    5 Netflix Series to binge watch while on holiday

    It’s holiday season and you might find yourself having a couple of hours to binge on a show guilt free. Here’s five series to have a look at: 1. The Queen’s Gambit The hype behind this limited series is worth it. It’s about chess but not entirely, it’s more about life’s journey and how we can be the protagonist or antagonists of our stories. I absolutely love that it is based on a book. I should warn you bingeing this one won’t be easy because there’s so much emotion that is evoked in the world of the chess board. Seeing Ms. Harmon from a child with a suicidal mother, to…

    7 Netflix Documentaries to watch

    Today we have so much power at the touch of a button, good and also really bad stuff lies on the internet. It’s therefore up to us to make sure we can establish a balance. Here’s a few potentially life changing documentaries that open up your mind in ways that I believe are positive. 1. The Social Dilemma We all hear the horrors that Artificial Intelligence is taking over the world and before we know it robots will walk the face of the earth and take over everything. The theory here is that Social Media platforms that use AI are already there and the algorithms have a mind of their…

    What to Watch: Showmax

    I recently had the chance to get back on showmax, and I am so amazed at the content they have since my last subscription. They are giving Netflix some major competition since they are currently tailor made for Africa and as Africans, we are becoming smart enough to follow platforms that support content by us and balancing out with shows we love internationally. The platform offers a diverse range of movies, series, comedy specials and documentaries and after all my raving on Instagram about how awesome Showmax is here is a list of my favorites and what is on my watch list. Series 1. Love Island I happened to find…

    24 family movies to watch while home

    Staying home doesn’t have to be dull. When everything seems to be out of control, we can only try to stay sane during this sanitizing apocalypse that shall soon pass. Before then, we need to make the most of it. I’ve had the privilege of being locked in with my family. Now that there’s three generations home from my dad and mum, myself a 90’s child, and my siblings born in the 2000’s, picking movies for family movie night can be quite a task. It needs to be fun enough for the kids while interesting enough for the parents. Today, I’ll share some of these that we’ve watched or are…

    BAD MOMS

    Hold up, for just a second, I had made up my mind that Suicide Squad was winning my movie of the year title until I watched it So what is Bad Moms? It’s a 2016 movie about all the mistakes that moms make. That’s it. I don’t think i’m like those bloggers who go to the extent of saying the director and all the shenanigans about the technicalities of when it was produced, that’s their thing, and I can barely remember the entire cast name except Mila Kunis and Kristen Bell, besides that’s why we have E! to give us the behind the scenes. Why is bad moms so awesome…

    EASY A📀

    My theory is that in life somehow, someway, your life seems to go in line with a movie. Give it some thought and you’ll see, your at least a character in a series or movie. Even if its Tony Stark in Iron Man then I’d have a crush on you and we’d get married and have kids. Then live happily ever after🙌. Well my life is moving in the blurred lines of easy A. That time when one statement, a lie rather rakes your life to the next level. Thing is that one lie was supposed to get you all the way “up” there. Only thing about lies is they…
