My First Blog...XOXO Gossip Girl

I'm not a HUGE fan of Gossip Girl, but Monday's episode (that I caught online while working on Thursday) was awesome! It had it all. There was Dan Humphrey, who was so excited to have found a boy-friend in Nate that he could not stop boy-gushing in a series of "man" and "bros" directed to Nate while on the phone in hopes that the two of them would find some time to play soccer togther (?!). Then there was Serena, who found it unfair that as a 17-year-old teenager living in New York, her mother and step-father were now imposing a 1 am curfew on the weekends. (I thought there were laws saying you had to me home earlier that that...?) Serena was in her usual flaxen-haired glory of finding time to party with socialites, drinking martinis with the also 17-year-old Blair at the Waldorf household, and...speaking while everytime sounding like she had a load of (insert word of phrase here) in her mouth. Here is a picture to perhaps demonstrate this:



But the best part of the show was of course Chuck and Blair. Or shall we say Sebastian and Catherine? Yes, it was a very Cruel Intentions/Dangerous Liasions kind of show, and I won't bore you with the please-seduce-that-troll-Vanessa plot, just know that favors of the biblical kind were promised (by Blair to Chuck, natch)and know that this is all Blair can do to allow herself to be seduced by Chuck, lest her very precarious ego be damaged by Mr.Bass's occassional very cruel ways. Chuck (also 17 years old, mind you) still is in hot pursuit for Miss Blair's heat, so he will accept any challenge to bring him closer to the fiy-ah (hehe)! Of course they end up in bed togther (parents are apparently never home), but do they do it? After Chuck asks Blair to say 3 choice words to coax his mood (and ego) and she refuses,

Chuck: "I've chased you long enough, now it's your turn to chase me."

And so Gossip Girl has found a way to keep the show's hottest duo still hot for each other!



So yeah, and this was my first blog on the website. I've decided to write about some of my favorite topics (TV shows, celebrities, and an occasional "news" story) here, and I hope some of you enjoy reading me! :)
