Comparing Hil's Week with mine!

Nothing amazing happened to either of us on Monday!

Tuesday:

HIL: Her cd was released and she was in Los Angeles for a signing for it. Later, she would catch a flight to New York and arrive around midnight.

ME: I purchased 3 (yes 3) copies of her newest cd!! Two of them I purchased at Target with the bonus track of "The Girl Can Rock". The third one I purchased was the signature special editon at the Disney Store. She only has 499,997 copies for her gold record. I did my part--someone else will have to help out. I also purchased the Lizzie Movie Soundtrack cd there as well just to have a copy of each of her signature disks.

Wednesday:

HIL: She was guest today on TRL and she was as cute as ever. Her song got all the way up to #2..she hasn't made it to #1 yet. She looked better than the other 2 guests of Kelly Clarkson and Jessica Simpson. Quite a lineup. Later at 4pm, she was going to do more signing at the local Virgin record store.

ME: I went to work like I always do...

Thursday:

HIL: She went to the Video Music Awards to see her favorite performer Britney get kissed by Madonna. She was also a presenter, but she seemed that she wanted to cry more than anything. She never looked comfortable there. But then again, who would be if you had to virtual unknowns to be your co-presenters. According to ET. she wore black, Capri pants, a sleeveless shirt, purple lace-up pumps and adorned the outfit with an YVES ST. LAURENT, rhinestone-studded, cuff bracelet. Anyhow, she looked fabulous!! Interestingly she was on the red carpet 45 minutes into the Opening Act show and was a presenter 1hr and 45 min into the main show!! Ironic isn't it! (I kept track of when she was on screen - I admit I have no life!!)

ME: I went to my regular job and then watched the VMAs when I got home..and to say that I almost cried when Hil was about to cry!! She really was freaking out on stage!! Thankfully she was leaving for Hawaii for a vacation/taping a special for the WB of her 16th birthday! I also purchased the YM magazine because Hil was the cover girl of it!

Friday:

HIL: Her diary special aired today on MTV. It was called "Diary of Hilary Duff: In the Driver's Seat". The show basically focused around her want of a driver's license which she will be getting in a couple of months. Beyond that, there was no real secret ideas of her or so I thought. Apparently, on Aug 2, 2003, she got a tattoo on her left foot. I was kind of ugly covering all her toes and the top of her foot. I'm hoping that this is just a temp, but I doubt it. The question that should be asked is "Why at age 15, would she get a tattoo without her parents being present?" Even though her sister Haylie (age 18) was there, I still don't think it was appropriate for her to decide Hilary's tattoo. I am against tattoos, but I still love Hil very much despite this "mistake".

ME: I watched the diary special with the intent of learning some bizarre secret of Hil, but instead I was disappointed in her life choice. Otherwise, it was still a pretty good show. Hil was also featured briefly on "ET" (under 3 minutes) previewing her choice of clothes and taking that limo ride to the award show. Again, another disappointment in focusing in on her.

One thing I have realized about her and me is that both of us seem to be emotional and cry over the same sort of things. Maybe we are the same person in parallel worlds..

Hopefully, Hil hasn't disappeared for a month while taping her special, but I think she has!!

Yet Another Change!! Hilary Made Me Do This One!

The color of the background has been changed to green to reflect the tone of Hilary's site. Gone is the sweet pink tone. What a metamorphosis!

More Changes

I added another email address in which I can be reached at (hilary_and_lizzie_rocks@yahoo.com). I am surprised nobody had that one!! Yesterday morning around 4:30am, I finally heard "So Yesterday" on the radio. They said it was the #1 single this week!! Congrats to Hils on that one and that she made it all the way to #2 on TRL countdown show. Let's hope she gets to #1 this week. She has a very busy week by making appearances for her album on both coasts, making an appearance on TRL, and being a presenter at the MTV VMAs. I wish I had her easy life!!

Changes to Blog and Another Hilary Day

If you haven't noticed this blog has changed. The layout has changed to reflect the "pink" behavior of Hilary. (Truth is we are going to alter the color to real pink soon to look like Hilary's site!). Second, the name has changed to reflect what is really going on here! In case, you missed the last few posting Hilary is it! What I forgot to mention on a post last week is that about 5 minutes after the "Circle of Life" video aired, a short version of Hilary's song "Why Not" aired, which is also featured on the upcoming cd.

This week I purchased 2 magazines with Hilary. One was Tiger Beat with a jumbo poster of Hilary with a disco ball. It also had a jumbo poster of Avril too. I should have bought them all! The second one I purchased was GL (Girl's Life) magazine. When you look at the cover you will know why!

I also purchased the game of "What would LIzzie do?". This is a new game from MB. I purchased it just for the picture on the cover. I put the game on my dresser so that it is the last thing I look at night and the first thing I look at in the morning. I did say I was strange didn't I? (I'm sorry I just had another Lizzie moment!)

However, my biggest desire to get is the large cardboard cutout of Hilary at my neighborhood video store. I would LOVE to have this life size cut-out of her, but I am afraid to ask what will happen to it after they dispose of it! Maybe someone else has already put a claim in on it! But I know I would love to have it!! I stare at it everytime I go into the mall and blow kisses to it!! I did say I was strange didn't I? I am Lizzie..enjoy your day!! Oh and by the way check out the BRAND-SPANKING NEW E-MAIL ADDRESS I set up!! I thinks its totally cool!! What do you think..email me at it and tell me what you think!!

I bought this magazine for obvious reasons..need I say more!

The Marathon and Hilary Counter

Right now as I write this, I am in the midst of a Lizzie mini-marathon. 4 episodes back-to-back. Ironically, the more I watch the more I AM LIZZIE!! Awkward and clumsy and most importantly feeling insignificant at times. This really is a great show especially the bloopers they show at the end of each episode. Secondly, last night I saw the new Disney music video "Circle of Light" (from the Lion King) performed by the "Circle of Friends" group made up of stars from Disney shows led by Hilary herself. In fact, she got the top closing credit to the video and I counted 34 times(!! - yes I really did count EVERY appearance!) that she was on camera, possibly twice as many times as any other of the seven from the group. The video which mixed from the hit movie and live action singers was a wonderful adaptation of the song. Most liked part was Hilary..but you probably knew that already. By the way, her birthday is on September 28th and the WB will be airing a special birthday bash on that date (repeated from the 24th)!! Talk about a sweet 16 party!!

Lizzie & Mystery Lady Exposed!

This week, I purchased "The Lizzie McGuire Movie" as promised. I also bought the soundtrack and also bought the tv show soundtrack. Hey, they were on sale and I'm now a sucker for Hilary. (read that to be: I LOVE HILARY!!) I will probably be buying the album "Metamorphisis" when it is released Aug 29. Unfortunately, now for about the third or fourth week in a row, my favorite girl was no where to be found on Tuesday. However, everything changed Thursday, August 14, 2003 at 8:50pm....

The mystery girl (I know her first name, but I wasn't telling anyone) came into my workplace with her boyfriend (or brother, I hope) to purchase a computer table. Mind you I was shocked when I saw her, but she spotted me immediately. Since she didn't come through my counter, she WAVED and SMILED at me from the next register over. I, of course, waved, smiled, and sent a "hello" to her. So much for the secret.. Oh well, I will admit that I do like (no, I mean love) this girl!! It was only in the last week that she too has a vanity license plate on her car too. Great way to always know if she's working. Now that the secret is out, the truth be known that I am IN NO WAY offended by the way she looks!! I have finally realized that a relationship can come into being easier when you set different standards. No longer does a potential need to be blonde-haired, blue-eyed (yes, I still desire Julie too) or even other things (W & K still interests me). After the truth has now been revealed and that she knows where I work, does this make the relationship better or worse? Judging from what I saw Thursday night, better may be the answer!! More soon...bye for now!

That was "So Yesterday" and Yes IT IS Hilary's World!

A couple of weeks ago MTV aired a couple of specials that deserved my attention. First the second of the two specials was the "Diary of Avril Lavigne". If you thought she was a boy before, you will really think differently after watching this show. Especially, when she struts around in a black bikini. She is hot stuff, but like she said she doesn't like to expose herself like that. Too bad for me.

The first special deserving mention was a making the video special of Hilary Duff performing "So Yesterday". It is a very cute video and she is cute and yes she CAN sing! In fact , I liked the song so much that I bought the single last week from my favorite girl (where have you been lately?). Ironically, in less than a week 10 copies of this song sold, but at $1.99 it was a steal, just for the cover alone!! Even though she is only 15 years old (soon to be 16), she really is (can I dare say this) a very sexy young lady. Maybe this is why the cover of the soon to be released "Lizzie McGuire Movie" and "Agent Cody Banks" have sexy looking pictures of her on it! Yes, I did buy the "Cody Banks" DVD and I will be buying the other one as soon as it is released. Sad to say that neither of these two ladies are really old enough for me and that their combined ages are still younger than I am.

In other thoughts, the group Dream has released a new video called "Crazy" and these girls are hotter and sexier than ever. Lots of skin in this video. They too are very talented and cannot wait for their cd to be released in late August. It would be nice if they released a new set of dolls because I only got 2 of the original dolls and 1 of them (Melissa - the cutest one in my mind) is no longer with the group. But the new girl Kasey is very beautiful and makes a great fourth member to Holly, Ashley, and Diana. They along with Hilary are doing pretty well on MTV TRL, but could do much better. Neither have hit #1, but both deserve it!! We can only hope for the best!!
