Easter Nails

So for this Easter I had to chose a color that fit the pastel Easter color scheme so I went with OPI "Don't Be A Budapest." It's been a while since I've done this color and since it's a light purple it fit perfectly. Since my first coat was thin, I ended up putting on 3 coats so it wasn't as see through.

Movie Review: Insurgent

Hey guys! I know my page is mostly about nail polish but there are also other things I like too! Figured that I would try doing posts about other things along with posts about nail polish so hopefully it's okay with you all.

Insurgent came out on March 20th and of course I just had to see it that very night though I went to a late 9:45pm showing! My overall reaction and thought of the movie: I loved it. I've seen a number of people not like the movie and don't agree with the fact that it isn't strictly like the book. From my memory, I read the Divergent series a year and a half ago, there were a good number of things from the book that were in the movie. I don't want to spoil anything for anybody but I know that there were some questions about the scene with the box and from what I remember, that was part of it. I think the CGI usage was good as well and I tried to remember that the books are based on a very far in the future Chicago. In my mind I would be kind of upset if they didn't use the technology aspect to their advantage and I think the movie did that. Based on what I've seen other people post, I do think that there was a lot more focus on Tris than other characters and you can't help but love Peter's character. The simulations that occurred in the movie, those I don't remember being in the book but I do think that it added to the movie and some of them were confusing but it happens.

It's hard to discuss things from the movie while trying to make a spoiler free post but I do think that if you're going to see the movie, that I would go in with an open mind. I really do understand where a lot of people are coming from when it comes to keep movies just like the books are. I wish that would be a possibility and if there was an unlimited budget and authors had 100% say in everything that that would be the situation. One key to remember, in my opinion, is that there are just some things that aren't possible to do in a movie because of money reasons or it might be too hard to try and recreate. With Insurgent, I think that they did a good job with what they did and that the movie was still enjoyable and I really did like it.

Neve by Zoya

Blue, blue, blue. Can't help but always have a blue nail polish on every other week because it's one of my favorite colors (duh). It's been a while since I've gotten a new post so let's get to work and start on some nail photos! "Neve" by Zoya is a great blue color that is becoming one of my favorites, it just has something about it that grabs me. It's one of those colors that isn't too dark and not too light but seems to be more in the middle. It goes one nicely and I'm always amazed to see what a difference there is between one coat and two coats.

New Years Eve!

It's currently the morning of New Years Eve and although I would love to share my exciting plans with you guys, I have none! After working for half the day today, I plan on getting into my comfy clothes and parking my butt onto my couch for the night. Though I do want to share with you all some of the things that I am going to attempt and hoping to achieve for the new year! First off, one of my goals is to make sure I blog at least once a week. Currently I am on winter break from school but starting January 12th, it's back on again. This is always an energy drainer for me but that brings me to my next goal. Secondly, I have one word, ORGANIZATION! This has been one of my biggest things that I have been horribly failing at and have never been too organized in my life, ever, actually. But the end of this year has brought the joy of moving to me, which I don't want to do again for a long time!, so that was a big obstacle for me. Third, well this one requires the boyfriend and I to actually go get our ID cards for our community center but after that, it's getting back into the gym! I had a good few months where I was going to the gym twice a week and eating better than I am right now but then, of course, school started again and I was beyond wiped out and exhausted that I stopped going. Hopefully now that I have a partner-in-crime my butt will be in the gym more even with school going on. Fourth, but of course not the completely last goal..for now, is to stop being lazy and start getting myself going on trying to get myself further into my career. I mean I won't be done with school completely for at least another 4 years but my one program will, hopefully, be done soon and I need to start getting myself out there. This means stop hesitating to send emails out to professors asking them questions about what I am supposed to do and stop expecting things to come my way because, clearly, they still haven't. So far these are some of the goals I have for the year and I'm going to take them one step at a time. This probably means Pinterest because who doesn't love Pinterest and there are so many great pins that are really helpful. NOW, I want to hear from YOU about some of the goals you have for this new year. You can leave them in the comments below, Tweet at me, Instagram me, email me, whatever is easiest for you! See you guys next year!
