The Twitterverse

On my old blog, I did a very quick post about my participation on the social networking site, Twitter, but I think it has definitely blown up since then and needs further attention. ๐Ÿ˜‰

I’m a huge fan of social networking (obviously) and Twitter has drastically morphed since the first day I joined a couple of years ago (I deleted my account because literally no one I knew was on it). I rejoined last year and have loved watching it become the mecca of information and interaction that it is today.

One of my favorite aspects? The influx of celebrities that have taken over Twitter and realized its potential to further connect them to their fans. There is something about reading “I just pooped” coming from one of your favorite musicians to make you realize that yes, we are all human.

One of my favorite shows, Heroes, has definitely taken it to the next level. Castย  member and general mind-reader extraordinaire, Greg Grunberg, heads up this band of merry Twits often updating with pictures from the set, ranch-loving tales or the random YOWZA! His cohorts include other cast members, makeup artists, writers and prop masters just to name a few. Thanks to the constant tweets, the show has been able to get direct feedback after each episode from its legions of fans. The best part? They interact right back with you! It’s a great time to be a fan, people. Even the LA Times agree.

Are you curious as to which famous faces I follow? Wonder no longer.

Lovable Friday!

All of you know by now (thanks to last week’s Lovable Friday post) that I’m a Twilight fan and although I do play the part of crazy fangirl, I don’t like the cheese that comes along with it. When I fangirl, I like to do so with class and these shirts from Spreadshop do the trick and then some! Their simple listing of names for each “family” whether it be the Cullen’s, Quileute’s or Volturi are a pretty immediate indicator as to your “team” when it comes to the Twilight series. They don’t stop at families either. More of a fan of emotionally complex love triangles? Check out their Bella&Jacob&Edward shirt. Which one am I picking up? The Cullen family, of course.

Lovable Friday

lovablefridayI was brainstorming for a Friday blog post topic, when I realized how much I love Friday’s: the end of the work week, the beginning of the weekend. The feeling of relief when you wake up in the morning and realize Saturday & Sunday are upon you and the fun is just about to begin. Because of all these great feelings associated with Friday’s, I figured my blog post had to be just as lovable, exciting and fun. And then it came to me.

Lovable Friday! Why not make a post every Friday dedicated to the things I love that particular week. From people to accessories to blog posts to movies to albums. Things that would help the weekend start right: with a smile.

Let’s begin!

A-Heroes-ing

So what if I have a preference? ๐Ÿ˜‰
Last night was the premiere of Heroes Volume 4 & I loved every second of it. OK, well maybe not when the words “to be continued” appeared on the screen, but every other moment was great. I know it was basically a “set up” episode so not a lot of action really happened, but I can’t wait to see the way this volume
plays out.

There have been rumors that due to huge rating drops, Heroes may not be on the air after Volume 4 if those ratings don’t increase in the next few months so if you are a fan or even teetering on fandom – please watch! Let’s help Heroes stay on the air or I don’t know what will become of my Monday nights.

What do you guys think? Still a fan? Think the show sucks now? Think I’m a delusional fangirl? Leave me some comment love, whatever it may be!

LOST | Season 5 Premiere

So last night was our LOST party and as expected, we had a great time being a bunch of nerds together. The polar bear was a big hit and got a lot of love throughout the night by our guests, there was a special appearance by the infamous snuggie and everyone enjoyed their Dharma beverages. Unfortunately, the weather was uncharacteristically freezing so the ringlight photoshoot was a no-go. I did manage to brave the cold long enough at the end of the night to get a few good Dharma propaganda shots!
