This happens to me quite frequently. There was the time that I became totally and completely obsessed with Bones, the TV show. I printed out a list of all of the episodes, and checked each one off after I had watched them. I watched two or three every day. Again, it was all I could talk about for months. I still love that show and am an avid fan. It's a great show. Check it out if you haven't yet. Although it can get a bit gory and gruesome most of the time, so don't check it out if you have a weak stomach.
Last year at about this time, I went through a BYU Divine Comedy rampage. I would watch their YouTube videos all the time and again, and that was all I did in my free time. Watch Divine Comedy.
This year while at BYU, I became captivated by BYU Vocal Point, which is an all male a Capella group that is based here on campus. They recently participated in the Sing Off last semester, which is basically a TV competition for a Capella groups. Vocal Point is outstanding. They sing and dance and use only their voices. Once again, they became all I talk about, and I'm fairly certain Emily was on the brink of insanity. They are my celebrities. Having celebrities that I could actually potentially meet is so much fun. One time, while I was standing in line at the BYU Creamery, I glanced beside me, and there was Ben Murphy from Vocal Point! Now Ben is my favorite because I think his voice is the most beautiful. So there he was, standing right next to me! So of course I strike up a conversation with him, and we ended up talking for awhile, which I just thought to be the coolest thing ever. That was such a wonderful day. And I only felt partially creepy for knowing who he was. A few months ago, I was working with Catering, and I found out that Vocal Point was performing on the floor above me, so while I was on break, I ran up and listened to them perform a few songs. Afterwards, they were loading up their van while we were loading up our truck, so I went over and started talking to Jake Hunsaker, and I chatted with him for a couple seconds before I had to back to work. It was wonderful. He shook my hand.
So I have a problem. Am I going to change it? Nope. Do I even want to change it? Not really. Am I creepy? Absolutely not. All I know is that one day, I will pick up a new obsession. I wonder what it will be?
I love how your current obsession gets the longest paragraph! I'm totally obsessive too :)
ReplyDeleteYour next obsession? Madden 10
ReplyDeleteAre you creepy? Absolutely.
ReplyDeleteWhat about How I Met Your Mother?
ReplyDeleteI was going to mention it. But I felt the list was long enough already. Trust me. These are not all of my obsessions. Just some of the major ones.
