television post.

first of all, how do i get this job??

watch trashy tv shows every week, comment on their realisticness or lack thereof, write cute fun commentary, and get paid? yes, please.

secondly, project runway, especially this season is bullshit. victorya's dress last night, while a semi-cute cut (for a day dress!) was freaking TACKY. not prom enough, not done enough, not good enough. and she didn't even seem happy about winning. no crack of a smile. can you imagine how adorable sweet P would have been if she had won? she probably would have cried, she'd have been so happy. her dress was GORGEOUS. fit perfectly, was super-flattering, very glam, very prom, exactly what her client wanted. COME ON.

and kevin off before RICKY? really?! everyone already knows my love for kevin, but i'm also simply amazed that ricky, who keeps putting forth SUCH a minimal effort, keeps getting his little pat on the back. yes, kevin's dress was bad. although i quite honestly think ricky's was worse. at least jevin used color!! as for ricky's, that little jeweled belt-type thing at the waist was tacky, the color (or lack thereof) was horrific, the dress was terribly unflattering, PLUS it looked like lingerie and we get it, ricky, you like your lingerie. one dimensional son of a...

and speaking of one dimensional, nate said it before, and i'm beginning to agree, while i think rami's draping is lovely...i mean, it's draping. again. and it better be fabulous every time you do it because you do it every time. i'm surprised during the menswear challenge he didn't make a toga.

i think i'm done ranting now. i'm just angry that the judges have their favorites and it's just so terribly obvious. i mean, that's just not the point of the show. a few seasons from now, i'm sure top chef is gonna turn into the same thing. they all start out with the best intentions...

a shame.

in other news, i have a slight sore throat and i'm keeping myself busy chugging anything that looks like it might have vitamins so i don't get sick. any other advice? preventative measures, people.
