There's More to Life than Being Hot!

Lately, on Facebook, I have been seeing statuses from guys saying, "I hate hoes," or "Why does every girl I date turn out to be a hoe?" and even chain photos that say something along the lines of, "Why do girls always cheat or break up with the nice guys?"

Frankly, I think all of these guys posting these things are a bunch of idiots! It doesn't take rocket science to figure out which girl is most likely using you or going to cheat on you. Just check out the clothes they wear, or their GPA! Before you even post anything like the above examples, you should look a little harder around you and be more mindful of your surroundings. There are plenty of us girls out there who do not fit the description of a hoe and who are instead intelligent, loving, caring, and who just want the chance to even have a boyfriend!

I am not ashamed to admit that it has been four years since I've even been in a relationship and two years since I've been on a date. And I'm also not ashamed to admit that I am a 20-year-old (almost 21 in a month!) virgin! I'm just waiting for the right guy; the right guy who will care about me the way I will care about him.

And guys, you aren't off the hook either. You're just as guilty of judging girls by their appearance, or how hot they are! If that's all you're looking for in a relationship, no wonder you keep getting stuck in horrible situations where you have a bad break up or the girl cheats on you. Personally, I think I'm pretty attractive, but I have yet to meet a guy who outright tells me that he thinks I am! Just because I don't wear revealing outfits and gobs of make up does not mean I'm not "hot!"

The whole point of this post is that I'm sick of guys treating women as objects and thinking that all of us are just stupid bimbos looking for a things like sex and money in a relationship. I'm looking for LOVE!!! It would just be nice if more guys were looking for love too!

Best Movie Makeovers!

I thought I'd start out my blog on a less serious note and instead have a little fun! :)

Here are my picks for the greatest movie makeovers, 1 being the best, and 15 being the lowest.

15. The House Bunny:

  • The sisters of Zeta house get a few fashion and beauty tips from their new house mother, Shelly, a former Playboy bunny! When they walk down the street for the first time with their new, less "nerdy" styles, they make everyone talk!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9A1O8kD2PA
14. Aquamarine:
  • Aquamarine, a mermaid, has only a few days to find true love! But she can't do it looking like a fish out of water, literally! Her makeover consists of getting a whole new wardrobe (with underwear) and dying streaks of blue in her hair! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CIavKkromVc&feature=related
13. Maid in Manhattan:
  • Jennifer Lopez's character goes from a maid to a gorgeous mysterious woman to impress the man she loves who wouldn't be interested in her if he knew she was a maid. Her dress is beautiful, her jewelry expensive, and her hair making any girl jealous! She really knows how to dress to impress when she usually dresses in her work outfit!    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jz3AifnR_2A&feature=related
12. Teen Witch:
  • A teenage witch casts a spell to become popular by looking like a rock star! Needless to say, it works, and she becomes instantly the "it" girl at school! Even if it is kind of considering cheating by casting a spell, she rocks the look!   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCy8y-8FIGk
11. Anastasia:
  • Anastasia, a real-life princess goes from being an orphan who doesn't know who she is to finding her family and the truth to her identity. Along the way, she ditches her short, spunky ponytail, trench coat, and patched clothes and gets into Paris's latest styles of the time period. She truly looks like a Grand Duchess that she was born to be!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJz9gB1mT_4&feature=related
10. Easy A:
  • Okay, so this makeover may not be necessarily for the better since Olive Pendergast goes from a normal girl to dressing let's face it, like a slut! But it's her humor and confidence that makes the whole situation endearing and that makes this makeover hilarious. She embroiders red A's on all of her wardrobe to make a point and dresses in lingerie! I certainly couldn't pull it off! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WEahtZgNpE&feature=related
9. Cinderella:
  • Who can forget this magical makeover? Cinderella literally looks a mess before her fairy godmother shows up to give her glass slippers and a beautiful sparkling gown! She wouldn't have gotten the prince without them!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TKBHJeEljU
8. Earth Girls Are Easy:
7. Clueless:
  • Although I have never seen this movie, I had to add it based on recommendation. Brittany Murphy's character receives a total makeover from fashionista Alicia Silverstone's character who dreams of being a model/fashion designer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBZ9Bgij6VE
6. The Breakfast Club:
  • At the end of this 80's classic, Claire gives Allison a makeover by getting her out of her dull black clothes, revamping her hair, and getting rid of all of her black, gunky eyeliner. This makeover is a success when Andy becomes attracted to her in the end!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAAZ2AZjJYo
5. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire:
  • No one can help getting chills when Hermoine walks down the steps to go to the Yule Ball. Her hairstyle is amazing as well as her dress! Somehow she managed to get her crazy, thick locks into an ingenious hairstyle. And she even got a date with Victor Krum!    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVZ8_t7w1UU&feature=related
4. Grease:
  • Sandy becomes the one that Danny wants when she changes her style to match his. She becomes sexy and spunky from her usual innocence displayed throughout the entire movie. And the song that they sing is the cherry on top! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aataTbxlWeM
3. She's All That:
  • This is a classic scene that will always remind me of my childhood. 90's movies rock! Laney gets a whole new bobbed hairstyle and trendier clothes from her usual frumpy art clothes made for getting dirty with paint. The music in the background, "Kiss Me," by the Cranberries makes the whole scene memorable.   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3r2Ih1-mVs
2. Miss Congeniality:
  • Although Sandra Bullock is by no means ugly, somehow, they managed her to look her worst in this movie before her makeover. Her hair looks like it hasn't been brushed in years, she wears no makeup, and her clothes are very masculine. Despite all this, she doesn't really want to change, but is forced to when she must join a beauty pageant. Vic, a pageant consultant, makes her into a beauty queen literally! Her humor during the whole process of getting the makeover is priceless. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pBsmxemSozw&feature=related
And number 1 is.......

1. The Princess Diaries:
  • Once again, the makers of this movie have managed to make a beautiful actress unattractive by giving her glasses, the biggest hair I've ever seen and the thickest eyebrows I've ever seen. All of this goes away when she finds out she is really the princess of Genovia and must change her look to become the princess she is! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nUjlBP5gUrQ
