day four.

it's day 4 of my "15 days of blogging" assignment, and this is one question i've been looking forward to answering. what are you guilty pleasures; tv show, food or music?

 

for tv mine is the same as about a million other americans: LOST. and yes, it does live up to its name and have you completely lost after only an episode or two. however it was completely addicting!! after school my senior year my friend kole and i would come straight to my house and lock ourselves in the basement for six hours of LOST. we did this until we caught up to season three, and for about 4 years after that it was a party every wednesday for the show, and anxiety at waiting for their constant "hiatuses" or "breaks" midway through seasons (that was so frustrating!) a couple of my friends have started rewatching it from the first season...something i think i'm definitely going to do!

as for music, that is an easy one. phil collins is possibly one of the sexiest bald men alive, not to mention his songs are incredible!! i absolutely love in the air tonight (of course..have you heard that drum breakdown?! fantastic!), i don't care anymore, and of course, against all odds, the most epic of all breakup songs.

he is a serious guilty pleasure of mine...don't tell anyone!

hilarious.

stumbled upon this picture today while cleaning my basement.... me and my little 6th grade gang. i found it absolutely hilarious so i had to share. esp for all the people who are in it... so funny!

three.

post about your favorite place in the world - a place you have visited often or have gone to more than once.

this was a no brainer for me. angel's landing in zion's national park is hands down the most beautiful place i have ever been. it is an incredibly strenuous hike (often with only a few feet of trail with thousands of feet of dropoffs on either side of you) and an absolute blast. i've only been three times; once with my family, once on spring break with some friends and an ex boyfriend, and once with one of my best friends ryan (pictured above).
every time it has pretty much changed my life!

day two...celebrity crushes.

it is impossible for me to pick just one celebrity crush....there are far too many good looking people to narrow it down. but here are some personal favorites of mine:

 

adam brody
he is just plain sexy. it's ridiculous.

 ashton kutcher

my total nerd crush.

 david duchovny

one word: x-files.

 

george clooney

because he's every girl's old man crush.

15 days of blogging.

 for one of my classes we have to do an assignment called "15 days of blogging." this consists of 15 days of steady blogging about a certain topic. this assignment has already taught me 2 things: 1. i hate being told what to blog about. (haha). 2. i'm not all that interesting of a person! haha.
but regardless, i'm excited for these next few posts, along with a few posts of my own, without being told what to blog about. :] enjoy!


day one: your name and 5 things people don't really know about you
my name is lauren and i'm pretty much an open book. however here are some things not everyone knows about me:
1. i am a closet history nerd. i love the history channel, studying politics of the past and even writing papers about such. i find it incredibly interesting and fun!
2. i am ridiculously accident prone. i have broken my finger running into a wall, cracked my elbow longboarding, broken my nose three times, and fallen down stairs/curbs at least once a week. i spill on myself and stub my toe daily. (my little sisters love to make fun of me). my most recent epic fail was in logan for a hannukah party, when i slipped on black ice and ate it. hard.
3. i'm fairly certain i was born in the wrong generation. i should have been a teenager in the 60's or 70's.
4. i have a bucket list of things i'd like to do before i die, including road trip to mexico, meet brandon boyd, volunteer in a third world country, and open my own bookstore/coffeeshop. a couple things i've already achieved off my list: go sky diving, meet damien rice and learn to play guitar.
5. i don't plan on ever getting married. weirdly enough i've never quite seen the appeal to it. 








tomorrow i get to post my celebrity crush...yay. happy wednesday!
