2000-2009: It's the end of an era!
Btw, Happy New Year to Everyone!!
First of all... sorry sorry soryy >.< I've been disappeared for so long. College steals all my time, and, though I should be studying right now, I really want to say "hey, I'm alive!!" and I'm going to share my favourites of this decade with you. Sorry for my English too, I know it's awful but... I try it!
Enjoy the view! Let's go 00's!
SHOWS
Bones
I've started watching this show a month ago (and I've already catch up), and I really really LOVE it!! It's perfect!! All the caracters, the plot, the stories... It makes me laugh, it makes me cry, it makes me smile, it makes me say "awww"... I think my favourite episode is 2x09 Aliens in the Spaceship when Booth runs to save Brennan... omg
Sweets: The point of the exercise is not to explain, but to respond. Okay? Children can do this.
Brennan: Because it's childish.
Sweets: Can we just try it, please?
You love someone, you open yourself up to suffering. That’s the sad truth. Maybe they’ll break your heart. Maybe you’ll break their heart and never be able to look at yourself in the same way. Those are the risks. You see two people and think they belong together. But nothing happens.The thought of losing so much control over personal happiness is unbearable, that’s the burden. Like wings, they have weight. We feel that weight on our backs, but they are a burden that lifts us. Burdens that allow us to fly
And yes, I'm a Booth (Boothie) & Brennan (Bones) shipper. I have to! Their hugs, the way they protect each other, the way they look to each other, the obvious attraction and love between them... . And, above all, their funny/lovely/Booth marry ME quotes:
Booth: So, Andrew… I thought you were going to take him to this thing. That’s what he told me.
Brennan: I was, yes, but… you and I, this was our case. And I guess… what goes on between us, that should just be ours. Isn’t that what you said?
Booth: [long pause] Yeah.
Bones: Am I a bad daughter, a bad person?
Booth: You're not a bad anything.
And a lovely lovely gif (I don't remember who made it, but just awww >.<)
Gossip Girl
I started watching Gossip Girl online, thanks to a formu, before it came out in Spain, and now I can't stop rewatching the first season of this show. It was the first show's DVD I've ever bought, it's just amazing, and I could tell you something I love about each episode (and that's not habitual on me): The cast, the music, clothing, the friendship between Blair/Serena, Serena&Dan relationship, bitchy Georgina, Chuck Bass, Jenny being cute, Dan being funny, Blair being the "crazy bitch around here", sex in the limo... just perfect.
Jenny: It was kike I didn't even exist!
Dan: Mmm... Welcome to my world. It's not so bad when you get used to birds flying at your head and automatic doors never opening.
I love season 2 too, specially for Chuck/Blair love/hate and for Rufus and Lily, my guilty pleasure... I just love those couple so much, they are perfect to me, I love when Rufus calls her "Lil" and they have really funny moments too:
Lily: Tell me something
Rufus: What?
Lily: Something you shouldn't
Rufus: Do you want me to answer?
Lily: Do you want me to kill you?
And what to say about Georgie? It was so funny when she was kind of possessed by God!! I loved those episodes so much:
Georgie: I gave up my old ways when I let Jesus take the wheel
Blair: That is a Carrie Underwood song, not a life choice!
And then, at the end...
Blair: You don't sound like yourself
Georgina: That's funny, because I feel more like myself than ever
Blair: where are you?
Georgina: taking care of what you obviously couldn't.
Blair: ...i don't think jesus would approve of that...
Georgina: well you can tell jesus that the bitch is back.
EPIC!!
I'm not that sure about season 3. I don't like Serena, Lily/Rufus (after the wedding), something about Blair's behaviour... I don't know... but I haven't stopped watching the show so, that has to mean something. A... funny(¿?) fact: When it came out in Spain it had no audience so they only aired 4 or 5 episodes... That must be the awful voices and dubbing. I swear, it makes me want to turn TV off...
Glee
Ok, first of all, thanks livejournal, THANK YOU so much because I wouldn't have heard about Glee if I hadn't had one, because in Spain... there's no Glee yet and if they have to dub it like Gossip Girl, I don't mind watching it online... I love musicals and I love shows, so I adore Glee. The characters are just adorable, the songs performed are perfect, they voices are so amazing, Sue is win, Quinn is gorgeous, Rachel is... Rachel, Puck is hot, Kurt is perfect and Emma is the cutest caracter ever... Judge for yourselves [does "judge for yourselves" it even exist in English? lol]: It's in all year/decade end lists I've seen so far. And the performance of Don't stop believin' has become one of the greatest moments of 2009.
Friends
I think lots of people will agree that this is one of the best show ever. 10 seasons, more than 200 episodes, 5 years off and I still laugh with every single dialogue I already know by heart. Who hasn't dreamt with their friends to move to an apartment and live the show for themselves? Who hasn't related each character to one of their friends? (I'd be Phoebe, if you ask lol) Who hasn't said: "Yes, like in Friends when..!!!", who hasn't cried watching the last episode? I have done all those things and I only have one thing to add: When I grow up, I want to live in Friends. There are thousands of memorable quotes, but the one I remember right now and it makes me LOL is:
Parker: It's who I am, I'm a positive person!
Phoebe: No, I'm a positive person!! You're like Santa Claus... on prozac... in Disneyland... getting laid!!
MOVIES
I love movies, and there are like hundreds of them this decade to picspam, but I'll picspam the first 3 that come to my mind... ok? Though I also think about It's complicated, Love Actually, Because I said so, Save the last dance, Marie Antoinette, The Devil wears Prada...
Mamma Mia
I don't really care about what people say or think about me because of this movie. I can't help loving it so hard. I remember the day I went to the cinema and I watched it. I couldn't stop dancing, laughing and listening to the soundtrack, it gives me lots of energy!! I bought the dvd the day it was released and I rewatch the movie constantly!!! It's so funny and musical! Plus I love Meryl Streep, Amanda Seyfried and Dominic Cooper!!
Pride and prejudice
I absolutely love this movie. I haven't watched the other versions nor read the book, and I know I should have done that to be able to give a correct opinion, but, focusing on the film, the costumes, the dialogues, the landscapes, Keira, Elisabeth&Darcy,,, I think this movie is a must.
Something's gotta give
This movie is hilarious!! Plus I discovered the gorgeous Amanda Peet (Alot like love, The whole nine yard...) and Diane Keaton is awesome as always!!
PEOPLE
Honourable mentions
Emily Blunt [I loved her since The devil wears Prada], Gaspard Ulliel [a god made man], Emma Stone [She's so so cute], Keira Knightley [I first saw her in Bend it like Beckam and I haven't stop liking her since then!]
Blake Lively
Since I first saw her in Gossip Girl I love her. She's stunning, her hair and smile are the envy of lots of people, and she's so funny, talented and natural
(When asked "What's the gossip, girl?") I'm being adopted by Brad and Angelina.
If you ever want something badly, let it go. If it comes back to you, then it's yours forever. If it doesn't, then it was never yours to begin with.
Rachel McAdams
I first saw her in Mean Girls, and I thought: "Look, another typical girl". Then I watched "The Notebook" and... just wow. I think she's incredibly pretty, funny, with an amazing sense of fashion (you MUST look at this gorgeous picspam if you haven't done it yet. )
“I have a certain curiosity for life that drives me and propels me forward.”
Ashley Greene
I love the way she plays Alice in Twilight saga (not a big fan of it though), she pops the character (and people say I'm like Alice/Ashley) plus she's enchanting and I love that shoot.
"Life is so hectic when you're running around."
MUSIC
The best discover of the decade in music is, with no doubt, Spotify. I'll put a link to my playlist, which contains all types of music, including Spanish (some of it a little bit old, so don't judge Spanish music by that lol), and you should share yours too, I always like discovering new songs!

Moleskine; I adore those cute things... My moleskine is like my best treasure, where I keep all my records, pictures, quotes, journal, my friends write on it for me, inspires, songs, websites, movie tickets, recipes, lists, books... everything and anything about me is on there, and I love it!!
Hats; Yes, hats, I started my obsession with them two years ago, and I don't know why!! But they can fit and pop nearly every look, making it chic, casual, or elegant... Perfect!
Dresses; I've never been a very fashion/girly girl, but a couple of years ago something changed. Now I love spending some time (not too much, just a little bit more than before) trying clothes, make up, going shopping... It's like my sense of fashion has suddenly woken up!
