Nicole Alyse

To put it plainly, she's the most gorgeous blogger out there. She has a tumblr at http://nicolealyse.tumblr.com and she posts everything from fashion to her life to music. She also updates it quite often which is unusual for a blogger once they reach a certain point, so it's always nice.

Chloë Grace Moretz

This picture is from who knows where, I found it on Tumblr. But as you can see, she is growing up very well; getting more gorgeous each day. Not to sound creepy, but she's hot! Haha, she really is, she has a great body for a 14-year-old. Can you believe it? And she wears clothes that compliments it, so that's always better. I just can't wait to see her in other movies. She's such an extraordinary actress! Also, if you haven't seen 'Let Me In' yet, see it now. Rent the dvd. It is way too good. It's based off a version from another country I think, but this one's better, I bet :)

This picture is from a music video she was in for Best Coast called 'Our Deal'. It's a really great song depsite the music video, so go listen! She falls in love with Tyler Posey who plays Lucky, one of the Day Trotters. She plays Veronica, a Night Creeper. It's a classic Romeo and Juliet, West Side Story type of deal. Just modern with Best Coast playing. They're all good actors in this music video, playing out a tragic love story with gangs and cute clothes. Included in this star cast is Shailene Woodley who's on Secret Life of the American Teenager, Donald Glover on Community, Alia Shawkat from The Runaways, and Miranda Cosgrove from iCarly. I loved this music video, it's so great. And the good thing about music videos that don't typically have the actual band in it, but they play out a story line like this, makes it better to watch.

Across the Universe

 DON'T READ. I'VE NEVER SEEN IT. This is going to be about the music. I am planning to see it very soon, though. This movie was actually the beginning of my obsession with The Beatles. The first version of the song 'I Want to Hold Your Hand' was by T.V. Carpio, who plays Prudence in the movie, which is from the song 'Dear Prudence'. When I heard that version I immediately went to listen to the original and fell in love. I listened to almost all of the albums non stop afterwards and was, what you could call, sick with insanity. For them, of course. My favorite at the moment is still Abbey Road, but I'm favoring the White album a little more now. Anyway, Across the Universe for me song wise, has to be just spectacular. I haven't even seen the whole movie and I already can plainly see that the characters are picked out so perfectly. Everyone's perfect for the character the play, and I just love the fact that they're all named after a Beatles' song! I just love that. The only songs I like in the movie that I like a tad bit for than the originals, are the mashup of Flying/Blue Jay Way/I am the Walrus. That song and the scene it has just epitomizes the LSD and mind altering drugs they experimented in that time. I love how they showed it; making everything all trippy. It's exactly how they saw it! The other is It Won't Be Long sung by Evan Rachel Wood who plays Lucy. I haven't heard the original of that one yet, because I'm honestly too lazy to look it up. The last one is Because. Now, I love them both equally, but both for different reasons. The ATU version is sung more sing-y, if you get me. It's just contains a little more vocalization throughout, which is just beautiful, along with their harmonies. The Beatles' harmony in the original version took me too, because it's just so great. Harmonies always get me.
So, I know people probably won't read this, but it was fun putting my new obsession for the songs in this movie into blog form :)

Hippies, Woodstock, The Beatles, 60s & 70s.

No words can express how bad I wish I was born then.

Soul Surfer

Soul Surfer stars AnnaSophia Robb, Dennis Quaid, and Helen Hunt. It also includes Lorraine Nichols, Jack Nichols daughter, and Carrie Underwood who we all know as American Idol winner, and country singer.
This is the real life story of Bethany Hamilton, a surfer who got her arm taken by a shark in a tragic accident. But more good came out then bad from losing her arm. AnnaSophia Robb portrays Bethany Hamilton in this movie, and may I say she did a great great job. It made me cry! Or tear up :) I saw it twice with my sister, and it's just one of the best movies I've seen this year. My immense love for AnnaSophia was resurfaced after seeing this movie. It's on on DVD today, actually! I'm gonna get it :D

The term 'soul surfer' is the title of the movie and the book Bethany Hamilton
wrote years ago, but the 'soul' part of it also refers to their familys faith in
Jesus Christ. They are Christians, so that was a huge part of the movie.
AnnaSophia and Lorraine, who played the childhood best friend were shown
at youth church, their whole family at church, and on a mission trip. They
read the Bible and quoted scriptures in the movie, too. I think it's great that
they did that, or made it evident in the movie. Bethany Hamilton and her
family wanted their faith to be characterized in the movie because it's
what really went on! They weren't just gonna not do something. If you're
gonna do something, do it right, ya know? :)

Planetshakers

This Love by Planetshakers, an Australian band. Christian band. I'm a devout Christian, just trying my best through God to use me. I'm just making mistakes a lot, trying to get back on track now. I think I'm doing well. I'm praying for him to just bless me and use me, so that'll help.

They played this song at my church, Calvary this previous Sunday. I love it! My mom said it reminds her of a modern day Beatles song, and I definitely agree. She knows the Beatles are one of my favorite oldies bands. So it made me even happier! I just love this song so, so much.

Hey hey I'm in love with You/
I'm sold out for You/
You are everything to me!

Hey hey I believe in You/
Lord I know that no one/
Can take this love away/
I'm gonna praise You everyday!

Just a little snippet of my favorite part of the song. You just get to really sing out and it's amazing. Personally, I think the reason I love this song so much is because it literally expresses what Jesus means to me. I'm in love with him, I'm sold out for Him, He's everything to me. I believe in Him, no one can take His love away. It's all true. :)

Mumford and Sons

And I took you by the hand/
And we stood tall/
And remembered our own land/
What we lived for.

And there will come a time, you'll see, with no more tears/
And love will not break your heart, but dismiss your fears/
Get over your hill and see what you find there/
With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair.


I will die alone and be left there/
Well I guess I'll just go home/
Oh God knows where/
Because death is just so full and man so small/
Well I'm scared of what's behind and what's before.

And there will come a time, you'll see, with no more tears/
And love will not break your heart, but dismiss your fears/
Get over your hill and see what you find there/
With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair.




- My favorite part of the song 'After the Storm' by Mumford and Sons. Their album Sigh No More is probably the best album ever, I love every song on it. Definitely worth listening to.

OPI

All of these nail polishes I either have or want. I love OPI, their nail polishes last forever, even without a top coat. 8.00 a bottle is worth it. They're amazing.

I have this one. It's such a beautiful gold. Super pretty shimmer to it, too.

Miley Cyrus

I have loved Miley Cyrus since Hannah Montana, but I honestly love her even more off of it because it's just more mature. She doesn't have to make stupid faces to express her emotions because it's Disney Channel and that's what they want. She can make mistakes without people threatening to 'not watch her show anymore.' She can kind of just be more her, seeing as she's been 18 for a little while now, she's legally free to do whatever she wants. Especially since her Gypsy Tour has really revealing clothing. Anyway, I love her, her style, her makeup, her hair - everything. She's amazing as well as a great singer, and I love The Last Song! Liam Hemsworth is too hot, and he has an Australian accent? They're amazing.

Adele

This is a recent favorite. Her album, 21 deserves some serious recognition, and even awards. This is one of the best albums ever, and this is just one of the great songs that's come out of it. It's called Set Fire to the Rain.

The Kardashians. Well, the Jenners.

So aside from being gorgeous teenagers on one of America's favorite reality tv shows, there's inside that they might be getting their own show! Which would be good for the younger viewers, because some of them just might not be all that interested in Kim, Khloe, and Kourtney. But I think that they're beautiful, and hilarious. If they had their own show, I would watch it. Plus, they have great taste in clothes! They also have their own YouTube channel! Just type in 'kendallandkylie' and something will come up :)

Late Night Shows

How I Met Your Mother is one of my favorite shows this summer. I watch it on Lifetime at 10:00 - 11:00. I know it sounds lame that I'm actually home at 10:00, but don't worry - this is only on the weekdays :). This show is absolutely hilarious, and I think everyone should watch it. I actually only started watching it a month or two ago, and it's awesome because I don't have to wait for a new episode because it's been on since 2005! 

Chelsea Lately is such a hilarious show! I've been watching it since last summer - I know, late - but better late than never. It actually makes me laugh at the things Chelsea and who ever's on her round table that night say. They're all just so funny and this show is just the best.

This show I started watching because it came on after How I Met Your Mother. And that night, I'm so happy I didn't change the channel because this show is the best! If you don't know, the lady in the picture is Julia Dreyfus, she was on Seinfeld in the 80s, or whenever it was on. I never watched it. But this show has been on    since 2005 and it's still on now. New episodes, I don't know. But there's episodes from this year. I seriously suggest this show to everyone, also.

Will & Grace is probably my favorite out of all of these. This one comes on at midnight, and it just makes me laugh so hard! Eric McCormack, Debra Messing, Megan Mullally, and Sean Hayes make up the best group in a tv sitcom, ever. I love this show to death. It started in '98 and ended in '05, so a pretty long run. I have no other words for it except that I love it! It's the best! Watch it!

Beginner

Hi! I'm new to this, obviously. I'm not looking for this to be a specific type of blog. It's going to be an everything blog. Fashion, life, diary-esque, food, hair, anything and everything. A place to put things I might not be able to put on Tumblr, Twitter, or Facebook. So, this is my first post. There will be many more! I'll post my outfit, face, how my day went, what I did, etc. It'll change as I go probably, but for now I think that's how it'll go.
Bye! :D
