That knowledge would have made me love it that much more.

But that has zero to do with what I'm giving to you today, which is a big, neon, flashing arrow sign. It's pointed towards the dELiA's online store, where there just so happens to be a huge clearance sale going on. So if you're doing some back-to-school shopping, or just want to spoil yourself a little, do so frugally by checking out this website. They've got some super cute stuff up to 80% off. And not just leftover summer merchandise either! Make sure to take a look at their sweaters and boots, which are great for romping around in the fall. You can thank me later.

I am the kid next door's imaginary friend

Hey there, cats and dogs. Here's what's up: men who are lacking, stop complaining. All of you guys out there who weren't lucky enough to grow up in Australia or England and therefore don't have a hott foreign accent, get over it. If I hear another male complain about how unfair it is that an accent boosts the attractiveness factor for the ladies, I'll pull all my eyelashes out. True, girls will fall over a Scottish lad far more easily than your average American boy. But doesn't this go both ways? Guys, don't even try to tell me that you're not more likely to get the hotts for a foreign girl then for the girl next door. What is it about hailing from another country that we find so attractive? Are we, as people, just so bored of encountering the same run-of-the-mill characters that meeting someone from a different country excites us? Sherlock, I believe we just solved a mystery.

This video is an old one, but every once in a while when I need some foreign boy in my life, I go re-watch it. Declan Galbraith, who is from Scottish and Irish descent, shows off his vocal talents in this sweet song. The kid's eighteen now, although he's probably no older than fourteen here. As he's gotten older, he's definitley gotten hotter, and yes, the foreign appeal has helped that. Too bad his voice hasn't improved with his attractiveness. Sigh.

Clever things to say after inhaling from a helium balloon

Readers, I have a confession to make.

You may want to prepare yourself. Yes, it's that bad. I've tried my hardest to provide you with the best internet tidbits. My blog has been here on rainy days, days when your date has stood you up, and days when your friends have gone to camp and left you home with no social life. Yes, I've tried to be there for you. And that's why, in my time of need, I'm asking you to be here for me. The truth is... I'm struggling with an addiction problem. Oh no, not a typical addiction situation. I'm still just as straight-edge Mormon as it gets.

It all started when I innocently visited the Converse site in search of some stylish new sneaks. I clicked around a little, y'know. And I happened to discover the design-your-own Converse shoes feature they have. To put it simply, it was love at first sight. Problem is, I can't seem to pull myself away. All my free time goes into this relationship now. I've designed at least 15 different pairs of sneakers, all featuring different patterns and color schemes. I haven't ordered myself any yet, mainly because I can't seem to pick between all of my masterpieces. Converse does a great job of making the design process easy and fun. And you can rotate your sneaks to view them from all angles, just as if you were picking them up off a store shelf. So try it out, have fun... but don't get too carried away. Trust me, it can happen.

What's up, all you dreamers and schemers?

Is anyone else not a 'Fred' fan? You all know who I'm talking about. Annoying youtuber who has achieved some kind of miraculous fame through giving himself a chipmunk voice. His whole shtick is that he's a six year old with ADHD and an alcoholic mom. Except in reality, he's still just a feminine 15 year old with acne and Zac Efron hair. Ewww. Trust me, the execution is just as bad as the whole idea is. So why is he the #1 most subscribed vlogger of all time? Does this make sense to anyone? I mean, I guess he's attractive if you're into that whole thing. Personally though, I just don't understand it. I'm guessing the majority of his 1,347,805 subscribers are made up of a certain category of the pre-teen population. You know, the ones who wear Hannah Montana wigs to the grocery store and dream of being just like Selena Gomez. Not that I have anything against those people...

But I think I've gotten sidetracked. Livelavalive's Mitchell Davis pokes a little fun at the whole idea of Fred by undergoing surgery that makes his voice the opposite of Fred's high pitched squeaks. A funny idea carried out well. Kudos Livelavalive! Click on the title to link to the video.

I feel bad for people with peanut allergies. They can't have peanuts.

Ladies and gentlemen,
You've all met Natalie Tran of CommunityChannel, right? Well if not, let me just quickly introduce you. Nat, these are my readers. They don't bite... well, at least since I started blogging again. Readers, this is the funny, brilliant, quick, Asian youtube star Natalie. Or as her youtube subscribers know her, CommunityChannel. In this vid, Nat delivers big laughs by hosting a get together for the neglected keystrokes on the keyboard. And if this doesn't make you chuckle, think about how much time she spent painting all of the keystroke boxes in the video.

I'm back. I'm black. Just kidding, I'm extremely white.

Hey lovers and fighters!
It's been a long time, hasn't it? Have all y'all missed me as much as I've missed you? Of course you have. Silly question. But the point is that I'm blogging again. You can expect one post a day from me, at least for the time being. And you may have noticed that TWSS has a brand new look. However, your favorite internet posts and funnies are still here, same as before. Don't forget to check out the poll, which is on the right of your screen, just as you're used to. And of course, I'm still here! So really, not much has changed.

I thought I'd start you all off with a group that's been in my head ever since Lizzie M. introduced us via youtube. You probably haven't heard of Irish band The Script. But with a sound that's a perfect balance of rock and pop, this trio will definitely leave an impression on you. This song is from their self-titled platinum selling album. In The Man Who Can't Be Moved, sweet lyrics and an attractive lead singer will make you a Script addict. Click on the title for the link to the music video.

Tossing rainbows into buckets

Here we have some breaking news from The Onion regarding Disney Channel child stars. Yes, reportedly, Disney claims its latest batch of child stars is so lifelike, you'll barely be able to tell they have no souls. This short news report includes an interview with a man who genetically creates the stars from scratch, giving them one of five personalities and choosing from a variety of skin and hair colors. Other than that, he says they're pretty much all the same. Thanks to Maddie W. for this hilarious video. My favorite part: "Zac Efron's skin will soon begin to deteriorate".

My train of thought has derailed

Many thanks to Justine M. for introducing me to. This guy, Nick Pitera, has racked in millions of views on his videos because of his great voice and impressive range. And by impressive range, I mean a strong falsetto that makes him able to imitate famous women singers. In this vid, Nick shows off his talent in belting A Whole New World from the Disney movie Aladdin. Yes, he sings both Aladdin and Jasmine's parts. Sure he hits a few flat notes here and there, but I'm cutting him slack, because I can't harmonize with myself either. Unless you're a big fan of the song, I'd skip forward to the 51 second mark. Feel free to check out his other stuff too.

Sound effects sold separately

The reason that Natalie from communitychannel gets so many views, is because she talks about things that people relate to. Take this video, for example. From her very first words, I was getting a tad bit sketched out because I was thinking, this sounds just like me. Honestly, when she started talking about how she loves food to the point of dreaming, crying, and writing poetry about it, I had to pause it and search my house down for little video cameras that had may have been planted and sending video to Australia. I didn't find any, but I did get a good laugh out of this video, and how true it is. Watch it yourself to see if this applies to you too. Oh, and my apologies for not posting lately. With this next week off, I should be able to jump on that train again. So for now, let's just forget that last week ever happened. Then I won't have to change the explanation of by blog that says, "Updated daily". Thanks a bunch for keeping this between us.

How was tomorrow?

You may recognize Kate Micucci from assorted random roles as minor characters on TV shows. Besides being an actress, she's also a singer, and comedian. Apparently. But I suppose I shouldn't shoot her down so quickly. This video that she acts in is actually pretty cute. Kate plays a ukulele and sings a song to a nearby deer to warn him about the approaching hunter. Plus the deer is Asian, which makes the whole thing that much better. That's right, folks. An Asian deer. Don't believe it? Watch for yourself.

You're that crazy shark, aren't you? I'm just a dolphin, maam.

I recently saw a video about a young man who landed a (temporary) job from asking Obama a question on his visit to Fort Myers, Florida. The man thanked God verbally many times for the opportunity to see and speak to Obama. His actual question was about what benefits would go to low-wage workers such as himself. Obama then explained how tax cuts would help people like him, a McDonalds worker who'd been earning under $8 an hour for the past four years. The man's name is Julio Osegueda, and he is attending college with hopes to become a disk jockey or a broadcaster. He was given a position as the announcer for the Fort Myers Miracle baseball team's radio broadcast for its home opener April 10. Scroll down to the video to watch, and skim the article surrounding it for more info.

Beef Brisket Bingo

If you ever decide that you want to spend a chunk of time playing useless internet games, don't feel alone. I mean, I'm not with you, because I have about 20 million other things I'd rather do.

There's shooting, puzzles, sports, arcade, and action games. And with over 3000 ones available, something will strike your fancy.

Brave, brave Sir Robin!

I know that you have all wanted to be a part of my inside life. So I've decided to give you a little taste of what it's like to be me. Step one: google sessygirl style. In this link, you get google results with a cool Sessy Search page. What could be better? But if you eventually decide that you want to mix it up a little, there's an option for that too. Right next to the Google Search button is one that says Change Logo Text. But I'm sure you won't have to worry about that, seeing as searching this way is pretty much the awesomest thing ever.

More work for me. More music links for you. But I tried to mix it up for you a little bit. So this one's a little different vibe than the last. Still under the rock category, but a little more modern and not as well known. But equally good, if you want my opinion. Which you do if you came here in the first place. Enjoy.

Great mind thinks alike

This post is too small because my math project's too big. It's as simple as that. The link is what I'm listening to while working on the project. Right now it's classic rock. So please enjoy, and forgive me for shorting you guys today. Actually, keep the anger, and funnel it towards my math teacher. "You're not done with the test? It's taking you as long to do that part as it took some people to do the whole thing." Oh, okay buddy. Thanks for that. What exactly is that supposed to solve? Nothing. Wow, we know we're in trouble when I start complaining to my readers. Sorry guys. Watch the video already.

Apple pays Chuck Norris $.99 everytime he listens to a song

The weekend is over, and the oppression of Mondays is upon us yet again. Which means we are done with the fun of the Super Bowl... or are we? You may have missed a few of the commercials yesterday. Or maybe the whole game. Which ever you are, you can now get access to the best part of Super Bowl season on your home/work/bunny's computer. Oh yes, I have found for you all of the commercials for your casual viewing pleasure. They are very handy motivators for accomplishing work. For example, you can write an English essay, and watch one in between every paragraph. Or, you could practice acrobatic circus moves, and stop to view one after every successful flip. You could even invent something overpriced and pointless. Just make sure to pause and giggle at a commercial every once in a while. So whatever you're up to, make sure to squeeze in some time for a few of these.

Dang! That's the 10th Commandment I've broken today

Who doesn't love a good, funny, creative, Superbowl commercial? For those of you too busy to commit time to the game, or who don't want to waste a night like that, I've made it easy. Every once in a while, visit NFL.com for live coverage. That way, you can be in the loop AND productive with everything else. Everyone wins! Make sure to vote on my new poll (on the top right) as soon as it's over. And when your work's done too.
