HS Reunion......

   So I have been thinking, don't worry I didn't hurt myself doing so! haha I don't know about all of you out there is the world, and I don't know if everyone has reunions at there school, but I was kinda looking forward to mine. I graduated in 1996 and I figured that the person that was designated to get the ball rolling on the 5 yrs reunion would do something, its 17 years later. Granted that my old friends may not want to see me but I would like to know what everyone is up too. I am not the person I thought I would be in high school that's for sure but its not like I didn't try but I don't think my life is all that bad, I raised a good boy, I worked at a bank till I got hurt and I got a book published. I know a lot of people from my high school have done exactly what they headed out to do and that's awesome I would like to hear about it and I think getting together and being crazy would be fun specially for a lot of us who don't have grown up time. So my thought is maybe I should start the ball the only thing is that I am not that good with organizing things, but then there is a first time for everything. The other thing that is a bit difficult is that I live in New Mexico and I graduated from Santa Paula High in California. Anyways that is my thoughts for today we shall see what I decide. Thank you reading my ramblings. Be safe all....

Boy Bands of the 90's

       So this post will probably make some of you mad, some of you laugh, and others just not want to read on but that's OK because I want to talk about this. Well just so you know I am a child of the 90's so boy bands were my thing and I will admit it to you I STILL DO like them alot... A friend recently went to a New Kids on the Block concert called the Package Tour. Well I started looking at her videos and pictures and I became a bit nostalgic and gitty like a teenager. Sad to say I found myself on you tube looking at old and new videos of NKOTB then I realized that the "Package Tour" was full of great acts all which I loved. 98 Degrees, and Boys II Men. If they would have added Backstreet Boys, N'Sync OMG it would have been massive... I don't really go to concerts but I love music so needless to say I probably know most of the words to the songs of these for-mentioned bands. I know the NKOTB were out of the lime light for many years and I was always a secret fan, well maybe not to secret, but I didn't care much what others thought. But when I was looking at the videos from the past and the videos from the concert I realized that Jordan Knight still makes me swoon. Don't laugh its true! A lot of you know that I am a HUGE Elvis Presley fan,  since the King of Rock n Roll is dead, the only other person that can get me all weak in the knees is Jordan Knight. So I have come to the conclusion that I have not out grown NKOTB. Watching all these videos made me want to hear all the cd's and tapes (yes I said tapes) I have hidden under my bed. It also made me realize that the music now a days is not as uplifting and positive as it used to be. I listen to a lot of different type of music lately I have been listening to country a little more it just seems that it is a lot more cleaner then some others, granted there are some artist out there that make great positive music and I do not be-little their work at all. I guess just listening to the old music took me back to those innocent days when music gave you that mushy feeling in the pit of your stomach, the days when falling in love was made to seem so simple and painless. The days when us girls had posters plastered on our walls of all the gorgeous guys in music or on screen. Since I kind of went off script, my point is NKOTB  has still got it they are older but can still make every women between the ages of 33-40 swoon and squeal like teenagers. Pretty much like Smokey Robinson does for women my mother's age. You men out there maybe rolling your eyes, shaking your heads and praying it doesn't start all over again. If you don't know the craze that NKOTB caused back then let me give you a little notion it was kind of like back in the 50's with the Beatles and Elvis Presley. Women oogled over the boys, men gritted there teeth watching their girlfriends, sisters, any female they knew fall over themselves just for Donny, Danny, Joey, Jonathan, and Jordan. I guess the good thing is that the men have grown up and us women are still girls at heart swooning over these very talented and HOT guys. Well this girl is going back on you tube for some more music videos don't judge me and if you do I frankly don't care. Hope you all have a good one .. Until the next time....
