Top 5 Tv Heartbreaks.

Ok so every show unless it's some little kids show always has one scene usually a break up in which one character just gets completely smacked in the face and the viewers go Oh my god. As I chose these i realized that 2 of them are from Glee and the rest are all from shows on the CW. I guess Glee and the CW are really good with break ups lol. Before I tell you my top 5 there's two other things I need to say. One is that I actually haven't watched The Vampire Diaries or Gossip Girl in a while, Gossip girl because it started getting boring, and The Vampire Diaries because I usually watch NBC on thursday night, so when i talk about relationships I'll probably talk about up to where i stopped watching. Also I tried to find videos of all these scene but all of the ones i found except for the gossip girl video are fan made videos so they aren't exactly how they aired originally. Here are my top 5 Tv Heartbreaks:

1. Chuck & Blair - Gossip Girl - Chuck and Blair were the couple I think everybody wanted to get together, because they were both perfect together because they were the evil, but witty couple. In the end of season 1 it almost looked like they were going to get together but they don't, and that plays a major part in the first couple of episodes in season 2. I feel like  Chuck's dads death plays a pretty important role in their relationship. The Heartbreak comes when Chuck leaves the party after the funeral, and Blair chases after him to tell him her true feelings. Of course she decides to do this when Chuck's drunk, depressed, and upset so he breaks her heart :http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tvZoOjIlqA. This heart break doesn't last very long because in the next episode she stops him from killing himself, and he apologizes to her.

2. Katherine & Damon - The Vampire Diaries-Damons been in love with Katherine ever since she turned him into a vampire in the 1860's. The reason he returns to Mystic falls is to release Katherine but she's not there. Damon kind of falls in love with Elena who looks a lot like Katherine and who is in love with Damon's brother Stefan. Katherine eventually returns to Mystic Falls and often poses as Elena. In the first episode in season two Damon ask Katherine if she ever loved him and she tells him no she only loved Stefan: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8C0L9a1amA. This causes a lot of negativity with Damon who gets drunk and goes to Elena's house who also tells him she only loves Stefan, so he gets angry and almost kills Elena's brother Jeremy.

3. Baze and Cate - Life Unexpected - Baze got Cate pregnant when they were in high school and hadn't really talked to her until their sixteen year old daughter Lux comes back into their lives because she wants emancipation from foster care, instead the judge gives Cate and Baze joint custody. Their relationship starts out rocky and they often don't get along. One main reason for the tension between them is that Cate is engaged to her coworker Ryan. Early on in the show Ryan and Cate break up and Cate and Baze hook up. Then Ryan and Cate get back together and Baze starts to realize that he has feelings for Cate. After a while Cate starts to realize that she has feelings for Baze too. In the season 1 finally they get full custody of Lux. Lux tells Cate that Baze still has feelings for her, and Cate goes and asks Baze if he loves her and he says no even though he does, so Cate decides to get married to Ryan. In the end Baze decides to tell her he loves her and drives to wedding hoping to get their in time the real depressing/ heartbreaking part is starts around 1:06 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuu06dbQ4YI&feature=fvw.

4. Finn& Quinn - Glee-  Finn and Quinn started out as the stereotypical popular couple him being the quarterback and her being head cheerleader. In episode four Quinn tells Finn that she's pregnant and he's the father. We soon find out that his best friend Puck is actually the father, but Quinn doesn't want to tell Finn the truth. Rachel eventually figures out and tells Finn and this is what follows:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wum9BWFV_I

5. Jesse and Rachel - Glee - Were the viewers knew that Jesse wasn't the best guy for Rachel she was definitely in love with him. He was a theater kid, good looking, and could sing. I think i knew the relationship was doomed when they decided to keep it secret because he was a member of the opposing glee club, and when he switched over to  McKinley. The scene i chose was so sad, and made everybody hate Jesse, but you can kind of tell by watching this clip that he's hesitant and he still kind of seems to have feelings for Rachel:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyqGROKSBRg&feature=related

Favorite Books I've read for school

One of my favorite hobbies is reading! I'm normally reading at least two books at the same time if not three! I guess another thing that makes me different from a lot of typical high school students is that if a teacher assigns us a book to read I normally enjoy reading it! Here are some of my favorite books I've read in school over the past couple of years:

1. To Kill a Mockingbird - I read this book in both 7th grade an 9th grade. It is one of my favorite books of all time. I own probably about 3 different copies of it including a copy signed by Harper Lee. I love the story and how interesting the characters are. I've also seen the movie and even though I like the movie they take out some of the best parts. Another thing I really like about it is that when reading it in a class it can help create some pretty interesting conversations, half of my freshman lit class created an argument about how Tom Robinson might actually be guilty.

2. The Outsiders - I read this in 8th grade, it was one of my favorite books i had read in a long time. I keep on wanting to buy it every time i go to a bookstore but something always stops me i don't know why. It's another book with extremely interesting characters and good twist and turns along the way. 

3. Short Stories - Ok so this isn't technically a book, but in every english class i take for some reason we always read at least three short stories. Back in middle school we had to read The Tell Tale Heart which inspired me to go check out a book of Edgar Allen Poe Short stories. I like the creepy short stories not like boring nothing happens short stories. Some of my favorite short stories are The Lottery by Shirley Jackson, The Most Dangerous Game by Richard Connell, Twirler by Jane Martin and The Yellow Wall Paper by Charlotte Perkins Gillman. 

4. Lord of The Flies - I read this in 10th grade were it isn't my favorite book it is pretty interesting. I like all the contrast between the characters. I also liked all the symbolism I really like books with a lot of symbolism because they cause you to think. I mean i guess my main reason for disappointment with this book is that all that I heard about it wasn't actually true so I was expecting a lot to happen that didn't actually happen. 

5. The Lovely Bones - I'm reading this currently, and it is probably my favorite book i've read this year. I'm only partway through and it's one of the those books that makes you want to keep reading even though the chapters after the first chapter are kind of slow. I really like the story line and how she's watching everybody, i also like how i feel like it's easy to relate with the characters.

You can also buy it in store but it's pretty expensive. One thing i love about OPI besides their beautiful colors are that their nail polishes aren't just red they all have really creative names. I remeber the first bottle i ever owned was a purple sparkly color from the broadway collection called Thoroughly Modern Millie. Here are my five favorite names for OPI nail polish:

1.Glitzerland ( a sparkly off white color) - like switzerland!
2.Ladies and Magenta - men ( bright magenta)
3.Bling Dynasty ( Gold)

Favorite Types of shoes

Today I am going to talk about my favorite types of shoes, one way i differ from the stereotypical girl is that i don't have an obsession with shoes. I remember I was on a trip with my church and we were supposed to count how many shoes i brought and all the other girls brought like 5 or 6, and i think i brought 3. My main thing is that my shoes have to be comfortable, i can't really wear heels without spraining my ankle. so here are my list of my top 5 favorite types of shoes:

1. Flip Flops - i probably own three types of flip flops which is funny because i used to not be able to stand flip flops because I hated the thing that goes between your toes. My favorite pair of flip flops I own are my Reebok shape up flip flops. There incredibly comfortable! One of the downsides to flip flops is that if you wear them all the time you get the flip flop tan line. Also where i live it starts getting cold around mid - september.

2. Uggs- This is another seasonal shoe, i love them in the winter& fall but any other time i just think it's weird when I see people wearing them, especially with shorts. I love how incredibly warm they are, but sometimes they look really bad when I tuck them into my boots. I like the plain colored uggs because then you don't have to worry if they match with something.

3. Tom's - I just got my first pair of Tom's over the summer and I love them. I have the plain black ones so they go with anything, and i wear them with practically anything, because their so comfortable! I also think that it's really cool that if you buy a pair they give a pair to a kid who doesn't have any shoes. I'm hoping to get more in the future including the sparkly ones!

4. Tennis Shoes - I used to walk to school so tennis shoes were an important part of my shoe closet. But now since my life has gotten more busy and I'm driving everywhere i probably haven't put on a pair since september. My current pair of tennis shoes are Reeboks Shape Ups which i guess is technically designed for walking. Which is good because I walk a lot but i also feel like i want running shoes now ....

5. Keens - even though Keens aren't the most trendy shoe around they are pretty comfortable and, handy. They are good for hiking, they look like a sandal, and their water shoes. I actually used to wear my Keens more than the average person would because of all of the above. I don't know where my keens are right now but when i find them I'm definitely going to start wearing them again.

what are your favorite shoes? tell me in the comments below!

My Top 5 questions Lost Never Answered.


I am/was a huge Lost fan, but i was really disappointed by the series finales last spring. Last night after I had finished my homework, and was to tired to do anything else, I started watching videos on http://www.collegehumor.com/ when i came across this one http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1936291. As I was watching them I was thinking to myself this is incredibly true, and was inspired to write this blog post. So here are my Top 5 questions that lost never answered:

1.Why were people having fertility issues on the island? - this is probably one of the biggest questions on the show that was never answered. I mean Juliet was even brought to the island to help with this! And did the show ever explain how Claire was able to have Aaron on the island, without either of them dyeing? I think maybe they did and it was because she got pregnant off the island....




2.Why was Walt so special? - In season one he seemed to have some type of magical power, because there was the one time he was reading the comic book with the Polar Bear in it and all of sudden Polars bears started appearing on the island. I don't think the others wanted him just because he was a kid. Then in season 2 when he gets abducted by the others ( i don't think they wanted him just because he was a kid!) he could some how communicate with Michael through the computer, and Shannon ( and maybe some other characters I dk) kept on having those creepy visions of him. The eventually he gets off the island, and we see him a couple episodes in seasons 3,4,5,6 and he's aged like 4 years and doesn't really say anything that special. 


3.What was up with the Numbers - The numbers played such a important part of the show, they were the reason Hurley was even on the plane, They had to type them into the computer in the hatch. They were everywhere in this show (http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/The_Numbers). One website I read said that the only answer viewers got was how the numbers corresponded with the numbers that the final six candidates had by their names on the cave wall) . But i say that is not a good answer.


4. Why can Jacob leave the island but the Smoke Monster can't? - this is actually a pretty good question. Is it because Jacob is supposedly "Good" and the Smoke Monster is like "Evil."? Really the only answer I can think about it is that he was looking for Candidates even way in the past, because he first came into some of the characters decades before they were even on the flight. It still doesn't make sense. 


5. What was with Kate and the Horse? - we know why the horse is significant to Kate, it helped her escape from the marshal, so obviously it is important to her but, i still have questions about it like "why did it keep on showing up?" was it the smoke monster?
