Meet Me on Monday #28

Monday, December 27th, 2010 | General with 5 Comments

I found this meme on another blog and tracked it back to the originator. There are some interesting questions and a great way to know me a little more. You can check it out at Meet Me on Monday Meme. Here goes…

1. What are your New Year’s Eve plans?
I will be with friends as we are going to be doing our Christmas exchange as well as cheer on New Years because they were out of town the weekend of Christmas.

2. How tall are you?
5’8″

3. What is your favorite pudding flavor?
It is a toss up between butterscotch and chocolate fudge but so long as there are some bananas in it I don’t think the flavor matters much :)

4. What room of the house do you blog the most in?
Living room only because the bigger TV is down here as well as my laptop, otherwise I’m upstairs at my desktop.

5. What is your best physical feature?
May not what others think but I love the color of my blue eyes especially when out in the sun because they are almost white in the center and a really dark blue around the edges.

Harry Potter 7 – Part 1

Sunday, December 26th, 2010 | General with 1 Comment

I’m so behind on my movie lists. I have a few more to go but this one was a biggy. I love the Harry Potter series. I have all the books and have read them all before the movies came out because I like to get the real facts beforehand. We all know movies cannot put every single detail from the books in them and sometimes have different twists than what we are used to.

Not the Harry Potter movies, in my opinion, because the author has a hand in what is being written. I am glad they made book 7 into two movies because there was no way to cram everything in just one. They ended up stopping part 1 at an epic part as I was on the end of my seat when it came about. I wasn’t too crazy about them not being in Hogwart’s but got over that soon enough. I also think that Harry has the most powerful wand instead of Voldemort. Don’t ask me how, that’s just my opinion. Definitely worth going to see.

A++

1. What will your Christmas dinner consist of?
Probably a frozen dinner or a sandwich.

2. Do you watch commercials or flip through the channels?
Most of the time I’ll flip channels when a commercial comes on unless either the remote is too far to reach or I am already surfing on the net and don’t really pay attention.

3. How long will you leave your Christmas decorations up?
I do not put up any Christmas decorations so this is N/A.

4. What movie makes you cry every time you watch it?
Hmm, can’t really say that any do considering I like the action, murder mystery, sci-fi movies.

5. Do you have a Facebook?
Not only no but HAIL no…

Christmas Gifts

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of LG. All opinions are 100% mine.

You know this year is all about the electronics. I was actually in line on Black Friday wanting to get a 40" TV for $298.00 and that didn't happen. They were all out by the time I got into the store. Never again. Have no fear though there are plenty of smartphones out there to choose from and a great Christmas gift. I'm sure tons of my friends will come back after Christmas with shiny new phones that I may be jealous about. I'd be getting myself a new phone for Christmas too but the one that I want isn't in stock with the company that I use.

LG Optimus 7 could be that phone for the ones who want a touch screen phone and have an operating system other than Android which honestly I am sick of hearing about. The LG Optimus 7 has Windows Phone OS 7, 16 GB of internal memory which I am soo jealous of, a 5 MP camera which I am also jealous of. The LG is also WiFi capable of using bands b/g/n. Mine just has the capability of b/g. I'm beginning to wonder my choice of phone now. The chipset alone called "Snapdragon" is a 1 GHz processor. Yet another thing faster than my own smartphone. This is becoming depressing for me now. How many of you can say you have a better phone than this? Probably not many, if any, but some might be able to say equal as you have this phone. Way to go for those people. Can I borrow it?

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. Does he even have it like that in the credits anymore? Aaand, I just answered my own question looking at the poster lol. I never watched wrestling but know he did wrestle from all the commercials I see. I never understood what the draw was to it but I think he’s made a name for himself in Hollywood as a solid actor.

Johnson is an ex-con who sets out to avenge his brothers murder after he has served his time in jail. He was the wheel man – is that right? – on this heist his brother and friends did at a bank. He’s being tracked by a drug addled almost retired cop who is Billy Bob Thorton who just so happened to have been married to the girl who snitched on Johnson’s crew who were all murdered.

Lots of action. I liked it a lot. I give it an A.
