Isn't He Lovely


   I was watching Glee the other day, and I found an unexpected new lover, well, almost. Legs, wheels, hot wheels or as I like to call him, Artie Abrams. Artie is the only glee member, and the only person at the school, in a wheelchair. I felt bad for him during the first season, but then he just got annoying when he yelled at Tina and had a weird obsession with white rappers. But in this episode, he was actually the cutest thing I've seen. He came into his girlfriend's classroom and sang her "Isn't she Lovely" so she'd go to prom with him. Awwh! His voice was as smooth as his awesome wheelchair dance moves. After he mesmerized me with his romantic baby song, my mom asked me if, if he was real, would I go out with him. I asked her to answer first, and it took her a while to respond. I was shocked. Artie, if he was real, is one of the sweetest guys I've ever seen. His glasses are adorable, his sweater vest collection is incredible, his voice is fantastic and his obsession with white rappers, although creepy, is hilarious. Not to mention his kind little heart. She eventually said she would, even though she can't stand men that are shorter than her. I guess people can't see past appearances sometimes, no matter how hard they try. But it's okay, because if Artie magically became real, i'd be with him in a heartbeat and we could wheel into the sunset to live happily ever after.

A Group that Works Hard, and Plays Even Harder

Chicago; a city that works hard, and plays hard. I definitely had a fantastic time the city. The shows were great, the museums were fascinating and the people I went with are like my family. So when I heard that some of them did something in Chicago that was a little misguided, to say the least, I was mortified. I really thought they knew better than that. That since we were music students, we'd understand the horrors what that thing can do to you. But kids are kids, and it was a stupid decision. Even thought, I was horrified when I heard the news, I thought about something else. Something that made my stomach churn. Who would tell on them? I mean, they did something questionable, I understand that, but who would really dislike them so much to completely rat them out? What they did really didn't hurt anyone, or put anyone in extreme danger.  So the person who told on them obviously has some sort of vendetta against them. Everyone in the program is connected, though their love of music and playing together, as a family, in an ensemble. I don't know about you, but I would never rat out a family member for something so stupid. Even if I didn't agree with their choice of doing it.
