Movie Monday: Poms Movie Review

So I think I'll still post more movie posts other than just on Mondays... but I think my Movie Mondays will just be reviews whereas I'll post deeper posts for other movie posts. Movies I've seen before like my Love Actually post and stuff like that.

Anyway onto Poms- I didn't really think that I'd like the movie- but I knew that my mom would like this movie so I recorded it for my mom and I actually ended up watching it with her and I thought it was really cute. It wasn't a great movie or anything- but it's just a sweet story that'll make you smile and laugh.

This is about a woman- played by Diane Keaton who goes to a retirement community "to die" as she says... and we learn in the movie that she has Cancer and she is dying. She hears of some clubs that are in the community and they're all a little snobby for her... so she wants to start a Cheerleading Club for Senior Citizens. She had wanted to be a Cheerleader in High School and then she had to d5rop out because her mom was sick with cancer. Diane Keaton's character ends up getting a group of women together... and they end up getting a High School Cheerleader to coach them... and it's really fun and cute.

The movie is very fun and heartfelt. It's the type of movie that will make you laugh and cry... but overall I think it's hard to see this and not smile.

It isn't a fantastic movie really... the jokes are funny but it's similar to other movies like it. There are like 2 montage scenes back to back which I don't really like... but still I feel like it would be very cynical of me to give it a bad review because overall it was just a cute movie that I really enjoyed.

This movie had a great cast too... obviously Diane Keaton was in it but also Rhea Pearlman, Pam Grier, Jessica from 13 Reasons Why. It was a good cast and Rhea Pearlman in particular was really funny.

Bye!

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...

Uhhhh... Where Have I been?

 So it hasn't been that long- but I did mention that I wanted to keep this more of a daily-ish blog than I have in years past... and my last post was the  4th and today was the 11th. Did I give up on my resolutions already?  No/Sort of... sooo basically I was kind of considering the real start of the new year January 5th... I was very busy with work things up until the 4th... the 4th was the big work event that I had to do... and then after that I could focus on whatever I wanted to focus on... and my blogs were going to be the number 1 thing that I focused on for sure... I might miss a few days... but surely I'd do something for this blog right on the 5th after the big work thing was done... so just leading up to that as long as I post something- everything is good right?  Nope- I realized my room design... needed some refreshing. And then one project turned into several projects and then that took a few days... I think I started on doing stuff on Wednesday of last ...

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...
