Recommended Listening: Enya
I like Enya. She has a soothing, calming voice set over soothing, calming music. I picked up this admittedly odd musical choice from my father, who, since as far back as I can remember, has had Clannad and Enya tapes laying around the house.
The Smiths
As I mentioned before when doing the article about my top 10 favorite Deftones tracks, I adore The Smiths. From the smooth, angelic voice of Morrissey, to the guitar riffs of Johnny Marr.
Our Winners, So Far
We are over half way through our One Love for Chi Blogathon fundraiser, and while we haven’t been able to constantly post on here who the winners are, now seems like the perfect time.
Alien Swarm on Steam
A couple weeks back, Valve, a company who is well known for such huge hits such as Portal, Left for Dead 1 and 2 and innumerable incarnations of Half-life, released a new multi-player game, Alien Swarm.
If I ever did Cosplay…
There have been times in my life where I’ve thought about doing some Cosplay. I’ve never done it before, but if I ever did, I’d want to do it right. Too often I’ve seen pictures of girls wearing things they shouldn’t have, or men just doing it all wrong. With the ladies I’d want to be, first off I’d want to be in tip top shape, but I’d also put in th...[Read More]
Final Fantasy VII: It’s not my favorite!
Right now, in that title above, I’ve committed one of the worst crimes among the gaming community: I’m not a fangirl of Final Fantasy VII. For those who pop off about how VII is superior to the rest of the long-running franchise, to not agree with them is suicide. Why? Because they refuse to consider the possibility that their beloved Final Fantasy VII is over-hyped.
Why I Hate the X-Men Movies
Ever since 2000, I have had a major thorn in my side, and you can blame the people behind the X-Men movies for that. As something I’ve always held dear to my heart, the X-Men series is that of legend. It’s truly epic, and shouldn’t be tampered with. For years I had been wanting to see my favorite characters up on the big screen, and when it finally happened, I wanted to die.
The Game that Almost Killed Me
I know that in the past I’ve mentioned how a video game almost killed me as a child. No, it wasn’t thrown at my head, nor was I physically beat by somebody wielding a NES controller. It’s actually a little more complicated than that, so let me take you back in time to when I was a little girl…
My Top 10 Favorite Deftones Songs
Since the purpose of this Blogathon is to raise money for Chi Cheng, bassist for Deftones, it’s only fitting that a post be made about their music. The Deftones have been around for over 20 years. Starting in 1988, I was only 6, and while, sadly, I wouldn’t learn about them for many years to come, it was well worth the wait.
Why Harry Potter is better than Twilight
As a fan of real vampire movies, I can’t even begin to describe how disgusted I am by the Twilight books and films. If you are a fan of either, I’m sorry. Not only do you have poor taste, but I think you need to get some serious psychiatric help. There’s been an on-going debate between fans of Harry Potter and Twilight. Today, I’m here to settle it. There are so many ways i...[Read More]
Evolution Of Pixar: Up & Away
Up was a film that hit me hard in the gut.By far their most mature & emotional film. The highlight was the film’s “mini movie” in the beginning known as the Married Life montage. In it we follow young Carl growing old with his wife Ellie. There are no words. Just the beautiful score & a moving montage.
