HAPPY NEW YEARS!!!!!!!

Okay, I know there's still another like, 6 hours and 15 minutes until I can officially say that, but I have to do it now, because I know I'm not going to be on here, blogging, at midnight. So Happy New Years to all! I'm going to try to post my mental list of resolutions(it's long) tomorrow, but I make no promises. Anyway, I wish you all an awesome '09!!
Enjoy this live version of New Years Day by U2, the greatest band ever, and one of their best songs.

Oh, and I forgot to tell you, it's the year of the ox. Of course, Chinese New Year starts later, but I thought I'd tell you guys anyway.
Have an awesome night and stay safe!


P.S. Is it just me, or has this year gone by like, SO fast? Seems like it goes by faster and faster each year. Weird.

Robert's New Hair

So, what do you guys think of RPattz's new hair? Better worse? I love it, though I still miss his long hair. But it'll grow back in time for New Moon.

What's New

Sorry I haven't been posting much lately, I've been SWAMPED with work. Getting ready for Christmas break! Only one more day to go!!!

Still so many Christmas presents to buy/make-I'm definitely feeling the stress. Christmas is in, what, 7 days? I still have two presents to make, and 4 more to buy! UGH. December is going by so fast.

So yesterday, Cody happened to hear me talking to Francois about my blog, and he was like,"Why would you have a blog?" So I started defending myself and then Nikki starts ranting for me(thank you, Nikki). He just couldn't understand why I had a blog-really, he is a weirdo. Why not have a blog? I need some of my fellow bloggers to help me out here. Why do we blog? And why on earth is it so freaking fun?

So much to do right now that I probably shouldn't be blogging, but I feel like I'm boring you guys. And I'm in a desperate need to rant. I have so much studying to do and I have to do this big project-the funny thing is, we got it like, 2-3 months ago, it's due Friday, and I just started it 2 days ago. Nikki has the same procrastinating issue. We both work better under pressure, which can come in handy sometimes.

My new love for Kanye West is blossoming more and more with every song of his I hear. His newest CD, 808's and Heartbreak is AMAZING! "Love Lockdown" won me over first, then "Heartbreak", and now "Robocop". It's incredible, because I HATE rap, but Kanye West has something all the other rappers don't-actual TALENT! Crazy, huh? If you get a chance, check out some of his new stuff. It's awesome.

My life's been pretty boring lately, but I guess I like it that way.

I've been told to avoid the local news, because it'll just make me hate the world even more than I already do.

Oh, right, and there was a bomb threat! Let's just hope I don't die tomorrow! Wish me luck!

Thanks for reading!

Hot Guy Of Sometime: Ben Barnes

Yeah, we all know who he is, but he's still hot.

200th Post!

Yay! Can't believe it's already my 200th post!!!
I just want to thank everyone who reads my blog-I love you all. I remember the time where only my three best friends read my blog, but now I've got all these people complimenting-it's absolutely insane. Thank you!

Things have been going better lately, minus the Francois issue. Synfan isn't going to move, which is awesome. My grades have gotten better. Semester's almost done. Of course, now I'm being bombarded with projects and EOC's. JOY.

Can't wait until Xmas! Who's excited?

I got this great quote from John Mayer's blog.
"What is the holiday spirit about? It's about joy. It's about not worrying about what ails you. It's about great conversation, levity, and fun."

That just sums it up!

In other news, I heard that Angelina Jolie is pregnant with twins-AGAIN! She only gave birth like,6 months ago, or something, right? Jeez. Brad wasnt' kidding when he said they wanted a soccer team!

So, yeah, that's about it, I think.
Hope everyone's doing well!

The Fear-Lily Allen

Here's the new video for Lily Allen's new single,"The Fear". Her album "It's not me, it's you"(great title, by the way) comes out February 9th.

Will.i.am To Produce U2's Next Album!

I just heard that there's a chance Will.i.am will produce U2's next album.
NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

He's a good producer, but not for this kind of music! He's built for producing hip-hop, pop, and R&B, not the greatest band in the world! God, the world is coming to an end. SAVE US ALL!

P.S. Sorry about the size of this font. Blogger(or as I'd like to call it for the moment, Booger) is being retarded. Ugh.

Robert Pattinson As A Child!

Oh my god, thank you robertpattinson.org for this adorable pic of Rob as a kid! Love it! What a cutie.

THE EDWARD DOLL?!

I flipped out when I saw this. I have a serious issue with toymakers turning gorgeous actors(ex.Orlando Bloom, Johnny Depp) into action figures/dolls. They never look like the person or do them justice. And here they go, making an Edward Cullen doll. EDWARD! You can't make an Edward doll. This is terrible.

Twilight...Again

So, Sarah, Nikki, and I went to go see Twilight again today. This was my second time.
Katie said Twilight was better the second time for her, but Nikki and I both agree that it, even though it was still awesome, it was better the first time.
I still think the fight scene with James was a little too...graphic. I hate blood.
I've fallen in love with "Decode" by Paramore. It's grown on me and it fits the movie so well. Can't wait to get the soundtrack for Xmas! "Supermassive Black Hole" is another one of my favorites.

This is random, I know, but could Rob be any more gorgeous? I think I'd faint if he was...
"You're like my own personal brand of heroin"

Surrealness, Love and Theft, and Surfing

It's terrifying how reality can hit you like a ton of bricks going 80 mph. It's interesting how one...incident can cause your eyes to open to the world that surrounds you. You realize how things that you thought could never happen you to you or anyone you know are in fact real, that those stories on the news could happen in your very own town. The fact that I've been so close to people involved in things, been so close crazy, insane people with no limits, is an eye-opener. I wish I could tell everyone what's happened, but you'll just have to trust me that it's scary and sad, because I've sworn not to talk about it. I've just felt the extreme need to write this and to tell everyone that the world is in fact not a good place. Unfortunately, we can't fathom the reality of it until it's too close.
Synfan's taking a break from the blog scene due to personal reasons, and I'd love it if you all respect that and give her your best. I'll be taking over the Twilight blog for a while, but don't worry, Synfan'll be back when the time is right.

On a happier note, I found out about an awesome band last night, called Love and Theft. As some of you know, I can't stand Taylor Swift's music(absolutely no talent), but I was reading an article about a song of her's called "Hey Stephen". Apparently, the song was inspired by the lead singer of Love and Theft, Stephen Barker Liles. I decided to look up Love and Theft and found that they are actually really good. Check out this acoustic performance:


Last on the list is this amazing surfing video I found of a guy riding a tsunami. This is AMAZING!!! Really blew my mind. Wish I had the balance to surf.

Great Stills

Thanks to www.kstewartfan.org for these great stills! Enjoy!
Not exactly sure what's going on in the second pic....but I'm mega jealous of both of them in these pics. Love them both!
I'd love to be in that's tangled mass of gorgeousness in the first pic! Seriously, hottest cast ever, right?
More pics here.

U2-Unchained Melody

I love this song. It's beautiful and U2 does a great cover of it. If you haven't heard it, listen. Enjoy!

Josh Peck

For Synfan, my bff, I thought I'd post some stuff about Josh Peck, her current obsession.
I am not ashamed to admit that I love Drake and Josh and I still watch it occasionally(even though I've seen every episode at least 10 times and know every word that will come out of their mouths). Though I still prefer Drake slightly more than Josh, I still love Josh. He's funny, he's cute, and he's so grown up now! The picture on the bottom is what he looked like when the show first started. The one on the top is what he looks like now. He was recently in The Wackness, with Mary-Kate Olsen. Don't think it did too well, but you know, we still love him.
Enjoy!

Hot Guy Of The Week: Henry Cavill

Don't know how long it's been(too lazy to count) since I posted the last Hot Guy, but I figured it's about time.
For the pleasure of me, you, and Synfan the most, here is Henry Cavill, the other dashing gentleman from The Tudors. Enjoy!

6 Ways To Spruce Up A Room

I've been inspired by Domino magazine, this home decor magazine I found on the coffee table of our beach house, and I wanted to share some of my quick, easy decorating ideas to spruce up a room in little time.

1. Letters-I like painting wooden letters and hanging them on the wall. You can buy letters at most craft stores-Michael's is my favorite. I have a collection of many A's on my bedroom wall(pics here). I can custom paint letters for anyone that wants one. Leave requests in the comments and I'll get back to you on it.

2.Mirrors-Adding mirrors to a room makes it appear larger. Of course, it's also good for checking out your reflection! ; )

3.Flowers-Flowers and plants add a splash of color and a sense of spring into a room. Put it in a nice vase and it can instantly brighten a room.

4.Posters-I have lots of posters in my room. They show off your personality and give visual interest.

5.Collages-I have two collages in my bedroom(pics here) I made both of them out of magazine clippings and large pieces of cardboard. It's simple and easy to make, but slightly time-consuming. Fun, though.

6. Lights-I love having lots of light in a room. I hate the dark-I'm not scared of it, but I don't like it. There are some ADORABLE lighting fixtures at Urban Outfitters(see them here)

Hope this helps anyone itching for some redecorating!

New Look

So, what do you think of the blog's new look? I took Shela Tat's advice and looked at some blogger layouts elsewhere. Let me tell you, it took me FOREVER to finally decide on my favorite. There were so many awesome ones. Hope this doesn't blind your eyes.
I will be making a new banner soon enough.
Feedback would be amazing. See you in the comments!
