Jersey Boy

Jersey Boy

Hi guys! Today I am going to write about the musical I saw with my family and one of my friends.

Last Thursday my family had tickets to see a musical called Jersey Boy. My older brother had a concert that night so we had an extra ticket. So I invited my friend Ashley. After school she rode the bus home with me and got off at my house. We got in the car with the rest of my family and drove 2 hours to my grandparents house. Then we ate dinner really quick when we got there. Next we went to the subway and took a train to DC which took about a hour.

When we got there we were seated and waited for the show to start. Jersey Boy was about a band from New Jersey. They started out messed up and making criminal offenses. Soon they made four hits and started becoming popular. They named their band the four seasons. Their band is rising to the public but they have problems inside the group. Tommy owed a lot of money to people and wasn't treating the group very good. They forced Tommy out of the group and payed off his debts. After Tommy left so did Nick. Then Bob decided that he just wanted to write the songs and not preform them. So Bob and Frankie decided to make the band called Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons. The four seasons part was just four extras.

In the end of the play Frankie's daughter died of drug overdose. The original Four Seasons had a get together. This play was amazing. We had a great time and the music was awesome. I had a great time. After the play we went back on the subway and then drove the rest of the way home. We got home at around 1:30am. Ashley stayed the night and I was super tired at school the next day.

I had a great time at the play. I thought it was great and I would give it a 9 out of 10.

The Pyramid Movie Review



Hi guys! Today I am going to write about a movie I watched last night called Pyramids. It's a horror movie that had me hiding behind my blanket at some scenes. SPOILER ALERT!

So the movie started out with a three sided pyramid being found. It was underground buried by sand. Two father and daughter archeologists, Nora and Holden, are running a team of people trying to get into the pyramid. When they first open it they get blasted with a giant cloud of toxic air. The only person effected was the guy that opened the tunnel. They are told that they have to pack up and leave by morning. They decide to send in a NASA robot for 2 hours. They send it in and they think that a dog got in and disconnected it. So 5 of them, Nora, Holden, Fitzie, Sunni, and Zahir, decide to go in and get it.

They go into the pyramid and they find the robot destroyed into 2 pieces. They decide that they want to go further into the pyramid just a little bit and then go back. So they get into a room and they can't remember where they came from. So they take a guess and go through one of the tunnels. They get to a room where the floor starts to crumble and break apart. They try to get out but they fall through the floor into another room. In this room a giant stone falls and lands on Zahirs leg. They couldn't move the stone by themselves so they look for ways out to go get help. Sunni tried climbing a tunnel and when she reached the top something jumped out at her and scratched her face so she fell. She was fine she just had scratches on her face. So they leave Zahir to go get help and they go into another room. They hear Zahir scream and they run back to him but when they get there he had bee. devoured by something. They keep moving trying to get out when they are chased by these cat creatures. They chase them into a room where they find a solider that had come to get them. The cats kill the solider.

They are moving on into a narrow hallway. Holden touches a stone structure and the door behind them slams shut and the hall begins to fill with sand, fast. They start running down the hallway and Sunni sees that at the end there is a room of spikes below. She stops and the then Fitzie runs into her and accidentally pushes her over and she gets impaled by three spikes. She is still alive but in terrible pain. Then the cat creatures come in and start biting at her. The other three throw a flair down and the cats run. Then they climb down to her. If they take her if she will die. They stay with her a little while and then she has a seizure and it kills her. They keep moving on until they realize that they went in a complete circle and are back in the room with the NASA robot. They try and find a way out when they get to the room with a coffin. Holden is talking when an evil God shoves his hand threw his chest and takes his heart. He weighs his heart because whatever heart weighs the exact same as his fathers is a pure heart and will free him. Then Fitzie and Nora run and start climbing up a tunnel that leads out of the pyramid when the evil cat guy climbs up and takes Fitzie and then Nora. He kills Fitzie but Nora escapes and gets to the top. She is almost out of the tunnel when she passes out. When she wakes up a kid comes into the tunnel because he sees her and picks up the camera. He is looking at the camera when the car guy appears behind him and then the screen goes blank and the movie ends.

I liked this movie but it was pretty gross at times. I'd give it a 7 out of 10. Hope you enjoyed and decide to watch this movie!

Snow White and the Huntsman Movie Review



Hi guys! Today I'm going to write a movie review on Snow White and The Huntsman. SPOILER ALERT!

So the movie starts out with the queen wanting a child with skin as white as snow and lips as red as blood. Her and the King conceive a child and she is born. She is said to be the symbol of beauty in the kingdom. When Snow White is about 10 her mom dies of a fever in a harsh winter. Then her father fights a ghost army and finds a prisoner, a beautiful woman. For once he forgets about his wife and he decides to marry her. That night the new Queen poisoned and killed the King. She locked up Snow White and she took over the kingdom.

The magic mirror told the queen that she could only stay forever young by taking Snow Whites heart. Snow White escapes the tower and she runs into the dark forest. The queen send a Huntsman after her and he only does it because the queen says she will bring his wife back to life. He gets Snow White and finds out the queen is lying so he protects her and helps her get to her army. They go a few different places where disaster strikes. She's almost to the army when the queen gives her a poisonous apple that kills her.

She is brought back to life by true loves kiss, the Huntsman. Then she storms into the kingdom with her army and she kills the evil queen. At the end of the movie she gets crowned Queen. I have been loving fairytale media lately. The tv show Once Upon A Time is one of my all time favorites. I also like the movies Maleficent, Cinderella, and I'm looking forward to The Huntsman coming out soon. I would give this movie a 7.8 out of 10.

I really enjoyed watching it and I think you should try it too.

Will Grayson, Will Grayson Book Review

Will Grayson, Will Grayson Book Review

Hi guys! Today I am going to write a book review on the book Will Grayson, Will Grayson by John Green and David Levithan. I finished this book in about a month. SPOILER ALERT!

The chapters in the book rotate between the two different Will Grayson's. In the beginning of the book the Will Grayson's don't really like their lives. One Will is feeling rejected by his best friend, Tiny. The other Will is hating his entire life except for his online "boyfriend" Isaac. He has one friend named Maura who gets on his nerves sometimes. One day the first Will gets set up by Tiny with his friend Jane. At the time he doesn't want to date her. Eventually, when he gets a boyfriend, he realized that he actually does want to date her.

The second Will has his first real life date with Isaac. He was stood up by Isaac but when he was in the store he was supposed to meet Isaac in, he met the first Will. They talk for a while and then Maura calls the second will and says that she was Isaac all along and Will got mad at her. The first Will tries to comfort him but can't really do it. Tiny comes over and the first Will introduces him to the second Will and then Tiny starts dating the second Will. When they break up Tiny was really upset. Tiny was making a play a few days later and the second Will came to see it. At the end of the play he stood up and said my name is Will Grayson and I appreciate you Tiny Cooper. Then every other person in the audience started standing and saying it. The first Will won over Jane and she broke up with her boyfriend and started dating him.

By the end of this book both Will Grayson's lives turned out not to be to bad after all. I would give this book an 8/10. Most parts of this book will have you constantly wanting to read more and you won't want to put it down. Both of the authors, John Green and David Levithan, are amazing authors that I have read multiple books from.

I highly recommend this book I think is great. I hope you choose to read this book because it's worth the time!

Ideas On What To Do Over Spring Break

Ideas On What To Do Over Spring Break

Hi guys! Today I'm going to talk about ideas on what you can do to make your spring break more exciting.

Sometimes spring break can get boring. All you feel like doing is laying around and watching tv while stuffing your face with food. It doesn't have to be boring though, you can do some pretty fun things. The first suggestion I have is do something crafty. So go to a Michael's or a Hobby Lobby and buy something you can work on. I went to Hobby Lobby and I bought some fabric to recover some of my throw pillows in. It's a good way to be productive while doing something fun.

The next thing is to do something active. I plan on biking, going on walks, and doing some yoga. Spring break is a good time to start being active and eating healthy because you don't have to worry about school getting in the way of it. It's a good time to figure out what kind of exercising you like. You can also try things like making smoothies for a meal or using more fresh foods.

My last idea is invite some friends over. Maybe you all could go somewhere like Six Flags or a beach. You could have fun at home to. You can do things like find fun challenges online or have makeovers. They can also help encourage you to work out and be more active.

That's all for ideas on what you can do over spring break. I hope you try at least one of these!

Hobbies Update


Hi guys! So on January 10th I wrote a blog about the hobbies that I wanted to try. They were soap making, candle making, diy’s, and YouTube. So far, I’ve tried soap making and YouTube. 

We bought supplies from Hobby Lobby for soap making. I had a lot of fun making soaps. Since then I’ve run out of soap base so the next time we’re there I’ll have to get more. I made a lot of soap and they turned out pretty cute and I had a lot of fun doing it. I liked mixing different colors and different scents. So far i’ve made about 10 soaps. 

For YouTube I haven’t actually posted anything yet but I’ve filmed a little with one of my friends. We plan on actually filming, editing, and posting something over spring break. Our channel name is A&KBeauty. We’re probably going to film a work out expectations vs reality video. I am really excited about starting a channel and I will probably do another whole blog on it once i set it up. Ashley and I have already made an email and an Instagram for our channel. We haven't posted anything on it yet but if you want to follow it for when we do post it’s a.kbeauty. 

I want to try candle making and diy’s but I haven't bought the supplies for it  yet. I have some really fun ideas that I think will be great. I might even film a diy video and put it on YouTube. Technically candle making and soap making are both diy’s so I could do a video on those too. I also want to try making bath bombs. I might start an easy shop with my mom and if I do I’ll blog about it.


So thats my hobbies update! I hope to start a couple of other things soon! I’m extremely excited for my YouTube channel.

Track & Field



Hi guys! Today I am going to write about track & field.

Track & field practice started on Monday after school. A couple of my friends convinced me to sign up for track. Last week I went to the meeting where you sign up for track & field and we bought all of our gear. On Monday I went down to the field locker rooms and we had a meeting. Then after the coaches finished talking to us we ran an 800 which is half a mile and then we started our warm ups and stretches. After that we sprinted four 100's and jogged two 200's. Track practice ends at 4 and field practice ends at 5 so after track I went to field. We practiced shot put and discus.

On Tuesday after track the pole vaulting coach pulled me to the side and asked me if I was interested in doing it. We talked about it a little and I have a choice between throwing for field, pole vaulting for field, or sprinting for track. I haven't had a chance to try pole vaulting yet but I think the coach will be there on Monday. For the rest of the week I ran and threw.

My legs were extremely sore for the first 4 days but since then I've adjusted pretty well. So far track & field has been really fun. I've met a lot of new people in track & field. I also love being outside as opposed to an indoor sport like volleyball in the fall.

I'm having a lot of fun in track & field and I'm glad I joined it.
