Boos and Woo Hoos!!!!!

Since it is New Year’s Eve today I thought it was appropriate to take a cue from all the radio stations and TV networks out there and discuss my favorite (Woo Hoo!) and least favorite (BOO!) things of 2008. Feel free to agree or disagree with me and I would love to hear what your list would look like!

Boo!!! This stuff stinks.

1. Hancock. I was very excited to see this movie but somewhere in the middle of the film it took a very bad turn. I will not spoil it for those who have not seen it but those of you who have, know what I am talking about. It could have been a really good one too.

2. Mylie Cyrus. If I have to hear one more time about how this 15 year old girl is sending nudey photos of herself to young boys I am going to vom. She is 15 (now 16)! Plus, she is supposed to be a role model to all these young girls who love Hanna Montana. You guys thought Britney was bad, wait until this one gets older.

3. The Hills. What the heck is this crap? I mean, I admit I used to watch Laguna Beach but this show is so staged how they can call it reality baffles me. I think if they had just left it alone it would have been better. I am guilty of catching it every now and then when nothing else is on. Hey, at least I am honest

4. ASU Football. I am embarrassed to be alumni and have to endure each football season. Every year I am disappointed but this year was the worst. Why do they even get ranked? They always blow it and this year when they lost to UNLV just started a downward spiral. At least Carpenter will be gone.

5. Writer’s Strike. I had to resort to getting sucked into every stupid VHI Celebreality show on TV because there was no new sitcoms or dramas to watch. I also think some of my favorite shows got canceled due to it. Boo on you!

6. 1st Photo Radar ticket. Hey, at least it was a cute picture.

7. Digital Rap Voice. Does anyone know how to rap anymore? I mean every song has this creepy digital voice. TPain started all of this and it was cool in one song but now there are a herd of digital douches out there. Is that really all the talent out there these days? So annoying! Notorious and 2Pac por vida homies.

8. The Mom Bob. One girl in probably Kansas or Wisconsin got an asymmetrical bob and now everyone has the mom bob. Not everyone looks cute with a shaved neck and longer hair to their chin. You all look like soccer moms!!!! Not even the hot ones.

9. The Dirty. Okay, I love this website and the fact that it makes fun of people that try to be so cool when they really are douchenuggs but now I am so scared to go out anywhere in Oldtown. As most of you know I frequented Oldtown back in my heyday and actually love the nightlife (I love to boogie) but even the slightest chance my big boo-tay or real tatas (nice I might add) may end up on a website to be scrutinized scares me. Plus, I do not try to act cool, I know I am not cool. I actually do the opposite. I see how goofy, retarded, and completely embarrassing I can be rather than see how many dudes want to hop on the Krista train. WOO WOO!! We all know there would not be enough room for all of them anyway.

10. The Election. It wasn’t even the outcome but the fact that everywhere you turned you could not get away from it. Also, do not assume everyone under the age of 35 is a Democrat. I have been offended several times due to the fact everyone just assumes I am a Dem because I am young. Maybe it is because I do not feel like I have to push my views or make fun of people that do not party in my party. So in another 4 years, I hope you will try to be kind to your fun loving Republicans. Trust me, we are not ALL bad! I have some great friends that are Dems and they are awesome because they do not make me feel bad for what I believe and vice versa. We agree to disagree. Use some tact people.

Woo Hoo! I loves it!!

1.Youtube. I know this phenomenon has been around for awhile but I never really caught on until now. It is so cool! I love when I am in my cube coma and someone sends me an awesome clip. Some of my faves are: Hamster on a Piano, Montgomery Flea Market, PowerThirst, Tickle Me Emo, MadTV does Project Runway, Dramatic Chipmunk and Karaoke Fail (We can go on a secret rondayboo!). Oh yeah, and WHAT WHAT!! The Samuel version and the Butters version. So good! Oh Youtube, however would I get through the day without you?

2. Rock Band. I was late with this one too but it is so fun. I love having friends over and rockin out in my virtual band Unagi! If you have never played you need to make it your New Year’s resolution.

3.HIMYM. That is slang for How I Met Your Mother. If you have yet to see this show you have no idea what you are missing. My sister got me hooked on this show. You need to give it at least 3 episodes in a row and you will be hooked. My sister kept telling me it was good and I was always “It is alright.” But once I watched the 1st season DVDs it quickly became Legend wait for it Dary!! I have the first 2 seasons if you want to borrow them. I think this show is going to become crazy popular soon so you can say you watched it before everyone else. I know I can because I have been watching for sometime now! It is witty, funny, and ridiculous and with its flashbacks and flash forwards it keeps you watching closely. You will not be disappointed. ***Also check out Big Bang Theory that airs before HIMYM. It is about a bunch of geeks and is pretty hilarious.

4. Britney Spears. Okay, okay. I know! Everyone thinks she is crazy and hates her music. If I had a dollar for everyone that tells me how little talent she has I would no longer have to work. I am not skerred to admit that I am a fan. I love her! (my sister would kill me right now.) She is an entertainer and I cannot help to bop to the beat of her music. It reminds me of hanging out on the town with my friends and always puts me in a happy mood. It helped me invent my car dancing moves and no I am not embarrassed to do them alone. I am so happy that she is having a comeback. She looks better, she has a new album that went to #1 and she is staying out of controversy. Way to go Brit!

5. Babies. There are babies seeping out of the walls right now. Everyone I know is having babies, just had a baby, or is trying to have a baby. It is so fun and exciting to see people starting their families. I have never been a big fan of babies or children because frankly I have never really been around them so this should be interesting. I have a feeling I am going to learn a lot and maybe even learn to like the little boogers.

6. The Secret. I know you have probably heard of this or seen it on Oprah but it is not as cheesy at it looks. I am pretty skeptical of things but once I read this book I could not help to think that they may have something here. If anything it teaches you not to think negatively about yourself or others and to think positively. Cannot go wrong with that!

7.Tights. I love that I see girls and women wearing them everywhere. They look so cute with a sweater dress or skirt. I even have some of my own (Thanks VA). Get some and you can be cool like me :)

8. Wednesdays. I do not have to work. I love that I have the option to work 4/10 hour days and I get every Wednesday off. The days are long but that one day I get off is completely worth it. I sleep in, grocery shop with the blue hairs, and watch all my shows I recorded snuggled on my couch. Plus, I never work more than 2 days in a row, think about…yeah…awesome!

9. Barry the cat. I know you all know I got a cat but did I mention he is the coolest cat of all time? He talks to me, cuddles with me, plays with me, and isn’t creepy and weird like a normal cat. I love that I have a fuzzy little pet to greet me when I get home. He loves me, what can I say?

10. Washington DC. Oh my goodness, this place is amazing! My sister moved to the DC area about a year ago so I finally went out to visit her family in October. This city surpassed all the positive things I had heard about it. I went to Manassas, Mt. Vernon, Arlington Cemetery, Archives building, Holocaust Museum, Spy Museum, Natural History Museum, Capitol Building, Lincoln Memorial, Korean War Memorial, Vietnam Memorial, National Monument, The National Cathedral, Great Falls, and Georgetown just to name a few. I love to learn and this was the most I have ever learned in such a short time. I love that I have now seen all the things that are always in movies and on TV with my own eyes. The appreciation I have for my country and those who fought and founded it doubled. If you have never been, I say you need to book your tickets now! The bonus of it all is that all the museums are free. It was truly amazing, not to mention that I had gracious hosts/tour guides, fantastic sangria and doggles to snuggle with.

***2008 colliding with 2009 Honorable Mention: The Arizona Cardinals are going to the playoffs. We finally have some football to root for here at home. Please be kind and root for Kurt Warner and the AZ Cardinals. Hopefully they will not let us down.

So that is my list. I just want you all to look back on this year and think of the good, forget the bad, and make 2009 everything you know it should be. You have the power to live the life you want and you should never want anyone’s life but your own. I know I am enjoying mine, especially with the support and fun times with family and friends. Happy New Year and see you in 2009… hungover I hope. Remember, greasy meal, Gatorade, and Jamba Juice with a Vita Boost. Works everytime.
