I … Continue reading Product Review →

Geez, what a long two weeks. I don’t know why I’m so tired, I think I just stayed up too late last night, but it feels like such a relief to get all these videos over with. I’m not much of a video person. I like watching them, and I can appreciate how much work […]

Well, it’s the last day of these couple of weeks, and I am thoroughly exhausted. Working with video is tough work. But you know what makes it fairly simple for the most part if you know how to actually get the video to post? Vine. I watch Vine compilations all the time, but I’ve never […]

The 1995 BBC adaptation of Pride and Prejudice is beloved by all. It’s sometimes credited as the beginning of the cult-ish nature of Jane Austen works. And, of course, it has a lovely, completely unnecessary scene of Colin Firth in a wet shirt. Really, though, this adaptation is really great. To be honest, despite being an […]
