Megan and Liz: "Wanted" (Hunter Hayes cover)
Megan and Liz are two talented 19-year-old's. Their most recent cover was uploaded today. I have never heard of Hunter Hayes, but I really liked the song. It was beautiful and the lyrics true.
"I want to feel wanted" is summing up what has been on my mind the past few days.

Judges, What Were You Thinking?
A lot of the decisions that the judges of America's Got Talent make I agree with, but there are a few this season that I just do not like nor understand.
Horse is the name of a guy who auditioned and made it to Vegas on AGT. Horse's audition (and what his "talent: is) was taking a hit to his groin without feeling much of anything at all. Not only did this guy get sent through to Vegas and was one of "the judges favorites", but he also got sent through to New York for the live shows. I do not find his act entertaining at all and at most, it is at a middle-school maturity level.
Some great and amazing talents were denied a live spot in New York, yet Mr. Horse got sent through? I am in shock!
Summer Lacy was also sent through to Vegas to audition for the live show in New York. She did not, however, make it through to the live shows. She was sent home. In both of her auditions, Summer Lacy performed an interestingly entertaining acrobatics routine. Both of her routines were beautiful and artistic.

Andrew De Leon surprised America with his amazing and strong voice. Judging from his appearance, I did not expect such a strong voice to be belted out from Andrew. His talent was undeniable and his story heartbreaking. Andrew opened up to the judges that he had never sung in front of anyone before. Ever. Not even his parents. And though he was nervous and it was his first time performing in front of anyone, he nailed his first audition. When Sharon, Howie, and Howard sent Andrew home in Vegas, I admit I was a little upset toward the judges.
However, putting all that aside, I feel there are some very talented acts that will be performing in the Live shows. Spencer Horsman is a handsome young man who happens to also be talented, too. For this season, Spencer has become my AGT crush.
Good luck in New York, Spencer.

BIC Soleil Savvy
Yesterday was my first time using the BIC Soleil Savvy razor that I received in my BzzKit. What this BzzKit included was one (1) BIC Soleil Savvy Razor package: one (1) handle and four (4) disposable cartridges, a BzzGuide, coupons, and a letter filling me in on this campaign.

There are several things that I liked about this razor and a few that I did not like.The BIC Soleil Savvy package has a retail value of $7.49 and that includes one handle and four cartridges. Both the handle and the cartridges are disposable. When all four cartridges are used, just throw away the handle and buy a new package. This is convenient, but can also be wasteful when compared to regular cartridge systems that do not have a disposable handle (where just the cartridges are disposable).

Compared with my previous razors, the $7.49 is quite a value. My previous razor was a disposable cartridge system (but not a disposable handle). For the cartridges -- I believe four came in them -- it cost around $15. For about half the price, I can get a new disposable handle and four disposable cartridges. Which is a great deal!
However, I do not know yet if I will be switching out my previous razor for the BIC Soleil Savvy razor because of mainly one reason: the pivoting head has little range. The BIC Soleil Savvy razor package says that it "hugs" women's curves. But there were several curves on my legs that the razor did not hug. My previous razor pivoted in a wide range and hugged all of my curves. The BIC Soleil Savvy razor head pivots very little. This is one big dislike I have with the razor.
Onto the handle. The handle is very comfortable and one of my favorite handles I have felt/used before. It is big, easy to hold, and comfortable. There are rubber grips to have a better grip on the handle itself. I like the girly glittery color of the handle, too.
I did notice there was a rattling coming from the top part of the handle where the cartridges click into place. Other than that, the razor cartridge refills and the handle seem durable.
Clicking in the cartridge refill onto the handle was a little difficult at first, but I finally got the hang of it. The BIC Soleil Savvy razor refills do not click on as easily as my previous razors, however, and is another dislike I have.
The razor refills have three (3) blades and moisturizing strips. I wish that it was four (4) blades and not just three. This was another small dislike I had when using the razor.
