  • Starlight Drive-In Theater

    Starlight Drive-In Theatre

    Atlanta GA

    By: Cece Hymes

    Got a chance to do another thing off my bucket list in the Atlanta area. This was great. It shows multiple screen drive-ins located in Atlanta GA. You can see current and upcoming movies. I went to see John Wick, it was a little dark, but you can see everything that’s going on. The movie was great.

    One thing I like about this place is that it’s not expensive, you can watch 2 movies for the price of one. Another thing I like is that you can hear it well in your car and bring your own snacks and can talk with other people in the car. The down part is that you have to keep your car running, you don’t want to run your battery dead.  They do sell popcorn and things.

    It is definitely something to try out and different. I am glad I was able to try it out and knock something else off my bucket list. Make sure to check it out and let me know what you think. Also, follow me @Cece.atlbucketlist and @Cece.Atl.

     

  • Kennesaw Mountain

    Kennesaw Mountain

    Atlanta GA

    By: Cece Hymes

    I got a chance to go to Kennesaw Mountain which is beautiful. Kennesaw Mountain is a mountain between Marietta and Kennesaw, Georgia with a summit elevation of 1808 feet.  It is the highest point in the core metro Atlanta area.  It has great trails all over the mountain. Its view is nice, and a lot of beautiful birds were out on this nice day.

    This was on my bucket list, and I was glad that I was able to go and see the scenery. I want to try different nature walks and mountains. I didn’t go to the top, but the view is great.

    Make sure to check it out and let me know what you love about Kennesaw Mountain. Also, follow me @Cece.atlbucketlist and Cece.Atl 

  • First (Poetry)

    Title: First

    By: Cece Hymes

    First things first
    We put ourselves first
    Once you learn this step
    We get what we deserve
    And nothing less

    Happiness and joy
    Love and peace
    Thats what we need
    And what to believe

    I want you first
    To open your eyes
    Tell me what you see
    And whats your dream

    This is your year
    I want you to see
    You can do anything that you want
    If you just believe

    But first thing first
    You got to start
    Remember everything
    Starts with you
    So just pursue

    This is my first poem
    For the year and this is
    Just for you

  • About Me (Poetry)

    Title: About Me

    By: Cece Hymes

    What about me
    That you see
    That makes me special
    And unique

    Is it my mind
    Is it my body
    Is it my soul
    Or is it just all 3

    I look in the mirror
    And ask what it is about me
    I look back and tell myself
    It’s everything

    Your mind is creative
    Your body is an art
    Your soul is deep
    And you ask
    What about me

    So what about me
    I am amazing
    I am beautiful
    And I am unique

    So what about me
    If you want to know more
    Come and see
    It’s worth knowing
    What it is about me

  • Deaf Utopia

    Book: Deaf Utopia

    Author:  Nyle DiMarco

    By: Cece Hymes

    Got a chance to read this book by Nyle DiMarco. I don’t know what made me pick this book. I didn’t even know who he was, but I wanted to learn more about his journey. This book taught me more about his life and the deaf community. I know in school I learned the alphabet in sign language and glad I do. This book taught me  to learn more about their community and about their life.

    Nyle DiMarco is amazing, he did not let anything stop him from being him and reaching his dreams. He won on the reality shows America’s Next Top Model and Dancing with the Stars. He started and didn’t know anything about modeling and dancing but took a chance and learned what to do and put his all into it.

    His Mom was so strong and raised her 3 boys to be the best men and to show them that they are awesome and just like everyone else. They can do anything they put their mind to. I love to read about people’s journeys and what they have been through. Nyle and his family have been through a lot but no matter what they did they did not give up.

    I also learned in this book that we all should treat people right and with positive vibes. It’s a lot of people that can teach you a lot about the culture and the community. Have an open mind. Also, I love that Nyle is happy with who he is and is very creative.

    Make sure to check out the book and tell me what you think. Also, make sure to follow Cece Book Club and Cece.Atl

    By: Cece Hymes

    Brad Pitt is an actor and film producer. He is one of my favorites. He is one of the most powerful and influential people in the entertainment industry. One of my favorite movies by him is Mr.& Mrs. Smith. The Chemistry he and Angelina had in that movie was awesome. Here are some of the other movies he starred in.

    ·         Thelma & Louise

    ·         Seven

    ·         12 Monkeys

    ·         Ocean’s Eleven

    He has acted in many more films and has won many awards. He can pull off any look in any film. Brad has been going through a lot with his two exes and divorce. Even though you see him in the media a lot, you see him with his kids. I love how all of them are growing up in their own style.

    I got to give him his roses today. He has been in the industry for a long time and has played every role to the T. HE is one of my favorites. Hope he has nothing but peace and happiness and can’t wait to see what’s next for him.

    Brad Pitt was named to be one of the 25 sexiest men alive. He is definitely a nice-looking man. Tell me what movie you enjoyed with Brad Pitt in the film. Also, make sure to follow me @Cece.Atl.
