'Game of Thrones': By Men for Men
Game of Thrones has some awesome characters. Epic worldbuilding and awesome scenes. It's just not always handled well. I'm not surprised, they've got a big cast and multiple points of view. The case is especially true to the way the women were written into the show. Maybe the show is too big for its own good and they need separate shows and films like Marvel does to help make their characters shine. At times it's great, but at other times, not so much.

How 'Aladdin' in the West End Is Different from the Disney Classic
As a kid, Aladdin was one of my favourite Disney movies, other than Beauty and the Beast. Being a child during the Disney Renaissance era was a privilege, the films that were fresh in those days like The Lion King, The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and Hercules are all to this date still considered great films. Aladdin was a great story to me cause it taught me to be myself even when I didn't like myself. The ending to Aladdin was always satisfying because Aladdin was trying too hard to be someone he wasn't only for Jasmine to love him just how he is.

Tomodachi Life
If you’ve owned a 3DS or attended the Hyper Japan con a few years ago, then it’s likely you have heard of this game before. Maybe you’ve watched some play-throughs like Vinesauce’s one. On one hand I would say it’s like Nintendo’s version of sims, but on the other hand I think Sims and Tomodachi life are two different sort of games all together.

The 004 - 'Personal' EP
Thank you, Mike, for asking me to review one of your EPs again, especially for your lovely comments about my writing. It was an honour to listen to your music again. The 004 has been a band that I covered before with their first EP, the result of what happens when fans are left waiting too long for their favourite band to release a record. In this case, it’s the original Sugababes aka MKS, but still Sugababes in our hearts. Fun fact: I was almost banned from the MKS group for making fun of the leak requests. It’s through MKS that I found out about 004.

How 'Game of Thrones' Changed My Life
In the interest of those who have not seen the show nor have read George R.R. Martin’s novels, I will keep this spoiler free. There are still a lot of things in the Game of Thrones franchise that I don’t know or have forgotten with the sheer size of the work.

Cruising Round Japan Was Worth It!
After a long flight and a few nights in Tokyo, I took my first steps onto Diamond Princess, a spectacular boat catering to 3,000 guests of 40 nationalities. To be one of them was a privilege I’ll never forget. I’ve been on two cruises with P&O and this was my first Princess cruise, and whilst it’s still a bit hard to say which cruise company I prefer, I would say this cruise has been my favourite so far because of the ports and how they appealed to me.

Why I’m Rooting for Cersei
When I first started getting into Game of Thrones, I loved Daenerys and hated Cersei. Years later, the table flipped: Cersei is now my favourite, character and I don’t like Daenerys so much anymore. Whilst I haven’t seen every episode of Game of Thrones or read all the books (still trying to get through them when I have time and they’re all so long), I feel that Game of Thrones has some very strong female characters. If the Stark sisters get killed off, then I will give up on the series. Would I say the same about Cersei? No, because I think fans are already expecting Cersei to get what’s coming to her at the season finale. I’ve seen a lot of fan theories that already predict that Cersei will get killed and die in Jamie’s arms or fall at the hands of Daenerys.

Game of Mass Destruction - Prologue
“Human beings are social animals. What brings us together is love and affection—anger drives us apart. Just as we employ physical hygiene to protect our health, we need emotional hygiene, the means to tackle our destructive emotions, if we are to achieve peace of mind.” - Dalai Lama

Icelandic Memories
Iceland has captivated my heart and soul. Other than a bit of snow and some strong wind, we’ve been very lucky with the weather. For most of the days the sky has been clear, perfect for viewing the northern lights and riding on a snowmobile. I don’t think I will ever forget my experience on my seven-day trip in Iceland. Everything from the food, accommodation, to social life has been a big experience for me.
