Christmas!!

Finally a month and 10 days until Christmas. I know Christmas is still kind of far but I'm just so excited and j can't wait. Honestly Christmas is my favorite holiday because my whole family (mom's side) gets together. We have some of the best time. Some years for Christmas I will either go to New York or my cousins come here to California. We usually have the best time because we're all pretty close and are only a year apart. If I'm in New York my cousins Willy and Mike will take me to Madison Garden to go see people perform or we will go to Times Square. When we're here in LA we usually go to Disneyland and since it doesn't snow here my cousins will play football with me. They play on actual teams while I'm really horrible at it, but I have fun anyways. We usually watch old movies, videos, and go through all the old baby pictures. Christmas is also my favorite time of year cause we don'thave school and I don't have to worry about homework and waking up early. Even though Christmas is still like a month away I'm so excited and can't wait for it to get here.

Hunger Games Movie vs. Book

The Hunger is one of my favorite books. I really love how it shows emotion and action. The movie and book are alike but they have some differences. One difference is that in the book Katniss is given the mocking jay pin by the mayor's daughter, Madge, as a good luck pin. In the beginning of the movie Katniss is given the pin from a sales lady. Another difference is that in the book Katniss's last visitor was Peeta's father but in the movie his father didn't even appear. Another difference I noticed was that the movie didn't show as much emotion as the book. In my opinion I think the book is better is because it tells you what Katniss is thinking while the movie just keeps silent. The book shows a lot more emotion and you can be driven into the story. The movie is good too but I think you enjoy the story more by reading the book. This is something really weird for me because I usually enjoy the movie instead of the book. But in this case it's different. So if you haven't read the book, you should pick it up and read it. I think you'll enjoy it a lot more than the movie.

The Outfield is a new movie coming out on iTunes on Tuesday November 10,2015. You can also pre-order it. The movie stars both Nash Grier and Cameron Dallas. Nash Grier, 17, and Cameron Dallas, 21, are best friends who rose to fame by making vines. Nash is from North Carolina while Cameron is from here in California. They were both put into Maicon where they became best friends and now they live here in LA together. This is the first movie they both star in together. The movie is about choices you have to make after graduating high school. Jack Sanders, Nash, and Frankie Payton, Cameron, are best friends that are in their senior year of high school. They are both amazing baseball players. But Jack also has a hidden talent, he is an amazing artist. Jack has to face the choice of either pursuing a career of baseball or drawing but it isn't easy with everyone telling him what to do. His art teacher wants him to express himself and be an amazing artist. While his coach wants him to go state and become a famous baseball player. All of this causes stress in Jack and he doesn't know what to do. Then there's Frankie. Frankie has to the choice between his baseball career or the love of his life. Everyone is telling him to choose his career and that there's other girls  in the work but Frankie wants to be with her. His baseball coach thinks that the girl is a threat to his career and is only making him slack off. Frankie has to choose between his career or the girl he loves. This movie is filled with drama and many things people can relate to. Som I'm so excited for it to come out next Tuesday so I can watch it.
