wednesday review on thursday...

So for this week's review I'll be reviewing some truly wonderful/terrible things so let's get started!

1.) Teen Mom (from last week)

The first thing you should know is that Amber and Gary have been back together for an entire week so obviously they are celebrating by buying a house together.  

Ah that look of love.

They decide to take a family vacation and their in-car banter is stimulating...goes something like this:

"Look Amber...pumpkins" 

"Shut the &%#@ up Gary you talk too fast!"

"Amber shut your %$&#*@% mouth!"

"$&%@#$*& Gary you are so annoying!"

Family vacations rock.

Tyler and Catelynn are also getting an apartment together.  Tyler loves powder blue bathrooms and cabinet space.  They find the perfect apartment and proceed to decorate with this

Why yes...that is a giant blanket with their baby's face on it.  All the design rage right now.  

Farrah is still whining.  This time it's about being a model.  Here she is "modeling"

She also had a heart to heart with her daughter about braised ribs.  If I could count all the times I had girl talk with my mom where we discussed ways to cook meat....good times.

2.) Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2

It was so amazing right!?  I went with my friend Jack and we both cried.  A lot.  It was sad and beautiful and wonderful.  An amazing end to an amazing story.

3.) Lancome Oscillation Intensity mascara - $25

I received this mascara for gratis from Lancome and I wasn't sure about it.  I LOVE their Hypnose Drama mascara and I just didn't think I would like anything as much.  I was wrong!  I'm in love with this new one.  It gives volume but a nice clean separated volume and so easy to use!  If you get the chance stop by your local Lancome counter and give it a try.  You will be amazed.

That's all for my reviews this week!  I hope you enjoy them!  And just remember who is watching over you...

Sleep well....

wednesday review

I decided that I would review some items for you today.  First of all I'd like to share with you a dream I had last night where my leg hair was so long I had to cut it with scissors.  It was like...long blonde horse hair all over my legs.  Needless to say...I shaved today.
Also this lady (on the right of course)

aka my best friend Beth, is in town this week!  We spent last night trolling around yelling at people from the car.  Just like we did when we were 19.  Some things (thankfully) never change.

Anyway back to the reviewing....
First item(s) on review...I re-discovered how awesome Redbox is.  I have Netflix but I always forget to send my movies back.  I still have "The Back Up Plan" so if that tells you how long it's been...(cough august 2010 cough cough cough)
Anyway...I recently saw the following movies and here are my reviews.

I Am Number 4

I didn't know how I would feel about this movie but I ended up LOVING it and watching it 3 times.  It was so so good and I highly recommend it.  It's good for both guys and girls...action and romance.

Beastly

This is the remake of "Beauty and the Beast"...Mary Kate Olsen was in it and her character scared me a little bit and I kept waiting for her to say "you got it dude!" (cue the laughter at my hilarious throwback to Full House joke).  Vanessa Hudgens is also in it and I kept waiting for her to not be....I don't like her.  All in all it was decent.  It's a good movie for girls night.

The Roommate

This was the stupidest movie I've seen in a long time.  Anti-climatic, lame dialogue...you get the idea.  This movie is best for never.

Just Go With It

Very very funny movie and I normally don't care for Adam Sandler.  Good job guys.  This is a great movie to watch with you Mom and little sister....because that's who I watched it with.

Now I'd like to review my absolute favorite lotion of all time
Drenched in Pink by Victoria Secret

Seriously the best lotion ever and I have to say thank you to my friend Rhiannon for introducing me to it.

And last but not least...the Casey Anthony trial.
All I have to say is this...

Following reasons as to why I feel this way
- What parent takes 31 days to call police when their child goes missing???
- There was a full on frozen Stouffer's meal found in her car...umm..what the eff?  I convict her just for that.
- She made up a nanny named Zanny...similar to Dwight making up a dentist named Crentist.



Lady justice wept at that verdict.

That's all for your reviews today!  I hope this is helpful in all your future movie watching, lotion applying, and Nancy Grace viewing.

Bye!

star ratings (it's new)

guys!  I've been like...the lamest blogger of all time lately I know!  But mostly it's because of work.  We are gearing up for our summer gift with purchase over at good ol Lancome and I'm busy!  Most days I feel like a factory worker in pre-revolutionary Russia.  It's just been insane.
But fear not because I am here to give you some REVIEWS on some things I've purchased recently.  I'm doing this for the following reasons:
1. I have bought a lot of new stuff lately
2. It saves you from having to spend money (aren't I the greatest?)
3. I needed something to post about and I figured y'all were sick of my playlists

So here we go!

Jergens Natural Glow Foaming Daily Moisturizer

I am white.  Like...super white.  So I've always needed these but dreaded using them at the same time to avoid the "hey why do you look like Snooki" questions.  I must say I really really like this one.  It goes on very easily and a little goes a LONG way so don't get excited like I did and then have to spend a good 20 minutes trying to find an area to apply the excess....(y'all would die if you saw the streaks on my upper thighs right now....) I will say that it says you'll get "gradual color" and then full results in a week.  I saw full results in one day.  To quote my Mom when I told her of this phenomena "maybe you're like...missing something in your DNA".  Thanks Mom.
Star Rating: 4.5
(I guess my scale is out of a 5...just made that up this second)

Banana Nut Cheerios

I LOVE Cheerios.  I always put cut up fruit in my Cheerios like strawberries, blueberries, and yes BANANAS.  So I was excited to see that this might save me a step.  Yes it was pretty good but still no where near as good as fresh bananas...to quote my Mom: "fruit doesn't even really belong in cereal"
Star Rating: 3

Troop Beverly Hills

Who remembers this movie!?  (jen I'm talking to you here....)  Such a classic.  Bought on Amazon.com for $5.49.  To quote my Mom again "it's not even worth that much"
Star Rating: 5

lovestrong: Christina Perri

Stop what  you are doing right now and go download this album.  It is beautiful.  I would put it up there with Adele's 21 as being one of the best albums released this year. To quote my Mom: "Isn't she the girl who sang that song that they did a dance to on So You Think You Can Dance?"
Star Rating: 7

Last but not least I'd like to rate one more thing.
My Mom

Happy late Mother's Day to the woman who has been staying up until 1 AM every night for the last week trying to beat my score in Bejeweled Blitz.  Better luck next week
Star Rating: 10
Side Note: this picture was taken circa 1991....hence the....everything.
