confessions of a sci-fi-holic


story time.


not long after Twilight was all the buzz, a friend from work told me about a new vampire show. she was addicted/in love with it and was sure that i would feel the same, if i gave it a shot. i was a-okay with the amount of sci-fi i had already partaken of... so i never watched it.... (big mistake).

well... months later... i'm bored out of my mind. trying my hardest to avoid any and all studying. i had already watched all recent episodes of How I Met Your Mother, The Office, Community, and GLEE. "what else can i watch?", i thought to myself as i desperately searched for something else to distract me....

then i remembered Kaija's words....

"You need to watch 'The Vampire Diaries', you would LOVE it!"

aw yes...


oh how i love this show! i immediately watched all of the episodes available on the CW's website. all of which were season 2. i was confused... but i caught on pretty quick.


well, here it is, my break, and i needed more things to take up my time... i called Kaija up and borrowed season 1. (big mistake).

haha false.
best decision i ever made.

yes i spent all saturday and sunday night from 9:30pm-3:30am watching it. yes i slept monday from 4am-2:30pm (yes 2:30pm. oh muh gash! never have i ever done that until 2 days ago).

well, let me tell ya. i love it. i'm slightly embarrassed, but not enough to stop myself from blogging about it.

all you twilight fans out there. you will love this so much better! yes, there are a few parallels to the twilight saga, however, the story has substance. vampire loves girl not because he loves how her blood smells, but because she is amazing.

besides, the people in this show are beautiful. unlike the actors in the twilight movies... they chose possibly the worse people to represent what stephanie described as "greek gods" and so forth... take a look....

leads.
the flawless girls! so beautiful!
the Lockwoods... can't tell you what role they play... you've gotta watch!
perfect Stefan.
the little brother... so cute!

Damon. Saucy.

NOW FOR THE COMPARISON:



the difference is stark my friends...

anyway... i'm all caught up! i love this show and i recommend it to anyone/everyone who digs twilight... cause i'm 100% positive that you'll dig it too! =)

smooth as silk

this one time i thought that i was going to avoid shaving until the end of my 3rd semester (mid january).

then (after 3.5 weeks) i wore black tights to church ( hairy legs=nasty=must be covered up) and you could see my 1/2+ inch leg hairs poking out.

sick.

i shaved.

my legs have never felt better.

smooth as silk.

soft as a babies bottom.

oh ya.

the art of procrastination

you know procrastination?

I, my friends, am the MASTER of procrastination.

You can try to take the title... but I'm pretty sure I'm the winner.

Not quite sure if I should be proud or ashamed...

Instead of studying, I've been doing some day-dreaming. Let me share what my dreams consisted of:

Shopping. I know, I know. How materialistic of me. Oh well. I like cute clothes ok? It's not like I worship them or anything. I came across this website a couple weeks ago and fell in love. Too bad I am FAR TOO POOR for anything (the "Under $50" section consists of jewelry and adorable outfits for small children). I would like to own one of their dresses someday. So elegant, so sophisticated. So beautiful. I wish every day were a dress up day- like it was in the 50's.

Romance. Not love. Not marriage. Romance. simply someone to like. That would be fun. So would one of these. Dare I say it's been awhile? Cause it has. And it's about time I like someone who likes me back.

Ok so I lied a little. I did dream for a moment about a huge dance party. Aka my wedding reception. It was awesome.

The Open Road. Have you ever wanted to go somewhere sort of by yourself? I have longed for that lately. Like... Really bad. I wish I could get in the car and go. Just drive. Jam out to MY music AS LOUD AS I WANT singing/screaming every word at the top of my lungs. Then arrive to my destination... ideally the beach... sit. read. feel the rays of the sun warming my skin (and burning it-oh well). just... do whatever I please. ugh it would be magical.

And of course... the one thing that is ALWAYS on my mind... GRADUATION! The other day I was thinking about how good it will feel. I cried. For lots of reasons. Thinking of the next few months and how easy, but at the same time hard/stressful, it's going to be is reason enough to cry. However. The fact that I am 5 months away from become a Registered Dental Hygienist is bewildering. Twill be fantastic and I will be throwing a huge party-which you are all invited to.

To sum it all up...
I am a dreamer... who procrastinates.
And I love this song!
