It’s the internet’s answer to Punk’d and even more than that.

Worried About Ray

This is beautiful and from now on my favorite song. I am not so much worried about Ray. It’s just that my wisdom tooth aftermath sucks pretty badly. Anyway, tomorrow I’ll up pictures of this year’s BRG prom. Looking forward to catching up with friends and teachers (although teachers are implied in friends, usually).

This song, called Worried About Ray is awesome. It is by the Hossiers, in case you’re wondering. And speaking of imeem. Check out their music streaming service. It is the best quality available for free, so if you are looking for something less messed up, you’ll chose imeem.com over youtube.com!
