Hello, everyone! As you may have noticed, I bleeped out of existence for a while there- real life reasons, most of which had to do with work and to an extent, studying. Hopefully, I’ll be able to stick to my thus far unsuccessful one-post-a-week schedule this time around. Go me? I’m going to have to …
TV Series Review: Skip Beat!
Starring: Ivy Chen, Choi Siwon, Lee Donghae Genre: Romance/Humour Rating: 8/10 There are very few romance-oriented films and tv series that I can say that I’m very fond of, and even less so for -pardon this unintentionally snobbish tone- Asian ones.

If you’re anything like me, you definitely know the struggle of having oily, acne-prone skin. The irritation of having to take extra care of my complexion and having to forgo make-up because let’s face it, it’s not worth the sudden pimple flares that follow right after. It’s fine once in awhile, but that aside, I …
Anime Review: Your Name
Genre: Supernatural, Romance Rating: 8-8.5/10. I can’t decide because dang it, I want more Hailed as the movie to beat Miyazaki’s famed “Spirited Away” in 2016, “Your Name” immediately impresses with its beautiful use of colours in its animation.
