Super Powers





I wish I had some sort of super power. Doesn't everyone? Well in I Am Number Four aliens from another planet have plenty of cool super powers. If you don't like sci-fi you probably won't like this. But there are some great action scenes and some really cool special effects. I would give this film 4 stars. I relaly liked it.

(I forgot to write about this movie after I saw it about a week-ish ago, so my memory is not too fresh...sorry)

I'm looking forward to seeing Red Riding Hood and Beastly.

My Spaz of a Cat Callie

My cat's name is Callie. She is fat, but we love her. We adopted her about a year ago and she is such a spaz! I was trying to video her in the act, but I failed miserably so all you get are pictures. She runs/jumps around like a crazy kitty and always seems to find herself in some sort of mischief. 




Her favorite toy is this little pink stuffed mouse that she has managed to rip to shreds. Maybe she'll get a new one for her b-day in May. When she's not playing with this little mouse she is trying to find new places to explore, the closet, the back patio, the shower, or my personal favorite, the dryer. One day I had left the dryer door open and went to put some clothes in it and start it up. I walked away for about 30 seconds and came back to the dryer because it sounded like there was shoes or rocks in the dryer. When I opened the door to see what it was the cat jumped out and ran and hid under the kitchen table. The poor thing was so scared and hasn't gone near the dryer since. 



But at the end of the day she is so cute and sleeps on top of the couch by me or snuggles with me and Branden in our bed.

I ♥ the 80's


It's no secret that I love everything 80's. And tonight I saw an awesome movie based in the 80's! Take Me Home Tonight is probably one of the funniest movies I've seen in a while. The music was great, the costumes were perfect, and the comedy was on point. They had the perfect actors/actresses for the roles too. I haven't liked Topher Grace in anything since That 70's Show, until now. (Maybe he should stick with period pieces?) I definitely recommend this movie to anyone who loves/likes the 80's, has seen the movie Sixteen Candles, or just likes to laugh.
I give it four stars!

Asian Dinner

I'm not a very good or imaginative cook. I like cooking, but I have a hard time thinking of new ideas. Tonight Branden asked me if I knew how to make fried rice and I laughed. But the more I thought about it the better fried rice sounded. So what did I do? i turned to my trusty friend Google and found a recipe that I really liked. Clicker HERE for recipe. I over cooked the rice some but it was still delicious! I forgot to take a picture for the blog, but next time I'll remember.

Stay tuned for pictures from this weekend's Aloha Festival!

First TIme

I've been wanting to start a blog for a while and now I have one! I'm not too sure what I'll talk about or who will actually want to follow my blog, but that's okay.My name is Mikaela, I'm married with no children, and in about 3 weeks I'll be 24. I work full time and go school part time. I'm hoping to graduate with my bachelor's degree within the next 12 months or less! I love my family and friends. But most of all my loving husband, Branden. He puts up with me and all my craziness. I love movies and watch them all the time. I enjoy many TV shows so I have to record them all just so that I can watch them. (Maybe I'll do some movie/TV reviews on here?) I have a shoe/purse/clothes/make-up addiction that drives my hubby crazy I'm sure. I don't really exercise, but should. Anyone know of any work-outs that can trick me into thinking I'm NOT working out (LOL). I'll put some pictures up soon enough and try to post as often as I can. Please feel free to give me suggestions, comments, or whatever at anytime.
