Whatcha Waiting For?

I sometimes feel as though I spend my entire life waiting for one thing or another. Waiting to grow up, waiting to go to college, then graduate, wait to get married, have a house, a kid.... forever and ever. Once one thing happens there is always something else that you are waiting for, be it long or short term.

Like right now on my short term list: I can't wait til the weekend and for our trip to the amusement park at the end of the month.

On the longer term list: My sister's wedding next April and a real vacation (that may never happen).

So to get me through the big waiting lists I have composed a list of movies, TV Shows, games and books that I can barely wait to see, read, play, or re-see.



Movies to See (in no particular order):
1.   Brave - Pretty sure my 2 1/2 year old would love this, she loved Tangled
2.   Batman (Dark Knight Rises) - Hubby loves the Batman Series and I love Christian Bale, good enough reason to see it.
3.   Catching Fire- Still waiting to hear who all made the cast list. Hope some of my dream list make the cut.
4.   Great and Powerful Oz - I love everything Wizard of Oz, James Franco and Mila Kunis
5.   Hangover 3 - I hope that they switch it up again, I am just wondering if there is anything left for them to do.
6.   Toy Story 4- ?? WHAT ? Is it possible? I have no idea what they could do, but I will watch it!
7.   Ready Player One - The book was awesome, I hope they do it justice.
8.   Les Miserables- Love the story and the music. Not sure about some of the actor selections though.
9.    The Great Gatsby - Love Leonardo DiCaprio and the trailer looked awesomly deco.
10.  The Host – So Stephanie Meyer’s Twilight Series was readable in book form but I didn’t care for the movies. Lets pray that this adaptation is better. Personally I like this book the best out of her books.


TV Shows:
1.      Futurama - Ok I know the newest season is on tv right now... but alas I have DirectTV and they are not getting along with the carrier of Comedy Central, thus no Futurama until they make friends.  :(  Best Show EVER!
2.      How I Met Your Mother- We are getting closer to finding out all the answers that I have been waiting for since season 1. Hope they don't disappoint.
3.      Big Bang Theory - I just want Leonard and Penny to be happy... together. Those wacky guys have to grow up at some point.
4.      Revolution - This is JJ Abrams newest show. Hopefully, they will keep it on longer than Alcatraz (which I will miss). Its about how our world would change without the use of electricity. I think it could be a great show.


Video Games:
1.      South Park Game - OMG I feel like a middle schooler all over again, giddy thinking about it.


Books:
1.      Dead Ever After (Charlaine Harris)- Hoping that this completes the series by answering everything I want it to. The last few books have disappointed but perhaphs she was waiting to show all her cards at the end.
2.      Anything by Rick Riordan- this guy is awesome, even if the books are geared towards kids.
3.      J K Rowlings upcoming book - even if its not Harry Potter.
4.     Anything by Meg Cabot - I love her Princess Diary books and Heather Wells series.


So what are you waiting for?
