Just finished watching GG 1x02. There were many things I loved about it, but I was a lot less squee-y. I feel like I should be proud of that. Also, I still can't get over the perfectness of that sequence in 1x01 wth JT's "What goes around comes around"

That scene with Chuck and Jenny, when they start kissing (before it gets ugly)? Makes me really glad that they hired a 14-year-old actress to portray a 14-year-old kid. It was... the most painfully realistic thing I've seen on TV.

(And then I have some thoughts about Blair, and her being a control freak, and Serena. Because with Blair, it all comes ( Read more... )

OK. First "official" Gossip Girl post. I'm kinda nervous, because for the first time I really want to watch something without caring about what other people have already said about it. But on the other hand, I already have a constructed idea of what GG is as *ahem* a piece of art and I basically don't want it to suck to be wrong.

So, my GG marathon is about to start. In fact, I kinda watched the first five minutes of 1x01 last night (and I have like 20 different things to comment on already!!! Dammit, show!!!).

Oh my. I am ashamed to say that I am totally and completely obsessed in love with Gossip Girl. To the point where I want to write this HUGE meta that I have already rehearsed in my head a thousand times. And I've only seen *one* whole episode (which was Bad News Blair, 1x04 I think)! But. The first time, I caught the end of 1x03 Poison Ivy. I was ( Read more... )

Season of discovery: I just found out that Stephenie Meyer (Twilight, New Moon) is an active-LDS BYU-graduate!

That does not endear me more to the story (no, really!), which I meant to read sooner or later (later, probably, since I thought there was no way I could lay my hands on those books round here). My faith in the series had started to falter ( Read more... )

Something weird just happened. I just found out someone I know in RL has an LJ =>

I can't believe I'm wasting time getting spoiled for HP!DH while Resident Evil is on, with Milla Jovovich being all sorts of pretty and Michelle Rodriguez being hot and surprisingly vulnerable.

On a sadder note, Roberto Fontanarrosa died yesterday. And today? Today I just feel sorry for the rest of the world, who didn't know him.

"A curious sensation of terror came over me. I knew that I had come face to face with some one whose mere personality was so fascinating that, if I allowed it to do so, it would absorb my whole nature, my whole soul, my very art itself."
