The Project Runway Season 4 Drinking Game

The Project Runway Season 4 Drinking Game

Obviously this can be played with soda instead of alcohol for us minors. Someone mentioned it awhile back and I thought I’d come up with one. Enjoy!

Blah.

I'm not feeling well.

It's not so much that I feel sick--I mean, I do, but that's not the real issue. I just feel...exhausted. Like, exhausted to the point where everything just hurts. It's not a good feeling, I'll be honest.

Ugh. Tea and sleep are called for, but exams are this week and so studying comes first. Unfortunately.

Ah, timing. Read more! Read more!

Single Again

Sometimes things just don't work out. And that's okay.

I'm honestly not as broken up (pun completely unintended, I swear) about this as I thought we'd be. Yeah, we were good together, but I got busy and he got distant and neither of us had the time or patience to nurture a relationship that wasn't going anywhere.

I'm still going to pester him to stop drinking and making stupid decisions, though. :)

But to be honest, it's probably for the best. I have enough on my plate without trying to salvage a relationship, and I'm enough of a woman to admit that this breakup is half my fault. I'll move on. As usual. Read more! Read more!

RIP Heath Ledger

So, Heath Ledger is dead.

He was 28. Police found him dead in his apartment. Right now the cause of death is rumored to be an accidental drug overdose.

It's weird. Death is one of those things that definitely hits harder when it's unexpected. Usually when there's a death in Hollywood, it's an overblown drug overdose or a crazy murder or an old-timer actor dying in his sleep. Ledger was one of those actors that stayed mostly on the clean side of the tracks, and for him to suddenly die is...weird.

I'm actually kind of stunned. I wasn't a huge fan or anything (though Brokeback Mountain was, as we know, love) but it's still kind of shocking for such a young, talented actor to suddenly just be...gone. I actually triple-checked my information to make sure it wasn't a hoax of some kind--it's happened before. But it certainly seems to be true.

Ledger, from what works of his I've seen, was a very talented, varied actor. His role in Brokeback will definitely be something he's remembered for, as it was such a daring performance. Hollywood will definitely feel his loss. My thoughts and prayers honestly go out to his friends and family, especially his little girl.

RIP. Read more! Read more!

Light Reading

Religion, I've found, can sometimes be nasty.

People tend to take it upon themselves to inform others that their beliefs are wrong, and then describe, in somewhat unnecessary detail, exactly which of their beliefs are incorrect. And most of these people haven't actually read the Bible--the Old Testament, the New Testament, or any of the add-ons--and only know those few verses that allow people to discriminate and blame it on God.

So, in an effort to make sure I actually know what I'm saying, I'm reading the Tanakh. Torah, Prophets, Psalms, Proverbs, Chronicles, etc etc. I'm sure most wouldn't consider it enjoyable reading, but I tend to be a bit eccentric in my choices of literature.

Knowledge is power in things like religion. In order to be truly religious, one needs to at least try to understand. Reciting prayers is habit and believing what you've been taught to believe is habit, not faith. I want to know exactly what I'm professing to believe in; I want to know what my faith says about things in context, not just sound bites taken to condone or condemn a certain issue.

Also, right-wing Evangelicals tend to annoy me, and I like to know exactly what I'm talking about so I can shoot them down. :P Read more! Read more!

Oh yes. I went there.

I've come to a conclusion.

I have an awful lot to say, and more often than not, I say it. Of course, the issue here is that even though I say it, it's usually to myself, silently or otherwise. And when I say things to myself, they continue to float around in my head until they're taken out in one way or another.

But, dear readers, a thing exists called the internet. It's delightful, really. One can say pretty much whatever one wishes, and--thanks to a delicious little thing called 'freedom of speech'--one can get away with it. Of course, people might not necessarily read what you write, but there's always that lucky blogger who earns a loyal following of thousands and ends up on Best Week Ever or Webjunk 40 or whatever other ridiculous reality show VH1 is premiering that week.

I digress. The fact of the matter is, here I am, on blogspot, doing what only seems appropriate: blogging. Maybe I'll be consistent. Maybe not. But really, in the scheme of things--who cares? It's a blog. I can do whatever I want.

The internet, I must stress, is a beautiful, beautiful thing. :) Read more! Read more!
