Alternative- Defined.

14 October 2008

As Jessica may have mentioned, we have a fervor for alternative music, only it is not what you think. Yes, I for one adore Coldplay, but that is not really what we are getting at here. In our personal terminology alternative music is anything aside from rap/hip-hop/R&B/pop. Now, don't get us wrong, we like listening to the Jonas Brothers too, but what being an alternative-music lover means is you typically detest mainstream music, and fall away from the crowd, and create your own trends, not follow others. For example, we have a friend who used to read our blogs, (personal), and one day decided they were "really cool" and wanted to write one, we told her it was a lot of responsibility updating, and whatnot and that you can't write 4 posts and stop. She agreed, and now has a blog- on which she has posted, you guessed it... 4 posts. It just goes to show being "slightly-insane" is not as easy as you may think. Anyway, hopefully by reading this blog you will be inspired to express your individuality, and not be afraid to paint your trees blue. Stand up for yourself, and use big words!

-gasp- I love your lack of paragraphs =)

No, just kidding.

Anyways, I thought I asked you to define preppy?

Alternative was easier.

I see.
So you're doing a definition series then?

Yes.
