So… Scandalous!

Leave a comment

January is one of my favourite months when it comes to TV Series.
Why, you ask?
Well, most of the winter TV series are in full swing during this month. And today, while I watched the first episode of the sixth season of Scandal, I realised, how could it be that I never reviewed or mentioned this on my blog.

I bet most of my readers who are into political TV Series, already know this. It is possibly the most popular series of its genre. Coupled with elements of love, lust and murder, this makes for a thrilling and exhilarating series. The twists in this series are unexpected and the episodes are so addictive. You will always be wanting more!

The writer of this series is Shona Rhimes, and if this name doesn’t ring a bell still, perhaps the series Grey’s Anatomy will help. She is also the producer of How to Get Away with Murder as well as The Catch.

As much as I would like to delve into the story line of Scandal, I would not like to spoil it for those who have not yet got into it. However, if you like the sound of a political thriller… you are definitely in for a treat!

The Loft (Movie Review & Quotes)

3 Comments

Yesterday I decided to have a relaxing evening after going out two nights in a row and spending the day in Valletta. I have made bruschetta for the first time which turned out delicious… (I will be making it again!)

One glass of wine later, I decided to watch a movie which I’ve been wanting to watch for a while. It goes by the name of ‘The Loft’ and it’s considered to be in the thriller genre. Although I was not disappointed by this movie itself, I must say that I was not amused either. The story was quite original, in the sense that five married guys bought a penthouse to take all their mistresses and fuck buddies there, rather than getting caught or seen in hotel rooms. The only agreement they had between each other is that they’d tell the rest when they are occupying the apartment. 5 keys; one per each guy, and one dead body later…. The twist in the plot was quite interesting, but after seeing so many movies of this genre, it was quite obvious that the most perverted one out of the suspects has done it. And so was the case.

What left an impact on me was a quote from this very movie:

“The people you love, are the only ones who can hurt you.”

How true is that?

How easier would life be if we never get hurt?

But, how worthwhile would it be, in the expense of never feeling love and all its emotions ever again?

Error 404: Rock in NickelBack not found

There was a time, when I used to love Nickeback’s music, even if it is not my very favourite genre. The album Dark Horse was the one I listened to the most.

  • You’re so much cooler when you never pull it out
    Cause you look so much cuter with something in your mouth

  • S is for the simple need
    E is for the ecstasy
    X is just to mark the spot
    ‘Cause that’s the one you really want

  • Well she ain’t no Cinderella when she’s getting undressed
    ‘Cause she rocks it like the naughty wicked witch of the west

    Far too pretty to be giving it cheap
    That’s why she’s making six figures working three days a week
    Ya she’d even break a promise in the promised land
    She didn’t make it this far by just shakin’ hands
    She’ll shake her money maker twice as hard as anyone can
    She didn’t make it this far by just shakin’ hands

So, what the hell has happened with their recent record? Pop/Disco song if it even deserves that categorisation…

Have a listen: “She Keeps me Up” aka she makes me wanna snooze till this song is over.
