Best Way to Learn French!

This is the coolest video of all! My friend from my mission, coincidentally the same one who taught me to break dance, sent it to me though facebook. Oh, I love it!

Except Snape and . . . Who was that??

Look I am on youtube!! For more of me check out Alina's blog.

Dough? Next on Broadway?

My friends showed me this one. It seems like something that should be my life story and i almost said that it was but that would be a lie. It isn't. But it is cool. So watch it.

Oh man. I don't know if it is because it is late right now and I should be in bed or what but I found this Whose Line clip to be so amazingly funny. It's all pretty good but I put this on here for one specific part. Collin's comment about the arctic tern almost killed me. I was seriously on the floor and in tears. I had to put my computer down because I was doubled up laughing. The laughing fit lasted for a good fifteen minutes and I think it might have even lasted longer that the Angie/MacCools incident. I love the fact that that will be the memory of Angie that I will always have whenever I think of her. Her parting memory. Best of luck to you in Seattle!

Oh, YES! Wyoming!

This one is one that I got from my dance partner - Krista Mangan. You have to check out the other ones with Jerry and Superman as well. I wish that we could find the whole soundtrack the Oh, Yes, Wyoming song. Maybe it will appear in a future post.

Where My Voicemail Comes From

My brother showed this one to me. It has since become a family favorite. So much in fact that we have replaced each character with a sibling and have the Ripplinger Mysterious Ticking Noise Song. Very Cool - I must say. My voicemail song was made especially for it. Each of my siblings instead of saying their name says mine. Quite enjoyable. I already have people calling me hoping that I wont answer so they can hear it again and again.

Now Clap Like This

This may freak you out. Possibly. But get over that fact now, watch it five times straight through, and you will love it! And you might even pick up on some German vocabulary. My favorite part is the guy in the "German" beenie that says "Oh" as he break dances.

Blog in Use???

Hi everyone! I am now using my blog! But not for the purpose I had oringinally intended. It is now for school! (*Blech!!) I know - super lame - but I wasn't using it and we figured it would help us out. So, though there will be a lot of posts about school stuff, I will honestly try to put in some fun stuff too. (though it seems like that starburst commercial didnt get the response i expected)

Thanks!!

Berries and what else??

I'm a little lad who loves cheezy commercials such as this. :) Hope you enjoy it! I enjoyed it so much that I had to make a post on my blog about it - and that is saying something. I don't just post on my blog for anything.
