Do Re Mi

Hello again. For some reason, every time I have an epiphany or just the urge to write about my life, I'm in the shower of all places. And by the time I get to my computer to actually write, I don't know what I should say... But I'll try my best. I'm in my second semester of nursing school. Not working, just school. And it's actually okay. I don't feel like my life is consumed by school and I feel like I have adequate time to study. I also feel super fortunate that I don't have to work while doing this because, well, that would kind of really suck as it would leave no room for life. So I can say, because I'm not working while in nursing school, in this second semester, I can still have a life. :D Albeit a simple life, since I'm on a strict budget. For 'fun', I've been doing what most people who are trying to save money do when they have no rights to spend on leisure. And that is watch movies and TV series and K-dramas and Youtube...

Today I decided to go see the movie "Lucy" after work with sis. After meeting incentives for my job, me and other coworkers on our team all got gift cards and one of them was for the local theater. ^^ "Lucy" is about an American woman studying in Taiwan who gets thrown into a drug trafficking deal.  She's knocked out and wakes up on a hotel bed to find out she's been turned into a 'drug mule' that's assigned to transport drugs to Europe. Under unknown circumstances she becomes held captive by Taiwanese thugs, gets abused and kicked in the abdomen, and that causes the bag of drugs to break and wreak havoc in her system.  Eventually, she finds that the drug somehow gave her superhuman control over her brain. The movie was really entertaining and I was always anticipating what she would do next as her ability to control her brain increased. In the beginning of the movie, I took note of how the scenes would switch between 'Discovery...

Hello, hello!  How is everyone doing?  I must be doing pretty well since I actually made a new post within a reasonable amount of time, lol. The last post was a insanely long one about why I think an anime couple should be together forever...  Sorry, it was obsessive, I know.  I just love that couple and if anyone else watches the anime, maybe you'll understand my feels.  xD A long cold front has hit us once again.  This has resulted in me and my dogs reverting to couch potatoes. One thing I'm happy about tho, is that I finally got my YesStyle package and it arrived before it snowed! I got 2 jackets, a beanie, and two leggings.  Initially I ordered 3 jackets but one was indefinitely out of stock.  D:  It's kind of disappointing since their website didn't even have a notice that they were out of stock..  Well, what can you do?... Below are the jackets I got delivered. Here's what the jackets look ...

This is a comedy type of trend that I've been seeing on youtube lately.  I'm sure there are tons others but these are fairly popular and they seem to have been popping up one after the other.  I've found 4 youtube channels that all have a similar theme.  Movie parodies .    Tobuscus ScreenJunkies BadLipReading CinemaSins I put these in order from who seemingly started the theme.  I went by the dates of the videos so if that's inaccurate, I'm sorry, I was going by the youtubers' channel info. I feel that Tobuscus is truly the one who started the movie parody theme because I had seen his video from way back, at least a couple years ago.  The first video I watched by him was the Harry Potter literal trailer. It's really fun and entertaining.  The first movie trailer parody I've ever seen. After this, it must have taken about a year later for me to discover the other channels and I'm thinking I may have seen one of BadLipReading's ...

Since I've been watching lots of movies these days, I thought it would be cool to share what I've been watching and my brief thoughts on each of them.  I think these short movie batch reviews might be cool if you're looking for something that's not too deep but just a short snippet of what I thought of them.  Enjoy! Prometheus  Rating: 5/10 The first thing I thought about this movie was why do they have to have so many landscape shots for the first 10 minutes of the film?  lol  Did they have any significance?  I don't think so... This movie was pretty much what every critic told you to expect.  I read all the spoilers and reviews before watching this so I wasn't as disappointed as I should have been.  I wasn't even freaked out by anything.  And they call this a thriller... =_= I highly recommend anyone who watches this movie to pirate it (as to not waste your money) and make sure to read spoilers, critic reviews, and parodies before...

Hello friends!  I had the opportunity to watch two of the biggest summer movies with my dad in theaters within a day of each other (Star Trek Into Darkness and Iron Man 3).  Since I watched Star Trek Into Darkness first, it shall be the first to be reviewed. Surprisingly, after absolutely LOVING the first Star Trek movie, I wasn't all that excited about the second one.  Maybe I was getting tired of movies always having this trend of getting darker as the series go on.  :/ Besides all that, I was taken aback at how great this movie was.  I don't know what I was expecting and I couldn't exactly imagine a Star Trek movie being bad; I have this sci-fi, space travel bias.. This movie had everything: -Drama -Action (tons of it) -Fights on moving vehicles -Alien duke outs -Battles in warp -Hostage bargaining -Suspense -Romance -Space jumps -Politics -Deception, -Character development -Great villain -Awesome CGI & practical fx -AND they eve...

I went to see the last installment of the Twilight Series, Breaking Dawn Part 2 just because I had already watched the first three so I'm like, we've gotta watch the last one, just for the hell of it, lol.  I went with mom on this one. And so ironic that in the post just before this one I'm b*tching her out, lmao.  Well, if it sounds that serious, it's not really.  Our personalities are just SO alike, that we often clash with each other.  We get over it fairly quickly. If people look at reviews for the whole Twilight Series, it's often leaning toward the negative which I understand, because there are TONS of Twi-Haters out there.  I think it has something to do with them hating Stephanie Meyer's guts because her writing style sucks with her love for repetitive adjective spamming and they wonder HOW and WHY her books somehow got popular, even getting turned into movies.  I personally don't hold any hatred for Mrs Meyer.  Sure, she's set feminis...

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OOOOOOOOOOOMFG!!!  This movie was seriously the freaking BEST of the summer!  I don't think anything's gonna top this one. The theater was pretty crowded seeing that it was only a few weeks after the mass shooting incident (my condolences and prayers go to those victims).  I felt bad for those people while sitting in that dim theater before the movie.  I thought about how horrified they must have felt when the realized that there was a real shooter trying to kill everyone there......  I probably can't even imagine.  They only wanted to watch a good movie!  I find it really sad that there are people in this world who feel like they have the right to take the lives of others, especially innocents.  That man who killed those people, he's not only a murderer, he's a thief.  He didn't just kill them, he also took them away from family/friends who loved them.  Well, the movie was nothing short of amazing, as...
