Cinderella


Disney's Cinderella (2015) was one of Walt Disney Company's smartest decision of 2015. 

Bold statement, but as an accounting major I think about the money that they will be getting with this movie. 

According to IMBD, Cinderella is currently the number one movie in the country and with a gross profit of $122.52 Million in two weeks.

The classic tale of Cinderella was brought again to the big screen. This time Cinderella was played by the gorgeous Lilly James. 

This is not a new story for Disney, but the classic movie they made was created again and they once again made another fortune on this story.

Although it's not a new story we got from Disney, and everyone knows the ending to the story. It will keep you at the edge of your seat and you will feel like a kid watching it for the very first time. 

With a themes like "Have Courage and be kind" Cinderella is an amazing film that anyone in the family can watch.

Not to mention it was beautifully made from costumes to set disign. Disney spent big bucks on the designs for the custome and the set.

















Very well done Disney. Now put it on DVD so I can buy and watch it just as much as I watched the original as a kid. :)



Healer

Healer Drama Poster
Healer -> Korean drama that was on December 8, 2014 to February 10, 2015, and it had 20 episodes. 

Code name Healer is a night-carrier (I believe that's the word they used) or also known Seo Jung-ho played by actor Ji Chang-Wook. Jung-ho is man who will steal and find anything for a price, and if it doesn't envolve killing. 

He is hired by the popular news report Kim Moon-ho (Yoo Ji-Tae) to find the long lost daughter of his older brother's wife. 

Not only does he want to find this long lost daughter, but  Kim Moon-ho learns about the past regarding his older brother and what he did with his two best friends. 

Not only there is mystery about what happened with Kim Moon-Ho's older brother and his friends but the mystery of of the long lost daughter. Adding on top of them we have our main character Seo Jung-Ho doing his best to prove he was not a murder. 

Plus if you like a drama where the main girl isn't annoying stupid and she stands up for her self you will like this one. 

Healer is an action packed mystery with romance and heartbreak. It's keeps you on your the tip of your seat and you never know what's going to happen.

This drama reminded me why I loved Korean dramas in the first place. 


Akatsuki No Yona

Akatsuki No Yona Anime Poster
Akatsuki No Yona is a Japanese cartoon or anime about a young princess named Yona. Unlike most princess animes, Akatsuki No Yona is about Princess Yona who witness the murder of her father by her childhood friend / crush. 

This is a story about girl becoming a women, and the difficult choices you have to make in life. Also, it's about the friends you make along your journey in life. 

When this anime starts Yona is a helpless princess, that only cares about herself. After the event of her father's murder her life gets thrown upside down. She learns about the people of her country and the destiny she has.

Although the plotline is serious, there is some funny scenes between the characters especially Hak, her trusty bodyguard who loves to pick on her 

It's a story about the underdog and those are always the best.

Really recommend this anime, especially if you are new to anime because this is a story everyone can like.

The Return pt 3

"Thea, please just eat the pizza" Roy said as he took the pizza and placed it on the table before 
taking a slice of pizza to eat. 

"No Roy. I want to know why she can't stand me. I don't know what I did to her" Thea said with the frustration in her voice. She didn't understand why Felicity hated her so much. 

"Thea, you lost your brother and Felicity lost someone who was very special to her," Roy said as he looked down thinking about Oliver. Oliver had been great influence to him and he gave Roy a purpose to live. After he said that to her, he saw Thea looking towards the way Felicity had left. 

"Ok, but that's doesn't explain why she can't even look at me and the whole thing about me not being able to be down here does not make sense." She said as she took slice a pizza. 

"Your brother had rules about how we did things and who got to know things. One of the rules was that you never knew about this place and what he did. I just broke two of those rules. Not to mention you guys act and look like each other." Roy said as he finished slice of pizza and started to pick other slice. 

Thea just nodded not knowing what to say just learned. She had no clue her brother was close to some and she always though they were just friends, although it was no surprise that Felicity liked Oliver. Thea knew that Oliver played girls well. 

"Oliver and Felicity were partners when did this together, and the last thing I heard him say to her was that he loved her. " Roy said as he looked into Thea's eyes and held her hand that wasn't holding the pizza.

The return pt 2

One month later...

Felicity turns to her computer as Ray continues to talk about his A.T.O.M. project. She was starting to get annoyed about him talking about how his progress has been going good. Although recently nothing can make her happy or not annoy her. It's been that since the day she found out what had happen to Oliver Queen. 

"Ray, can you please shut up about your plans and the whole Atom thing? The only thing that will come out of you trying to become a vigilante is that you will die! Do you think that's what she would have wanted?" Felicity screamed and stormed out of her office leaving him shocked on to what just happened 

As she was on the elevator she regretted it, so she decided to send him text. 

"Sorry. I'm just dealing with something's. I hope you forgive me," she texted to Ray. Then she put her phone away. Felicity decided to go to the lair in which she used to spend so many nights in. 

She gets there and she sees Roy drawing his arrow to shoot at the moving target. Recently, he has been improving a lot recently. Roy turns around and starts to walk towards Felicity. 

"How are you, Felicity?" He asks her putting his bow on the table. 

"I'm fine " she said. Recently that has become what she says a lot since it's better than saying I'm angry or I'm depressed or what ever emotion she was having. 

"I'm back with pizza" a female voice said going down the stairs. Felicity turned around to see Thea coming down. 

"Roy what is Thea doing here?" Felicity asked Roy with a stern look. "You know she is not suppose to know about this place. It's one the rules Ol-" she stopped herself before she said his name not knowing what it would be do to herby saying it. 

"Thea is just bring me so lunch and Thea decided she wanted to have a sparing partner." Roy said to her with a angry tone to his voice. 

"I'm sorry but she can NOT be here." Felicity yelled at Roy and sat on her seat tracking their next target and hacking in to surveillance system to find any clues regarding them. 

"What is your problem Felicity?" Thea yelled at Felicity. Roy starts pulling Thea out the door. 

"Come on Thea" Roy said to her with a quite voice. 

"No." Thea tells him. "Do you have a problem with me Felicity?"

"I don't have a problem with you Thea but I have a problem with your father! Because of him, I lost the man I loved! And the worst part about it all I never told him." Felicity picked up her things and started leaving the lair. "If you need anything, call me."

"What was going on between her and Oliver, Roy?" Thea asked Roy once Felicity left.

The Return pt 1


The news of Oliver not coming back was the worst thing Felicity ever heard in her life. She was at Team Arrow secret hide out and she looked at the picture of Oliver on her computer screen. Diggle had decided to drive Roy to explain Thea what had to her older brother. Felicity looked away from the scene once and looked it. 

She started yelling and picked the computer monitor then throwing it to ground with all her force. She screamed and keep throwing the monitor, the chair and anything she could get her hands on. Felicity feel on to her knee and started to break down crying. 

"He can't be," she kept saying and continued crying while she sat in crattle position. 

Diggle came in and saw what has become on their once neat lair. When he saw her, he ran to his side and hugged and kept repeating to her that everything will be okay. Felicity cried like she has never cried before. Like a part of her had just died tonight.

Happy Little Pill


Troye Sivan is an Australian Youtuber who recent just released a new song called "Happy Little Pill."


I was trying not be biased, so I decided to not ehear anything before the song acutually came out . When I heard he was going to release a song, I actually thought it was going to be like his song OTP, or i thought some kind of upbeat and very pop like. But this song is was very mature and it was catchy beat. It was great and I can't wait for the whole album to come out August 10th (i believe). 

If you haven't heard or listen to Troye Sivan go on youtube and watch his videos. I seriously love that little cutie. 

BYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
