X-Men Days of Future Past

The X-Men :D And the younger Xavier is here eee!

Since I am bored and will be writing my novel (just not yet) I shall post another post. Because, why not? This will be a movie review of... eenie meenie minie- X-Men Days of Future Past.

I absolutely loved this movie, and have to say it was the best out of all the X-Men. In case you have no idea what X-Men are, they are people born with extraordinary powers, mostly known as mutants. In this particular one, the future is in disarray and mutants are being hunted down by Sentinels, machines that can shift to adapt to their opponents. Wolverine, a.k.a. Hugh Jackman, is sent into the past by Professor Charles Xavier to '73 to stop what has already happened for them, all because Mystique killed Trask, the creator of the Sentinels. Now, it can be slightly inappropriate, like cursing and the mention of sex, but is still an overall spectacular movie. While Wolverine is sent back to the past, he meets the younger Beast/Hank and Xavier, who is not the man he is presently. The young Xavier is a drunken man still getting over that Mystique left him and he has truly no family. He inserts a medicine into his blood each day that will allow him to walk, but to give up his telepathic powers. Wolverine convinces him otherwise and he, Hank and Xavier set off to stop Mystique's dark path. By first, of course, gaining the alliance of Quicksilver, an amazingly fast mutant, to help free Erik, or Magneto, from the Pentagon. He was accused that he killed President Kennedy since he could control the metal in the bullets so easily. 

So anyway, after that epic scene of Quicksilver helping with the song "Time In A Bottle", tensions rise and trying to get Mystique to stray from her murdering path gets harder. Will the mutants prevent the horrible future that is destined to happen? Maybe, but go watch the movie. Trust me, if you love Marvel and Doctor Who and such, spending your money will be worth it. I mean, I couldn't stop fangirling over it for the entire night xD

Cat Drawings

I thought I'd share my cat drawings so far, just for the heck of it. I might even draw the cover of my book, though the cover is far from now. I find animals easier to draw than people so that's going to be a bit challenging if I'm going to have my main character on the cover. Ah well.

Drew this one early this year. Can't see the neck too well...

Done early this year too. Didn't get to the fur texture.

Drew this one in 6th grade, probably my best cat to be honest!

Summer Vacation: Rides Galore

The Delaware County Fair with just some of the rides I've been on

Officially, finally, summer has arrived!! Though I counted the last few days as no school because I just had to go in for two hours or so. New York is crazy, oh well :P Now that it's summer, I can however get to writing my novel, which I will post sneak peaks of occasionally. And get to that huge book pile in my room and go to the library a lot. Let's see, I'm also running each day to get ready for cross country, climbing trees, drawing cats and seeing a Jimmy Buffet concert. That should be fun :) And in August, I'm going to the annual Delaware County Fair and seeing the Demolition Derby where cars crush each other, and seeing the cute animals and going on tons of rides. The best last year was the Enterprise or UFO, something like that, with some of its letters chipped off. You got to go inside and it would spin around and around so fast until you could climb the walls. Amazing. The slides with the bags you go down on are cool too, and then there's the Claw. It goes back and forth as you spin in a claw shaped seating area and goes super fast. I was just tall enough last year yesss! I'm a huge roller coaster fanatic haha. I might even go to Six Flags or Bush Gardens. The last time I went to Six Flags, I was too short to go on the Superman. An inch too short. Gosh. But El Toro was great, the fastest ride I've ever been on! It's like in cartoons: your skin gets pulled back and you can barely move. Plus I scream at the top of my lungs, what fun for the people around me. To add on to my roller coaster rant with one more ride, The Griffin at Bush Gardens was terrifying. It was a ten seater, from what I remember, and the ride would go up to the very top and just creak there as we the riders dangled. Then it shot down and water would go flying from down below in the pond since it went by so quickly. Good times...
