Review: Frozen

Hi everyone,
My friend Laura and I went to see Frozen during the Christmas holidays and it was so good I thought I just had to do a review of it.
OK, so the first thing I would like to point out is that the songs where amazing in this film, like every disney film there are songs and like all disney songs they were all catchy and related to freedom and love and stuff.
On Rotten Tomato it was given 4.3 stars by the audience and 7.8/10 by film critics which is super awesome.
By the way, you will come to see that my vocabulary is very restricted ;)
If you don't know what Frozen is about it is about two sisters called Elsa and Anna. Elsa has magical powers to do with ice and winter but to protect Anna she is kept from this information. The movie is about Elsa becoming queen and accidently sending the whole kingdom into an eternal winter so Anna and her friend must find Elsa and convince her to come back and help them get rid of the winter.
 Like every film there is a "baddie" but I won't tell you who that is as it is a huge shock and I will leave you to find out by yourself.
I hope this was useful and I inspired you to go and watch the film!

Review: iPod nano 7th Generation

Hi everyone,
Sorry for not uploading my what I got for Christmas blog: it's taking ages! But one of the things I got for christmas is the iPod nano 7th Generation so I thought I would do a short review on this separately.

I had the green one and it is very small, pretty much the size of my palm.
I will start with the good:

  • At just 5.4mm thin — and about the size of a credit card — the new iPod nano is the thinnest iPod ever made. 
  • The 2.5-inch Multi‑Touch display is nearly twice as big as the display on the previous iPod nano so you can view your photos better.
  • It has tons of memory: 14.7 GB which may not sound a lot but it goes a very long way.
The bad:
  • The battery can go down very quickly.
  • The background can be only the colour you have the nano itself in. I have the green one which is really nice but not so nice as a background, in my opinion.
The apps include: Music, Photos, Radio, Podcasts, Fitness+, Clock, Videos and Settings.

I am going to go through each individually:

Music
The music app has genius mixes, playlists, artists, albums, songs, genres, composers, compilations (whatever that is) audiobooks, podcasts and iTunes U. With all this it is easy to find the song you want, especially with artists, songs and albums done alphabetically. As you play the song it says who it is by, song track title, album title and a picture of the album. If you tap the screen it gives you the option to repeat album or song, put it into a genius mix, put nano onto shuffle mode and view album song list where you can rate the album up to five stars.

Photos
You can put photos onto your nano although it doesn't have a camera but beware: it does use up a lot of battery so if you charged it for a long car journey it's probably not the best idea to look at your photos.

Radio
You need to have headphones it for signal but I had a problem when I wanted to listen to Radio 1 to listen the Dan and Phil show: the frequency is 98.8 or something and the nano only has odd numbers so I can't tune into it which has annoyed me.

Podcasts
You can download podcasts on iTunes to put onto your nano but I have found the podcasts options quite limited.

Fitness+
Enter you height, weight and gender and you can put it into your pocket and see how many steps you do that day, for how long, and the calories you burned. There is also a running option where can choose a basic, time, distance or calorie workout. This is a very good app if you walk a lot.

Clock
This has a clock, stopwatch and timer but you can only hear the timer if you have your headphones in because the nano does not have a speaker.

Videos
You can download your favourite family videos or something to watch if you want to, although it is a fairly small screen even if it is the biggest nano screen yet so it may not be very good.

Settings
The is an option to turn bluetooth on and off, general (where you can get your information about your nano, adjust the brightness, wallpaper, date&time, language and accessibility), music (shake to shuffle on and off button, sound check on and off, EQ, Volume Limit, Audio Crossfade and Group Compilation), Video (Where for the video to start playing from: from beginning or where left off), radio (radio regions and live pause on and off button), photos (timer per slide, repeat on and off, and shuffle photos on and off) and an option to reset the settings incase anything goes drastically wrong and you have no idea which option it was.

Hope some of you found that useful!
