Sasuke . I'm not proud of this and I know I could do better because I read manga all the time. . I hate myself for not being able to do this properly. I just can't ever make faces or bodies, they're too complex. I'll hide one, but I can't make one... . . #procreateartist #procreate #artoftheday #art #beautiful #procreateart #sasuke #sasukeuchiha #naruto #sasukestan #rinnegan #rinnegansasuke #mangekyousharingan #sasukesharingan #notproud #couldhavebeenbetter #angry #sasukefandom #anger #anime #masashikishimoto https://www.instagram.com/p/B7TuGbFJNNf/?igshid=yip8qjqrrhm9

More of a con than a comedy but then again it is a remake of a remake. At least Rebel Wilson makes for a laugh! #conartists #couldhavebeenbetter #thehustle (at Portishead, North Somerset) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7McFJkhnF0WUvsPkqy1R6ZOCyqJ7QCjxWPeMw0/?igshid=ozu0mq7dsqer

Pokémon Detective Pikachu

So ... Pokémon Detective Pikachu (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5884052/?ref_=nv_sr_1?ref_=nv_sr_1) coming in with an IMDB rating of 7,0 and a Redeemer Rating of 6,0. I think, at least, that this is a fair assessment of the movie. I tried to take into account the actual target audience of the movie, and not just my own feelings regarding the movie. Cause for me I think this was not the best movie, but I did at least enjoy it to a certain extent. Having Ryan Reynolds in the movie made it a must see for me. But I feel like this movie really could have been used better. 

The plot. Young Tim Goodman, estranged from his father after the death of his mother, finds out that his father has passed away while on the job .. as a policeman. When looking through his father’s apartment he comes across a Pikachu with amnesia that can talk, at least to him. Everyone else simply hears “pika-pika” .. but Tim and Pikachu can speak to each other. Together they must solve the murder of Tim’s dad, the memory loss of Pikachu and the major bad guy plot that evolves in the background. 

The movie. For this review I am going to try something new. Something bad followed by something good and on and on through the review. One of my major issues with this movie is that whoever made this movie could not really settle on a target audience in doing that made a movie for no one. It seems to me that this movie was billed as a bit of a darker and more adult Pokemon movie made mostly for the people a few years younger than me who grew up with Pokemon but are now adult. Just a bit of a stroll down memory lane movie. What we got was a movie that tries to skate the line of adult content  .. doing everything possible without loosing a PG rating. But, the pokemon animation is wonderful. Pikachu is fantastic, he just looks furry and awesome. Super happy with that. The dialogue in the movie is so blatantly over with what it is trying to get across that I just feel like I have had the plot of the movie beaten into me over and over. The cast is actually really good. The emotion of the movie really comes across when it needs to. That was well done. There are some serious child pandering scenes .. I mean, let’s see how many Pokemon that we can get onto the screen all at once. Completely pointless. The plot of the movie is actually really good. The movie could have been twenty times better as a PG-13 movie. I really wish they had gone that way. You have Ryan Reynolds, fresh off of Deadpool 2 and you don’t give him a character that can sweat at all. 

The redeeming factor. Having Ryan Reynolds be Pikachu and use his recognizable voice to bring this character to life. As I said before, I wish they would have let him go loose a bit more .. but he works and makes Pikachu a little child friendly Deadpool. But seriously, Ryan Reynolds FTW.

The Final Word. Here it is. If you Pokemoned as a child and are now in your 30′s .. there is a chance that you may like this movie. Better if you kids to go with, as it may turn them onto the craze. Best case scenario for who should see this movie .. parent-children combos who do Pokemon Go together. This is the movie for you. If you are neither a Pokemon person or a die hard Ryan Reynolds fan (like me) .. then this is NOT the movie for you.

This is one of the 2 quotes that hit me so deeply that they set in motion a chain of events that resulted in me stepping back from my career and taking the chance to watch my kids grow up. : The other one was - You spend 95% of your time with your kids, when they are kids- : I know that I am in the lucky position to be able to do this but half of my battle was fought for me by having a good emergency fund and a decent grasp of my finances. : The rest was just a wing and a prayer 😬 : I have no idea what is in store for me in the future. But what I can say is that I have never been happier😊 : This is a great community and I am so lucky to be a part of it. Thank you 🌟🙏 : : : : : : #whoareyou #hellonearth #meeting #savemoney #greatinstagrammers #kildare #ireland #couldhavebeenworse #couldhavebeenbetter #lifeissweet #lifeisgood #choices #thegoodlife #frugalliving #frugalmom #frigalmomma #kids #freedom #pivot #courage #bravemove #doit #chooselife #noregrets #spendless #savemore #nospendchallenge #nospendyear #spendtime #kidsgrowfast (at Ireland (country)) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsjFnjElWA5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1phafh87tiyq8

After seeing pintsizedpalace finish her first head, I thought I'd give it a go, too. I bought some clay for doll making a while ago, but never started since I didn't think I'd be able to do it. She is modeled after my character GUTS, but I don't think she represents the character very well.. 😑 still, even though I'm not terribly happy with how this came out, I'm really glad I finished it (mostly) and gave it a try. I want to try again with some different clay - this is air dry stuff and was pretty different than clay I've used before. PLEASE GIVE ME SUGGESTIONS ON CLAY TO USE! I think I'd prefer air dry but not this brand (polyform). Anyway this was hard as fuck and I'm glad I'm making a cyclops cause Jesus I'd drive myself up a fucking wall trying to make that shit all even and symmetrical. I'm having such a hard time with getting all the features symmetrical and even as it is! Please hit me with critiques!!! (LOL also she was supposed to be an SD head but I think she's even too small to be an MSD head.... I think an MSD head would be better for her anyway..) 👁 ✨ 👁 ✨ 👁 ✨ #bjd #balljointeddoll #dollmaking #cyclops #monstergirl #bjdmaking #couldhavebeenbetter but also #couldhavebeenworse

Finally, a sketch I can be proud of. This woman has all my heart!

I really wanted to capture her smile at this exact moment. I dunno how much I succeeded. But oh well.

“One of my biggest lessons learnt is that life is unpredictable. If we don’t grow through what we go through, then how else do we live and learn?” ✨🌹✨🌹✨ If You Don’t Laugh You’ll Cry by Angie Kent was a quick and easy read, marketed as “funny and engaging” and “filled with lots of little pieces of wisdom”, but it fell a little flat for me. Don’t get me wrong, there were some chapters that I found funny, or relatable, but most of it was really repetitive. I felt like she only really skimmed the surface of some topics that could have been really substantial and meaningful. Kent hinted a lot about her childhood being rough and some of the hard times she went through, but it was only surface deep. One thing I did like about this book was that there was a continuous message about love and kindness - both to others and oneself. Overall, I think that Kent could have done a lot more with this book, but that being said I don’t think this is a bad book. ✨🌹✨🌹✨ If You Don’t Laugh You’ll Cry is book 197 for the year. #bookstragram #books #booksofinstagram #booklover #bookphoto #reading #aussieswhoread #avidreader #booklover #aussiereader #bookdragon #reader #readersofig #booksofig #bookcommunity #bookish #bibliophile #readersofinstagram #bookstagrammer #booklife #bookaddict #girlswhoread #readinggoals2019 #bookquote #ifyoudontlaughyoullcry #angiekent #autobiography #pinkandblack #flatlay #couldhavebeenbetter https://www.instagram.com/p/B6PF-YpAnU-/?igshid=1r5rhso0xl1o5

Yesterday was my little sister's birthday so as a special treat my mum paid for the 3 of us to have a Harry Potter themed tea party at Cupcakes 2 Love in Doncaster. Unfortunately we were all very disappointed with it, especially considering how much my mum paid for it. My sister said it was "piss poor" and that we all (6 of us) could have gone to the Chinese for a nicer meal for the same amount, or to somewhere else and had a better quality afternoon tea. It needed to have less shop bought tat sweets and more proper afternoon tea party things. So while it was a nice idea, and we did leave with the left overs and a bottle of fake butter beer each, there was only one cupcake each and my sister's vegetarian plate of sandwiches (with lumps of cheese and pickled onions and a mini babybell) took nearly half an hour to arrive when we only had an hour time slot to have our tea party in. My mum had been thinking about having one of the Disney or other themed tea parties that they do there for her birthday but we know now not to bother. So very disappointing. 🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂 #harrypotterteaparty #teaparty #harrypottertheme #harrypotter #cupcakes #sandwiches #birthday #sweets #magicsprite #magic #fakebutterbeer #birthdaytreat #disappointed #disappointing #dontbother #gosomewhereelse #doityourselfinstead #mustdobetter #lesstatmorequality #tryharder #niceidea #thethoughtwasthere #couldhavebeenbetter #qualitynotquantity #pisspoor (at Cupcakes 2 Love Ltd)
