2012 in Review



Best song: Thinking about  you - Frank Ocean This was my favorite song because it was very catchy and personal. I still listen to it now and so many people made remixes on the song because its so good.

I chose this movie because i love the twilight saga, and this movie was the perfect ending to the movies.     what attracted me was the big scene it created and i have seen all the other four before it. It was the best of 2012 to me because I saw it there times in theaters.


I chose the presidential election as the most important news story because it decides who is gonna be the president of our country. What attracted me was the whole county was talking about it and it was  huge. This is the most important because he will be our president for the next 4 years.

For the holidays I spent new years with my boyfriend, my resolution is to be the best i can be, I'm looking forward to good times with my fiends and family.
