♥December Favorites♥

Hey everybody!  It's that time again.  Can you believe tomorrow is 2014?  This year just went by so quickly.  It was a great one though.  Hopefully the new year is just as awesome.  Check back tomorrow for a review of pop culture events that happened in 2013.  Tell me in the comments your favorites.

Music:

My first song is Best Day Of My Life by American Authors.  I'm obsessed with this song!  The first time I heard it I felt so happy.  It's very upbeat and catchy.  If I'm feeling sad I just play this.  I've never heard of them before this so they must be pretty new.

My next song is Burn by Ellie Goulding.  I first heard this song on The Voice and loved it.  I've always loved her music because her voice is so unique.  I also like how she's slightly techno.  This song is very catchy too.  I never get tired of it.

My last song is Timber by Pitbull and Ke$ha.  This song is always in my head!  I love Ke$ha so I knew I'd like it.  Plus Pitbull usually has really good songs.  It should've been out during summer though instead of now.

TV Show:

I love the show The Sing Off!  I've watched every season and was so sad when it got canceled.  They brought it back though.  It's a show all about acapella groups.  There is no band or live instruments just their voices.  The season is already over but hopefully it will be back on soon.

Movie:

I loved the movie The Book Thief.  I read the book so I tried not to set my exceptions to high.  It was very good though.  It's set during World War II so it's very emotional.  The film really portrayed that and you really felt what they were feeling.  I recommend both the book and movie.  Both were similar but different.

Food:

I can't stop eating Ghirardelli chocolate.  This holiday season they had a limited edition one called Peppermint Bark.  It is so good!  It has white chocolate and milk chocolate together plus little pieces of peppermint candy.  I even got my grandma addicted.

Random:

Last month was 1D Day and it was amazing.  This is by far the best video on the internet.  All I have to say about this is enjoy!

Scent:

I finally got it!  My favorite Christmas gift was Our Moment perfume by One Direction.  It smells so amazing!  Even my younger sister likes it.  It's a more fruity smell than floral which I like.  I think the design is cute too.  It fits my collection well.

YouTube:

Every year YouTube makes a rewind video featuring our favorite YouTubers and most of the years viral videos.  This years didn't disappoint.  I've watched it multiple times.  It's such a creative idea.  Good job YouTube!

Trend:

I've been loving over sized cardigans.  They are just so comfortable and warm.  It's been a super cold winter here so it comes in handy.  I just love how cozy and soft they are.  There are so many prints and styles too.  They are just perfect.

Quote:

I really love this quote.  It really sets the tone for the new year.  I like being different.  Who cares if people look at you weird.  Being the same is boring.  Be whoever and whatever you want.

Moment:

I think my favorite moment was Christmas with my family.  I enjoyed just being lazy and watching my nieces play.  Even though I had a cold it was still fun.

Music Friday Christmas Edition: Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)

Christmas is only days away!  I'm so excited and ready for it.  Sadly this is the last Christmas song I'm posting this year.  Don't worry it's a good one.  It's one of my newest favorites.  It is Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) by Michael Buble.  I'm loving all his songs lately.  He just sounds amazing.  This song is also super catchy.  Have an awesome Christmas!

Music Friday Christmas Edition: Christmas Love

Can you guys believe Christmas is only 2 weeks away?  I'm getting super excited.  Today's share is one of my favorites.  It is Christmas Love by Justin Bieber.  I just love this song.  I listen to it all year because it's just a really cute song.  I hope you all enjoy it too!

Music Friday Christmas Edition: Little Drummer Boy

Happy Friday!  Can you believe it's almost Christmas?  I'm SO excited this year!  Today's share is by one of my favorite groups.  It is Little Drummer Boy by Pentatonix.  I've loved them for awhile now.  They are a totally acapella group.  This means no instruments are used, they just their voices.  The did an AMAZING job on this song.  You can also buy their Christmas album on iTunes now.  It's very good.  Tell your favorite Christmas songs too!

♥November Favorites♥

Happy November you guys!  Can you guys believe Christmas is less than a month away?  I am super excited about the holidays this year.  If you have any blog requests let me know.  I hope you all had an amazing Thanksgiving!  Enjoy my favorites and share yours below.

Music:

My first song is I wish by Cher Llyod.  I'm kinda obsessed with her.  I just always love her music.  It's always just so different and original.  This song is about a guy you like but you aren't their type.  I really just love it.

My second song is Move by Little Mix.  I can't stop playing this song!  It is so catchy and is always in my head.  I love the video too.  It reminds me a lot of the 90's.  I can't wait until the album comes out!

My last song is Half A Heart by One Direction.  I couldn't not mention a song from their new album.  I'm obsessed with this song!  It is my favorite from the album.  I did a review on this blog if you want to check it out!

TV Show:

I've started watching the new PLL spin off called Ravenswood and now I can't stop.  It is totally different from anything I usually watch.  It is very creepy and freaks me out.  It's about a town with a curse and 5 teens are trying to solve it.  ABC Family always has the best shows.

Movie:

This is probably no surprise.  I loved The Hunger Games: Catching Fire!!!!!!  I read all the books so I knew what would happen.  Seeing it on screen was just AMAZING!  The costumes were just beautiful too.  I recommend reading the books first though.  The movie did leave out some pretty big plot lines.  It was still VERY good!

Food:

I can't stop eating pretzels this month.  I just think it is the best snack.  They are very filling and also healthier option than chips.  I'm not a health nut but since it's holiday time I'm cutting back.  Instead of eating candy all day just choose these.

Random:

My friend gave me a pad of paper that has the game Hangman on it.  I forgot how fun it was!  I'm horrible at it though.  I can never guess the word.  I've been practicing though.  It really makes your mind think which I like.

Scent:

I've recently discovered another scent I wore all the time.  It is Fancy by Jessica Simpson.  I'm pretty sure this is one of her first perfumes.  I just love how good it smells.  It also works really well for a day or night.  It has a sweet musky smell.

YouTuber:

I'm in with Michael Buckley on YouTube!  He is SUPER funny and loves pop culture as much as I do.  I'm subscribed to both of his channels.  On his main channel he does recaps of big pop culture news and he also does reviews.  Go check him out!

Quote:

I really love this quote.  It's important to have big dreams.  Never let anybody tell you that your dreams aren't reachable.  If you put your mind to it you do anything.  Even if you don't achieve them it's still nice to dream.  So just keep dreaming!

Moment:

I had a lot of great moments this month.  My favorite was taking my sister to her first concert.  We went to see Hunter Hayes.  It was so much fun!  She's starting college soon so it's nice to just hang out.
