Movie Review: Elemental

-
    Have you heard about the new movie called Elemental? I heard of it when it was in theaters but didn't watch the trailer. When I saw it on Disney+ I knew I had to watch it! I was talking with my friend about it, and she was always interested in watching the movie it was cheesy but it was moving!

   The movie was based on the director Peter Sohn's childhood growing up in an ethnic family and his family's immigration story to the United States. In the movie, there are different elements such as earth, wind, fire, and water. In the movie, the story is about a fire element named Ember and how her family moved from their homeland to a different place to call home in Element City. Throughout the movie, it shows how Ember's family works hard to make their own life and business in Element City. Including Ember's father going to give the business to Ember in the future when she is ready. Ember has a temper and is learning how to connect with customers in the business but is conflicted if she wants to take over her father's business. 
    Later in the movie, Ember meets Wade a water element, they fall in love with each other throughout the movie, but Wade is so open to letting Ember get close to him and tells her she can follow her own dreams. Ember gets more conflicted on whether she should follow her dream and be with Wade rather than sacrifice her father's business or give up loving Wade and her dream to run and take over their father's business.

    Spoiler alert! The ending was amazing, and I loved it! Ember accepts to be in love with Wade and follows her dreams while her father's business is run by locals in their town.

    Overall, I give this movie a 9 out of 10. I thought the movie was heartwarming and was a great movie to learn about different ethnicities and backgrounds and learn about having an open mind and heart to new experiences. In addition, to the animation and music that was picked for the movie. Let me know if you have recently seen it or are interested in watching it?

    I have been wanting to see this movie but haven't found the perfect time to watch it! I had no clue about the story line being based on the director's childhood and his unique upbringing, but now that I do I will definitely have to watch it!

Easter Weekend!

     Hey, guys welcome back to my blog! I hope everyone had a good Easter this past weekend because I did! Let me tell you what I did this Easter weekend! Friday, I got to see my aunt, uncle and little cousin. They are from Maryland and they just bought a camper so they brought it to Ohio with them so they could go camping and for my family and I to check it out which was pretty nice! Later in the day, we went on an easter egg hunt for my nephew and my cousin. I didn't know that it was the first Easter egg hunt that my town put on which was a great turnout but was pretty crazy when the kids went to get the eggs. I am going to tell you it was like the "Hunger Games." Saturday, my family and I colored goose eggs, duck eggs and chicken eggs for Easter this year which was pretty interesting. We even colored them differently this year by using shaving cream and food coloring, the eggs turn out pretty well! Sunday, we woke up pretty early to find our Easter baskets and do an Ea

      A couple weeks ago I went to Bellefontaine with my friends. We usually try to plan things every weekend to keep us busy but this time we decided to go to Bellefontaine again! This time on this trip we had a couple of things planned but not a ton so the first thing we got was some hot chocolate because it was a cold day then we went shopping. We looked at antique shops and little small business shops. All the shops that we went to were very cute and we had a lot of fun! I got a shirt at an antique shop so did my friends too! A couple hours later, we went to my friend Maddie's house to have dinner. For dinner, we had chicken alfredo with garlic bread and my friends and I ate all the garlic bread! Later that night, we planned on going to Maddie's sister's play which was a musical called "Into the Woods." The play was amazing with the actors, actresses, and the decorations too! After the play, Maddie's sister was so excited and happy to see us and we were ha

ONU Life Week 1

A week ago, I came back early for track, but I can tell you it was weird but nice to be back on campus before everyone else came back to campus. Then a week later class started, my first day back for the second semester at Ohio Northern University was kind of overwhelming from a month break to rolling into the next semester. I have to say my professors wasted no time to start their classes. Right off the back, they had me doing assignments that were literally due next week! But that is not even the most overwhelming thing that happen that week. What made my week was not being able to buy my books. You might say buying your books for class should be easy, well your wrong. I tried buying my books probably three times online and it failed because the server wasn't working so I had to walk to the ONU Bookstore to see if they could help me. But you probably think "Oh she went in and they got it fixed for her right away." Let me tell you I went back to the bookstore probably se
