Buzz City


I got Charlotte Hornets v. Chicago Bulls tickets around Christmas, thinking that I would finally see Derrick Rose. Well, wouldn't you know it he got injured a couple weeks before the game. But, I went anyway.



Although the Bulls lost, I had a good time and was able to cross it off our bucket list. I haven't been to Charlotte before, so it was a cool change of scenery. 




More from our trip to Charlotte tomorrow!

Who We Are


Autobiographies let you in to the thoughts and ideologies of people that you wouldn't have known about otherwise. It's one thing for a journalist to write about someone else's life and legacy, but it's another to hear from the subjects themselves since they experienced their own life first hand. I spoke about my fandom of One Direction before, so of course when I learned they had a book, I had to read Who We Are. 

The picture of their childhood and on tour was cool and interesting to read. I enjoyed how each band member depicted their experience of One Direction's rise to fame. Each guy had their own influences and road to The X Factor and it was nice to hear how each of them dealt with those transitions. 

Who We Are is a tell-all story of Niall, Zayn, Harry, Louis, and Liam from their start through the premiere of their movie entitled, This Is Us. Which I also own, by the way. I can't help it. They are just so addicting with positive energy flowing through their every bone.
