Pacing

Vocal
You weren’t my first. Probably not my last. But of all the others' past, you’re the one that’s lasted. Vocal, you’re the best writing platform I have found so far. You’ve helped me grow. You’ve made me mad. You’ve made me smile. You’ve made me the writer I am today.

The Giving Tree
The Giving Tree is all we need. It will make you laugh and cry. It will make your heart bleed. Published in 1964. Forever a work we will adore. Not many words. Not many needed. When we learned to care for a tree. We learned more than we ever needed.

~Fahrenheit 451!~ Telling the Truth!
~Fahrenheit 451!~ Young Ray uses machine imagery to construct the setting & environment of the book, making it masculine in form and attraction. There is no thought of invitation to Women as readers in his world! Ironically, this only leaves me with the recommendation to stick to his TV Show!

A Game of Thrones: A Critique
The "Game of Thrones" TV show series captivated audiences with its intricate politics and fantasy world, but its rushed final season disappointed fans who craved satisfying character arcs. The swift resolution of long-standing conflicts overshadowed the series' rich storytelling, leaving viewers wanting more coherence and depth in the concluding episodes.

Watch the past, present, and future of Jack and Rebecca Pearson and their triplets, The Big Three, as they tackle tough subjects like grief, racism, depression, Alzheimer's, substance abuse, and disabilities.

Jellystone, err... "Yellowstone"
Despite its nonsensical timeline, episodes follow the same pacing as Baywatch, but in Montana, so the beachy, butt-centric music video montages have been replaced by cattle-wrangling and rodeo routine music video montages. Also, no one plays a sympathetic character and everyone is a villain—except for Jimmy, the former meth cook.

SPIRITUAL WARFARE 1
Ephesians 6:10-20 is a powerful passage in the Bible that discusses the concept of spiritual warfare and the armor of God. The passage emphasizes the need for believers to put on the full armor of God to stand against the schemes of the devil. Here is the passage for reference:

A Christmas Story Review
Since the Holidays are coming up, I thought I’d review a film which I think is perfectly appropriate for the occasion. And what better title to review than the timeless classic known as “A Christmas Story”? Since this movie was released in the year I was born in, this is yet another film that I’ve known pretty much my whole life. And I have seen this movie at least several times during my childhood. Now, what made this movie so special is that it wasn't really a Christmas story as the title implies, but rather, it was a drama with a few moments of humor here and there. And once you start watching it, you will quickly realize this isn’t your typical Christmas themed movie. It doesn’t revolve around the legend of Santa Claus and the myth about him traveling across the world to bring toys to children. No, this is a more realistic story that tells us that sometimes what we want isn’t really what we need. Originally released November 18th, 1983, this film is set in the 1940s, long before the time of the film's release, and long before digital age which we live in today. Anyway, the story in this film is basically a drama story told in the form of a narration by Ralphie when he has come of age, as he shares his childhood experiences with the audience about what happened to him on that particular day during the Holiday season. And needless to say, it was a Christmas that he would remember for a VERY long time. And let me tell you, this movie sure has left quite an impression on me that lasted for just as long. I watched this movie 30 years ago as a kid. And 30 years later, it’s high time I did a review of it. Though, keep in mind, I haven’t seen this movie in ages despite that I remember very specific parts of it by heart. So forgive me if some or all of these scenes are not in the correct order.

Grasshoppers (Work in Progress)
Note: I started this a long time ago and left it in a desk drawer with a plan that remained unfinished. These are only the first seven chapters (I wrote about thirty-three pages), and I would like some feedback on this work. It is based on an actual trip I took with some friends while in Japan, but with a lot of my imagination thrown in. I just wonder if I can take this somewhere...
