Hey girl, hey!
October 31, 2007

I’d like to start this post off by saying: I totally understand that I watch too much television. I know and I realize it. But one day I am going to make a career out of writing all about the things I already write about. We’ll just call this research.
I think dating [...]

Don’t Shop at Forever 21 - STILL.
October 30, 2007

First, I’d like to preface this post with: I haven’t stepped foot in that store since I wrote the essay about it the first time — in March. However, today I was dragged in with my friend and I felt like my soul was starting to burn. I have a couple of complaints [...]

The Hills are alive with the sound of drama…
October 30, 2007

So, we “found out” this week that The Hills was scripted, thanks to Gavin — LC’s date last week. I don’t really think or know if it matters. Opinions?
Okay, wow, honestly… does Whitney think it’s really okay to host a Hollywood party at a church? And put photo booths in the confessionals?! [...]

What do you do with a BA in English?

MUSAK
October 27, 2007

After doing some research, I found that there actually IS one specific person that is behind the music, so to say, for today’s most popular TV shows. Alexandra Patsavas is the woman in charge of setting the mood to music, currently for Grey’s Anatomy and Gossip Girl. She also was in charge of [...]

October 26, 2007

Remember how I said “Facebooking” is the new “stalking” last week? Read on for a very relevant essay.

Apply to eons of copy writing and copy editing jobs all over the country.
Drive to the mall in Tampa just to pick up a pair of pants. Don’t stay. Drive back. Watch reruns of The OC. Proclaim to stop being so Cali-centric and only watch reruns of Sex and the City.

Meredith Grey Monologuism - episode 5
October 26, 2007

Brought to you because of the delightful ABC.COM and their online television. No thanks to my DVR, which seems to dislike recording anything on ABC or MTV LCTV.
First of all, I cannot believe they opened the show with one of my favorite songs — “Listen Up!” by The Gossip. Oh my goodness, elation! [...]
