Christmas Break

Feliz navidad! I hope that you all had a lovely Christmas. I know I did. Currently I am visiting my cousins in Cincinnati for the next two days. It should be uneventful as usual. Not that I hate my family it's just that we have nothing in common. But anyway. On to gifts! I got an iPod and a camera to take to Costa Rica and I got a couple shirts. The radio that I bought for my car is a present for my birthday next month so I'll have to wait for that but it's okay. And mine and Sarah's surprise gift was a Wii. We got wii music and trauma center: second opinion with it. It has been a great present. Our Mii channel is like full of crazy people like Helen Keller and Michael Jackson. Fun times. We also just got The Proposal from Netflix and I have watched it four times and I love it. It is so cute and Betty White is fabulous. Plus the fact that Ryan Reynolds is a very cute man. I am also in the almost middle of Scarlet which is the sequel to Gone With The Wind. It is pretty good so far. It's like 800 pages long and I'm at like 300. On the way down to Cincinnati I drove the entire time! My butt hurt very much after 3 hours of driving but it's okay. The best part is that I only almost killed us all three times! I was very excited. Well I am too busy watching the Proposal again to write a longer post. Write soon!

Obsessions. You have them too don't you? pt2

Namaste! Well my weekend was good. I really really wanted the Bengals to win their game in San Diego but you can't always get what you want. It snowed and we had a 2-hr delay this morning so that made me happy. Though i didnt really get to sleep in because when I woke up i couldnt fall back asleep. Nothing else exciting happened over the weekend. Today since it is basically our last day of school because tomorrow is the talent show and no teacher does anything, my group of friends passed out our Christmas gifts. Rochelle got us Charlie the Unicorm bows from Hot Topic and I love them! they are like rainbow and they have a little Charlie on them in the middle. Rachel and Ellen are going to give our presents to us after break and I have no idea what either of them are getting us. I got this book full of would-you-rather questions for us to share and pass around from house to house for sleepovers and parties. Everyone seemed to like it a lot. There are some very interesting questions that provoke very interesting answers. and now, to the main point of this blog!
So in my last post I talked about the real life obsessions I have when it comes to people. In this one I'm going to tell all the fun fake one me and my friends have created for us to laugh about. first of is that I am having an affair with the principle. This comes up as a joke every now and then. It started with him bringing a pair of sweat pants to me in Geometry and then everyone spun it from there. i find it to be quite hilarious.
Rachel has been deemed obsessed with our history teacher. He is probably the most annoying teacher on the face of the earth. So we gave him to her haha. At the last basketball game I went to we discussed all of these while i was talking about L.B.
Ellen is cheating on Mr. B with the new football coach. Mariama is in love with Mr. D, one of the oldest, craziest subs we have ever had. A.B. is dating our old Alg. teacher. Michele is dating our freshman Enligh teacher and Ann is in love with the AG teacher. They all are just for fun. None us us are actually in love with our teachers. That would just be creepy >.<
More on obsessions, I have two shows that I absolutely are obsessed with. OTH and Glee. I have seen every episode of OTH and I know like every tiny detail that there is to know about the show. When i get the seasons on DVD from the library, they turn me into a non-responsive vegetable to everyone except the characters. Glee does that to me too but not as severely. I am in love with the characters and the plot lines and everything about these shows. My mother thinks I have no life but that's just what she thinks. I can accept the fact that I am obsessed with these things that I have mentioned. Leave me a comment saying what you're obsessed with!

Obsessions. You have them too don't you?

So this blog is going to be all about my obsessions I have with people. Just coming home from the basketball game where we talked about basically nothing but these people inspired me. I'm also gonna talk about the little fake obsessions that we created tonight too.
Mt first new-found obsession is in our basketball stud, L.B. I don't know why but I just think he is the cutest one on our teams and by far the best. It probably won't last past basketball season but for now I'm like his number one fan. I'm noticing like all the little things that he does when he's mad or that he always kicks his legs up behind him and wipes of his shoes when they are just standing around. The sad part is that one, he's a senior so this is the last year that I have to see him. And I hear that off the court, though he is the nicest guy ever he isn't interested in dating anybody. And I get that because he has to focus on his game in order to play as well as he does, but I really wish that he had a different view. Yes, I know girls are dramatic I am one of them. Ohh well, I guess I will just have to live...
My second little infatuation is with a T.B. who has been mentioned in a previous blog. I have no idea why I am fawning over him. He is with D.C. (most of the time) and he would never give me the time of day. He is probably the most popular kid in our grade and probably the most gifted in terms of sports. I don't know to me he just seems like there is a layer that he doesn't show to the general student body. Maybe that mystery is what draws me in and keeps me captivated. Ooh well. None of these will ever turn into something but it's still fun to have something to talk about on a daily basis. Since I am so tired I will post the second half of this later. That one will talk about the silly little fake obsessions me and my friends have. Write soon!

Our first Wednesday without Glee.. :(

So last night was our first night without Glee. It felt empty. Glee has been the ray of sunshine in my week for the past 13 weeks. Though I filled the time slot with Friday Night Lights, I missed Glee so much. Good news though! Fox is playinf two episodes of the season next week at 8. I've heard it will be The Singles Ladies episode and the one with Kristin Chenowith. Excited!! But in sad sports news, Chris Henry died today. He was the Bengals #3 reciever even though he was out with a broken fore arm. I am sad, mad, and happy at the same time which doesn't really make any sense. I'm sad because he was a great player and the team really needed him. I'm mad because now Coles has to play and he is kinda terrible. But I am happy because this will give the team a good reason to play hard and maybe get a win. My prayers go out to his family and the teammates who've been a huge part of my life.
I really havet to finish this English homework I have. Write Soon!
Oh! check out my friends blog www.marissaellen.blogspot.com She just started today but hers should be fantastic!

There are not enough hours....

Hello! So it is Sunday. In sports news, the Bengals lost today to the Vikings. They had too many penalties and not enough points on the board to pull out a win today. And something that I care about a lot, Brian Kelly left the Bearcats to be the coach at Notre Dame. I am seriously pissed about this. Now they won't have him in their game against the Gators and he just up and left them when things were going so well for the team. In South Bend, he is going to have to start all over with recruits and finding a QB and a WR to lead the Irish. I am having a hard time thinking of who could be the next coach in Cincy. Hopefully it's someone who will keep them in winning shape and take them to the championship. Anyways, done ranting about that. Now that Glee is over until April, I have nothing to watch, literally. OTH is going on a 5 week hiatus and both ANTM and PR are over. The only thing I have is FNL. Until American Idol returns and then I will have another source of musical television. Unfortunately though, Secret Life will be back. This is the one show I watch that I honestly can't stand anymore. The first half-season was ok then I fell in love with it in the second half-season. But since then it has just become a pain to watch. The characters are whiny, the story lines are bad and the romances aren't going the way I'd hoped. This is probably the last half-season I will will watch even if they bring it back. I can't see any plausible reason why they would since its ratings have dropped and all the people I know who watch it are sick of it too. Enough TV, let's talk about life. Recently I have been really busy to my surprise. Maybe it's because I have numerous addictions in FarmVille and Spyro 2. they take up all of my time and so I have none to do fun things like blog or learn Hindi. I have really fallen behind in my Hindi class. I haven't worked on it in ages. I really need to make a list of things I need to accomplish over Christmas break. The first is definitely to work on my Hindi. Then watch episodes of OTH season 6 and a few Disney Classics. And play with all the gadgets I'm getting for Christmas. I have 700 songs to upload to my iPod when it comes.....ugh. I wrote a small but probably very vital piece to DeCassie the other day but it is only half finished. My editor has not helped me in the slightest and I have too many ideas running around in my brain to capture and write down. Writing new material and all those ideas is going on the list. I also have to decide what I want to do for my birthday. I'm going to be 16 and I'm very excited!! The party is only going to be my close friends but it'll still be rad. I'm thinking princess but I'm not sure where to go from there. There are so many different ways it could go. And I have to renew my copy of Scarlett so that I have it to read over break. I've only read like 100 pages of it and its like 700. I will finish it eventually but I just haven't been reading. And the above things are why I have found myself so stretched. Being a 15 year-old girl is tough these days! Hopefully I will post another blog before break but if I don't Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night! Love you, write soon!

Let it snow!

Hey! It has been so long since I last blogged. I have been meaning to for a while but have never gotten around to it. Since my last blog, I have been accepted to OMEA District X Honor Band. That was a lot of fun. Though I did get rejected from OU Honor Band. I understand why though. I went in there and had a panic attack and didn't play as well as I could've. I've been getting lots of emails from from different colleges saying that they are interested in me coming to their school. I've just been keeping all the letters and emails in folders for future reference. Not a lot has been happening in my personal life. Thanksgiving was good and very filling. I'm happy about how well the Bengals are playing as well as the Bearcats. They both have tough games coming up and I am hoping and praying that they win. For UC, it would mean soo much because then they would've beaten a really tough opponent in the Florida Gators. Today was the first real first snow. There is like an inch, inch-and-a-half on the ground that is blowing around. I am happy and sad about it. I like the snow, it's very pretty. BUT that means its cold and I hate the cold. Christmas is almost here and I am excited for the holiday season and the presents. We have started our winter puzzle at home. It's a picture of a lighthouse in France and it is VERY difficult. But enough about life, more about TV.

SO the half-season finale of Glee was on last night. In my mind, it was a very good way to leave the viewers while it goes on hiatus. I am so happy that Finn finaly know the truth about Quinn and Puck. It can only lead to good things. And the fact that Will and Emma are finaly going to be together after all this time is nice. This half of the season and this episode in particular has just reinforced my love for Finn. His character is always being challenged and he is always stepping up to the plate. His courage and emotional strength astound me and I am truely in love with his character. And, now that he is pissed at Quinn, maybe just maybe, he will get with Rachel and their relationship will grow into something we can all admire. Maybe the reason I love Finn so much is because he is the type of guy i'd want to have in my life. He is passionate about all the things in his life and he is super fine haha. Maybe that's why I seem to have a wierd crush-type thing on TB(names have been omited for the sake of my dignity)....He resembles Finn in a lot of ways.. Write Soon!
