"hot girls in scary place"....stupidest show ever

just turned on the tv and there was this show on called "hot girls in scary places." it's basically this show where they put some hot girls in supposedly haunted places and watch them deal with it....i guess it's kinda funny to watch this girls who are of course so stupid because, i mean, there's no such thing as a smart hot girl, right? lol. wtf who thought of this show 

adorable adhesive frames and art


just bought this adorable set of sticker frames-- you basically stick them over pictures on your wall, and not only are they so cute, but are reusable, and won't damage the pictures or anything. they also sell adhesive art on the website

lavender makes boys grow man boobs...!

hilarious. 

apparently: "The lavender and tea tree oils found in some soaps, shampoos, hair gels and body lotions can produce enlarged breasts in boys, researchers report."

the poor kid! "4-year-old "who was using absolutely nothing on his skin except a lavender oil preparation that his mother had obtained from a homeopath. She used to rub it on his chest and body every night" because lavender, in complementary medicine circles, is said to have healing properties.
Several months after the boy stopped getting the 'healing balm', his breasts returned to normal."

the article says that apparently lavender has some similar qualities to female hormones... weird!

meteor that almost hit earth

i was getting my nails done the other day when i first heard on the news about the meteor that almost hit earth and destroyed it the other day.... i have since been trying to find out more about it but haven't been able to find articles more than a paragraph long about it. what's the deal? and also why did nobody tell people that this thing was coming if it was gonna potentially destroy us all? they must have detected it. but then again, maybe they didn't tell everyone on purpose, cuz i mean wtf would anyone do lol

confessions of a shopaholic movie: fail.

i think around eighth grade i discovered the shopaholic books (actually i remember quite vividly a fellow flautist in band telling me about it) and fell in love. the british humor is excellent, the story addicting. i went on from "confessions of a shopaholic" to enjoy "shopaholic takes manhattan," "shopaholic ties the knot," "shopaholic and sister," and "shopaholic and baby." all amazing.
naturally i was excited when i saw previews for a movie coming out based on the books. i was a little disappointed that the movie would not take place in london like the novel, and that the heroine was not british. but i went to see it anyway. MISTAKE. 
not only was the movie totally different from the book (as is usually this case with these things, i know), but instead of sly british humor that made the main character out to be an empowered woman despite her flaws, such as addiction to shopping, the movie only contained tackiness, patheticness (yes i am making that a word), and just depression-inducing consumerism and helpless woman characters. i do not know how these film makers were able to get their movie passed by the author of the novels. 
ugh!
