NETFLIX SHOW REVIEWS!

Good Morning Call (2014) - This is a Fuji TV & Netflix original series. This 17-episode Japanese OVA is based on the manga series of the same name. It tells the story of Nao and Uehara, two students for various popularities, who secretly live together during the school year which is forbidden. Secrets are kept by their friends and families. Throughout their stay together, they learn a lot from each other and they eventually fall in love, along with not being able to live without each other. My Thoughts: I have always been a fan of Japanese entertainment since I was growing up. I do have a sensei who I am still close with today. This show is just a lot of fun and a great story is behind it too. You can feel the magic between these two characters and the actors who portray Nao and Uehara are amazing. The supporting cast is wonderful as well, which they bring the humor, tension and even the high-stress changes when it comes to these two. There is a sequel series right now with the manga and I hope they do a series on that because I truly enjoyed this show. If you have Netflix and are a fan of a beautiful Japanese story, check this one out. Good Morning Call - 4 out of 4 stars

So, it has been quite a while since I posted or wrote anything on the blog. Well, life has been taking over. I have been working all the time, working out and dieting, and even spending a good amount of time with friends. The blog was only for when I had time and time has flown by really. I will definitely update more since it is now the summer and not only that, things have been changing in my life. I have gotten a promotion and a few raises since I started my job officially one year ago. I am happy and truly blessed with what I have been doing. However, it can be very tiring and can get on my nerves. Besides work, I have been working out and going to the gym. Since I have done #MyPeakChallenge ever since the start of February, I have lost over 30 pounds and my body fat has reduced greatly. I am so happy with my new change and I recently got a new hairdo - hair is shorter. My #Outlander family is good as well. They are my sisters for life and we are still talking during this long Droughtlander it seems. With my birthday slowly coming up around the corner, I am not sure what I am going to do for it. My life is changing so dramatically, but it is for the best I will say.

I definitely have some new reviews in the pipeline. I have also been working on my first novel (bits and pieces here, there) and will post some new elements from it as well.

Apologizes for not being on Tumblr much lately, but I am hoping to stick around a little more.

Recently saw these two vampire films and they are absolutely amazing! Check out these films. Out of these two, one is a South Korean film that is not what it seems - it has vampire elements in it but the story is twisted. The other one is a cult classic film that really shows a darker side to vampires and has a love story mixed in. I highly recommend both of these films. Probably will buy these films down the line. Check them out.
