Little Talks

In honour of the return of my favourite show, Once Upon a Time (well Sherlock is my favourite too, but it's not on right now) today's quote goes along with one of the events in the new episode.

For a Christian movie, wow, this was like movie magic. The acting was good, and the film quality didn't make you think of home videos. Shane Harper was awesome, first of all. I have to admit that I used to (and sometimes still do) watch Good Luck Charlie, and so I was a bit afraid that all his acting would be Family channel (Canadian version of Disney channel) acting. I am glad to say that I was wrong. He was quite good. An may i point on thy his characters name was Josh Wheaton (i ha trouble not hearing it as Joss Wheddon.) The girl playing his girlfriend on the other hand, not so much unrealistic, but mood-swingy. Although I suppose that was more the character than the actress herself. The plot was really neat. From everything I had seen and heard, I was under the impression that the whole plot was the battle between the student and the teacher. I was pleasantly surprised Rodin that there were a number of story lines that all converged near or during the Newsboys concert. My advi

Sorry it's late, I've been so busy. So here's a quote from my latest read: Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury.

POTENTIAL SPOILER WARNING   I finally found the time to get around to these books!!! (YAY!) The Sarantine Mosaic series by Guy Gavriel Kay has got to be the best series I have ever read! It seems odd to say, I know, especially since I have been a HUGE fan of The Chronicles of Narnia , The Lord of the Rings , and The Wheel of Time for so many years.* And all of these are such epic, amazing fantasy series from some of the greatest authors. But never has a book or a series left me feeling so complete as this when it was done. So where do I start? I guess we start with the storyline (which to prevent confusion, I will extremely simplify). The Sarantine Empire is a fantasy land based very precisely in the history of the Byzantine Empire. The Emperor and Empress are based on Justinian and Theodora. (I will not go into more detail on the history.) Caius Crispus is a mosaicist from Rhodias (the equivalent of Rome). His friend is summoned to work on the Emperor's new sanctu

I thought this was cute so I made a little word doodle. 

First of all, do you appreciate the little joke in my title? If you were born after the age of the VHS you are likely lost, but to those of my generation (or perhaps the beginning of the DVD era) I hope you found it as witty as I did when writing it. I don't usually do this, but I wanted to put up this post for the few potential readers of this blog looking for my newest entries. I have been watching a lot of movies (and squeezing in as many books as I can) but I would like to continue the posts in the order that I have read / watched things. However, I know that the few I have coming up next (including the Sarantine Mosaic series) are ones that I want to really go into detail on and since school just started up again, it might take a while to find the chance to write it all. Also, for the series I borrowed the first book from the library, but I would love to have a copy of my own, especially for referencing while writing the blog. So stay tuned for the feature presentation (okay t
