Where’s the love?

So I recently posted a note in one of my favourite online communities. I said that I had come across a blog, I supported it with a link, and embedded a video which I found on said blog.
It worked for a bit, and then all of a sudden the video was blocked with a cute little [...]

What Really Grinds My Gears – 15

You know what really grinds my gears – Life & Style magazine.
I don’t buy magazines but my husband thought that he’d surprise me with the newest Rob Pattinson story.

Books into Movies and their creative fans

So this post is merely to vent out my frustrations on the Twilight phenomenon. I have to say that I fell victim (like many people out there) to Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight Saga. It didn’t take me long to read all four books in the series, buy all the collectibles, and anticipate the up and coming [...]
