Book reviewwwww.


Chew on This. 10/10
I loved this book. It gave me a lot of knowledge on what is in Fast Food and how bad it is.... well actually I already knew how bad it was for you, but it really put a bigger picture in my mind of how bad it was. It did get a bit gory at moments, but nothing too bad. A MUST READ!!! If this can't get people to stop eating Fast Food nothing can.

Wicked.

I saw that play the other night. It was amazing! If you have the chance to see it, you should. It plays in New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Chicago. Now, if you can't see the musical, buy the soundtrack as it is amazing. My favorite songs from the soundtrack are "Popular" and "Defying Gravity." In case you don't know what it's about, it's the prequel to the Wizard of Oz. They're making Wicked into a movie too! YAY! Haha. Well I g2g! Byee!

Can vegetarians eat animal crackers?

My friend has that as her available on aim. I thought that it was pretty cute. :)
If you have an iPhone or an iTouch, here are some cool apps that you might consider putting on your it. (Click on the name of each to app to download of off iTunes).

Free
Pandora Radio.
You might remeber in a previous post, me putting a link up to it. It's awesome and they have it as an app for the iphone/touch. It only works with the touch if you have an internet connection, but with the iphone, it works anywhere that you recieve a cell phone signal. It's like your own personal radio. You put your favorite artist in and it "creates" a radio station just for you.

Shazam.
This app only works with the iphone, but it is still awesome. :] If you're listening to a song on the radio or in a store and can't figure it out what it is, all you do is hold up your phone and it will tell you what it is.

Flashlight.
Basically what the title says it is. It has a bunch of different colors and other stuff, like a strobe setting. :] Great for if the power goes out.

Tell us what you think of those.

P.S. Sorry for not posting. I been very busy. :[

The City of Ember.

I saw "City Of Ember" with Saorise Ronan, Bill Murray, and Harry Treadaway the other night. It was actually really well done. The book is one of my favorite books, so I wasn't expecting much out of the movie. A couple of things were changed obviously, but it was still really fun to watch. I will give 5/5 stars. The actors that were in it were all such good actors. Saorise Ronan was awesome. :] If you get the chance you should definately see the movie. You should read the book as well. I'll give the book 5/5 stars too. :] Here's a synopsis for the movie.

"For generations, the people of the City of Ember have flourished in an amazing world of glittering lights. But Ember's once powerful generator is failing ... and the great lamps that illuminate the city are starting to flicker. Now, two teenagers in a race against time, must search Ember for clues that will unlock the ancient mystery of the city's existence, and help the citizens escape before the lights go out forever."

Outfit coming tomorrow!

Hey!

I felt like doing a post on country music. I ADORE country music. :] Now, I know that a bunch of you hate it, but I really think that if you don't like it you should give it a second chance. If you do like/love country music then this is the perfect post for you. :]

Good stuff now! I won't be putting Carrie Underwood or Taylor Swift on here because I'm SURE that all of you know who they are and have heard their music.

Kristy Lee Cook
Yes, she was that girl on American Idol. Her second cd has just come out and it's really good. Her voice goes great with her songs. The album is called "Why Wait" btw haha. I will be giving her album a 10/10.
My faves:
15 Minutes of Shame
Why Wait
I Think Too Much
Hoping to Find

Carter's Chord
I had not heard of this group until iTunes put one of their songs up as the free song of the week. I'm soo glad that they did though. :] I will give this album a 8/10. Some of the songs are a bit slow for me hahaha.
My faves:
Boys Like You
Different Breed
Dear Baltimore
Summer Early 60's

Shania Twain
This album is sooo old. I wish that she would come out with a new one. I'll give it a 7/10 because I only like some of the songs. This is called "Up." If you went to the Jonas Brothers summer tour you might remember them singing "I'm Gonna Getcha Good!" ;]
My faves:
I'm Gonna Getcha Good!
Up!
She's Not Just a Pretty Face
Jaunita
Waiter! Bring Me Some Water!

Now, all of you need to look those people up. :]

That's all for now! TTYL! XOXOXO!

Eagle Eye.

A review.
I saw the movie and I enjoyed it quite a bit. The problem with it though is that I thought that it was very predictable. If you seen THIS (spoiler) movie, you will be kind of bored at the end. You might just be bored for idkkk. Lol. Anyway, I'll give it 4/5 stars. I would recommend seeing it. :] I'm to lazy to do a synopsis, so here's what someone else wrote lol.


"Jerry and Rachel are two strangers thrown together by a mysterious phone call from a woman they have never met. Threatening their lives and family, she pushes Jerry and Rachel into a series of increasingly dangerous situations, using the technology of everyday life to track and control their every move."

Crayons.

We have never done a post on them...here are some pretty awesome pictures that we found! :]



Now, here's a fun crayon craft project.
What You Need:
Broken crayons
An old muffin tin
A knife

1. Gather up all of your broken crayons, and cut them into small pieces.
2. Preheat the oven to 150 degrees.
3. Fill the muffin tin with an inch-thick layer of crayon pieces.
4. Bake 15-20 minutes, or until the wax is melted.
5. Allow the tin to cool; then pop out the crayons, and they're ready for use.

Tips:
If you don't have a muffin tin to devote to crayon making, you can line your regular muffin tin
with foil cups.
Candy and soap making molds can also be used to create fun, shaped crayons.
Recycled crayons make a great no-cost gift or party favor.

Have fun!
