I saw Great Gatsby and I liked it. *cue Katy Perry music*… I was legitimately impressed and thought the literary motifs carried through beautifully while still being visually spectacular. Also Moulin Rouge and Great Gatsby share a lot…obviously. But the opening sequence, the innocent young man in the wild city, the ‘she doesn’t love you’…I really should have seen the similarities when I first saw MR. But I must say I enjoy both in their own right…and I thought Gatsby was indeed great.
This is really catchy and enjoyable…and it makes me giggly.

So I go to fiesta…my first niosa, and end up at a free smashmouth concert in hemisfair park. Then Steve invites the (very small) crowd back to his hotel bar to party.

Why Dove’s “Real Beauty Sketches” Video Makes Me Uncomfortable… and Kind of Makes Me Angry
So this video started going around my facebook today, with about a dozen of my female friends sharing the link with comments like, and “Everyone needs to see this”, and “All girls should watch this,” and “This made me cry.” And I’m not trying to shame those girls! I definitely understand why they would do so. And I don’t want to be a killjoy. But as I clicked link and started watching the video, I started to feel a slight sense of discomfort. I couldn’t put my finger on why that was, exactly, but it continued throughout the whole thing. After watching the video several more times, I have some thoughts…
