The Emperor's New Groove

This movie is such a hilarious one. My very good friends Lily and Sarah love this movie almost if not as much as Middle Earth related ones ;). There is literally an ENG quote or relative scene for e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g. They made sure I knew that :P.
"WHAT'S HIS NAME?!?!"
"HOH! And then you turned me into a llama!"

Pacha: "Emperor Kuzco?"
Kuzco: "Yeeaach! Who did you think you were talking to!"

"Teeellll me abboouutt it..."
This movie is so hilarious. Yzma is actually one of the best bad "guys" i've ever seen. Kronk is the awkward clumsy henchman that adds so much comedy in dialogue of the movie. Actually Yzma and Kronk are both just utterly hilarious in dialogue. Anyways, Pacha and Kuzco are funny in their "rivalry" and Kuzco's snarky attitude. Kuzco: "So if I were you I would pick up some change of address forms on the way home."

Names

So I've been doing some researching because I write books. I like the names in my books to either sound cool or mean something substantial. When I was writing a book after Frozen came out, I decided use some names from that movie. I looked up what they meant, and it turns out it's pretty amazing.
For example...Elsa means "promise of God"
That's pretty amazing for a Disney princess movie. Elsa
is a derivative of the Biblical name Elizabeth.
Anna is also a Biblical name that means "grace".
Hans is another name. I liked the meaning for "Hans" and
"Elsa" the most. Hans means "God is merciful". It's interesting how
DISNEY! OF ALL PLACES...uses names that refer to God, in their
biggest hit...hmm.

Save a Life- Manic Drive

Oh just picture it a little girl just a beautiful 8-year old,
Trying to live through this life in a crazy world,





Years past and one bad move she finds herself as a teen and her life in ruin
What would have happened if we stopped and took the time,
Showed the girl she had a meaning and a purpose to life,
Maybe avoid that downward slide, would you tell her the truth,

Or let her live in a lie.
So would you save a life, save a life
If it was do or die would you save a soul, save a soul.

If you're the hands and the arms that reach, 

Would you save a life from drowning?

Would you cry out if it was the moment of truth,
Would you reach out if there was something to lose,
Life or death would you take a deep breath

And dive in to

save a life that needs to be rescued.
We'd prevent it if we just explained about the
tides,

and undertows,

and deadly waves.
We could save a life before it needs to be saved, Why
wait for tomorrow what we can do today.



Forgiveness (feat. Lecrae)-Tobymac


Cause we all make mistakes sometimes,
And we all step across that line, 
But nothing's sweeter than the day we find, we find.
 It's hangin over him like the clouds of Seattle,
Rainin on is swag, fallin deeper in the saddle,

It's written on his face, he don't have to speak a sound,
Somebody call the five-o 
We gotta man down
Now you can go and play like it's all rock and roll,
But guilt does a job on each and every man's soul,

And when your head hits the pillow at the nightfall,
You can bet your life that it's gonna be a fight y'all.
Cause we all make mistakes sometimes, and we all step across
that line, but nothings sweeter than the day when we find, 
Forgiveness, forgiveness.
And we all stumble and we fall,

Bridges burn in the heat of it all,

But nothing's sweeter than the day, sweeter than the day, we call out for,

Forgiveness.

*Mr. Lecrae*

My mama told what I would be in for,
If I kept my anger inside of me pent up,
My heart been broken, my wounds been open, I don't know if I can hear "I'm sorry" being spoken.
But those who are forgiven much, 
Should be quicker to give it,
And God forgave me for it all, Jesus bled forgiveness
So when the stones fly, and they aimed at you,
Just say "forgive them, Father, they know not what they do".

Now you can go and play like it's all rock and roll, 

but guilt does a job on each and every man's soul

And when your head hits the pillow at the nightfall 

You can bet your life that it's gonna be a fight y'all.
Cause we all make mistakes sometimes,

And we all step across that line, 
But nothings sweeter than the day we find, 

Forgiveness, forgiveness.
And we all stumble and we fall,

Bridges burn in the heat of it all,

But nothing's sweeter than the day we call

out for forgiveness, forgiveness.
No matter how lost you are, 

You're not that far, you're not too far.
No matter how hurt you are,

You're not that far, you're not too far.
No matter how wrong you are,

You're not that far, you're not too far. 
No matter who you are,
You're not that far, you're not too far.
From forgiveness.
Ask for forgiveness.
