A new Dancing with the Stars champ...

I am sad to say Lance Bass did not win. He came in third, which I'm still shocked and mad about. Brooke Burke won and to be honest, she did deserve it. She truly was an amazing dancer, though I'm sure a lot of guys voted for her for other reasons, specifically two of them attached to her chest. Anyways, Warren Sapp came in 2nd, and he was a joy to watch! He was a smiling, giant teddy bear that wore dancing shoes; what's not to love!? I thought Lance was a better dancer than Warren, but I will hold back my bitterness about who came in what place; I love you Lance! Overall, I thought this season was interesting to say the least and fun to watch. I can't wait for next season!

The first snow of 2008!

Oh, what a beautiful sight! Finally, we got some snow! I know it's not going to last and seeing snow again probably wont happen for a while but at least we can say we saw some!

What's not to love about snow? It's like little melting balls of goodness falling to the ground. If you're lucky, you can catch some in your mouth; if you're not, try again next time.

Like the song says, "Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!"

"Hurricane Streets" by Hey Monday

The storm is rushing on me
Here's the flood flash
I feel so locked and loaded
Let me out, let me out

Wake up in a wasteland
Where the trees are crashing fast
Make or break
The road explodes
Get out, get out of this town

Let the storm get stronger
Let us speed up
Or get blown over
Time's wasting
How much longer
Before I get myself free
Of these hurricane streets?

Headed for disaster
Way beyond the fear
In the rearview
Watch it all just disappear
Disappear

I don't care where I'm headed
Anywhere but here
Won't waste my life
Can't waste another night
In this town, this town

Let the storm get stronger
Let us speed up
Or get blown over
Time's wasting
How much longer
Before I get myself free
Of these hurricane...

Leaves are blowing down the streets
Wind crawling up our knees
Somebody get the keys
Rain is flowing from the sky
But no fear in our eyes
We're ready to fly

Let the storm get stronger
Let us speed up
Or get blown over
Time's wasting
How much longer
Before I get myself free
Of these hurricane streets?

Cheers and Jeers of Fall.

-The weather is getting colder. Have you ever had to walk to class when it's freezing out? Yeah, not fun.
-Classes are coming to an end. The end means more work and more work means I'm not happy.
