My Babysitter's A Vampire

Image
Title: My Babysitter's A Vampire Channel: Disney Time: Weekdays 7&7:30 pm New: Weekdays 7pm Age: 13 and Under My Rating: 4.5/5 My Thoughts: Well, it seems Disney Channel has recieved all the talent in the new television shows compared to Nickolodeon. A lot of the newer tv shows seem to have absolutely no acting talent at all in them and the actors look like they were born yesterday, but not in this show. The actors act so well it seems like you are right there and that it is actually happening (well, except for Benny sometimes). Anyway, I like this show and I watch it every night. I think a lot of people will like it to! But mainly the middle school and younger grades.

Hello!

Hello! This is Tasha. Please welcome our newest blogger! :) Her name is Julia and she is my grandmother! But don't think, oh no, an old lady! haha she's definately the coolest grandma I've ever met! She's the one that takes me everywhere - to the beach, to Europe, to concerts. So please give her a very warm welcome and I'm sure she'll provide some amazing reviews!

Ocean City Boardwalk

Image
Ocean City, MD is like any other city by the ocean. It has the sand, it has the water, and it has a boardwalk. The boardwalk in Ocean City has so many different stores, you could spend hours shopping there. It also features a nice variety of hotels and resturants. You can walk to the beach from the boardwalk and you can see the water while standing on it. On one side of the boardwalk is the road, the other the ocean. The boardwalk is litterally boards that you walk on! It's a wooden walkway. You can even ride rides on the boardwalk! There are 2 places to ride rides on the Ocean City boardwalk, and tons of places to play games! If you go to Ocean City, MD, you have to go to the boardwalk! ps. this review was done by TashaNicole on a blank post that was saved by Kate, so it says its from Kate but its not and I did not go onto her account

Ke$ha Get Sleazy Tour

Image
Search Amazon.com for ke$ha Tour: Get Sleazy Artist: Ke$ha Place: Delaware State Fair Yesterday, I had the privilege of attending a Ke$ha concert that was part of the Get Sleazy Tour. Champagne Champagne opened for her, even though LMAFO opened for most other concerts on the tour. They were noisy haha. But the crowd really got into it and enjoyed it. About an hour later, Ke$ha finally came on! She stayed in a box most of the time, which wasn't too good. Also she only sang for about an hour and did only 2 encore songs, after 20 minutes of screaming fans. The general admission was full, and tickets cost $50, while our tickets were a bit higher up and only cost $45 and were no where near full. I think it should have been cheaper for her to only perform for an hour. Shirts were $35 and some were $40. Super expensive, and they didn't even list Delaware! But, all in all, it was a pretty good concert, mostly though because I know all her songs by heart and love Kesha. I

H2O Nite Club

Image
H2O is an Under 21 Dance Club located in Ocean City, Maryland, USA. It has the honor of being the biggest dance club on the East Coast and is the only Under 21 club in Ocean City. It opens at 8:30 (but they start checking at about 8) for $10 or after 8:30 for $20. You must be between the ages of 15-20 to enter. Each night they have a different celebration. Monday is Free T-Shirt and Highlighter night, Tuesday is TV Dance Show Filming & Billabong Bikini Fashion Show night, Wednesday is when MTV Celebrities come, Thursday and Sunday are Foam Parties, Friday is a Stoplight night, and Saturday is the largest East Coast dance party. Every Wednesday they have a celebrity from MTV. Princess Kate and I went on Friday - Stoplight night. What this means is everyone gets a glowstick to represent thier relationship status. Green for single, yellow for talking to someone, and red for in a relationship. Me and Kate were both green. Well, I have to say. It was definately not as I would have ex

Big Cat Rescue

Image
Big cats. They're majestic, beautiful, and wild creatures. It's a shame that so many of them are being captured, and forced into things that they weren't put on this world to do. You see them in circuses, looking so happy doing what they do. But do you know what happens back stage? Many circuses whip their animals until they do what they're supposed to do. If they growl, or hiss, they get whipped. Thats why they never show any signs of not wanting to do it. Then they get poached for their fur, or meat out in the wild. They shouldn't have to suffer like this. That's why Big Cat Rescue was made. Big Cat Rescue is an organization created to prevent those things from happening. They teach you ways you can help them, by donating, signing petitions, getting the word out, they even have credit cards made where with everything you buy, 1% of the money gets donated towards them. The website is also educational, and teaches you facts about many big cats, including, tiger

Cyberbully - The Movie

Image
Movie: Cyberbully Channel: ABC Family Starring: Emily Osment, Kay Panabaker Rating: PG Summary: (online) Cyberbully follows Taylor Hillridge (Emily Osment), a teenage girl who falls victim to online bullying, and the cost it takes on her as well as her friends and family. Taylor is a pretty seventeen-year-old student dealing with her parents' recent divorce and painfully aware of her lower social status in high school. When her mom gives her a computer for her birthday, Taylor is excited by the prospect of going online to meet new friends without her mother always looking over her shoulder. However, Taylor soon finds herself the victim of betrayal and bullying while visiting a popular social website. Obsessed with the damaging posts, she begins to withdraw from her family and friends, including her life-long best friend, Samantha Caldone (Kay Panabaker). Tormented and afraid to face her peers at school, Taylor is pushed to an extreme breaking point. It is only after this life

Tybee Island Marine Science Center

I know what your thinking. Tybee Island, GA, the place where Miley Cyrus filmed her movie, The Last Song. While on Vacation in Savannah with my younger sisters girl scout troop (Savannah is the birthplace of Girl Scouting), we took a trip to Tybee Island. While on the Island, which is one of the few barrier beaches in GA you can drive to, we all took a stop at Tybee Island Marine Science Center, which happens to be right by the beach. On Tybee Island, one of the most valued sea creatures, besides the wild Atlantic Bottle-nosed Dolphins which pop out of the water when you take the dolphin cruise, is a Sea Turtle. While at the Marine Science Center, which is a smaller building right on the beach, the troop talked about special research about the Sea Turtles and the importance of bringing back the endangered species. Did you know, since beginning the rehabilitation of the Sea Turtle, the number of nests has just about doubled, and the number of 'false crawls' has slow declined. I

Wolves of the Beyond

Image
From the same person who inspired the movie "Guardians of Ga'hoole," comes a story of a pup, who was abandoned from his pack for having a twisted paw. He was put onto a river of ice, and the Obea (The ugliest wolf of the pack) smashed the ice beneath him, where he was supposed to drown. But the ice flood carried him to safe land, where a bear, who had cubs that were recently killed by a mountain lion, found him and gave him warmth and milk. The bears name was "Thunderheart" and she named the pup "Faolan" since in wolf and bear language, Fao means 'river' and 'wolf', and lan means 'gift'. Thunderheart raises Faolan the ways a bear would raise her cubs, and when tragedy strikes, Faolan must fend for himself. Author: Kathryn Lasky Recommended for children interested in animals, and adventure.

I could relate to the character in the book because I used to be the best friend that always came in second. You could feel the love that Sarah had for Ryan and actually for bad for him because of how Brianna treated him. I am so glad they got together and as far as Ryan was concerned Brianna got what was comi

Warriors, Omen of the Stars

Image
"Omen of the Stars" is the fourth series of warrior books. It includes a prophecy that states "There will be three kin, of your kin, that hold the power of the stars in there paws." The kin are Firestars (Thunderclan leaders) kin. His two grandchildren, warrior Lionblaze, and medicine cat Jayfeather. And the third is his nephews daughter, Dovefeather. Each of them has a special power. Jayfeather (Who is blind) can travel into other cats dreams, where he can see. Lionblaze can fight in any battle and not get killed or injured seriously. Dovefeather can see and hear farther then any other cat. The Dark Forest (Where evil cats go when they die) is rising, led by Tigerstar, Hawkfrost, and Brokenstar, and they are training cats who are alive (Including Dovefeathers sister, Ivytail) to do deadly battle moves. They are killing some of them who get hurt in the dreams and they bleed in real life to death. The dark forest is rising and soon there will be a battle. Live cats

Alfred's Tale

Title: Alfred's Tail Author: Randall Emery Summary: This is not yet a published book. About the Author (From His Facebook Page): ALL SMALL CHILDREN ARE TO CONSIDERED AS PACKAGES OF CONCENTRATED LOVE AS THEY ARE A GIFT TO US FROM THE GOOD LORD GOD ABOVE I AM MAKING AN ATTEMPT TO BECOME A GOD FEARING PERSON PLEASE FORGIVE ME WHENEVER YOU SEE ME FAIL IN THE ATTEMPT LOOKING TO GET MARRIED TO ANY AVAILABLE FEMALE ANY TAKERS My Thoughts: Alfred and his friends were once part of a traveling petting zoo and circus.

House

Image
This is my first entry so I'm pretty excited! For my first entry, I'm doing my favorite show on television: House M.D. House m.d. is a dramatic show (Owned by Fox) starring Hugh Laurie, Lisa Edelstein, (Who is leaving the show after 7 seasons!) Omar Epps, and Robert Sean Leonard (Plus Jesse Spencer, Olivia Wilde, and Peter Jacobson) about a hospital named "Princeton Planesboro Teaching Hospital. Dean of Medicine, Lisa Cuddy (Lisa Edelstein) and head of the diagnostic department, who is said to be the greatest diagnostic in the country, Greg House (Hugh Laurie), have a love/hate relationship on the show. They try it out in season 7, but it never worked out. Houses team, Remy Hadley, nicknamed: 13 (Olivia Wilde), Robert Chase (Jesse Spencer), and Christopher Taub (Peter Jacobson) all have their own lives apart from being doctors. They are all filled with drama. Also, House and his best friend, head of Oncology, James Wilson (Robert Sean Leonard) have had a long "brom

Guest Post with Aaron Patterson

“ Why I Love (and Write) Teen Romantic Thrillers” I love teen fiction because of the way it breaks some of the boundaries. I mean where else can you get a cool vampire or a game where starvation and crazy tests are all the norm? I think it is so much more interesting and above all, I love writing YA because of these same reasons. I have three adult novels (The WJA Series) and after I discovered teen liked what I wrote I decided to write some YA for myself. Airel was born and I must say this was the most fun I ever had writing a book. Not only is it super fun to write from a teen point of view, but as a guy to write from a female teen POV is so much more fun. I grew up and all my best friends were girls. I just thought they were so much more interesting. All my guy friends were boring and all they talked about were sports or ego laced dumb guy stuff. Girls on the other hand were a mystery and I liked to hang if you will. This did not serve me well in the girlfriend department as

I instantaniously became hooked! Chloe is an adopted child whose father walked out on her family when she was little. Its her 16th birthday and she wants to live a more exciting life. Well, she definately got her wish! It turns out shes a My - more than just any My, though. She's the Uniter. One they've been waiting thousands of years for!

I can't wait until next Tuesday to watch the next episode!

Toxic Torte ( Just Desserts Mysteries) by Lori Pollard-Johnson

Another great KINDLE find! This book is another in the mysteries genre that I love to read. This book is about a newspaper writer who is told to cover the funeral of a local celebrity food critic and write an obituary. The problem arises when Jess goes to the funeral home and the police show up and tell the widow that the death is not natural but a homicide. Jess is then forced to figure out exactly who, and how the chef was killed. Jess then reviews all of the critic's negative reviews-which is all of them, to gather her list of suspects. The book takes you from one resturant to another, through one suspect to another. The novel is an easy read and keeps you attention throughout the story. I would recommend you give this one a try--I certainly liked it! and found it enjoyable.

Executive Retention ( A Sedona O'Hala mystery) by Maria Schneider

Okay, so I got a Kindle and didn't know what to download on it. I like mysteries and this one was highlighted. I was quite impessed with Maria Schneider and her character Sedona O"Hala. This mystery takes places within the IT world. Sedona is working "undercover" to solve why a successful company is always losing money. Just when you think you have figured it out, a twist occurs. This book also has a romance growing, but is not resolved in this novel. I will continue to read the resst of her books in this series to see where it goes. The mystery keeps the readers attention right up to the end. This novel was well worth the same fee of $2.99, so check it out!!

Smokin' Seventeen: A Stephanie Plum Novel By Janet Evanovich

Janet Evanovich does it again! I just love her Stephanie Plum novels and can't wait for the next novel.At the end of the last novel, we read about the bonds office burning down. So now the office must operate out of an RV in front of the construction site for the rebuilt office. This ends up being the perfect place for dead bodies to be dumped. Stephanie and LuLu continue their quest to capture bond jumpers, always giving the reader a good laugh. Morelli and Ranger's off again/on again relationship continues. Morelli and Stephanie's grandmother, each respectfully provide their own humor. Stephanie continues to destroy Ranger's cars and the laughter never stops. This adventure keeps you entertained thru the entire book. A MUST read for the summer!!!

Cornhole

Image
  Yesterday, at a 4th of July celebration, I won my first game of Cornhole. (It wasn't my first time playing it - but it was my first time not breaking the board and also winning!) Cornhole is a game. It's extreemly common to go to a party where I live and play this and Hillbilly Horseshoes (which I am extreemely terrible at!). What it is is a board ( Natural Cornhole Boards by BestCornBags ) on the ground with a hole near the top . You then toss sand bags or bean bags at it. If it lands on the board its 1 point, if it goes in the hole its 3 points. There are 2 boards, 50 feet apart. Two teams are constructed of 2 players each. One person is at one board, the other is at the other. Each team is a certain color, and they toss only that colored bag. There are 4 bags so they have the oppertunity to get 12 points at a time! The winning team must win by getting 21 points and being at least 2 points ahead of the other team. It is a really fun game and I would reccomend if you have

State of Georgia

Image
TV Show: State of Georgia Channel: ABC Family Time: Wednesdays New: Wednesdays at 8:30 Starring: Raven Symone Genre: Comedy Recommended for: 11 and Up My Thoughts: Raven Symone is back, baby! The Disney-Channel famous star, who also has done many works outside of Disney, left Disney a few years ago to go to college. Now in her big return, she stars in her own show. Raven plays Georgia, a wannabe actress with so much selfrespect its truly inspiring. I've only seen half of one episode because then I had to go, but it definately seemed like an awesome show and I'll definately watch the new ones when they come on! :)

WolfQuest

What many people don't know about me, well.. I am a total wolf freak. I love the wild creature, and I love everything about them and their kind. Sometimes, I even wish I was a wolf sometimes. My parents call it an unhealthy obsession. I call it more or so life. One thing that I have installed on my computer actually got me started on my wolfly love (Pun intended.. boy am I such a nerd). Last year, one of my best friends turned me onto this virtual wolf stimulation, what I like to call WolfQuest. WolfQuest is a digital world launched by the Minnesota Zoo and EduWeb were users can learn the ways of the wolves through "on-hands" experiance.  Not only can users get on the app and play single-player mode games about the wolf life, they can also role play or meet with other members of the site on the digital creation of Yellowstone National Park, where the program background is set. You can be part of a pack, or maybe a loner, or chose to play the enhancing single-player mode

Lady GaGa Monster Ball Tour

Image
Little Monsters dressed as the Mother Monster As you may or may not know, in February, I attended Lady GaGa's Monster Ball Tour. We had VIP tickets that came with a preshow party. Like every concert, there were people on the streets selling and buying tickets. Who knows if they were real or not? Me and my cousin, Elena, playing DJ for a picture The preshow party was not as I expected it to be. I expected it to be on the main floor, in front of the stage, with a disco ball and music so loud it would make you go deaf. Instead, it was upstairs in a large room with a bar. Sodas, hamburgers, chips, cookies, vegetables, and other selected food items were avaliable. During the early parts, Lady GaGa was actually walking around herself, though we got there a half hour too late! There was a DJ playing all types of songs and artists, though TVs were scattered around the room playing Lady GaGa music videos. We were allowed to stay as long as we wanted, but once the stage opened, we wen

So Random

Image
Name: So Random Channel: Disney Times: Weekdays 7:30 New: Fridays Reccomended for: Ages 7-12 My Thoughts: Every Disney Channel loving child knows the television show, Sonny with a Chance, that starred Demi Lovato. It was a comedy show about a comedy show and a drama show. Well, that comedy show that Sonny with a Chance was about is now its own show! Much like Nickolodeon's The Amanda Show (starring Amanda Bynes), So Random is a show comprised of several different skits, or sketches, featuring the same people. Wow. Did I just date myself by mentioning The Amanda Show? Oh well, haha. Anyway, I loved The Amanda Show when I was little (littler, anyway) and I think the kids of today will love So Random just as much. I like the idea of it a lot, though since it is from Sonny with a Chance, sometimes it gets me missing that show. But, yeah. It's sure to be a hit and its a great family show. I also love how each episode is ended by a guest star appearance and a song/performance.

Hexult

 Title: Hexult Author: Perry Aylen Format: EBook Summary (Hexult.com): Shipwrecked on the frozen seas of an ice world, in a future so distant that the only traces left of our time are shards of glass, fifteen year old twins, Jacob and Elya, are rescued by Aulf, the young mail man, who earns a precarious living sailing his small boat between the treacherous arms of the Vajra Crevasse, to deliver mail to the troubled islands of Hexult. When the seas rose and the world froze, much technology was lost, and Jacob and Elya's superior knowledge of science leads the superstitious islanders to believe they are magicians. An ancient prophecy, predicting their arrival, spells trouble for the twins, and before long threatens their relationship with each other and puts and Elya's life in danger. With the islands at each other's throats, Jacob and Elya come up with a revolutionary plan to help improve relations across Hexult, an idea instantly snapped up by Hexult's re
