creeeeepy

i was just singing along hardcore to some glee radio station on pandora, and the following commercial just said, "hey, great singing voice. you must really like that song." i already put a post-it over the camera on my computer because i'm afraid it's watching me. ummmmmm, can computers hear you now?

happy birthday

i really wish i were in austin to celebrate the birthday of my best friend.




happy birthday ♥

ugh

i love ellen. but i'm pretty upset that she decided to back those wildcats who should have lost to us.

finals...ahhh!

i have finals next week (i had one yesterday...and ROCKED it). so, till next week. not that very many people read this. BUT, i did get my first comment from someone i don't even know! randoms are reading my blog! woohoo! i guess i'll have to do it more often. but for now...i study till my head explodes

sophie hanks

i have a test tomorrow...but i can't stop procrastinating! damn internet.


side note: i'm just putting it out there that i think natalie portman is going to have twins. she's ginormo [and gorgeous] for only being a few months preggers.

oscars

so, when the oscar nominations came out on january 25th, i made a plan to watch all the movies i hadn't seen yet. i'm a planner. i'm good at it. i love to plan! the problem is, i don't like executing plans. so, i didn't watch very many of the movies i planned to see before today. mainly, the ones that are still in the theaters. but, i was also thinking it wouldn't be a huge deal because i don't have a tv. so, i wasn't going to get to experience the oscars this year. i wasn't going to get to see the dresses and suits or see, immediately, who won what. so how bad would it be that i not have predictions? but, i have just learned that the oscars, in addition to the red carpet, can be streamed online. but, i've heard that story before. "you can watch this game online here...you can watch this award show there..." and it never works out. so, i'm not getting my hopes up. but I would love to see what anne hathaway and james franco have in store because i have huge crushes on both of them :)

movies i wanted to see, but have not gotten a chance to yet:

127 hours
true grit
the king's speech
rabbit hole
blue valentine
biutiful (but this one isn't playing in denver...perhaps in atx?)

that's not too many. at least, not like previous years. i'll probably knock them out when i'm in austin on break (yay!) and not worried about school so much. i just wish i could execute a damn plan efficiently.


*update* YAY! i got to watch it all (well, most of it thanks to the coffee shop i was at needing to reset their router like 5 times) at watch-oscar-online.com. one of the things i was saddest about (but it will probably be on youtube soon enough) was the internet losing connection right at the beginning of anne hathaway's duet with whoever it ended up being with. and i'm sure james franco did something weird and funny...but i didn't see any hint of it. the autotuned song was incomprehensible. also, a lot of the speeches and introductions were in fast forward mode thanks to shoddy internet connection. but, i'm so glad i got to see most of the awards. even if it meant me skipping out on a lot of the studying i had planned for tonight. it's ok. james franco is worth it.

ohboi

oliver

sir oliver charles is daniel and my doggy. he was born on february 27, 2010. today he is 1 year old.

he is cuddly, playful, cute, sometimes stinky, loveable, and pretty smart. i didn't end up bringing him to denver, like originally planned, because 1. it was cold, and 2. i didn't know what taking care of the pup myself and going to school would be like. daniel works crazy hours, so it would've been hard to him to take care of oliver, too. so, he went to houston to live with my mom, dad, and cousin. it was the perfect situation because, thanks to everyone's work hours, the boy is only home alone for a short amount of time. (i was about to put the schedule up here...but my parents were severely burglarized almost a year ago and it would be so not cool if someone read this and ended up in our house...not that i have any readers or that anyone really knows where my parents live)

anyway, daniel and i love oliver with the whole of our hearts. here's a photo journey of the little guy's life thus far.

the daybook

i've been working on this one blogpost for about a week now. it's hard to pull the words out of me for it though. i should be done soon.

in the meantime...i've been getting into the daybook. it's a beautiful and wonderfully written blog about a girl, who fell in love with a boy, their life together, and FASHION. she's got great style :)

anyhow, she's got a giveaway going on right now for THIS magnificently gorgeous dress. so, not only am i here to promote the daybook, but to blog about the giveaway (because it means an extra entry to be thrown in the drawing bowl!). oh boyyy, i hope i win it. it's so pretty!

ok, goodbye. hope everyone's friday is going nicely :)

gaga

according to my friend lauren, this is me circa 1995. amazing.
