(1) I am all about TV shows having their own music. I definitely loved Michael Giacchino for Alias's original music; it added something special.

However, the strummy la las on Gilmore Girls drives me crazy. Crazy! All they do is act like they forgot the words! And strum! The guitar! It was cute at first, but I am so sick of it. As sick as I am of "Where You Lead." Arg.

(2) They keep showing ads for "Step Up" or whatever that new dance movie is, and now I actually want to see it. It seems all Dirty Dancingish! I was about to say something like "I love dance movies!" but I really don't. I was the girl who always fastforwarded through lengthy dance sequences in old musicals, such as Oklahoma or Singin' in the Rain. And I love the ad and the posters and even the damn font they're using for the posters. I probably won't see it anyway, just because... it probably isn't worth $7 student admission.

(3) I am fiiinally getting my haircut tomorrow. And it's kind of freaking me out because I knew that was one of the main things I knew I had to do before going away and... I'm going to do it. Oh man.

(4) I got a letter from UF telling me about the rooming situation and what's going on with my temporary triple and stuff. I still haven't heard from the second roommate.

La la laaaaaaaa, la la laaaaaaaa--

And I'll stop now. If only because I'm in danger of getting the la la la's stuck in my head.

I don't think I will ever be able to get sick of Where You Lead, though.

And the only thing I can think about Step it Up is that it bears this eerie resemblance to Save The Last Dance.

I have never actually seen Dirty Dancing all the way through, I must confess. This is one of my most sinful qualities, but what I did see of it? I kinda hated. I am tempted to give it another go just to see Emily. Maaaaybe.

I think the problem is that I watched like, a hundred episodes in a few days, so I heard the theme song a lot before I finally decided that fastforwarding through it was necessary to my continued sanity.

And ugh, I hated Save the Last Dance.

And not liking Dirty Dancing is a sin. A SIN. But Emily's small roll is very cute. And I can't believe no one has taken the easy "No one puts Baby in a corner" crack.

I love Where You Lead! I did start fast forwarding through it during most of s3, though. That could have led to the feelings of general goodness.

I liked it once. I might like it again someday.

(I covet your icon SO MUCH.)

I love the la la las on Gilmore Girls!

But, so, what's going on with your room? Have you talked any more to Marisa?

It used to be cute. And now it's like, omg they're just going with the guitar! Bless you! .... NOOOOOO!

As for my room, she didn't answer my last email, but I know she's coming up like, the 20th. I finally caved and messaged Brittany on facebook to try to get a clue. And I got a letter from UF about the arrangement of the room and how they'll do a triple, you should've gotten a similar letter.

Mine's not a temporary. Is that what yours was about? As far as I know, my mom hasn't gotten anything. But that could be because she's a loser and doesn't tell me when I get mail. And, there's also the moving thing. I have a different home address now.

Yeah, that's what the letter was about, so that makes sense that you didn't get one.

If you fast forwarded through the dance sequences in Oklahoma!, what was there left to WATCH? :p

Well, I mean like the "Out of my dreams," that really really long one with Dream Curly and Dream Laurie. The loooong ones.

The Dream Ballet sequence! Yeah, that's like twelve minutes long. We were really surprised that it went over well with the audience when we did the show. :p

And I did serious musical watching when I was a kid, and loooong dance sequences with no words and not even the real Laurie and Curly was not so much my idea of a fabulous time.

I remember being SERIOUSLY confused by it as a child.

These days, I associate it with trying to herd cats. Or, in other words, making sure all the kids get to the right entrances. :p
