It's raining right now! I'm so utterly shocked.......NOT. When will this rain end? &lt;strong&gt;Reminder: Check Weather updates for rest of the week.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La la la. Anywho, the real reason I convinced myself to update once more on the same day is because I wanted to blog about a certain situation in particular. I love catching news on celebrities. Rumors and Gossip happen to be my friends when it comes to them. My current topic is on none other than the JOBROS (Jonas Brothers, for those who live in a bubble and have no idea who they are) as well as Taylor Swift (AHHHHH!!! Favorite!!).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe you've heard this before, maybe you haven't. Either way, I'm just spreading the word :).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 324px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 324px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i1016.photobucket.com/albums/af290/TVOADblog/july2009%20blog/20254437-20254440-slarge.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fans of Taylor Swift (like MEEEE) already should know that any song penned by T.S. are usually quite honest and open about her life. Her album "Fearless" was...well...majority of it (or possibly all?) was written about her ex Joe Jonas. Now, I'm sure you're thinking in your head OKAY MARISSA, I already know this, but hey wait! I'm getting there. So Taylor Swift's way of solving a problem? Write a song!! Poor Joe. However, they're GREAT songs......anyways.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 181px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 166px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i1016.photobucket.com/albums/af290/TVOADblog/july2009%20blog/JONASnew.png" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Guess who released a new album only a short time ago?? No, not T.S. (Sadly...). The Jonas Brothers. Their album is called "Lines, Vines, and Trying Times." Not really my kind of music, but as I've said in another post, they ARE improving somewhat. Recently I read an article about one of their songs called "Much Better." BRAVO JOE. Striking back at Taylor Swift, yes? Guess that Jonas Brother has had enough of Taylor Swift's insults in her songs. It was time he penned a song about HER. Here are the lyrics to the beginning of the song.....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Get a rep for breakin' hearts&lt;br /&gt;Now I'm done with super stars&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;And all the tears on her guitar. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;I'm not bitter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hahahah! The first time I read these lyrics I really think I laughed out loud! Not because I hate T.S. but because it's just funny to see celebrities fight through their song lyrics. If you don't know (again, have you been living under a rock?!?!?!) the song "Teardrops on My Guitar" was written by T.S. although I'm not sure it was about Joe Jonas originally....he plays on that in this song. Oh man. He even goes on to say that the girl in front of him is much better than T.S. OUCH! Major ouch...I believe he wrote that about Camille Belle (the girl in front of him). However, I've read that Camille has broken up with Joe. Bigger ouchh..Watch it Joe. You're really going to have a REP now! Check out "&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZjN58_86PoU" target="_blank"&gt;Much Better&lt;/a&gt;."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P.S. In Taylor's defense, Joe Jonas DID break up with T.S. in a 27 Second phone call. I bet that felt great.... !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyways, signing off. Future bloggage to come in later days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;xoxo,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img style="BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BACKGROUND: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px" src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/243/CE3E9E55672BE96A57C2BEBFBE10D3E0.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3096515747007571033-2826845266873671384?l=tvoad.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tvoad.blogspot.com/feeds/2826845266873671384/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://tvoad.blogspot.com/2009/07/rain-joy.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3096515747007571033/posts/default/2826845266873671384'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3096515747007571033/posts/default/2826845266873671384'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tvoad.blogspot.com/2009/07/rain-joy.html' title='Rain, rain, go away.'/><author><name>Marissa</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00377202508088252930</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://i1016.photobucket.com/albums/af290/TVOADblog/july2009%20blog/th_rain460.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3096515747007571033.post-1371789808761053657</id><published>2009-07-29T11:26:00.004-04:00</published><updated>2009-07-29T16:25:52.510-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='movies'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fun'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='marissa'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Books'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='music'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='exercise'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='family'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='food'/><title type='text'>Ode to Families and....AAHH First Post!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://i1016.photobucket.com/albums/af290/TVOADblog/july2009%20blog/FamilyStudies.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="http://i1016.photobucket.com/albums/af290/TVOADblog/july2009%20blog/FamilyStudies.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Today I woke up at the crack of dawn, AKA 10 in the morning. So refreshing. Summer is great! This week has been really foggy and lame. I believe it has rained every day. I LIVE IN NEW JERSEY, this just doesn't happen. What's up with this weather?!?!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today my mother told me she was heading to the &lt;strong&gt;magical world&lt;/strong&gt; of &lt;em&gt;Target&lt;/em&gt; for some shoppinggg ;) I was all for going to Target, just me and mommy by ourselves. BUT, then I found out she'd asked my other sisters to go as well. Figures...I'm the middle child of 3 daughters. My Poor dad. The only man in the house. I'm not really a favorite child of either of my parents. I'll lay down how it works in MY family. My dad is funny, sarcastic and outdoorsy. My little sister loves the Outdoors and nature and animals, etc etc. So, put them together and DING DING! We've found his favorite child!!! I can relate with my Dad better on most days though, and I'm probably closer to him...Daddy's girl....Haha. Now, my mother, it's easy to tell with her. My older sister always tells my mother everything about her life. Honestly, they act so similar (and look it too!) that besides the age difference they could be the same person! Now, when I try to tell my mommy stories about my life, she usually just doesn't hear me. :( How sad. And then she'll tell me I never talk to her about anything!!!! AHHH. Families. Can't live with them, but can't live without them! How are your families; anything like mine??&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BOOKS!! I'm a mad book-worm. Can't deny it. So Proud. :) Right now I'm currently reading a bunch of the classics. I've finished "Wuthering Heights." SO GOOD. I loved it. Oh, Heathcliff...Hmm. I do fancy the Twilight books a little too much, and have watched the movie WAY too many times (EDWARD CULLEN. That sums that up). I'm dying for "New Moon" to come out!! I can't lie, I'm waiting to see Jacob's tan gorgeous body. ;) I will be one of those girls in the back of the theater screaming their lungs out when Jacob AND Edward first come on:) It sucks though, for New Moon, Edward won't be in half of it.....I'm also reading my Bible (100% Christian). I'm just reading through the entire thing a little each day. My mother also bought me a book about waiting for the RIGHT guy to come around. It's called "&lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/Man-Worth-Waiting-Avoid-Bozo/dp/0446699713" target="_blank"&gt;A Man Worth Waiting For: How to Avoid a Bozo&lt;/a&gt;." Great title, huh? Lol! It's actually pretty good. I'd recommend it to anyone whose ever dated a jerk, or anyone who wants to avoid dating one! (And there are a lot of them!) Be warned, it's not a boy book, it IS a girl book. More book updates in later posts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 203px; HEIGHT: 271px" height="280" src="http://i1016.photobucket.com/albums/af290/TVOADblog/july2009%20blog/twilight_book_cover.jpg" width="274" /&gt; &lt;img height="273" src="http://i1016.photobucket.com/albums/af290/TVOADblog/july2009%20blog/9780446699716.jpg" width="196" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Music!! So my favorite song right now would just happen to be "From The Inside Out" by Hillsong United. It's a christian song, and it's amazing!!! I love the beginning especially. I'm one of those people who if they love a song, they'll play it a billionzillion times before they get tired of it! Hahaha. I think you should give a listen, &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tv0qZl_Qu84" target="_blank"&gt;Click&lt;/a&gt;. Tell me if you like it. Hmm, haven't really been a HUGE fun, but Demi Lovato's new album isn't entirely half bad...She has a really great voice. You should check it out. I've also listened to the Jonas Brothers album "Lines, Vines, and Trying Times" and I still can't say that I'm impressed by their music, but it seems to be improving a bit...maybe. I love The Fray's new album. (The Song "Never Say Never" is great! And it was on Transformers 2). &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6iSaIs5WCk" target="_blank"&gt;Listennn&lt;/a&gt;. Haha, I'll update music latteerr.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 195px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 195px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i1016.photobucket.com/albums/af290/TVOADblog/july2009%20blog/untitled.jpg" border="0" /&gt;Am I the only one addicted to DQ's Cookie Dough Blizzards!?!?! They're amazing, and so bad for me. Can you believe it is 720 calories??? That's more than I burn off when I run! More nutrition info. on it &lt;a href="http://caloriecount.about.com/calories-dairy-queen-chocolate-chip-cookie-i52928" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. I want to go the YMCA and do a pilates class and work out and such. I definitely should...I'm so out of shape. I'm starting up my running everyday again. It's hard to continue with it though. I'm so lazy. Anybody have any good diet/exercise tips? I'm in need!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Guess what I also need? A JOB!!! I'm always broke. No money. It sucks. It's so hard to find a job nowadays. I'll probably end up working as a waitress at some local diner or something of that sort. I gotta start applying to places....again. YAY. So fun. And on a more serious note. I'm one of those people who have absolutely no idea what they want to be when they're older. So annoying. Are you like that? Or am I just crazyy?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I should be signing off about now? Right. Leave me comments, etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You Know You Love Me (Gossip Girl!?!),&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img style="BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BACKGROUND: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px" src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/243/CE3E9E55672BE96A57C2BEBFBE10D3E0.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(AKA, Coolest Kid on the Block!) ;) &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3096515747007571033-1371789808761053657?l=tvoad.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tvoad.blogspot.com/feeds/1371789808761053657/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://tvoad.blogspot.com/2009/07/ode-to-families.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3096515747007571033/posts/default/1371789808761053657'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3096515747007571033/posts/default/1371789808761053657'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tvoad.blogspot.com/2009/07/ode-to-families.html' title='Ode to Families and....AAHH First Post!'/><author><name>Marissa</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00377202508088252930</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://i1016.photobucket.com/albums/af290/TVOADblog/july2009%20blog/th_FamilyStudies.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry></feed>
