Why I opted for a tiny wedding

I love weddings, other people’s weddings.  I love dressing up and attending other people’s parties, I enjoy the effort they’ve gone to make the day as fun as possible, but what I really enjoy the most, is not having to help with any of the planning or work associated with the festivities.

So, when it came to my own wedding, I opted Continue reading “Why I opted for a tiny wedding”

BATMAN VS SUPERMAN: DARK AND DECENT

The DC world’s cross over has been a long time coming.  We have wondered for the longest time whether DC will catch up to Marvel with its constant hero crossovers and combined movies.  The internet went crazy with hate when it was announced that Affleck would be donning The Bat cape.  And I will admit it, I was one of them.  Affleck can’t do the hero run, he runs like… Continue reading “BATMAN VS SUPERMAN: DARK AND DECENT”

Why do when you can teach?

I’ve recently embarked on my second attempt at a higher education.  Like many jaded adults, I felt that it was time for a career change. I had long felt disconnected with the world.  Feeling as though I was not making any meaningful contribution to society.

After a several jobs various financial markets and a change in lifestyle, I am right back where I started a long time ago.  Unhappy Continue reading “Why do when you can teach?”

FULLER HOUSE: FINDING ITS FEET

Binge watching has a lot to answer for.  Instead of watching just one nostalgic bad episode of this show, I ate through 12 before I knew what had happened.  That’s right, 12 episodes.  I would never have tuned in to a second episode, let along another 11.

This show is lame, really really Continue reading “FULLER HOUSE: FINDING ITS FEET”

GODS OF EGYPT: WHY?

Gods of Egypt is an impressive movie made by university students.  The graphics are decent, but can be improved upon.  With further plot iterations, reshoots, improved dialogue and some acting classes, this movie will be able to receive a B on presentation night.

Oh wait… Continue reading “GODS OF EGYPT: WHY?”

WHY YOU CAN’T TRUST EVERYTHING YOU READ

Like most of us, I am not an avid news reader, I have a short attention span.  I skim, read the disaster stories (war, crime, etc), I click on the click bait, and on the odd occasion, I will read through an entire news story about a subject that intrigues me.

As a child, I always thought that journalists were Continue reading “WHY YOU CAN’T TRUST EVERYTHING YOU READ”

Deadpool: his and her review

Deadpool… need we say more?  If you don’t know that this movie has been released, you either are completely cut off from society; or you are just better than the rest of us and don’t fall for commercialism. Either way, time to get out and smell the fun.

Let’s get the review on, Continue reading “Deadpool: his and her review”

SUPER BOWL 50: ALL ABOUT DEFENCE!

Who would have thought it possible?  The Super Bowl came down to who had the better defence.  Not who had the better offensive team, a rarity in a game that has put a great emphasis on the scoring team.

The Broncos and the Panthers both had the best defensive teams in the league.  The Broncos’ defence held off Brady and The Patriots, they were strong.  But if The Patriots had played the kicking game, it would have been them at Super Bowl 50, and not The Broncos.  Couldda, wouldda, shoulda…  The Broncos were there due to bad strategy by The Patriots, not because they were the better team.  But that’s the game, a beautiful combination of brains and brawn.

The Panthers kicked The Cardinals Continue reading “SUPER BOWL 50: ALL ABOUT DEFENCE!”
