okay, well, this isn't really going to be that much of a rant about media as my last blog! more of a rant about everything.
i feel really isolated again. woop de dee! there is something not right again. i'm a bit down i guess as Valentine's day is just around the corner and this is the second year ever where I haven't had a valentine. I no i no, it's pathetic to be moping about that but two years in a row since coming to uni that no-one is interested in me. wooo the isolated incident of a one off event. woo. not helped by how most of my friends are now married, getting married, or parents/parents to be. its getting to me i guess.
my main issue i guess is the thing that doesn't bother anyone who is in a relationship at this kind of year but is the bain of any singleton's life. the ridiculous cutesy valentines tat that seems to litter stores at this time of year. I can't really complain I know as if i were in a relationship i'd be buying into this crap as much as everyone else but being single enables me to really see how cheesy and nauseating the whole affair really is. our t.v.s and cinemas are littered with the sickeningly sweet romance theories that I have always thought to be ridiculous and crap. but the airwaves are now also filled with the likes of wet wet wet and brian adams, as if we didn't hear enough of those already over used in films and adverts!!!! it's a little bitter and ridiculous I know but oh well. everyone who is single is allowed to rant at this time of year! i for one intend to continue with my tradition of a valentine's day massacre in which I sit and watch the most anti valentines movies I can. I started this tradition at 15 when my boyfriend was away with the army cadets for valentine's day by watching Team America. I haven't quite decided what to watch yet this year so any ideas would be welcome.
okay back to important matters. what do i find that is good with the world right now, hmm, i do like what all these celebrities are doing for haiti at the moment but I can't help but be skeptical about all these so called charitable events. I'm very wary as I honestly feel that man of them are doing this for there own gain. to boost there own careers. to be honest I'm sick of all this work that bono is doing for charity. how many people nowadays would honestly know who U2 are if it wasn't for bono putting his face everywhere supposedly helping people just for the good feeling? I know i know i'm probably being a synical person but oh well. sorry!
well thats all for now!
ttfn!

okay
so 2010 kicked off with a bang, I still seem to be the only person on the planet not to have seen Avatar, and to be honest, I'm really not that fussed! it really doesn't appeal to me and considering the hype it's got...seems kinda pointless. I'd rather watch dances with smurfs any day! and if anyone actually reads this and gets that reference I will be impressed!
tv hasn't been that great either, the final "celebrity" big brother is finally over. thank god. I will admit I did watch the final, just to see if the only person I class as a celebrity or being famous won, he didn't. he came third. instead a pathetic excuse for an MMA fighter who no one had heard of this time last year won. Alex Reed. a man who is only famous because of who he's f**king. and does that really mean you are a celebrity? for sleeping with a page three whore? I mean come on, Katie Price or Jordan or what ever she is is only famous because she got her tits out and got knocked up by a football player. and oh yes, for appearing on dodgy reality t.v. shows with her semi famous then husband Peter Andre. do these things really pass for entertainment these days?
I feel like a mad old woman to be perfectly honest, I'm a 20 year old student and yet i sit and winge about what passes for music or television nowadays, but seriously. it's bad enough that every form of media visual media seems to be going down the pan, but now music too?
anyway, enough of the bitching. things to look forward to in 2010, reading line up should be good this year, theres a few (hopefully) good albums due to come out this year. and also some potentially good movies and plays. I'm going to see Posh at the Royal Court in a few weeks and to be honest I really am looking forward to it! look out for my review here soon after!
