No spoilers until halfway. I'll let you know. Crimson Peak, directed by Guillermo del Toro, is freaky yet predictable–but you don't mind at all watching it. Usually a predictable film will put me off, no matter how great everything else is. This wasn't the best film I'd ever seen and it's not going to get … Continue reading Crimson Peak
My Commentary on Supergirl
The following won't contain any huge spoilers, as in, nothing you won't have already guessed if you've seen the trailer or the first episode of any superhero-type of tv show ever. Still, if you get annoyed at any spoilers at all, just watch the show first. I watched the pilot of Supergirl and the entire … Continue reading My Commentary on Supergirl
5 Ways To Fill A Notebook
I realized that Wednesday was the one-year mark for how long I've been writing in my blue coil notebook. Just eyeballing it, it looks like I've filled a little less than half of the book. Since the last notebook was filled in two years, it seems I'm right on track. Except that I haven't written … Continue reading 5 Ways To Fill A Notebook
Macbeth / Out and About
Even though it's technically Sunday, I will be writing as if it's still yesterday. Today, I have something to write about. I took no pictures, but I actually did something besides sit in the library and write (which feels like all I'm doing these days and unfortunately not much of that writing is for this … Continue reading Macbeth / Out and About
(#18) Weeklies
I completely forgot Weeklies even existed. The last time I did one was way back in June. Oops. Anyway, I spent the weekend job hunting so I didn't have any one thing to write a post about. Thus, I have revived Weeklies where I can talk about a bunch of little things in a post. … Continue reading (#18) Weeklies
The Man from U.N.C.L.E.
I don’t know what I expected when I sat down in the movie theatre, but The Man from U.N.C.L.E. (Directed by Guy Ritchie) delivered something great. The film is set in the 1960s in the midst of the Cold War and follows a Russian and American spy with an amusing rivalry who are forced to … Continue reading The Man from U.N.C.L.E.
So Late It’s Early
It is currently half past six in the morning and I can't sleep. It could be the coffee I had fifteen hours ago, or the book I was reading that I can't get out of my head, or everything else that has me up to my eyeballs in stress. But I'd rather not get into … Continue reading So Late It’s Early
Two-Toned Subtlety
I thought I finished Book 3 back in the first week of June. I started the next book and everything, but something about the way it ended just didn't feel right. For the past five weeks, I kept going back to how things ended. When I considered crossing out everything I'd written since then and … Continue reading Two-Toned Subtlety
(#17) Weeklies
I've taken a short break from blogging, but not to worry. I'm back now! Book: I don't often recommend books that I haven't read myself, but I haven't been reading as much as I'd like so this recommendation comes from my dad. The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion. According to my dad, it's really good. I got … Continue reading (#17) Weeklies
Right Turn
It's Sunday night and I'm alone in my room thinking about my worst fear: The Future. Well, my future, specifically. Okay, I have a confession to make. That first paragraph was written a long time ago and I saw it while going through my drafts looking for something to write about. But tonight is a … Continue reading Right Turn
