My Summer Challenge

Hola my lovely Sinners,

Now once again I have to ask for your forgiveness as I have sinned, and not in the good way. I have neglected my promise to update this blog since it has been literally months since my last post. Don't worry I have already given myself a good 50 Shades of Grey style flogging and am working on my penance - no wine for me tonight. 

But as you can tell from the glorious weather and green life outside that Summer is in full swing. In case, for some unknown reason, you didn't know Summer is my favorite season. Perhaps it is the cooler drinks, the shorter clothes, the darker skin, or the sticky feeling you get when you lather too much sun screen on, but something about Summer just makes me happy. There is just something magical and magnificent about Summer. Something about the longer days that makes it seem that anything is possible. You can go to the beach, each and all get away, rollerblade with your besties till your feet get gross callouses, pig out at the Pizza Hut buffet then drive all the way to Ikea for some meatballs and design your perfect home. Or even have the perfect romantic-comedy-inspired Summer romance with a hot lifeguard or barista. My point is that anything is possible during the two month break (or four months for you college kids) before life school begins and life starts getting annoying again. Plus if you think about it you only have a certain number of Summer vacations left before you get a full time job and you can no longer sleep in to 1 pm or stay up all night watching reruns of The O.C. 

So as cliched as it sounds I always make a Summer Checklist, as a way to make the most of the Summer. Just a list of random things I wish to accomplish before the Summer is up. But this year I decided to forget the list. Why waste my time writing a bunch of things down that I'd most likely never accomplish. Instead I opted for a much more focused goal; something that is still tricky but also achievable. So here it is my Summer 2013 Challenge: 

The Challenge: 
I want to either go on five dates or kiss five boys. Now before you go on calling me a slutbag let me explain. Since I am the byproduct of too much Disney Fairy tales and Nicholas Sparks books I am a complete hopeless romantic. And as much as I'd hate to admit it  I've always wanted a summer romance, think Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth in The Last Song (minus the whole cancer thing- spoiler alert). And  since I'm such a virgin prude I think it be suitable to finally get out there and make the most of my youth and beauty, I mean it won't be long till I will be sticking needles in my face and I need to find my rich Jewish hottie to pay for said botox treatments. 

The Rules: 
Like any good challenge there are conditions. First off it is either five dates OR kiss five guys. That's to make it a little easier, if you knew my shy, timid self you'd understand. A date can be anything from coffee to dinner and a movie, basically meeting up with a guy with some romantic intentions. Yes, the dates do not necessarily have to be with different guys. If perhaps I meet a guy I really like and we end up dating (fingers crossed) then it still counts. The same goes for the kisses; I can kiss the same guy twice and still have it count to the challenge. The whole point of the challenge is to get me out of my comfort zone and allow me to open up and meet new people. 

There it is my Summer challenge, and now that Summer is halfway done I better get cracking to find my Summer fling. As a way to keep me motivated and update this blog I will be posting progress reports from all my hopefully scandalous encounters. 

I want to hear from you, what are you Summer goals or challenges? what do you hope to achieve this Summer?

Sinfully yours,
XXX

Pretty Little Liars is getting pretty little interesting






           So far this season of Pretty Little Liars has been anything but pretty. I mean the plot is just dragging on and on and I’m losing my patience. I mean this show is seriously lacking something. The story goes on so many tangents that it’s hard to keep up. Like Caleb finding his biological father, what was the point of that?

But just when I was about to give up hope and permanently remove this show from my TV schedule, the writers pull some next level shit and drag me back in. This week’s episode was one of the best this season, of course that’s not saying much.

Little Ezra may look cute, but he's also super annoying. Trains, really?
Once again we find Aria dealing with Ezra’s baby drama which has seriously increased after Ezra’s baby momma and Little Ezra decide to move to Rosewood after Momma Fitz drop kicked her behind out of her condo. After Aria decides to have some adventures in babysitting- which does not end well – she begins to realize being a teen mom wasn’t in her plan. Oh no, could this be the end of everyone’s favorite teacher-student couple? Mary Kay Laterneau must be so disappointed. First off I don’t really care for this storyline; it’s so random. Do we really care about Ezra’s drama? I guess Ezra and Aria were getting boring now that their relationship is out in the open so the writers needed something to spice it up. I will accept this, for now, only because now Prof. Sexy has more screen time. But can we seriously recast the son. He’s annoying and should really go back to his child-acting class cause whatever he’s selling, I’m not buying.

Hanna and Aria are up to no good; at least they look cute
Over in Hanna land, the Marin women are being haunted by the ghost of Ashley’s fender bender. I’m not even going to comment on her running over Wilden because of the sheer stupidity. Bitch ever heard about going around? She gives women drivers everywhere a bad reputation. After searching for Wilden’s body, Hanna and Ashley believe they are in the clear; that is until Hanna gets a special present in her garage. She sees the tape of her mother’s crime and thinking it’s another threat from A decides to call her bestie Aria and go all “I know What You did Last Summer” by pushing it in the river. So, my guess is by next episode the police somehow discover Hanna’s genius plan. I don’t think these girls think through their plans enough. But on a side note they were looking super cute. If this show has taught us anything it’s that: if you’re going to commit a crime at least make sure you look good.

And now for the real juicy jaw-dropping moment.  After her near-death experience last week, Spencer decides she’s had enough of A’s game and told the girls the truth about Toby. The girls are all in disbelief, especially beautifully naive Emily who makes it her mission to find the missing Toby. You got to love this girl’s ability to be so trusting. You would think after being drugged, kidnapped, and almost murdered she would get with the program. Spencer still believes Mona is messing with her friends and decides to follow her to the woods at night. RED FLAG! Nothing good ever happens in the woods or under the cloak of night. These bitches never learn. After following her in the woods Spencer sees ... are you ready for this ... Toby’s dead body! DUN DUN DUN! Spencer has finally lost it and gets locked up in the crazy bin.

Spencer has finally gone over the deep end
Who saw that coming? Crazy Spencer and Dead Toby. Now I’m going to call it right now, Toby isn’t dead. Spencer didn’t actually see his face so we don’t have concrete proof. I predict it’s Wilden’s dead body that Mona disguised as Toby’s. At this point I wouldn’t be surprised by anything this girl does.

So Sinners what are your thoughts? Has Pretty Little Liars redeemed itself? Do you think Toby is really dead? How annoying is Ezra’s kid?
