A Christmas Story The Musical Review (Blogmas 2015 #15)

http://www.liveatthemusichall.com/event/a-christmas-story-the-musical/
     Disclaimer:  I AM OBSESSED WITH THIS MOVIE AND MUSICAL SO JUST A WARNING THERE IS GOING TO BE A LOT OF FANGIRLING IN THIS POST!

First here is the trailer for the show:

      I. love. a. christmas. story. the. musical. The actors, the story, the songs, I love it all! Not to brag, but I have 3 members of the original cast following me on instagram,including one of my favorite actors ever Johnny Rabe!
       So I saw the touring cast of this show, not one of the two other casts, but it was actually the best day of my life! Before I went to see the show, I didn't really know too much about Broadway, or the show, I just knew I loved the movie. So one day I decided "hey, let's look up behind the scenes of the musical".  And there it happened, the second I listened to Ralphie To The Rescue, I was hooked. Just like that my obsession with Broadway, and theatre begun. I sprouted the dream to become an actress, and decided that I was going to spend my whole life making that dream come true! This musical truly changed my life. If it wasn't for this show I wouldn't love Broadway, and be working towards going to college for theatre. But enough about me, lets talk about the amazingness (yes I did just make up a word) of this show.
      So this show was nominated for a few Tony Awards (Oscar's for Broadway) including Best Musical in 2013 . It even performed at the Tony's as you can watch below!
      The story for the show is very amazing, it's funny, and it sends a great message! It is a movie if you didn't know! It is on Netflix, and it is no joke on TV all day long on Christmas, it is just played on repeat. It is one of the funniest shows ever, and it is perfect for people of all ages! There is jokes in there for everyone!
      The music is one of my favorite parts of the show! I listen to this album all year round! It got to the point where I had to delete it off my phone one summer because I was only listening to that album, and nothing else! Click here for a playlist of all the songs! My favorite song is probably Ralphie To The Rescue, or Somewhere Hovering Over Indiana, but it is extremely hard to choose! They are all so amazing, they are the stereotypical Broadway songs, since they are all so happy! Warning: The songs may make you want to sing, and dance! Or become an actor!
      The overall production was just magical! The set was super professional! It looked like a cozy home! The songs were complete with dance numbers, and great costumes! They actually had real live dogs, playing the neighbors hounds, and they were very well trained!
       If you love the movie, you will 100% love the show! It has everything you love in the movie, in the show! There is even a leg lamp kick line! All of your favorite lines turn into a song for example, Major Award/You'll Shoot Your Eye Out! It is so well done it is worth the money! If you have the chance to see this show you need to go right now, and watch it! Or if you can't see it at least listen to the soundtrack, watch the videos, and watch the movie!

Dual Action Moisturizer (Which is better? On Brand Or OffBrand? #2)(Blogmas 2016 #4)

      A post that I am very proud of, and that many of you wonderful readers really seemed to enjoy, was my Which Is Better? On Brand, or Off Brand Beauty Blender Edition . I decided to make it a little series because I realize that I love a good dupe, and I want you to join in my journey to great dupes! So welcome to another On-Brand or Off-Brand post!        I think every person can agree that moisturizer is something that is a necessity in a skincare routine, especially in this upcoming winter season! I know in the winter I get very dry skin, and I know that moisturizer can get quite expensive, so I thought I would try out a store brand moisturizer, and compare it to a Clean and Clear moisturizer that I already knew I loved.      These are the two moisturizers that I will be comparing in this post! The clean and clear advantage dual action moisturizer (I know this one is slightly different but I have used both!), and the Walmart...

Life Is Happening RIGHT NOW

           One thing that I have really discovered about myself within the past year is that I am way too focused on the future. I often find myself planning my future down to the last detail, and daydreaming.               But let me tell you something. This does not get you anywhere. I realized that I was legitimately spending my life just thinking about a life I dreamed of and planning my future in my mind. However, I soon came to realize that life is happening right now. I am living a wonderful, beautiful, and amazing life now, and if I keep daydreaming excessively I will be living more in my fantasy than in my reality. Though this may sound great, reality is truly wonderful.                I soon began to realize, 'oh dang, I must stop daydreaming'. So that is what I did. I prayed, and I worked hard to stop my daydreaming tendencies. Now I have severely cut down the amount of t...

How I Have Deepened My Faith

            A few months ago God truly found me. I knew I wanted to start a relationship with God and with Jesus,but I did not how to begin this faithful journey in my life. However, here I am a few months later and I feel more spiritual than ever. I know I still have a lot to learn,but you always do when it comes to Christ. Here are my tips for starting a relationship with Christ. 1. Pray This is so simple ,but so true. I pray so much. I pray every morning when I wake up to thank God for a safe night. I pray when I am aware I have sinned. I pray before I, or my family eats. I pray before I go to bed. I pray a lot in between. Praying does not have to be a set prayer, you can legitimately just talk to God. It takes a little bit of getting used to, but you get the hang of it as you practice. Remember God knows that you are new to this, and he knows that you are trying and he will help you to learn to pray better. Remember, do not just pray for things, pr...
