If you were to judge your favorite book by its cover, would you still read it?
This is my favorite book by the cover…
…and yes, I am still reading it after all these years. ❤
Day: March 27, 2017
Positive Monday: Grab your coffee and let’s start the day right.
It’s Monday, yo!
I know Monday might be the least happiest day of the week for many of us, but it always comes back around and we still have to wake up to face the day and deal with it. Instead of groaning about it, let’s grab our coffee (or tea or water or milk)…

… and let’s be thankful for this day. You woke up, you have breath (glory be to God!) and most importantly, YOU’RE ALIVE. So use this as an advantage to conquer the day. Don’t listen to other people’s Monday gripes because today’s going to be a great day!
It’s Monday and ain’t nothing wrong with that. It’s a fresh start. Stay positive and think about all the amazing things God is going to do for you this week.
And remember, it’s a great day to be alive!

Let’s get made; American Made!
“I love stories of improbable heroes working against the system, and Barry Seal took the government, and our country, for an unbelievable ride. Interpreting his story has the makings for an entertaining film that is equal parts satire, suspense and comedy—and always surprising.”
Doug Liman
Originally titled Mena, American Made is set to hit the big screen on September 29th, 2017 and I’ll just have to bear it and wait patiently (Originally, it was supposed to have a Jan 2017 release). I’ve read Seal’s story and I’ve been excited for the film since filming began in 2015.
This is the movie I’m most excited about for 2017!
The film is set in the 1980s.
Tom Cruise will play Barry Seal, a hustler and American pilot who gets coaxed by the CIA into participating in a covert operation that involved Seal going from drug smuggler to drug informant. While working for the CIA, he spied on the infamous Medellin Cartel, including leader Pablo Escobar, during the height of 1980s cocaine drug trafficking. He also ended up involved in Nicaraguan and Contra politics, which played a role in the Reagan Administration’s Iran-Contra scandal.
‘The exciting thing to me is to get into a life and death situation,’
Barry Seal
Known as a rebel adventurer, Seal was the first American to see the inner workings of the powerful Medellin cartel. He was fearless while undercover and his inside information led to prosecutions. At that time, the Drug Enforcement Administration was battling the cocaine explosion.
A price was put on his head for turning federal witness and Seal died in a hail of bullets at the hands of Colombian hitmen. *Cringes*
And TC does justice to any uniform he puts on. This time, a pilot’s…
The film is directed by Doug Liman, who previously collaborated with TC on Edge of Tomorrow. TC always want to give the audience their money’s worth and this film is going to be a masterpiece if things go according to Seal’s story. TC had to gain weight for the role for Barry Seal weighed 280+ pounds and was known as ‘El Gordo’ (The Fat Man), but the actor did not pile on the pounds.

I like what I’ve seen of TC’swardrobe so far on the set:
The brown leather jacket has already gotten rave reviews and many people are asking where they can order it.
