I Wanna Go - LIVE-0n stage!!!

I was watching the VMA's tribute and ran across this.. I wished I would have gone to her concert. I could have died and gone to heaven if I was one of those people on stage. How awesome would that be to dance next to my singing favorite since the 6th grade. OMG!!!

9 things guy say should never be fake about you

I love yahoo and ran into this article:

9 things guy say should never be fake about you:

http://yahoo.match.com/y/article.aspx?articleid=12458&TrackingID=526103&BannerID=844056

I thought all the points were very good. Especially helpful because I am trying dating again.


Wedding Xpo

Sunday these ladies
and I went to a wedding Expo in Rosemont. It was suppose to have 120 venders(we didn't think they had that many) from Dj's, dresses, photographers, cakes and more. It was held in the Hilton and filled  two huge rooms. We were mostly looking for Dj's and center pieces idea. We ran across these pretty designs



My favorite center pieces were the first two with the white flowers and the candles on top. I thought those were pretty and you could buy the candles yourself and do things yourself. I like do it yourself ideas to make the day unique.

Then we ran into a guy that was talking about seating arrangements and how your guest would know where to sit. Instead of the traditional cards he showed us this bad boy
It was a fancy poster with a nice frame around it. I liked that idea because you could get your own frame from hobby lobby.

That only lasted an hr because we didn't need to stop at every station that they had because Jackie had a lot of things covered already. So after that we went to

I really liked the atmosphere in this place it had

elephants everywhere and

 My food was just okay. I didn't take a picture because I wasn't blown away by it.

My morning on Sunday was wonderful because I got to spend it with my best friend and eat some of my favorite food!

Tasty Pasta

Thursday of last week I made my parents dinner and came up with this delicious dish

It is so simple to make. It pretty much took me 15 mins to make. I hardly had to do anything besides chop up the zucchini that is in the dish.

So this dish has:
 one box of  pasta
 two zucchini
crushed tomatoes- with basil( a can product)
tomato paste- tablespoon
northern beens( one can)
feta cheese( however much you like)

* I will give you more specifics on directions but right now that's the gist. :) I don't have the recipe in front of me at the moment.

Our Idiot Brother

So I thought this movie was gonna be funny from the trailer that they show on TV but I felt like this  clip portrayed the movie better. It was about how Literally Ned( Paul Rudd) was a man child and said "stupid" things all the time. He was like a child that didn't have a filter and didn't know when he should keep things to himself.

I don't know how I would rate this movie in stars. Right now I would give it  2. stars  I liked the sisters acting and his because he did a great job conveying his character. I just don't know what to think of the plot of the movie. I am thrown off by the plot. I feel it's one of those movies you have to see again. I will wait until the Red-box to check it out again.

I would tell people not to waste their ten bucks on this movie unless you are Brian, Jackie's fiance because he likes movies others don't.  :)

Necessary Roughness

Is another show this summer that I have fallen in love with. This show is not like any other show out there. It's about Dani( the lead lady) is a therapist for a NY minor league football team, which she helps TK( purple shirt guy), and she also helps other sports players on other teams such as professional race car drivers, poker players and more. 

It is on Wednesday on the USA network.

Love in the Wild

is my guilty pleasure on Wednesday. 

Miles was my favorite guy and he was one of the last couples
He came in second to this couple

Sam and Mike. They drove me nuts the whole show. Such a sappy couple. 


What is your guilty pleasure show?

Jackie's Celebration

Today to celebrate Jackie's birthday we went to

with her dad and


For dinner I made this 

noodles,edamame, chicken, corn, celery and pineapples with Pad Thai sauce.

.
Then for desert I got to try this place and had delicious yogurt.

It was Oreo's and chocolate with M&M's, chocolate chips and Butterfingers pieces. It is much cheeper than Red Mango and so much more delicious because you control everything.

My new song obsession

I am in love with this song.  I have played this song everyday on my itunes for about a little over a week now.  I am so sad I did not get tickets to Lallapolozia this year because Coldplay is preforming.

Has anyone seen coldplay in concert? Anyone going to Chicago for the concert?

Margarita Movie Night

Tuesday night at

 is half price pitchers of margaritas. Jenna and I paid 13 dollars for a pitcher as we sat in the movie theater waiting for

to start. We waited about half and hr for the movie to start and then the manager comes out and says that the projector is broken so we will not get to see the movie.  He then says,  we will get free passes to come back and that we can go to any movie that is playing right now for free AND we can get our money back on our ticket that we paid for. ( Jenna and I only paid $8 dollars for two tickets because I had a coupon to get one admission free)

So, Jenna and I hauled our butts to the next theater and went and saw
Surprisingly I liked the movie. Justin Timberlake was funny in the movie and he sang and danced a little bit. It was a predictable movie, meaning happy ending, but still good. I would give it 3 stars.



Overall I was thrilled that all I paid for was my drink and got to see a free movie. What could be better than that!

Playstation

Today I was looking through  the basement closet for a book and I ran across my
and then I found all my old games. I ran across this one
and I ended up playing it for about 3 hrs tonight. I forgot how addicting this game can be. It is comical playing a game from 1999 because the graphics are so different than today. The game is still entertaining.  Tomorrow I might explore my Snowboarding game, car racing and Tetris game.

Do you still have any old gaming systems left that you have played recently?
