"We Like To Party! (The Vengabus)" by Vengaboys
What song always makes you feel better?
This song has a great beat to it. It's simple and soothing at the same time.
Amusement parks would use the song for there commercials to get people excited and it was a whole thing.

I woke up with a headache. Just feeling a little downtrodden. I don't feel that I met my personal goals this month.
Maybe I can turn it around later on and make next month just a little better.
Well, I'm going to get dressed and go for a walk.
I hope you have a good day.
I want to get better at writing my media reviews. The problem is that I don’t know in what ways I want them to get better
. So, I’m going to re-read my first 10 and think about what I would make them more enjoyable to read.
I didn't think that we needed another Superman movie. How can we make a story about someone who is almost invincible compelling?
This is a movie that I saw because people were talking about it.
I’ve been a little bored with some of the super hero movies that have been coming out and was ok with not checking this one out in theaters.
But, there was something about it. The word that caught my interest about this movie had hope
. Maybe just because of all the things happening in this world that just feel wrong. I’m a fan of The Boys and Invincible, but I’ve grown tired of immoral super people. We’ve seen that too often and in different ways.
The movie is refreshing in that it doesn’t take the viewer through the origins of the characters. There’s no homework
of other movies and comic books that you need to know in order to enjoy this movie. If you want that, you can do it on your own time.
I feel that the movie does a great job of showing the Man in The Man of Steel. He’s multifaceted while also demonstrating a type of sincerity that I haven’t seen enough of. In other Superman films, it felt as if every problem that he’d face would be fixed by some newly discovered power. This one has to use his brain and the connections that he has with other people in order to save the day.
Ultimately, the movie shows that you do not need to be Superman to be part of making the world a better place.
Overview

This is my One Hundredth post marked as Media Review
! Feel free to check out the media review archives.
Did something just pop?
There! I said it!
This feeling that I’ve been trying to wrestle with. For some reason, I couldn’t put a name to it. My mind didn’t want to. My heart wasn’t prepared for it.
But it has been bubbling up and now I have to admit to myself.
I have heard some people saying that they enjoy some of the changes, and I’m happy for you. What I don’t like is hearing it from people who later admit that they are not using it on their primary phone.
The design team at Apple have made things worse. This new design isn’t for me as a current customer. I don’t have faith that I’ll be someone they think of in the future as I don’t know what this release gives me other than all of my current set of applications with a harder to use interface.
It is never too late to challenge yourself. In fact, I am starting now as an example for those who need it. I have decided to participate in Blaugust this year.
For anyone arriving here for the very first time Blaugust is a month-long event that takes place each August which focuses on blogging primarily and has started to include other forms of serialized content over the last several years.
Our hope is to create a nurturing environment where Veteran bloggers can help those just getting started and the cross-pollination of ideas can create something truly spectacular. Your blog gives you a permanent foothold on the Internet that you own and have complete control of, and that is a really good feeling in the midst of shifting trends.
One of the things that I’ve really enjoyed about having a blog is that I can share it with other people while still having a level of ownership. I understand that there are other tools that can slurp up the content and possibly repurpose it for things that I didn’t intend, but I’m hoping that you take these words and make your life a little better in some way.
So it seems that Liquid Glass isn’t to only sign of bad taste at Apple recently.
I pride myself on being a responsible dog owner. Today, I was yelled at and accused of leaving my dog’s dropping on someone’s yard. The lady said she had a video, but it was only a picture of me walking by with my dog.
It’s made me incredibly angry to be accused of something that I didn’t do. In a weird way, I’m happy to clean up after my dog because I care about the community that I live in and want to set an example.
I understand that the lady is upset. She lives in a spot that I’ve seen many people walking their dogs through. I’m sure some of them have left something behind. I’d be angry about it as well. I was just the one face that she could direct all the anger that’s been built up.
I should just let it go.
But, I’m still angry about it.
Maybe it’s because of all the other things in life that are bleeding into this one issue. I’m not able to separate myself from this feeling.
Going to just take a bath and get back to my life.
How dare you make me feel something! I thought that this was going to be some small show that I'd only have to watch because of TV Family Time, but it really kept me engaged throughout the run.
What was interesting to me was the fact that the author of the book it is based on, Emily Jenkins, used Scrivener to help with managing the flashback scenes. It’s the same tool that I used for writing my thesis to graduate college. I’ve also got a draft of novel that will never see the light of the internet.
But back to the show, it’s kind of sad in so many ways and really hits you at the end with a twist that some could guess at but I wasn’t prepared for.
