A New Direction For This Blog.




I know I have not been updating this blog as much as I once did. Sometimes, life gets in the way and so does one’s direction. I have a new project in the works-in fact, I received my first comment this morning and only a handful of people know about it- so it is being indexed. I’m not ready to reveal the blog and I may not until the end of the project. It’s more personal than my little blog here has ever been and for that reason I’m staying anonymous for now.

With Google cracking down on blogs with “non-quality content,” I’ve become a bit jaded with the blogging process. I think anyone who shares their stories, their lives, knowledge- is contributing. The sad fact- too many people believe they can be, or are, professional bloggers. My belief is- blog for yourself first, be true to who you are and you’ll gain readers. Don’t blog on the hopes of making money or becoming famous-this isn’t blogging, it’s called journalism.

Way To Go Britain-You’re Not So Great At All.




Ok, I get it. People are sick of hearing about Susan Boyle, but after watching the live feed of the results from Britain’s Got Talent, I thank goodness I’m an American. For a country, who, in the past, has viewed Americans as shallow, you proved, with voting the dance group the winner, who, sure, is talented, but not the best, that you’re petty and cold-hearted.

The smear campaign against Susan worked. You won. All the negative remarks about her looks, the probable lies, (or embellished remarks), of her reactions to media, swayed millions to vote against her. Why? This woman has been pushed aside her entire life and job well done. You pushed her aside once again. But guess what? Susan will have the last laugh. She may not have won the money, or to perform for the Queen, what she did manage to do, however, is win the hearts of millions of people around the world. You should have been proud of this fact and realized how special she is to those who have put off their dreams. Here in America, we root for the underdog.

I’ll probably receive heat from those across the ocean for this post, but I can’t help it that it sickens me to see the emotional ride the woman went through. Come to the US, Susan. We’ll show you the respect you deserve.

A Smile To Your Face-Baby Porcupine With The Hiccups.




Someone-and I’m sorry I forget the username, Tweeted this on Twitter. The video is too cute not to share- a baby porcupine, eating a banana, with the hiccups. The small things in this world can add a smile to your face.

24-Hour Twitter Boycott.




If anyone is interested- send me a DM or Tweet @bethchelle. I will not bow down to the elite simply because they’re too lazy to change settings, or simply ignore. Twitter is no longer social networking, it’s a group of people chatting-that is, unless you have a million followers. Any instant message system is far better at this point.
