Netflix, you done it again!



So my boyfriend and I was scrolling through Netflix…as you do to find a new T.V series to enjoy together, and now we have a great replacement for our old T.V series, supernatural!


You may think that fairy tales are nothing more than fiction stories told by imaginative minds. That’s what Portland detective, Nick Burkhardt, has thought all along till everything was about to change. He has never been prepared for the gruesome truth of the strange visions he has began seeing: seemingly regular people momentarily transforming into hideous monsters. He soon learns the truth after his only living relative visits him. As a “Grimm” he has to carry the responsibility of being a hunter and keeping the world safe from mythological creatures. He will not fight this on his own as his ally and confidant “Big Bad Wolf” will guide him through. The criminals he has only heard in fairy tales now will become the criminals he has to fight in real life.


Grimm largely follows the line of most crime dramas, but with the fun twist that the bad guys are characters from fairy tales and folk-stories. It is a show that can appeal to fantasy fans and crime drama fans. This show gives a refreshing spin to the stories we all grew up hearing from our parents and grandparents. For once, they weren't being spoon fed to us as these colorful tales that always had a nice, neat happily ever after. They're dark and menacing and a bit terrifying just as they were intended to be when the Grimm brothers wrote them down in the first collections. If you love fantasy it’s a great series to watch. I was hooked from the first episode, and would like to recommend trying it.


If you have seen it or started watching it, be sure to leave a comment and let me know what you have thought of it. J


Thank you for taking the time to read this. <3

Diablo III

I have recently been playing Diablo III : what can i say, I fell in love with it! I have chosen a Demon hunter as she is the closest thing to being an archer and she is like "Vayne" from League of Legends, which i loved.I was always into mages and would always and i mean always play as a mage, however one day in WOW (World of Warcraft) i said to myself "lets try a new character" , I chose a "hunter" and I asked myself "why was i a mage all this time???" Hunters are the best, they have amazing pets and they are OP (OverPowered) so you can kick peoples butts. ;) In Diablo III you also get a companion, i currently have a spider. I can not wait to get to max level! Isn't he a cutie ;) Sorry if you have a fear of spiders, I don't really like bugs myself, but as he is on my side i will let this one slide :) Sorry for the terrible screenshot, but that's my character. Yes I am still a noobie :3. Look at this fashion disaster bu...

This was the description: “A video game whiz helps create a new technology that enables players to guide their online avatars with their own bodies -- but a dark twist emerges.” So let’s break this down I love anime, I love video games, new technology that allows you to control your character and feel like you are in the world (better than oculus rift) hell yeah!

Community …The best Series ever!!

My boyfriend loves to listen to “Childish Gambino”, whenever he is playing his games or walking to work. He then discovered that Donald Glover had a stand up performance which we had to watch. At Donald’s performance he mentioned that he is in community series (I thought his stand-up was quite good) and I wanted to check it out! So we started to watch the first episode and it was amazing nothing I could compare it to. I fell in love with the series. It became a tradition of “Jordon and lily in the morning, watching community”. The story line follows a lawyer who is suspended when it is discovered that he has falsely claimed to have a bachelor's degree. He has no other choice but to enroll into community college. He forms a study group so that he can get closer to an attractive student. However he does not plan other students to join the group but he had no control over it. The study group includes a millionaire, a former drug addict, a former quarter-back, a singl...
