"Tune in, groove on, bust out!"

Long time, no blogging. College will do that to ya... so will being sick. Ugh.
I've been lagging on my other blog too, but Blogspot hates me again, apparently. Whenever I go to blog about something in the music world, I always get an error message. I haven't tried in about a week, so I just might try again...

Anyway, I hate being sick. I've had an allergy-related sickness for just over a week now. I was over it on Wednesday, but died again on Thursday. Fun stuff. Spring Break started today, but mine actually started on Thursday around 4-ish! Who wants to be sick during Spring Break?! I sure as hell don't. Especially when you have a take-home math test and a bazillion pages to read for World Lit. Again, fun stuff.

SongPop has kept me company. I am totally addicted. I've been playing it for months and I'm still absolutely addicted. I've also found a way to challenge more than 20 users (I refuse to become a VIP member, still going the free route). Ha! Browse through your opponents list and challenge their opponents... I think I'm challenging around 35 people, now? Take that, SongPop! Username: LizzyLepp (anyone surprised?) if anyone wants to challenge me :)

The midterm I mentioned in my last post? Yeah, I pretty much failed that. That was the worst midterm I have ever seen. To top it off, we had a sub that day... so any questions we might've had, couldn't get answered. Lovely. Oh well... you win some, you lose some.

But yeah, the whole being sick thing has had me down. It's also been costing me sleep... but when do I ever get any sleep? I've been getting less sleep now. SongPop, Solitaire, and my iPod are seriously my best friends right now. However, today, I've experienced a turnaround. For the first time in a week, I found myself overcome with giddiness. Why? Well...

DAMON PAMPOLINA AND I ARE FACEBOOK FRIENDS. It's funny how the world works. As a child of the late 80s-mid 90s, these people are your celebrity crushes or "pretend boyfriends" (haha!)... and in the year 2010's, you're able to call them your Facebook friends. Yeah, yeah, "Facebook friends"... but he actually talks to people and "likes" peoples' posts/links/photos, etc. Chasen Hampton does the same thing... as does Albert (who goes by Jeune Pierre). The Skid Row guys are cool as hell too, when it comes to interacting with fans on social media sites. Same with Hanson. Kudos.

95% of you are probably thinking (or saying to yourself), who is Damon Pampolina? Who is Chasen Hampton? Albert? Only three of my all-time favorite mouseketeers from the late 80s-early 90s version of the Mickey Mouse Club! "The All-New Mickey Mouse Club"... later shortened to just "MMC" for the cool factor. They were also 3/5 of the pop band, "The Party" (5 of the oldest members from the 1st season of the Mickey Mouse Club were chosen to be in a pop band). I'll blog about The Party over at my music blog, at some point... I've been wanting to, but Blogspot won't let me.

 (Damon's on the far left, Chasen is next to him, Tiffini's in the middle, Deedee is next and Albert's on the far right)

But yeah, this is HUGE. The Party rocked my little world... and I still love them to this day. Chasen and Damon were my favorites. Chasen was my fashion idol... and he's a fellow ginger. GINGER POWER!!

From age 3 to about 6 (?) Jordan Knight (NKOTB), Chasen, and Damon were my main men. Mhm. My Mother let me help name my little brother (born in 1992, I was almost 6)... and I totally wanted to name him either Jordan, Damon, or Chase. She wouldn't let me give him the first name, so I got to choose the middle name. She shot down both Chase and Damon... but damn did I try!! Ha! I've had Chasen as a Facebook friend for about 4 years now? I was all giddy when he accepted my request as well... he's even left "happy birthday" posts on my wall; the same year Rick Allen from Def Leppard gave me a "happy birthday" tweet. I almost pissed my pants. Albert "Jeune Pierre" sent me a friend request last year... yeah, sent me a request. 

Now I have Damon on my list... Damon Pampolina's the bee's knees. Hahaha! Hey, The Party played an important role in my childhood. They are still important... I still jam to them all the time. And they've reunited (without Tiffini Hale *sad face*)... I am one giddy girl! I never got to see them in concert, I almost did, but the show was sold-out in minutes *massive sad face*. Maybe I'll get the chance now... and if not, I will still get NEW music from The Party. Yeeeee!!!!

*Fan girl mode has now been turned off* The San Jose Sharks have just been pitiful as of late. I mean, seriously. However, they kicked some ass tonight. (They got screwed out of a goal, but they still got the 2 points!) It's about friggin' time!!! 5-3 over Anaheim!! Yeeee!!! However (pt 2), they traded Douglas Murray earlier this afternoon. I know. They NEED to trade Clowe and Boyle... I'm sorry, but they're 'deadweight' as well. Clowe is nothing but a goon... and Boyle is only good when he wants to be... and apparently, he hardly ever wants to be good.

This is probably the most random blog post ever... but my head is only semi-right at the moment. haha! Hopefully it will be fully right soon! Send over some good vibes, please... I need to be healed.

SongPop awaits.
