a red rose fell upon the soft snow.

Clearly I'm falling behind on this blogging thing, but it's not my fault! You see, I work at a store called Things Remembered and it's a fantastic job. I get paid decent money for being nineteen and I've been working hellish hours lately, in preparation for Mother's Day. We're an engraving store so we do all that personalization crap. BUT I don't know why I'm bothering to explain because no one reads this, lmao. But despite all of that, I've been catching up on my TV and I'm so turned off by Gossip Girl right now! I hated Georgina from the beginning and I'm pissed they're bringing her back in. BRING BACK JONATHAN lmao ugh! I want them to expand on the Eric/Jonathan storyline, it could be so interesting! And Matt Doyle is so beyond talented, it's not even funny.

And while we're on the Spring Awakening topic, (we weren't, but you like my transition?!), I saw a Gerard look-a-like today. Well, I caught him out of the corner of my eye and it was the kid's smile that got me. I had to do a double take, it almost stopped my heart. When I got closer, however, he was no comparison to Gerard... it's near impossible, actually. So I was slightly disappointed.

Transitioning once more to music. I've been listening to a lot of The Hush Sound lately, most notably "A Dark Congregation" because Greta's voice on that track is flawless. Outside of that song being on repeat, "Sugar High" from the Empire Records soundtrack has also been a huge song in my life at this current moment. Probably because that movie is my most recent purchase and a damn good one, if you ask me! But, I'm done droning for now. Peace out.

oh, mr. magazine, i never wrote one single thing for you.

Alright, so I honestly don't know why I never gave it a chance before, but I'm currently hooked on the show Jericho. The show is so bold and different. It deals with a lot of the fears that we all have and it's just creative in the way that everything happens. The actors are fantastic, also! I was a huge fan of Point Pleasant when it was on and I was quite happy when I saw Clare Carey in the show, despite the fact that I absolutely hate her character. I'm also a HUGE Weeds fan and Shoshanna Stern played one of my favorite characters on the show and she's just as good, if not better as Bonnie in Jericho. I've also formed a love for all of the cast and I'm determined to support them all in whatever they do in the future.

But, out of them all, I've formed a huge, crazy, bordering-stalker crush on Skeet Ulrich. I've pulled a Katie Holmes in saying that I'm going to marry that man. I really am.

Also, through putting my iPod on shuffle while going to class yesterday, I've rekindled my love for Cute is What We Aim For. I've been enamored by Shaant's voice for the past two days and I love it. I've missed listening to them and I haven't realized it until now.

As an avid American Idol addict, (I can't help it!) I'm very nervous for tonight's show. I forgot to vote last night, or, intentionally forgot, since I'm trying to tone down my addiction and not get so carried away with it. But I love music more than anything and seeing all of these people go after their love of music, I just feel connected! But anyway, I'm really looking to see Megan Joy go home tonight because she just doesn't fit. Her voice is so cool and different, but she's way too dorky for me and I can barely watch her perform. If she doesn't head home tonight, I'm hoping it'll be Anoop Desai or Scott MacIntyre. Both were early favorites, but they've lost their luster to me. I'm currently hopping on the Matt Giraud, Adam Lambert and Kris Allen bandwagons. Top three? I think so.

As for this week in other television, Silver has gone nuts on 90210 and its becoming a little ridiculous. I wouldn't keep watching it, if they didn't bring in some new eye candy in the form of Matt Lanter, aka sexy blue eyed beauty. I haven't gotten a chance to watch Reaper yet, but I've got high hopes for it. That show is comedic genius, I love it so much. Lie to Me is on tonight, which is climbing to the top of my list of favorites. As for my absolute favorite, Life on Mars, the series finale is tomorrow, which is the most depressing thing since the cancellation of The OC, of which, yes, I was addicted as well. My TV interests is quite reminiscent of my music taste, huh?

Ending the ramble now. Peace, world.

I'm an inch away from dying and I'm lucky if I choke.

This will, no doubt, be read by no one. I honestly couldn't care, though, because aren't blogs supposed to be for yourself? A way for you to express your feelings in writing? That's what I thought. I may be wrong, but that's not going to stop me from writing my true feelings. If, by some miracle, you come across my blog, expect to read a lot of opinions. Expect to read a lot of venting, a lot of music talk, a lot of Broadway talk, namely Spring Awakening, and expect to read a lot of movie/celebrity talk. I watch a lot of TV, I watch a ton of movies, I listen to music constantly. It's what I do. I'm not going to say "deal with it" because, quite frankly, I don't care if you like me or not.

So, since this is a blog, let me blog. My name is Emily. I'm a nineteen year old college student living on the east coast. I have big dreams and big hopes, which brings me to why I titled my blog "Hopes and Fears." For a while now, Keane has been one of my biggest inspirations. First and foremost, they are why my blog has borrowed their album name. But the main reason why my blog is titled "Hopes and Fears" is because that's why personifies my life at this point. I'm so hopeful for whatever I'm going to do with my life, but I'm also scared of what's to come. So basically this is my life. It's what's going on in my life, my mind. If you stumble across this, maybe it'll help you in some way. I hope it does.
