March - April Summary

Hi. I didn't write a single post for two month. Yup. But who cares? No body cares about this shit other than me! I don't know if I even care about it enough!

Whateverrrrrr

So the last 2 months have been quite productive for me (on a personal level at least). And I've watched A LOT of movies and read 3 books *rolls eyes*, started taking English classes (Just to receive a certificate that I, for a fact, can speak English), started teaching myself Spanish as well, lost the ugly 5 kilos I gained during finals period of my final semester in college, and wasted ton of money on make up and stuff I don't even know if I need.

Now, I don't think I am not lazy enough to talk about every single movie I have watched the last 2 months, so I'm Just going to list them with a personal rating of how much I liked each one of them, kapeesh?

- Labor Day: 6/10
- This Is The End: 7.5/10
- Due Date: 7/10
- A Street Cat Named Bob: 7.7/10
- Meet The Fockers: 5/10
- Lakeview Terrace: 7.5/10
- Sowthpaw: 7.5/10
- Marry Poppins: 8.7/10
- Split: 7.3/10
- Selena: 8/10
- Hope Floats: 6/10
- The Nice Guys: 7.5/10
- Sing: 7/10
- Begin Again: 7.7/10
- 20th Century Women: 6/10
- Sing Street: 7.3/10
- Everybody Wants Some: 6.7/10
- Swiss Army Man: 9/10
- Pretty Woman: 7.5/10
- The Light Between Oceans: 7/10
- Manchester By The Sea: 8/10
- Missing William: 6/10

See? I told you I watched a lot of these. Now, I don't care if the movie if 'Oscar Worthy' or not, my taste is totally different than what fancy credits think is pretty and well made. Although I do care about filmography, cinematography and all that jaz, I really care about how the movie makes me feel, how much it makes me laugh or cry, the level of cringe, how much I roll my eye or yawn, blahblahblah.
Any movie that is below 7 I don't recommend watching, just for the sole reason that it's boring, the rest are okay. 8 and up is some really good shit.

I haven't been up with new tv shows, but The Good Fight just finished its first season and it's g l o u r i o u s s s s s s. I love this better than the original 1000 times!

My reading material is not so much (surprise?). I finished 'If I Stay', read 'Still Alice' in the Arabic version, which was really nice! Started reading 'Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them' and I'm almost half-way through! Hopefully I finish it soon.

I may remember more things and edit this later, but for now that's it! Ciao.

February Summary

HEYYYY GUUUYYYSSSSS!! *Dinatokio style*

Sooo, I'm a few days late (again) but what does it matter? Nobody is on the edge of their seats waiting for me to put my very interesting summary of my very interesting month, right?

Anyways, let's start this off, shall we?!

To be honest I don't have many to share of my previous month (shocker) I was busy in a very weird way, I mean.. I don't have to go to school or work but I was just.. busy! I couldn't even finish my fifth watch of The Office before the month ended!

And yes. The fifth watch. I started rewatching right after I finished my rewatch that I started in January.
Which led me to google 'John Krasinski' (Just like I said I would do) but I've already watched 80% of his work. Except the movie 'Away We Go' which was really good. Beautiful movie.

I also watched Moana. TWICE. It's really good, really funny, so beautiful, Lin-Manuel's music is everything I need for my heart. I've been listening to the OST on a daily basis since I first watched it. And my family loves it as well. We sing along on the rides back home and it's just.. UGGGHHHHSSOOOOOGGGGOOOOD (yes. even the ones that are not in a language I understand) I guess that makes Moana's OST my favorite album of the month!
I finally sat down and watched Fantastic Beasts, which is a work of art. I miss the Wizarding World of J.K, Rowling and this movie gave me all the feels in the heart and the brain.
Edge Of Seventeen was just.. BLUGH. I can't understand how this Hailee Steinfeld girl ended up in a movie where she's the lead character and Woody Harrelson plays a secondary role.
Mom made me watch a Korean movie about zombies. Train To Busan Way to go mom! (It was actually better than all the American zombie movies I have ever watched combined. P.S: I only watched World War Z, which I hated.)

One of my favorite shows, The Good Wife, has recently gotten a spin-off: 'The Good Fight'. Only two episodes are out, but God I love me some Luka and Diane and some lawyers drama. I really love that they took a different direction than Alicia and her story, which ended miserably in the original series finale last year.

As for books, I honestly haven't been reading much, and am still on the same book I started at the end of January. I hope to finish it in a week or two. It's not difficult of long, I'm just a slow lazy reader.

I wish I can make a bigger list next month, but really who am I kidding?

January Summary

Hey guys!

So I'm starting this new thing where I write a post at the end of every month about books,movies, tv shows and all that shit that interested me each month.

Let's start with January!

This month was the Channing Tatum month. I fell in love with the guy and watched a lot of his movies! Like it happened with many, many actors before him.

Here are the movies I watched:

1. What If : A great movie starring Daniel Radcliffe and Zoe Kazan. It's one o these movies where everything is quiet and beautiful and you're just amazed by everything. Totally recommend.
2. Blended: Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore. Drew is not a very good actress, nor is most of the kids. Meh.
3. Just Go With It: Another Adam Sandler movie, but this ti,e with Jennifer Aniston. It's funny at the beginning but then it gets boring and similar to any other rom com.
4. Magic Mike: Here were it started with The Tatum. I loved the movie for three reasons: 1) Channing is such an amazing dancer you won't be able to take off your eyes no matter what your sexual preferences are 2) It's actually a great story 3) Matt Fucking Bomer.
5. Magic Mike XXL: It is so good, more funny material than the first one, Loved it for the same reasons listed above.
6. 21 Jump Street: Now THIS is a really funny movie. Starring Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill. It gave me a great laugh and the chemistry between the actors was amazing! Totally rewatchable.
7. The Girl On The Train: Starring my queen Emily Blunt. I was so looking forward to seeing this movie and it was worth it. Amazing and surprising.
8. 22 Jump Street: I laughed a lot. It was just good from the first 15 minute and it just made me laugh so much and that is why I consider it - and 21 Jump Street- as the greatest comedy movie I've ever seen since The Heat.
9. Dear John: Great romance by Channing Tatum and Amanda Seyfried. It made me cry a little. I don't like romantic movies so much but I LOOOOVVVVE romantic movies that make me cry.
10. White House Down: Starring Channing Tatum and Jamie Fox. It's kinda cool!
11. Foxcatcher: One of the greatest movies I watched during the month. Steve Carell, Channing Tatum and Mark Ruffalo were AMAZING.
12. Max: I watched this on the plain because the trailer said that someone who worked on Marley And Me worked on this too, but sadly it was not as good.
13. Saving Mr. Banks: It was my father's recommendation. A great film based on a good story played by Tom Hanks and Emma Thompson.
14. The Return Of Xander Cage: Don't waste your time or money on this movie. Don't be a fool like the people before you (me).


As for the books, I finished reading a book called عن التعصب (translated to: about fanaticism) by Mohammed Al-Ghazaly. It's a small book that talks about religious intolerance in three religions.
Also started reading a novel called If I stay, which I have no idea what it is genuinely about, but I'm getting there.

I haven't watch a lot of tv lately, only starting rewatching The Office for the forth time because I deserve some laugh but also because I love hurting myself in the heart. Please look forward to The John Krasinski month that happens to be called February too.
EDIT: I watched SKAM! YES! 3 seasons in less than a week and GOD I neeeeeed the 4th season already!!!!

Hopefully this time next month, I'll have already received my bachelor degree certificate!

Fan Fic

Years ago, when I was deeply and madly in love with Harry Potter I discovered the world of fan fiction, where people write stories based on known characters or people. I read a lot of them back then, and it gave me such joy to write some of my own!
And when I was active in J-pop idol group NEWS fandom, I started reading fics too about my favorite Japanese people, and to be honest, they were all Massu/Tegoshi because I was a hardcore biased fan to the pairs I love, and still am. And I also had a 80+ pages document of short Tegomass fics I have written myself which I accidentally shift+delete it while getting rid of my old school stuff, and I still cry over it till this day.

In this post I will recommend some of the Massu/Tegoshi fics that I found after years of reading them, also some Supernatural ones because that's the hole I'm in right now and I don't thing I'll be out. They're a mix between AU/Non AU and PG-13/PG-17

This a judgement-free zone. So if you're gonna judge my kinks and my taste, get out of here.


Tegomass:

Que Sera, Sera
Baby, You're A Classic
Tender Red  (I cried at chapter 6. Yes I remember which chapter. That was the first time I cry reading a fic)
Family Portrait
Hope And Pain
Beautiful World



Supernatural:

My Wrong Turn At Albuquerque

Childish Belief 

Walking After You

Come For You
The Wound
The Darkest Hour
Did You Lock The Door When It Shut? Did You See The Knife When It Cut?
The Boys Who Didn't Fly
Devils In The Details



Supernatural RPF:

Threesome Verse
Crash Into Me
Slick
Happy Valentine's Day, Mr. Ackles 
Straight To The Point
Whisky River, You're All I've Got


I DO have more faves, but because I'm an idiot I forget to save the links. I'll keep updating this post if I find anything I like.
