I like my Sketchers, but I love my Prada backpack.

++ Successfully posted my very first Dean/Castiel fanfic. I had some jitters because I've read plenty, but didn't consider myself worthy of the many amazing and talented authors out there. But I gained up courage and took that dive, and judging from some of the comments I just may do another one in the future. In the midst of my fanmixes which I am almost finishing up because of this fic, actually. \o/

++ Is anyone else getting tired of Megan Fox? I just want to mute her every time she opens her mouth, especially now that she's verbally harassing and pretty much stalking Rain. Can she just disappear forever?

++ So they're making a 10 Things I Hate About You television series now? I've just seen the previews for it and quite frankly, I don't know whether to be kind of excited or facepalming. I mean, I know it's definitely taking an extended version of the movie plot which may just work, but I don't know how to feel about the whole thing. I'm on the fence with this one, but I'll test the waters anyway. Nothing can replace the movie, that's for sure, and who knows? It might be good. At least they're not pretending it's something else when they have the same plot and all, like some other remakes have done. I'm kinda looking forward to seeing the Vampire Diaries, even though the actress playing Elena is not how I envisioned her from the first book (still need to read the rest of the series, heh). But whatever. Appearances don't matter as long as her performance is convincing towards the character.

++ Hope everyone had a great 4^th of July, if you celebrated!

That's how I'm feeling about the series, as well. Why make a show about it when the movie did it just right? What else could there be to tell, other than going for the teenage drama which we already have enough of with all the ABC Family stuff (The Secret Life of an American Teenager anyone?) I just want to see if it looks any good, but watching the previews I'm kind of rolling my eyes a bit.

I'm finding the rising obsession with vampires a bit too much in the media, kind of like how the zombie craze happened. Though I read the first book and actually am looking forward to seeing how they handle it as a series, I don't want it to turn into anything Twilight-ish. I doubt it will, but if it does I'll return to True Blood being the only vampire-centric show that's tolerable.
