there is no option for me to list my favourite tv shows in my profile, so i will take the opportunity now to rank my shows. i love tv.
1. grey's anatomy
this is my favourite right now. mcdreamy is so....dreamy. sigh. i like it when his eyes twinkle when he looks at meredith. the music choices are also extremely befitting and make the drama seem so much better.
2. veronica mars
think CSI meets the o.c. meets gilmore girls. the investigative-ness of CSI (minus all the crime scene investigation, of course) with the drama of the o.c. with the witty banter and pop culture references of gilmore girls. everytime i think about this show, i sing to myself, "veronica mars...i'm watching you...you are my everything" - you will only understand this if you watch the show, especially season one.
3. friday night lights
sooo good! even though it's about football, which i don't like, by the way...although i think it's kind of cute how football players always give each other love pats on the bottom. i digress. on this show, there is the perfect amount of drama (read: lots of drama). AND one of the characters, coach taylor = dylan from grey's anatomy, who got blown up.
honourable mentions:
1. prison break
wentworth miller's brooding is so alluring. they've managed to keep me mostly interested even though they're no longer in prison.
2. lost
i love the hawaiian scenery and makes me want to go back. there are too many questions and not enough answers to make it into my list of favourites.
3. america's next top model
tyra is a little over the top for me, and i did purge myself of reality tv...but i am still fascinated by this show. i don't really have a favourite, but i think melrose will probably win - although eugena seems to be emerging as a dark horse (i'm not racist, it's an expression!)

ready, set, go!
this marks my fifth attempt at maintaining a blog. my most recent attempt at myspace has prompted me to try blogspot, mostly because when i tried to make it look pretty, it did weird things. stupid myspace.
i have this complex about the colour brown. i really like it, but does it resemble the colour of poo too much? especially when it's in a layout that is so very...brown. i may have to tweak the layout but it will work for now.
and considering this is my fifth attempt at an online journal, i hear the fifth time's a charm! i suppose only time will tell. until then, i hope you enjoy my random ramblings. rumiko's random ramblings! awww, i love illiterations. alliterations? whatever.

cupholders: the future of the world!
***this was one of my blogs on myspace...to formalize my switch to blogspot, i figured i would re-post my raptor's experience here, especially because i know there are at least two readers who will take interest...***
i went to my first (nba) basketball game last night! our seats were okay, but it looked like the people in the sprite zone were having a better time than everyone else - they got the blow-up stick thingies that you beat together when you are sitting behind the basket to distract the free-thrower...even though they weren't sitting behind the basket! thus they would have no way to distract the free-thrower! is that even allowed?! they also got t-shirts. clearly we didn't have the right seats.
the "yay, basketball games are fun" moments:
>the beer cups have lids on them so as to avoid spillage. these lids form a spout to drink out of. it's like a sippy cup, but for adults! it almost made canadian taste good. almost.
>we took the go train which was a fun experience that brought back memories of when i didn't have a car.
>free mo pete figurine that i can give to one of my brothers who would it enjoy it more than me.
>i almost got my picture taken with jerome williams. then i remembered that i don't even like basketball or JYD. still, the fact that i could have makes me a little excited.
>i have to admit, basketball is way more exciting to watch live than on tv. and i don't have to hear chuck swirsky, although i was tempted to try to throw things at his shiny head. i didn't.
>raptors won!
the "meh, is it over yet?" moments:
>no cup holders for said beer sippy cup. i guess that's part of the reason why they created them, since there is no holder. i think i've been spoiled by movie theatres and my car and those couches that you can buy that have cup holders in them. i think the bathtubs of the future will include cup holders. pants too.
>there was a fat guy sitting behind us that smelled like a melange of unwashed skin, cigarette smoke and a submarine (you know, the sandwich kind).
>the fat guy who smelled like a melange of unwashed skin, smoke and a submarine (you know, the sandwich kind) dropped a mayonnaise-covered piece of chicken in my hair. from his sub. good thing today was my turn to shower!
>while trying to assemble his mo pete figurine, kris broke off the hand that was holding the basketball. i shall tell the brother that is lucky enough to receive my figurine to handle with care.
as much as i didn't enjoy being showered with sandwich toppings, it was very fun! i may even go again one day if i am presented with free tickets again. hint hint.
