Link of the Day: Presenting My New Blog!

The Reading Room:  The Reading Room Presentation

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I would like to share with you one of my own links.  I have started a new blog (I will still be posting on this one) called The Reading Room.  I decided I would like to focus more on book reviews, however since I write them here, I thought I would take a different approach and share my book reviews via video.  I have seen a few product review vlogs (a video blog) and I liked the idea, so I decided to go for it and finally created one.

It will be strictly about book reviews, along with author and book news, and posts will be in the form of a video.  So, the link above is to my new blog, and the video is a short introduction I made up just to say what The Reading Room will be all about.  I hope everyone can check it out, and thank you in advance!

Happy Monday All!

This was cute to watch!  I’m a fan of The Hunger Games but will not be seeing the movie – too afraid it will ruin the books!

What about you?

Happy Monday All!

The first time I saw this video, I laughed so hard I cried.  Maybe you don’t find it that funny, but I thought I would at least put a smile on your face!

I don’t really like the ‘Good Books’ store, but this Ad for them is sweet as hell!

Link of the Day: Solipsist – A Beautiful Experimental Short

Flavorwire:  Watch an Incredibly Gorgeous Experimental Short Film by Andrew Thomas Huang

It’s a little weird, but really pretty.

I’m still trying to figure mine out but what is your interpretation of the film?

Link of the Day: Women Represent!

YouTube:  Beyonce: Run the World (Girls)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I don’t really like this song, however I love the music video and of course Beyonce, and what better way to celebrate International Woman’s Day of 2012 than with this song!

Happy Woman’s Day!  VAMOS CHICAS!

Ocean: The Mischievous Kitty

After I posted today’s Link of the Day, it got me thinking about all my pets at home and how much I miss them, especially my cat Ocean.

He’s about five five years old but still has the mentality of a kitten.  His naughty ways include knocking down his glass bowl every time he wants food (we switched to plastic after 4 times of that), annoying our Boxer Bailey, and as you can see from the video below, sneakily claiming our glasses of water as his own.  

I uploaded this video of Ocean being his mischievous self, and thought that it would give you all a good laugh.

What are some naughty things your pets do?  Let us know in the comment section below!

Link of the Day: Otis

You Tube: Otis – Jay-Z & Kanye West

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I’m putting up a music video link today just because I love this song, video, and of course Mr. Otis Redding (and Jay-Z and Kanye aren’t bad), and I thought I’d share.

Happy Sunday All!

For All You Gleeks

I must admit: I am a Gleek.

I got into the show very late, but I fell in love with the singing, dancing and the creative versions of modern day songs – however, the drama and the “relationships” are getting a little old but I guess there needs to be more than just singing, though I would prefer only that. 

Plus, I respect that the actors actually can sing and dance.  You don’t believe me?

Lea Michele: The National Anthem – She even has the same face during The National Anthem like she does when she sings in Glee!

Amber Riley: Someone Like You – This girl has a VOICE.

Chris Colfer: Glee Audition Tape – Look how cute he looks!  So young!

Must I show more?

So anyway, the point of this post was to share with you one of my newest favorite Glee performances on the show.  I love Santana (Naya Rivera), and I think she’s not only absolutely gorgeous but also has a wonderful voice.

So, this is my favorite “Glee Cast Version” of a song from the latest episode: Mash Off:

Gleek Off!
