Underrated Movies/TV Shows That Deserve Your Attention Now
I’ve been watching movies and TV shows for a long time now. Long enough to identify which ones are garbage and which are not. But one thing that has bothered me the most, is that the ABSOLUTE BEST films and shows (in my opinion) are coincidentally the most unpopular ones. It’s such a shame that…
Best of 2017
Now that 2017 is coming to a close, I would like to take a moment to acknowledge all of its treasures that I have discovered throughout the course of the year. Here is my Best of 2017. Best Restaurants NOTaBLE NOTaBLE is an immensely praised and highly rated restaurant in Calgary. Seriously, one visit will let…
8 Songs That Will Make You Cry
I like to think that I am a generally happy person– if you disregard the moments of school-induced stress and misery– and wish to spread this positivity to others. However, when it comes to music, movies, and literature, the ones that I cherish above all else are the ones that are able to evoke a…
Stranger Things Season 2!
Season one had taken over in 2016, and now 2017 is blessing us with another season. Thank the Netflix Gods for doing this because this show had quickly become one of my favourites. I finished the first season in an embarrassingly short amount of time, and I can’t wait to do it again. October 27 was…
The World is Our Classroom: MEI 2017
It has been nearly three months since I stepped off the plane into the YYC airport, returning from the most incredible adventure of my life. Every day since then, I’ve been reminiscing about moments on the trip and wishing I could relive it. Going on a MEI trip was a truly extraordinary experience, and I…
What Makes Some Games Scary?
Halloween is right around the corner, and there is no more appropriate time to talk about fear. The origin of the holiday is literally people trying to scare away the things that scare them. Back on the topic of fear, I recently played the scariest, most stressful, and downright traumatizing game I’ve never had the…
Culture Shock 2k17
My time as a YVC volunteer has brought me pretty much everywhere: summer camps, green team events, Alberta Ballet, and now, a break-dance battle? That’s right, last Saturday, I was lucky enough to volunteer at Culture Shock 2017, a youth driven art event celebrating culture and community, held at the Genesis Center. If you know…
Black and White Movies You Need To Watch Now!
Old films will forever have a special place in my heart. I love black and white movies, especially the ones made in the early-mid 20th century. To me, they beat all of the new modern movies. My favourite thing is that little glitch on the screen that you can only see in those older B&W movies. I’m…
July Favourites
(Don’t mind the fact that I sound like a beauty guru) Summer’s only half way past, but it’s given me enough time to try out some new things that have quickly earned a spot on my favourites list. The month of July for me had been a pretty busy month, I always had something to…
12 out of 12: An Ending Note.
I graduated? Even though it’s been nearly a month, I still have to pinch myself as I speak these words out loud. After twelve years of formal education, I, among with the 636 students of the Sir Winston Churchill High School graduating class of 2017, walked across the stage and received my diploma, before thousands…
Top 9 Places to see in Vancouver
Now although I would recommend seeking out every corner of Vancouver, I do not think it will be possible in just one or two road trips. I still haven’t done it and I lived there for a year. So out of my list, though it was painstakingly awful for me to just pick 9, these…

LOGAN… from Start to Finish (spoilers…duh)
When the trailer to Logan came out I was excited to say the least. The Wolverine was my favorite superhero. I loved his ‘don’t care, get out of my face’ attitude, and oh did I mention he has ADAMANTIUM, A D A M A N T I U M claws and bones and regeneration. But…
