How do you do? It's been awhile hasn't it.<br />
<br />
Sorry it's been so long, though I sure nobody really noticed my absence. Anyway, to the purpose of this post? yes, I think we shall!<br />
<br />
I just posted a video to my YouTube, which I have chosen to share with you, as you can probably tell by the video and post title, it is a drawing challenge. BACK STORY TIME! (I feel like Dr. Doofenshmirtz)<br />Well, it's not really much of a back story, I got a card game from Smiggle, it's awesome, I wish to play with you, and by play with you, I mean get you to draw me things, and then judge them, announcing who is superior. Also, I love all of you guys, Just saying.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
It's a well known fact that many musicians suffer from
various mental disorders, and many have taken their life because of it. But
It's also been said that having a mental illness, such as depression or bipolar
disorder has helped fuel their<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>creativity. Many artists claim that in some ways their illness has been
there source of inspiration, and many people have said that music, be <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>it writing, playing or listening to, is the
only thing that's kept them going. Music is also an effective and reliable
treatment for mental disorders and is widely used as a method of therapy. </div>

These days, mental illness is not uncommon,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>in fact, it's been said that all or most
people will <span style="mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin;">display
some signs of underlying mental illness, even if it's not bad enough to be
diagnosed as a mental illness, we all have a little bit of crazy deep down
inside us. So it would seem reasonable to think that many musicians do indeed
have some sort of disorder.<br />
While some may draw from their disorder, for others, it has meant the end.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It's not just recently that musicians have
struggled with mental disorders, in the 1800's a composer by the name of Robert
Schuman struggled with bipolar disorder, tried to throw himself of a bridge,
and later died in a mental asylum, from syphilis. Another well known musician
who ultimately met their end after battling mental illness, is Kurt Cobain, of
Nirvana. Kurt took his life on the 5th of April 1994, he died from a bullet to
the head after he had been battling depression and drug addiction.<br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin;">Music has a greater affect on the mind than you may think. It's
almost like a drug, in the way that it affects you brain. When you listen to
one of your favourite bands or artists, you brain releases the same chemical it
releases when you eat chocolate, and yes, orgasm. This chemical is called
dopamine. Dopamine plays a huge part in the part of the brain that rewards
achievements. It also <span style="background: white; color: black;">has many other

<span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin;">Music therapy helps in many ways, such as giving the
person something they can relate to, a safe way to vent, a creative outlet, and
opportunities to socialize in music group and build confidence. Also, as
mentioned before, increases dopamine levels, improving ones mood and making
them feel fulfilled and rewarded. Music also encourages freedom of expression
and creativity. Writing lyrics is one exercise they do in music therapy. This
is a way for the person to let out what they're feeling and turn it into
something creative that they can be proud of. Turning negative experiences into
something you can be proud of, and then, overcome. </span></div>

creating it or enjoying it. It's been said that in a way, musicians with mental
disorders are self medicating, expressing themselves and getting that feeling
of fulfilment and success. But at the same time, the disorder is what makes the
music, what inspires them. So they write music because they are stressed,
upset, etc, and doing that makes them feel good. Music has a huge effect on the
mind and can really make a difference in someone's life. <br />

And sex... Everywhere there is sex, and not enough is being done to educate about it, and young girls are going out, getting drunk and winding up pregnant, or even dead, and just because their friend said to or because the felt like they'd be left behind by their friends and society if they didn't.</span><span style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px; ">And things like smoking and drugs...

It's just a state of mind or the person over reacting. </span><span style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px; ">I know of people who have opened up to someone and told them they had depression and the person has just told them to get over it. </span><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">Intolerant animals! Not only this, but people are so stereotypical and racist. Again, it's a not understanding thing. If you were part of a sub culture, like goth or geek or something, people will come up with all these stereotypical theories, like all goths hate living and want to die, and every geek is a virgin who lives in his mums basement. And it's the same with race. All Irish are crazy drunks, everyone from Scotland wears kilts and plays bag pipes, all Italians like pizza, all Americans are either obese or anorexic. Some one's skin is darker that yours, so they must be inferior to you. OK, so some of this may be true for certain people, but not for entire races. You may meet a fat American, someone from Scotland who plays bagpipes, someone from Mexico who LOVES tacos. But not everyone from that race will be the same and there is no need to generalise. Where someone is from or the colour of there skin IS NOT means to judge someone by. And then there is sexism. Oh my god people, we're all human, and sure generally speaking, men may be stronger, and women better cooks, But I've had some pretty weak boy friends and met some men who are far better cooks than many women I have known. We are all human, and we all have different strengths. Women are not inferior to men because of their sex, if a certain woman was inferior to a certain man, it would not be because one has a penis and one doesn't. It would be because of other things completely unrelated to gender. The man might be really kind and generous and supports lots of different charities, and the woman might be some horrible mas murderer who kills Innocent ponies just because she can. Nothing to do with gender. And to all of you out there who think someone who is feminist thinks that all men are inferior and women are far better, please actually do some research into it. Feminism is a fight for gender equality. </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px; ">Humans are so not the superior species.

Sorry.<div><br /></div><div>Before I Begin, I would like to make a little announcement!</div><div><br /></div><div>I dropped out of school!!</div><div>Now some of you are probably thinking "Why did you do that! You'll never achieve anything if you drop out of high school, you'll never get a job" And blah blah blah. Well let me explain...</div><div><br /></div><div>As I had been away for about a month in term three with a badly sprained ankle and Giardia I had missed a lot of important work, especially seeing as we were coming up to end of year exams, and because my attendance hadn't exactly been up to scratch prior to that, I was very far behind. Teachers were putting a lot of stress on me to catch up and I couldn't really handle all of it. Not only was this making life difficult, but I had also been diagnosed with depression a few weeks earlier. Reasonably severe, I believe it was. Also, a month or so earlier I had been accepted into MAINZ (Music and Audio Institute of New Zealand) which was super exciting, so I wasn't going to be returning to school next year anyway. So one morning I woke up and explained to mum that I want to drop out. We agreed eventually that if I was going to, while I was home I was going to help out around the house and get as many more credits as I could by doing correspondence courses. So yeah, that's about it. It also means I can blog a lot more :D</div><div><br /></div><div>So onto the daily song...</div><div><br /></div><div>Today I have chosen for you... Saw Her Standing There by The Beatles </div><div><br /></div><div><iframe width="333" height="255" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/KqXrq4TqDHg" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><div><br /></div><div>I really like this song, which a lot of people find surprising. Is I 16 year old goth girl not allowed to like the Beatles or something? I first cam across this song in music, when the teacher split us up into groups and gave us each the same song, which was this one. I didn't like it at first, but it's grown on me now.</div><div><br /></div><div>I will hopefully have more up later, and I will eventually get you a weekly band.</div><div><br /></div><div>Thanks for reading guys</div><div>XoX Shannon <3</div>minipixihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10926799328352449438noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8355942471818303690.post-8709023436257105892011-09-09T11:53:00.000+12:002011-09-09T12:11:01.733+12:00Daily song!Hey hey hey!<div>Sorry I've not posted in a while, I've been terribly ill will a stupid virus thing *curses under breath* I'll try get a few extra things up today to make it up to you.</div><div><br /></div><div>So I've started writing this with no idea what my daily song is going to be, so I'm going to go onto my iTunes and press next a few times and see what comes up....</div><div><br /></div><div>-Later-</div><div><br /></div><div>Alright, we have a winner!

I might have to make them my weekly band so I can go on some more about how awesome they are!<br />We'll see...</div><div><br /></div><div>I actually discovered The Distillers playing Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 (how cool am I?) but I never listened to anymore of their stuff until aimlessly flicking through videos on youtube, and then talking to a friend about them, who then let me borrow their three albums.</div><div><br /></div><div>I think I will stop there before I start rambling on about nothing.</div><div><br /></div><div>I will have to awesome things up for you later today, including a weekly band.</div><div><br /></div><div>Thank you for reading</div><div>XoX Shannon</div>minipixihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10926799328352449438noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8355942471818303690.post-84975473214265878172011-09-01T12:37:00.001+12:002011-09-01T12:49:00.933+12:00Daily song! ( I think he might kill me for this D:)Hey guys!
<br />Today's song could possibly get me killed... But it's too amazing not to post up. <div>It's a cover of Sum 41's Fat Lip, by my boyfriend and his band. this is why I may be killed :P</div><div>You guys all have to comment and say how amazing it is, because he thinks it sucks, but they're all amazing :)</div><div>
<br /></div><div><iframe width="333" height="279" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/ZMKwVLAA6cw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><div>
<br /></div><div>So yep... There's three of them, and they're in a band....</div><div>
<br /></div><div>How about I introduce them properly? Ok? Yep... </div><div>
<br /></div><div>The super sexy one on guitar is my boyfriend, Suhail, the other two not-so-sexy ones don't really matter. </div><div>I'm only kidding, the guy singing is Cody, and the guy on drums is Peter.</div><div>
<br /></div><div>They're awesome right?</div><div>
<br /></div><div>Thanks for reading!</div><div>Don't forget to post all your wonderful and lovely comments about the sexiness of the band :P</div><div>XoX Shannon</div>minipixihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10926799328352449438noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8355942471818303690.post-83096769309210762622011-08-31T15:00:00.000+12:002011-08-31T15:08:00.004+12:00Daily song!heya! <div>So it's been awhile since I last posted a daily song. I've been busy (>.>). Well here's today's song!</div><div>
<br /></div><div>And that would be....The Lovecats by The Cure! </div><div>
<br /></div><div><iframe width="333" height="279" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/fcW35t2Gtyk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><div>
<br /></div><div>My current favourite. I'm obsessed with The Cure at the moment, they're amazing! They have a hot lead singer and awesome bass-lines, what more could you ask for?</div><div>
<br /></div><div>So I've decided, rather than doing the daily song and having a lot of background on the band, I'm going to just write a little bit of my opinion on the song, and will also post a weekly band, which will be a band I am really into at the time, and think you guys should check out, and that will have information on the band. I will also have other cool things for you guys to read, watch, listen to, and play with! So enjoy it! :)</div><div>

I will post my tweets and peoples replies at the end.</div><div><br /></div><div>So here goes :D</div><div><br /></div><div>After sleeping most of yesterday, I didn't get to sleep till late last night, but when I got there eventually. I had woken up earlyish, just as my dad came in to wake me up, he had knocked on the door like he always days before coming in, but when he tried to come in the door wouldn't open, so he told me to try it from my side... This didn't work, we spent ages trying to open it. We tried banging on it, forcing the handle down, even eftpos cards, but nothing worked, so my someone suggested unscrewing the handle, but the screws were on my side of the door. So dad went outside and knocked on my window, first he knocked on the one near my bunks, I pulled the curtain back and he told me to unlock it, and being the dark-dwelling goth girl that I am, I had never actually opened my curtains, so I'd never seen the windows, therefore I had no idea how to open them, so dad pointed to a latch in about the middle of the window, I went to reach up, but because my beds were bunks, and the fact that I don't have double jointed elbows, I couldn't reach, so dad went round to the other window. I opened one window and he passed in his tools, I wasn't going to attempt to fix it, I'd just break it more. So dad tried to pull himself up, but the window was too thin and there was a bar in the way, this was preventing the window from opening too far. I opened the second window so there was more room, but dad still couldn't get in. He disappeared for around a minute then came back with a big blue chilly bin and placed it in front of the window. He then stood on it and tried to pull himself up, but the bars with still in the way, so he asked me to pass him his tools, and he tried to dismantle my window. Unfortunately this could not be done, and dad decided that he needed something more to stand on, he told this to my brother and grandparents who went round the back of the house and came back with a milk crate, with the stood up on top of the chilly bin. Granda then held the them both steady as dad tried to climb in, he got stuck twice before making his way in. Once he had gotten in he turned to me and said "Now, you don't need to do anything, like need to pee, do you?" I nodded. I decided to climb out the window, if I didn't I might have popped, this, would not be good. I stood on my little bed side table thing and looked down at the very unsteady looking milk crate and chilly bin, I decided it would be safer to jump. So I slowly climbed out, I turned my self around and tried to get a steady footing so I could climb down the wall, but because it had been wet, and I had bare feet, this was practically impossible, so I ended up clumsily sliding down the wall in the least elegant way possible... Slightly embarrassing, just hope the neighbors didn't see it. I banged my knees a few times, bent my toe the wrong way, smacked my elbow, and hurt my wrist, but other than that, I made it down ok... >.> I then walked through the house and too the bathroom while everyone tried to fix my door. I came back to find that they had removed the door knob, but the door still refused to budge, we tried to push it open, and fiddled with the bits inside the lock, but nothing worked, so we tried to take the pins out, this is when I ditched for a bit and watched videos on youtube with my brother. I want back to see everyone crowding around the door, each trying to pry it open. Turns out The door frame was too tight and the door would not move. I then went away again and stared aimlessly into the fridge to try and find something to eat... There was nothing to my liking though. I then walked back up the hall to see my dad with the door in his arms, he began to push it back into place and put the pins back, I walked back down to the lounge and watched more videos with Owen. Dad then came down and told me that the door was back on but I had no knob. I went up to my room to get changed. I looked worriedly through the gapping hole in my door. I picked up a plastic bag off the floor and shoved it through the hole and got dressed.</div><div><br /></div><div>Well, yeah, that's what happened, here are the tweets I posted :D</div><div><br /></div><div><div class="tweet-row" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: block; position: relative; "><span class="tweet-user-name" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; color: rgb(68, 68, 68); font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, 'Liberation Sans', FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 15px; "><a class="tweet-screen-name user-profile-link" id="103215867" href="http://twitter.com/#!/minipixi" title="Shannon Russell" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; color: rgb(79, 35, 163) !important; text-decoration: none; cursor: pointer; font-weight: bold; ">minipixi</a> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" ><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 19px;">I'm currently locked in my room.

Odd. Anyway, moving on! I felt the need to post this song after I went to a concert where the band did a terrible cover of it (sound harsh doesn't it?) other than that, the band was quite good.<br /><br />So the song today is The Final Episode (Let's Change The Channel) by Asking Alexandria. I may have already posted this song, or something else from them, and apologize if I have, but I<span style="font-style: italic;"> really</span> like this song, and the video is really awesome too, couldn't tell you why though, I just like it.<br /><br />Anyway, here's the video, will have some facts bellow if you wish to read them :)<br /><br /><iframe title="YouTube video player" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/bJroU3jwatA" allowfullscreen="" width="333" frameborder="0" height="217"></iframe><br /><br />So I might try something different today, I will still post general information about the band, but I'm going to try include some weird and random facts you may not know about them. This should be fun! :D Here goes nothing...<br /><br />Asking Alexandria are a metalcore band from England, they were formed in 2008. The band is currently made up of Danny Worsnop on vocals and keyboard ( I have to put a picture in, because he's too darn hot!)<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhB0XBecRqSkZ8fEjWEaNhY8TCu0j7JPcctNjeA6VY5Nes3p1h_w30NoLHhOipoUssMLRl2P-g9mgsmlfZxrmvt2Luks-yoyOPRt2UlWphKDbP30qjyCM3-zfkqrSBY-BGl3rO2yfSHRSE/s1600/hom+nom+nom.jpeg"><img style="display: block;

I did have things I wanted to post, but then my laptop died, and then I was busy and blah blah blah various other excuses :D.<br /><br />So today's song is from a very... Interesting band, called Betty Blowtorch (awesome name right?)<br /><br />So this song is called 'I Wish You'd Die' Which is a very lovely song title if you ask me. That was sarcasm by the way. It was one of the more suitable of their songs to put up... The others a kind of... Filthy.<br /><br />So here's the video ( the audio is a bit funny at the start, but it evens out later on) While you are listening, you can read some information on them.<br /><br /><iframe title="YouTube video player" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/O_df6037m6A" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="280" width="333"></iframe><br /><br />Betty Blowtorch was formed in 1998 in Southern California. They were an all girl hard rock band. Members of the band came and left, but the ending of the group was marked by The lead singer and bassists death. In December 2001 Bianca Halstead was driving through New Orleans, when she crashed, and tragically died. *tear*<br /><br />If you would like to read more here's the link to the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betty_Blowtorch">wikipedia</a> page<br /><br />Well, thank you for reading.<br />I hope to have more posts up later.<br />Love you all :)<br />Shannon XoXminipixihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10926799328352449438noreply@blogger.com0
