For those of you who don't know... (:

Well hey there interwebers. ;) The name's Zoe. I've decided to write a blog, out of curiousity towards why so many people have them, and to learn about a new music genre. To be completely honest, I barely know anything about the indietronica genre, but I'm going to attempt to learn as much as possible about it as I continue this blog...
So, thanks to the love of my life, Wikipedia, I'm gonna tell you some awesome sauce information about this genre. Indietronica is a genre that originally developed in Germany in the late 90s. It's a mix between indie, electronica, rock, and pop. Some commonly used insturments in the indietronica genre are electronic keyboards, synths, samplers, and drum machines, (and possibly rain sticks?)
Haha anyways, I've been listening to some indie electronic music lately, and I'd just like to say, the following bands are freaking AWESOME, and I suggest that you youtube them whenever you get a chance:
- The Limousines
- Electric President
- The Postal Service
- MGMT
- Owl City
- Unicorn Kid
- Passion Pit
- Teenager
- The Faint
AAAAAND
- I Heart Sharks

But yeah, just check those out if you're interested. As trippy as they might seem, these bands really start to grow on you...
In other news, I almost bought a shark today. Just felt like sharing, because it was flipping amazing, but the guy said that I couldn't because I don't own a fish tank that's 50 inches long...Bummer, eh? But I got this cute little misfit-like fish instead, and it's currently living in a tupperwear container in my closet because I'm not actually allowed to have a pet fish. And my best friend, Tiffany, bought three goldfish today, which are still lying in a plastic bag on the floor of my room, as they have been since noon. I have a feeling that I'll be an amazing parent someday. :) Kidding, please pray for my children.
But before that, we went out for sushi, to this awesome place in town that serves bubble tea. We ate mass amounts of sushi, until I realized that I'm a vegetarian, and it all contained fish. So we made an escape and rushed over to the beloved Mac's, and purchased like 4 packets of maltesers, a kit kat, and two banana popsicles, (I'm not actually a fatass; I just had to pay with debit and I'd feel guilty buying a dollar worth of stuff...)
But yeah, since I'm already way off topic, I think I'm going to talk to you about the sickest teachers of LIFE. I'm not going to name names (for security reasons...) but I'll call one of them the ThrashStache, one of them Bagel, and the other, AwesomeStudentTeacher. :) Haha okay, well, ThrashStache is my awesome English teacher who is incredibly flamboyent (if you catch my very obvious drift) and just makes life, and AwesomeStudentTeacher is this awesome student teacher that we had in English for the past 3 weeks or so. AwesomeStudentTeacher is also incredibly flamboyent (to the point of saying "oh, it's just a game, it's for 'funzies'") They tend to flirt a bit, and talk about clothing and such during class, and they like Justin Bieber... Oh, how I miss them both...
And Bagel is my math teacher. ENRICHED math...yeah that's right, I'm a white person in enriched. (not that I'm at all passing, but still, I try.) And he's a really sick dude even though he talks about strip joints and stuff.
Anywho, I think I'm done for today. I know that I got reaally off topic, and I apologize perfusely, but I just find my life to be incredibly sick sometimes, and when it is, I just have to share it with you interwebbers. :)
Sleep tight, y'all. :)
