Blogs
The three blogs i have chosen reflect the things that i am interested in and/or assist me in my everyday life.
The first blog is a Bengali cooking blogThe author focuces on Bengali food or American food with Bengali twists. I didn't start cooking til I got married and also I got tried of always asking my mom for recipes (even though i still ask sometimes). Bengali cusine is different from indian, and this blog really focuses on it. a big part of my culture is food and i use this website and my mom's suggestions for my cooking.
The second blog I chose is focused on humor The blog uses mostly videos and images. The lack of words is probably a reflection on its viewers like me, who look through this blog when they need a break. After all, for me humor is the best destresser.
The third blog is pampers I am a first time mother and I need advice. This website has a community of parents that you can talk about the challenges of parenthood. It also has advice and answers for questions. For example, I used it for when I started to make my own baby food for my son and I needed to figure out how to do so. Potty training is next because I am getting tried of changing diapers.
Remix
I love this remix. Grover from Sesame Street does a spoof of the Old Spice commercial. Grover does a very good reenactment of the the commercial, but with a sesame street twist. After all Who doesn't want to smell like a monster.
This remix was based on my idea and made by my husband and his fellow first year residents. Beep Beep It was done for the graduation ceremony for the third year residents. My husband had come home one day telling me that his year had to do something for the third year residents. In the previous years, the first years just did impressions of the doctors (not really funny year after year) I suggested to my husband the concept of doing a parody and including medical jargon. We came up with the first couple of lines and he pitched the idea to his colleagues. The song is a parody of Tick Tock by Keisha.

ReplyDeleteI love that Beep Beep remix! What's cool is thats it uses medical terms that I'm sure the audience (residents) understand. I've seen many other parodies of the Tick Tock song by Kesha, but they're usually spoofs of the video itself and just have some random blonde girl rolling around and acting drunk. Because this one is specific to a community, I think it makes it interesting and worth the watch. I think it could work for other communities as well. Thanks for putting it up!
Your Grover link reminded me of this:

Muppet's Bohemian Rhapsody
I loved the BeepBeep remix. The idea that someone probably did that over night on one of those busy schedules was great.
ReplyDeleteThe Grover video is wonderful. I was laughing as I watched it. I wonder if the kids got the message? But then again, Sesame Street has always been skillful at appealing to adults and children viewers.
