I’m breaking up with you, Blogger.

Dear Blogger, after some 200 posts I shared with you, I have decided to move in with Tumblr.

It’s not me, it’s you. I just think Tumblr has more to offer.

Sorry.

If you still want to keep in touch, you can find me at abbsterocity.tumblr.com.

Sincerely,

Abby

When Nature Calls

I stumbled upon this while trekking through the internets and thought it was funny, because I have always wondered:

Off My Mind: When Do Superheroes Go To The Bathroom?

by Tony ‘G-Man’ Guerrero

Summer To-do list

  1. Learn how to play guitar. 

Why? Because playing saxophone with braces is painful and playing the piano is boring.

X-Men!

SatSpot 

In my opinion, this was overall a great movie.  Although it isn’t the most faithful of adaptations, it was entertaining, and isn’t that what movies are supposed to do?

Both the sets and costumes are neat. Kevin Bacon makes an excellent antagonist, James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender are great, and I have concluded that I need more Nicholas Hoult in my life.  Magneto’s backstory was done well as it exposed a vulnerable side to his character that we didn’t get to see in the previous films.  For what it was, the story was pretty good, though I would have liked to see more development of Charles and Erik’s friendship, or at least more interaction between the two.

Like I said, it was a great movie. Not mind-asploding, but great.  And fun. Go see it!
