4 Unexpected Shameless Obsessions:D

"You are not going nowhere just because you haven't got where you want to be yet." -Taylor Swift.

This quote sums up my summer and much of my life. But that isn't the obsessions I've come to talk about. Over the year, I've been introduced to several kinds of tv shows, movies, etc. The funny is, I never expected in a million years that I would love this things as much as I do now. Now that I do, I feel an urge to talk about it.

4. The Star Wars Films.

I'm late to join this fandom by at least a decade, right? Star Wars has always been something I've known about, since I have multiple cousins who have been obsessed with it since the dawn of time. Maybe because of that, I thought the whole thing was a little nerdy. But a few months ago, I convinced Ellie and Danny to watch The Revenge of the Sith with me. (Yes, we totally watched it in order) and surprisingly, we all loved it. Of course, Ellie's favorite part was when Annkian Skywalker almost burned to death. So that's why he has the dark suit, helmet, and cape on. It was news to me.

3. When Calls the Heart, a show on Hallmark.
This was probably the most surpring thing because I thought it was a bit lame at first. Historical show and a teacher in Canada and a romance with a handsome Mounty based on Janette Oak's book. Been there, done that. The theme song is even predictable. But to my shock, once Danny and Elle watched it, they were sucked into it almost immediately. Even my brother, Danny, who is tweleve-years-old. And though it took me a tad bit longer, now I have happily joined the bandwagon. Jack Thorton is awesome, but even I don't adore him as much as Ellie and Danny do.  My family practically binge-watched both seasons and after that terrible ending, we are impatiently waiting for the Christmas movie.

2. The New Cinderella Movie.
I got the chance to see this at a football field and it was amaaazing! Cinderella was honestly my least favorite Princess growing up. She was much too perfect. And Prince Charming? C'mon. But the movie was spectacular. I absolutely loved Ella and Kip and the messages of love and forgivness it promotes. It was literally flawless. Afterwards, my dad and I danced in the football field like at the ball.

1. Murder She Wrote
I don't watch much new TV so we usually rely on old shows on Netflix for our entertainment. It took me awhile for Danny to convince me to watch Murder She Wrote, but when I did, I was secretly hooked. The plotline is about famous mystery author, Jessica Fletcher, solving a bunch of murders. Though they might not sound that appealing, believe me, it is. And Mrs. Fletcher has become my television role model. She is a best-selling author for one thing and has an almost superhuman ability for noticing things. Anyone who is writing a mystery, or any kind of fiction in general, could probably benefit from watching this show. And get this? Jessica gets so mad when people interrupt her while she's writing! So do I!


So, yes, those are the things that have taken up a lot of my free time. How about you? What do you like to obsess over, even in the business of the school year? I've been watching the Apple Music Festival and so far, it's been pretty awesome to watch:D
