Nail Designs



Hey you guys! I'm gonna talk about different nail designs. I love doing doing my nails...but i'm not the best at them :( I usually spend 2 hours doing a design... But doing nails are sooooooo much fun so I'm gonna post some pictures of designs you can do.


These are japanese cherry blossom nails. You just need to put a white french tip (or white background) and put orange dots. Then, you can take a toothpick to make the petals of the flower, and also use it to make branches. 


These are the different social networks put onto nails. You can just put the base coat based on which social network you're doing, and then use a toothpick to make the specific designs.

 

These are splatter paint nails, which look really cool in my opinion. You just need to put a base coat and use a straw to splatter the paint on the nail. Just so it doesn't get on your skin i suggest you put scotch tape on your finger. 


So Christmas is coming soon and  I know i like doing my nails according to the holiday. For these nails all you need to do is put a base red coat and then dip a toothpick into white nail polish to make the designs. 


These are some of my favorite nail designs and how to do them. If you guys want any other different designs, you can go on google images. Also, if you have any cool designs please add them in the comments below. I love to try out different types of nail designs :)

WHERE ARE OUR HARRY POTTER STARS?






This post is going to be devoted to the Harry Potter stars Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Rupert Grint, and Tom Felton. So first Daniel Radcliffe, who was our most famous wizard Harry Potter throughout the eight movies. The first movie that he did after the Harry Potter movies were finished was Women in Black which was a horror movie. Most people say that this ruined his image (i kind of have to agree....), but i think he just wants to stray away from his Harry Potter image (but he will always be Harry Potter to me). He most recently appeared in the thriller drama Kill Your Darlings. The movie revolves around a murder, but that's all i know :P Ok, next is Emma Watson who played most of our favorite character....Hermione Granger, the greatest wizard EVER. The first thing i want to talk about is her appearance. I'm sure we all know about her boy cut hair (did you know that she sometimes had to wear a wig during the filming of Deathly Hallows part 2). She also has piercings on her ear, which in my opinion look really pretty. She appeared in the movie The Perks of Being a Wallflower, which is based on the book. Her most recent movie is The Bling Ring. This movie is about a bunch of high schoolers stealing from famous people's houses...the movie seems pretty good. Next we have Rupert Grint who played the lovable Ron Weasley. His first movie after the Harry Potter series was the Into the White...i don't know too much about this movie so I'm not gonna say much. He bought an ice cream truck which was his childhood dream :) (did you know that he's also afraid of spiders...just like Ron) Last person is Tom Felton. He played the character Draco Malfoy....who everybody seems to hate...especially since he killed Dumbledore (well technically Snape did...but whatever). But we see later that he doesn't really want to be part of the Death Eaters, and later becomes good :) The first movie he did after the Harry Potter series was The Rise of the Planet Apes....which im sure you've all heard of. He also says that if he could play any part in Harry Potter it would Lucius Malfoy or Voldemort (Tom Felton didn't read any of the Harry Potter books when he first went to audition for the role). I personally thought he was the best actor in the series...but that's just me. Anyways, as we can see all of our favorite characters have moved on :(( but hopefully they might get together and make another movie....)

Ender's Game

OMG I JUST SAW THE ENDER'S GAME MOVIE!!!

BTW I SUGGEST U DON'T READ AHEAD IF U HAVEN'T READ THE BOOK OR SEEN THE MOVIE

Ok, so the movie was actually pretty good. They were pretty accurate about everything, and the way i imagined it was how they displayed it in the movie. The battle school and buggers were good. They also got the casting pretty well. The only problem i had with the casting is that the actors were a bit too old. I mean Ender is supposed to be 6, then slowly gets older. But, the actor in this movie looked about 13 or 14. I mean you can understand why : the part was pretty complex, so they need high professional actors, and they couldn't show a progression of age in the amount of time they had to make the movie. However, Valentine, Peter, Petra, Bean, Mazer Rackham (who's face looked awesome with all the tattoos), General Graff,   etc.. all played their respective parts well. But they got everything in the correct order (except Bean came a bit too early). They also missed a few parts, but if they were to include all the parts of the book, they might have to make 2 parts to the movie (and personally for this kind of movie, i don't think that would be necessary). The only major problem i had with  this movie is that they didn't show any parts with Valentine and Peter. I mean they show how Peter was being mean to Ender, and how Valentine was trying to persuade Ender into going to Command school, but they didn't show how they came up with fake identities: Locke and Demosthenes. That would've been  interesting thing to see. The only logical explanation I have for not showing these parts are they didn't have enough time in the movie, otherwise i see no reason why they couldn't put that into the movie. Overall, this movie was pretty good. If you haven't read the book i suggest reading the book first because i think you might enjoy it more and understand it more.But, i hope you guys all go and see it sometime.



oh and Petra and Ender looked really cute together, but they don't become a couple :(

Sea of Monsters Movie

So for this blog post I'm going to talk about the Sea of Monsters movie. I know its been awhile since its come out, but now i'm sure you've all watched the movie, which is based on the second book in the popular series Percy Jackson and the Olympians (btw im sorry about talking Percy Jackson for these last two posts).  So whoever has read the book and then seen the movie you would hopefully agree with me when i say that the movie missed some very key scenes. For starters, they didn't show the scene when Percy and Annabeth get stuck on Circe's island. They also didn't show when Annabeth goes into a trance because of the siren's song and pictures a perfect life when Luke is still good. I know these are some minor parts in the book, but it would be cool to see them on the screen (i mean if they're making a movie out of a FANTASY book they should include some of the other FANTASY things....just saying) Another thing that I wasn't too happy about was some of the minor changes they made to the plot. For instance, Grover is abducted by Luke in the movie, but was searching for Pan in the book. Also, Chiron is present in the movie, but is "missing" in the book. However, there were some good things in the movie as well. They did very good effects with the magical creatures they did include like the Cyclopes (but if they didn't include a cyclopes, then there would be no point to the story....) I personally think they did a pretty good job with the rise of Kronos and the battle that ensues afterwards. Overall, this movie wasn't too bad, but I think they could've done a much better job. If you're trying to make a book into a movie at least try to include most of the scenes. (even though i talked about how much they messed up, i still hope they make the third book, The Titan's Curse).

HOUSE OF HADES

OMG, I FINISHED HOUSE OF HADES!!!! ok well i actually finished a long time ago, but im making a post about it now. Hopefully you have all read the book by now. If not then drop everything you're doing and read the book.









Anyways, there are so many couples and they are all soooooooooooooooooo amazing :) So first couple is Percebeth. They both have fallen into Tartarus, and they both must survive and reach the Doors of Death. On the way they meet a Titan named Bob...who is the most amazing person EVER. But he sacrifices himself so Percy and Annabeth can go back to the world. But Percy and Annabeth have been helping each other and saving each other and its just soooooooooooooooo cute :) Ok next is Jason and Piper. There's not much of them mentioned in the story. Well, i mean it talks about them, but not so much as a couple, more individually. But u can tell they are more comfortable around each other. There's Hazel and Frank as well. I think there case is kind of the same as Jason and Piper's. However, you can see Hazel discovering her new talent, and Frank seems to be more confident about himself (unlike how we saw in the Son of Neptune). There's also Leo and Calypso. They start out hating each other, but they eventually like each other...and its amazing!!! Leo promises to come back for Calypso...but so did Percy, so i don't know. But Percy didn't like Calypso like Leo does, so there's a slight chance that he can possibly come back for her. Now there's Nico. We find out in this book that he is gay....which is totally fine. He likes Percy, but Percy is with Annabeth. And i would've shipped them, but Percy and Annabeth are the BEST couple ever. Ok, now i'm done ranting about all the couples. The best thing about this book is that there is no cliffhanger...YAY!!!! But we still have to wait a year for the next book, which is called Bloods of Olympus. Based on the title, im guessing that this is the last book, and they defeat Gaea. Hopefully Rick Riordian will come up with another series soon :)
