It Seems Like Years Since It's Been Clear

Let's talk about how awesome my life is rn/how awesome this year will be:

~KYLIE CONCERT IN MAY DID I MENTION THAT? I WILL BE DEAD OF FLAIL BY THEN.

~New Gaga song came out recently. Just a remix of a song from the new album, BUT STILL. May is going to be such a good month. And Born This Way comes out so soon! On my mother's birthday, in fact.

~New Britney too!

~Maybe even new Kylie but idk about that.

~Valentine's Day is soon and I have someone to spend it with.

~My Hello Kitty nail polish is awesome rn. My nails are just the perfect length/shape and it is awesome.

~I'm getting into Girls Aloud (again). HOW ARE THEY SO AWESOME. And hot. How are they so hot? Mysteries of life.

~AMERICAN IDOL STARTED AGAIN AND THIS SEASON IS ALREADY AWESOME. I love J.Lo so much. I feel like she's my long-lost aunt. Her sense of humor is like exactly like my family's and some of her inflections are even like ours. And we're not even Hispanic. (We're Italian and she comes from the same neighborhood my parents are from. Which isn't nearly as bad as she makes it sound sometimes.) Of course ontd_ai makes it even better. It's just so much fun to watch it with a big group.

~I'm following the best tumblrs rn. So many gorgeous picturesjsdfhsjdf.

~My team signed two big names who could potentially be awesome. SUDDENLY THE TEAM DOESN'T SUCK ANYMORE. I mean, they're old and there's a good possibility they won't be awesome, but right now I have hope. And that feels good after the gutting the team had in the offseason. So many of my favorite players left.

~It's one of Boyfriend's best friend's birthdays on Friday and we're going to Gasparilla (which is like Florida's Mardi Gras). BEADSSSSSS. I've never been before and I am so excited but I have nothing hot to weaaaaar and I'm the hottest girl so I need to step up my game. I am so not used to being the hottest in a group. The natural order of the world is all off-kilter rn.

~I love neopets.

KBAI.

OH MY GOD YOU GUYS OH MY GOD OH MY GOD KISH MAUVE IS MAKING A NEW ALBUM OH MY GOD CAN 2011 GET ANY BETTER??????????? SALDKFJSDKFLJSKDFJSKDFJ KSLDFJKLSDJ DYING HERE DYING SO HAPPY DEAD.

Several important things:

-Britney Spears is currently in the hospital being given a mental evaluation. If something serious happens to her, well, I won't be finding out late like I did with Anna Nicole. And you know what? No matter how useless she is as a human being these days, I'm genuinely saddened and concerned for her. http://ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com is, of course, taking care of any and all updates, for any person out there who may care at all.

-Also, some people won some thing in Iowa. I won't give a hoot until October about politics. I can't stand the thought of getting all attached to someone, only to have them cruelly snatched from my hands by the primaries. But I do want you to tell me: is who won/how the candidates placed a surprise? How do you all feel about it?

-Oh, and one of the news anchors on Fox 13's Good Day Tampa Bay show is retiring. I grew up hearing this man EVERY DAY before I went to school, and I'll miss him. It was his on-air partner (who is not retiring) who informed me that George Harrison had died. I don't know why I'm suddenly so chatty, considering my last post was about how I can't form coherent sentences. I still can't, I think. Anyway, happy retirement, Bill Murphy.

Man, I need sleep. Also, I'm REALLY cold. Colder than usual. My mother is currently possessed by the devil, there's no other explanation.

K, Edited to close one of my bold tags. This is what I get for HTML-ing without sleep.

Today was my nineteenth birthday. I didn't get nearly as many presents as I have in years past, but that's okay. I bought myself a vintage/used bangle in Ybor (where my parents took me + boyfriend) and three necklaces in a Claire's down there. I'm telling you, no matter where I am as long as there's a Claire's I'm happy. It's weird, but I walk into one and I feel an immense sense of peace, like the way religious people feel when they go to church or something. Yeah, I'm weird.
My grandparents gave me a cookbook and a Beatles book that I (surprisingly!) didn't already have. They were really pleased about that, although now my grandmother expects me to cook. Oh dear.

I also got a perfume gift set. I'm horribly allergic- well not really allergic, but I get the worst freaking migraines from most perfumes. It's really horrible because sometimes I can't even be near someone wearing perfume or cologne, and very very horrible because I love scents. I treasure my sense of smell immensely. I can often identify people by their scent or guess what someone smells like before I get close enough to smell them.
BUT.
Somehow, through all of her sluttifying and babymaking and cheetos-eating, Britney Spears managed to make perfumes I can actually tolerate... and that I actually like.
I adore Curious (and wore it daily last year) and when she came out with a modification of it (called In Control) I loved it too. And today I got a gift set!
A huge black bottle with an In Control charm thing and one of those old-fashioned spray thingies. A rather large lipgloss that smells like white cake and butterscotch and has glitter (it's called Wild Side). A scented lotion. And a pink jewelry box that has a removable inner container with space for lots of rings, a thing for earrings, a "secret compartment" and some general space. And you can take it out and fold it up and snap it closed and carry it around! And the jewelry box has a mirror in it too.
I consider it to be one of the best birthday presents ever ever ever.

So while we were in Ybor, we were wandering around and saw CHALK WRITING. I got three pictures of three Jacob Christiano chalk writings. That was pretty cool.
And then I had steak at an Outback. Sometimes a girl just has to eat animal flesh, you know? I know, I'm horrible.

My boyfriend gave me a tiny teddy bear. <33 (More presents pending, of course. My boyfriend is not cheap :D)

I have to say, right now, that he is the absolutely most perfect person in the entire world ever. And he likes my new perfume. (Note to self: stop sniffing self. It's weird.)

It was a rather uneventful birthday as birthdays go, but I think things went pretty well.

My mother says another present is coming in the mail, so that's pretty cool.

I'll post the Jacob Christiano pictures up sometime next week. I was in such a hurry to take pictures of them I forgot to even read them, heh. But it's still cool to see some of his stuff on my birthday. I wasn't expecting that.

I hope you all had lovely Thanksgivings.

Birthday love from,
Ivyette @ 1:14 AM


EDIT:
This is the set I got. http://www.amazon.com/Curious-Britney-Spears-Control-Holiday/dp/B000JLHPBC
I have no idea why the picture is so small.
I'd like to think the one my mother bought was cheaper than that. I certainly hope so!
