Yay for me — I just bought the second season of BtVS on DVD. 🙂 I can die of happiness now. S2 is definitely one of my favorite seasons — all the Buffy/Angel angst. ::sigh::
I just paid for the trip that Rob and I are taking to Hawaii in August — I can’t believe I charged such a large amount of money on a credit card. Eeek! But whatever, it’ll be great to finally get a chance to relax. I think I deserve to splurge on myself a bit. 😛
Ugh, it’s so disgustingly HOT over here. My apartment is all stuffy and the air just *sits* — there’s no wind whatsoever. Bah. Go away stupid sun!
Anyway, Rob’s back! Yay for me. 😛 I know I must sound like ever the codependent girlfriend but I really miss him when he’s not around. Awww. 😉
Wow, what a slow Saturday — it just felt like it was going on and on and on… geesh.
Let’s see, I woke up this morning (or *cough*this afternoon*cough*) and I was immediately bored. So I dragged my lazy self over to Borders, which is across the street — cause I really wanted to buy The Strokes CD. I’ve been listening to Last Nite non-stop for the past week. Can you say addicted? hee. I found out that they’re going to be performing at the KROQ Weenie Roast in LA next weekend — the very same weekend that I’m going home to Southern CA to visit my dad for Father’s Day. Just knowing that I’ll be close to them makes me happy. 😛 Anyway, the entire CD is great — I especially love Hard To Explain, Someday, When It Started and SOMA. whee!
Hmmm… I also caught the MTV Movie Awards again. It wasn’t all that great — I liked last year’s awards much better, but maybe I’m biased cause I adore Jimmy Fallon. 😉 My favorite parts were the Spiderman and LOTR parodies, when Freddie gets jealous of Jack Black and SMG, and Ewan (::swoons::) and Natalie presenting Nicole with the Best Female Performance award. I now have the biggest crush on Ewan. 😛
Aww, thanks for all the great compliments on the new layout — I’m glad everyone likes it. 🙂 The HP kids are just so darn cute. I can’t wait for the second movie — only 5 months to go! lol.
Oh! I picked up the new Avril Lavigne CD today — it’s amazing. It’s a must-listen. 😉
Ugh, I hate disappointing people. Yesterday I was scheduled to work an event for a radio station where I do occasional work — well, I told them that was okay and they said they would send me all the relevant information via FedEx (this was 2 weeks ago). By Friday night, I still hadn’t received anything, which is their customary way of saying that the event was cancelled. So I stay up late and all that good stuff and Saturday morning, I am greeted to a message on my answering machine telling me that I was supposed to be at the event already and where am I. I felt so bad. But I seriously didn’t receive any information — through email, voicemail messages, or letter. I love working for the station but they really need to communicate with their employees much better, especially since I only work on random weekends.
Anyway, I went to see Britney Spears on Saturday night! She is such a great performer — I loved all her choreography — it really makes me miss all the dancing I used to do. Oh! There were 3 dads and their daughters (ranging from 8-14) sitting a few rows in front of us. The dads were drinking beer and dancing the entire time. Their poor daughters looked so embarassed. lol.
And yay! GO LAKERS! :p
::teeny bopper screams:: Guess who’s on the cover of this week’s Entertainment Weekly — it’s Dan Radcliffe! yay! Isn’t it great? He’s all disheveled and oh so cute. 😛
Gah. I’ve been playing with PSP all night trying to make a few wallpapers of some of the great P/Jo moments in Season 3. But once I get the screen caps to be semi-decent, I can’t freaking blend all the pictures together so they look like a collage. 🙁 They just look like a bunch of pictures stuck together. I just don’t have the talent. Waah. Must practice until I want to kick PSP cause you know, that’ll make it do exactly what I want.
Plus, when I was surfing the net for DC screen caps, the only place that has any is Katie Holmes Pictures and of course, the caps consist mostly of Katie. I need caps of the rest of the cast too, especially Pacey — I mean, it’s really hard to make a P/Jo wallpaper when all the pics are of Joey and the back of Pacey’s head! Sometimes I feel like I’m the only person in the DC fandom. I mean, if you look at the FanArt board on Fan Forum, the Roswell, BtVS and Smallville threads are thriving with a good number of fan artists posting. But the DC threads are completely lifeless. ::sigh:: It’s kinda sad cause I so *heart* DC (well, as long as I can pretend Coda and S5 didn’t exist). It almost makes me want to learn how to make screen caps so I can feed my own need for pics. *Almost.* But not quite. I just don’t have the time.
Anyway, I was watching Harry Potter earlier and I just love Hermione — “I’m going to bed before either of you come up with another brilliant plan to get us killed, or worse, expelled.” Oh! And I love this line too — “It’s Wingardium LeviOOOsa not LeviosAAA.” Hee. Spunky that one. Hmm, I also got my *N Sync Pop Odyssey Tour DVD (yes, I am a fan) in the mail today (thanks Amazon!) — I must go see if I can steal the TV. 🙂
Special shout out to Down South Rob and Sebastian (only $152 per cheek! I’ll take it!) — My Rob got you guys some Star Wars toys. 🙂
I got lots of cool stuff from Amazon today. 😀 I got my Harry Potter DVD, a little R2D2 figurine and Rob got the Star Wars trilogy. What fun! I’m going to be permanently glued to the sofa. 😛 But seriously, that’s all I ever do nowadays. Get home, check email, and deposit myself in front of my computer or in front of the TV with remote control in hand. It’s sad really.
And now that I’ve wallowed in enough self-pity these past few days to last a lifetime, let me just say that Daniel Radcliffe — the boy who plays Harry Potter — is SO adorable. hee! I’m 22 and I have a crush on a 12-year old. 😛 I was watching some of the interviews with the director and producer on the special features part of the HP DVD — they showed a scene where Dan, Emma and Rupert (the three main actors in the movie) are about to shoot a scene where they run into a classroom and all of a sudden, Dan pretends to choke Emma and she’s making this really adorable “Ahh!” face. ::sigh:: I want to take them home with me.
Which reminds me that I have this really weird (well, my boyfriend thinks so) list of celebrities whose cheeks I want to pinch if I ever had the chance. heh. Yeah, I’m nutty but you all love me. 😉 I might as well share it with you all:
1. R2D2 – yes, I know he’s round and doesn’t have cheeks but I could settle for a hug
2. Shaquille O’Neal – because of him, I actually went to Burger King and bought one of those gross Shaq Packs
3. Dan Radcliffe – see Nicola’s scans page for more reasons why I think he’s completely adorable
4. my friend Sebastian. heh.
That’s all for now. Yes, I’m a huge dork and yes, I know. But I’m going to blame it on all the sugar I had from the ice cream cone I just ate. 😀
I’m in love with R2D2. (Yes, the droid from Star Wars). 😛 I keep playing with my little stuffed R2D2 toy — it beeps when you press its stomach! It doesn’t take much to amuse me. heh. Anyway, I’ve just started reading the original trilogy books and I watched The Empire Strikes Back earlier tonight and I had a question (I’m looking at YOU Sebastian!): How come R2D2 didn’t recognize Yoda when he and Luke went to the Degobah system? Or at least remembered his name or something? Hmm…
Anyway, I also caught the series (no! *sob*) finale of Felicity. *Semi-spoilers ahead!* — It was umm… ok. I have to admit that I wasn’t crazy about the whole time-traveling idea but at least it helped me understand that Ben is Felicity’s destiny. The writers made that perfectly clear especially with Noel getting married. I’ll always be a FAN though — and watching all those flashbacks of their romance in season 1 made me miss them so much. ::sigh:: The ending shots of the cast were perfect — all of them laughing and smiling. But can someone explain to me why Elena was there at the end? Didn’t she die a few episodes earlier? And Tracy? I liked his character but I didn’t think he was that important to bring back for the final episode, much less the final scene. And I just loved the little “Thank you” commercial from the WB — they really did say “Hey” a lot. 😀
Wow, what an amazing episode of Buffy — I feel so emotionally drained from watching it. I love love *loved* seeing Giles again. 🙂 I’ve missed him so much! And since I don’t follow spoilers for the show too closely, I had no idea he was coming back. What a great surprise! I loved the Giles/Anya scenes (and was it just me, or did anybody else sense something between these two?), the Xander/Willow scene at the end, and of course, “Darth Rosenberg.” hee. I wasn’t too crazy about Dawn, though — I used to like her but lately, she really has been a bit annoying. But maybe that’s cause the writers haven’t given her much of a storyline. Eh, whatever the reason — I need her to take her whining off my TV screen. 😛 And whoa! That ending! I consider myself a Spike fan but I don’t know what to think. Hmm…
