El Top 5: Pop-up Westeros, Adele Dazim and NailSnaps

These are 5 things I think are awesome at the moment. 

I remember loving pop-up books when I was younger, so it's no surprise I'd freak out about the soon-to-be released pop-up book, Game of Thrones: A Pop-Up Guide to Westeros. 

I spend so much time relying on my iPhone sometimes it gets easy to forget how far cellphones have come. This adorable video shows how cellphones have evolved over the last 40 years.

This. Over and over again.

This kickstarter that I just supported. I'm just thinking of all the geeky nail designs I could make...

One of my favorite movies that I quote all the time is "The Wedding Singer." So watching this cute clip of Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore made me happy. Especially at the very end. :)

El Top 5: Frozen on Broadway, Worf on Wall Street, and 'Domestic Scenes'

These are 5 things that I think are awesome at this moment. :)

I seriously can NOT stop singing "Let it go."

I seriously can NOT stop singing "Let it go."

1. One of the best movies I've seen lately — "Frozen" — is going to be a live musical! This was a fantastic movie with laughs, great songs and teary moments for me. And c'mon, Olaf is everything. More here.

2. This Worf of Wall Street photo. Ahh, internet, sometimes I just love you.

3. As someone who used to seriously cross-stitch in my teen years (yep, I was that girl) I love these cross-stitch Downton Abbey crafts. Check it here.

4. Watch this compilation of Wes Anderson's slow motion shots set to a lovely The Shins song. Happy sigh. :)

5. Talented artist Ramiro Gomez has created incredibly poignant art juxtaposing luxury homes and images of domestic workers. You got to see the rest of his collection over at Fusion.

El Top 5: Cesar Chavez and Princess Darth Vader

The trailer for the movie "Chavez: An American Hero" is out! It's slated to be released in theaters April 4, 2014. The movie will tell the story of the famous civil rights leader and labor organizer. Looks promising! More on the movie here.

Loving this Princess Darth Vader costume. Filing this under Things I'll Force My Future Kid To Wear.

The concept behind Phonebloks sounds awesome! Watch the video below to get to know the idea that could really revolutionize the cellphone industry. Motorola also announced they already have a similar idea in the works. 

And lastly, an in-depth look at Fusion, a new network from Univision and ABC  targeting Latino millennials. I'm definitely intrigued, however I just learned my cable provider doesn't have offer it. (COUGHGETITTOGETHERCOMCAST) Check out the feature over at Buzzfeed.

El Top 5: R2-D2 Bodysuit y OMG Louis C.K.

It's time for another edition of ¡El Top 5!
Yes, I'm still not over the announced demise of Google Reader. I know, sad — but that is my life as a RSS-feed devotee. I'm relieved to know I'm not the only one crushed by the news. Check out this ode below:

A Dominican immigrant wins the insane 338-million Powerball jackpot and people are assholes about it on Twitter. I shouldn't be surprised, but these reactions annoyed me. Don't worry about the haters, Pedro!

This R2-D2 bodysuit from Black Milk is HOT. Pair it with a cute skater skirt and you're set! What would R2D2 say about this? Probably this:

Help take back the Latina tag! If you are on tumblr, reclaim the Latina tag! These amazing Latinas have presented the challenge to take back the tag and stop the hypersexualization of Latinas.

Tune in on Saturday, April 13th at 10PM. Connect with HBO on Facebook & Twitter: http://www.facebook.com/hbo http://www.twitter.com/hbo #louisckonHBO

OMG Louis C.K. I heart you. That is all.

I love my shiny black Kitchenaid mixer but damn, this custom Boba Fett mixer is EVERYTHING.

The Orcs were surfing the internet on their coffee break and noticed the popularity of the Harlem Shake videos. And this is what they decided to do. Sigh....not even orcs are safe from the Harlem virus. Share this and infect some more people! http://bit.ly/LEGOGoblinShake How many Star Wars characters can you spot in this video?

Yeah, yeah. The Harlem Shake is played out. But these LEGOs are just too cool.​

Spocks! Cute and clever. Go vote for these socks on Threadless!​

Just learned about the awesome-ness that is Cielito Querido. I want to go to there. Anyone down for a quick jaunt to México for a cafe de olla? I also want to hug whoever designed their logo and website.
