GG's Best of 2011

Best Artist

Adele, she's gorgeous and her songwriting is beyond amazing

Best Album

The Script's Science & Faith is all about love, heartache and being able to admit when your wrong. Those Irish boys sure know how to speak to a girl's heart and soul.

Best Movie

Thor. I love the film because of it's creative digital creations and the fact that Thor a god has to learn a lesson in humility. Ultimately it marks the start of the Avengers in May. Yay!!! Also Chris Hemsworth is to die for, beard and all.

Best New TV Show

Once Upon A Time!!! It's so good I cannot wait to delve into it further with those of you reading out there. The parallels between fairy tales and reality is great. The writers thus far have done an amazing job.

Of Course we gotta talk about the hotties on my screen:

TV Boyfriends

1.Prince (James) Charming 2. Shawn Spencer/Burton Gustard 3. Neil Caffrey 4. Chuck 5. Dr. Jack Hodgens

Oh 2009!

It's that time again! Yes, 2009 is over but it still had some memorable and amazing discoveries.

1. gLee!
So awesome and amazing. I love every moment of it and can not wait til April when it returns. All I can say brilliant characters, amazing writing and the hilarious Jane Lynch. This show just speaks to all the geekiness in my soul :)

2. Bones
While it's been on air for a four previous seasons--I only discovered it this summer. And it is pure magic. I love the dynamic between Seeley Booth and Tempreance Brenan that keeps me coming back. Despite all the struggles and depressing events they have had to dealt with, there still remains magic and light in their relationship. Plus they have some widly fascinating cases and magnificient work atmosphere with interesting characters. Really its a can't miss

3. Firefly/Serenity

So I was tad late on this train but I can't believe this show only lasted a brief moment in time. I totally love all the characters and how bad Mal pretends to be when deep down he has a heart as pure as gold.

4. The Script

After fall in love with them at a Borders and the beautiful city of Ann Arbor, I don't know what to say about this duo. They got me through some exercises or just times when I want mellow out. I love these guys and can't wait to hear more of there amazing songs. Song that just hit the heart in all the right places.

5. Katy Perry

While everyone thinks Lady Gaga is where it's at, but I really love the majority of the stuff that Katy Perry writes. A lot of her metaphors are just right. Anyways, she one of my fave new artist of the year. Plus she used Matt Dallas in my sad song of the year (Thinking of You), can't get better than that :P

6. Star Trek

So, this was my movie of the summer. I don't even know why I like it so much. All I can say is that it was refreshing and a nice surprise. I guess I went in thinking that I could just stare at the beautiful Chris Pine if it was a total slump, but in the end I fell in love with the franchise that had been set up and truly enjoyed the plot.

7. The Hangover

This had to be by far the best comedy of the year and every single actor that participated in this piece was brilliant, even down to the lost groom. Seriously there were some shining moments and it was just a one of the more creative concepts presented to the public this summer. Best moment had to be when the guy jumped out of the trunk, like some kind of mountain lion. LOL.

Goodbyes

1. Kyle XY

It was super hard for me to say goodbye to this show. And a lot anomisity came from within when I heard the disgraceful news, because I truly loved this show. I really thought it to be unique and original and I guess that's what the problem was unfortunately, people seem to like to watch the same old junk. But that's life and I truly wish the best for the cast and crew. And I guess I'll cross my fingers for a movie

2. BSG

What can I say?? Battlestar Galactica, made me the sci-fi junky that I am today. Seriously, it washed away all my preconceived notions of what science fiction meant and I loved the story it told, even though at the end it got a bit forced with the images of robotics in our culture. But serious props to the creator, writers and actors of this great adventure!

The Beauty of Liveness

Today we live in a world where anything and everything can be accessed through our fingertips in the blink of an eye, depending on your Internet connection. Because of this, I think we forget how amazing it is to experience something in real life. So I implore of you that you take the time to go to a museum and see the art for yourself, breath it in or go to that concert cause it truly is a wonderful experience.

This afternoon I was in a group of fifty who got to be serenaded by the sexy, beautiful band mates of The Script, an Irish band from Dublin consisting of Dan, Mark and Glen. After spending a brief moment with them after the show at Borders in Ann Arbor, they definitely all sweeties and my fave has to be Danny. The singer who also plays the a mean set of keys!

Anyways to sum up my new love for sexy foreign bands (sorry FOTC), check out a video of my favorite song at the concert:
