10 Things I learned from watching RuPaul's Drag Race

As some of you may know, I am deeply obsessed with RuPaul's Drag Race. With Season 8 and the 100th episode airing today, I've decided to express my emotions through a FABULOUS AND SICKENING LIST! Here is what this show has done for me. 10. Believe in Your Craft; WORK IT OUT! Sometimes, we wish we could pull off things we don't think we are good at. But hey, no one has to know what a wreck you are. COMMIT TO YOUR LOOK. Commit to your talent, and commit to yourself. Once you do, no one can come for you baby. You've got this in the bag. Unless you cause a total car crash and piss off Mama Ru. 9. You're more than just a pretty face Although to be a successful drag queen one must master the art of giving GOOD FACE, Mama Ru has taught me that it takes more than just FACE to be a drag superstar. While looking for Charisma, Uniqueness, Nerve, and Talent, you have to remember that even though you may not be good at something, if you apply the Force of th...

Shows to Cuddle and Binge During Winter Break

For all you lucky ones that get to stay in when the weather is perfect for hot chocolate and your San Marcos. For all of those who already binged Narcos, OITNB, and Game Of Thrones is getting on your last nerve. For all of those that know movies are not enough to feed your hunger of relentless binging. I give you a list of unorganized genres of shows that you can make your way into. You're welcome god damn it. The Leftovers (HBO) Where Can I Watch This? HBOGo , HBONow,  or you know, you'll find a way for your HBO shows. Why Should I Watch This?  I was really hesitant on this show since season one first started. When you hear the word "rapture" you immediately try to link it to the bible, and some of us are just not interested in anything related to religion. Surprisingly, this show isn't Christian at all. In fact, it could use a little Jesus to save them. On a typical day (October the 14th to be exact) people just disappear out of thin air and no on...

30 Days of Idanya: Day 1

Since I've been wanting to do some of these challenges, I finally found myself on day one of a month. Since the month of November is composed of 30 days, I am gonna take advantage to talk about things I love the most through a series of questions. Because I obviously can't come up with topics myself. Get to know me better! I'm pretty awesome. Challenges I will be doing: RuPaul's Drag Race Films Songs TV Shows RuPaul's Day 1 - Most Loved Queen Katya Zamolodchikova This is no surprise to most -  Екатерина Петровна Замолодчикова,  but you can call her KATYA. Real name is Brian McCook, which is not Russian at all, yet very Boston-y. To be completely honest, the first time I saw her on the promo for season 7, I was so over her. What a fucking weirdo! Yet when she made her entrance in her Russian get up, talking about stuff that doesn't make sense, I was alright with her. Then when Snatch Game came up, she opened up on TV. Her depression, her su...

10 Movies With Awesome Soundtracks

Soundtracks can make a movie twice as better than they actually are, or complete it. Some movies on the other hand may have a good compilation of songs, but still suck! I've decided to make a list of at least ten of my favorite movies that made it WORK. It was just going to be 7, but I'm a movie vagabunda. Sweeties, darlings, get your Spotify playlist ready! 10. Boyhood (2014) Yellow by Coldplay The scene where Mason is staring at the sky at the beginning while Yellow is playing is one of the most resonating parts from this movie. It really is a strong start, but if you ask me if I like this movie in general, I'll give you a straight up hell no. Some for personal reasons, but mostly because it flat lined so hard after he grew up to be a typical teenage hipster in Texas. Linklater may be a favorite for most movie buffs. To me, nothing gets better than Dazed and Confused . Just like Natural Born Killers and Oliver Stone, but that's just me sliding off topic....

Movie Talk: The Five Movies for Grieving After You've Been Dumped

So you just got dumped by the person you loved. They didn't want to put up with you anymore because you're too much for the normies. You're beaten down and broken. Your friends try to cheer you up and it helps until they go on about themselves and forget you even exist. You just want to lay in bed and drown your heart  with dark chocolate and diet cherry coke, trying to make sense out of life, and thinking you should just marry your mattress instead. Then your friends wanna give you all of these ridiculous Rom Com recommendations which work for your typical girl night. You go from He's Just Not That Into You, to  Some Kind Of Wonderful and it just leaves you more hurt and confused than before. Am I Watts or Amanda? Is Jake Ryan even real life? Rom Coms are only fun when you have someone in your life, but since it's the other way around you know you must go through the five stages of grief that come with heartbreak. And so I give you a reality check. You're welc...

Movie Talk: Gone Girl

Gone Girl "What are you thinking about, Amy?" I saw this movie back in the beginning of October, and I must admit that I am not over it. This has got to be the movie that changed my perspective towards a lot of things in 2014. First of all - How amazingly brilliant yet totally psychotic was this girl? There was a lot of conflict towards this character. Saying she "ruined feminism." In my opinion, she stepped it up. Why was it so wrong that she succeeded in her plan? If it had been a man, they would applaud him. She was just too damn smart for everyone, and it made them angry. I loved it nonetheless. I'm not justifying her actions, but she's seriously a master mind at revenge and ruining lives. Also, the whole knowing your significant other goes a long way. Just goes to show that we never truly know even the closest to us. David Fincher, you deserve it all for this genuine masterpiece.

song is on my mind

The Verve - Bittersweet Symphony Words cannot explain how I feel right now, but I can try. I feel like this huge chunk of negativity in me has been transplanted off my chest, my mind, my heart, my life. Everyday, there was this bit in me that made me miserable, and I never quite now how to rid myself from it. I tried, but to no avail. It grew worse and worse, and it was affecting my daily life, my relationship, and my happiness most of all. Today, I talked it out of me. It came out of my throat, slid through my tongue, and presented itself out of my mouth. I have this very bad tendency of holding all of my rancor and thoughts inside, and never really talking them through with people. I will literally hold a lot of things to my grave, or at least until they become irrelevant. Not today. It is strange how I was just thinking about how much harm this negativity was creating, and how I must seek relief. The only way was to either, a) talk about it, or, b) finish things. I grew the cou...
