Yes, it’s that time of year again. The time where malls are crazy, radio stations play Christmas music incessantly and bratty children can be heard begging for toys from miles away. This may seem like a cynical way to look at the most marketed holiday known to the western world, but don’t get me wrong, I’m…

Along with decorations and music and baking and all the traditional spirit-building…
When I was little, the only thing that ever made an appearance on my Christmas list were toys, toys and oh, even more toys. I had absolutely no desire whatsoever for anything else and all other non-toys that I ended up receiving, went straight to the back of my closet. The last few years, however,…

When I was a kid I watched movies all the time. Mostly they were Disney, of course, but some of them were amazing and heart warming non-Disney movies. Though I often fell for movies like Cinderella and the Lion King, The Land Before Time has been apart of my childhood that I wanted to share…

I watched Catching Fire on opening day; here are a few reasons why it was amazing. The movie stayed true to the book. Although the movie was even more fast paced, it was almost word for word with the book. Only a few events were missing. The emotions and the sequences of events remained untouched.…
