i am an idiot

Posted on by

Don’t I feel like a freaking idiot. hee.

Thanks to Rachel, Alice, Mazzie, Michelle and newbie for clearing up John Mayer’s age for me, lol. What can I say? I can be an extremely gullible person. My only defense is that he said it! On the Grammys! For the entire world to hear! I just didn’t get his point until now. *feels stupid*

Oh! Saw Everwood earlier — So good. It was such a powerful episode — I was in tears by the end. The “revelation” scene between Ephram and Andy was so heart-wrenching but I’m so glad they were able to make peace with each other. I hate it when there’s tension between them. But Laynie’s leaving?!? No! I had just gotten to love her and she’s leaving — come back! And Amy and the Harts continued to grate on my nerves. They are all seriously living in Denial land with regards to Colin. Gah. Anyway, if you’re not watching this show yet, I highly recommend it. You’ll be doing yourself a favor. I promise.

grammys

I can’t believe the weekend’s already over… back to work tomorrow…

Wow, I never thought I would say this but I really enjoyed the Grammys this year. I usually watch them for the sake of watching and not for any real desire to see who was going to win any awards. But this year there were so many great performers, I actually found myself enjoying it. I adored John Mayer — he’s so good live! And is he really only 16?!? I like to say that I’m a fan of his but I did not know that, lol. Love love loved Norah Jones. I’m so into her right now. I’ve had her CD on repeat for awhile now — her voice is just so mellow and beautiful. I’m so happy she won all the awards she did. She genuinely looked so surprised and happy. And NSync! It was so good to see them singing together again, except what the hell did JC do to his hair! Cut it off. Anyway, they really did a fabulous job with the BeeGees medley. *sigh* I also really enjoyed No Doubt, Simon & Garfunkel (my dad would be proud! lol) and Eminem (the RunDMC ending rocked). The one thing I thought was really weird was that there was no host. It kinda worked and it kinda didn’t at the same time. Oh, and Erykah Badu made herself look like a freaking idiot. Ugh.

Speaking of music — I got my Justin Timberlake concert tickets! Whee! 🙂 And I had no idea he was touring with Christina Aguilera until today. Should be very interesting. Can’t wait til June.

Sooo… I might go see Justin Timberlake when he comes to the Oakland Arena, hee. Tickets go on sale Sunday morning so we’ll see if I actually wake up on time to buy them. I can be so lazy on the weekends.

There’s one thing that I absolutely adore about Windows XP — when you set an image as your desktop background and have it centered, it resizes it to fit your entire screen without ruining the quality of the original image. It’s awesome and I love it. It means that I can still use all the 800×600 wallpapers that I’ve made on my 1600×1200 screen. Yay for me.

Doing the Friday Five because I have nothing else to blog about —

What is your most prized material possession? I don’t know really… my computer? 😛

What item, that you currently own, have you had the longest? Stuffed animals that I got when I was a wee young ‘un. I don’t have the heart to throw them out.

Are you a packrat? I go through phases of being a packrat. Sometimes I keep absolutely anything and everything. And then the next week I’ll turn around and go through a phase of throwing it all out. What can I say? I’m weird.

Do you prefer a spic-and-span clean house? Or is some clutter necessary to avoid the appearance of a museum? I’d *like* a spic-and-span clean apartment but sadly, that’s not the case. But it’s not really cluttered either. We have a lot of stuff but everything has its place. I used to be a clean freak but I’ve become a lot more lenient since living with boys, lol.

Do the rooms in your house have a theme? Or is it a mixture of knick-knacks here and there? No themes. Though I wish I had the time and the money to properly decorate. As it stands, my room screams “post-college.” I still have all my college textbooks on my bookshelf and a bunch of random papers on my desk.

not jordan!

Just wanted to say… No! Not the cute guy! 🙁

I just finished watching my tape of American Idol and I’m sad to see Jordan go. I mean, he’s Asian, he has a somewhat pleasant voice, and… he’s cute! As in very. hee.

I need some eye candy in the top 10. But no, America has gone and voted him off. Does no one want me to watch this show?!? Cause seriously, I remember being more excited about AI last season — the current season’s singers just aren’t doing anything for me.

I had a pretty “eh” type of weekend. Dad came to visit, went shopping… nothing exciting. And I didn’t have a three-day weekend like everyone else. I had to go to work. And I did absolutely nothing because no one else was at work. Boo.

Went to see Daredevil on Friday — I don’t know anything about the comics really but nevertheless, I totally hyped up the movie in my head. It’s the Ben love, I have to admit. And while I thought he did a great job, there was just something so extremely cheesy about the movie. The fights were seriously only seconds long and the ending came to a resolution so quickly. It felt like whiplash. It just ended without really showing us how the characters came to the conclusions they did. However, I did love that Daredevil isn’t shown as a great superhero. He’s human — and his emotions and his actions reflect conflict rather than being all about the good. I liked that. Jennifer Garner and Jon Favreau rocked also.

Ummm, so I hope everyone is having a spectacular Valentine’s Day. 🙂 I’m just killing some time — Rob is watching the Laker game and then we’re going to go see Daredevil! Very excited — I love Ben and Jen(nifer Garner, not J.Lo). Will do the Friday Five:

Explain why you started to journal/blog. No particular reason — I just wanted to have a place to write down all my random thoughts.

Do people you interact with day to day or family members know about your journal/blog? Why or why not? Less than 10 people in my “real” life know about my site… my boyfriend, my best friends, my cousin and a few others. And I’d like to keep it that way — I haven’t really had to “rant” about anything but if there ever comes a time, I like to think that my blog is the place where I can be completely honest about anything.

Do you have a theme for your journal/blog? Nope — I write about anything and everything that comes to my head. I do tend to write about television quite a bit though. What can I say? I’m a TV whore. 😛

What direction would you like to have your journal/blog go in over the next year? Eh… my blog has no focus.

Pimp five of your favorite journals/blogs. I can’t choose! All my dailies are my favorites. 🙂

castaways

Posted on by

Eeeee!!! I can’t speak. Too happy. 🙂 So. Much. P/Jo. Cuteness. “Castaways” was one of those episodes that went by way too fast — I seriously looked at the clock at about 8:50 and was like, “What?!? Only 10 more minutes? More P/Jo!” I loved every single moment of the episode, even if it was a bit cheesy and contrived (I mean, come on, getting locked in K-Mart?). After all, they talked about their past! That’s cause for celebration right there — couples on this show are notorious for not resolving anything. I’m glad that TPTB are letting these two crazy kids have a second chance (I hope, anyway). And continuity! It’s good to see you again! The writers actually remembered moments of P/Jo’s history (ie. Pacey teaching Joey how to drive). Will wonders never cease.

::sigh:: Some of my favorite quotes:

— Joey: “Unless you take me home now, right now, I think little miss thing isn’t going to be so interested when your sister gives you the tongue kissing of your life.” BWAH!

— Pacey: “A beautiful woman did just offer to have sex with me – no strings attached.”
Joey: “You’re so cute when you’re delusional.”

— Joey: “What the hell is happening to my butt right now?”
Pacey: “That would be the seat warmer that comes standard on all your finer German automobiles.”
Joey: ” Well, my lower half thanks you for moving so far up the socioeconomic ladder.”

— Pacey (about their argument): “We could live for a thousand years and we would never finish this.”

— Joey: “Regular or menthol?”
Pacey: “Are we smoking or shaving?”

— Joey: “Hello chin! You’re back.” (That’s my personal favorite in the entire episode). hee.

— Pacey: “If the next words out of your mouth are ‘Take out the trash,’ I will officially have a preview of what it would be like to be married to you.”

— Joey: “I was going to say — Did you know…?”
Pacey: “Did I know what?”
Joey: “This was a dream come true.”

How am I going to wait until April for the next episode?!? I hate rerun hell.

omg, I’m at work right now (I’m so bad — I’m blogging at work!) — but I can’t stop thinking about going home so I can watch Dawson’s Creek tonight. I mean, come on, it’s the Pacey/Joey hour! lol. I need help. 😛

i am in love with roswell

Posted on by

I watched the last episode of Roswell season 1 on the Sci-Fi channel today — and I really really loved it. Back when it was on the WB, I watched the show on and off (don’t know why I didn’t catch it more often, it was on after Dawson’s Creek). It just didn’t interest me that much and I kept seeing Jason Behr not as Max but as Chris Wolfe from DC, lol. Anyway, I missed most of s1 and s2 and started watching regularly during s3. Yes, I know s3 is widely regarded (as is s2 apparently) as a complete mess but I don’t know, there was something that intrigued me about a show that had avoided cancellation twice because of the loyalty of its fans. I didn’t think s3 was all that great but maybe it was because I didn’t have any of the backstory — so when the Sci-Fi channel picked it up, I was so excited to get the chance to see s1 in its entirety. And I really wasn’t disappointed. I loved all the characters (yes, even Tess, no matter how begrudgingly) — and I found myself really caring about all of them. ::happy sigh::

Season 2 starts tomorrow so we’ll see if my happiness lasts much longer — or maybe I should just cut all ties now so I’ll only have happy s1 memories. Hmm…

Monday night’s Everwood episode left me with another favorite TV quote —

Colin (to Amy about choosing between him and Ephram): “Think about what you want. I know what I want Amy, I want you. But you know, that shouldn’t be enough for you. You have to want me too. This me. I don’t expect you to have an answer for me right now, it’s okay. I’ll wait for you. You waited long enough for me.”

Now that’s a love triangle.

It’s Dawson’s Creek.

Yes, again.

I just wanted something DC-ish again because I keep seeing the “Countdown to Goodbye” promos on the WB and they always make me all sad. *sniff*

Plus, I have no idea when I’ll be able to create another layout because work has been keeping me pretty busy on the weekdays. And when I get home, all I want to do is… eat, watch TV and sleep. Yup, this is the life you can look forward to after college. It’s exciting, really. No. Really.
