Parks and Recreation, I Love You and I Like You
I recently discovered a TV show called Parks and Recreation, thanks to a friend who recommended I watch it to fill the void left by How I Met Your Mother (which had a horrible finale, by the way). Parks and Recreation is an American comedy television series starring Amy Poehler as Leslie Knope, a perky, mid-level […]
Youth is Wasted on the Young
When the movie Before Midnight came out last year, I realized that perhaps it was time to finally watch the first two movies that came before it, Before Sunrise and Before Sunset, before I watch it. (Wow that was a lot of befores in a sentence.) As I watched the first movie, I was hit […]
Viewing Pleasure
Two Saturdays ago, I used my blogging earnings (my first Nuffnang cheque) to buy a Valore bluetooth speaker to use with my laptop. I had discovered how to connect it to our living room TV using the HDMI cable, but the sound was not loud enough. I didn’t realise that you could use the TV’s […]
Jamie Lived at the End of A Walk to Remember, Right?
When I was in college, my friend Tope introduced me to Nicholas Sparks. No, not in person, I meant his book, A Walk to Remember. I remember reading the first chapter on a Saturday afternoon, taking a nap, then waking up and continuing the book only to never let go of it and finishing it […]

Disappointed with the HIMYM Finale
Most regular readers of my blog know that I was a huge fan of the show How I Met Your Mother. Well that’s a “was” not because the show ended but because of the way it ended. Spoilers to follow, so if you haven’t seen the episode, I beseech you to go away. You see, […]
Captain America: The Winter Soldier {Movie Review}
I am a huge fan of Marvel movies, so I wasn’t about to let this one slip by. As expected, it did not disappoint. It is being touted as the best movie Marvel has ever made. Personally, I can’t be sure about that because it’s hard to choose, but I can say this with certainty: […]
Divergent {Movie Review}
*SYNOPSIS* In Beatrice Prior’s dystopian Chicago, society is divided into five factions, each dedicated to the cultivation of a particular virtue—Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent).

Non-Stop {Movie Review}
On a flight headed from New York to London, US federal air marshal Bill Marks (Liam Neeson) gets text messages on his secure line phone stating that someone on the plane will die every 20 minutes unless $150 million is transferred to a specific account. “I don’t know who you are, but I will find […]
