It's time for another round of "Jenae's Mistaken Lyrics!"
So... Raise your hand if you have hear the song that goes "sky full of Ladders." I bet half of you are raising your hand. I hate to burst your bubble, but the lyrics are not actually "sky full of ladders" nor are the "sky full of letters" as I found out two Google searches ago. The song is actually called "Lighters" by Eminem and Bruno Mars. The lyrics are "sky full of lighters!" Which when you think about it makes wayyyy more sense than a sky full of ladders. I thought maybe he was getting all Biblical... like a sky full of ladders to heaven? I don't know. I hope we can all at least agree it totally sounds like he says ladders. Singers really need to enunciate their words better. I mean everyone is always getting mad at me for mumbling and not speaking clearly... I think that famous people should be held to the same if not a higher standard than I, a mere common person. Go get some speech therapy lessons.
P.S. California summers= the best. It's official. I don't want to go back to Spokane in two weeks.
Not every blonde college girl is out there partying every weekend. It is about time the boring ones get some attention too.

Party, Quiz!
Summer is definitely coming to an end. I have successfully packed one suitcase full of things that I will need in Washington, but never ever need here. California. Such a lovely place. Why did I decided to go to school in gloomy Spokane? No one will ever know. 'Cept Jesus. That guy knows everything. So anyways.
Main topic today: Lyrics to songs.
I think I should make a special section, of sorts, for lyrics to songs. For those of you who don't know me very well, I love to sing. I sing along with the radio all the time in the car, but I have horrible hearing or something because I do not understand lyrics to songs. Usually I will just mumble along with the song because I know that I do not know the words. But, on "rare" occasions (aka "all the time") I think that I know the real lyrics and so I sing along my bizarre version. I don't know why I always seem to think that these random phrases make sense in the song, but I suppose it is something we all do. Right? No? Just me? Okay.
It is time for "Jenae's Mistaken Lyrics!"
So, Enrique has this new song "I Like It", and yes, I do like it, but that is besides the point. In the song he says "Party, Karamu, Fiesta, Forever" (I had to Google the lyrics for that). I for a good month or so have been singing the lyrics thusly: "Party, *mumble*, Fiesta, Prueba." For those of you who do not speak Spanish, "prueba" means "quiz". Why I thought Enrique was trying to tell us "Party, Quiz!" I have no idea. But it just really sounds like it. Think about it next time you hear the song. I don't seem so nuts now do I?
P.S. KARAMU? Googled it. It's a feast on the sixth day of Kwanzaa. Enrique is not African-American. He does NOT celebrate Kwanzaa. "Party, Quiz" isn't seeming like such a weird lyric anymore is it? Mmmhmmmm.
