Hobbit is coming up people!!

    Ok so I guess now is the point in time where I tell you all that I'm probably the BIGGEST fan of the Lord of the Rings, Hobbit, J.R.R Tolkin, ect, EVER.  This November, Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug is coming into theaters.  Oh my goodness I can't stop jumping around, phew deep breaths.
    I absolutely cannot wait, Benedict Cumberbatch (one of my favorite actors) is going to be playing Smaug the dragon.  Also Martin Freeman is playing my all time favorite character Bilbo Baggins.  These two also star in the hit series of Sherlock, season 3 soon to come out in 2014, but more on that later.
    Many of my favorite Lord of the Rings characters will be appearing in this one too.  Orlando Bloom, playing Legolas will finally be appearing.  Ugh, when they said he'ld be coming back I thought they meant the first one, but no no.  Anyway, Ian Mckellen, as Gandalf will most assuredly be back to wish us a "good morning".  I hope somehow Peter Jackson brings back all the hobbits, for those who haven't yet seen The Lord of the Rings, and give them a taste of the Shire and all the friends you meet and the lifestyle that they live there.
    One actress I'm not so keen on seeing is Evangeline Lilly.  She's lost all my respect, ever since she played on the series Lost.  Though her acting is fantastic, I don't know if I'll be able to enjoy the movie as long as I know what all she's done previously.  Though an actress I'm very much looking forward to is Cate Blanchett who will be Galadriel.
    This winter is going to be packed with all kinds of great sequels, and movies.  Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug, Hunger games: Catching Fire (not very excited about that one), Psych the Musical, Sherlock season 3, the 50th Anniversary of Doctor Who, and the new Disney movie Frozen.  I'm sure I'm missing some but you get the point.  Pinterest, Tumblr, and the rest are going to be overflowing with pictures, songs, and just gobs of random nerdyness.  Tell me what you're looking forward to!

Shark Week! Christmas came early!

        "AHHHHH!! SHARK!!!!" This past week has been my favorite of all year.  Better than Christmas, better than Summer Vacation, it was SHARK WEEK PEOPLE!  All year I have waited ever so patiently for this 1 week to come to pass.  So many different species, and so little time.  Y'all, sharks are my favorite animal of all time.  It just saddens my heart when so many fishermen around the world take advantage of the creatures, killing them for their fins, and selling them for thousands of dollars to be made into soup.  But enough on that for now, there is so much the talk about and I just cannot contain myself any longer.       There have been multiple sighting this year, either in passing on a boat, while fishing, and a few were spotted on the beach.  The first sighting was in Massachusetts on June 11th off the coast of Cape Cod.  The shark left the area within an hour, and all the beach goers were allowed...

Frank Sinatra

  Frank Sintra, know for his astounding voice, and his fine acting.  Born in Hoboken  New Jersey he was the only child of Italian immigrants.  His book "Try and Stop Me" said that his father was a lightweight boxer.  Unfortunately Sinatra didn't graduate high school, because of his rowdy behavior he was expelled.     Honestly this was a shock wo me when I first found out.     He began singing for tips at the age of eight, standing on top of the bar at a local nightclub in Hoboken. Sinatra began singing professionally as a teenager in the 1930s,  although he  learned music by ear, he  never learned how to read music.  Sinatra got his first break in 1935 when his mother persuaded a local singing group to let him join.  When he joined they became the Hoboken Four.  He didn't stay with the group for very long, late in 1935 he cam e back home and his mother found a job for him as a singin...

1st Week of Craziness

   I'm not sure how I didn't think of this before, but I figured that it's been long enough that no one really pays attention to this blog anymore.  My blog is plain and boring and I don't have the time or energy to really make it look as wonderful as some because of my college schedule.  Anyway I'm writing this because I've had a bit of a traumatic experience happening in my life right now, and I guess this is a way that I can keep everyone involved updated about how I'm doing without breaking any rules.     I recently had to take a step back from my boyfriend and my brother because my brother felt that my boyfriend wasn't the one for me.  On this occasion I won't go into the details about how or why this had to happen, instead I'll just give a highlight.  My brother thinks my boyfriend is bad for me because of some things that he has heard from his girlfriend, and because I was stuck fast in the middle between my boyfriend and my brother...
