Best Places to Travel, Before You Die

#5 London
Who doesn’t love British boys? Isn’t that where One Direction is from? Just kidding, boys shouldn’t be the only reason you should go to London. London has a lot of history in it and the places are beautiful. You must go see the London Eye, the large Ferris Wheel near the River Thames. You should also ride a boat on the River Thames because it is just so cool. Make sure you visit Buckingham Palace, the Queen’s home. The golden doors are such a sight to see. If you get lucky, you might catch a glimpse of the royal family. And last but not least, make sure you see the Big Ben. 
#4 Paris
When you think Paris, you think Eiffel Tower. I’d say that Paris is the most romantic place ever. It is a city that’s just so beautiful. Make sure you visit the Eiffel Tower at night too! It is breath taking. Also the Louvre Museum is located in Paris. Go see the Mona Lisa. The museum is beautiful, even though you’re not a great appreciator of art. The guards are so strict that they don’t even let you take pictures of the Mona Lisa. And of course, the best part: shopping. What is Paris without shopping? Go shop and the Champs Elysees! Buy all the designer bags you want. Shop til you drop! And while you’re there, catch a glimpse of the Arc de Triomphe! It’s so beautiful.
#3 Rome
Ciao! Boy, do I love the food from Rome. The home of the spaghetti! All types of pasta are just phenomenal. Make sure you eat as much pasta as you can! And of course, gelato! Rome has the best gelato one can dream of. There are so many unique flavors that you wouldn’t even think that they are flavors! Visit the Colosseum. It’s so beautiful and has so much history in it. It may not seem as interesting, but you’re in Rome- it’s a must to see it! Also, visit the Trevi Fountain. That fountain is just pure beauty. You’ll never see something so beautiful. Throw a coin in the fountain and make a wish! It just might come true. Visit the Vatican, as well! Did you know that it is the smallest city in the world??? And of course, shopping! Go to Via Condotti There are so many shops there. I’m sure you’ll find anything you’re looking for. In the middle of Via Condotti are the Spanish Steps. Make sure you visit that too! It’s a great place to take photos. Rome is such a beautiful and romantic place to be.
#2 Japan
You like sushi don’t you? Well here is the home of sushi! No sushi is better than the sushi in Japan. You probably like shrimp tempura and teriyaki chicken too, right? Well you can find that here too! Personally, I loved Japan for the food. 
#1 China
Go to China and see one of the Seven Wonders of the World: the Great Wall of China. The Wall is so long, but such a sight to see! Although it’s tiring to walk, it’s so worth it! Make sure you take a lot of pictures. Chinese food is really good, too. The thing with Chinese food though is either you like it or you don’t. So hopefully Chinese food floats your boat. Also, since you’re there, go to Hong Kong: the shopping capital of Asia. There are so many things you can buy, for a cheap price too.

My Collections: To Tell If Someone Is Lying

My Collections: To Tell If Someone Is Lying: #8 Eye Contact, Rumor always is if you cannot make eye contact with somebody while talking to them, you feel too bad saying it to ...

To Tell If Someone Is Lying

#8 Eye Contact,


Rumor always is if you cannot make eye contact with somebody while talking to them, you feel too bad saying it to their face. If you notice somebody focusing on something else or a different object nearby, chances are that person is lying about what he is telling you.

#7 Distraction Levels,

When somebody is either standing or sitting in front of you and you suspect that he/she is lying, pay attention to the way in which they are speaking to you. When somebody is too focused or appears to be interested in something else, the chances that they are saying lies to just end the conversation with you is extremely high. Pay attention to their body language and how they are listening/talking to you.

#6 Body Language,

Pay attention to the person you are speaking to. If that person displays a negative body language, the likelihood of that person putting all of their meaning and effort into the conversation is highly unlikely, and that person would have no issue in ending the sentence or conversation through lying, or saying what the person wants to say.

#5 Level of Cooperation,
According to a professional psychologist named Bella M. Depaulo, “Liars are noticeably less cooperative than truth-tellers.” If somebody seems to have to have zero interest or ‘pleasantness’, chances are they will be more likely to lie. People who make negative statements towards whatever that topic is are more likely to lie their way to finishing a project or getting out of a situation.

#4 The Way He or She Talks,
Do you ever notice when the person’s voice level changes, whether it be volume or pitch? When this happens, psychologists believe it could be a result in lying, which affects the nervous system, thereby raising and lowering the pitch in which that person is talking.

#3 Size of The Person’s Pupil,
The size of the person’s pupils can be correlated with lying due to the nervous system, just like pitch and volume of speech is. Look into the person’s eyes to see if their pupils have excessively dilated; it is an extremely common phenomena amongst liars.

#2 Ask the Question Again,
If you think somebody is lying to you, ask the question again. Chances are if they were lying, the person will make a mistake and tell you something different than the first time. This can be tested by simply saying, “I’m sorry, but what did you tell me a few minutes earlier, I forgot?” A simple question like this is not rude to ask, and can be used to determine if somebody lied to you earlier.

#1 Constant Fidgeting,
Moving around in a seat, tapping your pencil, or tapping your fingers; these are all examples of fidgeting that normal people occasionally do periodically. Whether it be nerve, excitement, or anything else which results in the rapid movement of legs or arms or fingers, fidgeting is also correlated with lying. If a person is lying, he or she may be moving or tapping unnecessarily while they are lying.

Holiday Gift Ideas



#5 Homemade Goodies,

Homemade stuff is a great gift. Although it is small, the person will know that still thought about them when you make them something. Ideas of homemade stuff can be Christmas cookies, handmade bracelets or necklaces, or even something simple like a picture of you and your friend in a decorated frame. And it you cannot afford anything at the time, a great gift is just a card saying Happy Holidays and a note to them. This is a good gift because it shows that you still care for your friend and it is the thought that counts right?!
#4 Accessories,
Accessories are a great holiday gift because it is easy to get and everyone likes accessories. Accessories could be knit winter scarves, beanies, or even jewelry. Scarves and beanies are perfect for winter holiday gifts because they can use it right away and you know it won’t go to waste. When you buy these accessories, make sure you get something they like. A lot of people’s mistake is that they get stuff that they like and their friend might not like it. Beanies are a great gift for your guy friends because they will most likely wear the beanie. For jewelry, this is great for adults or teenagers. You can get cheap jewelry at Forever 21 and it is still cute.
#3 Electronics,

When people think electronics, they probably think something expensive. However, you can get your friends cheap headphones or phone cases. This is a great gift because most of your friends have phones and listen to music so that is a great present. It won’t go to waste because they will for sure use it. A nice phone case is a great gift because it can be cheap and if your friend doesn’t have a case it can come in handy.
#2 Music, Books, or Art supplies,

If your friend is very artistic, musical, or loves reading, then your friend would love to get a present like a CD by their favorite musician, their favorite book, or art supplies like paint. This is a great gift if you know your friend really well and you know what they love to do. This is a for sure way to get something they would like. Or if they have a favorite musician you could get them a poster or a shirt with their favorite person on it. Your friends will be so excited when they open your present and they see something they love. If you don’t know what they like a good gift could be a gift card to their favorite book store or even iTunes, they could pick their own things to buy.
#1 Beauty Supplies,
If you have a friend and she loves make up, this is a great present. They have a lot of makeup sets during the holiday season because beauty stores know that make up is one must have a girl needs. A great inexpensive makeup brand if Elf from Target and their makeup holiday sets are a great gift. Or if you want high end makeup a great place to buy some is Ulta or Sephora. They have great sets and it comes with a bunch of high end make up but for a discounted price because it is in a set. If your friend loves to paint their nails, there are a lot of nail polish sets you could buy. The great thing about the holiday season is that they always come up with sets so it makes it a lot easier to buy presents. You could also get your friend their favorite perfume or cologne, which is a great gift because you know it will be something they will use.

Most Anticipated Films of 2015

#10 Assassin’s Creed


Movies based on video games haven’t been too popular as of yet. Will Assassin’s Creed be the first? With the increasingly improved graphics and the scenes looking like a film, how hard can the process be? Michael Fassbinder, who will star in the movie signed on based on the idea behind the film, without having played the game!

#9 Cinderella

The dark versions of fairy tales have not hit with audiences, so Kenneth Branagh creating a straight story which is a great change. With many well-known actors taking the stage, let’s hope it'll be a hit!

#8 Frankenstein

We all know Daniel Radcliffe as Harry Potter but this can be his big break out of the role. Paul Maguire’s cinematic re-interpretation was recently pushed into 2015 to give it some separation from other Frankenstein productions, this film however has a twist. It will focus on Igor.

#7 Inside Out

This film will show the journey of a preteen girl hurtling towards puberty while also moving cities with her family from Minnesota to San Francisco. The movie will take place in her mind with each emotion is represented by a character, for example anger a red square.

#6 Warcraft

You may be wondering how two video games can make it onto this list. Well, Duncan Jones, with a brilliant mind with regards to science fiction and fantasy says that Warcraft will be a hardcore fantasy epic based on the 90s version of World of Warcraft, and there will be everything in this film.

#5 Jurassic World

It’s been about two decades since the original Jurassic Park, which was a huge hit. It has the potential be a mesmerizing IMAX, 3D blockbuster. If that wasn't enough, the cast line up should tickle your taste buds, but that is all I'll say.

#4 Ant-Man

Another expansion of the Marvel Universe, Ant-Man is particularly compelling because of the “geekiness”aspect of it. It won’t be a super high grossing film like that of Iron Man, but it should make geeks very happy. So yay, go geeks!

#3 Batman vs. Superman

The most talked about movie on the Internet now, pitting two of the most loved superheroes against each other. Will Ben Affleck prove everyone wrong, and be a sensational batman? There are rumors that filming has already started. It can only be epic.

#2 Star Wars VII

J.J. Abram will direct, and it will be a continuation from the extremely successful previous editions. Chewbacca is likely to star, which will please his fans. Saoirse Ronan has auditioned for a role, John Williams will compose the score, and it will be filmed in the UK. Other than that there's not much we know right now, but within two years, all will be revealed.

#1 Avengers: Age of Ultron

Our personal favorite and I am sure the favorite of most people. New characters are to be introduced including "The Scarlet Witch" and "Quicksilver". We have such great expectations for the sequel of a film that is the third highest grossing movie of all time. Don't disappoint us!!!
