Wedding Fever

*drumroll please*

Ahem. Ladies and Gentlemen, the time has come. 

The ROYAL WEDDING is in less than 24 hours!!!

Can you tell I have some serious wedding fever? 

I haven't decided if I want to wake up at 3am to watch the festivities (3am my time in the US but 11 am in the UK) or if I want sleep. But then again, I'm in college so who really needs sleep anyways?

I was obsessed with Princess Diana (and really the whole princess lifestyle) when I was little, but I had a very idealized version of what the 'princess life' is.

I thought it was all dazzling jewels and fabulous ballgowns - that there was no work involved. But a recent article on Yahoo! listed the 10 things Kate Middleton can no longer do once she marries Wills tomorrow - and it got me thinking. Would I really want to be a true life princess?

Here are the 10 things Kate can't do once she is married tomorrow:

1) Be referred to as Kate.

2) Vote.

3) Run for political office.

4) Escape the scrutiny of the media and British public.

5) Play Monopoly.

6) Say or do anything controversial.

7) Eat shellfish.

8) Work.

9) Sign anything that is not official documentation.

10) Finish her dinner.

The whole article (and the explanations of each point) is located here - http://uk.royalwedding.yahoo.com/blogs/ten-things-kate-cant-do-once-she-marries-wills-1583.

Would you want to be royalty? Tell me your thoughts!

"show me hateful!!" - jack mcfarland

If I had to pick one lifelong obsession, it would definitely be Will and Grace. I have many all time favorite tv shows (That 70's Show, The Big Bang Theory, Friends), but if I had to pick one it would definitely be this show.


The show, in my opinion, is absolutely timeless. I've seen all eight seasons at least fifteen times, and every time I watch it I'm surprised by how much it makes me laugh. Every character has a very specific role and every character is relatable, and shine in different episodes throughout the series. Oftentimes I wish I could go back in time and watch the show when in aired (1998 - 2006), but when it started I was only six years old.

As a journalism student working toward a career in entertainment news and writing, I have been following the four stars in their years past the show. But more than anything I would love for a Will and Grace reunion to occur, whether just in interview form (how cool would it be to be the interviewer for that???) or in the style of the actual show.

Anyways, that's just a quick tid-bit about me, for whoever you are.

New Directions

GOOD AFTERNOON! (or morning, evening, for wherever you are)
I'm having a fabulous day! I hope yours is going great as well!


Anyways....


I'm going to be doing something a little different on this blog from now on. Previously I was focused mostly on relationships, boys, etc. But, it has been pointed out to me that posts like that follow a typical pattern. I want this blog to relate to you specifically, whoever you are. 


SO,


What do you want to read about? What are you interested in? Is there something happening in the world today that you want more information on? Is there anything you've always wanted to know but been to scared to ask?


If you're out there, leave me a comment, follow me, send me a message, anything. Let me know what it is you want to see. If not I will just ramble on about what I find important in the world today.
