it's been wayy to long since i've posted!

over a year.

So I figured I'd give you a FULL update on my life (mainly tv life... because, duh, this is TV.com)

Right now, I am eating rocky road ice cream in my beautiful Orange County, CA home with my wonderful husband, watching the news. (I actually hate the news... i think it's depressing, but he loves it.) We just got back from dinner with our friends, a couple who got just had a baby. it was fun, but now im tired. My big brother is supposed to call me tonight to let me know how his wife is doing... she was put in the hospital with some complications with the baby, but they're both okay now. im just excited to be an aunt!

alright, so enough about my personal life. here are all of my current obsessions in order from most obsessed to least obsessed.

1.) TWILIGHT.

i dont think i'll ever get over my obsession with this series. I've read and re-read all 4 books (btw, the fourth was great... even if some people didnt like it) and I've already bought my tickets for me and my friends for the midnight opening of the movie which comes out NOVEMBER 21ST!!!! I feel like I know all there is to know about it cuz ive watched clips and interviews on youtube like a million times. But that's okay... I think. I might need to go to TAA (twilight addicts anonymous).

2.) GOSSIP GIRL.

Okay, I am officially hooked on this show. I never miss it, and I find myself thinking about it all day after it airs. My biggest obsession with it is Chuck and Blair. I think they are the cutest couple and I am DYING for them to finally be together! I was in tears during that last scene where they realize they could never be a normal couple, because they like "the game" too much. :/ Still, I love it nonetheless.

4.) I LOVE LUCY

I watch it whenever I have a chance on TV Land. I absolutely ADORE Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz... they're hilarious and I never get sick of watching them on screen together. Lucille is an idol with the way she can be classy and humorous all at once and can make anyone laugh. I would have loved to meet them.

3.) SIA

This musician is AMAZING. If you haven't heard her, LISTEN NOW. I first heard her hit, "Breathe Me" and I loved it and bought all of her albums, and I listen to them constantly! I HIGHLYYY recommend.

Alright, I was going to list more, but I'm tired... so I'm going to stop there for now. Please comment!

See you on the boards (specifically, Gossip Girl and The Office)

I haven't posted a blog in a while... so here's whats been going on.
I read Eclipse (the book from my previous blog) in one sitting.  (yes, it was THAT good.)  I really do recommend reading the twilight series.  The only bad thing is that I have to wait another full year or so to wait for the 4th one to come out...


Also, my brother got married a few months ago (july 7th...i think) and they just found out a week or so ago that they're having a baby! (:  I couldn't be happier.  My brother is a little young (24) but he's responsible and I love his wife.  She's one of the sweetest things ever.  So congrats to Tyler and Katelyn!


other news... Me and my sisters are kinda busted.  They're grounded...but they can't really ground me since i don't live at home.  We were having a R.A.C.H night (stands for riley, alexa, carly, and haley night... a little name we made up years ago for our traditional "slumber parties.")  and carly decided that she wanted to sneak out to meet her friends at the movies.  Of course, I told her that I would cover for her.  Alexa and Haley didn't understand so they wanted to tell our parents but I told them not to.  But after about an hour after carly left (driving my DAD'S car) I got a phone call from her telling me that she was stuck on the side of the road and the car wouldn't start.  I didn't know what to do because my dad's car is almost as complicated as it is old.  So...i told them.  We had to pick her up (12 am) and get the car towed in the morning.  So, that's pretty much the last time she'll ever sneak out.


And last but definitely not least...I'm officially MARRIED!  Evan and I "tied the knot" on August 11th... and are still living in the apartment.  We hope to move into a house by the end of the year.  We've been saving our money and Evan just inherited some money from his grandfather.  So everything is all good (:i love married life...but i hate the cleaning and laundry.and it will only get worse when he have kids...but please, im only 20.  I don't even want to think about that. lol
thats all for now....
later.

well, i dont expect everyone to know. But i DO expect all vampire-obsessed, Edward/Bella-loving fans to know.

That's right. It's the date of release for the third book in the "Twilight" series, ECLIPSE by Stephenie Meyer!

Now, I've read many many books in my life. I'm a huge bookworm. But this series really got my attention and is one of the best series I have ever read. I hate vampires. I hate anything that has to do with sci-fi for that matter... but I love this. Even if it is about vampires, its certainly not your typical cape-wearing, fang-bearing, sleeping-in-a-coffin, vampire. Its a realistic story, with not-so-realistic characters.

So read it. Twilight comes first. Then New Moon.

And now... its Eclipse. The one i've been waiting for ever since that day i finished New Moon (which just happened to be the day i STARTED it too)

August 7th.

Don't understand my obsession?
Well, I dont understand peoples' obsessions with Harry Potter and Star Wars...

I guess some things arebest unanswered.

just got home from florida... which was great. i got to spend time with friends that i haven't seen in a while and also... Aiden's family.

God i miss him so much. I can't believe its already been over five months ago that he died.
and i think about him everyday.

I spent the whole day yesterday with his family and we all just went on a walk and talked about him and all of the good memories that we had with him. And surprisingly, I didn't cry...
Until after I heard one of his little sisters (who's 7) start to talk. She said that even when he was growing up, he was still the annoying big brother that he had always been and that he would tease her all the time and get on her nerves so much... and she misses that. She said sometimes she can still hear some of the crazy things he says and she can't help but laugh. She told me that he also talked about me a lot and how it was so great to be my best friend.

That was the most heart-breaking but touching thing that I have ever heard from a seven-year-old.

Aiden boy, we all miss you so much. Your mom let me sleep in your room last night because its the only place that I feel really close to you. She also gave me one of your t-shirts from your closet.... im wearing it right now. Well, i love you so much kiddo. You are my best friend in the entire world.

Sorry, I know its a depressing entry. But it's just something I felt like i needed to write out.

I hope that everyone isstaying safe this summer

okay, well, i just got back from new york (visiting my aunt) and let me tell you that it was not the best vacation ever...

sure, its new york, so theres always something to do..but no matter how hard i try, i cant get away from things back home. i had at least one sibling calling me everyday to complain about something, or fill me in on more family drama. it never stops...

but anyways, now that that's over.. im going to florida to visit some friends who live down there for a week. it makes me feel old... these are two of my friends from high school, and now they're married and expecting a baby. time really does fly, i guess.

so i leave tomorrow... be back next sunday.

until then, i hope everyone is having a great summer!
