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.

Midnight Memories!

It's finally here!  If you are a big One Direction fan like me then you've probably been waiting for their new video to primere.  Today the new video for Midnight Memories came out!  Every video they do just gets better and better.  Ben Winston directed it and I love when he films their videos.  He always captures who they actually are.  This time was no different.  I loved every second!  I had seen pictures all over Tumblr so I kinda knew what the theme was.  It fit them perfectly!  All I can say is if One Direction were at my house party I'd be in heaven!  It was funny and crazy just like them.  I've probably watched it 50 times already!  What are your thought?

Music Friday: Mmm Yeah

Happy Friday!  I'm so glad this week is over because it has been super busy.  This semester is killing me already.  Today's share is my newest obsession.  It is Mmm Yeah by Austin Mahone feat. Pitbull.  I'm totally obsessed with Austin Mahone which may be weird since I'm 24.  I just love his style and dancing and pretty much everything.  Also who are you rooting for in the Super Bowl?  I'm going for Seahawks.  Enjoy!

Jerica's Chatter: Aaron Carter Is Back?

It's Wednesday which means it time to review all the pop culture news that happened.  If you want to see any stories then tell me in the comments.  Let's get into it!

Justin Bieber Got Arrested:

This was probably the most talked about story.  Is anybody really shocked?  Justin Bieber was arrested for drag racing, DUI, and drugs.  Now I've been a fan since the beginning but honestly I'm disappointed.  He is just going to ruin his life and career.  Also his dad was there blocking traffic while he was drag racing.  His parents need to step up and be actual parents.  It's reported that an intervention is happening in Panama.  We'll see what happens.

Aaron Carter Has A New Single:

If you grew up during the 90's then your inner childhood is probably freaking out right now.  I know I am!  Over the weekend Aaron Carter released his single for FREE on Twitter.  Surprisingly it is really good.  The single is called That's Life.  You can listen by clicking here.  What are your thoughts?

Lance Bass Makes A Music Video:

Apparently Lance Bass thought it was a good idea to release his own music video.  I'm a huge NSYNC fan but this was not good.  There was awkward dancing and it was set in the desert and just weird.  The song has potential at least.  Sorry Lance but you'll never be Justin Timberlake.  Do you think it's a hit or miss?

The Grammy's:

Of course I must talk about The Grammys.  I thought Taylor Swift looked AMAZING and her performance was flawless.  Katy Perry performed Dark Horse and it was perfection.  Everyone loved Beyonce but I wasn't that impressed.  Macklemore and Ryan Lewis had a bunch of couples get married during their performance which was touching. Lorde won a lot which honestly surprised me.  Daft Punk dominated everything which I disagree with.  I thought Katy Perry and Miley Cyrus were snubbed.  They had awesome albums.  What did you love or hate?

Music Friday: Chocolate

Music Friday is back!!  Sorry I've been very busy with school.  Today's share is a current obsession I've been having.  It is Chocolate by The 1975.  I love their music.  It has such a different vibe than any other artist out right now.  I think they'll be huge this year.  Enjoy!
