I cannot believe this is the first Daily Show video I am posting. For the last year or two Jenn and I religiously watch The Daily Show. It has become our go to dinner show. How can you go wrong, political satire, comedy, and a great interview.

Today is my birthday. I'm 27 years old and I'm in a reflective mood. A few weeks ago (7/17) I woke up in the middle of the night feeling dreadful. I knew right away given my chills that I had a fever. I went back to sleep hoping that would be the cure, but woke up with a 102 fever. 

Outside of video games, audiobooks, and TV shows, I'm also a sucker for a great movie. With each summer there seems to be even better movies to get excited about, and the summer of 2013 is no exception.  

It doesn't happen often but every once in a while a movie comes out and shocks you. That was exactly the case with The Perks of Being a Wallflower. I rented it as a simple Redbox pickup for a Friday night where Jenn and I didn't have much going on. When we finished the movie we both knew we had just watched something epic. The movie had an incredible pace, an important message, and the perfect cast. You can relate to the characters, you feel for them, and you care what happens in the end. I loved The Perks of Being a Wallflower and can't wait to watch it again and again. 

A few weeks ago Jenn and I decided that we needed to start doing some quick weekend getaways. Didn't even have to be overnight we just wanted to get out of our Newport Beach/ Irvine comfort zone. We live in Orange County and there are some beautiful places near by so we decided lets go on a small adventure and just see what's happening in Laguna.

Last year Jenn and I did our first ever "favorite things" list from the year. Unlike my Year-In-Review which more gives a high level summary of the year, our favorite things goes to the stuff that we liked throughout the year whether it be TV, Music, Movies, Games, etc. 

So we are back now with our favorite things from 2012!
