Clothing-- Sending secret messages?

Have you ever noticed secret messages in your clothing?

If not, its maybe time to look.

I've been wearing jeans a lot lately and have never really cared about what they looked like on the inside.

If I really payed attention, I would have noticed these secret messages a long time ago.

A couple months ago I went down to the states to go shopping.

I went to Lucky Brand Jeans, which has some great looking and great fitting jeans and bought 2 pairs.

When you try jeans on at the store, all you care about is what they look like on your body, but after wearing them for a long time, you should notice what they have inside them.

These are the items of clothing that I've found "secret messages" in so far:

1. Lucky Brand Jeans- On the zipper as you zip up your jeans it says "LUCKY YOU."

2. My other jeans- On the wash label at the bottom it says "GOD LOVES YOU"

I'll be on the look out for more. Leave me a comment with ones that you've found.

Planet Premiers-- Like them or not?

Planet premiers, do you like them or not?

If you don't know what a planet premier is, it's when a radio station or some other type of media plays all the songs from an album that hasn't been released yet.

Some may call it leaking an album, but the station has permission from the record label and artist.

So what is the reason for having a planet premier? I honestly don't know why.

When I pre-order an album I want to hear the music for the first time right when I get it.

It's supposed to be a surprise, that's why you pre-order the album.

To play every single song in its entirety on the radio defeats the purpose of buying the album.

What are your thoughts on this? Leave a comment and let me know.

The You to the Tube


Every now and then I come across a funny or interesting video on YouTube.

Most of the time I hear about them from my younger brother, on twitter, or randomly on websites.

Now one thing I like to watch and follow on Youtube are Vlogs such as Shay Carl and the Shaytards, KassemG, iJustine, and KevJumba.

I've never Vlogged before, but they make it seem like a lot of fun, and I'm thinking about trying it out sometime.

Anyways, my brother this week has been talking about this video where a goat yells like a man.

I thought to myself, "how can a goat yell like a man?" and I didn't think it would be funny at all.

Boy, was I wrong.

I ended up watching it for the first time last night thinking it was going to be stupid like some of the other things he's shown me, but all I could do is cry, roll on the floor, and laugh.

I've watched it about 8 times in the past 2 days and I have to say it's my favorite video on YouTube right now, but honestly this is something everyone has to see.

Leave me a comment and let me know what you thought of this video.

TOMS Shoes-- One for One


About a month ago, I came across these really great shoes.

They were cute, colorful, comfy, and they had arch support which I really needed.

When I went into the store I was told that if I purchased a pair of these shoes, a child or person without a pair in a 3rd world country would get a pair as well.

I thought to myself, "That is such a great idea, buying something and giving something at the same time, who wouldn't want to support this cause?"

I'm a person who donates to charity frequently, and I love to help others in need.

I think everyone should buy a pair of TOMS shoes and wear them proudly, knowing that they're helping children, teenagers, and families who don't have any.

Think about going barefoot around your city. What lurks on the sidewalk and the roads, what you wouldn't want your skin to touch.

Now imagine being in the third world country where the ground, and roads are ten times as bad as what we have outside.

Now stop, and think.

Buy a pair of TOMS today to help out a great cause.
