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.
