Sing for me Darren, sing for me
Amazing right? Like, I don't even remember what Train's version sounds like anymore. I just picture Darren Criss singing it to me and that's all that matters. He's hands down the best thing to happen to Glee. As much as I love Lea Michelle's talent, 90% of the time I feel like I need her to get out of my face making Criss's interjection on the show that much more welcomed.

Bitch get your own table!
So this just happened. At school, in a study/cafeteria area, a girl on her laptop was occupying a small table (size of a desk), minding her own business. The area is full. A lady walks over to the girl and informs her that because she has food, and because the said girl isn't "doing anything", she should give up her spot so that said-bitch can sit down. The girl was clearly a bit thrown from this rude request, and agrees. Now, instead of sharing the table the lady JUST STOLE from the girl, she pulls it towards her end and leaves the girl to awkwardly rest her computer on her lap. The lady doesn't say, "oh is it okay if we share, so that I could have some place to eat?" No. straight kicked the girl out from her spot and took over. Fucked no? My god, I wanted to say something, OH MY GOD it was so hard to just sit there. I'm so lame like that, no balls sometimes. I also need to stress that this area is a first come, first serve type of seating place. No priority. It's not a restaurant. The cafe is there if you happen to be hungry.
I have a similar personal story. I was sitting at a Starbucks reading my book and drinking my latte when a lady (always fucking ladies that have the inner bitchiness to do this kind of shit) asks me if I want to leave my table and join some else's (some complete stranger) oh and BTW she left it to my discretion to now go table hunting table because SHE has nowhere to sit with her friend. Thanks for the offer bitchy-lady #2! I was soooo intimidated that someone could be so self righteous to impose that because I was alone I had no merit in sitting there enjoying myself at a two seater table. And because I was alone I had to GIVE UP my spot for her and her friend. I just told her I would be leaving soon anyway, and she stood over my shoulder, while I was packing up my shit, and basically pushed me out of Starbucks.
So what would most people do if the place was full? Fucking leave!!! you leave. If there's no room, you can wait around for a bit, but if nothing opens up...you leave!
Like who are these ladies to decide that what you are doing is inconsequential? Who are they to say that your time is up when they have just arrived themselves? Who are they to tell you that their pressing business trumps yours?
I wanted to pimp slap that lady in the face. And any other person like her.

Societal pet peeve of the day - bus etiquette special
Okay. Let's go over some simple social decorum. Bus is full. Bus doors open. If you're wanting to get into the bus, you WAIT for people to exit before you make your move. Easy right? No. It's evidently not easy at all. On the regular I have people who, when I'm trying to get out, start to force their way through the crowd. Just an unnecessary bustle. Drives me absolutely nuts. Also, while we're on the bus topic I may as well let the whole bus etiquette rant roll
1. On a full bus you TAKE OFF your overstuffed backpack because if I happen to be sitting, and you're standing, your backpack happens to be consistently hitting me in the face every time you turn around.
2. If you are seated in the upper front area of the bus, you are in the child and elderly people priority section. If the bus is full, or all the seats closest to the bus entrance are full, you GET UP and offer your seat. Once too many times have I seen a young punk sitting while an old lady, about to keel over, stands. NO. I'm by no means a saint, but I was raised with a Polish mum and that is like, a social requirement on public transit over there. If that kid wouldn't offer his seat in Europe, someone would offer it for him. Or tell him off. True story. Anyways, I am programmed, especially when sitting in that zone, to scan who comes on the bus to make sure i'm not jacking some old lady's seat.
3. Singing to yourself on the bus. Sometime people do this, people with ear phones. There are worst things, yes. But that's just plain awkward. No one wants to be embarrassed for someone else.
4. Loud and intrusive conversation for EVERYONE to hear. Again, keep that shit to yourself cause it's awkward. Don't involve the whole fucking bus in your business.
5. Let's assume the bus is rather empty. Must you sit right next me? Really?
I take the bus enough to feel that a lot of people are actually good on all of these things. Especially avid or daily commuters. I am one. And so when there's is that one inconsiderate son of a bitch that disrupts everyone trying to get from point A to point B (let's face it, no one rides the bus for the fun of it) and makes it that much worse....it gets a serious rise out of me.
Me and the UK girls
This sucks man. My chances of becoming royalty are now down to one prince.
William is engaged. He proposed to his longtime girlfriend Kate Middleton in Kenya last month. Love her. Love him. And I love so much that she isn't of great auspicious wealth - coming from, what the Royals would consider, a modest/common background. Can you imagine 30 years ago? During the Diana era? No way would the Queen have let that fly. Kate must of hustled hard and been really upstanding for the Royals to be down with a "commoner" in their lineage.
I've personally had an affinity for the Princes since I was really wee - and if I recall correctly, Princess Diana's death was one of my first exposures to a Media Shitshow. I remember being all up on that, watching the news everyday...listening to the speculations. I also remember the boys walking together with their Dad, very stoic and brave, on the day of their mothers funeral. Sad. So since then I had decided I'd marry Prince William and make him happy again. And now, me and the UK girls (especially) are heartbroken cause we only have Harry left. And I could be down with the ginge-prince cause he's wilder and more badass. And unconventional. Which equates to hope. Marry another commoner? Harry would .
I'm worried for Kate with all the paparazzi hounding and stalking. As we've seen in the past, it can be incredibly damaging. And it'll be bad, especially come wedding time. I hope she's strong enough for how relentless the media is going to be now that she's got mighty big shoes to fill - no doubt the brits are gonna be ruthless with the Diana/Kate comparisons - scrutinizing her every flinch. Oh and the WORLD is watching.
No big deal.
That's the trade off for stealing my fantasy and my Prince.

Paulina, That's My Name
I haven't yet had a Riri post. Don't let that fool you because I'm a closeted Rihanna super fan. And how much she's evolved as an artist is so wonderful to see. She's now so much more organic, mature and comfortable in her videos.
I also try to avoid the fact that she is only 22, (MY AGE) and like, a megastar. I feel like a such a loser. And speaking of losers, it appears that she's moved on from that Chris Brown fucker and is in a really good place.
And Drake too. Looks like a nice enough guy. He's Canadian (+1 off the bat) and I, personally, dig him.
So there they both are, cute as fuck.

Societal pet peeve of the day
Let's consider this; it's a relatively small walk way, a main artery, [if you will] that is narrow and flooded with people. How is it that you'll always get that cluster of people who decide it to be a good idea to stop IN THE THICK OF THE CROWD to have a conversation, hug, stand around etc. After repeatedly being "excuse-me'd" a million times, one would expect these people to feel out that they are seriously clogging crucial walkway and move. but they don't. they never do. At work, you'll have people who stand IN FRONT of the doorway between the patio and the lounge, get nudged repeatedly because they are in the way, and still STAND THERE. it boggles my mind, it lacks social decency. Next time, at school its a backpack in the face and at work it's tray in the rib cage.
I feel better now.
Feed your musical soul with my latest obsessions.
GOD, this song makes me wanna run ten km beach side or have the most rambunctious night of my life with friends. Dog days are Over for me is uplifting and different. You know those movies you see and they make you want to be that or share the feeling the main character is experiencing? For example I got that feeling after watching Blue Crush. I just wanted to surf pipe or save the world or something. But I digress...
Sigh. Florence and the Machine:
And how bout for some Mumford and Sons, The Cave? Yes. Let's have some of that too. One of those completely random videos that played on Much Music late night video flow. And its so so wonderful. You're welcome:

Let's introduce something new, shall we?
I've decided to expand. Maybe because Hollywood is limiting...but maybe because I also have more to say. Expect posts to range from culture to many my ridiculous thoughts (aka looking up or noticing completely random and irrelevant shit). I will continue to write about celebrity stories because its my obsession. And because sometimes I need to vent about how incomprehensible and ludicrous Hollywood truly is without anyone choosing to hear me or not.
Onwards and forwards. New day, new posts.
-PK.

Remember that time you went blowhead nuts on a porn-star in a hotel room? No? Sheen probably doesn't either.
Charlie Sheen was at the Plaza hotel in New York on a trip with Denise Richard and their children when his coke-binge-slut-threatening ways came to light again. In his hotel room (the girls and Richards were in another)Sheen decided to let the crazy out when he accused random pick-a-ho of the night Capri Anderson (said slut)of stealing his watch. Apparently he went nutter-butters and made Capri fear for her safety. Whilst the porn "star" was locked in the bathroom, Sheen took his fit out onto the room and caused, allegedly, thousands or dollars worth of damage. The police came and assessed the situation, Sheen has not yet been charged of probation violation ***
[*** In case you fail to remember the wonderful Oh-So-Sheen-Christmas where he tried to attack his then wife Brooke Mueller with a knife and threatened to kill her]
BUT the Capri is suing him for lots more than his watch is probably worth. Well, given his track record I don't blame her. Richards herself claimed that he used to be violent and often lost his shit on her -- 'member that nasty he said, she said war-of-words they had? He also has a long standing track record of hoes and blow. AND GUESS WHAT
Sheen's publicist says he's FINE! (the publicist Dina Lohan'ed that shit) -- nothing happened, Sheen is totally completely FINE and the incident was blown out of proportion by the media. fucking hate Hollywood.
Its people like the publicist, and the stupid show he works on (WHERE HE GETS PAID 1.5 MILLION AN EPISODE, FML)and aaaallllll the other yes people that blow hot air into Sheen's ass who enable motherfuckers like him to go on unpunished for their ridiculous and entitled behavior and still get paid more than any other actor on television.
and I MUST DIGRESS how the fuck does Sheen on 2 and a Half Mengarbageunfunnyshow, who only cracks shit jokes and has no acting range on the show other than truly playing himself, make more money then someone like Bryan Cranston who has 3 CONSECUTIVE Emmys for his dramatic and piercing role on Breaking Bad (if you haven't watched it, you suck and get on it). HOW???? fuck, I absolutely hate HATE this industry sometimes.
Anyways, I assume that Sheen will settle with Capri out of court to avoid having details emerge from that night that apparently never existed (according to Sheen's publicist). Heard she wants to testify at his probation hearing...so we'll see how that all unfolds because I have serious doubts that Sheen will face any consequences. And, in case you forgot, he will continue making more money than anyone of us could ever dream of having, and continue to make hookers lock themselves in bathrooms because of his inevitable wrath.
Unsettling? yes. Surprising? No.
