My Favorite Vacation!

My favorite place in the whole world is New York City, and I was fortunate enough to get to go there. I went to New York a month before 9/11 happened. That was a horrible thing to happen but since I got to go before I actually have pictures of the World Trade Centers so that is a cool thing to get to show my friends. Another thing that I got to go to while I was there was the Statue of Liberty. That was probably the coolest thing I have ever seen. When you get there it is so much bigger than it looks. My family and I couldn't even go up to the top because there were so many tourists there. It was crazy.

After going to New York, I know that I want to live there someday. The shopping is to die for and that is my favorite hobby! I also love how fast pass the city is. If you ever want to go anywhere just call out for a taxi or get on a subway. It is so cool! I am so happy that I got a chance to go to New York and see all the awesome things that I did. Hopefully someday soon I will be moving there for good and making it my home!

Griz Games!

Unlike most of you, I grew up going to Griz games every weekend since I was little. My family has had season tickets since before I was born so I was always a huge Griz fan. Since I was little up until my senior year, every saturday I would drive from Butte with my dad and go to the Griz games. As soon as my dad and I would pull into Missoula we would go to the Press Box for a quick breakfast and then go straight to the Butte tailgate. The experience of going to the Griz games with my dad were always a lot of fun. As soon as we would start walking into the games I would get butterflys in my stomach just by hearing the loud cheering roaring out from the stadium. My favorite part of the Griz games used to be the pre game part where Monte would come out and get the crowd all riled up.

Now that I am in college my experiences at the Griz games have changed quite a bit. Instead of going with my dad to the Press Box, I know usually attend keggs and eggs with friends. I still get really excited and nervous before the games but by the time I actually get there I am usually pretty drunk, and unfortunately for me, never make it for the pre game part. I still however go to the Butte tailgate at half time, where I usually embarass my dad at how drunk I am. But the Griz games are still the things I love the most aobut college and my experience keeps getting better! ;)

Gossip Girl!

My favorite TV show at the moment is Gossip Girl. Gossip Girl is a fairly new show that is only in it's 3rd season, but it already has such a huge fan base. This show isn't a show that many of us can relate to, but I think that makes it even more interesting. The characters in Gossip Girl do not have the average life any teenager that I know. The show is based around a group of people in high school that live in the Upper East Side in Manhattan. They are all very privileged, have a lot of money, get into the best clubs, and of course being true to it's name, there is a TON of gossip.
The whole show is based off of a website called gossip girl. Every time someone send in a picture or a tip of any good juicy gossip, all the kids get a text and all the drama gets passed around that way. Although Gossip Girl has plenty of gossip there is also things that everyone can relate too. The kids go through all the drama that teenagers have with their parents and friends. They also go through their first loves, and the heartbreak that goes along with having that first relationship. The show is fun to watch because although I didn't grow up on the upper east side, it is really fun to imagine what they would have been like. It is also fun because it reminds us that wherever we grow up whether it be in Manhattan or Butte, Montana, all teenagers go through the same stuff. My favorite character is Blair Waldorf. Blair is the biggest bitch on the show and probably causes the most drama, but once she opens up she is the nicest most caring one on the show. So Gossip Girl is pretty much amazing and if you haven't watched yet you all should totally tune in Monday's and 8 on the cw! ;)
