if you haven't seen the series finale of gossip girl yet, you probably don't want to read this...

because only gossip girl (or dan) could have said it better.....

"the upper east side was like something from fitzgerald or fackeray. teenagers acting like adults. adults acting like teenagers. guarding secrets, spreading gossip, all with the trappings of truly opulent wealth. and membership in this community was so elite, you couldn't even buy yourself in. it was a birth right."

and maybe thats why i loved it. and that mixed with my obsessive tend to latch onto any show, book, movie, or form of entertainment, meant that it was meant to be. and it was a fun ride. one, no doubt, that i'll probably relive time and again.  

because you know you love me. 

xoxo.

but lets be real. it was all because j showed it to me. so thanks j. now let's watch smallville next.

spotted:

j and el rolling into small college town for another round of school. don't let this suburban fool you, these girls come with class. they may be cutting it short, but doesn't everyone know-its always fashionable to arrive late.

things currently consuming my life

and this tunnel vision doesn't seem to make me notice anything else. 

packing. 

here we come small college town!!

gossip girl. 

i stated that i would finish all the seasons before j got here.

and i'm holding true. 

it conveniently speeds along said packing processes

and i've become so enthralled with the glamour and drama, 

that this isn't just a promise kept anymore. its back to obsession.

junk food. 

said packing also has caused a small and rather non-existant food routine.

and you're not even seeing the sweet tarts, peanut m&ms, and pints of soda that have 

also covered the carpet of my bedroom floor. 

lately...

gossip girl. obviously.

its official. i hate juliet. she's a crazy psychopath who is worse 

than her dirty rotten brother in jail could ever be. 

S is definitely not crazy-she may have a few issues, but honestly, not enough to be committed. 

what the heck is up with B and chuck?? can't they just get together again already?

little j has GOT to go. but i do give her props for confessing to blair. 

i can't believe the monster vanessa has turned into. to think i used to like her...

i knew i always liked dan. there were moments when i thought he was horrid,

but he really redeemed himself lately. too bad serena is his step sibling...

if you ever wondered if i had a bit of an obsessive streak in my body, 

this post would probably answer that for you. 

anyone else want to chat about the fourth season? 

give me a call. 

xoxo, 

gossip girl

bahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

valentines day: upper east side style

i was one of those cliched cookie dough-eating, love-hating girls on valentines day.  the self torture and bitterness was washed down with a sorrowful viewing of the vow and several rounds of shots (martinelli's that is).  

and while maybe one day i'll actually spend valentines day with someone, for now, i prefer the sassy remarks and gossip girl imitations with my best friend. you can call us S and B. 

yes, its true

I have an obsessive personality. When I see a movie and I like it a lot, i'll see 4, maybe 5 more times. i find a new cookie, i buy two boxes and eat them until they're gone. i hate myself and i love myself. because of this embarrassing but totally true trait, i have learned to just stay away from certain things. tanning-i would become a doritto. mountain dew-a caffeine addict. and consequently, i choose not to start new tv programs, or else, well....it will consume my time with the rest of my tv shows. and yet, this past weekend, it happened.
The slow but sure strain of realizing that you've become addicted to yet another tv show.

Step 1: the first step undoubtedly, was the fact that i ACTUALLY wanted to watch another episode and then it got real when i learned from jace that it was 3 am.  yikes, there went 7 hours of my night.

Step 2. next, my embarrassment for having anything to even do with the show changed and i admitted that i enjoyed watching the darn thing. ok, maybe i straight up said i loved it.

Step 3. it then got a bit more serious when i had a dream about it and woke up thinking of the next possible time i could begin to watch it that day

Step 4. i accepted the fact that i loved it a bit too much after i started crying when lonely boy left S...and when i started speaking in the shows catchy nicknames and terms. it was just too much

Step 5. and then there's full fledged obsession when i began talking about the characters and their inherent lives and problems, as if they are real people and i can help them out with my advice. that was fun...ny.

other signs of current obsession for yes.........




gossip girl. thank you jacelyn mariah for getting me hooked on yet another tv series. yes, i used to make fun of you, but i guess you were right. it is fabulous. i take back all those countless times i teased you for obsessing over gossip girl.
