11 Things I Loved About ‘11
11 Things I Loved About ‘11
New TV Show: American Horror Story
This show encompasses everything a TV should be: exciting moments and drama that always keeps you wanting to watch more..horror both at the visual and psychological level, with a little Dylan McDermott on the side..definitely not recommended for kids under 16.
World Event: Uprisings in Tunisia/Egypt
These uprisings, with the help of social media to get the word out there, allowed millions of people to live in (relatively) free world for the first time in decades.
Best Song: Paradise - Coldplay
Coldplay rarely deceives, and this was no exception…
Viral Video: Jack Sparrow - The Lonely Island ft. Michael Bolton
Instant classic.
Trip: Summer in Italy
I taught EFL in Northern Italy working for ACLE for two months, met a whole lot of awesome Italian children, adults, and fellow tutors, and lived the Italian culture while staying with amazing host families. Then, I spent 10 days traveling around to see Florence, Rome and Paris. By far the best trip of my life!
Film: Midnight In Paris
Woody Allen’s best film since the 70s! I loved seeing Paris durant “les Années Folles”! Plus, it helped that I was actually in Paris when I saw this, at the movie theater des Champs-Élysées! When I headed out the movie theater, I walked towards the Eiffel Tower and had a similar view of it as Owen Wilson in the picture above…and then when I took the metro back to Montmartre, where I was staying, it felt special to walk in those streets at night, and imagine what it was like in the 1920s, depicted in the film..aaah, Paris…
Breakthrough Actor/Actress: Andrew Garfield
As stupid as it is to remake Spiderman 11 years after the first Spiderman movie, I’m looking forward to it…thanks to this guy.
Cover Song: Dearest - Buddy Holly (covered by The Black Keys)

Québecois Song: Paris-Montréal - Les Cowboys Fringants
