Will It Ever Get Better?

Hey.  I know the title of this article may seem a bit “heavy and depressing”, and not gonna lie, it is.  Yeah, sad article coming at ya!  And yes, I know that in my previous article I literally said how I would no longer be writing super sad articles on this blog anymore, but, unfortunately when I went to write my next article (this article) this is what I ended up wanting to talk about.  And what’s that?  Feeling behind in life.  Feeling lost.  Feeling sad.  You know, fun stuff!

Book Review: Turtles All The Way Down

Hello everyone!  It’s been quite some time since I’ve done a book review on my blog.  Over the last few years, reading is something that I’ve gotten really into again.  Even though I don’t talk as much on my blog about books as I do about other things in pop culture, I really do quite enjoy reading and books.  My favorite book that I read in 2021 was Turtles All The Way Down by John Green.  In this review, I will talk briefly on what this book is about, along with sharing my thoughts on this book as well.

My 100th Blog Post!

Hey.  How am I?  Thanks so much for asking!  You know, some days are better than others, per usual, as life goes.  Don’t worry, today’s article isn’t going to be about emotions, or feelings, or me getting all existential.  Well, it is a little about those things.  Today’s article, for the most part, is me talking about my blogging journey and how this very article here is my 100th post on my blog!

How Am I? Well…

In the new series, Kevin Can F Himself, the lead character of the series is asked how she’s doing.  Her response is, nobody really cares, that’s just something people ask to be polite.  Well, nobody asked, but this is an article about how I’ve been doing.  

Reflecting…

Hey everyone.  As many of you know, I love writing about pop culture.  Although, from time to time I find myself wanting to talk about things from my life rather than pop culture.  This article I’ve written here today is one where I will not be talking about pop culture.  This is an article about life, friendship, and hoping to find myself again.  What inspired this article, as well as all of my other articles in the “Friendship” category on my blog, is a moment in my life that I let change me.  Don’t worry though, I’ll be talking about pop culture again soon.  Sometimes I just find myself wanting to talk about something else.  And this is one of those times.

When Real Life Turns Into An Existential TV Drama…

I’ve always been a fan of existential tv dramas.  I would say, though, that my appreciation for television series that dealt with that question of “Why?”, about life, didn’t come until a bit later in life for me.  Growing up, for the most part, I was a fairly happy person on most days.  I had friends, did okay in school, and participated in extracurricular activities.  Then high school ended.  In the years that followed, my friends stayed friends with one another and forgot about me, my stomach issues decided how my day would go, and that happy person I remembered being on most days seemed to disappear along with much of my self confidence.  So, to say the least, existential tv dramas were series on television that I came to appreciate, understand and relate to.

“Hey, Remember Me?”….. To Those Friends Of Mine Who Didn’t Care If I Faded Away…..

This is a story about friendships gone bad, people who I thought cared, and what it’s really like to be the who is left behind…..

TV Show Shout Out: Maniac

*Disclaimer- In discussing my thoughts on the series of Maniac on Netflix, there are spoilers throughout this article.  Okay now that that’s out of the way, on to my thoughts!*

Okay, so before most TV programs come out these days there are usually always a trailer beforehand promoting these said TV programs. You know how you see a commercial or a trailer for a new show and think the following of TV Nerds thoughts, “UH YES! THIS LOOKS AMAZING! I WANT TO START WATCHING THIS LIKE YESTERDAY!”. Yeah, you know those TV Nerd thoughts. Well, maybe less dramatic than that but hey you get the drift of what I’m saying. You’re probably thinking that based on the thought like the one mentioned above that I would watch that program like right away. Is that ever the case with this gal? Never honestly, usually most of the time that be a nope! Usually if I’m really excited about a new show I actually wait a little bit of time to let my excitement lessen down a bit so I’m not overly excited and can watch the show seriously and not like, “AHHHH!!!  Can’t Wait To Watch This!!!”.  So my excitement and that initial hype that surrounds that new series has diminished up a bit so I can actually focus more than I might otherwise had been able focus if I started it right away.
