Gotta Have It!

This is sort of a spin-off of my last post, So Over-rated.


Here is a list of things that I absolutely totally love, where others might not.


1.  Reality TV.  I'm such a sucker.  I LOVE Biggest Loser, Teen Mom, The Amazing Race, American Idol, Dancing/Skating With the Stars, So You Think You Can Dance, and some others. 


2.  Soap Operas.  Well, really Soap Opera in my case.  I'm not one of those that watches them from morning until afternoon ;)  But I absolutely love General Hospital.  I didn't even know it existed until Eric's mother introduced it to me, but I've been hooked ever since.  <3  Never miss a day! 


3.  My collections.  A couple years ago a friend got me to join a website where you can join all kinds of swaps.  One of the first ones I noticed was a postcard swap.  It sounded interesting, so I joined.  Yeah, yeah, yeah, I've been hooked ever since ;)  See a pattern here?  haha.  But really though, I love it.  Getting postcards allows me to see places that I might never get to see otherwise.  Who knows when/if we'll have money to travel the world.  So why not travel through postcards in the meantime?  I've now expanded into souvenirs (especially magnets - my fridge is covered!) and foreign coins. 


4.  Soda.  I've heard of people going so far as to not even allow soda to enter their house, but I gotta have it!  I am addicted to Pepsi.  I know it's bad for me but I just can't quit drinking it.  Hey, there are worse things to be addicted to, right?  ;) 


Speaking of addicting things, that brings me to


5.  Facebook.  Oh..my..gosh, what in the world happened to me?  I used to be a total myspace freak.  But then everyone left and joined facebook.  So I thought, why not?  Let's see what all the hype is about.  Ahhh!!!  Now I'm on there several times a day.  I check it from my phone.  It's ridiculous, LOL.  But I can't stay away from it :P

So over-rated

A few of my friends have done this so I thought I'd follow :)

Here is my list of over-rated things.  Others love 'em.  I just don't see the big deal.


1.  Starbucks.  I just don't get it.  At all.  But maybe that's just because I can't stand coffee?  ;)

2.  Justin Bieber.  Seriously?  That's all I have to say about that.  :)

3.  Big fancy cars.  Again, seriously?  I see 2010 or 2011 something something xyz123's all over the place.  I'm perfectly happy with my 1998 Ford Windstar.  As long as it gets me from A to B, I don't really care about anything else. 

4.  Expensive children's clothing.  What the heck is the point?!  Someone *please* tell me.  They are only going to wear them for what, a couple months?  Why not buy from Wal-Mart or a consignment store and use the money you'll be saving on something else?  :) 

5.  Blu-Ray.  I'm perfectly happy with my regular DVD's and VHS tapes, thank you :)  Although with the way technology is, everything will probably be blu-ray eventually anyway :-/ 

That's all I can think of right now, but if I come up with any more I'll come back and edit
