I came upon this docudrama the day after I decided to cut down on my social media screen time. Being under quarantine and having no choice but to stay at home as much as possible, we sometimes turn to social media for entertainment and connection. Sometimes you look up from your screen and realize that… Continue reading Docudrama Review: The Social Dilemma (2020)
I realize that I've been late to the party since the fourth series of Sherlock was released last 2017 and the fifth series is still under way. Although according to rumor mills, the reason why the fifth series is taking a while is because of a rift between Benedict Cumberbatch (Doctor Strange, The Current War)… Continue reading Series Review: Sherlock (Series 1-4, 2010-2017)
This film is one of those abysmally frustrating ones that traverse the protagonist's minds and would sometimes leave the viewers wondering, even after the end credits start to roll, on what it was all about.

Before making… Continue reading Embracing Uncertainty With all its Trimmings

After all, I think I was able to make writing a habit because I think about it and plan for it when I'm not doing it. I am so relieved because I felt like I have finally said my… Continue reading I Have Always Been the Sun
It's been twenty days of non-stop writing everyday and someone told me today that it's amusing to note that my writing has a progression. And I agreed with her. I have noticed the progression in my writing as well. From low and desolate, it steadily and surely climbed its way up until it broke the… Continue reading There is a Light That Refuses to go out
We can't really choose who our family will be. It's one of those things in life where the gift of free will was suddenly suspended and it ends up looking like a cosmic joke to all of us who believe in free will. I don't usually write or talk about my family because I grew… Continue reading When Blood is Supposed to be Thicker
