In response to a friend's blog about why some people really don't like Justin Bieber...well, I suppose he's (the blogger) right in noting that some people just have different tastes. Maybe I'm just a little jealous because I'm a singer/songwriter as well, and I just don't think Justin Bieber is all that great. Sure his voice is "great" but it
is really high. In response to the blogger's post: Justin Timberlake's music is similar, but I think Timberlake is advertising something a little different than Bieber. Buber, in my opinion, is just a "cute" wittle teenager with long hipster hair that wants as many young girls to scream over him as he can. I know, I know, Bieber has a single mother and without this revealed talent by Usher, they'd probably be struggling to make the minimum. Didn't the Jonas Brothers sell a very similar image to that of Bieber?
I think so. The JB and Bieber's music, while I guess it's catchy and shows signs hard working individuals, has little substance as compared to many other artists. Whatever, that was enough of Bieber because I'm embarrassed that his image gets this much out of me.
Finals are litterally around the corner. Term papers, finals, book reviews, all that shit should be dominating my schedule. But whatever.
The summer should be good. Spain should be even better. My future looks even better than that.
At 19, almost 20, I've sincerely come to terms with the fact that I won't have enough time to do all the things I want/need to do in my life and that's okay.
Never stop questioning.
Book Review:
Extremely Loud and Incredibly CloseYou, whoever you are, must read this book. It might change you a lot or not at all, but it's well worth the time. It's a highly intelligent work with dynamics that have the ability to reshape the way you perceive the people and places around you.
Movie Review:
Food, Inc.Watch this.
And then watch PETA videos. Contrary to popular belief, these things are not radical, they're reality.
Music Review:
PlastikmanMinimalist techno is my new "love". Its smooth deep vibes transform me and I'd like to just be intoxicated and go on a journey.
Hush child, look closer.

Not criticizing your opinion, I promise. Buuuuuuut, give Bieber's album a listen. Heck, I'll let you borrow my copy. It's seriously a good album and different than those of most Disney teeny bopper artists like the Jonas Brothers. And yes, Bieber's voice is high. But what's wrong with that? It's not like he chose his vocal range. I think it's awesome that he is different than most artists. I realize that we will probably have to agree to disagree, but I really think that if you listen to his album with an open mind you will be surprised how much you like!
P.S. SEMESTER'S ALMOST OVER!!! It was great to meet you this semester and I hope you have an awesome summer! Keep in touch Gabe!
Hey Gabe! I really like your blog (clever title) and am super going to look into "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close." Can you tell me more of what it's about?
