Hey guys! It's finally 2017, and that means a fresh start. In Hollywood, it also means new announcements for the upcoming year! New projects, new music and new movies! Last year I didn't go see a majority of the movies that I wanted to because I've been focusing on getting ready for college. But this year my New Year's resolution is to make a list of all the films I want to see and watch them all! I could set a goal for something more beneficial, such as eating healthier, but I'm going to need popcorn and candy to go with the movies so it looks like that's a no go. Hopefully ya'll love movies as much as I do because I'm about to dive right into it!



I'm so excited for this because I have always loved Pirates of the Caribbean! In this one, Captain Salazar and his ghost pirate crew escape the Devil's Triangle and set out on a mission to kill every pirate at sea, including none other than Jack Sparrow. In order to save himself and everyone else, Jack must find the Trident of Poseidon which will give him total control of the sea. Hopefully the fifth movie will turn out more successful than the fourth. I think a big reason why it did so poorly is because of the absence of Keira Knightley and Orlando Bloom. Both made the decision that, while they loved the movies, they needed to move on and experience other things. However, Orlando has confirmed his return to this one and that makes me so happy! I hope you're ready for this movie because it's coming out May 26!



I don't know if I'm ready for this because the first movie was honestly terrifying. In the sequel, a doll maker and his wife welcome a nun and several girls from an orphanage to stay in their house after the death of their little girl. Although the gesture implies a happy tone, the guests soon become the target of the doll maker's possessed creation, Annabelle. I tried watching the trailer and I couldn't even finish it (probably because I was watching it alone at night) but I think it'll be a fun movie to watch with my friends. It comes out August 11, so it should be a great film for a summer night.



Yes, you read it right. They're making a movie out of the series, Captain Underpants! The books were so entertaining and I cannot wait for the movie. The plot is the same as the books, where two kids accidentally turn their mean principal into their original comic book superhero Captain Underpants. Kevin Hart will be in it so you know it's going to be very...interesting. It's set to come out June 2 so you might want to prepare for it by re-reading the whole Captain Underpants series!







I cannot express to ya'll how excited I am for this movie! I am obsessed with this series and if I was only able to watch one out of all the movies I've discussed, it would be this one. I've watched the other two movies in this series multiple times and this new one makes me as excited as the other ones did. In this movie Caesar and his apes are forced to fight to protect their kind from the humans, ultimately determining the fate of both their species and the planet. It's coming out July 14th and I can hardly wait!

There are many more movies expected for the year 2017, but these are the ones I am most excited about. Hopefully you guys are ready for this year because I feel a lot of releases coming on!

Hey guys! I know we have all heard that Taylor Swift may be coming out with a new album soon, but did you ever think that it could be a country one?


At the Country Music Awards Wednesday night, Taylor presented the Entertainer of The Year. In her opening speech, she talked about how important country music was to her and reflected on how far she has come as an artist since she first began writing songs in Nashville. She seemed really passionate as she discussed how honored she was to be there presenting these amazing country artists with their awards.

Although she has been "gone" for three years, Taylor never really left because it seems like she is always involved in the latest celebrity gossip. She has also been in the news lately for music reasons.

First of all, she wrote a song for a country group, Little Big Town, called Better Man. Not only does this bring massive exposure to this band but it also reveals that Taylor has not strayed too far from her country roots.

Also, the fact that she was even asked to present awards at the CMAs seems to tell us that Taylor isn't giving up on her country styled music. Maybe her new album is late because she's trying to incorporate country music into her new pop sound!


I have to admit, I do miss her old music. Don't get me wrong, her new album was incredible. But her original album has many songs that I still listen to today at times. It was so pure and unique. You could tell that it showed us her true self before Hollywood began to influence her. Like I said, there's nothing wrong with her music style now. It's just so different from when she first started out.

If you think Taylor Swift doesn't have anymore surprises up her sleeve, you can try again!

Do you think Taylor is finished with country music forever, or will she go back to her roots? Let me know in the comments below!

Hey guys! I just wanted to talk about things I've been observing about teenagers these days. Some of us depend on our parents too much! I know when your're younger you rely heavily on them, but as you grow older things should start to change.

Learning to be independent is very important because there will be times in your life when you need to get through a difficult situation on your own. Of course it's okay to ask your parents for advice along the way. They have experienced many of the things that you are going through or will in the future, and it can be beneficial to have multiple points of view on a decision you must make.


 But there are also times when asking your parents what to do becomes excessive and can hinder you from being self-reliant. For example, job interviews. I know this sounds ridiculous, but I have heard about job interviews where the teen brings their guardian with them into the room. If I were the employer, they would be sent out so fast. First of all, if you're old enough to have a job I think you are capable of speaking for yourself. And second, it's not like your parent can come to work with you everyday and help you out! I mean, what's next? Having your mom go on every date with you so she can help you pick the right person? Even though I hate working, I love the feeling of making my own money and having some adult responsibilities. If you don't get into this mindset now, it will become more difficult later when you're forced to.


Another area where parents shouldn't get involved is dealing with a difficult teacher. It is tempting to just get your parent to send an angry email to the principal and get transferred out of the class, but it's not necessary for them to get involved. If your teacher is rude or doesn't know how to teach, either suck it up or deal with it yourself. In college you won't be able to ask your mommy to get a schedule change, and there will always be people in your life that you don't like but have to put up with anyway.

In order for us to grow, we need to make our own mistakes and think for ourselves. I'm definitely guilty of relying on my parents too much because I don't like change and I just feel uncomfortable doing certain things on my own. However, I do try to push myself to become more independent and because of this, some of those insecurities have gone away. I know we don't want to let go of our parents because they've always been there to help us, but they can still be a big part of our lives without letting them control it.

And if you think your parents are going to do all the thinking for you for the rest of your life, you can try again!

Hey guys! It's been a while since any big albums have come out, so I wanted to discuss some that are expected to be released in the near future.


 The first one is Taylor Swift's. Her album was expected to have come out in October of 2016 but considering that October will be over in less than a week, I doubt that will happen. Ever since her first album, she has always released a new one every other October but I guess this was her year to play games with us! Apparently she didn't promote this album because she thought it would be a top seller regardless. She's trying to pull a Beyonce! Only Beyonce can do a Beyonce! I mean, her album probably would've sold a ton of copies anyway, but I feel like she's being sneaky. If she doesn't promote it, then no one can hold it against her if the album wasn't finished on time because she never promised anything.

I'm kind of scared for her to release a new album, though. Only because her last one was so amazing! I've loved all of her songs, but her image has changed drastically when compared to what it was around the beginning of her career. That's not a bad thing, but because of this, all of her albums have been different. I feel like she hasn't changed very much since her 1989 album, so I'm worried that her new songs will be disappointing. I'm sure they'll be great, but I still have some doubts! Sorry Taylor!


The second album I want to talk about is Bridgit Mendlers's! It is scheduled to be released November 18th and I'm so excited! "Hello My Name Is" killed me because it was so good! Her sound is so different but so incredible! An EP entitled "Atlantis" was recently released to help promote her new album. If you haven't heard it yet, put your life on hold for a few minutes and listen to it! When I first heard it, I liked it but I couldn't believe that it was her. She sounds so grown up now! It's insane! I just can't even put into words how incredible of an artist she is. Her songs are very relate-able and they just make you feel good about life and yourself. And she doesn't even have to sing about the dirty! She left Disney Channel as an innocent person and she stayed that way! I'm so proud of her and can't wait to watch her career develop even more!


The last album I would like to discuss hasn't been confirmed but I think we can all agree that this artist needs to release one soon... Nicki Minaj!!! It seems like her Pinkprint album was just released, but it has been almost two years! She hasn't really been taking a break from music because she is always featured in songs or coming out with remixes, but it's time for her to grace us with another of her insanely amazing albums. She oozes talent, and I just need some new songs to diss the haters and boost myself.
These are the albums that I'm most excited about right now! If you're not as eager as I am about any of them, you need to try again!

Let me know in the comments which album you are most looking forward to and let me know your thoughts on Taylor's upcoming album. Will it be a hit?

Hey guys! I'm guest posting today from my blog Somewhere Just Above Average! I post every Wednesday and Saturday so please come and follow my blog for the best advice, fashion, music, media and just my opinion on topics! 

It's finally October! My favorite time of the year! Which means Halloween is right around the corner! As you might be able to tell, Halloween is my favorite holiday! I love all things spooky and scary! Plus free candy and costumes! How could you not like Halloween? 

But if your having trouble this year picking out you're costume then here are 5 choices to think about down below! 



1. Disney: Maleficent and Gaston

Disney characters are probably the most fun to dress up as! But everyone does the same old princesses and princes... so dress up as Disney villains for a change!  

Gaston is a great character for guys who have a nice body. All you need is a black wig, red shirt and green pants and there you go! (It would also help to have a fake gun and maybe a beer bottle) and who knows maybe you will find you're Belle this Halloween night!

Maleficent is the queen of all the Disney Villains! So it only suits that you dress up like her ladies. Black horns, a long black robe and a matching staff, who wouldn't want to be the sassy, powerful and beautiful Maleficent?!












2. Celebrity: Kylie Jenner and Harry Styles



For those of you who like to dress up like celebrities, might I suggest Kylie Jenner and Harry Styles? Kylie Jenner is queen of fashion with her makeup line and stylish fashion tips while Harry Styles is the cute British boy taking a break from the music world to join a career in acting. Both are very successful in their careers and are two of the hottest young celebrities in pop culture right now so why not dress up like them? Just pick your favorite Kylie and Harry phase and have fun impersonating them. Who knows? Maybe people will actually believe you're really them!


3. DIY: Starbucks Coffee Cup? Flander from Simpsons? 

Being creative is what makes Halloween fun! Always trying to think outside of the box to create a costume that no one else would have or simply trying to create a costume out of household items. Ever thought of being a Starbucks coffee cup? Very simple to do and can look great if done correctly. But what about Flander from the Simpsons? All you need is yellow face paint, a fake mustache and the right hairstyle and I'm sure you will get some good laughs throughout the night. 



4. Group: Wizard of Oz

Group costumes to me are the most fun! Just having a bunch of people commit to something is exciting because the results are always amazing. An old classic Halloween group costume that never goes out of style is the Wizard of Oz! Depending on how big your group is, you can substitute many different characters like Dorthy, Tinman, Lion, Scarecrow, Glinda, Witch of the West, Flying Monkey's, the Wizard of Oz, and even the little munchkin people! But don't forget Todo!



5. Most Popular: Harley Quinn and the Joker

Last but not least let me introduce the King and Queen of Gotham City! The Joker and Harley Quinn! Since the popular movie Suicide Squad premiered early this August, these two characters are surely going to be the most dressed up characters of the year. (Especially Harley Quinn...) So why not join the craze! 





Well that's it! I hope everyone is just as excited for Halloween this year as me! It kind of sucks because it's on a Monday this year but I guess that's okay... Of course if you're grown up like me (meaning trick or treating is off limits...) show off your costumes at some fun Halloween Parties this year! (Halloween Parties are better than trick or treating anyway... especially when people wear the sexy versions of costumes...) But I do advise you to watch out for clowns. This year is not the year to dress up or trust clowns for the matter... you never know if they're going to give you candy or stab you in the chest so I would just avoid them altogether... #clownsightings 

Hey guys! For my post today I'd like to talk about something that hasn't been all over the news, but I think it's a pretty interesting topic.

Have ya'll heard that Bella Thorne is now dating a guy named Tyler Posey???? They were rumored to have been dating back in 2015, but they both denied it. Now there is a picture of them kissing, so it's hard to keep it a secret now. Supposedly it's not that serious and they're just "testing the waters". But I swear she just posted that Instagram video of her kissing a girl like last week! I'm confused. First of all, she broke up with Gregg Sulkin who is so adorable! And she was always posting cute snap-chats of them together, so this really took me by surprise.

 Then she claims to be dating her brothers ex-girlfriend, and now she's back with a guy?! How can she do us like that??
.
I mean I don't hate Bella but she needs to calm down. Coming out as bi isn't just a random thing you say when you're bored. I feel like she said it so loosely. I mean literally some guy tweeted her asking if she was bi, and all she responded with was "yes".

Maybe she just said she was bi so she could test both sides of the playing field and not have to deal with everyone freaking out. She's only 19, so I guess she has the right to have fun and just be a teenager. But my neck hurts from all these whiplashes!

It's hard being a celebrity because everyone always knows your business, but that's just how it is. Also, Tyler is really good friends with Gregg! They did him dirty!Gregg needs to tell Tyler that he can try again!!

Well, sorry this post is so short but neither one of them are giving away much information about their relationship status. Comment below how you feel about this topic. Do ya'll like Tyler or are you still holding onto the idea of Bella and Gregg?

   1. Buzzfeed
Buzzfeed videos are always a great idea! This channel features a wide variety of videos that contain topics over anything you can think of. There are three different teams on Buzzfeed-yellow, violet, and blue. Each team creates different types of videos. Buzzfeed yellow contains hilarious social segments along with DIYs that aim to entertain and inform. Buzzfeed violet involves content that may be a little awkward to discuss, but is very relate-able and honest. The final team is Buzzfeed blue, which focuses on important life experiences as well as educating and inspiring the audience to be themselves and try new things. Each respective color features basically the same staff, so you will be able to make a connection with them, making it easier to stay interested in their channel.

   2. Jenna Marbles
Originally starting out with the blog BarStool Sports, Jenna's popularity skyrocketed after she posted a video called " How to Trick People Into Thinking You're Good Looking". Because it was an instant hit, it led her to start focusing on her own YouTube channel. She is a fun, outgoing person who gives advice, tells hilarious stories, and informs about relate-able topics. Her videos are for all genders, even though her stories may be more popular among females because we understand what she's talking about. Go check her out, especially if you love to laugh!

   3. Raw Alignment
This is an unusual YouTube channel for me to watch because I've never watched one that is so focused on a personal lifestyle, but this girl is really interesting to me. Her name is Alyse, and she is a 22 year old raw vegan who creates videos about self-love, her diet, fitness, and minimalist living. Her channel is very upbeat, and it's pretty fascinating to learn about her points of view and her way of life. She lives in Hawaii, so it's easy to understand why she's always in a great mood! Watch her channel for some encouragement and a positive atmosphere.




Well, those are my suggestions! Comment below which of the three you like the best, or just let me know which YouTube channel in general is your favorite. And if you're just going to ignore my suggestions, you can try again!
