“The X Factor,” a highly anticipated show, was a huge disappointment. Throughout the audition episodes, I did not see anyone I enjoyed listening to. I didn’t find the talent I was hoping to see.

October 27, 2011

This show was one of the best I’d seen in awhile. It made me laugh. Basically, the problem in this episode was Jimmy (Lucas Neff), the main character, was talented when he was younger, but due to an accident, no longer is.

But that’s the beauty of Paranormal Activity 3. It may not have the best plotline or the most unexpected twists,... Read more »

October 6, 2011

When I start seeing the leaves change colors, my main concern is one thing only: What in the world am I going to wear this fall season? Ok, maybe it isn’t the most important item on my list, but it ranks pretty high. And one of the most innovative stores for fashion is, without a doubt, Urban Outfitters.... Read more »
