Review: New Moon
I finally watched New Moon yesterday, I waited until it came out on DVD to watch. We started by re-watching Twilight, and let me say I was laughing my ass through most of it and its ridiculous acting…

Alright…..
So… In most of this I have put the positive stuff of what was going on at the IYG.
Out of respect to the Four Host I will keep this short.
I felt like we were treated like children. I am far from a child, and was surprised when everyone around me treated me like one. I understand that there are 300 people that they had to watch, but it felt insulting.

The Performance
So we were standing like we always do in our dressing room in our VOM lines to go out, we have our earpieces in hearing the countdown and heard the snowboarder come down the fake hill throught the Olympic rings. This is when someone comes in and starts calling our VOMS. Outside of our dressing rooms is the Athletes lined up country by country waiting for their moment. They call...
