Blood Diamond (2006)

 this movie was watched on December 29th 2023.

This has been one of the best Leonardo DiCaprio movies I've seen in a while and the guy that played Solomon did an amazing job as well and so did Connolly.

I really love DiCaprio's accent in this movie.

The movie with taste very very well considering it has a run time of 2 hours and 23 minutes.

The action in this movie was pretty amazing as well and I would definitely watch this movie again and recommend it I would give this an 8 out of 10 or 4 out of five stars and I will see you all in the next review

The Departed (2006)

 

This movie was watched on December 29th 2023.

I am not going to lie I did not realize how it started the cast was for this movie and it was a surprise to see Anthony Anderson in the movie as well.

I really love Jack Nicholson in this role.

I will like to say though I think the flip phone thing was getting annoying after a little while the only issue I had with this movie also is it played like I was reading an audiobook.

Leonardo DiCaprio was really good in this role as well so with Mark Wahlberg and Matt Damon and everybody else did well with their roles as well.

This is a very good movie and I will watch it again sometime in the future so I do recommend everybody to watch it at least once in their life and I would give the movie a solid 8 out of 10 or 3 out of 5 stars.

And I will see you all in the next review

John Wick Chapter 3: ParaBellum

 This movie was watched on December 24th 2023.

The action fights to start this movie was just amazing especially the knives scene.

It was a surprise to see Halle Berry in the movie as she does look really good.

The fight scenes of this movie are amazing but I feel throughout the whole series they basically use the same fight scene moves. But as far as the first three movies go I will definitely watch these again in the future because the movies were amazing and I feel out of the first three that I watched this one had the best action fight scenes in my opinion I also can't imagine how much physical energy it took to film these movies. And like I said before Keanu Reeves was the only person perfect for this role I personally think nobody else could have done it better.

I do recommend this movie if you have not ever seen it before and I would give it a 8 out of 10 and a four out of five stars and I will see you all in the next review which will either be The Departed or Blood Diamond.

John Wick Chapter 2 (2017)

 This Movie was watched on December 24th 2023.

As I said in the first movie what a sweet Mustang to drive it sucks that he ruined it.

I really love how the series decided to go International.

The action just continues to be amazing with all of the fight scenes the movie Time Wise also played really quick in my opinion it did not feel like a 2-hour movie and this movie was just as good as the first one.

Keanu Reeves did a fantastic job again and it was awesome to see Laurence Fishburne and another movie with Keanu Reeves and I also did like this movie just a little bit more than the first one so I actually can't wait until I can watch the third one which that will be the next review after this one as well. Everybody played their roles very well in this movie and the doggy is so cute also.

I would definitely recommend this movie also if you have never seen it and I definitely will watch this again in the future so I give it a 9 out of 10 or 5 out of 5 stars and I will see you all in the next review.

John Wick ( 2014)

 

This movie was watched on December 24th 2023.

First I would like to say what a sweet mustang that he drives.

I really love the cinematography in this movie. The movie has amazing action.

Keanu Reeves was perfect for the throne and I don't think anybody else could have done it as good as he made it look.

The movie plays very well following along with all of the amazing fights and action scenes.

This movie was really amazing and I could see myself watching it again in the future and I would definitely recommend this movie from you have never seen it before and I would give it a 9 out of 10 or 5 out of five stars and I will see everybody in the next review and the next review will probably be John Wick chapter 2

Mockingbird don't sing (2001)

 

This movie was watched on December 22nd 2023.

I would also like to state that this movie is based on true and actual events so if you were discretion is highly advised.

I would also first like to say that this movie was kind of hard to watch and I cannot believe what this girl could have gone through for her first 12 to 13 years how could anybody do that to their child.

I give Tarra steele who plays Katie so well especially for being cast at 11 years old for this role.

The Cinematography was done really well for this movie and the movie did not feel too dark even for the topic that this movie was covering and all the other actors in this movie did an amazing job as well and I would recommend this movie but like I said in the beginning viewer discretion is highly advised just because of what this movie covers and I would rate the movie in 9 out of 10 or 4 out of 5 stars and I will see you all in the next one.

Gretel & Hansel (2020)

 

This movie was watched on Friday December 22nd 2023.

I would like to start this review off by stating that the visuals in this movie are beyond stunning and amazing. 

Sophia Lillis does an amazing job playing her role as Gretel.  I will say though this movie is alot darker then I thought it would be and it kinda makes me feel like I'm watching a I'm Burton esque movie and yes I do get it that it is supposed to be a dark movie because it's a thriller / horror movie.

Samuel Leakey also did an amazing job at his role of Hansel.  This movie is beautifully shot as well in the cinematography is amazing and I just still can't get over how amazing and stunning the visuals are it fits the movie so well.

Even though I did not watch this movie back when it first came out though I feel like this movie would have done a lot better if it was released around Halloween instead of being dumped in January. I also feel that this movie could have gone to the 2-hour mark so we could have gotten more of the story.

I would definitely give this movie a recommendation and I would give it a solid 7 out of 10 and 3 out of 5 stars and I will see you all in the next review.

Sonic the Hedgehog movie (2020)

 This movie was watched on Thursday December 21st 2023

Now when I first heard this was going to be a movie I was kind of scared at first because I don't know how they would be able to turn it into a movie but at the same token I am kind of glad they turned these into movies because I enjoy the Nostalgia of Sonic especially with all the video games.

I would first off like to say that Jim Carrey is perfect for Dr Robotnik he played the role perfectly.

I especially enjoyed all of the technology that Dr Robotnik used as well.

This movie is definitely more toward for kids but I definitely enjoyed the Nostalgia vibe from the movie and I really enjoyed the cinematography of the movie as well everybody on the cast played their roles very well also so I would give this movie an 8 out of 10 or a three out of five stars I would definitely watch it again if I want to feel nostalgic

I will see you all in the next review

The Hurt Locker (2008)

 I watched this movie on December 20th 2023

ive been wanting to watch this movie for the longest time and now finally have the chance to watch it for the first time.

I would definitely like to say first that Jeremy Renner and Anthony Mackie were perfect for these roles.

It's so astonishing to see what our military goes through on a daily basis and I think this movie shows it off perfectly of what they go through everyday.

The cinematography is very well done and executed. The rest of the cast of the movie also did an amazing job and with the cinematography I think this was the best way to shoot the movie and I don't think any other way would have worked in my opinion.

This is one of the better military movies in my opinion but I do feel I would only watch this movie once every blue moon even though it is really good.

I also like how deep the personal stories go as well because it shows it we are all human and I really like that aspect of the movie.

So in the end I would probably give this movie a solid 8 out of 10 or 4 out of 5 stars and I will see you all in the next review

As Far as they Can Run (2022) Movie

 

This movie is very powerful and very well done and especially hits home for me because I used to do special Olympics and be around alot of people with different types of disabilities.

I would highly recommend this movie as everyone should atleast watch the movie.

This movie is also very inspiring because it shows what all of the parents, coaches and volunteers go through to help all of the special Olympians.

I am not sure what else I can say about this movie but it does show the sacrifice that we do make for people with disability like I said I highly recommend this movie and I would give it an 8 out of 10 or four out of five stars and I will see you all in the next review

Truly Disgusted.....

 

As we come close to 2024 I make this a goal every year but it always fails and that goal is to lose weight I had my 6 months check up with my primary care physician yesterday and let's just say I am truly disgusted with my current weight at the moment when I last saw him 6 months ago I was 389 as we move up 6 months I am now 402 which is unacceptable ain't done right disgusting.

I am definitely going to be moving forward to get more healthy and I think I am going to look into intermittent fasting to help me lose weight lose weight and I will do a lot more walking and definitely drink a lot more water.

I think my goals for losing the weight as of right now are just to watch what I eat and do a lot of walking and drinking water because actually 6 months ago when I left saw my doctor he did refer me to non-surgical weight loss and I'm currently working on the paperwork to get into that hopefully sometime next year which I think will definitely benefit me and when it definitely comes to the walking if I can hit a goal of 5,000 steps each day that would be amazing.

I am also writing this blog post to make sure I keep myself accountable so I can reach my weight loss goals in the future and become more healthy so I can be around for family and to better my health.

Thank you everybody for taking the time to read this and I will see you all in the next post.

Pollo Loco (Short Film)

First off just let me get it out of the way this is a movie I highly recommend everybody watch it is a very well put together short movie with a runtime I think of about 20 minutes but I think this movie would be even better as a full-fledged movie.

It was written really by Derek Bauder who actually also stars in the movie.

All of the actors did a very good job especially for this being almost as like a suspense thriller it was very well played out the music was amazing in the movie it was shot very well truth to be told I basically have nothing bad to say about this movie I'm even having a hard time thinking of stuff to say about the movie that's how good it was in my opinion and I think I would definitely like to see a sequel to it or even if it becomes a much bigger bigger box office movie.

So I definitely recommend this movie and I would rate it a 9 out of 10.

 

Is 40 really the new 20?

I guess you could say that we've all heard this saying that 40 is the new 20 but is that really true? I guess I am going to find out since I just turned 40 on December 8th.

I feel like that I'm at a point in my life where I'm starting to slowly think about things before I do them yes I still have all of my same bad habits but they can be worked on and I feel I am learning to take things a lot more serious especially when things do not go my way and with whatever the consequences may be but I feel like I am definitely starting to head in the right direction because I finally got a but I do plan on making my goals now for the future and that will be the next post that I make I'm sorry I don't post as often but I do try and I think everybody who comes here to read all my posts and especially my reviews or comes and hangs out in my twitch stream packet from Summa non-surgical weight loss to go through with to make sure I can lose weight so I can live a long and healthy life and be here for my niece and nephew and my family.

As most of you know from the one countdown timer on the blog that says smlc that stands for since my last cigarette and the one before the one I just put up that was over 100 days that was actually a lie I never quit smoking because of stress but the current one that is up is correct and I am forcing myself to stop because I need to stop that expensive and disgusting habit.

I'm just at a point in my life where I need to take care of myself and be me whether if you disagree with me or not I need to be who I am and I need to take back control of my life before it gets out of control especially now that I just hit 40.

I also want to do this for my life like I said so I can be around for my family and also so I hopefully done the line won't have a midlife crisis LOL

So my next post will be goals that I want to accomplish now that I'm 40 and I am sorry that I don't post as often as I usually do but I am trying and I do think everybody who comes here at least to read my reviews and my post it is so much appreciated you don't understand so is 40 really the new 20 I guess I'm going to have to find out before I hit 50.

So I will see you all next time

Culver's Review

I was coming into this review as I have never had culvers in my life up to this point in my life because it was just just too far from where I live but I decided to make the journey down to Canton, Ohio (Belden Village Area) to go and try culvers because I keep seeing advertisements for them. So the score would be a bit higher on my rating but I'm a dummy when it came to finding this place as I got on sarta bus number 45 at 1015am as it departed from the belden village transit center as I was thinking it was going to go by the restaurant and it didn't so I did not get to the restaurant till almost 12pm but I'm putting this on me I'm a dummy and after I finished basically walked all the way back to the belden village transit center but enough of this let's get on with the actual review.

I arrived at culvers just before 12pm and well and hungry so I decided to get the classic butter burger with all the toppings that usually come on it and added sautéed mushrooms and raw onion and the burger was fantastic all of the ingredients were fresh and the burger was extra buttery and delicious and as my side igot the Wisconsin cheese curds with no sauce because I was not sure if I was supposed to use sauce and they were nice and warm and fresh from the fryer and I would definitely get the cheese curds again and as for desert I decided to get a chocolate chip cookie dough concrete made with chocolate ice cream and boy I wish I had gotten a second one as it was that good. 

Now back to the burgerit was so fresh warm and delicious the only thing I could compareĺ it to would be is if I made it at a backyard barbecue  with family it was that good.

As for the restaurant itself it was very clean, net and tidy and looked amazing.

The staff was very friendly and greeted me as soon as I came in and the young lady who was on register was very polite and helpful as this was my first ever time here and had answered all of my questions if I had any.

I think my meal was also reasonably priced it came out to a total of $16.50 which I think is a good deal I think the only thing I would change next time is I would get a single Patty instead of a double.

Let's just say if I'm in the area again I will come back to Culver's because I had an amazing experience and I would definitely recommend this list and on a scale of one to 10 I would give my experience about an 8 out of 10 it would be higher but I'm taking points off for me being a dummy and not being able to find the place.

Boo I'm a Ghost

 

I am officially a Ghost... lol

I decided to give Ghost energy a try the other day and boy am I am glad I did and I wish I would have done it sooner because it is so good and it is easy to drink and it's nice and smooth and refreshing especially when it's really cold or over ice. 

I have tried two flavors which are the Orange Cream (pictured above) and the blue raspberry sour patch kid flavors and my definite favorite is the Orange Cream one it is so delicious and creamy and wanna try it with vanilla ice cream one day which I think would be amazing.

But all in all i give ghost energy a 10/10 and will definitely keep drinking it every now and then.

Quitting Smoking

 

As of today July, 20th 2023 will be the first day for the rest of my life because the decision I am making is not only better for me and my future but I want to be around for my family in this decision is that I am quitting smoking. 

I will need all of the assurance and keeping me accountable for this to work because I know I cannot do this by myself but I got to do this for me, myself, and I and especially for my health in the future as I will be the big forty in december and just like I said I especially want to be around for my family.

I know in the long run that I can do this I just have to stay focused and keep myself busy and I feel this decision will definitely be better for my mental health in the long run as my attempts in the past just did not work. 

Thankfully I do have motivation for doing this and that is my niece and nephew and the rest of my family.

Space Jam: A New Legacy

 

Well, I just watched Space Jam A New legacy for the very first time.

I think we all know it will never be better then the original one with Michael Jordan from 1996 but I do feel this one had a very good message and teaching through which is let your kids be kids and don't push them to be exactly like you or push them to hard.

I thought the movie was alot better then it was going to be it had me laughing throughout most of the movie so I throughly enjoyed it and this would be a movie I would watch once every now and again. 

I also really liked the digital aspect of the movie which was really cool.

As far as the characters I think Don cheadle played the server guy really well and was good and the players they picked for the goon squad was amazing also.

So as I close I would rate this movie A 7.5 out of 10 as I said earlier I would watch this every now and again when I have the chance

The Murder House

 

I just want to say to start off that this is my first ever book review.

I actually finished this book way back at the end of February and meant to review it sooner so that's my fault.

But now for the book in itself it is a very good read and the one thing I like about James Patterson as we all know is his chapters are really short which I really like because I am not someone who reads that fast and this really helped me read the book atareally good pace for when I had time to read,

I feel like the book in the first 25-50 chapters it starts off really slow and then it picks up more toward the end of the book that's just how I read it but it was well detailed in each chapter even when it feltslow in my opinion. The characters are well done also especially as the story gets better and I loved that and that's when I could not put the book down. So in conclusion I would read this book again and I would give it an 8 out of 10 and would recommend it to anyone especially people who like James Patterson books.

If you also want to follow along on what I'm reading check out my Goodreads.

Is it really a Dream World?

 

As I will mention first I am not really a lover of coca cola products except maybe sprite as I prefer everything Pepsi but I got this in a mini 12 pack for free at a food pantry I went to recently so I figured I would try it out as I got it for free and did not want to waste it. 

But first off what is coca cola thinking with all these weird names for their pops? I gotta say its weird and not a good marketing ploy but that's just my opinion and now back to the pop and as you can see this is the zero sugar version and as I went to drink it I got a rush of likeable citrusy mango flavor that was really nice and it was not too overpowering but you can definitely tell this is the Zero sugar version is apparent maybe I need to try the sugar version to compare maybe? But for what this is I would give it a 7.5 out of 10 and may get it again.

It´s Prime Time

As we all know Prime is one of the most popular drinks at the moment and it is really hard to find also so when I was doing my monthly shop back in March I finally saw it and thought that I would give it a try because who knows when I would see it again.

As you can tell by the flavor that I decided to try I decided to try icy pop and when I saw the bottle it made me think of those Bomb Pops from the ice cream trucks from when I was growing up and when I tasted it that's what it tasted like but just melted down into like a Gatorade consistency drink it was good and I would probably give it like a 7 out of 10 but I would probably never buy it again and me personally I think I will just stick with Gatorade and/or Powerade because even though it was really good I thought it had a weird aftertaste so I would give it a would recommend but I would never buy it again. 

2023 Goals

I know I am late to making this post but better late than never right?

This will be my annual yearly goals post and where I go into more detail on each goal.

I have set a few more goals then I usually do because  I wanna be transparent and also have long term goals and short term goals and I think I have 11 goals for the year so far so fair warning this will be a long post but thanks  for being here and reading this and the goals are in no particular order so lets get into it.

1.) To be organized

The reason this is a goal for the years because I am not a very organized person when it comes to anything I am actually a very messy person and I want to work on knowing where stuff is or when I have certain appointments and I feel if I was more organized I would hold myself accountable.

2.) Be less cluttered

This is a goal for to feel more clean and the idea for this goal is like to clean my apartment before I go to bed so I wake up to a less cluttered apartment in the morning no matter how clean or dirty the apartment is and I also feel this goal goes along with number one in being more organized.

3.) Walk 25,000 to 50,000 steps a month for the whole year and this goal is self-explanatory it will lead into goal number five and number nine.

4.) This goal is self-explanatory and I have this on my list every year and that is quit smoking but nothing ever ends up working and I just keep putting it on my list every year but I feel like this could be the year hopefully where I finally stopped smoking.

5.) This goal is also self-explanatory and is also on my list every year in that goal is to lose weight as I said before goal number three coincides with this one as it gets me out for exercise and I also want to lose weight because I will be turning 40 at the end of this year and I want to be around for my nieces and nephews and they are what the motivation is and with this goal I'm going to take it one day at a time.

6.) This goal is just to drink more water and this one is self-explanatory.

7.) To be positive at all times 

I know this goal may seem farfetched but I feel I need to learn how to be positive at all times no matter what life throws at me and the curve balls I get with life because we only have one life to live and need to live it to the fullest and can't live life angry

8 ) Work on Mental Health 

This is the goal I have paid the least attention to over the past 4 or 5 years and it is time I start working on myself and my mental health and taking it seriously my mental health is also why I want to try to become more positive all the time no matter what life throws at me.

9.) Get out and Explore More

I decided to make this a goal for this year because I have not really gone out over the last 2 or 3 years even for walks and I want to get out to explore more because it would be good for my mental health it would also help me get steps in to help me lose weight which are three of my other goals for the year and it's also good thinking space and it's good for fresh air.

10.) Return to Church

I made this a goal because I do want to return the church and make my relationship with Jesus Christ even closer and I have not been to church in about 3 years.

11.) Read some Books 

Out of this whole list this is probably the most far-fetched goal I have for this year but I feel like I should put it on here because I feel I could read some books that can help me with all my goals on this list and maybe I will keep track of them as well on like Goodreads or something

These are all of my current goals for the moment but if I think of any more I will make another post in the future with those goals and I know I did not list it on here but I will also try to start posting a lot more here as I do like blogging because I do find it very therapeutic and I feel I can definitely express myself a lot better when I write or type something down so I want to thank everybody for taking the time to read this and I'm sorry that this post is very long and I will see you all in the next post.

My mental dilemma

 This is a little bit of a different post that you usually see from me

Hi everyone,

First off I hope everybody had a wonderful holiday season and I hope everybody has a amazing 2023.

Now to the contents of this post and warning this might be a long post.

I have been having a little bit of a mental dilemma lately and I am not sure how to handle it and sometimes it makes me cry at night.

Let's get started I am a 39 year old male who likes to cross dress and wear baby stuff including diapers as I am apart of the ABDL community and my dilemma is that I have two Facebook profiles as this one is for my ABDL side and then I have a normal regular profile with family and friends and I am wandering if I should just merge the two together but the only downfall is that my real family and friends don't know about the side of me and I'm kind of afraid of their reaction and I have only told like maybe two or three real life friends that I have other than that I haven't told anybody so my dilemma is I don't know if I should merge the profiles or not or just keep them separate I guess I'm just afraid of their reaction but I feel like I need to be true to myself so right now I'm between a rock and a hard place or if I should just tell my real life family and friends that this is who I am and then just merge the profiles together

And if anybody's curious I want to be an abdl baby girl 24/7 that is my dream goal

I'm sorry for the long post but I just needed to get this off my chest and everybody thank you for taking the time to read this
