  Am I crazy or falling in love? Is it real or just another crush?

  -That's my song! I'll give you 3 guesses on who it's by, and the first 2 don't count. And I had to use this song again cuz it kinda describes my life right now.

  For the past 2.5 weeks, my best friend Emily and I have had a never-ending conversation on facebook about the loves of our lives. She likes a guy she met through the same website where we met, and I like 2 guys.

  The first one is a co-worker of mine, Christian. He's so sweet and nice and kind and polite and funny and cute and everything in between. We finally went out on a date a couple of weeks ago and it was nice. We had fun. And I think he likes me too. I showed Emmy a picture of him and she said he was very cute.

  The second is a guy I met through blogtv.com (a webcamming site), Bryan. I randomly was browsing through the live shows one night and I came across Bryan's page and decided to talk to him cuz I thought he was hot. And we gradually got to know each other over the next 2 nights and I started falling for him. He's so nice and funny and hot.

  Emily is my best friend/sister that I never had. She understands my confusion cuz she is going through the same thing.

  Yeah just thought I'd tell you guys that. yeah.

  Hasta.

  Baby you got the keys, so shut up and drive.

  I got 2 new CDs last week, cuz I got paid. One of them is the one I'm going to review, "Good Girl Gone Bad" by Rihanna.

  1. "Umbrella" featuring Jay-Z :: 3.5 stars :: a good start. It's kinda catchy, and I remember singing it one night with the girls in "A Funny Thing Happened On The Way to the Forum".

  2. "Push Up On Me":: 4 stars :: got a cool beat and it's interesting.

  3. "Don't Stop the Music" :: 5 stars :: one of my favorite tracks on the CD. It's easy to dance to (and Kristi Yamaguchi did the cha-cha to it on Dancing With the Stars) and it's a great song to play at a dance.

  4. "Breakin' Dishes" :: 3 stars :: one of the lesser tracks on the CD. Kinda weird.

  5. "Shut Up and Drive" :: 5 + stars :: the best track on the album, hands down. I'm making up a cha-cha to that song (and that's the song Shannon Elizabeth did her cha-cha to on Dancing With the Stars). It's sexy and flirty, just like the cha-cha.

  6. "Hate That I Love You" featuring Ne-Yo :: 4 stars :: it's pretty and sweet.

  7. "Say It" :: 3 stars :: kinda weird, but cool.

  8 "Sell Me Candy" :: 3.5 stars :: interesting lyrics. Kinda cool.

  9. "Lemme Hear That" :: 3.5 stars :: interesting, again, and sorta cool.

  10. "Rehab" :: 4 stars :: I don't know if this is a cover of the Amy Winehouse song, but I like it.

  11. "Question Existing" :: 3 stars :: weird. That's all I have to say.

  12. "Good Girl Gone Bad" :: 4 stars :: the title track, and it's pretty good.

  13. "Disturbia" :: 4.5 stars :: her current hit. I've always got the "bum-bum-be-dum-bum-bum-be-dum-bum" stuck in my head, cuz it's catchy. Even tho the message is dark, I still think it's good.

  14. "Take a Bow" :: 5 stars :: I didn't realize she sang this song until I heard it on the CD. I had heard it on the radio but didn't know who sang it. I really like the song. And now I know who sings it!

  15. "If I Never See Your Face Again" featuring Maroon 5 :: 5 stars :: Maroon 5 sang this without Rihanna on American Idol, and I liked the song a lot. I had the single before I had Rihanna's CD, and I listen to it sometimes. A great end to the album.

  With so many great tracks to listen to over and over, with a few exceptions, I'm gonna give this CD 4.75/5 stars altogether.

  Hasta.

  Every promise that you broke, I'm rattin' you out!

  I bought Kristy Lee Cook's debut album last week and listened to it on my old Discman since I can't put it on my iPod yet.

  I am copying my review from another website. The songs are rated from 1-5 stars. And it took me until now to copy the review cuz I wasn't able to blog on here last week.

  1. "15 Minutes of Shame" :: 5 stars :: a great start to the album. Reminded me a bit of Shania Twain. I plan on singing this for a talent show.
  2. "Why Wait" :: 4 stars :: The title track, and it's pretty good!
  3. "Like My Mother Does" :: 4.5 stars :: so pretty!
  4. "Hoping to Find" :: 5 stars :: another really pretty song. Mid-tempo, and awesome. Remided me of Martina McBride.
  5. "Baby Believe" :: 4 stars :: an inspirational song! I like it a lot.
  6. "Not Tonight" :: 4.5 stars :: a power ballad! I love those.
  7. "Plant the Seed" :: 3.5 stars :: pretty good, reminded me of my grandma's life.
  8. "I Think Too Much" :: 4 stars :: a great song. reminds me a bit, strangely enough, of Edward Cullen's tendency to overthink things.
  9. "Homesick" :: 4 stars :: pretty and sweet. Reminds me of times that I was at camp and missed home and my friends back home.
  10. "God Bless the USA" :: 4 stars :: the lone cover. She recorded it in a different key than when she sang it on AI, but that doesn't take away from how good she covers this song!

  When I bought the CD at FYE, it was the very last copy they had, so I guess the CD is selling well. I was only a sometimes fan of Kristy on AI, but her CD is very good.

  Hasta.
