my first ever blog!

alright, so here we go.
basically, i created this blog for mostly personal use.  i keep records of every book i read and do sort of a mini review of it.  although i have been keeping these records in a small notebook for the last god-only-knows how many years, i figure i might as well keep it online as well.  

the title of my blog is "pop culture addict" which is 100% true.  i'm a culture fiend and i love it.  so this blog is going to be dedicated mainly to all things pop culture.  most often than not, you'll find book reviews, concert/cd reviews, or movie reviews.  basically what i think of what's being put out there by people daring enough to create.  i'll just critique it. lol  

also, i'm in the process of applying to have my own show on CJAM 91.5 FM, and in the event that i get it, i'd like this blog to be around so that i can post my playlists for each week's show, as well as information about upcoming concerts and cd releases or anything else of interest.

as for "housekeeping" type stuff...no, i hardly ever use capitals...i'm not sure why, i just am not fond of them.  so if that bugs you, probably stop reading this blog now or get used to it lol  

i was considering publishing all my book reviews that i have in my tiny notebook, but there are over 100 of them and i just saw that i started the book journal in 1999....so the first entry is "harriet the spy" because i would have been in like grade 6 or something?  i think what i'll just do is post the books that i read from now on on here...  so be prepared to read my review of "emma" by jane austen in a little while.  oh, by the way, i'm in a (very small) bookclub with my good friends cassie and theresa where we all take turns choosing which books we read.  so this will be kind of neat because i'll have read something that i probably wouldn't have before as we all have sort of differing tastes.  

anywhoooo...  hope you enjoy what's to come!

xo stella.

congrats... capitals are over-rated and it is refreshing to read as well as write without using them!
One of my fav literary genius didn't even use them in his name...e.e. cummings.
I would like at least a list of all the books you have read, early reviews are not manditory.
you go girl!
