Top 5 of Life: January 2018

Monday, January 22, 2018

IT’S THE FIRST TOP 5 OF 2018!! I hope everyone is keeping to their resolutions and if their not, I’m with them right now. And now, here’s the fan favorite Top 5!

1) Lady Bird. Now, this is an indie movie but it’s getting nominated this award season for all kinds of awards. And it should win all of them. I saw this movie with my mom and we literally traveled to see it. It’s not as funny as the adverts show but more heart-wrenching. I cried through the whole second half of it. I definitely connected with it. Not a movie for certain people who think indie movies are boring. My dad would not like it, in all honesty. But it was a GREAT film to me.

(Here's a still of the movie with a very cute boy in it)

2) Peanuts. So, I’ve been on a “diet”. Not going the best and I keep fluctuating with my weight during it, which HAS to be bad for my body....but I was always a big night eater. I never ate entire meals, but just a lot of snacks. I decided to get a huge bag of peanuts in the shell and eat them at night during my cravings. Now, I eat the shell if it too which is not healthier than just eating the inside. But it’s better than eating tons of chocolate or carbs! Plus, I can’t stop eating them...they’re addicting!


3) The Greatest Showman soundtrack. I saw this movie the other day and went in the theater, not even knowing the premise. I knew they sang a bit, but I didn’t even know it was a musical, either. But it turned out to be SO GOOD! And I normally dislike musicals. The soundtrack was one of the best I’ve heard in a while and it had my toes tapping through all of it. I’m currently listening to it on Spotify right now. “The Greatest Show” is currently my favorite song. 



4) Baking. Most people will think this is weird but I’m here to let you know that I can NOT bake or cook. I’m just so bad at it. Since I’m trying to eat healthier, I’ve been baking a lot because I love my sweets, especially at night. I think only one recipe was actually okay, the rest were terrible. It’s not me, though, it’s the gross healthy ingredients, I swear! But honestly, I’m having a good time doing it. It’s actually fun to me. I’m in no way wanting to be a baker, but I’m enjoying it until I get bored.


5) MY BOOK! I’m going to write another post about it, too, but I wrote and self published a book! It’s an autobiography about my life with mental health and some other mini adventures I’ve had. It’s not for some people, but for other people, I’ve had nothing but amazing reactions, which makes me shocked every time I hear that someone loves it. I’m my own manager and it’s VERY hard and I’ve had some sad days with it, but the other days are just me being so happy about it. If you want to check it out, the link is here: X
