Gossip Girl Thoughts

Dear Me,

I never thought I would even attempt to watch it. It's too high-schooler for me. Even trashy, in fact.

I didn't like the idea of wasting time viewing this new teen tv series. Why would I? Young, rich girls belonging to the elite social circle in Manhattan's Upper East Side, wasting their beautiful lives over mundane to almost senseless things?


For one, I didn't like Serena (as played by Blake Lively). She didn't portray the supposed beauty that boys or even the society would drool about.

Second, Nate (Chace Crawford) is such a weak character for a guy linked to two (2) strong female characters.

Third, I abhor Chuck (Ed Westwick). He is a big, hateful pain in the butt.

Well, I had somehow watched it - a few episodes of it.

It was a boring late night and hubby (could you believe it?) was effortlessly watching it. I decided to hop in and watch, minus the popcorn and soda, of course.

I couldn't recall how many episodes we had continuously viewed that time. We called it a night (despite the fact that it was already early dawn) when our eyes called us to slumberland.

Anyway, I still found it too 'teenish' but I learned to like a few things.

I adore Blair's (Leighton Meester) choice of fashion. I love her wardrobe.

I like Kelly Rutherford (as Serena's mom) as much as I liked her in E-Ring.

Most of all, I am too curious to know who is Gossip Girl, the person behind the blog where social scoops spread out like fire.

Gossip Girl is now on its second season.

Have you watched this teen show? Do you like it? :)
