Law Abiding Citizen

October 23rd, 2009 |

law_abiding_citizen

I am not usually a movie go-er, but I came across an old movie pass that was admission for two plus free drinks and popcorn! I’m thinking, “Wicked!”. Me and my buddy decided to check out “Law Abiding Citizen”. We didn’t really know the plot line, but it looked promising. Now this movie is described as a thriller and you best believe it is. I can’t even count the times I screamed out in the theater!! LOL! I just loved this film so much and I usually don’t leave a movie talking about it the next day or even blogging about it!

I can give you a full-out plot description, but I’ll do you one better. Here is the trailer. I don’t even think the trailer does the movie justice! If you like guns, action, corruption, and gore, this one is for you!

Music from the Canucks!

September 25th, 2009 |

As a Canadian girl, I am always excited to see other canucks (nickname for Canadians) step up with their game. Here is the latest video from Drake called “Forever”. It is just one of those songs that I can relate to. Enjoy!

Jamila B. Remembering Aaliyah

August 25th, 2009 |

aaliyah

Today marks the 8th year that Aaliyah has been gone. I can’t believe it has been that long. Aaliyah has been an artist I admired a lot. There has been many talent shows where I danced and sang her songs. I always liked how she had trippy sounds in her music with Timbaland…I guess that is where I got my love for intricate vibes. She had a style of her own and no one has captured it truly since.

I was so upset when I heard the news about Aaliyah’s death. Aaliyah’s passing hit hard since I was really getting into her new music. It is crazy that she left the world so young, basically at my age.

I guess as we get older, we are going to see more and more of our favourite artists leave us. One thing that is great about music is that it will always be left behind for us to remember and enjoy.

Rest in Peace Aaliyah.

Usain Strikes Again!

August 16th, 2009 |

usain

You know you’re good when you can beat your own world record! Usain Bolt who hails from Jamaica, smoked the race track today in the 100 metre dash at the 12th World Championships  in Berlin at an amazing 9.58 seconds. He stunned me last year at the Olympics and he’s doing it again. I ran track back in high school, but I won’t even say what my time was for the 100 metres. :) Check out the footage of the race below if you missed it!

Jeremih – Imaa Star

August 2nd, 2009 |

I just saw this video and thought it was funny. I liked how Jeremih flipped the video concept. Before I saw the video, I was actually going to spoof it, but it seems like he did that already! You can find out more about Jeremih at http://www.jeremihmusic.com. He reminds me of Slim from the group 112, my favourite!
