    Sci-fi or Fantasy: why I keep them apart

    Time Travel: my overly specific rules

    Time travel, part science-fiction, part fantasy. The one thing we all wish we could do to prevent ourselves from doing something stupid in the past. Unfortunately, we all have to keep cringing about it every…

  • To all my comedy series that got cancelled

    Once again I’m diving into the TV series that unfortunately have been cancelled. This time, it’s all about the comedies! And who doesn’t like a good laugh?! A lot of people do, reason why most…

  • Apps to Learn Japanese

    My passion for Japan and their culture has been growing bigger and bigger over the years. Probably was the countless hours I’ve spent watching anime or the taste of my BFF for Japanese music. Either…

  • I opened an Etsy shop!

    O.M.G. I opened an Etsy shop! I’m so f*ing scared right now. It’s such a big step. This isn’t playing with dolls anymore. I actually have a little shop online where people can buy stuff…

  • To all my sci-fi series that got cancelled

    I don’t know what it is about science fiction, but the shows have the tendency to be short. Sci-fi is one of my favourite genres, and it breaks my heart every time a TV series…
