Oh hell. Let me just say that I am officially putting on my delusional Pacey/Joey shipper hat and throwing a party. Yes, even with the completely snooze-worthy episode tonight, I am optimistic that February sweeps will be fun, fun, fun.
I forgot to mention that e-l.net celebrated its one year anniversary last Thursday! Woohoo! Just a little shameless celebration for my domain. 🙂
Haven’t been in a real bloggy mood lately. Blah blah and more blah.
Did manage to catch the season premiere of American Idol — that was good stuff. I know it’s mean but I can’t help but find it amusing that people with horrible singing voices really believe that they have what it takes to be a pop star. Like that one guy Eddie (I think that’s his name) who wouldn’t believe that he had been cut. They had to escort the poor guy out of the audition room because he wouldn’t leave! omg, he was totally delusional. hee.
I finally caught the latest episode of BtVS!
* spoilers for Potential ahead*
Thank God Dawn is not a potential. I was ready to turn off the TV or something. And I have to say that the SiTs are all horrible — none of them can act at all! Aagghhh. But seeing Clem made watching the episode worthwhile. hee. Clem’s awesome.
* end spoilers *
Yay for more American Idol tomorrow. Something to look forward to.
Yay! There’s a release date for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix! So exciting — June 21 cannot get here fast enough. I need my HP fix. 😛
*Spoilers for the DC episode 511, Day Out of Days, which aired tonight, in the next section —
Yay for me! I actually remembered that the Roswell reruns started yesterday. 🙂 It’s giving me something to look forward to every day, lol. The only thing that annoys me is that the Sci-Fi channel adds an extra commercial break in the last act. Grr! It’s only because they want to go straight to the next show at the top of the hour — but seriously, it screws with the flow of the episode. Blah to that.
I was really happy to see a new episode of Gilmore Girls but I totally could have done without the Rory/Jess kiss fest in the beginning. It was like 5 entire minutes of kissing! Ok, more like a minute but still. It could have been spent on better things — like more Luke! And Lane! And Lorelai! I did love all the Emily/Lorelai scenes though — “That’ll do pig, that’ll do.” hee.
New episode of Smallville too — though I’m not entirely sure how I feel about it yet. It was one of those episodes that left me saying “What the hell?” First of all, I can’t believe they actually killed off Whitney! *sob* I have to admit that I didn’t really like his character in the beginning of the first season — partly because we never really got to learn anything about him. He was just the stereotypical popular jock. But at the end of the season, I really grew to like him and then the writers shipped him off to nowheresville. And then we get him back only to find out that it’s not really him! Grr. Another thing that really bothered me was the whole Lex/Helen relationship — I didn’t feel a single ounce of chemistry between those two. They were so wooden, it was terrible. And I’m expected to believe that Lex sees a future with this girl? Oo-kay. And what happened to Pete? He got beaten up and we never saw him again. Poor Pete. Things I liked — Clark in a wet T-shirt (yummm), the Chloe/Lana scene and the Clark/Lana ending (and no, I didn’t think they were being selfish — just honest).
Oh! Did anyone see the premiere of that new show on MTV called MADE? It was the episode on the girl wanting to become a cheerleader… aww, it was cute. Or maybe I feel that way because it brought back happy pep squad memories. 🙂
Anyway, new episode of Dawson’s Creek tomorrow — is it just me or do the promos make Joey seem like a crazed stalker girlfriend? 😛
Ooohhh… Michael Rosenbaum on Conan… okay, that interview was waaaayyy too short. He seriously made me giddy though! I loved his pot-smoking grandma story and his Christopher Walken impression — MR is such a cutie. *happy sigh*
BWAH! I just saw the funniest thing on TV — *N Sync was on the Spanish channel Telemundo playing foozball. Then at the end, the host was speaking in Spanish really fast and the guys were just kinda standing there trying to look as if they knew what he was saying. ‘Twas funny, it was. Well, maybe just to me. *sigh*
Umm, well, because my life is pretty boring right now… I’ll do the Friday Five.
Where are you right now? Sitting at the dining table, which is the temporary locale for my laptop. I have yet to move my desktop computer off my desk and package it to send to my dad.
What time is it? It’s about 2:30 AM. I’m a night person, what can I say?
What are you wearing? I’m wearing gray sweats and a gray CAL Berkeley sweatshirt. Go bears!
Any people or animals around you? Describe them. My boyfriend Rob is sitting in the living room watching ESPN. No animals.
What are your plans for the weekend? Not much. Went to the grocery store today and bought the best orange juice ever from Trader Joe’s. Yum. Then Rob and I went to Best Buy to buy the Buffy s3 DVDs. And of course, they were out of stock. Grr. Got a raincheck though so I’ll get the sale price when they do come in. As for tomorrow, I’m going to the mall — I just have this urge to buy clothes. 😛
And thanks to everyone who commented on the layout — I really appreciate all the wonderful feedback. *smiles*
I guess my unemployment is not in vain because I finally had the time to create another layout. So here it is — Version 10: The Girls of the WB. 🙂 I’m not too sure if I like it yet but whatever… I spent time on it so it’s going up. 😛
Speaking of new layouts, visit Cat and Marianne. Their new layouts rock. Yes they do.
LOOK! Click here –> Dawson’s Creek CDs.
I think this is such a fabulous idea — you can customize everything from the songs on the CD to the CD label. Eeee! I have a feeling I’ll have more fun making my own CD than I will listening to it when I get it. And I bet I’ll probably have to make more than one CD to get all the songs I want.
I’ve always loved the music on DC. Sometimes I think they do a better job picking the music than they do writing the show, heh. But really, the songs on the show have so much nostalgic power for me. I love This Year’s Love by David Gray and My Invitation by Sarah Slean partly because of their Pacey and Joey connotations. 🙂
oh my goodness, I’m in so much pain right now. But it’s the good pain. The kind of pain you feel after a really good workout. Yes, that’s right. I got back a few hours ago from taking a tahitian dance class in San Francisco and AAHHHH, my legs and my hips are sooo sore. A friend of mine from college who lives in Hawaii is here in the Bay Area for the holidays and she really wanted to check out the dance classes here so that’s how I found myself swaying my hips to drum beats for 2 hours. 2 hours! It was pretty intense but so much fun — I’d love to do it again.
Oh, and thanks to Alie for reminding me that I should have posted a link for anyone who wants to read the aforementioned DC spoilers — here it is. The general DC spoiler thread has all the info you need in the very first post. 🙂
Oh dear, it’s 5am and I haven’t gone to bed yet. I tried, I really did — but I couldn’t fall asleep. In my state of unemployment, my sleeping schedule has once again gone haywire. But my long night hasn’t been in vain cause I’ve been reading spoilers — and I happened upon some very exciting news for Dawson’s Creek (what? it’s still my favorite show!). I knew there was some reason why I’m still sticking around after all these years.
Buffy season 3 DVDs today! whee! Now if I only had a job so I could AFFORD them right now. Blah. Speaking of TV shows on DVD, Dawson’s Creek season 1 is coming out on DVD on April 1, which I’m really excited about. Season 1 was classic — the Pacey and Tamara storyline, spunky Joey, and the short-lived romance of Dawson and Jen. *sigh* Such great memories. I just hope they make it through all the seasons. I especially want seasons 3 and 4: the P/Jo years. 🙂
Hmm… can anyone tell me what people want to see in a “girl” or “about me” section of a site? I want to revamp mine but I can’t come up with anything remotely interesting. HELP me!
Now let’s see if I can actually fall asleep.
Something I forgot to include in my list of New Year’s Resolutions is getting my DRIVER’S LICENSE! lol. If there’s a single most important resolution, it is most definitely that one. I think I have a complex — I get a bit scared and paranoid when I’m behind the wheel. Not a good thing. But I am determined. Oh yes, I am.
When I went back home for the Christmas holiday, I found out that a friend of mine from high school had gotten married a year ago and that another friend recently proposed to his girlfriend. It’s all so shocking — I mean, it seems too soon to settle down. We’re only 23 for goodness sakes! But maybe that’s just me — cause I definitely am not ready for such a huge step.
I must be so bored cause I spent a good part of the day fixing up my fanlisting pages — I even made buttons for some that didn’t have 100×50 codes! It should be a requirement to have 100×50 buttons available on your fanlisting. Ugh, I need to get out of my apartment. 😛
