TV Squad: ‘America’s Next Top Model’ – ‘Welcome to New Zealand’ Recap
(S14E08) The remaining six girls on 'America's Next Top Model' arrive in their foreign destination: New Zealand. My favorite episode of 'ANTM' has to be the go-sees because the show becomes the knock-off 'The Amazing Race' for a few minutes. The same rules apply to having good taxi drivers and never getting out of the taxi to run to your destination.

PS. Dear Tyra, stop giving Alexandra up-nose shots.
TV Squad – ‘Dancing with the Stars’ – ‘Performance #5: Results’ Recap
(S10E11) We're at the halfway point on 'Dancing with the Stars' and I still can't tell much of a difference between Brooke's execution with Samantha Harris'. Her clothing choices are still questionable and only once in this episode did she have any genuine emotion. The show quickly announced that Erin & Maks are safe. Later on in the episode, when several safe couples got interviewed by Brooke, I realized that Erin should take Brooke's job; her sarcasm and quick wit could match Tom's.
TV Squad – ‘Dancing with the Stars’ – ‘Performance #5′ Recap
(S10E10) With Kate Gosselin gone from 'Dancing with the Stars,' the show can finally get to actual competition. Her disappearance from the bottom of the score board has now vanquished scores below 20. The contestants have two dances: either the Samba or Argentine Tango and the Swing Dance Marathon.
Music Review: Hamilton de Holanda Quintet – Brasilianos 2
If Brasilianos 2 was a racer, it would have unleashed its turbo rocket boosters early to get ahead of the pack, only to cool off and found its right tempo at the end. While all of the songs by the Hamilton de Holanda Quintet are fresh and original, the opening three tracks are hectic, fast paced, and not a good example of what the rest of the album holds. The strength of Brasilianos 2 comes from it's slower tempo songs. Each musician in the Hamilton de Holanda Quartet gets a chance to be showcased without feeling like they are fighting for attention.

Long time no blog…again
Inconsistant. That's probably the best word to describe my blogging on my own personal site. That's gotta suck a bit. I mean I'm sure there are people out there that look at this and go: well, I'm never going to look at this again. Whoops. I lost another reader.
Well, I've been busy, like every time my blog slows down. This time it was in the name of fashion. My New Paltz friends over at JAM Asia asked me (me?) of all people if I could help out with their fashion and talent show and I, being the nice person that I am, wholeheartedly agreed. Here's an image of my work:
Bota rocking my wedding dress I made
I called the scene Harajuku Wedding. Mostly just an excuse to design that wedding dress. Well, if you wanna call it that.
I've also applied to Grad School during my short hiatus blogging. Of course, I've decided to put all my eggs in one basket, so if that goes blech, then I'm pretty much screwed on that part.
Finally, I spent the last weekend up in Plattsburgh with Mark. We stared at old cars. Like this one:
The museum started off as fans of Loziers. It was quite a quaint place.
Anywho, I'm back. Hopefully for a longer period of time.
Jay was totally robbed
I don't often get the opportunity to voice my opinions on Project Runway, or other reality shows outside of TV Squad, but I realized one big thing: Jay was robbed last week for making it into the finals. Mila's outfits skewed old and outdated, while Jay represented a very fashion-forward thinking. While I'm not going to gush over all his pieces, I do think that he didn't pick the correct three outfits to show to the judges. I found his final (decoy) collection on YouTube and wanted to share it with ya'll.
I'm convinced that he should have picked one of the two flowing dresses, preferably the black/almost purple one to counter Mila's mention of experimenting with a little bit of purple.
Either way, I wish Jay the best.
