a horrible yucky rainy friday :( i'm working late tonight, but when i work late i put my country radio station on from home online and it makes me happy. yay for country music. lets see if i can infuse this into the office during the day...
so just working a lot, waiting to get the thesis back and trying to figure out what to do with all of this free time i have acquired... so as the irish weather is great and i don't want to go to the pub all the time i've been watching some tv and reading for pleasure.
so i know i have discussed irish tv before, but after wednesday night i just have to laugh. so there isn't much original irish programming on the television, rte does do a few shows - some are good, some are ok and most are just horrible. and they show a lot of american shows, some are only a week behind the states, while some are whenever they feel like showing it. it is sooo random what they show and they also looove reality tv over here! between all the crazy british and then american reality shows and the occassional irish ones. and they love showing random movies, pretty much any night one of the channels is showing a movie. so rte 1/2 generally show the normal programs, this is where most of the american series are and then tg4 is the irish language channel, which randomly shows some english programs, and then tv3 which is the trashy tv channel. like all the redic crazy us/uk reality shows and just really random ones. they loooove the 'i weigh 32 stone' type of shows as well as the makeover and some of the best uk trash! so wednesday night was pretty amazing on tv. first was an american show, crowned - the mother/daughter beauty pagent show. it was pretty crazy, seriously who goes on these types of shows? and whaaat must people think of americans with this show? that is what i want to know. now i know why so many people think americans are stupid and crazy, they see tv like this. so that was entertaining. then a new uk reality show called celeb air. they had 10 uk celeb, who i had no idea who ANY of them were. and they were working as flight attendants and other things. it just made me laugh. and then my favourite of the night - a super trashy uk mom and her 11 year old daughter who wanted to be in beauty pagents and model. so they went to texas to compete in some random pagent. it was priceless. the mom was crazy and you could tell she was pushing her daughter to do this and the daughter normally looked like 15. it was just horrible. there really are no words to describe this. ohhhh well.
otherwise nothing really super exciting going on. i've become boring, and i don't like that. i wish the weather was going to be nicer this weekend because i'd love to get out of the city for the day and just go to a cute little town or something nearby that i haven't explored. maybe next weekend? oh well. hope everyone has a good weekend :)
