I'm back! I finished finals yesterday so I'm free now! It's so good to be free. :) At least for a little while anyway.

This week is Josh's exam week but he only has two finals so he's much more laid back about it than I was. He took me out to dinner last night to celebrate my freedom. After dinner we watched "Dancing With The Stars."

I have a lot to say about the show this season. Monday night's episode had me so mad! The scores were so unfair. Christian was way over scored while Kristi and Mario were way under scored. Kristi did an 8 turn spin and Carrie Ann's reaction was, "I didn't care for it." WHAT?!?!? Kristi was the only star to really capture the feel of the Samba and Carrie Ann under scored her because she didn't care for it? I thought Mario was also fantastic. His Jive may have been a little messy, but I thought the Waltz was beautiful. I'm not a Karina fan (I think she's a poor loser) but the choreography was amazing and I thought Mario executed it well. I was really disappointed in the scores they were given and the subsequent dismissal from the show.

The Samba that Jason and Edyta did was a big disappointment for me. Josh and I danced to "It Had Better Be Tonight" for our Samba last year. Not to toot my own horn, but I thought ours was much better - and the Samba was Josh's most difficult dance. It sounded like they slowed down the tempo of the song and I felt like Jason and Edyta were doing the Samba in slow motion. I also thought that Cheryl and Christian were over scored. The Fox Trot was boring, and I couldn't tell what beat they were dancing on in the Mambo. I'm pretty sure they were dancing on one instead of two.

So that's my DWTS review for the week. I'm still hoping for a Kristi win. It's time a woman claims that mirror ball trophy again!

As soon as Natalie gets home from work we are heading down to the shore for the afternoon. It's such a nice day. We're going to lay out on the beach and relax!
