For several reasons, I’ve been trying to eat healthier lately. The changing of seasons from winter to spring always makes me reach for the apples over the brownies (bikini season is almost upon us!), and I’ve been doing a lot of research on nutrition in the past few months. I’m slowly weaning out many processed foods, and I’m beginning with all frozen meals. Lean Cuisines, while giving you perfect portions and low calorie options are packed full of sodium, and the chicken they serve is not real chicken (Gross!). Knowing this, the idea of a Lean Cuisine makes me queasy. I’m trying my hardest to only eat the real deal. Grilled chicken only (no more red meat), fresh fruits and veggies, and the occasional bowl of wheat pasta – Unless it’s natural, I’m trying not to eat it. My body feels a million times better when I eat right. I have more energy and a happier attitude. It’s a win – win situation.
Now that I’ve shared with all of you my healthy eating ambitions, let me inform you that I also have the biggest sweet tooth ever. It took all the willpower I had to turn down cookies today for my last day of class. (They were freshly baked and warm too!) I just couldn’t cancel out all of the hard work that went into my run this morning – but I literally had a debate in my head (What’s one cookie, right?). I’m always eager to discover new hot spots that both curb my cravings and leave me feeling like I didn’t destroy three days of intense cardio in one sitting. Today I discovered such a spot.
My roommates have been raving about Red Mango – a frozen yogurt café. It serves non-fat, all natural, gluten-free (For B!) frozen yogurt. If that information doesn't send you running to the one nearest to you, there is more. They have an array of sides, many of them fruit such as berries, bananas, peaches, and pineapples to add to your delicious dessert. I may never eat fake ice cream anywhere else. I also checked locations: They are in Manhattan – can this get any better?
This evening, I ordered the regular size (which is plenty!), original flavor (tastes just like soft serve vanilla) frozen yogurt with strawberries and pineapples. The only negative is that each side is 50 cents, so my fruit cost me an extra dollar, but I still feel it was worth it. All together it came to $4.75. I personally don’t find that to be an unreasonable amount of money for dessert. The great taste and the healthy feeling afterwards made it worth the trip. I may go back tomorrow! If you have a Red Mango located near you check it out and tell me your thoughts!
Peace and Love All <3

And The Oscar Goes To...
The Super Bowl of Hollywood events occurred last night: The Academy Awards. Hundreds of Hollywood heavyweights sashayed down the red carpet stopping for countless photographs and interview after interview. The repeated question of “Who are you wearing?” was answered with wonderful names such as Armani Prive, Gucci, Valentino, and Chanel. There were certain celebrities who looked stunning – Sandra Bullock, Anna Kendrick, and I'm throwing Ryan Reynolds in here because he always looks gorgeous – celebrities who I would give a solid C+ – Sarah Jessica Parker, Charlize Theron, and Demi Moore – and celebrities who should have stayed home – Diane Kruger, Mariah Carey, and Tina Fey (although Tina Fey’s skit with Robert Downey Jr. had me falling off the couch laughing, so maybe not stayed home, but picked a better dress).
I absolutely love the Oscars. All of the glitz and glamour never ceases to make me envious of the lives of celebrities. My TV was tuned into E’s Red Carpet coverage (I have a soft spot for Ryan Seacrest) at 6pm as the less important people filed into the Kodak Theatre. I did not move from my spot until the awards wrapped up at Midnight. As with every year, there were some things I absolutely loved about the show, and there were things I hated.
Let’s begin with the bad…
-Too Long. This is an issue the Academy has been dealing with for years. I understand there is no easy solution, but at 3 ½ hours long, I was dying towards the end…and those are the best awards! An even three hours would have been tolerable.
- The short speeches given by friends and co-stars of the Best Actor/Best Actress nominees need to go. They do not help with the length of the show, and some I just found to be boring. Also there is a reason why I don’t watch Oprah everyday…so why was she on my TV during the Oscars?
- The “Kanye” moment of the show. The director who won for Best Short Documentary was interrupted during his speech by a woman who used to be associated with the project and wanted recognition. I thought it was awful how that man will never get his moment back.
Now for the good…
- Neil Patrick Harris’s opening. I personally believe he should be a part of every awards show. What a fantastic, talented, adorable guy!
- Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin hosting. I laughed at almost every one of their jokes and thought they were hysterical. My favorite moment when they were “caught” backstage wearing snuggies.
- Kathryn Bigelow and The Hurt Locker winning big! She’s the first woman to win an Oscar for Best Director. Enough said.
-Sandra Bullock’s acceptance speech. I wanted her to win, (there’s a good chance she won’t win again) and her speech was touching, funny, and eloquent. I’m so happy for her.
All things considered, it was quite a good show. There were a few winners, many losers, and lots of entertainment. I now have about twenty movies on my “to-watch” list, and I’m eager to see what brilliant work is born in the coming year in the world of cinema.

Spring Cleaning
I’ve been making a pros and cons list for moving back home after I graduate. I’m trying to think about how different it will be. Will there be a lack of freedom, more arguments, fewer arguments, better food? During all of my long breaks, I was living at home, but there was always a deadline. Three weeks here, three months here, and if things got annoying I played my “I’m going back to my apartment” card. This summer, it will be much different. I’m not going anywhere once September rolls around. I’m going to eventually find an apartment in New York, but that could be a year down the road (NYC is expensive!), so I know I’ll be home to stay, at least for six months or so.
My list reads something like this:
Pros
No Grocery Bill
No Rent (I hope!)
My big bed ☺
Better location
Lots of family/friends
Cleanliness!
New York, New York, New York
Cons
Less Privacy
Potential of more arguments with the Family
Sharing a bathroom with Scottie
Feeling less independent
No BLENK Roommates ☹
Number six on the pros list is cleanliness. This is a big pro for me! Sure, my bedroom has been known to get cluttered and clothes find their way to the floor instead of the closet, but clutter can easily be picked up. I’m talking about actual cleanliness. I went downstairs to find B cleaning our kitchen this morning. I cannot tell you how grateful I was! Our kitchen was disgusting. Even the grossest person on the planet would see it and say, “Wow, you ladies need to clean.” We are all to blame, but the frustrating thing is how it never stays clean. My plan is to travel to Target next Friday and buy a ton of cleaning supplies for the spring. Since all of my work will be completed by next Friday, and I’m not leaving Columbus until Monday, it’s a perfect weekend to give “spring cleaning” a new name. Hopefully it will stay clean until I arrive back from Spring Break on the 29th of March…wishful thinking?
My room needs lots of work as well. The dust traps really easily here, so I’m dusting it from top to bottom. I’m going through my entire desk, my entire closet, and all of my boxes and reorganizing. I’m tackling our bathroom, living room, and kitchen as well. Not to make anyone nauseous, but the last time we mopped our kitchen floor it was black. Since then I rarely enter my kitchen without wearing socks…I’m not kidding! I’m literally afraid to see what the floor looks like this time. This has the potential to be a weekend long event, but I’ll have the time, and it needs to get done!
So back to the pros of living at home: Our kitchen floor is NEVER black, our living room carpet does not have food crumpled on it, the house gets dusted and the bathrooms are always clean. I think I’ll enjoy living at home again for a while…even if I am sharing a bathroom with a 16 year-old boy. ☺

Do I See Sunshine?!
For the third morning in a row, I have woken up to sun shining through my window and birds chirping outside. Spring has (almost!) sprung. Again, I do not want to jinx Ohio weather. When I took my college tour on April 7th, 2007 – it snowed! It was Easter weekend, and when I asked the tour guide if this was a fluke, she shook her head and said, “no this is pretty standard.” I should have known I was going to be in for a few rough winters.
Spring brings flowers, sunshine, t-shirts, runs outside and new Broadway shows to the Great White Way! You all know how much this Jersey Girl loves NYC and Broadway. Even though I still have a million shows I need to see, I’m so excited for some new shows heading into previews and openings. John Gallagher Jr., who won a Tony for his performance in Spring Awakening (I was so blessed to both see him perform in that role and meet him afterwards!), is starring in a new musical titled “American Idiot.” It focuses around a bunch of young people trying to find meaning in a post-9/11 world. Now, I may seriously be the last Green Day fan in the world, but I love their stuff. Every song in the musical is a cover of a Green Day song. I have seen clips, and think this show will be fantastic, moving, and powerful. Previews begin March 24th. Opening night is April 20th – my birthday! It’s a sign!
My wishes were also answered about a month ago when I was watching “Fox and Friends” one morning and Kristin Chenoweth was on – what a breath of fresh air she is! She stated that she’s going to be in a musical titled “Promises, Promises” with none other than Sean Hayes (Jack from "Will and Grace"). I may have leapt off my bed at the sound of this news. Chenoweth originated the role of Glinda in Wicked and has also starred in many TV shows and movies including appearances on Glee and a role in the movie Annie with Kathy Bates and Audra McDonald. She is a joy to see and I will be purchasing those tickets as soon as possible! Previews begin March 27th. Opening night is April 25th.
My Spring Break will also be packed to the brim with Broadway shows. I’m going to see "Memphis" in late march with my brother and his band class. I told him to tell his teacher I would chaperone for a chance to go! Luckily, he said I could just attend with them – no chaperoning needed, and I still got the student price! Not chaperoning was a sigh a relief – It's a tad difficult to chaperone a bunch of high school kids when you attended high school with them! I heard Memphis is awesome and many celebrities have been attending it recently, so I know I’m in for a treat. Mom mentioned in her blog yesterday that she is going to purchase tickets to "Next to Normal" for her and I to see during this spring break vacation. I’ve been bugging her since Christmas to see this with me, and as we all know, in order to get things done with mom we have to do them ourselves, but I’m keeping optimistic. Don’t dash my hopes and dreams Tish! Lastly, My best friend in the entire world is turning 21 on March 31st. I unfortunately will be in my first week of classes for the spring quarter and will not be able to be with her for it. To make up for my poor college choice – who goes to college eight hours from home?! – I’m taking her to the city in late March for a “day of fun with Kate,” and we will be getting tickets to see "Wicked". We both have wanted to see Wicked for years now, and this is our opportunity. No worries, I’m not ruining any surprise by telling the blog world this information, she never reads this anyway ☺

Thursday Excursions
Hello Blog world! Sorry I’ve been MIA for the last day or so. The last week of the quarter starts on Monday, and I have an insane amount of work to complete. Last night I was up till the wee hours of the morning writing paper #1, and I just finished paper #2 five minutes ago. My narrative project is next on my “to-do” list, so I figured I would stop by and see what everyone is up to on this lovely Thursday night. Columbus, Oh saw sunshine for the first time in weeks today, and it was a glorious sight! I came home from class to begin my paper at around 1:30 and threw open my shades and my window. Approximately seven minutes passed before I realized it was still freezing out, but the sun was shining so who cared! I really do not want to jinx Columbus weather, as we all know ANYTHING can happen, but we hit 40 degrees today, and it looks like it will be in the 40’s all next week. Could the disastrous, leg numbing, frost biting, winter weather be over? Who can say, but I’m keeping my fingers crossed!
Tonight E and I went to United Dairy Farmers (UDF) for some yummy ice cream. I decided, for strict studying purposes, to forgo the healthy eating for tonight and get Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream on a cone. It was quite possibly the best ice cream I’ve had in a long time (perhaps because it wasn’t fat free). One thing I’ll miss when I graduate is ice cream runs with the roommates. UDF is about four houses away from us on the corner of 12th and High, and we love standing in the ice cream line in our sweats when cute guys are in line buying beer ☺. The sights on the street are entertaining during our excursions as well. Tonight E and I accidentally walked in the middle of a group of people walking to a party. We just acted like we belonged. The one guy was talking about how much he enjoyed “their wolf pack.” I nodded along eating my ice cream cone – we quickly turned to go to our apartment seconds later, laughing at the awkwardness that can be ice cream runs.
When we finished our ice cream a game of Mario Kart was played. Luigi beat both Yoshi and Bowser - anger and foul language was surrounding our living room. I forgot how much fun that game was when we were kids. Guess what: It is still so much fun. Perhaps even more fun, because it is a good reason to put off homework (Every college student needs a break right?) As I sit in my bedroom typing away, I hear something I have not heard in a long time on a Thursday night…silence. It seems like everyone is punching out last minute homework assignments like I am tonight. Wish us luck! Winter quarter 10’ at Ohio State is winding down. Spring Break is right around the corner.

Dancing With The Stars
So, I have never watched one season of Dancing with the Stars. I really do not have time to watch that much T.V anymore, but my DVR will most likely be set to record the upcoming season that is featuring some really awesome entertainment.
I’m super excited to see some of these “stars” glide across the dance floor…
- Evan Lysacek is the one I want to win. I watched in awe as this gorgeous figure skater spun his way to GOLD in the 2010 Olympics, and I think he has a serious shot at winning DWTS as well. What’s not to like. Good looks – check, Good dancing skills – check, umm…Good looks. You see where I’m going with this. I hope he is a top contender!
- Nicole Scherzinger of the Pussycat Dolls will also be competing. I don’t think she is a fair contender personally – the other contestants do not have the skills she has…I’m talking to you Buzz Aldrin! She’s a Pussycat Doll; of course the girl can dance. I have attempted many times (unsuccessfully!) to copy her moves in the “Buttons” music video – she should not have a problem staying in this competition. If she gets the votes, I’m sure she’ll be a top contender as well.
- Chad Ochocinco of the Cincinnati Bengals is another performer I’m excited to watch. I really enjoy this guy! I was impressed with his skills on the football field, and, I’ll be honest, I love how he changed his name to Ochocinco - which is his Jersey number. Who does that? Marketing geniuses do, that’s who. I’m sure he’ll make me laugh, and I’m hoping he’ll surprise the viewers the way Emmett Smith did a few seasons back.
Now the people who make me NOT want to watch this show…
- Kate Gosselin needs to go away already. She is ruining my name! No one wants to see or hear from her anymore. And doesn’t she have eight kids at home? Who will be watching them while she is performing in L.A? Jon? Dear God, I hope not. Kate, here’s some advice: Go raise your kids in Pennsylvania, and stay out of the public eye for a while. Maybe then your children will have a slight chance at living normal lives.
- Pamela Anderson: I’m over you as well. Yes, we all know you were gorgeous on Baywatch, but that ship has sailed. I’m not excited to see you and your triple Ds shaking it on the dance floor in skimpy outfits that someone your age should not be wearing. You’re another one who should go home and raise your children.
Here is the complete list of the 2010 contenders. With a few negatives, I think this could be a talented group of people. I’ll be watching when the show airs Monday, March 22nd. Will anyone else be tuning in?

Let's Talk Books
I love books! I love reading on the beach, in my backyard, on the oval, in my bed, on the floor – seriously any down time I have is usually spent with a book of some sort. Books are wonderful. Any world, at any time, with anyone can be yours with the turn of a page. I love all types of literature including classics, fiction, non-fiction, thrillers, mysteries, romance, historical fiction and all others I'm forgetting. It’s obviously no shock to anyone that I’m an English major, and English majors are required to read lots and lots of books. In previous quarters, I have taken classes that required obscure reading that I would never have picked up on my own (perhaps that’s why professors choose these books?). This quarter, I have class after class filled with modern, intellectual novels – many I would easily pick up at Barnes and Noble on a Sunday afternoon. The picture above this post is all of the books I’m required to read this quarter. Looks fun doesn’t it?! I won’t go into detail about all of the books I’m reading, but I did want to discuss a few I found most especially interesting…
I’m taking an English class that focuses on one major author of the 20th century. There is quite a lot to choose from in that category – Faulkner, Hemingway, Fitzgerald (and that’s just a few from the U.S.). My class focuses on four works by the British-Indian writer Salmon Rushdie. Perhaps some of you have heard of him? A super quick history lesson: Rushdie was educated in England and wrote a novel titled The Satanic Verses in 1988. The next year Ayatollah Khomeini (the Supreme leader of Iran) issued a Fatwa against Rushdie (a call to all Muslims to assassinate him) because his novel was, they claimed, anti-Islam and anti-Mohammad. Of course these people never read the novel, so how would they know, but that’s a discussion for another day. The Fatwa was lifted in 1998 – almost ten years later! Okay history lesson over – I swear I’ll try not to do that again.
The four novels we focused on in class were "Haroun and the Sea of Stories", "Midnight’s Children", "The Satanic Verses", and "The Moor’s Last Sigh". If you are in the mood for a challenging, intellectual read then these novels are for you. In most of Rushdie’s novels he creates a fictional plotline and ties it together with Indian culture and politics. I’ve been obsessed with India since seeing “Slumdog Millionaire” last year, so this was right up my alley. "The Satanic Verses" was the most challenging for me, but once you finish, it leaves you with an entirely different outlook on some of life’s great issues – especially religion. Rushdie, in my opinion, is not anti-Islam or anti- religion. His only focus is on questioning everything. Question the believers and the non-believers. Question science, question faith, and question yourself daily in order to gain a better perspective of the world around you. Not that any of you would be interested, but my class does have a blog where we discuss Rushdie and his works. If you're intrigued, check it out!
Books are magical things, because when read, they should (I hope!) make you think. That, in my opinion, is the best part. Are any of you reading anything of interest?
