My pathetic but great tv life!

So its been a little while since I have posted anything.... it isnt because of my lack of time but more so the lack of interesting things to talk about. School and work are back on full force and really thats about all I do..... well except for TV.... So in honor of my extra curricular activity I thought you should all know how I spend my nights.

Because if the writers strike, reality television is taking over... I am def a little sick of it but I must admit that most reality shows do a pretty good job of sucking me in week after week. Here are some of my faves(in no particular order):
1. The Biggest Loser.... I dont know if it because I love to see what hard work can do for someone or that I want to be Jillian... I think it is more I want to be Jillian.... my dream job would be to take her place and help these amazing individuals reach their dreams through proper exercise and eating habits.

2. American Gladiators- No explanation needed here.... it really is as great as the 80's made it be and now with HELGA as a gladiator it is only that more exciting. How do I get on the show to challenge her.

3. Intervention- I have learned more life lessons from this show than anything else....haha not really but you never quite know what is going to be thrown at you.
4. The Amazing Race- Although I didnt watch much of this last season, i will always have a special place for this show.... and if Jo ever finds her passport we are totally on the show.
6. Any dance competition show (So you think you can dance, Dance Wars, Dancing with the stars)- fills the void of my lack of personal dancing skills.

Outside of the reality tv world I love the following:
1. LOST- just started a new season and already I am LOST but loving it.

2. Gossip Girl- its as if I living the lives of these upper east siders. Sometimes I feel like the drama and excitement are happening to me.
3. October Road- Just a great show.
4. The OC- it has now been off the air for a year, but recently we have found that re-runs show quite often on the "Soap Network." It has now become a permanent item for our DVR.
5. The list could go on and on and on.... but we will stop here.

My life may be pathetic and filled with TV, but it gets me through the Boston winters and keeps me entertained while I do homework. Thanks KAREN for all the memories. haha

Hey marci! how are you? I know exactly what you mean by getting sucked in to watching TV all the time. Keoni and I are right there with you. We were so bad that we had to make a new years resolution to cut ALL TV out. -exept the news and particular sports games and LOST. We we did great for a while but this week I got sick and we cracked down and watched TV everyday. Its too hard- you can't fight the TV waves unless you get rid of the TV all together.
