The World Of Jadeey

Each Sunday I read Postsecret and every day I read LJ Secret. I like reading these websites. Some of the secrets make me cry, some make me relieved that I'm not living that pain, some I totally relate to and some just hit me in some unexpected way. Often I find myself needing to save a secret, sometimes to remind myself I'm not alone in my secrets and other times because something about the secret makes me sit up and take notice. As a result of this I have 320 secrets currently saved on my computer.

I have decided that every Thursday, for as long as I feel like it, I will post one of these secrets. Some might reflect my own secrets, others will have had a deep impact on me for one reason or another and still others will have been chosen because something small about them was enough to make me want to save it. I'm not going to tell you my reasons.

Don't read into them, don't think i'm trying to confess something. Because I'm not. I just want to share some of them.

And, if I have posted a secret that you made and you don't want it up there then please send me a message and I'll take it straight down.

I'm just headed out the door and suddenly realised I might not be home for midnight so better blog now.

So that's what this is.

Woo! It's Friday. That means it's the weekend AND it's new episode of The Office day. Does it get any better than this? I think not!

Right. By this point in time everyone who reads this blog knows that I love John Krasinski AKA Jim Halpert.

A long time ago I started watching the show Chuck. (Well, not a long time. It's only just starting its 2nd season.) A couple of episodes in I noticed that Zach Levi (Chuck) looks kind of similar to John Krasinski. My friends laughed and denied it. BUT I am not the only one who sees the similarities.

Zach Levi has said that people have thought he is John Krasinski before. And Wireimage (a very popular media website) had a photo of Zach Levi labelled as John Krasinski for a little while. See!!

If you need further proof:





Surely there can be no argument now? They don't look identical, but they do look similar. (Also, I ADORE Chuck. Clearly I have a 'type'.)

Is this post actually about The Office, you ask. Of course it is! John Krasinski is vital to The Office and any post about him is also about my favourite show. But, if you need more then I will also say that I am very sad because it isn't on this week. There is a US Presidential debate scheduled for the same time as The Office is usually on. This means there is still another 8 days until I get another episode. That's okay - I have plenty of other stuff going on in my life and presidential debates are very important. Go Obama!

For today I have hunted down some funny The Office videos for you guys.

First up we have my favourite character - Andy. See, I'm in love with Jim but I find Andy absolutely hilarious. My favourite moments are when he sings. This video combines all of his songs into one. Very cool. (I particularly love him singing Take a chance on me. Melts my heart every time.




Here is someones favourite The Office moments. It's labelled as the best Office moments, I think that's a bit of an exaggeration. They are good ones, but I wouldn't necessarily say they are the best. Especially considering it is missing two of my favourite moments (in videos below.) Anyway, these moments are all still very funny.




Everyone who loves The Office also loves the that's what she said joke. Here are a whole lotta that's what she said jokes all in one awesome video.




Okay, one of my favourite episodes is called Product Recall. The video of the best bits is below. I fully recommend the beginning and end of the video as it is Jim dressed up as Dwight and then Dwight dressed up as Jim. The middle is awesome too - but it's the beginning and end that are the funniest.




This next video has my favourite cold opens of all the cold opens at the beginning.



Apparently this take was the only time the exercise ball actually burst. Every other time it just deflated slowly, but on this take John Krasinski accidentally hit the seam and it popped. So the end is actually everyone out of character reacting to Rainn Wilson hitting the floor. I think that just makes it funnier.

And, just cos I can, here is John Krasinski with a very important public service announcement about jellybeans.



Makes me laugh EVERY time. And he is also completely correct. Black jellybeans are gross.

I have crushes on 2 actors from The Office. One is John Krasinski. I love him and plan to marry him someday. (And I have a foolproof plan, which I will detail at the end of this blog.) The other is Jenna Fischer. You know how on Rove he loves to ask his guests who they'd turn gay for? My answer is, without question, Jenna Fischer.

Here is a cute video of Jenna Fischer. (Very old.)




Here's John Krasinski on Craig Ferguson a couple of days ago.




And here is a fairly old video with both of them.




Oh boy. I like them.

Okay, for those of you who want to know my foolproof plan to meet John Krasinski (cos, let's face it, all I gotta do is meet him. Him then falling in love with and wanting to marry me is assured after that.) here it is. I am going to walk all around LA until I find him. Then I am going to quickly get a few paces in front of him and have a friend stage a mugging. I will collapse in a heap, pretending to have fainted. John Krasinski will come to my aid. And the rest will be, as they say, history. Yep. Foolproof.

(Yes, it's an Office quote - even if it is a very obscure one.)

As many of you know, as well as loving The Office, I also love Postsecret and LJ Secret. These two loves have overlapped a few times. Below are some Office-related secrets I've found. (No I didn't make any of them.)












See, I'm not the only person obsessed with The Office. :) And, yes, it's getting hard to continue these Office related blogs. I'm definitely running out of things to say about it. As much as I want to celebrate the return of my favourite show with a week of The Office blogs, I just don't think it's going to happen. Ah well.

Okay, I'm assuming any of my friends who actually want to watch the premiere of season 5 of The Office will have watched it by now. If you haven't then you really shouldn't read this blog.

Holly's favourite things about the season premiere:

1. Jim tried to get Dwight to beer him five
2. Holly (the character, not me) found out that Kevin isn't mentally challenged. In a very embarrassing way
3. That there was a goof and Ingrid picked it up immediately
4. Michael's goatee
5. Dwight's goatee
6. Jim is just ridiculously good looking
7. Jim proposed to Pam!
8. Pam went to the wrong class, and then didn't leave
9. Ryan is back, as the receptionist.
10. Jim wore a wet shirt after being caught in the rain. (Ha, caught proposing!)


My most favourite thing - the way John Krasinski says my name. I LOVE that there is now a character with my name on the show.

Yes, yes the title of this blog is actually an official quote from The Office. And, as this blog can attest, it is also sadly accurate in reference to me.

I watched the new episode today. And it was awesome. But I can't talk about it because I don't want to ruin it for anyone who hasn't watched it yet. So, instead, I'm going to post a video. This is one of my favourite John Krasinski videos. I did actually post this a long time ago, but it's worth posting again.




Okay, you can all see why I adore this guy right?

In celebration of the fact that my absolute favourite show in the world, The Office, is back tomorrow - I am going to do a series of Office related blogs for the next few days.

For anyone that is planning to watch the new season, but has forgotten what happened last season, here is a recap of season 4. (And for those of you who don't watch The Office... you're idiots - go and rent the dvds RIGHT NOW)

1. Jim and Pam started dating. Finally.
2. Pam ordered a celebrity sex tape. It gave her computer a virus.
3. Michael hit Meredith with his car.
4. Ryan grew a beard.
5. Dwight killed Angela's cat.
6. Michael drove into a lake.
7. The dvd screensaver box hit the corner of the screen.
8. Dwight thought the Dunder Mifflin Infinity website had come alive.
9. Jim and Pam visited Dwight's beet farm.
10. Michael declared bankruptcy.
11. Andy could only remember half of the kit kat jingle.
12. Dwight and Michael threatened to burn Utica to the ground.
13. Jim tried to combine all the birthday parties.
14. Michael expected to get screwed by his company, but did not expect to get screwed by his girlfriend.
15. Jim played ping pong.
16. Jim, Pam, Andy, Angela, Dwight and Dwight's old babysitter went to dinner at Jan and Michael's.
17. Jan made candles.
18. Michael fell in love with a dead chair model.
19. Jim warned Pam that a proposal is coming and it's going to kick her ass.
20. Jim and the gang got locked in at work.
21. Michael put his face in wet cement.
22. Jim re-routed all of Dwight's calls to his own phone.
23. Holly started at the office.
24. Michael fell in love with Holly.
25. Thanks to the above 2 points I got to hear John Krasinski (who I totally heart) say "love Holly". (Sure, it was the end of a sentence. But it still counts.)

Good stuff. Now you are all ready for season 5.

Today is Kat's birthday. And she's coming to visit on the weekend!! YAY!

Being an Office obsessed nut, and also incapable of singing myself (well incapable of singing in tune), I decided to let the cast of The Office sing her happy birthday for me. So I found a clip of them singing happy birthday and I found a clip of Michael saying Kat (actually he was saying meerkat) and I edited them together.

Here is the result (well, with a picture added so it's a real video and could actually be uploaded to youtube). I know it's silly, but Kat appreciated it and that is what counts. :D
