…Find out if you’re a Hills expert!

(Is it wrong that I got 8 out of 9 questions right? Hehe…)

At first I wasn’t sure I liked how Project Runway ended this season because Rami’s collection was just consistently BEAUTIFUL. I mean stunning craftsmanship, all the while each piece was unique and totally wearable… but then the more I thought about it, the more I realized no one else deserved to win more than Christian. Granted I started watching late in the season but EVERY outfit he made was sooo good. So here’s my list of reasons why Christian Siriano deserved to win this season’s Project Runway:

1. All his final show outfits were androgynous (but had balls) despite the amount of ruffles and big hats there were in his show.
2. He says “fierce” a lot. A LOT.
3. He said: “It’s a party over here (gesturing to the longer part of his hair), business over here (gesturing to the shorter side of his hair), and the money maker right here (gesturing to his face).” AND PULLED IT OFF.

This gives me tingles. I’m SO excited!

So tonight was the season finale of The Hills. While I am sad to see the season end, I’m glad to know that I’ll finally have my Monday nights back. You know, time that I can spend doing… well, doing something more productive than vegetating in front of the TV for 30 minutes.

Heidi finally took off her blinders and saw her relationship for what it really was: a pathetic excuse for another Hollywood marriage. Although at one point, I did feel really bad for poor Spence over there, crying over his latte to his baby sis. So what will become of Sp-eidi now?

And Lauren finally gets to go to Paris, yay! Considering how badly she screwed up the first time, I’m surprised Lisa Love even allowed her to work in the same building.

Also, it kinda looks like Whitney’s withdrawing from the drama that is the Hills. Is it because she realizes she’s on a TV show that, oddly enough, resembles that of a high school lunch cafeteria except with overpriced sushi and googley eyes?

Never fear. All of these get answered next season, which, *gasp*, starts pretty soon! Yay!

Oh wait, no, that’s not good. That means I really *don’t* have my Monday night’s back.

Boooo!

Like an apple on a tree
Hiding out behind the leaves
I was difficult to reach
But you picked me
Like a shell upon a beach
Just another pretty piece
I was difficult to see
But you picked me
Yeah you picked me

I’ve been wanting to get this off my chest for some time. I can’t even believe I’m admitting this in a public forum but…

Yes. I’m an avid watcher of MTV’s The Hills. *cowers*

I’ve been playing catchup on this season’s new episodes this past weekend (God bless tivo). I’m beginning to think that Lauren is the one that’s allowing all the drama in her life. First with Heidi and her dysfunctional relationships. Now it’s with Audrina and her alphabet-burping boy toy Justin Bobby Brown (I added the Brown at the end just because I think it’s appropriate for this cheesehead). My favorite line of the evening: “Homeboy wore combat boots to the beach,” said LC. Fabulous.

But it does look like there’s a lover’s quarrel between boyfriends Spencer and Brody. Is this the new Heidi and Lauren feud for season 3? I’m not sure, we’ll see!

So I was channel surfing this evening when I came across the HBO documentary called White Light, Black Rain: The Destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I caught maybe the last 45 minutes of it, but those 45 minutes have been seared into my memory. This is an amazing documentary that’s worth watching if you have HBO or have a chance to rent/buy the DVD. I’ve always believed that nuclear warfare was bad, but this really drove it home.

But the thing I found about this documentary to be very profound and unlike other documentaries was there was really no good guy, nor were there any bad guys (at least I don’t think this documentary really made it seem that way). There were just victims and the aftermath.

A quote from one of the survivors touched me so deeply that I can still recite it almost verbatim: “There are two kinds of courage: the courage to die, and the courage to live. My sister had the courage to die, but I had the courage to live… Even if I would be alone, I still wanted to live my life.”

I’m glad I stayed up late enough to watch Ice T endorse Tupperware on Conan.

He’s right though. Tupperware is the Original Gangsta.

Thank you Comcast (now Time Warner) for coming into my life.

Ever since this new cable switch my apartment complex has gone through, I’ve been blessed with tons more channels than I had before such as the Style Network, MTV2, and Oh!Oxygen network, home of the blessed Janice Dickenson Modeling Agency.

Ok, did anyone listen to the premier of this song on MTV the other night?

It’s strangely interesting to listen to… It doesn’t even sound like his voice really, but it’s got his style written all over it. I admit, I didn’t like it at first. But then when I heard it a second and third time, it started to sink in. And now I can’t wait for the single to be released on iTunes, nor can I wait for him to break up with that Cameron girl and ask me to have his babies.

Oh man, is it me or is Nick Lachey just always sad and mopey? That MTV special he’s got is… i mean, wow, talk about post divorce documentary. He’s always got this long, depressed gaze. I mean you think it’s a skill they teach you before you make it into a boy band, but this dude is for real. And it’s SAD.
