Media Monday on a Tuesday #14

Hello Everyone,
How have you been? I've been pretty good. Yesterday was my birthday! Sweet sixteen! woohoo I guess? I used to make a big deal out of my birthday but this year I kinda just wanted to be left alone. Well I'll make a haul video on that after Christmas probably because its TWO WEEKS TIL CHRISTMAS,and well the more gifts the better. Anyway it's Monday and you know what that means (if you got that reference I love you) Media Monday this week I have a boatload of stuff for you so go get some hot cocoa or tea. Did you do it?... good. Now get comfortable... go put on your fuzzy pajamas or onesie. Done?....good. Get comfortable in your chair, couch, bed, etc. Good?...okay.

First off let's start with movies I've seen since I last did one of these.
About Time 
I saw this movie and loved it. It's a total chick flick and you will cry but the storyline is so neat. This boy when he is 21 finds out that he can travel back in time and he uses that power to get a girl. It's a really cute love story that will blow your mind. The writing for this film is so good just the right amount of humor and wit to keep you interested. The cinematography was incredible. Everything about this movie is amazing. I highly recommend seeing this movie.
Frozen
I have been so excited for this movie since I first saw an ad in August. When I went to see this movie it met and went beyond my expectations. It's so cute and Olaf is the cutest thing in the freaking world. The story is great and the animation is spectacular. I highly recommend this movie too.
Catching Fire
I almost forgot about to add this one in. I saw this movie at 8pm the night it came out and LOVED IT. They aged Peeta and Katniss well. I was crying for a good 90% of this movie.I always really liked this book better because it got deep into the politics behind the hunger games and the revolutions that are caused by the 74th hunger games. This movie was amazing. Ten times better than the first. The director really made sure the movie was closer to the book than the last one. I saw this movie twice within 24 hours. It's that good. I HIGHLY recommend this movie.

Next is going to be music that I've been loving.
Midnight Memories By One Direction
This album came out almost 2 weeks ago and I can't stop listening to it. I already know all the words to all the songs. This album is so much better from the last ones. Their voices have gotten stronger and deeper. This album gives of the vibe of hard rocker's life and sex. I'm pretty sure almost every song can be taken in a sexual way. Which I'm sure alot of the fans will love because  the One Direction fandom is crazy. I really like the growth of this album compared to the last one. I really like that they had a hand in writing almost every song on the album which is really good most artists barely get creative input let alone write the songs. Even if you hate one direction or whatever your reason is check out this album theirs something on this album for everyone's musical taste.
See Me Now- Little Mix 
This is a song off of the deluxe version of their upcoming album Salute that is not yet out in the States. I fell in love with the harmonies, the rhythm, and the message of this song. The message of the song is basically don't let the past haters get you down because look where you are now. I think that's a message millions of young girls need in their life, we get so caught up in what happened in the past that we don't see how amazing our present and future is now. The song has an African safari vibe to it that's really amazing and really makes you want to move. I would definitely you listen to this song.

Concerts are something we all love and enjoy. Guess what? I went to one a few weeks ago.
The Justin Timberlake 20/20 Experience Concert
Where to start with this concert! it was amazing! Even though I didn't know as many songs as I thought I did I still had fun. We had really good seats. Going to concerts I always love knowing that all the people walking into the arena share the same passion of music or the artist as you do. When I go to concerts, being a dancer, I tend to spend equal time watching the back up dancers as the performer themselves. Let me tell you, if being a JT backup dancer was a job I would take it. Those people did an amazing job. You know walking into a JT concert that the dancing is bound to be amazing but this was above and beyond my expectations. It was incredible. I had 2 friends who had fourth row seats and one friend who had front row seats. JT actually interacted with my one friend who was dancing on top of her seat and he made an okay sign. It was an incredible concert from an incredible performer.


















Books can inspire you, make you cry and make you laugh. I recently read two books that make you do all three.
Looking For Alaska  By John Green
I finished reading this book Sunday night. I cried so hard but I laughed so much as well. The book is about this kid named Miles who goes off to a boarding school believing in something called the Great Perhaps.The Great Perhaps is was Francois Rabelais last words before he died. Miles wanted to go to seek his Great Perhaps. When he gets to the boarding school Miles, now renamed to Pudge, meets four people named Chip, he was given the nickname the Colonel, a girl named Alaska, a boy named Takumi and a Romanian exchange student named Lara. The book is all about the adventures these 5 go on. The middle of the book something happens leading to the most awesome prank ever.  John Green is an author that creates magic with the words he puts on the pages of his books. I wonder if John Green realizes how much he changes people lives with words on a page.
Papertowns By John Green
I read Papertowns a few weeks ago and I loved it. The idea of the popular girl next store taking this kid who has always loved her from a far, makes him take her on the best adventure of his life then just disappears the next day. Then its up to him to figure out where she went. I loved the idea of this book and several of my friends recommended that I read this book. I was glad I read the book. I really enjoyed the mystery aspect and the interactions between the main character's friends are too funny. The ending was a bit of a let down. I was fine with the ending I was just expecting a little more from John Green. If you're looking for a nice not too involved read then this is the book for you.


I believe that is it for this Media Monday! I know it's on a Tuesday but there was just so much I needed to cover I didn't get it done on Monday. On Wednesday the meeting Sam Edelman post will be up. I know that for sure because right after I'm done with this post I'm writing that one. I'm going to try something new for this Christmas. I'm going to be doing 12 Days Of Christmas blog posts. 12 consecutive days of blog posts. Ranging from how to decorate your room to the perfect Christmas outfit. the 12 days of Christmas will start on Friday the 13th and go til Christmas day. If you're worried I won't do all 12 days believe I'm scared too. This is going to push my organizational skills and my time budgeting skills to almost my very limit. I am determined to make it though. I hope you enjoyed this blogpost. I'll see you tomorrow for my Meeting Sam Edelman post.
