There has been much hype on many forums such as Facebook and Buzzfeed about a movie on Netflix named Verónica. This was deemed "The Most Terrifying Horror Movie."

MTV released a recent article "There's a new horror movie on Netflix so sh*t scary people can't even finish it." source If you read the article and if you are like me and don't like scary movies, then you won't even want to watch this movie because of all of the reviews people gave throughout this article.

Twitter was taken by storm as massive tweets flooded in about how people were so scared and had to shut it off halfway through. According to many other articles, only 1 in 10 people could only watch the whole movie.

I was hesitant to watch the movie, but with a snow day, and a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, it was hard to argue.

I watched the movie and overall it was well done. The plot was well developed and each character you grew to love throughout the film; it was not your "typical" horror film. When it came down to being scary, there were a few portions that made me jumpy or made me hide my face, but nothing serious as people claimed.

The part that scared me the most was at the end when I found out it was based on a true story... what?!?!? (I don't think it is supposed to be the "scary" part)

Amidst everything, the girl who is afraid of her own shadow sat through the movie and you can too. I highly suggest watching the movie though. It was really well done and a good thriller to watch if you are in the mood for a scary movie (especially if you like foreign films/shows like me).

But you be the judge for yourself! Check out the trailer below and see if you can watch the whole thing:

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
