Book of Eli

Monday, February 22nd, 2010

Along side with Denzel Washington and Gary Oldham, Mila Kunis (above) starred in Book of Eli, one of the best movies I’ve seen this year. It was excellent. It’s about the world after a somewhat apocalypse and a man who’s been trying to reach a destination since. He’s spiritual and resilient and some people want what he has. So they try to take it from him. Little do they know that they can’t take it from him. That’s all I’ll say.

I left inspired and Denzel blows me away as an actor. I just can’t handle it.

If you haven’t seen it, please go see this movie. Worth the $10. Trust me.

The Revolving Door

Friday, February 19th, 2010

It happens to all of us. We go through that relationship that consumes us to the max. We think about what it would be like if it never broke off and sometimes why it even broke off in the first place because when we think about it, all we can remember is the good times. Your friends say it ended for the better and you think it changed your forever. Everyone says you shouldn’t talk to them but in the end you crack and you do. Over and over again. No matter how many times you tell yourself you won’t, you always fall back for that one person.

When it comes to that one ex, how is it that we always go through a revolving door? (more…)

First Date Etiquette

Wednesday, February 10th, 2010

The thing is with first dates is that there is a lot of pressure to make a strong and good first impression. We all know that first impressions are lasting ones and so we want people to remember us well. I came up with an acronym for the word F.I.R.S.T. to explain the do’s and don’ts of first date behavior. It’s good stuff. (more…)
