Music Friday: She Looks So Perfect

TGIF!  Actually we may have a major snowstorm this weekend which could ruin all my plans.  Also I'm sick which totally sucks!  Enough about me though let's just enjoy some music.  I'm actually really excited about today's share.  It is She Looks So Perfect by 5 Seconds Of Summer or 5SOS.  I saw them in concert last summer when they opened up for One Direction.  I've loved them ever since.  This week they released this song and I constantly have it in my head.  They are Australian and cute.  I'm kinda in love with Ashton who is the drummer.  Let me know your thoughts.  Enjoy!

♥Weekly Obsession!♥

Welcome to my new Wednesday posts!  I have MANY obsessions so I thought why not share them with all of you.  This week's obsession is the TV show The Voice.  I've watched every single season and it keeps getting better and better.  So far this is one of my favorites and there has only been two episodes.  First of all I love that Shakira and Usher are back.  I just feel like they fit better with Adam and Blake.  They should replace Christina and Ceelo permantly.  So far the talent is INSANE!  I'm going to have a hard time rooting for just one person.  Each week I'm going to ask a question for you guys to answer related to my obsession.  What song would you sing as your audition and which coach would you choose?  I'd sing 22 by Taylor Swift and of course I'd choose Adam because.........he is HOT!  Duh!

Motivational Monday: Love Yourself!

Happy Monday!  This week is National Eating Disorders Awareness Week.  I have actually suffered from an eating disorder when I was about 11 or 12.  It's still something I struggle with daily.  There is so much pressure put on us that we feel the need to fit a certain image.  I've learned from my own experience that we don't need to.  Embrace who you are!  Be who you want!  Love yourself just the way you are!  Never let anybody say you aren't beautiful.  I want everybody to leave a comment, send an email, or tweet me 3 things you love about yourself.  None of them can involve your looks.  Also if you are going through something and just need somebody to talk to I'm here for you.  I felt like I couldn't talk to anybody when I was going through my experience.  All my contact info is in the contact tab.  I hope to hear from all of you!  Here are my 3 things I love about myself.

1. I am a huge nerd for Captain America.  Actually just a nerd in general.

2. I have MANY obsessions.

3. I am a bookworm and I taught myself how to read when I was like 5 or 6

Have an awesome Monday!

Music Friday: Can't Remember To Forget You

TGIF!  I'm so glad it's almost the weekend.  You may have noticed I didn't post the last few Wednesday's.  That is because I'm trying to figure out what to post on that day.  Tell me what you'd like to see.  Today's share has been playing constantly in my head all week.  It is Can't Remember To Forget You by Shakira and Rihanna.  I'm not a fan of either of them but I can't stop listening!  The video is kinda weird but that doesn't matter.  Enjoy!

Motivational Monday: Dreams DO Come True!

Happy Monday!  If you haven't read last week's post then click here because today's is a continuation.  So last Monday I went to see Justin Timberlake.  It was the best concert EVER!  He was even sick and still performed incredibly!  I have dreamed of meeting him my whole life!  I've been a fan since I was 8 and now I'm almost 25.  Well Monday it came true!  I can't really go in to much details but I was totally surprised!  I had contacted the news about meeting him.  You can watch it here.  First I was upgraded to 2nd row!  Then it actually happened!  I met all his band and dancers and backup singers.  Everybody was SO nice!  When I found out I was meeting him I totally cried but pulled it together.  While waiting Jessica Biel walked by!  I was starstruck just by that.  Suddenly he was standing in front of me and I remember nothing.  I feel like I blacked out.  During the show he sang to me twice and gave me a shout out on stage!  It was just AMAZING!  Never give up on your dreams!  So now that I've accomplished this dream I must set another.  So now I want to be on The Ellen Show!  So I need all of you to help!  Tweet Ellen using #EllenmeetJerica.  No dream is too big!

Motivational Monday: Dreams

Happy Monday!  Today I want to talk about dreams.  Everybody has some kind of dream.  It could be to be famous, open a business, or even starting a blog.  Your dreams are important no matter what.  Nothing is unrealistic if you set your mind to it.  Today I'm see Justin Timberlake and hope to meet him.  I won't give up even if it doesn't happen this time.  Maybe it will next time.  So just keep dreaming and never let anybody tell you that you can't do something.

Jerica's Chatter: Full House Reunited?

Happy Wednesday!  It's time to talk about happened in pop culture this week.  I need a name for this series so leave suggestions.

Full House on Jimmy Fallon:

This week is Jimmy Fallon's last week on his show.  He'll be taking over The Tonight Show.  He did a hilarious skit with our favorite Full House members Danny, Joey, and Uncle Jesse.  The recreated the iconic scene where Michelle is afraid of sleeping in her big girl bed.  You must watch!

The Fault Of Our Stars:

OMG you guys this week the trailer for The Fault In Our Stars was released!!!  I honestly cried through the whole thing.  If you haven't read the book yet, what are you waiting for?  It is AMAZING!  Check out the trailer.

Seahawks Win!:

Sunday was the Super Bowl which featured the Denver Bronco's vs. the Seattle Seahawks.  I didn't really have a team but I was rooting for the Seahawks.  I thought it'd be a great game but it got boring pretty quickly.  The commercials were just average.  I didn't absolutely love any.  Bruno Mars rocked the halftime show along with the Red Hot Chili Peppers.  It was excellent.

RIP Philip Seymour Hoffman:

I couldn't decide if I wanted to include this but it's important to talk about.  On Sunday Philip Seymour Hoffman was found dead in his New York.  He died from a drug overdose.  He was only 46.  I wasn't a huge fan but I've seen a few movies.  It's just so heartbreaking to see young talented people dying because of drugs.  I know people can only change themselves but if you know somebody who is struggling just be there for them.

Movie Review: About Time

I just finished watching the film About Time and I knew I had to review it.  My mom and I really wanted to see it in theaters but we never made it.  I had very high hopes and it didn't let me down at all.  It's kind of a hard movie to explain so I'll put the trailer at the end.  The movie focus' on a guy named Tim who is played by Domhnall Gleeson.  Basically all the men in Tim's family can time travel.  There are certain rules but you'll have to watch to see what they are.  He is a bit awkward and just wants to find love.  Then he randomly meets Mary who is played by Rachel McAdams.  That's all I can share!  It's based in London which I loved because I'm obsessed with London.  I loved how it was filmed like an indie film.  It was all very natural feeling.  I laughed and I cried.  I'm putting this in my top 10 favorite movies for sure.  I only wish it was a book.  Tell me your thoughts if you've seen it.  If you haven't then you must!

Motivational Monday: Who Inspires You?

Happy Monday!  Today I want to get to know you guys better.  So today's question is who inspires you?  It can be somebody close to you or somebody famous.  Anybody you want.  For me it's my mom.  She was a single mom most of my life.  She took care of me and my two sisters and worked full time.  We didn't have much money but we never felt left out of anything.  My celebrity inspiration is Taylor Swift.  She writes things that happen to us girls.  She is always honest and I love that.  Let me know yours in the comments.
