Home: The Review

Page Turner here. I just watched the new Dreamworks movie, Home. Here's my review!
     (Possible spoiler alert)  It all begins with the Boovs; a friendly alien civilization who make a living running away. Their motto is to run away from danger, and they excel at that. The entire Boov colony takes over Earth, thinking that they are doing us lowly, primitive humans a favor. The humans are moved to Australia and the Boovs move in. Oh, a highly optimistic and somewhat accident prone Boov, couldn't be more excited about the move to earth. The problem? Nobody else is excited that Oh even exist, but that hardly dampers his enthusiasm. In a moment of highly optimistic determination, Oh tries to send an email to a fellow Boov, but accidentally hits send all. As in, send to the entire galaxy...even the dreaded enemies the Boovs were trying to run away from in the first place. Now Oh must try to escape from his peers, who are angry at him for always making mistakes. He joins up with a girl named Tip who was overlooked in the relocation of people, and together they set off on an epic journey to find Tip's mom and stop the mail. This light-hearted, colorful and innovative movie sparks imagination and is filled with humor, astounding creativity and sights you never would have dreamed of. Over all, Home is a heartfelt adventure through imagination and friendship. Although both Oh and Tip started out to stop and email and save her mom, they both learned about love instead.
Four and a Half Stars!

Calling All Lego Lovers!

     Hi, Page Turner here. It's been a while. I suppose I just haven't had a lot to write about. :) There is, however, something important to write about today.      If you're a fan of Lego, science fiction, or just enjoy an awesome plane model, I have some really cool news. Take a look: This elegant Lego design is called the The U.S.S. Martin . It is a Lego set featuring two large engines in the rear (see figure 2) made from blue Lego parts.      Within this carrier lies hidden guns for defense when the crew is confronted from surly space pirates or other threats.      In the front (see figure 1) lies bulbous cockpit that, in emergency situations, transforms into an eject-able escape pod. The rear of the cargo carrier unfolds to form a ramp, where the happy crew is loading for flight.        The U.S.S. Martin  is covered with sleek maroon and grey paneling and dotted with vents for heat distr...

An Ode to My iPod: Part 2

iPod, you were in your plastic baggy I stared at you as I cleaned the kitchen How broken you were! The rice could not fix you, it seemed A friend suggested I get a new one Replace you, dear iPod? I had no other choice! You've been with me through a lot, dear iPod Through my first couple basketball games Through that terrible thunderstorm I listened to you during my sad times I played you when I was happy Your music reminded me of good memories Why, wonderful iPod, why did I let you get wet? It was such an innocent thunderstorm I held you as I listened to your song But was it for the last time? I listened to you as we drove long miles Your ability to store music astounds me So many memories are in those songs! My little iPod, you played as we grouted the porch You were beside me in the late nights when I couldn't sleep You lie on my pillow, supplying me with audio as I draw Dear little iPod, your music kept me running I guess I shall have to say good-bye,...

Back Again

                Hi, all! Page Turner here! I hope that everyone is having a great summer! One of the things that I am really excited about this summer is reading. With school and everything else going on, I haven't made time to read a book in a really, really long while. I feel like God gave us books, and that reading the right books can be a blessing in our lives. They can inspire us to be creative, teach us lessons, inspire us to love one another, and move our hearts to both a greater understanding and a greater love for our Savior. I feel like a few hours with a good book are a great use of time--and I plan to be doing just that this summer!       Over the next few months, I really hope to revisit some old books as well as some new ones. I know I can't read all of them, but I also hope to at least take a thoughtful review of some books that I feel God has used to impact my life. That's why I've made a non-definitive list of 15 F...
