I finally found a full version of my absolute fav song from Neon Hitch to date. It is called Poisoned With Love. Absolutely amazing!
If you didn't know already, I am a super huge fan of Teen Wolf on MTV. I love the show for so many reasons. It has great action, banter, and most of all music. (Okay, I also enjoy being able to look at Dylan O'Brien and Tyler Hoechlin. They are too attractive not to.) Their music selection is great and it has got me listening to some great new artists. The music they choose is what also makes the scenes so much more awesome. One of my favorite songs from the show is We Must be Killers by Mikky Ekko. The other song is from one of the best fight scenes from the show. Hope you enjoy and tune into MTV at 10 EST on Mondays to catch the show!
USA Network's new series "Political Animals" premiered tonight at 10 P.M. EST. I must say that all the hype was well deserved. It was a riveting and well written pilot. It had humor at the most perfect moments and seriousness in a good balance.
At first, I thought this would be a series that would be somewhat of a bio pic of Hillary Clinton's life and marriage.In a way it is true. The main character is a nod in the direction of Hillary Clinton and it is inevitable that those comparisons would be made, but it isn't what the show is about. It is about Elaine Barrish's decision to run for the presidency of the US after her many struggles of being let down by the men in her life. However, it is not just that element.The show also involves much of her personal life from her 32 year marriage to her ex-husband and chronic cheater, Bud Hammond, to TJ, her alcoholic and drug addicted son.
We see her strength and perseverance when those around her fail. She is an amazing leader who is impeccable in politics, but is very flawed and frequently blindsided in her personal life. She is fearless and is willing to cross certain boundaries to do what is right for the country and speak for those that cannot. She is not that power hungry politician that so many resent, but more of a fair and just leader.
I hope that more of this brilliant character is revealed and shown in six episode (yes only six) run. I see Barrish as a strong figure in so many situations. She is strong for those who aren't, for those whom she loves and most of all herself. She is a political animal after all.
Spring break was a blast! Well at least for me. I got to stay home, relax, and catch up on work that I haven't been able to do. Great shows premiered and some ended (for its little hiatus). I feel renewed and like a whole new me. So in lieu of that I've decided it's been long enough and that I should start changing things about myself that I don't like. I have realized that I need to better myself for me and not for others. I should stop looking at change in a bad perspective and that it is good if you want it to be. I am letting go of the past and living life the way I want to and seeing things the way they ought to be.
I had such an amazing weekend. I just got my new car as a birthday present. I'm very grateful for my mother's trust and generosity. She is the best and I couldn't ask for more. I finally drove my car today and it's amazing. I love how it drives and its size. Best gift ever.
So midterms are finally over. I am so pumped. I got one of the highest midterm grades in my history class and it bumped up my grade tremendously. Right now I am trying my best to work even HARDER to bump my final grade to a "B."
This new quarter is going to be a fresh start for everyone right now. A clean slate is just what I need. Even better, this Friday is my school's Mock United Nations event. How awesome is that! I will try to rehash my Mock UN event and tell you if we get an award.
I'm so pumped for tonight's episode of Battle of the Exes. It's the finale and I am totally rooting for Johnny and Camila.
So, this week is the week of midterms. My APUSH (Advance Placement United States History) class is probably the worst. The instructor gave us a 300 question packet asking on subjects/content we never went over in a lecture. What is worst is the fact that it is worth UP to 30 extra credit points! It should be great but the fact is that we don't know the answer and can't find any sites to help really sucks. My study group just left and the four of us couldn't even get through 40 questions in a couple hours. If it tells anyone anything is that my (academic) life sucks right now.
