fishing around for comments on a saturday afternoon...

[rockintheoc]

I gain a lot of amusement and fodder from reading livejournals and blogs and such. I'd say that's a good amount of the time I spend online--besides searching for music/watching movie trailers. I always analyze most of the entries I read, sometimes intentionally, sometimes not. I like to be the outside observer, always have. When I was a kid/

Well, it seems that we have a lot in common. Although, where as you haven't ridden a bike in 10 years, I don't know how to ride a bike at all (you can laugh, it's okay). And I cry so easily also. It's funny; I was just at fanfiction.net and right now, I just finished re-reading your story, "Still Fighting It". And it had be bawling like a baby once again.

Oh, and I so would sleep with Adam Brody and Ryan Gosling as well. Duh.

[rockintheoc]

Wow--you can't ride a bike, huh? Believe me, it's not all it's cracked up to be.

I haven't written/read a story for the longest time, but I'm glad someone out there is still reading it.

I think it's safe to say that most people would sleep with the Brody and the Gosling. It would be unnatural not to want to.

Well thank you for replying/reading even though you don't have an LJ?

NY is one of my favorite cities in the world as well, but I could never live there, I think I would get crazier than I already am. I looove clothing, I'm constantly buying new clothes every week. And oh my god, I love spanish music as well. You should listen to NEK if you haven't yet. Mana is my favorite Spanish group though.

[anonymous]

No, I don't have an LJ, I don't know why really...
However a couple of months ago I ended up reading yours and I'm quite a fan, I have to admit. I think the first post I've read was when you met Adam... I'm not sure but I think so. I love reading randoms and I'm addicted to fanfiction.net (YEAH, TOO MUCH FREE TIME)!!

I love MANA, but... I'm trying different things, my parents speak spanish (that's my background) and so do I, so you know... it's interesting. I'll listen to NEK and then let you know! =)

[rockintheoc]

I always wonder how people find my LJ, I guess a good portion is through ff.net (a lot of people find it from the OC central website, Jen posts my link in their news section), which is cool.

I only have high school spanish under my belt, and I can't really understand it conversationally at all, but I love spanish music because our teacher made us listen to it and make music videos. I also like Soluna and anything by Enrique--the songs are so cheesy, I love it. Nek's Laura No Esta and La Vida Es are my favorites.

[rockintheoc]

I just stopped eating them. I never really liked them all that much, and plus they've got like a thousand calories with cream cheese, but I'm not on any sort of diet, so I don't know why.

[still_shakin]

-i'm a tv geek.
-at the moment i want to be a film maker.
-i love chocolate.
-i wanted to be a football player [soccer] but i quit playing it.
-i hate that people referrs to FOOTball as soccer.

[rockintheoc]

I bet I could rival your TV geekdom; I love every bad sitcom from the 60s on everything from Gilligan's island to Growing Pains. I am a television fanatic, which is sad in a lot of ways.

You know what? I actually don't like chocolate that much especially truffles and "good chocolate". I'll eat a chocolate bar, like a Twix or something, but I don't like Godiva, Ghiradelli, Bodega, etc. I know, it's really weird--it's another quirk of mine.

What about when they refer to it as Futbol?

[still_shakin]

-hehe, i bet u won me. i'm 17 so i didn't get to watch a lot of shows. but i do remember that since i was like 6 or 7 i spent hours and hours watching tv [i know what you mean :S it's sad]. but my fav. ones are: dawson's creek, young americans [dc's spin-off], wasteland, popular, grosse point, friends, charmed [until 3rd season], once and again, the oc [kinda obvious

[rockintheoc]

You didn't have to give any descriptions to the shows, even though I haven't seen some of them, I know about them. I can tell you that Young Americans had Ian Somerhalder (hot) and Kate Bosworth as Bella, and that girl who played a boy to be in the school. I've never seen Wasteland but I know that Brad Rowe and Marissa Ribisi were in it. Grosse Point was the one with the girl from Sabrina the Teenage Witch (Lindsay Sloane I think) about a soap opera cast and the rest of them I've seen some eps here and there.

I loved Popular. Nip/Tuck is by the same creator, Ryan Murphy, so you should check that out.

I like OV7, Cristian, some others, but mostly I listen to english songs that have been sung badly in spanish, like anything by Boyz II Men, Backstreet Boys, Christina, etc.

this stood out to me. probably cuz it's been on my mind forever.
-I got rejected or wait-listed from every Ivy League school I applied to (includes Stanford).

me too. but for me, it's (includes Northwestern). i didn't apply to stanford.

[rockintheoc]

I got into Northwestern, but I'm not there unfortunately. I got into "medical school" instead. That was one of my first choice schools, along with USC. You know how I got in? I wrote my essay on Britney Spears. I'm being dead serious--it was the best college essays I wrote that year and I am extremely proud of it.

Stanford sucks, who wants to go to a school that was started by a man because his son couldn't get into the Ivy Leagues anyways?
