We Are Superheroes

Have you ever felt different than anyone else you know? Out of the ordinary? In a sense unreal? Have you ever wondered if your life had unknown potential? Have you ever thought that just maybe... you are a superhero? Well if you haven't, you should just pretend like you have, and enjoy the following photos and movie preview that (if you make good life choices) you are about to see. 

Sidenote: sorry for the lack of postings this last week. We have been working on a lot of great ideas and things, so keep your eyes open because the entertainment is going to start coming like crazy.

Love,

Natalie and Chael

Space Jam Music

There has been a new trend in the world of music, that not many people have caught onto. Thankfully nothing gets past us, and we are here to share with you our discovery. The new cool thing to do is sing songs about outer space, aliens, galaxies, and things of that sort. We think the best thing to do, knowing this information, is to gather a large group of people together, dress up "out of this world" and dance like crazy to all of this space music. We will call it a "Space Jam" (it's brilliant we know). To get you all excited for this party from another dimension, we decided to leak you the beginnings of our music selection. Just pretend you are in a rocketship when listening to it.

Bathroom Spaceship

Hello, this is us! Natalie just finished her final and the last question was about a movie called Mirrors (Chael hates this movie. Natalie hasn't decided her feelings)! The question sucked:

"Explain the difference between the mental states and mental dispositions. Explain Wollheim’s view of emotion as a disposition. How is this view exemplified in the film Mirrors?"

......Yeah, we don't know the answer either... so we did this instead:

Doppelgänger?

Remember on Facebook when it was "Doppelgänger Week"? It was when you posted a celebrity look-a-like as your profile picture. Well we missed out, and decided to take it a step further (like we do with most things) and recreated the celebrity's photos. Please laugh as hard as we did when you look at these.... the definitely did not take us over 3 hours to make...... uhhhh.... we were bored?

Top 10 Things in Natalie's Room

You already know all you need to know about Chael (see her room here). We all know you judged her, now it's your turn to judge Natalie just the same. The list is in no particular order. For starters, here is a picture of her room:

Happy St Patrick's Day!

I bet you didn't know this, but on St Patrick's Day we actually turn into little leprechauns. It is pretty flippin' cool, we pig out on Lucky Charms, and find pots of gold. You probably think we are lying to you, but really we are not. Here is our proof:

all the things you could do INSTEAD of studying

Finals: the best part of the college experience. Riiiiiight. Well the good news is that we are all in the same boat. We know there are some really studious people out there who finished all their final papers two weeks ago, and are already completely prepared for all their exams. You can stop reading now. We have no idea how you do what you do, but more power to you. You are the people who will one day run our country. Now, for the majority of college students (ourselves included) how much do you love finding new ways to procrastinate!? WE DO!!! Since we are all in this together, we find it extremely appropriate to share with you some of our ideas. (Side note: if you decided not to go to college and you are a successful individual, you made the right life choice) Without further adieu, here are all the things you could do INSTEAD of studying: First we would like to start off with the number one option:
- Take hundreds of unnecessary pictures of yourself with your webcam.

THE LIST.

A lot of this might not make any sense to you at all, but that is kind of the point. You will just have to keep checking back as we cross everything off. We just wanted you to know how much you have to look forward to!

PLEASE NOTE that this list grows everyday and we will be adding to it constantly... we also really enjoy suggestions :) and homies (you need to realize that every time you see the word 'homies' on this blog is intended to be read in the voice of Dr. Evil, not a gangster) who are down to participate.

Top 10 Things in Chael's Room

We decided that we want you to know a little bit about us. So we thought, what would be a better way to get to know someone than by judging them off of the items in their bedroom. Lets face it, the bedroom is a personal place. In hopes that you might understand our individual personalities a bit better we will each (starting with Chael) share with you what we believe to be the top ten things that can be found in our rooms. We just want to present the items with small explanations, and we encourage you to judge us however you'd like. These are in no order whatsoever. Here is a photograph of Chael's room in general:

Ninjas

Have you ever felt the ultimate desire to dress up like ninjas and run around in public? We really hope you have experienced the joy of acting upon that desire. We sure did. One day we decided that it would be just the greatest idea to throw on ninja suits and go on a ninja quest at Bellevue Square. So we acted in the way we always do when we have these brilliant ideas. We went for it. We thought it was the best idea in the world.... and it was... but the Bellevue Mall Cops apparently had a different opinion. We did not anticipate the fact that dressing as a ninja in public would cause a large amount of attention and inspire stupid store managers (12 actually) to call in complaints. Long story short: we got kicked out. Basically what we are trying to say here is that Bellevue Square Mall discriminates against the people of the Ninja Tradition. We just want to make our complaint public, and warn any other ninjas against visiting this shopping center. However, if you are in the Bellevue Square area, and looking for a place to go, the Quality Food Center (QFC) across the street is extremely welcoming. Our adventure ended with ninja scootering a.k.a. "ninja-scooting" through downtown Kirkland and singing along in the car to one of our favorite vocal artists in a parking lot. Enjoy the small bit of evidence we have. If you do anything we just beg you to please make sure it is the 7 seconds of this video from 1:45-1:52. Listen carefully.

CoonTails!

Remember how annoying all those Scene Girlz on MySpace were? Remember MySpace? No? Yea that's okay neither do we. Anyways, remember those stupid stripes that they always put in their hair? They called them "CoonTails" and now the Scene is dead, and so are the CoonTails. So of course we had to get some! They are absolutely perfect in every single way. Don't you think?

Love,
Natalie and Chael

We photoshop a lot of things... this is not one of them.

We Make Shoes

You know when you are window shopping online and you see a pair of shoes that you just absolutely need to have? You know when you see how much those shoes cost and you poop your pants? Well that happened to us (minus the pant poopage). So instead of getting butthurt about the fact that we are poor college students, we decided to get creative. Our creativity included a trip to Ladies Boss Wear and a local craft store, and approximately 2 hours of blood sweat and tears, and resulted in the fiercest pair of platform pumps that your eyes will ever feast upon. Behold:

With Arms Wide Open?

One day (March 5th to be exact) Chael was at our friend Kate's house (see kate here) and while they were waiting for Natalie to come over (which took FOREVER) they of course had the ingenious idea to create the video you are hopefully about to spend the next 3 minutes and 42 seconds of your life watching. One word to describe it would be magical.

Love, 

Chael and Natalie

The Fort

Remember when you were a kid and you used to spend your time building forts and fun stuff like that? Well we decided to spend our time like that. Probably the best decision we have ever made. We would go as far as to say that we made the sickest fort ever in the history of forts. We even had a party in our fort...it was a FaceBook official event. The party included a lot of Gatorade, popcorn, Austin Powers (FTW) and May-Kate and Ashley Olsen movies. In the following photos please note the Austin Powers (FTW) VHS tapes, popcorn, touch lights, and stuffed animals. Not to mention christmas lights, a ceiling light, body pillows, and quilts for carpet.

Simba's Climb... Pure Inspiration

Sometimes when Chael felt discouraged she would simultaneously play this scene from The Lion King and listen to The Climb by Miley Cyrus. This was just too much work. Being the genuinely fantastic human being Natalie is, she offered to make and official video, allowing Chael to easily access the same great inspiration. You just can't ignore how fantastically the music syncs up with the video. Miley Cyrus actually wrote this for for this specific purpose. We just want to share this with you because at some point in our lives we all find ourselves faced with a climb.

Love,

Natalie and Chael

Murder on Elm Street

Well it wasn't on Elm street... It was actually in Chael's kitchen, but we're not trying to be technical here. Our good friend Kate unfortunately pissed off Chael at the wrong time. This event resulted in her untimely death. There was blood everywhere. See for yourself...

Just an Elf in a Forest

Well it was a fairly decent Tuesday. We had about 25 extra minutes to do anything in the world. We contemplated our options and grappled with the idea of dressing Chael in a lyrical dance dress and taking elven pictures in the neighborhood forest. We decided that out of all the things we could do, that would bring our hearts the greatest delight. So we went for it. We just really hope you enjoy the product as much as we do.

Love,
Natalie and Chael

Dave's Tour of Seattle

[Quick note: Before we go on any more adventures, we find that it is necessary to catch you up on the last few we've had.]

So our friend Dave lived with us (well not literally with us, but in our general area) here in Washington for approximately 5 months. His flight home to Delaware was scheduled to leave in two short days when we realized that he had never experienced the city of Seattle. WTF???! Out of the kindness of our hearts we took the liberty of showing him around in hopes that he would fall so deeply in love with what he had been missing, that as soon as he landed in Delaware, he would turn right back around and purchase a return ticket to the Emerald City. (Unfortunately that's not what happened... but we tried) The following is our proof.

Adventures in QFC

     We initially started our journey shooting photographs at Discovery Park in Seattle, Washington. Unfortunately, the sun gave up on us and we were forced indoors to a local Quality Foods Center. You'd think there wouldn't be many options for photography at this location, but thankfully, for your viewing pleasure, we found 502. We have decided to share with you the top 18.

Love,
Natalie and Chael

Swipin' the V-Card

Dear Person,

So we've never blogged before, but we're going to give this a try. You should probably tell everyone you know about it because things are about to get real.

Love,

Natalie and Chael
