New Girl

I saw this trailer earlier this summer and I could not wait for this series to start.  I absolutely love Zooey Deschanel.  She & Him are amazing, and she was so relatable in 500 Days of Summer. Here is the link to the pilot: New Girl.

After watching the pilot today, I have to say that I do not love it.  The idea of an awkward geeky girl trying to figure herself out is a great idea.  I understand girls can me quirky, but I think Zooey takes Jess on a whole new level, almost cringe-able.  Hopefully they have improved her character for the next episode.  I guess I'm a little biased since I thought Summer was so chill and cool.  Her character Jess is the complete opposite of her character Summer.

Out of all the guys, I think I like Nick, Jake M. Johnson's character, the best.  (Spoiler alert) He was so quick to forget the party and make sure Jess was ok!  He's probably my favorite out of the three boys so far.  I will stayed tuned for the next episode.

the murtaugh list

In last night's episode of How I Met Your Mother, we discover Ted's "Murtaugh List," a list of things you're too old to do when you reach 30.

I've pretty much done all, with a few exceptions.



get ears pierced - got two holes in each ear

do laundry at parent's house - all the time in college

crash on someone's futon instead of getting a hotel- someone always lets me sleep in their bed with them. either way, I'm crashing and avoiding the hotel part

put off going to the doctor - always. This reminds me, I still have to get my results when I got tested back in January.

drink shots with strangers - in Vegas

leave an annoying 2-person message on answering machine - just a couple of months ago, I wasn't planning on receiving any important/formal calls

help someone move out of a 6-foot walk up in exchange for pizza and beer - It wasn't a six-foot walk up. It was on the 4th floor w/ an elevator, but we did carry/drag some furniture and a bunch of luggage and a book case from Park Slope, down into the subway, got off at atlantic/pacific stop, up those stairs, and into a new apartment in fort greene. Now this has to count. And she bought me Uncle Louie G ice cream.

dye hair a funny color - never had the urge to color it blue or green or anything, but maybe one day, just to cross this off the list
EDIT: Great point by Ella Everywhere, I've had really harsh blonde streaks that did not suit me at all.

go to a rave - yup

pull an all-nighter - yup, to attend the above, and a couple in college

beer bong - I don't like beer

lazer tag
- of course

10 out of 12, not bad.
Edit: 11 out of 12!

How many have you completed?

monday mourning

And it's the start of a new week... I can already tell this week is going to be a drag. I couldn't seem to get up this morning. The cold might have something to do with it. So here I sit, bored, wishing companies allowed spring break.

I'm excited for the new season of My Boys.
