New Movies of 2013

Nothing says a new year like new movies!! With 2013 right around the corner a slew of new movies are awaiting!!!

1/4/13- TEXAS CHAINSAW 3D 
I'm sure yall know i LOVE scary movies!!!! The Texas Chainsaw series is no exception! From the previews it seems as though this film is a tad bit different from the previous films. Rather than an actual remake a group of kids go in search of one girl's grandmothers old stomping grounds yet they have no idea what they are getting themselves into! As an added bonus- Trey Songz is in the film as well =)

1/18/13 - BROKEN CITY
Who doesn't love Mark Wahlberg? *crickets* ..... EXACTLY! lol This man can do no wrong when it comes to acting [except for maybe The Other Guys.... ] I've been a fan of Mark's movies for a loooooong time now and in most cases he doesn't disappoint!


2/8/13 - SIDE EFFECTS
i actually just saw this trailer while I was searching for the Texas Chainsaw trailer. It seems very interesting! And Channing Tatum is in it! He's been doing A LOT of movies lately! His career is surely on the up and up. I've been a fan of Channing since Step Up so I'm excited for all of his new work and this film looks promising! Be sure to check it out ladies!


Are you ladies excited about any other new movie releases next year?

Checking In

Hello ladies! How are you all doing?? Just wanted to quickly drop in and let you all know I'm recovering fine from my eye surgery. I'm slowly regaining sight in my eye and can't wait to get back t work! Not that I totally mind sitting at home watching Investigation Discovery all day... but I still can't see clearly lol. So I mainly listen to TV. Can't wait my glasses because my left eye got stronger so the prescription isn't accurate and basically the inconsistency makes my head hurt- no bueno!

All in all I'm blessed and thankful to God for that! Hope you ladies have an awesome rest of your week!! =)

Short Hiatus Due To Surgery

Hello ladies!

First off I want to thanlk all of you that entered the giveaway!! I will be choocing a winner soon I have not forgotten. However the purpose of this post is to let you ladies know I will not be posting for roughly 2 weeks because I need to have eye surgery and the one working eye I have isn't too stong and I don't want to strain it trying to blog (not tat I dont love to blog... you ladies get what I mean).

I'm having surgury becase the retina in my right eye detached (its not painful) and right now I can not see anything thru my right eye :( the worsrt part about that is my right eye was my stronger eye of the two. No I'm not completely blind buttt I'm close to it. I was completely freaked out when the eye doc told me mainly because the same thind happened with my left eye as a baby due to me being a prematre birth.

All in all I'm calm now. I know God will fix the issue and restore my vision. So with that being said I will talk with u ladies some time after my surgury. Also be expecting a blog sale soon (the surgery bill can't pay itself lol)

And as promised once I regain full vision I will ebe choosing a winner for the giveaway!

** please disregard all spelling errors; blogger won't let me spell check.

ENJOY THE REST OF YOUR WEEK

10 Day You Challenge - 2 Songs

We're getting close to the end of the 10-Day You Challenge. This week's topic is 2 Songs. I'm not even sure if I can single out merely 2 songs and label them as my all time favorites. On any given occasion you can find me with my earplugs in and my ipod on! I never leave home without it!

BlogLoveTherapy
 

 
 
1) Do Ya Thing - Rihanna -- this song always makes me want to start dancing
regardless of were I'm at



2) No Air - Jordin Sparks ft/ Chris Brown -- by far one of my favorite duets EVER!!!
Whenever I start to hear this song I start belting out the words! I love it that much!
 


Any Trey Songz Fans Out There??



Not sure if you ladies know this or not buuttt I absolutely adore Trey Songz! Been a fan of his since wayyyyy back in 2005! So back in August or September Trey put out a new album [Chapter V] and as a result he's been touring for the last month. His show tonight, stops in Los Angeles and to help his Angels With Heart Foundation Xumanii.com is going to broadcast the concert live online for everyone to see(for only $1.99)! I'm super excited about this because his tour doesn't make a stop in Seattle so now I'll have a chance to check it out. BUT the point of this post is to inform you ladies of the concert and the good cause the money is going towards.

Angels with Heart foundation is a foundation within Trey's fan club "Trey's Angels". The purpose is to encourage his fans/Angels and others to give back to those in need because there is always someone is a worse off situation than yourself. So if you're a fan of his music or just want to help out towards a good cause, purchase a ticket for only $2! Besides how often can you see a full concert for only TWO DOLLARS??!! Don't miss out!

The End of the Twilight Era

The end is near... the end of Twilight that is. Tonight/tomorrow the final installment of the Twilight films hits theaters! I'm excited and saddened at the same time. I became a fan wayyy back in 2009; I've seen all 4 movies thus far and read all 4 books. I hate to see it end, but I've been hearing the last film has scene that don't correlate to the book which should be exciting to see! Below I've posted the trailers for the first 4 films for the few of you who may be clueless to the epic-ness that is Twilight! =)


TWILIGHT

Hind sight is always 20/20. When I first saw this film it was on dvd and I thought it was hilarious. Now, I still think its hilarious but I feel the acting is sooo cheesy!

NEW MOON

this was my favorite book in the series; possibly because I'm Team Jacob... but it really was a good book. It introduced a whole new group of 'mythical creatures'. After reading the first book I was already rooting for Jake, so to find out he turns into damn wolf; how could I not love the wolf pack?

ECLIPSE

this was probably my 2nd book. I love how the movies put Jake vs Edward, I love the tent and the fight training scenes.

BREAKING DAWN - PART 1

The only thing I have to say about the book itself is this: That mess was LONG as hell! I literally hated reading it..... ahhhhhhh ahhhhhhh... I purposely spent 2 weeks on that book alone cause it started to annoy me. But I will admit [bias wolf fan comment approaching] I liked "Book 2" ;) If you've read the BD you totally know what I mean. If you didn't read the book.. basically Breaking Dawn (book) is broken into 3 sections: Book 1, Book 2, and Book 3. Books 1 & 3 and from Bella's POV but Book 2 is all from Jacob's POV! I'm seriously hoping that they add some of Jake's perspective into BD2... I might be slightly will be disappointed if at some point during BD2 the scenes aren't begin narrated by Jake! It's only fair people!

BREAKING DAWN - PART 2

I'm sad to see the end of the series BUT I'm super excited to see how to bring it to an end! I have VERY high expectations for this film!

10 Day You Challenge - 3 Movies

As you ladies know I've been doing the 10 Day You Challenge for the last few weeks. This weeks challenge is 3 movies. If you know me, then you know I LOVE movies! Below are 3 of the many movies that I absolutely adore!!!

BlogLoveTherapy



1. Saw series - I love horror movies and this series! I have all 7 films on dvd. Put all the guts gore aside, the message of the movies is a good one. Cherish the life you are given, don't take it for granted.


2. Princess & The Frog- When this movie came out on dvd my mom and I watched it together and loved it. Ultimately I convinced my sister-in-law to get it for my-then- 2 year old niece. Now at 4, my niece LOVEEEES it still!


apparently I make this same faceat people unknowingly... *shrug*


3. The Hangover - can we say HILARIOUS??? Just thinking about it makes me want to burst out laughing! lol

So There's This New Link-up....

 
 
 
As usual, I was scouring the web and came across a new blog and thus a new link-up. Dalayna at Pointing Up has started a link-up for those of us who are not married and don't have children. By no means is this at bash at the wonderful bloggers who are married and/or have children- we love y'all!!
 
One cool thing about this link up is each week you connect with other via different social networks [GFC, Twitter, Facebook, etc] Sooo check it out =)

10 Day You Challenge - 4 Books

BlogLoveTherapy
So this weeks challenge is about 4 books. I decided to list 4 books that I started to read but never finished. That is a HUGE problem for me. I'll start reading a book, get halfway through it just to stop reading due to lack of interest or some form of distraction. I REALLY need to work on that! So with that being said, the books below are books that I have started reading and one day hope to finish. =)

1. The Help by Christine Hassler
2. 50 shades of Grey[+ books 2 and 3] by E.L. James
3. 20 Something, 20 Everything by Christine Hassler
4. If I Stay by Gayle Forman




* Initially I was going to list 4 books that I really enjoyed but the only thing that popped into my head was the Twilight series... and I figured I'd spare you all that as I will be posting about the final movie installment of the movie in the upcoming days =) You can thank me later lol

Did You Vote??

I voted!!!!!

In Washington State they send out ballots about 2-3 weeks before Election. However, because I procrastinate like crazy I didn't turn my ballot in until 4pm Tuesday.... But no judging! I voted and that's what matter right??

The election was pretty close! I was watching the results all night and every 10 minutes a different candidate was in the lead. But at the (almost?) end of it all Barack Obama was announced as the President Re-Elect! Congrats to Mr Obama! My hope is that these next 4 years are beyond successful for him! =)

Where Has The Year Gone?

Is it just me or has this year flown by way too fast?? Its already November!!

- Election Day is Tuesday,

- The final Twilight movie is released in 11 days,

- Thanksgiving is in 17 days

- Christmas & New Years Eve will both be here before we know it!


So far I am loving the Fall weather in Seattle. I LOVE the colorful leaves in the tress and the many distinctive signs of Fall that are all over the place. I've never been a big fan of the Fall season. It never felt like much of a Fall in Los Angeles or Texas. But with all the trees here in Seattle + the rain; its the perfect combination needed to create a beautiful fall atmosphere.
I absolutely LOVE how the trees here change...
simply beautiful

10 Day You Challenge - 6 Places

The Challenge for this week is 6 Places. I've decided to post about 3 places I've visited or lived and 3 places I would love to see one day. Be sure to join in on  the link-up as there are only a few weeks left!
BlogLoveTherapy


PLACES I'VE LIVED
1. Los Angeles, CA - born and raised for only half my life... big city life with so much to offer. I love LA and miss it! Def need to plan a visit.
2. Seattle, WA -- I've only been here 3 months and thus far I'm in love! I'm still getting used to the weather; its already in the 50s and 40s and I not too fond of that.
3. Little Rock, AR -- lived there when I was all of 2 years old. I'd love to visit one day because I remember NONE of it =/

PLACE I'D LIKE TO VISIT
4. New York, NY - My biggest dream is to visit the big apple! I love big city atmosphere and I don't think it gets any bigger than New York
5. Miami, FL -- When I think of Miami I think of the ultimate beach city. I definitely need to go!
6. Canada -- Since I'm in Seattle now, Canada is literally a hop, skip and jump away sooo why not take a trip across the boarder, right??

Guess Who's Off The Market?

Last week sometime I was on Twitter and noticed that TMZ posted a story about Justin Timberlake having a secret wedding and supposedly not inviting the *Nsync guys.... literally all I say was "*Nsync" and "wedding" and rushed to click the link... don't judge! lol Now being the fact that I was OBSESSED with boy bands in the 90s I hurried to read their little story. Now because I have been super busy the last 2 weeks at work pulling in some full time hours, I didn't know what the heck was going on! Surely I would have known about some wedding pertaining to JT.... [I like to keeps tabs on him, again don't judge lol]
 

 
 
Earlier this week I noticed a few entertainment pages, like TMZ and E! posting stories about the supposed wedding.... Someone even snagged a picture w/ Justin wearing his ring. So I'm guessing the wedding in legit! I'm happy for the two of them. Jessica is gorgeous and Justin is, well, he's JT is an explanation really necessary?? ;) Hopefully now we can get some new music out of the married man.... its been 6 years since FutureSex/LoveSounds ... that's 5 years too long without new tunes....

I'm No Coffee Person

By no means am I a coffee kinda girl. I simply don't drink the stuff. Which is funny to me since I now live in "Starbucks City".... However, the other day my roommate had an extra coupon for a FREE Starbucks drink, any size. So of course I took it! haha I actually wanted to try to Pumpkin Spice Latte cause I've seen sooooo many bloggers write about it, I wanted to see what the fuss was about.




AND THE VERDICT IS.......


it was just okay... after a few sips I was kinda grosses out. But again I'm not much of a coffee drinker. So I shall stick to the Passion Tea Lemonade and muffins that I love ever so dearly!

10 Day You Challenge - 8 Fears

BlogLoveTherapy
Continuing on with the 10 Day You Challenge, today's post will be about my 8 fears.. If you're checking out my blog for the first time you can read my 9 Loves and 10 Secrets as well. Also be sure to head over to Blog Love Therapy to join in on the link-up.


1. Cockroaches! - Living in Texas I saw my fair share of this disgusting little critters and they freak me the fuck out! There's just no way around it! *cringe*
2. Not falling in love -- I'm dated a hand full of guys I my time... None of which I loved. All were very short lived; either the guy cheated or the relationship wasn't what I wanted/needed. Either way they all ended within months. ,
3. Becoming "over weight" again. After loosing 40 pounds last year and then gaining 10, I sometimes worry that I'll fall back into my old eating habits and continue to gain weight. Which will ultimately effect my health for the worst
4. Being stuck in a dead-end job. You know the jobs that only pay minimum wage and you are never able to move up in?? Now I'm not complaining about the job I currently have. I hope to either move up to a higher position or get a job with another company that I can turn into a career.
5. Failing. Throughout my college years I sometimes got so overwhelmed that I would freak out and start thinking I was a failure because of small setbacks. Basically I don't want to leave this world and the people I know think I failed at something
6. Heights - I can ride in an airplane no problem, Sit in a train car as it elevates above the ground..... But roller coasters, bundee jumping. hot air balloons? HECK NO! Can't do it! I freak out tooo bad
7. Talking in front of a large crowd - I've given more group project/individual presentations since middle school yet it still rattles my darn nerves!!! I get butterflies and think everyone is going to laugh at me. God forbid if I start stuttering.... it'll be a wrap
8.Not having children - this one kinda connects with #2. Granted a serious relationship is necessary to produce a baby however, that how I'd like my story to play out... fall in love, get married, have a baby. I'm just old school like that.

How Pinteresting..... Pretty in Pink

So its hump day and you all know what that means right??? Yep a Pinterest fiesta/link-up is upon us once again. My theme last week was very random so this time around I figured a pink theme was in order! Nothing like a bright pink anything to get me through a Wednesday! Be sure to check out Michelle's page The Vintage Apple, as the link-up is her creation and join in on the fun =) Have a good day.








I've always secretly wanted pink streaks in my hair...
I should probably do something about it before I hit 30.



This is mainly the only drink I get from Starbucks... LOVE it!

{ Astrology }

How many of you actually follow Astrology/Horoscopes?? I've always been a fan of reading my horoscope in magazines but never felt there was much truth behind them.

Last night Monday my roommate was reading a Astrology website that listed various personality traits- many of which were sooo true about me! The older I've gotten and the more I actually read in depth about astrology the more I begin to think there's plenty of truth behind what some horoscopes.













Do any of you ladies feel your Zodiac sign fits you? Or are you the complete opposite of your sign??

Blog Hop {The May Issue}

In case you're not familiar with Karen at The May Issue, she's a beauty blogger. Currently she's hosting a weekly blog-hop. So check out her site, it has tons of useful beauty tips and joining the Blog hop =)

Ink Work

I'm a fan of tattoos. I currently have 4 and at least 4 more that I eventually want to get and yet another list of others I might want. Crazy huh??

I got my very first tattoo at 19. I remember my cousin and I drove all around Los Angeles finding a tattoo shop that was reasonably prices. I didn't know much about the process judging tat shops or anything. I just knew I didn't want to spend  fortune! Silly little me... I remember when I went home and told my mom I wanted to get one she was all like "whatever, its your body" The next day however when I came home with a tattoo on my shoulder she was angry! She was always like that with me and my brother, wanted us to make our own decision yet still voice her disapproval if we did certain things anyway. So the first tattoo I got was a small butterfly on the back of my shoulder, cliche I know but I was 19!


My 2nd tattoo I got when I was 21, it was father's day weekend I think. Me and my bff went so she could get her 1st tattoo. Initially I didn't want to get anything but after sitting in the shop for 30mins I decided to get a red rose w/ my beautiful Sorority { ΛΣΓ } letters on a scroll




Tattoo #3 came when I was 22. I was in Texas that summer visiting my pregnant sister-in-law I initially went to the tattoo shop because my niece that was 17 at the time wanted to get a tattoo and I was going to sign the consent forms for her. Since that was kinda against the shop's rules she couldn't get anything done. So since we were already there I decided to get a "spur-of-the-moment" tattoo. Nothing fancy and no in depth meaning behind it, but none the less its cute!

before
during- it was on my hip bone and it hurt!

after- this is the only picture I could find. Sorry that it looks blurry.


Tattoo #4 came just a few short months ago. I decided to get the Breast Cancer ribbon on the front side of my shoulder. Its not as bright as I would have liked but I love it none the less. You may remember I posted my Breast Cancer Awareness story last week {here} so check that out if you haven;t read it yet.

 
 

Even though I have 4 tattoos, I plan on getting more. Three or four that I know for sure what they will  be but only 200% positive on two of those four. [ a RIP tattoo for my mommy and a more spiritual tat on my foot.

So do any of you ladies have tattoos? What are your thoughts of them?
