Happy New Year Welcome to the first week of the most lit year so far!

IT'S 2017!!!!

Can y'all believe it! I'm crazy excited that we're here. I know 2016 sucked for a lot of people. They even compared it to Voldemort.

I speak his name! He dead!

But, for me, it was a great building block into new, better habits, blogging, and writing. I come into 2017 haven eaten my black-eyed peas ready to start fresh.

See, smilng faces!!

Anywho, ​I had been wrestling all week about a best and worst of 2016.

With honorable mention going to Moonlight, Fences, and The Handmaiden, I realized there's enough white people patting the backs of the other white people and you can find that information anywhere, hell, everywhere else.

​Literally, everywhere else.

AND ALSO....

​THIS IS THE MOVIE YOU NEED TO BE FOCUSING ON:

Y'ALL!!

This movie is starting the new year off RIGHT!

This untold story about the black women who put our NASA program on the map is something EVERYONE needs to see, because it's not a movie just for black people. It's a movie about America's history! It wasn't just about black and white. It was about making HISTORY!

And yes, I've already written a review about it, but oh well. Get over it. Or read it in full here.

This movie is wonderfully made, wonderfully cast, and beautifully presented. I've already seen it twice and have plans to see it again!

Hidden Figures is now in theatres everywhere, so get your butt in a seat and go see it!
