Wrap Up

Hi y'all!
Happy last day of the month!
For me, this month has been about tv shows with a bunch coming back and new ones starting.
The Fosters, Teen Wolf, Keeping Up With the Kardashians and Reign have all come back and they have all shifted and molded to a new view point which have kept me on my toes. Oh and being a teenage girl I cannot forget Pretty Little Liars. Then new shows have come about or I just started paying attention towards like The Bachelor (shoot me I am a female and he is hot) and Opposite Worlds plus Are You the One?!

 Every show has to have a love triangle apparently and The Fosters are no different. Now that Wyatt is gone, they brought in this cute, evil little triangle. I am not sure how I feel about it nor the extreme desire that Brandon has to be with Callie. He is quite intense regarding his puppy love but she needs someone! Everyone needs someone.






This is from last season but Stiles in this scene made me smile so much. Teen Wolf has gone darker than dark this season! Like legit evil demon dark. They are moving around couples it is such a different show in a sense this season than other ones. They brought in a new girl, Kira, whom I don't quite know what to make of because the story line around her is confusing but she makes Scott happy. Then Stiles might have helped the murder kill her, I don't know. It is confusing but I like it. Mostly because of Stiles and Isaac. Isaac is hot and he is morbid which is funny to me which is probably bad in a sense but I don't care.







This family, I don't even know where to begin. They are so screwed up on a level that it is hilarious. There values on certain terms like family is amazing and something to applaud them for but other things it is like WTF?! The show is a guilty pleasure for me. There is no real rhyme or reason behind the episodes other than something that they cook up like last Sunday it was Kris wanting to be on Broadway. Before that it was something about Scott finding a hobby and lying about karate. It is so stupid but the way they handle it is insanely comical.








 I love Frary and extrememely unpleased by the fact that Canada gets to watch the new episodes before us Americans. But the new episode last night was so good with the Catherine situation and the baby! I actually now don't mind Bash but still prefer Francis. I have 2 posts talking about Reign already here and here for y'all.














Sorry to all of my friends but I would have stopped trying to find you after the second death. Allison was not a friend to risk life for sorry but she wasn't. I want to know how much longer can they prolong the life of the show? Is it going to be like Soap Opera's where they continue for 15 years or is it going to send before the actors turn 30? I am frankly getting bored with this show at this point. It is getting ridiculous. They sent Caleb away which I am disappointed about since they were my favorite couple. Spencer is now crazy and nearly a druggie. Aria is oblivious which makes me bad. Emily is partly stupid and in love still but at the same time realistic regarding certain life aspects.









I am incredibly late on this trend but I love it now. I was watching Sweet Home Alabama on CMT but that show ended and this one came on! He is so sweet and genuine; it is adorable. My favorite girl is becoming Kelly, the dog lover, or both single moms. I don't quite know about some of the others but the Hippie was hilarious and real which I thought was good but I don't blame him for getting rid of her.










This is a new show on Syfy. It is a game show that is an experiment to see if technology affects the performance of humans through having a team live in the future with tons of technology then another team life in the past like cavemen. They are actually having viewers become a part of it by using Twitter to provide rewards and punishments for players. Each week a player leaves the game through a competition. Each team, the future and past, gets to vote for one member to be safe from elimination. These two players are then voted on by America to select who gets to pick the 2 players to go against each other. The loser goes home while the winner returns to their team. It's interesting in my eyes.

This is the cast/ contestants for MTV's new reality/ game show where they have to find their soul mates in order to win the cash prize. They all have find their sole mate it is such a strategy game which is why I love it! I could so help them win this game quicker because I have that mind set where I strive in these situations where you have numerous moving pieces but all you need is a plan. Of the players, I hate Shanley. I think she is only in this for herself but it is a team game. They need all 20 people to become pairs of 10 that are matches but she is hooking up with Chris who has already been deemed not her match. Stupidity.

So those have become some of my favorite shows this month. I hope you check them out!
Love y'all!

Sanity Sunday

Hey y'all!
It is officially a new week. We can make this week whatever we want whether we want it to be amazing where we pass all three of our test or awful and depressing where I don't study and fail them all. It is up to us to make this week the best we can!

In the Game of Life (the board game), you keep going, rolling the dice and moving spaces.

The same is for actual life except you are handed the pre-rolled dice and just keep moving. 

There is nothing forcing you to keep moving except for yourself. You have to keep moving forward

as is said in Meet the Robinsons!

I recently found this quote on Instagram which is one of the best places to find cute quotes likes this one. Pinterest is too but I prefer Instagram's app over Pinterest's app.

You can also find quotes like this one from Harry Potter! Which is also great

inspiration because in reality, we are all muggles and nobody is greater! As Dr. Seuss said something

along the lines of: no one is youer than you! So just be you and don't let anything they say hurt 

you because rubber and glue. If you don't know the saying, google it:)

My goal until next Sunday is to accept changes in life and be caught up on my Speech reading. I hate change which is pretty sad because I am by no means old and relating to some saying about how old people hate change. I don't know. I might as well be old for that aspect. I shall let you know how that goes.

Goo Luck and Love Y'all!!

Flashback Friday

Hi Y'all!
Spoilers for Reign!!

So it is Friday as I am writing this post and I have had one thing on my mind all day. Last night's episode of Reign, "For Kind or Country." It blew my mind. I just don't know anymore.
1st off, since the pilot episode I don't know who to pity anymore. I tweeted that it has rearranged my emotions and it has. I now like and pity Catherine even though she does awful things. I hate what is happening to her in the show. She is losing everything including her title. Her son whom she has done everything for said that he would kill her as his first act of King. Poor thing is all I can help to say when I think about everything happening to her.
Then there is the love triangle. I am on team Francis. I love the love that Mary and him have. It is so cute and I think it can last forever if they stop being stupid. The two of them just do some of the stupidest things regarding each other like breaking off relations and running away from happiness! It is ridiculous. Mary is gonna cause an uproar in two countries now! A majority of France is going to absolutely hate this change like if this was to happen in England now, Americans and Europeans would cause an uproar. Then goodness when Mary tries to take over England, something awful is going to happen since they love Elizabeth who has connections.
I read an interview today that says a wedding will happen by the end of the season. I do not think it is going to be Mary and Bash because realistically there goes the plot of the show. I am hoping that it might be Greer. Her and the Leith's relationship is so raw and natural. It is simply adorable. If it isn't their wedding, I'm not sure who else it might be unless the writers are brave enough to have Mary wed and face the wrath of hundreds of people. That wedding would probably raise views quite a bit but then afterwards they are probably gonna drop because the plot will mostly start to disintegrate cause what is gonna happen? I cause Mary could play around with Francis but I don't see her as that type of girl to cheat on her husband. I just don't know.

 All I wanted was for them two to run up to each other and hug!

Does anyone else find it interesting how Mary was all about the crown hair accessories in this episode? It's like she is trying to prove that she is a queen. 

Catherine is quite the predictable woman apparently. I can't believe that he would just go and kill them without a second thought.

I am so excited we get to find out the truth about Clarissa soon. Personally I believe that she was a lover of Henry or Francis or maybe she is Bash's sister. How crazy would that be?! I feel like Diane has some secrets hidden away.

This photo is not from this episode but I couldn't help it. Look how cute they are together. Please let the wedding be theirs!!

Y'all let me know your opinions on the show!

Love y'all!

DIY: Shirts

Hey y'all!

So I have been cleaning out my drawers and found these two t-shirts below, they both have sentimental value, and I wouldn't wear them in their current state so I decided to make them cuter.

 These (1st photo) two shirts my old friend and I DIY'ed this summer with painters tape,

spray paint and star stickers. Love them and they did great as inspiration for these.
Middle photo is from "'Merica Day" at school.
Last one is while we were cutting them after they dried and sweatpants are the
best thing ever along with leggings. You know it's true.

First thing first, we got have music, which mine came from YouTube today, and scissors. 

   

1st Shirt!

Always cut the fringe shorter because you can't add some back.
It is like hair except it doesn't grow back. Wait... might have gotten that backwards...
Oh well!

  

Tada! All done!

2nd Shirt!

Sorry for my bra but you can see the bow better on me.
This one you have to try on more cause the strap thickness and neck size all matter
based on your likeness.
Also this shirt is from a blood drive, and I, like a lot people, think you should donate if you can!

Blood donation website: http://www.redcross.org/blood

Used the app Fotor for collages. 

Good luck with all y'all do!

Love y'all!!

PS Reign comes back to America tomorrow!!!

Opinion: TV, Movie, Book

Hi y'all!
Spoilers are throughout regarding Reign and Mortal Instruments!

I am soooooooo happy and yes that many o's are necessary. On Thursday January 23rd, Reign is coming back! I absolutely love the show staring Mary who is Queen of Scotland and her time in the French Court currently awaiting her time to marry Francis who is currently first in line for the throne. The reason I have been saying currently is because I am not sure what is going to happen when the season returns because of how the season left as Mary was running away with Bash of all people. It has been known that Bash loves or at least extremely intrigued with Mary and there are feelings in her for him. I am on team Francis which the whole team and love triangle makes me think all about Twilight which then makes me think of Mortal Instruments series which is way better than Twilight in my opinion.

Sorry if its hard to read the words but it is such an expression of Mary. ep 4

 Again sorry if you can't read them. ep 5

 Favorite scene of all. ep 1

I liked this almost couple. Bash should be with Lola! ep 4

On the topic of Mortal Instruments, I am not happy with their movie. Did the script writers even bother to do a time line and make notes on the plot of the books? I have been waiting on the movie since I saw the trailer and read the books to be highly disappointed with the movie. I frankly don't know how they are gonna do the second movie since the movie left on the completely wrong note as Valentine did not have the mortal cup in the movie like he is supposed to in order to progress the story line. Then  Hodge is still present as opposed to running away and leaving the institute. They have so many issues within the movie which does not do the book any justice to his greatness. It is truly a great series and so are the Clockwork trilogy which is a prequel type for them.

What is with his hair? I don't even know. I'm not even gonna bother with how they did runes in the movie.

I just do not know what is gonna happen in any of these works. If you do, please share!

Naked Juice

Hey y'all!
Lately juicing has become bigger than it has ever been. I remember when I was either a freshman or late middle school that my mom got a book called Clean which is all about balancing your diet to find food allergies by doing what is called the cleanse. Basically, you go on a really strict diet of juice/ smoothies for breakfast and dinner then obeying real strict laws for lunch like no gluten, diary, beef ect. I participated with my family and those smoothies were really feeling, but I lacked self-motivation although I did complete it without cheating. (yay me!)
Shay from the Shaytards has done quite a few juice cleanses lately and it has made me want to do it. Recently he has been doing one to start off the diet bet him and Collette have for the new year. I personally do not have the time to juice fruits and vegetables myself nor wish to go full out, so I have been drinking pre-juiced drinks for breakfast a couple of days during the week. They are really convenient for lazy school mornings. My selection being I am in a small, southern town is limited so I pick up the Naked juices from my local Walmart. All of the ingredients are printed clear as day on the size and all natural without added sweeteners which I love.

1) This one has a cleansing feeling and strong cherry taste. Side note: it has

 purple carrot in it which my friends & I are surprised it exist.

2) This one has not been a favorite so far. I'm not sure if I am not used to mango, 

but it smells like medicine to me.

3) This juice is sweet with the berries and banana.

I tend to drink an entire bottle in the morning on the way to school which is about 7 am, and I stay full and content until around 11 to 12.
If you are working on losing weight or even being a part of the Shaytard's diet bet, I wish you the best of luck and know you can do it. I believe in you all with all of your goals whether it is to lose weight, be healthy or break a bad habit. You can do it!

Same Songs!!

Hey y'all!

So recently I have grown real tired of the radio and the 20 or so songs that are always being played over and over again. It's especially awful when the same song like Timber is being played on multiple stations. I just can't deal with it sometimes anymore which I don't know if it's because my music taste has grown away from the cookie cutter pop or what, but I thought I would share some bands that have been heard of less or it is only one song they have that you have heard on the radio but not their only song worthy of your time.

1) Bastille- which has had Pompeii played occasionally on the radio but they have tons more to offer including covers and originals with a message.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87wvrnufZ6U

2) The Lumineers- who have not been mentioned for anything since Hey Ho. This band does require a bit of a taste for their type of music but once you give them a chance and listen to their lyrics your eyes will be opened.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJmEvVStqkU

3) Twin Forks- who have become one of my favorites since their song, Back to You, was played in the premiere of Reign during the feather scene. They are moderately new and finally have an album scheduled to be released February 25th!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yegf9ipzYHw&list=PL264zwCcvoMCpl1she1pwq0OIWzPPWevb&index=3

4) Echosmith- which one might have seen in the commercials of Teen Wolf. They are for siblings who have a message I believe in their lyrics.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Yxx1sL_WWg

5) Passenger- they like Bastille have one song on the radio, Let Her Go, but so many beautiful songs that are uplifting yet honest.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Efp7Zhcb-gM

Clearly I like bands who have a message but there is something about a song that isn't just about sex, partying and relationships. There is so much more to life then all of that. Yes, I am aware that not all major songs are about all of that since Disney's Frozen's album did become number one on iTunes but there is only so many times that one can be asked to build a snowman. You know?

I hope you click on the links and they work!

Love y'all!

Gift for All

Hey y'all!
Less than 2 weeks ago, it became 2014. With a new year, new adventures and as many believes a fresh start comes as well. I do not fully believe that a new year brings a new start but if it helps one to better them self to believe that then okay.
Today one of my friends is celebrating his birthday so in my mind (which many of my friends do not want to enter) I thought why not have my first non-introductory post be about presents since the new year entails everyone having a birthday. For me when I select presents for people it has to be three things:
1. Unique meaning something different than what everyone else is going to get them whether it is a strange print on a gift card or wrapped strangely which is one of my favorite things to do
2. Functional because I do not want to give something that is going to be sitting on a shelf requiring them to dust it every couple weeks. During Christmas, I gave people things like hot chocolate and shampoo even a lint roller because I knew they would use it.
3. Personalized just for the receiver. I want them to look at the gift or gift wrapping knowing that it is just for them.
One of my favorite gifts that I gave my best friend for her 16th birthday was a tumbler that had blue stripes and dots. I then had her initial monogrammed onto it. I then filled it with jelly beans because I call her Jilliebean and she loves sugar.
Here is what I have done for my friend's birthday that we are celebrating today. I suck at knowing what to get guys so I tend to drift towards gift cards for them which I know has statistics saying that they don't get spent but oh well! To personalize and make it unique, I wrote the little poem about it for him while drawing on the envelope the guy about to jump out of the plane which is what he wants to do for a career.

I hope this helps at least one of y'all to pick out a gift for someone!
Love y'all!!

Introduction

Hi!
So I have been into watching YouTube videos, I love how those girls and guys have this way of expressing themselves to the world, and I want that. Plus I love helping people and I think this might be a way for me to express myself and help people. Right now, I'm thinking of posting one to two times a week on topics such as preparing for college which I am doing currently as I am a senior in high school right now as well as random things like movie reviews and D.I.Y projects. Let me know if there is anything specific that you want me to post about.
Have a great week!!
