day 3.142

what i love (this week)

the song

in this week's lackluster episode of glee there was a shining moment: quinn and rachel's mash-up duet of "i feel pretty/unpretty." the duo's solemn take on the tlc song (one of my favorites) proved the episode's message of "be yourself" better than the finale number to gaga's "born this way." i can't get enough of this mash-up, especially with the rainy weather i've been having. nothing's better for a rainy day than a 90's r&b ballad (ok, a lot of things probably are, but i'm going to stick with it).

the movie

i'm not ashamed to say i still watch every disney channel original movie. ok, i'm a little bit ashamed, but i accept it. the latest movie, lemonade mouth, is far from a good (or even entertaining movie), but the soundtrack is what gets me. i couldn't help myself from re-watching the performances on my dvr, especially the rap solo on this song.

the show

the best show you're not watching. the end.

the look

i mean, i had to.

day 3.140

history's been made

day 3.139

it's coming...

day 3.135

what i love (this week)

the song

bruno mars, "the lazy song." i've been obsessed with this song since i first heard mars' full album. it's the perfect song for, well, a lazy day.

the movie

in a recurring theme, i happen to be watching this movie while i type this blog post. lifetime's william & kate delivers all you expect in a lifetime movie - bad acting, a predictable plot and that "i can't put my finger on it" factor that keeps you glued to the screen. plus, it's royal wedding week! what would my blog be without a reference to the impending nuptials between the real william and kate?

the show

it's no secret i love glee (though, i refuse to be labeled a "gleek"). while this half of season 2's been a bit of a disappointment, next week's gaga-centric episode looks like it will put me back in good graces with glee. kurt returns to mckinley. zises runs for prom queen. and we get an extra 30 minutes.

the look

ok, this is cheating a little bit, since it's a movie trailer, but here's my rationalization. i love emma stone. the way emma stone looks in the help cracks me up, and makes me even more excited to see this movie - but, first, i need to read the book. god, i have too many books to read.
