Confessions From A Black Rose

First of all I want to say congratulations, WE SURVIVED THE APOCALYPSE! Unless we are all dead and we don't know it like on Lost . Anyways, I have spent a few weeks talking about 2012 now I think it is appropriate for me to talk about the future. Here are the things that I am most excited about for the year 2013. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler hosting the Golden Globes You cannot get more perfect than these two.  Jennifer Lawrence hosting Saturday Night Live with The Lumineers as the musical guests. on January 19 Beyonce performing the Half Time show during the Superbowl One thing I know for sure is Queen B knows how to run a great show. Her half time show will most likely go down in history.  Seth Macfarlane hosting the Academy Awards His sense of humor will be good shot of energy to the 85th Oscar Academy Awards. It will be a little reminiscent of the times Chris Rock and Jon Stewart hosted the show. I have sneaking suspicion that Seth will ruffle a few more feathers t

I'm not too sure how I found myself in this position, with only twenty days until a whole new year. It seems that 2012 flew past me. I just remember ringing in the New Year in Florida and now I'm getting ready for a family vacation in Las Vegas. Looking back at what 2012 had to offer  there were so incredible moments this year but along with triumph there was also tragedy. Here are some of the biggest moments in my opinion that defined the year 2012. London Summer Olympics If you have been a long visitor to this blog you are fully aware about my obsession with the London 2012 games. The London Summer Olympics was one of my favorite moments this year. We got to marvel at the wonder of the human body and all that it can do. We got to root for our favorite teams and beam with joy at their victories. It was just an incredible experience and Rio has a lot to live up to. Here are some links to my previous posts about the Olympics  Chariots of Fire: London 2012  and   Wonderwall:
