They Finally Got The Fire Started: Avatar Season 3!

The first episode of Avatar: the last Airbender Book 3: Fire, "The Awakening", finally aired last night.

So I got together with my fellow avatarded friend (she's one of those "secret obsession" type people) and watched it. We were soooooo excited, and after the over 9 months of waiting, we had every right to be.

And I have got to say, it was worth the wait. Not that I would want to wait, or that it would be okay for Nickelodeon to do something so hideous ever again. But the Season is looking supremely awesome.

This is going to be spoiler-y now. So if you haven't watched it yet, what the heck are you doing? Go watch it now! They have it on Turbo Nick for goodness sakes, you don't even have to wait till they air it!

And well of course there's my little nit-picky problems with it. I still haven't adjusted to Zuko not leaving the dark side last season, and MAIKO?!? My poor hardcore Zutara heart just had to cry, "WTF is going on here?"

But even with all that you just know the season is going to be amazing, and you can tell they're pulling out all the stops. Come on, I mean they show us Ozai's face, Aang has hair, and they're bringing back like all of our favorite characters. We saw Yue, the Duke, the Serpent from the Serpent's Pass...

And this is JUST the first episode!

Good Time Music

I love music. Lets be honest, I'm a choir geek with a karioke machine. And when no one's home I dance around and sing at the top of my lungs, actually I do that even when people are home.

So of course I love internet music sites, which give me a chance to try out some songs before buying the cd. (No, I have not yet upgraded to an mp3 player).

Now I know a lot of people are into Project Playlist lately, but I'm totally loyal to Imeem.

'Cause even with the recent copyright nazism that has emerged lately, Imeem still pwns. Plus, it adds some kind of challenge to find good songs that haven't been cut down to a 30 second preveiw.

And I have this ever-changing playlist that is like my brain child. Here taste a hear!

MDA Telethon: 'till we fall asleep, there's a telethon

So I heard that the muppets were going to host a block of Jerry Lewis' MDA (Muscular Dystrophy Association) Telethon this year (though I didn't know what time they would be appearing), and I said "Hey! Telethons sound cool!"

So I decided to watch the whole 21 hour thing, or at least attempt to do such a thing.

Now let me tell you something: Jerry Lewis is old. Really old. So old, that I'm not sure he's competent enough to be on television anymore. He kept forgetting what he was doing and saying things that didn't really make sense. But it's okay, because Jerry cares, and he's the one who started it all.

I have been converted to an MDA supporter, and after all those hour of watching stories of little children who are losing their lives to Muscular Dystrophy, how could I not be?

Also, I'm in love with the MDA Youth Chairman Billy Gilman now, so supporting cause might help. He is a country singer though, but for Billy Gilman, I can bear it. I've never even heard of him before, I'm not much into the country circuit. But Oh! If you would have heard that boy sing on that telethon, you would have fallen in love with him too. And he's so charming! Oh how I love Billy Gilman.

He wasn't the only great act on either; some of my favorites were the guy who one America's got Talent, The people from Grease on Broadway, and the World's Fastest Balloon Animal Maker.

Now the thing is, I stayed up pretty late trying to watch that telethon, but the two hours the muppets were on, I happened to be asleep.

But, you know, it was worth it anyway...
