i want to be amy adams.
I love Amy Adams so much. She was brilliant in Enchanted and I can't wait to see Mrs. Pettigrew! But I don't know what they were thinking at the Oscars.
Enchanted was nominated THREE TIMES for best song, and for some unknown to me reason, they chose Kristin Chenoweth to sing the best song in the movie.
Not cool..
Don't get me wrong, I ADORE Cheno. She's amazing and a total sweetheart. But I would have been much much happier if they had had Amy sing "That's How You Know" and Cheno sing "Happy Working Song", actually I would have been happiest if Amy sang both, but it's understandable that they wouldn't do that.
Anyway, see for yourself if you missed it.
Oh. And Miley Cyrus? So jealous of that girl. Love her to death, but grrrr...
thank you. *leaves soapbox*

let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!
So this morning I woke up to a very foggy looking sight out my window on the 30th floor. As I looked closer, the tops of the other buildings were covered in snow, and lots of it! It was also snowing pretty hard and I really didn't want to crawl out of bed for my 4 hour and 20 minute art class with Mr. Monotone as I like to call him.
Waiting for the bus I got a little wet, but with my nice North Face coat, I stayed relatively warm. I zoned out for pretty much the entire class, looking out the window, watching the snow. It was gorgeous and made me think. But that's all for another blog :)
Anyway, when I finally got out of class at 2:20 they announced they were closing the school at 3 because it was supposed to be sleet and freezing rain after 4pm. It had stopped snowing at that point, but I was shocked when I got outside and saw this:
Yeah.
For Colorado, this wouldn't be much. But this is the most I have experienced in NYC yet. And I love it! :)
I'm just sad that I have to go to work tonight instead of going to Central Park for a snowball fight...

for my mother.
My mom has told me several times that she wants to see a picture of my boyfriend and I. Since there were only 2 or 3 in existence until Valentine's Day, none of which were too great, I didn't show her any.
But *drumroll please* now, for your viewing entertainment, a picture! Valentine's Day Central Park carriage ride, which was actually HIS idea! :)

last night i had a dream...
WARNING: I have just been told that this dream was "on crack". And I don't really disagree haha...
Okay so I was at some CD store, it was like Virgin in Times Square, but set up differently inside. Anyway, there were a bunch of people browsing when I went inside and I noticed that one of the guys from Legally Blonde was right by me. So for some reason I had brought some of my CDs, including that one, and had him sign it. Then I kept just going down the line because they were all Broadway people, and apparently they had made "Juno" a musical because the girl I talked to a little later looked exactly like Ellen Page but had a lot of acne and said she was on Broadway in Juno. So anyway, I don't know exactly what happened next but either my friend Kelly showed up and Sutton Foster was at the store too or we were going to see YF or going to talk to Sutton or something, but Sutton asks us if we could fill in for two of the ensemble parts because we each fit in the costumes of the girls who apparently weren't there or something. Well we went into the dressing rooms and Sutton and one other girl were helping us get the costumes together and telling us when we wear each costume, somehow we learned the choreography(?) and then she gave me blue pointe shoes, which miraculously fit perfectly, only after I put them on, I realized that I didn't have any toe pads (ouch!) because I was a little distracted with this weird costume (which was nothing like YF, more like something that could be in the Producers on crack) and so I was asking if they had extra toe pads and they just gave me some sorry looks and told me not to worry about it and that the other girls will scream at us while we are dancing to let us know where to go.
Um. Okay.
Sutton was sweet though haha...
But that's my dream. Wonder if it means anything...

SPICE UP YOUR LIFE!!!
Yesterday was the best day of my life thus far. Waking up with my boyfriend away from all dorm drama, hanging out for a few hours, and then *drumroll please* the SPICE GIRLS REUNION CONCERT AT MADISON SQUARE GARDEN!!!
I know most of the people there who were around my age were fans when they were about 8. I became a fan when they disappeared. So my experience was probably a little different, but we can all agree that this concert was two words:
LIFE CHANGING.
Yep. I am really glad that I didn't go to a Spice Girls concert back in the day because I wouldn't have appreciated it nearly as much. I went to 2 N'Sync concerts, which were my true obsession and if they ever do a reunion tour *prays that they will one day*, that will top this. But for now, even after seeing some truly phenomenal concerts, this tops them all.
I am so surprised I can talk right now because I screamed and sang as loud and as long as anyone else in MSG and even though we were sort of far away from the actual stage, the GIRL POWER was so amazing that I could feel it through every inch of my body :)
I'll post pictures once I steal Kelsie's, because her camera takes much better pictures of concerts than mine does.

why hello there...
Well I decided to jump on the bandwagon and get a blogger. Way to be a conformist, I know. Oh well. Basically this is where I will be posting random thoughts, stories, and of course, links to crazy youtube videos or random other shiznit that I happen to come across on the web.
.jmm.
Check back soon. I promise I'll try to be interesting. :)
