Silver Linings Poem

Fear

Drives you Away
Keeps you Cautious
Leaves You Wondering
Makes You Doubt Yourself
But it also
Gives You Unknown Strength 
 Drives Your Passions
 Makes You Prevail
And Most of All
Leaves you
Victorious

Bull Durham Review


Bull Durham is a classic movie that was filmed in the 80's and it is one of my favorite movies.  This movie is a classic baseball movie and it is full of love and passion and philosophy.  Kevin Costner is the main heavy hitter in this film and he plays the role of Crash Davis.  Crash is a minor league catcher who has had a few days in the show but has been bouncing around in A ball all his career.  Tim Robbins is playing Nuke who is a young wild child with a five cent head and a million dollar arm.  Susan is playing the role of Annie who is a woman that dates one ball player a year and helps him have the best year of his career.  This movie teaches the ins and outs of baseball and helps you understand a little about romance and how to handle yourself in a relationship.  The world of baseball is just like the world of love and you have to understand both to be successful.

Guess Who Review

Yesterday i watched the movie Guess Who for the first time. This movie is rather old but i guess thats where the phrase "old to me new to you " comes into place.  This movie has some heavy hitting actors in it with Zoe Saldana, Ashton Kutcher, and Bernie Mac.  The movie is about an interracial couple coming together and seeing the in laws.  The only problem is the in laws doesnt know that the black daughter has a white fiancee.  They plan to tell the family over the weekend but there's only one problem, the dad, Bernie Mac, is not accepting.  Ashton Kutcher is really trying to impress his future father in law but it seems as if nothing is really working and through some trials and tribulations they find themselves stuck together.  Over some Vodka and some football they come to an understanding and Bernie mac realizes that this is a good matchup for his daughter.  A nice ending comes together and it is a revelation. Great Flick for the whole family minus the children under 12.  Some Crude humor but it takes an adult to understand it.

10 Day Review

Chance The Rapper 10 Day Mixtape

10 Day was a mixtape by Chance the Rapper that he created while he was on a 10-Day suspension from his high school.  The album comes with a lot of okay songs but there was at least two singles that stood out from every other one, Juke-Juke and F you tahm bout.  Both of these songs are "turnup" songs but one is slow and another is relatively steady but faster than the other.  Juke Juke is my personal favorite because Chance uses a lot of play on words and speeds up and slows down his flow in a unique way.  The beat is originated from one of Biggie Smalls singles and it is transformed into Chance's beat.  It gives the song life and it allows the people listening to dance if they want to hint "Juke Juke"

ABC 123

Among the trials and tribulations of a teenager, a boy named Brian is emerged into a champion.
Brian is a pretty unique teenager but he went through a rough childhood which lead to his social awkwardness throughout high school.
Crooksville High is the high school Brian attends, the mascot is a champion
During Brian's attendance at Crooksville, one of the tasks he has to complete before graduation is an essay on what a champion is and where you can find one.
Everyone at the High School has to write the essay before they graduate.
For Brian, this was indeed a very hard task to complete
Going to school was the least of Brian's worries, he was more concerned with his lack of popularity
His mind was telling him to fit in while his real concern should have been getting this essay done
I believe in Brian's mind, he didn't feel like he was a champion
Just think in Brian's perspective, how can you write about how you became something you're not
Kingberry Fisher is the principal at Crooksville High
Lowkey though, Mr Fisher is Brian's Dad
Mr Fisher has never told Brian about who his real father is and his mother wants to keep it that way
Now that Brian is about to become an adult, Mr Fisher wants to tell Brian
Only problem is that Brian has been told his whole life that his father died in a car accident
Pretty much the main problem is no one knows how Brian is going to react
Quality over Quantity is what his Brian's mother told him growing up
Really she meant that it doesn't matter how many parents you have but that you have a good one
Since Brian has grown up without a father that has been one of the reasons that led to his social problems
The time has come for Brian to graduate and he is almost finished with his essay
Usually the essays go to the teachers and they get sent to administration to see how they progress from starting at Crooks and ending there.
Vashon, Brian's teacher is told to give Brian's essay to Mr Fisher directly for evaluation
When Mr Fisher finally gets the essay, he realizes that he doesn't need to tell Brian the truth
Xylophones play in the background
Years pass on and Brian has emerged into the champion he's always wanted to be
Zuma beach is close to his house, he has a great family, and most of all he is successful

Last Vegas Review

Last Vegas was a Revelation.  With the Big name Actors involved in one last bachelor party for the group and a time of forgiveness and trials, this movie was excellent.  I personally saw the movie twice and loved it better the second time.  It had comedy, drama, and a little bit of crude humor(which i love).  Morgan Freeman played the peace keeper while Robert and Michael were beefing.  All in All its VEGAS!!! And Everyone knows what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas! The guys go out and have some fun and even get a little creative along the way.  Its almost like an old Project X or something of that nature lol.  Everyone needs to go check this movie out i give it Four out of Five stars and this is indeed a classic.  Great Flick for the teens and Above!!!
