Oh Baby I'll Give You My Hand--WHAT?!

Wow, holy lack of Glee--right? You're probably going through withdrawal. I'm a horrible updater, I know.

I'm sorry for that, but I've just been so bogged down with work (work? ew, I know) that I've been neglecting this. Don't worry, I am totally hanging my head in shame. But, here I am!! :-)

So You Think You Can Dance has been happening. And they're still in the audition process. I find this process annoying, and I can't wait for next week to happen when they finally pick their Top 20 and we can start the real show. They've had two weeks of Vegas already, and some of my favorites are gone!! Ryan, my favorite tapper, was axed early in Vegas. I was so sad!! But, Bianca, my second favorite tapper, is still there! Woo-Hoo!! But last night I almost hurled. This girl, Paula, fell on her ankle and there was a lump the size of a tennis ball on her leg. It was DISGUSTING! Ughhhhh. And they kept showing the fall!! I was sick, haha. My pre-med friends tell me I'm a wimp for being grossed out by that. Well, if that makes me a wimp--then so be it.

But next week we find out the Top 20! So, here's to the end of the horrid audition process! Cheers!!

Aaaaaand now...GLEE.

Let's just do a rundown of each character and what's been happening:

1. Finn--Is emotionally struggling. He loves Quinn, his pregnant girlfriend. But he has feelings for Rachel. At one point, he struggled with staying awake and balancing everything. He even took a "pep pill" so to speak and ended up tweaking out. Eeks!! He's been leaning on Mr. Shuester for help, and their relationship has grown into something I really enjoy watching.
   
   
2. Rachel--has been battling for the spotlight. She thinks Mr. Shuester is punishing her by making her sing back up on songs. She quit Glee to do the musical Cabaret. But Sandy, former Glee teacher and now Arts Administrator, pushed her too hard. She realized that she needed Glee just as much as Glee needed her. She had friends there, and came back in the knick of time (they were performing in an invitational and needed a female lead since Kristen Chenoweth bailed) She's been trying to win Finn's affection, lately giving a nerd a pair of her underware to stop him from blogging about Quinn's pregnancy.
   
   
3. Mr. Shuester--Got a little star crazy and brought in Chenoweth to perform in Glee (she technically never graduated high school, so he made her a senior so she could perform). He wants them to win so bad that he started losing sight of the kids in the group. Because of the pill popping incident, he has to work with Coach Sylvester on Glee. The two hate each other, and as of last night they blew up at one another causing all the kids to walk out. Sue then dropped Glee, and the group re-united happily. But Will feels like he doesn't have much control over things, especially at home.
   
   
   
4. Mrs. Terry Shuester--is still not pregnant. She is going to take Quinn's baby, but has not told Will anything. She became the school nurse because she thought Will was cheating on her with guidance counselor Emma. As the nurse, she's the one who gave the kids those pep pills. Her relationship with Will is now quite strained, and he came to his breaking point and scheduled her next Ob/GYN appointment, and insisted on being there. Terry's sister, Kendra, bribed the doctor to trick Will and go along with the whole "Terry's Pregnant" charade. I hate her.
   
   
5. Emma and Ken--ENGAGED?!?!? Hates that. Emma is the obsessivly clean Guidance Counselor, and Ken is the sweaty and gross football coach. Per Terry's pushing, Ken asked her to marry him, and she said yes! Not right away, because she went to Will and almost asked him to ask her to say no. It was a really intense moment! But, she did say yes, and I'm upset. They should not be together, neither should Terry and Will. Booooooo
6. Quinn--still pregnant, and not really struggling with telling Finn the baby's not his. At least, not that I can see. She was more concerned with Coach Sylvester finding out, because she knows she'll be off the Cheerleading Squad, and her parents will kill her. This last episode, Coach DID find out, and the episode ended with the club singing "Keep Holding On" and Quinn was performing and crying at the same time. It was really emotional, and even I was a little choked up. While Quinn drives me crazy sometimes, moments like that really make me like her.
   

The rest of the kids haven't really been prominent in the past few episodes, though next week promises to bring them a little closer to the forefront. Can we say SLUSHIE WAR? hahaha I can't wait!!!

Till Next Week!!
