I just recently bought Desperate Housewives: The Complete First Season. To be honest, when DH came out sometime last year I wasn't really a big fan. Everybody was talking about it, especially on how they could relate to the characters. Even Laura Bush cited the show in one of her interviews or speech (I'm quite unsure but she did mention it. jokingly). I thought that I would just get bored watching since I'm not married and quite a far cry from getting into one.
To my surprise, watching disc one alone changed my entire perspective about the show. The cast is impeccable and the elements of the show (such as storyline, the setting, music etc.) were like pieces of a puzzle, just a perfect fit. When you just thought that it can't get any better, it just does episode per episode. When things just happen impossible? maybe, but definitely plausible. Watching their desperations and dark secrets unfold, twisted as it may sound, is very entertaining. The four main stars of the show are Teri Hatcher (Susan Mayer), Marcia Cross (Bree Van De Kamp), Felicity Huffman (Lynette Scarvo) and Eva Longoria (Gabrielle Solis). My favorite among the wives, torn between Bree and Lynette. Just can't wait for the 2nd season.
My unexpected purchase of this series is a result of birthday, christmas money + record store = uncontrollable shopping spree. I've purchased tons of DVD's and CD's that I've deprived myself for sometime, it really feels good to buy things you like. I'd be posting a couple of reviews of the items that I bought as soon as I watch or listen to them.
I have a typical first name and that is Kristina. It could be spelled-out in different ways (Cristina, Christina, Xtina and what have you) but nevertheless it still sounds the same. For the last 2 decades of my existence, my name has evolved from Maria, tin-tin, Kristina, Kristeta, tina, tins and in an effort to be unique I finally chose a hyphenated name now I am t-na.

Confessions
I always said the right things, throwing smiles left and right, ignoring "unpleasant" scenarios pretend that it didn't happen. I found it difficult to say NO, even though I really don't want to do it. To top it off, I always believed that "If I could just be nice to other people, maybe they will also be nice to me in return". Now, realizing that all of that crap I thought of is just full of shit since a lot of people took advantage of my disposition. Some of them even recognized that I was gullible and naive but instead of correcting me, they completely did the opposite. I've treasured momments of reflection and meditation, the healing of wounds. One day I'll face and conquer my demons...
