My sister, Staci, grew up obsessed with Disney’s movie, The Little Mermaid, so I wanted to try to help her live out one of her childhood dreams of being a Mermaid…but finding a real mermaid hasn’t been crossed off my TO-DO-LIST yet….and none of the nearby grocery stores or fish markets sell severed mermaid tails, at least not that I know of….SO, I had to improvise.

(On a side note, I still plan on finding a real mermaid someday and naming her Ariel, unless of course she already has a name, that’s cool too.)

Either way, I will probably ask her out…unless she’s a reverse mermaid, you know head/top half of fish with human legs…I still have plenty of time to figure this out.)

ANYWAYS, back to the Christmas thingy. I came up with an idea I thought would be cool.

I had my sister, Brandi, help set up a room with stuffed animals of underwater creatures, with fake treasure/jewels scattered around, seashells, a bubble machine, and a cool light projection thingy that made the ceiling look like we were underwater.

THEN, I bought some fleecy, blanket, material stuffs and had Brandi sew a mermaid tail blanket thing for my other sister, Staci. (The sister this present was for).

After everything was set up, I played a video on the T.V. with me convincingly dressed up as Ursula…or some male-version of Ursula…who still had parts of the female Ursula’s «Figure…» (Clearly I have a gift for cosplay though, right?)

The video started out with me kind of re-enacting the scene from The Little Mermaid, where Ursula convinces Ariel to become a human, but with me convincing her of the opposite, to become a mermaid.

I ended up asking Staci (The gift-receiving Sister), to unwrap a present underneath the couch she was sitting on. (Which was covered in a giant blue blanket to represent the underwater-ness of the setting).

In the present was the mermaid blanket tail that Brandi had made (The Gift-Assisting Sister). Staci put on the mermaid tail and sang the part where Ariel goes «Ah, Ah, Ahh, Ah, Ahh, Ahhh…»
(You know, the part in this video where my other Sister, Brandi, sang. That wasn’t originally there, just added it for this video for additional randomness, hehe)

Also, while she was singing and slipping the mermaid tail on, I stood in front of her and started violently shaking a blanket in front of her (To represent the mermaid transformation process, obviously).

The last part of the video was me trying an impression of Tiny Tim (R.I.P.), whom I am convinced, serenades you upon death as you descend into the sky (Or wherever your respective beliefs and/or preferences takes or doesn’t you.)

Anyways, it was really fun to set up and embarrass myself in front of my family, which honestly is something I’m really good at. My family thought that I should further embarrass myself by posting the video on YouTube, so I did!!
Well not all of it…but the ending…the whole thing was like 13 minutes or something…you can see more of it on Brandi’s channel if you want, there is a slightly longer version on that one that I put up so my mom could share it with our relatives and stuff.

For those of you who watch my video or are subscribed to my channel, HEY!!! WHAT’S UP?!?!?! HOW WAS YOUR CHRISTMAHANNAKWANZIKAS AND/OR OTHER HOLIDAYS???? HOW MANY NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS HAVE YOU ALREADY LOST??? I’M AT 12 SO FAR!!!!

P.S. No, I did not film this underwater with my new GoPro camera, believe it or not, it was actually a Green Screen!! Crazy, right?? You probably had no idea that I was actually using a Green Screen, did you??

P.S.S. No, that wasn’t my actual hair, believe it or not, those were actually wigs!!! Insane, right?? You probably had NO idea that those perfect condition wigs, that I toss in a box, were actually fake, did you??

P.S.S.S. Actually, Brandi did something referred to as «Combing,» to that one red one out before filming the new scenes with me…this «Combing,» apparently involves running these spiky needles on a stick through the hair repeatedly. TECHNOLOGY!!!!

P.S.S.S.S. No, I did not undergo breast augmentation before filming this video, believe it or not, those were actually volleyballs under my shirt!!! Wicked camera trick, eh???

P.S.S.S.S.S. Yes, that was me singing…except for when my sister was singing…that was her singing….but anywhoo, the usual apologies for any pitchy-ness or whatever I may have messed up on. 99.9% of the time when I sing, it’s when I’m alone…in the shower…or my car…you know, the usual stuff, mostly Britney Spears stuff to build up my street cred. I blast that sh#! with my windows down when I drive to work to establish my bad-ass-ness. THUG LIFE!!!

P.S.S.S.S.S.S. I CAN’T WAIT FOR FINDING DORY TO COME OUT!!!!!!!!!! JUST KEEP SWIMMING, JUST KEEP SWIMMING!!!!!

I am a hardcore gansta
