I gotta post before I run out the door...
I found that picture of Travis and it was messed up, quality wise. It was orignally in GIF format -the colors(colours) were messed up a bit. So I fixed it up because it's just so cute and funny.
Today was the Tennis Masters Montreal Semifinal. Andy won! Man, he got me so nervous, messing up a bit. But woah it was close. And he didn't want to lose five times in a row to Federer (who can be very scary at times!), haha. Mandy Moore was there. I wonder if she knows when to cheer and when not to. Because I don't! Haha. Well, there are the obvious points where I just have to scream, "Yeah!" Yet, sometimes I'm just so confused about whether they got the point or not. But I'm new to tennis, so I guess it's okay for now. Before tennis was so boring because I had no one to cheer for. But now I do and it's so exciting! I just loved the part when Andy hit the ball under his leg and afterward started bowing! They repeated it on ESPN2 a couple hours later and I was watching it again. I had to like pull myself away from the TV and tell myself, "Hello, you watched this already! You already know he wins."
Tomorrow are the finals! I need to tape it.

5 songs Jess! You suck! Haha. J/k. Wow, that must have been fun seeing Rooney...you seemed so out of breath when you posted. Haha. With all your !s! But oh, my! what is this that you say they're performing in Anaheim! I wanna go. 'Cept I think it's a little too late for that.
So, you didn't really mention the band's hair...Haha. Their music video ahhh....Robert's hair just sways back and forth. It's got a mind of it's own. (See Jessica if we had a group blog we could you know talk like this...haha)
... I'm reading
Hunger of Memory now and it's suprisingly good. Well, I shouldn't say surprisingly. It's just that all the other novels were so tedious to read. They would give me a headache. Plus, I can't help but relate-It's a Mexican-American writer who isn't fluent in Spanish.
I don't know if I mentioned this, but Chris, Jess, Sally & I are gonna make a group blog where we talk about "real" issues that are important to
us. We need to come up with a good name for it. These are the ideas for group blog so far:
The other side of normal / A Home Away From Home / Writing to Reach You / Stories (or Tales) of Our Youth / Time's Markings / Endless Summer Feelings / Shopping & A Great Pastime/ Sunny Weather/ Always On My Mind/ Say It Ain't So/ Only In Dreams/ Living in my Skin/ Misplaced Memories
Got an idea? Post it in my guestbook. ;)
You know what I hate? The more I start to like a guy, the more I try to convince myself that I don't.
Ahhh!
I'm beginning to realize that my entries only make sense if you're me. I'm not much into explaining. I don't think that's good for an aspiring writer.

Finally!
I bought
A Rush of Blood to the Head. (Took me long enough) It was on sale at Target for only $9.99!
I also bought
Rooney! (Only $8.99!) Yay. I originally heard "Popstars" a long time ago when
Princess Diaries came out. It scared me then and still scares me now.
These past 4 weeks I've bought more CDs than I have in like a year! (5 Cds...hahaha) And I still wanna buy
Good Feeling real soon.
Jess & Chris went to the WB's
Smash today! They suck. Jess told me that
Rooney was gonna be there but I didn't know that
Maroon 5 AND
Jason Mraz were gonna be there too! Just add All-American Rejects, Liz Phair, & Coldplay and it's my VH1 Top 20 countdown dream concert!
HAHAHA. I'm taping it (cause I have to see
The OC too)...I hope they don't have bad seats so I can see them! If I do I'll probably scream and freak out.
Travis' NEW SINGLE COMES OUT SEPTEMBER 29TH! The same day
Dido's cd comes out! And their new album comes out in OCTOBER! Woohoo!
They should go on concert together...AGAIN! But this time you know, both of them being the main events, sort of how Christina & Justin did, except with
good music.
I'm so stupid I didn't see
Dido when
Travis was opening for them. But I really couldn't cause that day was my dad's b-day. So hopefully they'll have a concert real, real soon in the U.S. 'cause I'm dying too see them.
I made a new
Shiri wallpaper. I'm so suprised at how it came out. When I was barely starting it...it was horrible! So plain and boring! It got me depressed because well, it sucked.

La Tele My favorite new show:
Queer Eye For the Straight Guy That show is so much fun to watch. I watched I think it was last week's episode, (I'm not sure, it was a repeat) but anyways this guy was going to ask his girlfriend to marry him...it made me so nervous because the guy was a nervous wreck! And for sure it seemed the girlfriend was going to say but no...but she said yes. Maybe she felt real pressure from the cameras? But she said: "Nothing would make me happier." So I dunno? Maybe she needed a couple seconds to get off the shock.
Haha. I saw ads for the show but I didn't think much of it. But
Sarah said it was such a funny show so of course, I had to watch! She's getting me sucked into reality televison. Last week I only saw like 10 minutes of NBC's show,
The Restaurant but it got me hooked. The owner was such an ass...haha. I have to watch the next episode (it starts in an hour and a half!)
The WB pushed back
Fearless. Do they hate me or something? Most midseason shows don't last! Maybe, hopefully, it'll do a
Buffy.
At first I was skeptic of Rachael Leigh Cook playing Gaia but I saw a little mini preview and she did a good job. I like her new hair do (bangs!). Everyone is going to think that this show is just a rip-off of
Alias, of course even though the book series it's based on came out a couple years before. Man, this show was supposed to be my new "beginning". My new sort of
Roswell. My acceptance of new drama tv shows. It's sort of good though that it's pushed back. This way I can focus on my studies. (I'm serious!)
Joey is getting his own show! I don't know what you think but to me this seems like a bad idea. Well, first of all it completely limits what the series finale of
Friends will be. It means that in the end, the original six won't be together. They'll part their separate ways, which will be a very sad ending. Plus, it completely takes the question out of who Rachael is going to end up with. I mean, Jennifer Aniston for sure is not going to go on
Joey. She's going to be with Ross! Yay! But it just sucks because they won't just end the show with a happy moment, they'll end it with their
friendship ending!
Well, I'm off to see
This Time Around again. I've seen la tele movie 2 times but I've never seen the 1st 30 minutes! It's a pretty good movie. Carly Pope is so great in it! The ABC Family channel is so much fun.
The Brendan Leonard Show is so funny! I'm still confused about how that show came to be. I wonder if it's that show where people entered to make their family into a sitcom. It probably is...I can't wait to watch
See Jane Date! (w/ Charisma Carpenter!) I want to read the book. Maybe I can squeeze it in. Ok, I better go. It starts in 5 minutes!
