Nick Jonas & the Administration

Nick Jonas has had a busy week.

First of all, I was shocked when I heard Nick had a solo project. I knew it was coming, yet I'm not ready for Jonas Brothers to be over. None the less, I think he has done a great job, I support him, and I'm happy for him.

"Who I Am" was released. 10 songs. I do feel that old school raw rock and roll vibe when I listen to it. In my history of rock and roll class, I learned that albums were supposed to capture the essence of live shows. They were made for those who couldn't make it out to the concert and for those who wanted to relive it. Nick's album does that. My favorite track is "Last Time Around."

On Tuesday, he decided to spend release day with the fans. He tweeted that he was headed to the Santa Monica Pier, Sherman Oaks, and Downtown Disney.

This, of course, KILLED ME. Tuesday is the one day of the week I'm NOT in town. It's okay, my time will come, I HOPE!

I couldn't make it out to any of the shows at the Wiltern last week. When he first announced his tour, I hadn't planned on going. Videos on youtube changed my mind, especially the covers of Jonas Brothers, Demi Lovato and Owl City songs.

I did think he would be on Jimmy Kimmel Live to promote the album. So, I requested tickets for the whole week he was in town for the tour and this week for the release.

Last night, he was on the show. Wednesday is the one night I COULDN'T go. I have a class, crucial to my major, that cannot be skipped.

There once was a time when I would be willing to skip class for a Jonas show.

There once was a time when my grades wouldn't suffer for it.

That time is over =/

Here's a list of things to make me feel better:

~I am a Jonas Brothers fan.

~If Nick's covers are what got me excited, then I ought to go see the original artists live.

~No M&G (okay, I might have won if I entered, but I want to meet all 3 brothers!)

~Nick didn't perform on Jimmy Kimmel.

~Target's edition of "Who I Am" comes with an exclusive DVD of performances.

80s Dance

Tonight's episode of One Tree Hill was so cute and cheesy, but so well done. Once I heard Simple Minds "Don't You Forget About Me," I was instantly transported to the teen movie world of John Hughes.

I loved the tribute. Sixteen Candles, Pretty in Pink, Weird Science, Ferris Buller's Day Off, and probably another.

This is my second favorite episode of the season so far. (First place goes to "I and Love and You" because of Clay + Sarah love story and "Belle of the Boulevard.")

8:00 Hey it's the guy from Hairspray.

The set says "The Fame Factory." My mom says, "V Factory?"

8:03 Yep. The rumors were true. She's doing a duet with Sir Elton John. He's got bling glasses and a huge earring.

8:04 Dang. They painted Lady Gaga's face really quick.

8:09 Russel Brand looks different

8:10 Jonas Brothers!!!!!!!! Joe's wearing glasses.

8:11 Cool! iPad really is a giant iPhone

8:13 wow. They hardly got any time to accept their award.

8:14 Fearless was more of a Pop album.

8:33 Was Alanis supposed to join Beyonce on stage? Beyonce just sang her song.

Maybe it's my TV, but I do recall poor audio mixing last year. I think I have the same problem this year.

9:05 Jonas Brothers presenting on stage! I miss the 3 of them together. Kevin looks married. Ha.

Lady Antebellum started playing while JB was still introducing them. What the?

9:09 I like the way Kaley Kuoco presented.

9:26 Kesha is what Sharpay Evans would look like when she gets older.

9:55 the superbowl commercial's 3d effects were not cool. This MJ tribute is awsome!

10:00 That was it for the tribute?? No dancing?

Oh wow! Michael's kids! Awwwwwwwwwwww.

Okay. I'm over watching it. I'm just going to check the winners online.

FEARLESS WON ALBUM OF THE YEAR?!!!!! WHATTTTTTTTTT?? I can't help but wonder if everything would have been different if Kanye hadn't interrupted Taylor at the VMAs.

Beyonce wins 6.

Jay-Z has 3? Go Jay!

Lady Gaga gets 2. I will check out her acceptance speech later.

Twilight LOST.

Back on:

10:48 Beyonce called Jay-Z her husband =]

Joe on Idol

Joe's presence as the 4th judge didn't seem to make a difference. They didn't show him making any interesting comments. In fact, they barely showed Joe talking at all. When he did speak, he said "Yeah," while the other judges said "Yes."

Big Time Rush

For the record, I love boy bands.

Nickelodeon created this new show and provided a new crush for me: Logan Henderson. Wait a second-- oh no, it's okay. He is my age. Phew, that was a close one. The two shorter members are older than the taller members.

I have a series recording for new episodes.

I would like to attend live concerts and meet and greets.

Fake bands are fun. There's a poster of 2+gether at the record label. Oh, Viacom.

When In Rome

They handed out fliers for a preview screening in Burbank last week. It said that it was the premiere. They totally lied. I know not what the point of lying was, but it was still cool because it was at the El Capitan.


There was some sort of concert at Hollywood and Highland by a group called X Japan. It turns out it wasn't just a concert; they were filming music videos.

Before the movie, we went to the Disney Soda Shoppe next door. We got the Black and White Sundae. They were out of cherries, but the marshmallow sauce was bomb!

The movie was super cute. Very feel-good comedy. Josh Duhmel is so cute! I did not realize Jon Heder was in the movie. He rocked. I totally reccommend it. Boyfriends won't hate it and you can watch it with the whole family.

Three hundred million dollars well spent. Well done. I liked it. Pandora is a very interesting planet and a remarkable concept.

You must watch it in 3D. If there had been wind in the theatre, I would have felt like I was really flying.

Sam Worthington resembled Brian Austin Green a bit =]
