Happy New Year

i have once again decided that i have too much to say, and thus, will attempt to blog once again. i will try to focus on all things pop(which was my initial plan) and not just on fashion(it distracts me. it often involves sparkly, colourful things).
so what does 2012 mean to me?

well i have the usual eat-healthier-exercise-more-resolution. i also plan to be more ambitious when it comes to my career. i can't sit around with a blog that has about 2 readers that i never write in, occasionally making hats, and being jealous that nobody has magically 'discovered' me. i gotta work for it. stop being lazy. yes. anyway, thats quite enough of that.

speaking of being lazy, theres some 2012 tv that i am hopeful about. playing it straight is particularly exciting. its not a new concept. it is a series that has been made before, in amercia, the uk and australia. the uk are giving it a go again. the painfully-fashionable jameela jamil will host and alan carr plays narrator(which can only be a good thing). basically in a bachelorette-style dating show, one girl will date a bunch of guys and it will end with one winner. the twist is that some of the guys are gay and they are all pretending to be straight. if a gay-posing-as-straight guy makes it til the end, he gets all the prize money. if a straight guy does, he shares with the chick. i hope they don't tell us who is who, cos I really want to play along at home. i reckon i will ACE it. although there is bound to be some full on metro's taking part, which will make it a little tricky.

i also love 'got to dance'. it makes my jaw drop a lot more than any singing show ever could. some of the talent is unbelievable. maybe its because i can sorta sing(not to reality-show-winning-standard, but I can sing more than I can dance) and i haven't got a hope of ever being able to leap through the air or stick my leg behind my head. plus, its so obvious it doesn't even need to be said, but adam garcia is still dreamy.

lastly, i am looking forward to seeing everybodys-favourite-hipster zoey deschanel in the american sitcom 'new girl'. it really has been a while since a really good new american comedy has come along, and this is poised to be that show. deschanel has been nominated for a golden globe for best actress- television series musical or comedy for her role in this series, so fingers crossed it lives up to my high expectations.i am sure i will keep you up-to-date on how these shows pan out. heres hoping they be good!
