may you stay forever young

mind the title, I'm listening to some Bob Dylan (back when you could actually understand what he was singing).

so I just found out that Heidi and Spencer wed for real thanks to Brian Boy! God, that makes me so mad. Sorry to all the Speidi fans, but I was really hoping for a break up this season. Darn. i really though Spencer and the bar tender were gonna hit it off, but like he said, brunettes aren't his type. Darn again. Heidi could do so much better than that blond slob she now calls a husband.

speaking of Heidi Montag, have you people heard her new single?! Haha! oh jeez, it is too addicting.

so I'm trying to be at least a bit up-to-date with my music. trust me, when all you listen to is classic rock, you kinda forget that people still make good music in the 21st century.
Like Metric! I completely stopped listening to them after Poster of a Girl stopped being the best song ever.



BTW: My ode to Gregory Peck and all his fantasticness will be coming soon! Just as soon as I've seen enough of his movies.....

Sabrina. I love the last outfit!

Roman Holiday*sigh*the most romantic movie, ever.

"i love, your funny face"

i walk like this 'cause i can back it up



I love Beyonce. Tuesday night, I headed over with my besties to watch Sasha Fierce herself perform live. Words cannot express how amazingly amazing that concert was. First of all, Beyonce is HOT. What else is there to say? Her legs, face, the way she talks! Oh man, she was so gorgeous in every single way. But the definite highlight of the night: "What's your name?" "KEVIN!!!!" "And what's my name?" "MY WIFE!!!!!!!!!" "SAY MY NAME" "BEYONCEEEEEE!!!!!!!" This dude threw a paper onto the stage, Beyonce wipes her sweat on it, gives it to the guy, and then that conversation happens. Trust me, it was hilarious.

Anyways, I recently watched Sabrina and Roman Holiday. How much Audrey Hepburn can I take? I am obsessed with her movies, especially Roman Holiday. How dreamy was Gregory Peck in that movie??????? I totally understand why my grandma named my dad after him. She has a HUGE crush on that man. And William Holden and Humphrey Bogart in Sabrina! Honestly, I was rooting for Will to win Audrey's heart, but it was so obvious Humphrey was gonna get her. For once, I actually found Humphrey Bogart charming. Now I just have to watch My Fair Lady. I've had it for a while, but I haven't found the time to watch it.




Yesterday, I came home to find my very own turntable in my room! I love my grandpa so much. He was able to set the whole thing up, speakers and all. And he even brought over some more vinyls!!!! I've been nonstop listening to Boston and The Moody Blues. Now I need some Who, Zeppelin, AC/DC and of course, Bruce Springsteen. I've been searching hard for a copy of Born to Run.
NEED IT, WANT IT, NOW

meet me tonight in Atlantic City

I've pretty much been non-stop listening to Bruce Springsteen since I got back from Palm Desert. (hence the title of today's blog) Don't ask why.

So today was my first full day of school since the Break and I was so out of it. It was raining today, which definitely did not lift my mood so I was reminiscing about the desert, and how much I loved the dry heat. I had French last block(gross) and Choir before that. After today's class, I know now there is no way I am taking that as my elective next year. No way. What sucked was I totally lost my voice 5 minutes be fore class started. My mistake for talking with Jess about Grey's Anatomy. Trust me, all you have to do is say McDreamy or McSteamy to the both of us, and we might just go crazy thinking about those two words and what they really mean to us.
Last night I watched a very very very very amazing movie called "Running on Empty". And the reason I stumbled upon it and decided to watch it was because an 18 year old River Phoenix was the star. I actually cried at the end of the movie, that is how touching and emotional the film is. The whole time I was watching it, though, I could not stop thinking about why River Phoenix had to die. He was such an amazing actor, and maybe if he was still alive he could stop his brother from becoming the joke of Hollywood. And on the plus side, River was really really cute. Too bad he passed at the age of 23.

The only upside to today was the fact that it's a Friday. I didn't go out or anything, but I did get Breakfast At Tiffany's from the library. Oh you do not know how overly happy and excited I was. The first time I watched this movie, was on my iPod. Definitely not the most comfortable way to watch a 2 hour movie. Afterwards, I realized I completely idolize Holly Golightly(Hepburn's character). If only I could look like Audrey Hepburn for a day, if only...........

Bye bye rainy days

Finally, I'm getting outta this place. Heavenly sun, come to me!

Shopping and swimming(still don't have that bikini bod yet) and DISNEYLAND, in 8 hours it will be take-off for moi.

I'm praying I've got everything I need packed, I made like 4 lists.

So today, I hung around with my 2 favourite LFAers, and the sibling of one. I introduced them to some of the best independent stores here (that included a super cool record store!) and after we headed for some sushi, although I ordered chicken teriyaki. There was so much to eat, I didn't even finish it, but I was so full I didn't even eat dinner..........oh well, sucks for me. I was also introduced to 'coffee bubble tea' it wasn't bad, but I still prefer choco over any other flavour.

Since I have to wake up at 4am (WTF) I must sleep now. Well, it'll all be worth it once I hit that gorgeous sun. I swear though, it if rains at all, I will be so pissed......

See ya in 8 days!!!!

If U Seek Amy


Yeah so I kinda just figured out why that Britney song is so controversial. After researching through Google I discovered what 'If U Seek Amy' stands for. Please people, who the hell cares what the title actually means. There are far more women degrading, racial slurring, swearing every other word songs on the radio. But are the parents of America protesting against those songs, I don't think so. Seriously, if it took me this long to figure out what is so racy about it, then chances are majority of the kids who've listened to this song do not know what it means, and probably don't give a damn either. So parents, if you're so worried about what your kids will learn or "discover" from listening to this song, you might as well ban them from listening to the radio altogether.


On a lighter note, I owe my local library 10 buckaroos. WTF?! Okay there is no way I owe them that much. I returned all the DVDs I had out. This is messed up, I bet it's all the work of that creepy check-out lady. She hates my guts, it's so obvious.


I'm praying it doesn't rain tomorrow, I don't need that right now, please God. So 2 more days and it's the dessert and sun for moi. Yet I don't have the bikini body I was hoping for, darn. The fact that my mom made fish&chips tonight doesn't help. So now, I'm listening to 'E-Pro' by Beck, a song I've heard so many times but didn't realize it's full potential until I started hearing it on the "I Love You Man" commercials. Speaking of which, I really want to see that movie. Although it is about bromance, it looks so hilarious!


Alrighty, well my sister is eating ice cream, and because I have my wonderfully painful cramps, I am most definitely craving.

crazy

Alright, so the most eventful moment of my day was when I went grocery shopping with my mom. I was just happy to be out of the house!
In 3 days I will be gone from this place, though. Finally! It feels like my Spring Break hasn't even started yet.
Unfortunately, I will not be able to sport a bikini at my decided vaca. destination :(
I don't have as much confidence as other girls I know........ So I guess it will be a one piece and a tankini for me. Darn, if only there were more track workouts, I wouldn't be so ashamed, hahah then again, who am I kidding???

So the parents have told me that we will have one day dedicated to shopping, wonderful. One day. Oh well, I looked up what was at the Palm Springs outlet, nothing excitingly good besides VANS and CONVERSE. Note the blog before this one, I really need to go to Converse.
The rest of the trip will consist of 1 day for DISNEYLAND (last time I went, I was an incredibly chubby 10 year old, so I am most defs excited for this), another day dedicated for hiking (oy) and another for a gigantor water park. Although I calculated the time, and there is a 97% chance the deadly red thing will be visiting me during that time. Can you say killjoy?

So what am I doing now? Listening to old school Britney Spears songs that's what! I was thinking about the songs I used to listen to when I was, well ya know, little. And I remembered when Christina, Britney, N*Sync, Backstreet Boys, Spice Girls, and S Club were the coolest people in the world. So I went on imeem, typed in Britney Spears, and now I'm listening to Crazy, Stronger and Oops I Did It Again. Seriously people, whatever happened to bubble gum pop? The catchy lyrics and tunes are just the most addicting things ever. I now know why I was such a huge Britney fan. Too bad her tickets had to be uber pricey, well that's why I'm going to see Beyonce right?
