As Fire Nation…

On July 19, 2017July 19, 2017 By GiftIn MusingsLeave a comment

I haven't done a musings in a while. Hmm. I never liked the fire nation before because they caused so much pain. But then I remembered that they weren't always like that. They were led astray. The Avatar from the Fire Nation tried his best to keep the balance. It's interesting how one person can …

Here I am with my favourite soundtracks from movies. Soundtracks can save a movie for me, music speaks to me and so they're just as important as everything else that makes a movie. Let's start shall we? She's The Man This movie's soundtrack is banging I don't care what anyone says. The songs fit the …

Have Strength

On July 11, 2017 By GiftIn GodLeave a comment

The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? Psalms 27: 1 So in church this was the main verse the pastor used. It's such a good verse I don't even need to write a lot to explain it. In this world …

Pet Peeve: Rom Coms

On July 11, 2017 By GiftIn Film2 Comments

I love romantic comedies (rom coms) but OMD there are things within the genre that just annoy me or mildly irritate me. Why is the female protagonist uptight? Why is it that most of the time the female protagonist is uptight? I mean she'll be a boss which I like and she'll be working hard …

Something New

On July 11, 2017July 11, 2017 By GiftIn FilmLeave a comment

I've always wanted to watch this one but I've never gotten round to it. I always wondered if Simon Baker and Sanaa Lathan worked well together and now I know, they do! It wasn't what I expected. I thought the prejudice was going to come from the outside and give them trouble but really Sanaa's …

Hav Plenty – Review

On July 11, 2017 By GiftIn FilmLeave a comment

It's pretty cool that this film is a true story. People get up to some crazy stuff. I mean it wasn't so crazy but at some points I really started to wonder if that actually happened. Like everything, to the letter? Also there are some moments that he had to have made up. Like what …

Old School Review: Jumping the Broom

On July 6, 2017 By GiftIn MusingsLeave a comment

I said I wouldn't do this anymore (Old School Reviews I mean) but my Asian film exploration has been halted for a while so I thought I'd do this as a filler. Plus I only watched this movie the other day so I thought this filler would be fun. More fun for me perhaps. Onwards! …

Dragon Ball and female fighters

On July 6, 2017July 21, 2020 By GiftIn anime, mangaLeave a comment

I have some beef with Akira Toriyama. It's mainly to do with the female fighters in the Dragon Ball world. They had so much potential but alas. Let's talk about them one by one! First Chi Chi When Goku met Chi Chi she could fight and she was the daughter of the Ox-King. She could …

Scottish Highlands!!

On July 3, 2017July 3, 2017 By GiftIn MusingsLeave a comment

  For my birthday I decided to go to the Scottish Highlands. I have always wanted to go and once when I was in Edinburgh with my parents I saw this flyer from Macbackpackers in our BnB and it looked sooo cool. I kept it and made a note of it. Now Macbackpackers do tours …
