Gossip Girl 302 Recap

Finally, I have a sweet little spot of time that I can fully dedicate to the AMAZINGNESS that was Gossip Girl 302. I mean, come on. The episode defined awesomeness, and while maybe I'm over-hyperventilating and maybe the episode wasn't oscar material, but the episode was definitely fun and colorfully layered. And layered WELL. There was a good mix of things we actually care about (except for the intensely boring Nate-Secret-Love nonsensorama) and things that make us go *OMG* like the whole Blair-Georgina warfare. Freshman-First-Day episodes have always captivated us in full gushomatic manner, remember the college-freshman episode on Buffy so long ago? This episode made me think back to that level of MEGA GREATNESS (which btw still remains untouched k sorry GG but that one was THE classic by which all classicness shall henceforth be measured, I mean come on, it was BUFFY) and how insanely cool is it that there's a little bit of the Buffster in Gossip Girl in the form of the ragingly maniacal and instantly lovable G SPARKS.

I don't think anything below can qualify as a spoiler for anyone reading. If you still haven't watched GG 302, you're probably not my demographic anyway (its good we found out now, our love would never have worked out anyway byebye, okok I'm kidding, you can stay and look at cute screenshots) so lets get on with things shall we.

So Blair is all excited about ruling the NYU crowd blah blah meow meow.

I've totally abandoned and jumped ship from Team B because this girl's emotional development is pretty seriously... shall we say, stunted like nothing I've ever seen. B seems to constantly switch stations between being awesome and demented and then mostly just plain spoilt and terminally immature. ITS KINDA SAD, although I admit, she still delivers the best punchlines of the entire show.

And Serena simply continues to be awesome ttm.

*DEEP DEEP HEARTS* Serena's struggling with the idea of going away to a faraway land for college, which is deeply understandable and I think that Serena's issue with being terminally unmotivated resonates deeply with my own experience of being incurably *omg*sianz.

AND who ELSE thinks that Cady is like the most annoying thing everrr???

I literally feel like weaving through her hair with a hockey stick and twirling her long locks round and round the hockey stick and then pouring superglue on everything and just YANKING the hockey stick off from her scalp and then stepping back as I enjoy her glorious screams of pain. And I don't even play hockey. When I begin to conjure up creative uses for sports equipment that I would otherwise never even think about, its a true measure of how someone has annoyed me. Which is strange because Cady has done NOTHING annoying, she just oozes annoyability which even I can't explain despite my wild raging fantasies of pain-inducement.

Okay, I'll stop here before I give away the whole episode (actually I'm just tired now sorry) and maybe I'll carry on later. TGIF!!!
