Gossip Girl Here!

hey tv lovers!
I have a new addiction, move over cafe moca's i have discovered Gossip Girl!

mostly i love the slimy Chuck Bass played by my new boyfriend Ed Westwick!
He is the ultimate Mean Girl! and yummy (in an ogre-ish way)



I justify my love for teen drama's by believing that high school is a time when it is okay to; perpetuate stereotypes, play mind games, and we are all allowed to make mistakes.
Shows about anything else frustrate me because of the ridiculous expectations they portray, and how they allow the rest of society to believe that stereotypes are a reality for adult life. It is inappropriate!


in conclusion Chuck Bass is almost as good as shoes.

Degrassi Talks, but do they Listen?

I
On my eternally long train ride back from Montreal, I was forced to drown out the sound of the irritating children in front of me by listening to episode after episode of You Look Nice Today.
What a funny trio of men. I doubt they'd be to everyone's taste, but I think it's like being invited to hear clever strangers' hilarious inside jokes as they are being created.

In addition to YLNT and the occasional song, I also played an episode of Degrassi Talks! Once again, I find myself wanting updates on the lives of the Real Canadian Teens they interviewed about Real Teen Problems back in the early nineties. Did 16 year old Carole's son turn out okay? Did that guy teaching kids the correct use of condoms die of AIDS? Did the girl who played Spike ever meet her birth parents? Did the girl who'd had so many STDs that she became infertile end up adopting? I need answers! Why are they wasting resources on Degrassi the Next Generation when they could be making Degrassi Talks! Some More to the Same People a While Later

Music

Cailin and I were just looking at this BBC study I am a little confused because I like and listen to all types of music listed. Perhaps the only one I would say I am not a fan of is Reggae. Does that mean that I don't know myself and have all these conflicting personality types? Studies like this are a silly waste of time.

Cailin and I are both in Montreal for the weekend. Hopefully this will mean we will have some interesting things to write about.

like the guy we saw on a bike yesterday. The bike was souped up and and playing Electro music. We also eat Indian food in a Greek neighbourhood.
