Busy-ness, not business

This week has been pretty hectic.
School is back in our schedule and I think everyone is getting used to it. With tests and pop quizzes coming at us in every direction, junior year has been chaotic. I don't think I've ever been this grateful for the weekend.
This week, I managed to have two physics pop quizzes and a physics test, to finish my articles for my school's newspaper (Science Survey) by the Hard Copy Deadline, go to PSAT prep classes three times after-school, and juggle homework with SAT prep homework.

Now, enough with my complaining. I'm here to share a very precious website that's very near and dear to me. This website has helped me relaxed in more ways than one. I've discovered other artists and songs and unlike imeem, this website does everything with you. All you've got to do is just insert your favorite artist's name.
Visit pandora!
I suggest the Feist radio and the Strokes radio. Have fun!

Some pictures to share

Isn't the view just lovely? This was during the 2008 Cherry Blossom Festival in Brooklyn Botanical Gardens.


& of course, my favorite show, Gossip Girl. Isn't this photo amazing? I love the candidness.

I'm in love!

My friend, Sion, introduced me to this French actor, Gaspard Ulliel. Of course, I wasn't personally introduced; she showed me some pictures. I think I'm in love! :)

Premieres *MAJOR SPOILERS*

I watched "Gossip Girl" and "One Tree Hill" on Monday and "90210" on Tuesday.
Gossip Girl:
I thought the premiere was awesome. I was glad to see my favorite guy, Ed Westwick. I'm ecstatic that Dan and Serena get back together. Pretty disappointed that Chuck couldn't admit his love for Blair (but that really doesn't matter because I love watching their relationship), but Ed Westwick was very convincing when it came to the scene where he tries to stop Blair from leaving. I'm pretty happy about everything except for Nate doing the nasty-nasty with a cougar. The episode seemed to end really quickly, and that's a good thing because that means the episode kept me totally unaware of the time.

One Tree Hill:
While watching the premiere, my jaw was open the whole time. It wasn't because the episode was bad, it was because it was...violent. The nanny returns and she becomes crazy. She takes her revenge out on Dan by torturing him endlessly. I was so surprised when I found out that the "hospital room" was actually in the nanny's HOUSE.
I'm very happy that Lucas chose Peyton to marry. I really didn't think Lindsey was good for him.
Brooke's mom is back and she is crazy as well. I couldn't believe how the episode ended. It was horrific. I saw the preview for the next episode and I can't believe how much Brooke was hurt. I'm kind of scared to watch the next episode. I don't think my mom will let me even watch it, due to the violence.

90210:
"The show that defined a generation..."
"The most anticipated show on television..."
I was watching 90210 with my mom and I agree with every point she made.
The show was a complete disaster. The show seemed really dim (as in the lighting). Some characters look WAY old. Naomi looked like a grandma compared to a teenager. I can't believe she wore polka dots with pearls. Seriously, WHO DOES THAT?!
The main character's body is disproportional. She had huge hair and a puny body.
The guys are kind of...boring. Plus, they aren't that good-looking.
Gossip Girl is so much better than this show. In GG, the girls look like they eat regularly. They have awesome fashion sense and they look their age. Compared to the boys in 90210, the guys in GG each have a unique style, rather than 90210's T-shirt and hoodie uniform that each guy seems to wear.
90210 was a complete disappointment. It totally didn't live up to expectations and the original is way better. And some scenes were downright disgustingly inappropriate.
