Themed Presents: Movies

Though the other themed presents I have suggested were versatile, this one can be made completely your own! It is perfect for the movie lover, and you can choose any movie you like! This was a present for my boyfriend for our first Christmas, and I chose Batman!

Let's start with the basics...

Popcorn Buckets - I bought one big one and two small ones to put in the back. They are a little flimsy, but sturdier than a bag! They are each from dollar tree for... well I think that is kind of obvious.
Candy - The dollar boxes of movie candy (also from Dollar Tree!) are necessary for this present to give it that real movie feel.
Popcorn - You can't go to a movie without popcorn! You can go very basic and get cheaper popcorn, or go for some crazy flavors (I currently have salted caramel in my pantry!), or be super simple and easy and buy them a bag of the really good already popped stuff.

Now after you've got the basic staging of the presents has been done, it's time to get into the real present part! My boyfriend already had the movies (just like every other movie known to man), so that wasn't an option... I chose to get him a gift certificate for two tickets to the movies, a Batman lanyard, and a huge movie poster!

But as I said you could go many ways with this, and the more popular the movie is, the more options you have!

You could get them a wallet, Christmas ornament, the actual movies, the soundtrack, a spinoff or cartoon version of the movie, a shirt, boxers, pajamas...

The possibilities are endless!

Best Beach Ever!

So... I am debating on if I should even share this with you because it is so amazing! This is the most absolutely amazing beach I have ever been to in my life! It is Emerald Isle NC it is perfect! So in my mind it is so perfect because: It is on the beautiful coast of North Carolina (which is where I live, and where I love!) It's name is Emerald ISLE so its on a cute little island (Duh!), at some places o the island you can see the Bogue Sound (yes this is a body of water, and yes this is a real place) and the Atlantic Ocean on the other It is a quite little town so everyone if friendly, and the beaches are never crowded There is a nice little aquarium just up the island a bit The is a little shopping center called Emerald Plantations that includes a movie theater , restaurants, shops, and a river where you can feed Sea Turtles (this is especially fun because there's one that is bigger than my six year old brother! It lives at the bottom and only comes up occasiona...

New Favorite App!

I just wanted to tell you all about this really cool new app I found for my Kindle Fire! If you have been visiting this blog for any length of time whatsoever, you know about my obsession with list making. And yes I admit, it has turned into something of an obsession as of lately... But anyway... The app is called "My Binder: Tabbed Notes" When you open it up and it shows you all of the different notebooks you have made And when you pick a notebook it shows you all of your pages and tabs you have made and named. You can name everything whatever you want, create as many notebooks as you would like, and hi-light the important things. I love it! And thought this was a great way to ring in the beginning of my Summer and Packing post montage because I am going to be using this aaaaaaaaaaaall the time for quick lists and blog ideas! I already have three notebooks just pertaining to beachy things! You can get it here: www.amazon.com/...

Cardio Warmups

So in every workout you are supposed to warm up with (fill in the blank cardio). Cardio, CaRdIo, CARDIO! Thats all you hear when it comes to workouts, and to be blunt cardio sucks. I found this cute little workout that you could do on the days that you just don't feel like going out and running. Now remember I'm not saying this works as well as good mile or so run, but do this a few time through and you will feel as tired as if you did!
