Director Kimberly Peirce reimagines the classic story of Carrie, a highschool teenage girl who is tormented by the entire senior class. Given the excellenct casting of Carrie as well as her mother Margret, this movie delievers effects which the original wasn't able to support in it's time. Chloe Grace Moretz (Kick-Ass) portrays the role of Carrie White, giving us a satisying performance which by the time the movie is over, your happy that little vampire girl from 'Let me In' ended up landing the…

An eyewitness claims to have seen a blue van drive away from the crime scene, but was the van really blue? If the eyewitness remembers seeing a blue van, but in reality, it was a white van at the scene, the witness may be experiencing a false memory. False memory is the changing of details of an event or remembering an event that did not happen. False memoires can have long lasting consequences and have been linked to important situations of high risk, like court room proceedings. There are…

have found that a yogurt or a salad midday adds to my energy and I eat less at dinner. I feel more full when I get less now and definitely have more energy later in the day. I also have changed my snack habits and now mostly snack on string cheese, popcorn, nuts or fruit instead of empty calorie snacks.…

This I Believe. As I held my newborn daughter in my arms and felt her little hand wrap around my finger, I thought, how precious she was, and for one brief moment I wished time would freeze. This also happened with my other two daughters. Now, one is playing princesses, and the other one is climbing up on chairs to reach for Mommy’s edible hidden treasures. I believe being a mom is the hardest, yet most rewarding job I’ve ever had. I loved a video clip I watched on YouTube. They were…

Hey Everyone I hope you all are having a fantastic day. Mine has been pretty busy today. I wanted to get on here and make a post about my healthy eating journey. I know I had mentioned it in another post, but I thought that It was something that deserved its own post. I need to mention that I am in no way a health professional I am simply doing what has worked for me. Today I am starting to eat clean. I am not doing any set eating plan its kind of a mixture of what has worked in the past. A key…

Its great to have friends, but having an ideal friend is better. Having an ideal friend is like having everything you want by your side. My best friend will be happy for all things I offer to them. All I want is a best friend that has many things in common with me. First things first. Hanging out together would be very fun. To hang out, your schedule can not be packed with other things you need to do. It's hard if you have a job, extracurriculars, and a bunch of homework. If you have free time…

Aura of Uniqueness in the The Piratebay 2003 In the following essay I will be using Walter Benjamin essay on The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction to discuss ‘uniqueness’ and provide a visual example to explain the concept. Benjamin (1936:790) explains that we live in a world, where traditional viewing of ‘film and television’ is being replaced by the advancement of technologies and how the user/viewer has multiple formats and options for viewing movies and television shows, such…

Game Day I woke up thinking, It's game day. I was as nervous as a mouse surrounded by a cat. My 13-year-old baseball team was playing the team that won the championship two years in a row. I kind of thought we all were nervous because if we lost that meant we go home and nobody wanted to go home. Since I was awake early in the morning I thought I should do my daily routine of stretching and eating my oatmeal and salad. Since our game was later that day like a night game I just did a few sit ups…

If you’ve ever been to Disneyland, then you are probably familiar with the coveted FASTPASS. The FASTPASS is a ticket that allows you to enter an attraction at a later time with a shorter wait. If I had it my way my FASTPASS would always read “zero minutes.” When I don’t have a FASTPASS for a ride, then the long lines seem to last a century. This is a humorous example of my impatient tendencies, but I will be honest, I really do struggle to be patient, especially when I am waiting on God’s…
