Dear Mrs. Price, I'm sorry but I'm going to fail your english midterm because I know I'll be up late the night before

(To those of you who couldn't infer from the title of this blog post, Mrs. Price is my lovely American Literature teacher.)

Unfortunately, I'll have to disappoint her because I can already promise I'll be up late the night before her exam (not studying) because Skins premieres Jan. 17 on MTV...and I'll be watching it despite the much needed sleep I'm sure I'll be craving.

For those of you who don't know, Skins is a phenomenally entertaining show focused around the troubles of "typical" teenage life, if a bit extreme at times. (Think Degrassi but muuuch better acting and plot.)

Anyway, while this is the highly anticipated American version of the show, it originated with a British cast and anyone with a computer and willpower can watch up through the most recent season of that one on websites like this.

So enjoy, I hope you're as psyched for this as I am!
