Christmas Decor (Week 15)

We always take time out of our holiday season to drive around and appreciate the beautiful decorations of this Christmas season. As for our house, we haven't really decorated our house in a few years, or even taken the previous decorations down to be honest. We've had our Christmas lights up for about 2 years now. But in our old neighborhood, everybody took part in some sort of decorating tradition. Our house was usually one of the most celebrated, with deer that moved and lit up, Santa in his sleigh with all 8 reindeer, lights along the roofs, candy canes lining the pathways, snowmen, and everything. Christmas spirit just doesn't mean what it use to it seems. Merry Christmas All.

Top Secret (Week 14)

I arrive at my locker, to find a letter with step by step instructions of a mission I am responsible of accomplishing. The FBI is in the process of a murder investigation, and I could be a very useful asset. They need an unknown face to go undercover as a 4th grader, and become close friends with one of the students. This would be a solo act, to where I get this person (who shall not be named) to invite me into their home. Their mother is a suspect of a mass murder crime committed 6 short months ago. The dad is a suspected accomplice, and they have reason to believe the 4th grader may be a part of it as well. So it is my sworn duty to find whatever information I can on these people.

Thanksgiving Traditions (Week 13)

Our family has never been huge on traditions. However, around this holiday season, we partake in a few ones that I still get excited about. Some of them include:
Every year on Thanksgiving night, the whole family sits down to watch my dad's favorite Christmas Movie, which is "It's a Wonderful Life". The next day is Black Friday. Usually, my sister and I go together with her aunt, but this year she recently had my baby nephew, Jackson, so she is unable to go. Instead of abandoning my tradition of going though, I invited my brother, and may also be going with my best friend since Kindergarten. Lastly, after all the Black Friday shopping is complete, we pick up my niece Lilly, and go to pick up our family Christmas Tree. When we get home, everybody as a family decorates the tree with lights, garland, and ornaments. It's a beautiful annual event, shared between us all.

Ultimate Fireball! (Week 12)

This game can have different levels of intensity and dangerousness. It's quite simple, and vaguely resembles rules combined from Basketball and Bowling. This game is simple, and everyone can win. It probably would be more popular as a recreational sport rather than competitive. People would be taking a great risk when agreeing to participate in this game.
So here it is: you will need lighter fluid, a blow torch, a bowling ball, and a fire extinguisher (in close range), and a basket of some sort to use as the target. The goal is to toss the flaming bowling ball into the basket from an agreed distance before the fire goes out, while simultaneously making sure not to catch your house on fire.
The rules are simple; you douse the ball in lighter fluid, light it up, and away you go… but you gotta be fast, and you gotta be smart… GOOD LUCK!
(I’d like to thank the co creators of Ultimate Fireball- Joey Tribbiani  and Chandler Bing, for giving me the idea)

Bad Advice? (Week 11)

There is one subject that I never seemed to be able to agree with my parents (or most family members) about, and that is my relationship. For the longest time everyone in my family despised my boyfriend. They would constantly feed me what they call "advice", but pretty much just talked bad about the way he "treats me". Many people told me to break up with him, and just wouldn't lay off my back.
Now, it's 3 years later, and we're still going strong. My family has finally come around to the idea, and accept him completely. If I had followed their "advice" in the past, and left him; I would never have experienced so many of the things or feelings that I have in the 3 1/2 years that we've been together.

Monster Mayhem! (Week 10)

"The top 10 Scariest Horror Film Villains/Monsters are competing in the 2013 Monster Mayhem Showdown! If you're just joining us, tune in now for a brief overview of our competition so far:

We saw Carrie take down Jason in a knife throwing contest, and go on to be annihilated by Michael Myers in our Sniper Shootout Challenge.  Michael then took on Freddy Kruger, and lost by a long shot in the race across burning goals. And quite shockingly, we had an appearance from the famous wrestler, Kane (for his part in: See No Evil). Unfortunately, he lost in his first competition, and was removed from the Showdown.

Now that we’re all up to speed, it’s time for our final fight of the night… Our first and only head to head battle to the death… between our top 2 competitors: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Freddy Kruger. Each villain has been given an advantage in this challenge; The Texas Chainsaw Massacre will have the benefit of being provided.. of course.. A chainsaw, while the fight will take place in a burning building, a benefit to Freddy Kruger.

WHO WILL WIN? YOU DECIDE!

MacGruber! (Week 9)

One of my all time favorite movies is definitely Macgruber! I remember the first time I saw it was when my brother, Nate, finally came home for good. We had kind of a movie marathon night with just the two of us. The whole evening we watched all different kinds of movies, from Horror to Comedy to Drama. Macgruber manages to make me laugh harder than almost any other movie I've ever seen. I just love some of the quotes that are in this movie. Some including: “I peed my pants…. I peed ‘em..” (Vicki St. Elmo), “Let’s go pound some Cunth” (MacGruber), and, “Shut your butt!” (MacGruber).
