Watch Puppy Bowl 2010

I just heard about the Puppy Bowl 2010 and oh, I love it already! This cute event is held the same weekend as the Super Bowl.

The Animal Planet’s Puppy Bowl is already on its sixth season. If you get bored watching sweaty males tackle each other on the field then I’m sure you won’t mind watching adorable puppies do it instead. This year’s Puppy Bowl will feature 43 cute and cuddly puppies. They will be released in an octagon field equipped with cameras all over so that we will catch all the cute action they’re going to do inside. They will try to win our heart’s out by playing with footbal

ls – the cuter way, of course.

Puppy Bowl VI is a two-hour event which will kick off at 3 pm on Animal Planet. The most awaited part is the halftime which will feature – what else – but furry kittens.

Be sure to watch Puppy Bowl 2010. Here’s a video clip from last year.

Rumor has it that he has agreed to a football scholarship to USC – hold your breath – for the class of 2015! Wow, that’s like still five years away. I don’t know what I’ll be doing at that time but David Sills sure is lucky to have plans that ahead in time. For someone as young as 13, that’s even more remarkable.

11 Year Old Gives Birth – Victim of Child Abuse?

11 Year Old Gives Birth! This news shocked me. How can this happen to such a young girl? Little is known about her because she is protected by law to not have her name or her family’s name release. Some say she is from Texas while previous news says she’s from Missouri. The young mother released this statement, “My daughter and baby are fine, and the baby is absolutely beautiful.”
If you think that news is disturbing though then brace yourself for more disturbing news. Fox News reported that the 11 year old’s child’s father is none other than the stepdad. He allegedly started raping her at the age of six and as frequently as two or three times a week! The baby now is in the custody of Child Protection Services. The mother of the 11 year old denied having any knowledge of the situation and the young mother is said to be now living with relatives.
Watch the 11 year old gives birth news report.

Taylor Swift Grammy Controversy

ve you heard about the Taylor Swift Grammy Controversy? She has recently won an impressive four Grammy Awards and the youngest person ever to won the much coveted Album of the Year award but her performance at the Grammy made people think twice if she deserves her four awards.
Taylor Swift performed three songs during the Grammy’s but they said her second song was off-key. I watched it and it’s not really the best performance I’ve seen.  Here’s the video.

I think they’re right. It’s not good but I still think she deserves her award. I’m not a music person, I don’t listen to radio anymore, and I don’t watch TV that much but one way or another this song has gotten through me and I had no clue it was her’s. I just love her song, “You Belong With Me, and it has gotten through me one way or another.

My Pizza Hut Order Online Experience

Yesterday, we tried to order Pizza Hut online. The process went smoothly. I ordered 2 large Viva pizza in Hawaiian flavor. After submitting my order I noted the time. It was 4:38 PM.

I thought to order Pizza Hut online was only going to last 45 minutes but I was wrong. I waited for an hour until I couldn’t wait any longer. I knew the order didn’t push through because Pizza Hut was supposed to call me for the confirmation of my order. I received no such call. Finally, at about 5:30 I fell asleep.

I woke up a few minutes before 8 PM. I heard my husband talking to Pizza Hut Delivery on his cellphone. They were confirming our order at last. They said they had technical difficulties on their end that’s why it took 3 1/2 hours for them to call back. They confirmed the order and told us how much it would cost us and then asked how much we are going to pay. We said they should bring this amount of change because we have no exact amount for the payment.

The order arrived at about 45 minutes. I thought everything was going smoothly but to my dismay they don’t have any change. The delivery boy said it was noted on the paper that we have the exact amount of money for the payment.

Because of my experience I give Pizza Hut Order Online a rating of 1 out of 5. Don’t ever, ever order when you’re famished as you’ll never know when they will encounter another technical difficulty.

The Blind Side Review

I didn’t know what to expect when I watched The Blind Side. I was burning with fever but I was dying with boredom. If I knew it was so touching and I would cry I wouldn’t have watched this when I was sick. Nevertheless, it’s a five out of five for me and I recommend you to watch it.
The Blind Side is about the story of Michael Oher, a black homeless teenager who was recruited to play football for a Christian high school. Nobody knew he was homeless and that he had no clothes until Leann Touhly, Sandra Bullock, spotted him on the streets one cold night and found out he was homeless.
Leanne invited Michael home and let him sleep on the couch for the night. One small act of kindness led to another and another until Michael became part of the affluent but down to earth Touhly family and became a successful professional football player in his own right.
The Blind Side was based on a true story and it’s really a heartwarming one. The kindness that the Touhly family showed to one homeless teenager who had a bleak future made me cry not once but a lot of times. Michael Oher, in turn, reciprocated their love and became successful because of their guidance.
