TV Land Favorites

My previous posts have been very serious so I decided to do something fun. What better way than to point out a few of my favorite things/people on TV.  So let me save you the boring introduction and get right to it.

Favorite TV Parents: Cliff and Claire Huxtable (The Cosby Show)

I have seen many parents on TV land and none of them has chemistry like Cliff and Claire. At a time, I actually thought they were actually married in reality. The way they flow with themselves and with the children; it is phenomenal.  I really hope they create a Cosby reunion movie of some sort just to see them together again


Favorite Family Unit: The Huxtables (The Cosby Show)

I love this family because of the love they share for themselves. Again, I have seen many families on TV and some of them don’t even act like they are a family. The Huxtables have this chemistry and genuine love amongst themselves that makes you want to be a part of the family. Love them.



Favorite Little Brother: Luke Dunphy (Modern Family)

 Luke is adorable. From the things he says to the way he acts; he has this charm that I have not seen on television before. I just hope that when he grows older, he does not become another Cory Baxter (We love you Cory but as soon as you grew older, you lost us somewhere).



Favorite Little Sister; Olivia Kendall (The Cosby Show)

The “I’m a Woman” singer is by far the best little sister on TV. Smart, intelligent and very funny, Olivia remains the best addition to the Cosby Show. Whenever I watch reruns of the show, I always look forward to the Olivia moments especially the ones with Mr Cosby.



Favorite Older Brother: Theo Huxtable (The Cosby Show)

Theo was the only boy in the Huxtable household and I can say he is one of the most responsible brothers on television.  He is not rebellious and actually listens to his father when he gives instruction; Theo is the perfect model older brother for anyone.



Favorite Older Sister: Ellie Bartwoski (Chuck)

Ellie is the older sister of Chuck and she practically raised him when their father left. The thing I love about Ellie is how smart, coordinated and caring she is; whilst having the best interest of her brother. Oh, and she is very pretty too



Favorite Best Friends: Georgia and Jo (State of Georgia)

Georgia and Jo are not your average best friends. They are genuine proof that opposites do attract. Even though it is portrayed in the show that Georgia is the bossy one whilst Jo is the one who will do whatever her best friend says; we can see that through all the years they have been friends, Georgia always has Jo’s back no matter what and considers their friendship valuable.



Favorite Couple: Nathan and Haley Scott (One Tree Hill)

In this category, I am tempted to put Lucas and Peyton or Chuck and Sarah or even Haley from Modern Family and her weird boyfriend but in the end; its Nathan and Haley. For the simple fact that Haley makes Nathan a better person is enough reason and the consistent love they have through the years. Love it.



Favorite Federal Agent: Jack Bauer (24)

I do not even think I need to say much. Mr Bauer gets the work done in 24hrs and he does it well. Love him



Favorite Superhero: Wolverine (X-Men Evolution)

Wolverine is the bomb! Let me point here that I have a soft spot for all things Marvel but even in the Marvel universe, Wolverine rocks! His personality is golden. His fighting skills are to die for, literally)



Favorite Villain: The Joker (Batman)

I think we all can agree that he is the villain of all villains. No point saying much.



Favorite Sidekick: Chloe (SmallVille)

I love her!!!!!!!!! She is the kind of sidekick that is not just brains. She has the brains and when it is time to fight she does a good job at it too.



Favorite Hospital: Seattle Grace (Grey’s Anatomy)

If I am ill, please take me to this hospital because I know I am with a set of doctors who will go all the way for me. And I think I would love to witness all the drama that goes on there.



Favorite Doctor: Dr. Bailey

This short black woman is one doctor you can trust your life with. Firm and strict, she is not a fan of too much drama. All she wants to do her job and her job is saving your life.



Favorite Cops: Hawaii 5-0 (2010 version)

These guys (and beautiful lady) are the best cops on TV land. The way they handle their business and catch all the bad guys, it’s too commendable. And they also know how to have a good time.



So these are my TV Land favorites. I am curious to read about yours. You could drop them as a comment or create a post on them and invite me to read.



Have an awesome weekend

Tired of Invisible

I feel invisible.

Before I go on, I want to say that I am not depressed neither am I slipping into depression. I just want to talk. So I am going to say a few things. It may make sense. It may sound like gibberish but it is what it is.

Have you ever felt like life is happening and you are not doing what you are supposed to be doing? Ever felt like you have done it all; read the right books, put up affirmations on your bathroom mirror and prayed all the prayers necessary and still things don't change. Are you at that point were you just want to live your dreams but its like someone is doing that for you already? Its like you are doing all the "right" things but it seems they are not enough.

That's how I feel.

Its like I have this dream and I believe in it so bad. So I decide to live this dream. I do all that needs to be done and still there is no difference. Its like I am running this race and there is a huge wall in front of me that I can't seem to break or jump over so what I want to do is just sit with my back against the wall and wait; because I am tired. So here I am in the city of dreams, while everyone is getting theirs I am walking around, invisible.

A few months ago, I was online downloading random videos and I came across a song. It is by Lemonade Mouth. (Lemonade Mouth is a book that was turned into a Disney Channel Original Movie about a band called Lemonade Mouth). When I saw the video, I didn't know anything about the book band or movie and as at now I have not seen d movie or read the book. But the song I heard, was awesome. It was like the writer of the song knew exactly how I was feeling. How its like I am here, trying to be all I want to be but somehow I am still invisible, left with the feeling of an under achiever. The awesome thing about the song is how it expresses another part of me. A part that is saying even though its like I am invisible and insignificant, if I push harder and try again, my dreams will actually be my reality.

If you are out there feeling insignificant and invisible, I want to encourage you. The worst thing you can do to yourself is having the mindset that you cannot make a difference and that your dreams are "wishful thinking". The truth is simple "A dream is a wish your heart makes" and trust me "Dreams come true"

I still have low times. Times when I feel like the world is choking me and I want to let go. Just today, I thought about quitting Yada Magazine to chase other dreams. I am encouraged knowing that maybe if I can hold on a little longer and try a bit harder I can be all that I want to be more. Truth is we were meant to be Somebody... somehow it is going to happen... somewhere it will happen... Someday it will happen. All we have to do is wait.

He has promised. It will happen.

Here are the lyrics to the Lemonade Mouth song. Hope it blesses you as it blessed me.

Lemonade Mouth- Somebody

Can you see me
Cause I'm right here
Can you listen?
Cause I've been trying to make you notice
What it would mean to me
to feel like somebody
We've been on our way to nowhere
Tried so hard to get there

And I say Oh!
We're gonna let it show
We're gonna just let go of everything
Holding back our dreams
And try,
to make it come alive
Come on let it shine so they can see
We were meant to be,
Somebody (somebody), somebody yeah
Somehow, Someday, Someway
Someday!

I'm so tired
of being invisible
but I feel it, yeah!
Like a fire below the surface
trying to set me free
But inside of me
Cause we're standing on the edge now
it's a long way down

And I say Oh!
We're gonna let it show }
We're gonna just let go of everything
Holding back our dreams
And try,
to make it come alive
Come on let it shine so they can see
We were meant to be,
Somebody (somebody), somebody yeah
Somehow, Someday, Someway
Someday!

We will walk out of this darkness
feel the spot light glowing like a yellow sun,
oooohhhhh
and then we fall, we fall together
till we get back up and we will rise as one
oooohhhhh

Oh! we're gonna let it show
we're gonna just let go of everything
holding back our dreams
and try
to make it come alive
come on let it shine so they can see
we were meant to be somebody
somebody somebody Yeah somehow someday someway
somebody somebody..
Ooo oh

That's what you will do when you love someone

Sometimes you may wonder and ask, why do I bother? How can I feel something this deep for someone? It even hurts when the person you care so much for doesn't feel the same way for you.



I am not here to get all mushy and all but I want to ask a question... Do we love hoping that the person we are crazy about loves us back or do we love expecting nothing?



Folks, love is a lot of things but I know it is not solely based on butterflies, emotions or fickle feelings. Love is a decision. It is saying that no matter what happens I will be there for this person. Through thick and thin, I'll stand by this person. I will pray with this person when I have too. I don't care if the feelings are not mutual. Thankfully, love is not based on feelings. I will find out how the person is doing. I will be there to tell the person the truth even though the person doesn't want to hear it.



Its time we put aside our mushy feelings and decide to love. Truth is, loving someone could mean letting the person go despite how you "feel" for the person. It means standing aside and praying that maybe one day the person will love you back and that if they don't.... Well, life goes on.



God is teaching me so much about love and one major thing He has taught me is that love is sacrificial. Just as Christ laid down His life for us is the way we should lay down our desires for the ones we love when necessary.



It is hard. It is difficult. Your mouth may say Love is so last year but that's not what your heart is saying. Just keep at it. Do the things you wouldn't do. Go the extra mile. Lay down your desires for the other party. Think of the other person's needs before you think of yours. Be truthful with the person at all times. These are the things you will do when you love someone.
