I Want You To Want Me

So this week's list is on celebrity crushes over my entire lifetime! It was hard to pick only 5 because I think there are a million celebs that are attractive in general whether it be their good lucks, witty attitude, their uncontrollable sense of humor or just their boyhood charm. However, I managed to narrow it down to a top 5 of all time (going from #5 to #1 ... however 1 and 2 might be a tie). Here's my list!!

#5. The ever famous JTT [aka Jonathon Taylor Thomas]
JTT spent his childhood charming teens and tweens across the country. I know I used to write I [heart] JTT all over EVERYTHING I owned that I could get away with writing on! I'm 100% positive I wasn't the only girl using my gel pens to scribble out those 3 letters whenever I got a chance!


#4. Will Smith [Mr. Fresh Prince]
I've loved Will since his Fresh Prince days. I'm not sure if it's sense of humor, good looks or charming perosnality. I'd say it's the whole package. Even in his older age the Fresh Prince will still always remain on my top 5!

#3. Leonardo Dicaprio!
I have to admit I swore of being in love with good ol Leo in his Jack Dawson days. I refused to make myself part of the fad. But now that Leo and I have both gracefully aged =) I think he is great! There is never a bad movie he stars in (even Titanic). His good looks don't hurt either!

#2. Matthew McConaughey
Am I aloud to say I'm mostly just in love with his voice. I do find him incredibly attractive as well but that voice drives me ccccraaaaazy!!!! I've been in love with Mr. McConaughey since as long as I can remember. I've dreamed of being Kate Hudson, Cameron Diaz, Sarah Jessica Parker, Jennifer Garner or anyone else that has had the opportunity to hear his voice for countless hours while filming. And for the record if I would have been on the jury in A Time To Kill, I would have swooned over Attorney Briggance's speeches and testimonies!!



#1. Finally, Heath Ledger!

Heath will always always always be the man whether he was creeping his way around Gotham City as the Joker or spending his days charming Kat. All of Heath's movies will be my favorite and I think that the big screen was lucky to have such a talented man fulfilling so many leading roles.

Just to see you smile


So this is Kyle. We've been together for almost 6 1/2 years, seems like FOREVER! Anyway, that's not what my post is about.

It seems like Kyle hasn't seen any good movies!! His friends can quote every movie ever made. So I've decided that for the next however many weeks it takes, I plan to make him watch all of the movies I find hilarious. Most of the movies are with Seth Rogen, Jonah Hill, Paul Rudd, Jason Segel, etc. ... that whole crew of comedic actors. Here is my list so far. I'm always looking for more comedy suggestions though!

1. The Ugly Truth
2. Knocked Up
3. Superbad
4. 40 Year Old Virgin
5. I Love You Man
6. Role Models
7. Pineapple Express (even though he's already seen it, it's always a good one to rewatch)
8. Forgetting Sarah Marshall
9. Anchorman
10. Ok I have no 10th movie (I'd love a suggestion though) I just needed a #10 to my list

Well that's all I have so far, hopefully I can come up with some more. I'm excited to start Sunday movie night! I suppose I will blog about each movie after we watch them.

UPDATE: I purchased Talladega Nights on ebay for less than a dollar thanks to Megan's suggestion! There's only a few more on my list that I actually need to buy (Role Models, Pineapple Express, I Love You Man) hopefully I'll win those bids on ebay for less than a dollar too! Let Sunday movie nights begin!!!

Let It Be

So it's getting close (well 2 months close) to BONNAROOOOOOO again!!! I cannot wait! For those that don't know, Bonnaroo is a 4 day music festival that you camp out at. Basically, you spend 4 days with 10,000 of your closest friends enjoying the outdoors, drinking beer, looking at all kinds of different art projects, focus on going green, and appreciate a ton of great music! Last year we spent the entire time just enjoying life. There were no strict schedules, no electronics or technology, just us and the outdoors. This year has a great line-up including Jay Z, Weezer, Miranda Lambert, Zac Brown Band AND OF COURSE Conan O'Brien!! Did I mention that I was pumped?!?!?

In the spirit of the giant hippie fest that is Bonnaroo, here are some inspiration pictures for my trip!

Tonight we're gonna party like it's 1999


The other day at work we were talking about classic things, toys, styles, tv shows, etc. So we decided for the next list to do a list of childhood favorites! Even though I was born in the 80's, I was predominantly a 90's kid and I LOVED my childhood (even my mullet phase shown below this post). I am an only child but I always found ways to entertain myself and I always wanted friends to come to my house to play because I thought I always had all the cool stuff!

So here's to the 90's!!!
1. My Tired Tom Doll [I have no idea what the original name of this doll was but to this day I still have mine and I was even able to find a new one on ebay that I bought just so I could have an original maybe to give to my child?] Tired Tom
2. Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen [I LOOOOVED old Mk&A ... not so much now]
3. Beauty and the Beast [best Disney movie EVER]
4. Lisa Frank anything [but especially folders and pencils]
5. Spirograph
6. Old Nickelodeon shows [anything from Doug, Rocko's Modern Life, Ah Real Monsters, Salute your Shorts, Are You Afraid of the Dark, All That, old Rugrats pre Kimi, anything with Stick Stickly]
7. Legos
8. Always rocking a topsy tail, even during my mullet phase
11. Babysitters Club
12. Easy Bake Oven
13. Super Nintendo and ANY game that went with it! [Mostly Super Mario World, Mario Kart, Dr. Mario and Zelda]
14. Tomagatchis
15. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
16. The Skip-It contests my best friend and I used to have
17. Eureka's Castle
18. Polly Pockets
19. Mad Libs [I mean I was kind of a nerd, but these things still make me laugh]
20. Magna Doodles

I think that I wouldn't be as happy if I didn't grow up in the 90's. I believe I rocked my childhood!!!

Viva Las Vegas

Well it's been a while since I've blogged! That's because I've been in VEGASSSSS!!!!!! It was so much fun! I'll try and post some pictures in the next couple days. However, I just got a new camera and I'm not sure how much I like it. I think I just need to read the directions and figure it out.

Anyway, while we were there we saw the traveling Price is Right show! Sadly Kyle or I never got called down BUT it was still a blast. We got to yell out numbers and prices to the lucky people that did get called. We also saw the amazing Criss Angel Believe show. It's put on my Cirque du Soleil so we knew it would be awesome. They had creepy dancing rabbits, that was by far my favorite part!

This video is not great quality and it's actually at So You Think You Can Dance, but it's one of the same dances and I love love looove it!

Other than those 2 shows we did lots of walking and just looking around in hotels. You can walk around in the same hotel for hours!

On another note ...Tomorrow is my last day of spring break (well besides the weekend) before I have to go back to work. My lovely BFF newgravy and one of our other friends are going to hunt Atlanta for bubble tea!

I really think none of us have much of an idea what bubble tea is. We just see it a lot and there's lots of flavors to choose from and well it makes for pretty pictures. =) Maybe I can check the web for some suggestions of bubble tea places and flavors to try. Whatever our adventure ends up turning into, I know it'll be fun!!!
Next post will hopefully be my list for the week, it's a fun one that newgravy picked out again so I'm looking forward to making it!
