Sooo. I must admit that I didn't actually watch the premiere on the day it was aired. (Don't shoot me!) BUTTT. I did go on good old Hulu and watched it when I found out I missed it. What am I talking about? Switched At Birth of course. (:
Yes. The show that became extremely popular after only one season. Hell, after a couple shows of the season! (If you haven't watched this, I STRONGLY recommend this). Now. The first episode of the show was last Tuesday. The second will be tonight!!! 8 o'clock EST. (I don't know what that would mean for anyone else. lol)
Now. The normal happened in the opening show. It continued from the last season. Bay is with Emmett, Daphne is jealous. Etc Etc.. As far as the romance goes in the show, it's basically the same as any other ABC family show. However, the part of the show that I love the most. Isn't the fact that Bay isn't her parents real daughter and Daphne isn't her mothers real daughter. Not the fact that they were switched at birth like the title gives away. But the fact that Daphne and Emmett are deaf.
For most people, being deaf is something that's different. Confusing. Hard to comprehend, even. For me... it's a part of my daily life. Something most people don't know about me is that my grandparents are deaf. Actually... 4 grandparents since my real grandparents divorced and remarried. Two live across the country and I don't talk to them much. But the other two live in town. I'm extremely close to my grandma. I can relate to Bay on a certain level because I'm not the best with sign language. I know the basics and I can have a conversation with my grandma in sign language but it's difficult. It really is a whole other language.
It doesn't even stop there with my family and deafness. My dad works in a school system close to my town. (A neighboring town) He interprets for a 5th grade deaf boy. I think it's an amazing job. And I'm proud of him for that.
The deaf community is a big part of my life, and I thought I'd share that along with how awesome that show it. (: About an hour till it's on! XD

P.S. I'm sorry... I'm an epic failure... lol. There have been two shows so far. Well... three total now. And I'm a failure and have only watched one since I refused to watch last nights without watching the second one... BUT. I am going to watch both On Demand tonight when I get home. (:
Sorry guys... lol

Introductions are always supermegafoxyawesomehawt!!!!
Why hello there. (:
So. As this is the first post I'll be making, or anyone will be making, I'll kind of explain things here...
This will be a collaborative blog. There are four people doing this. They will all introduce themselves within the next week. (We are teenagers, so give us some slack with time? ;) We tend to be swamped with homework and stuff)
All of us have met on fanfiction.net and have become quite good friends. This also means we're from different parts of the world (Well, I suppose technically that's only me, compared to them that is.)
We all have different topics. (As seen on our banner) and in our intro post each person will be saying what they have. We won't be limited to just that topic. But it will be the main thing we post about. So now. On to myself. (:
My name is Destiny. (: But most stick to Dest or even Desty on fanfiction. I'm 16 years old, Junior in High school, and live in the United States. Michigan to be exact. (: I come from a small town with a population that would probably shock most people. I live on the lake. Which is awesome for the summer time but suckish for the winter. I play softball all year round and my goal is to get a scholarship for it. I'm a pitcher and love to just get lost in the game. I pitch for my high school team, as well as a travel team that I'm on in the summer. When I'm not in a season, which means winter, I'm in the gym training for next season and learning new pitches.
I'm an idealist. I love to bury my head in a book and imagine it's real. Imagine that some day it'll happen to me. I hate turning back to reality and know that it'll never happen. I write to let out my frustrations at the world and because I just absolutely love it. I want to go into a career of some sort with writing involved. A lot if it. If not, I know there is always fanfiction. (: Some of my favorite books are Harry Potter, (C'mon, who doesn't like those?!) House of Night, Dresden Files, The immortals, Twilight is alright (Just the books not the stupid movies) and just random other ones. (:
I love to sing and just be plain crazy. I'm wild and kind of unpredictable. I like to have fun in life, but that doesn't mean I drink or do anything of that sort. I actually don't. (: Which I'm proud of.
I tend to hold emotions in sometimes, and act fake. It's a defense I've created after all the times I've been hurt. I actually like it better. (:
The topic I have is Television. (: So. Look for my posts if you want to learn more about that! I'll cover all the new shows, do reviews on shows that have changed. Or new seasons starting. (I do believe Switched at Birth is coming out with their second season in January!! XD) Just, whatever is going on in the TV world. Also means Music Awards, Grammy's. Etc. (: I'm your gal. (:
If you have a certain TV show you want me to talk about, just comment or send a message (Can you do that on blogger?) or something and tell me! I'll make sure to cover it!
Soooo. Yeah. I'm really nice, and I swear I don't bite too hard. (;
