2021 Films
Someday I'm going to start posting here again, I swear. At least not until after March, as I signed on for more work. And after that, who knows because I might be going back to school. But for now, I need to forget about that and think about charting the films I've seen because lists give me some sense of organization. I didn't see nearly as many ( Read more... ) -
Mental Health
I have been absolutely exhausted lately. My work recently reopened where we're handing out items with no contact. While this is great, we don't have as many people as we used to. The work is fairly physical. We were overloaded on the first week and all we could talk about were our aches and pain. And while I've seen many people who are nice and ( Read more... ) -
In Support of Black Lives Matter
Last night, we were all huddled around the TV. We were watching the news. The screen continually projected images of people looting and rioting. And then, finally, for a split second, it cut to one LAPD officer who was arresting two young men with their hands up. The officer threw them to the ground. It was horrifying to watch. Instantly, they went ( Read more... ) -
Appreciating the Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 4
I've mentioned before that I'm really enjoying the battle system of Final Fantasy 7 Remake. But there is so much depth to it that I didn't realize how much more fun I could be having. Each character has a weapon that favors them as a physical fighter, a magician, or a balanced fighter. You can pretty much make a party of what you prefer. There are ( Read more... ) -
Appreciating the Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3
A lot has happened since last I posted about the Final Fantasy 7 Remake. There's been the Sector 5 reactor, the church, Sector 4, Evergreen Park, the Wall Market . . . and too many high-fives to count ( Read more... ) -
Appreciating the Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 2
I may have played a lot more than 2 hours between these two posts. Mostly because . . . I have been having too much fun playing the Final Fantasy 7 Remake. For many different reasons. It's not just the game play, the characters are loads of fun as well. A certain character who brought me much joy in this portion even hums the victory theme in lieu ( Read more... ) -
Appreciating the Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 1
In my last post, I had mentioned that the Final Fantasy 7 Remake for the PS4 was sold out everywhere. And then I visited the Square Enix store randomly and found a copy. Things have been turning out weirdly for me like that lately. Random chance is working for me, as it always has ( Read more... ) -
Full Steam Ahead
I somehow found myself going back to work for a special project that has been physically and mentally grueling. Once I'm home, I fall on my bed and take a nap because I have no energy left. On Saturday, I did absolutely nothing. My body was aching so much that I felt like I couldn't do anything. The worst part is that I feel guilty if I don't do ( Read more... ) -
Movie Reviews
Haven't done one of these in a long time, so it feels a little weird. These may be short or long, depending on the film.
