New Year 2014

By
2013 was beyond words. I married my best friend, went on an amazing and romantic honeymoon, met amazing people that I will never forget and reconnected with family that I let slip through the cracks. 2013 was by far the best year on record. But 2014 brings about a new set of exciting – starting the life that I know I deserve. Every year I make a list of resolutions that I rarely keep (which is the first problem) but this year I have a much different and better outlook on the year and what I want to accomplish. I feel confident. I feel radiant. I know that this year will be amazing and better than last year because I want it to be. If you want something bad enough you just have to go out and get it, no matter what it takes. That is what I plan on doing this year. I have made a few resolutions and I plan on keeping every single one of them. I also created a 30 by 30 list as this is the last year in my 20’s. I know I will accomplish everything on that list come hell or high water.
I have confidence in myself and know that I am strong enough to complete anything I set my mind to. I just have to be willing to work for it. I will admit a lot of things have come easily to me – finding my wife was honestly one of the easiest things. I just happened to find her in the most likely of places but it was easy how well we clicked and became something to each other. Isn’t that supposed to be one of the hardest things? With that being so easy, the other things in my life are bound to be not as easy – finding a job, finding a place to live, having a family. But no matter how hard things get, the outcome will out weight everything. It took us 2.5 years to put on the wedding and it was the best day of my life and well worth the weight. Everything else in my life – the family, the house – will be worth the wait. I just have to realize that I am not ready yet but I will be soon and that what I am doing now is helping me get there.
For 2014 I cannot go anywhere but up and as long as I keep a positive attitude towards life and everything around me I will be just fine. Everything will be fine. I recently read somewhere that the more you dwell on the negative instead of the positive you will start to deteriorate from the inside out. Is that the way anyone should live their life? I think not.
So here are my resolutions for 2014. This year more than ever I feel confident that I will succeed as long as I remember why I am keeping these and what the end result will be:
1. Reach goal weight (160)
2. Finish all items on 30 by 30 List (January 2015)
3. Be more positive
4. Keep workout routine going
5. Stop apologizing for the things that make you happy
6. Live and smile
I hope everyone can create a resolution list and stick to it. As long as you have something to hold on to, you will make 2014 the best year for the best you.

Once Upon A Time

By
Out of all of the new shows I had decided to watch this year, it comes as so surprise that the one show I have kept up with the most is the show from the same producers as Lost – Once Upon A Time.    The show is about a boy, Henry, who believes that his town – Storybrooke, Maine – is really the Enchanted Forest and everyone has forgotten who they are. He came to that idea from a book he was given by his teacher, Mary Margaret who Henry believes is really Snow White.   He believes his adoptive mother, Regina, is really the Evil Queen, his therapist is Jiminy Cricket, the John Doe in the hospital is Prince Charming, and the one who can save everything is Emma, his birth mother who gave him up for adoption 10 years ago. And did I mention that Henry believes Emma to be the daughter of Snow White and Prince Charming?   Henry also believes that the Evil Queen cast a curse on the whole Enchanted Forest which is why they can’t remember who they are. Still with me? Good. Let’...

"For a Few to be Immortal, Many Must Die" - In Time

By
It is an interesting topic – living forever.   We all have said at one point or another we want the fountain of youth to bless us with eternal beauty and life.   But what would living forever mean? You would see history happen right before your eyes – and see it written in history books for children to read during school.   If you had been living forever, you could have seen the curse start for the Red Sox in 1918 and then get broken in 2004.   And again in 2007.   But what it would it mean?   By living forever, you don’t like a day in your life. If you live forever, what makes tomorrow so special.   The people in District 12 have it better than the rich – they have to make very moment, every second count. In Time, starring Justin Timberlake and Amanda Seyfried, is set in 2161 where a genetic alteration has allowed humanity to stop aging past age 25.   But people are required to earn more time in order to stay alive past age 25 or their ...

The Last Song

By
Before I begin this review, I must put a disclaimer. The only way I got through this movie was to look past Miley Cyrus as the lead. With that said, so starts my review. With imagination running out in Hollywood, producers have to look to other forms of entertainment for inspiration. Nicholas Sparks books have always been a very good place with hit movies such as A Walk to Remember, Message in a Bottle, and The Notebook. In 2010, Hollywood made 2 of his books into movies - Dear John and The Last Song starring Miley Cyrus and Greg Kinnear. Before seeing this movie, I made it a point to read  the book so I could compare the two mediums. This story wasn't a typical Sparks novel in the sense of about finding your true love. This is a story about the dysfunctional yet oddly functional relationship between an 18-year old teenage and her estranged father. Roni and her 10 year old brother come to live at their father's house in South Carolina, on the water, for the summer much to ...
