Cinderella checks her shoes before walking into the ball (lots of horse and see through slippers are a bad combo)
Sleeping Beauty is not feeling today and has decided to watch Friends on the couch instead.
Snow White is way too excited to see you (Who immediately drops everything to do housework for 7 strangers? Clingy!)
All the lonely people… *turns page* Where do they all belong?

I am rather delighted to see that Ringo Starr has made a picture book version of Octopus’s Garden, so much so that I have made up a suggestion for a follow up book based on a Beatles song…
I assume Paul and Yoko will contact me in the morning…
Playing Games and Humming Kate Bush

I know when I was reading Wuthering Heights for the Junior Cert, my main thought was “Man, this devastating portrayal of lustful passions and revenge would make a great video game.” Of course, when I asked my teacher, he told me that of course there was no such thing and told me to stop drawing in the margins.” I’m not going to lie. I was disappointed (For one, I thought I was totally getting away with the doodles).
But now that disappointment ends, for my copy of Wuthering Heights has gone from this…
to this!
That’s right, I have made a Wuthering Heights browser game! To begin playing, click on the image above or here. Now go find that rascal Heathcliff.
The Wizard of Oz

I have never visited The Wizard of Oz before now because I felt like I already had. I read the book years ago and I watched the sequel Return to Oz, a film known for its amazing advances in filming your most terrifying childhood nightmares. In addition, there is no avoiding Oz. Since its release in 1939, it has clutched its grip into popular culture and never left go, continuing to this day to inspire tributes, parodies and a conspiracy to sell copies of The Dark Side of the Moon.
OSCAR! OSCAR! OSCAR!

When it comes to awards seasons over in Hollywood (More like Hollyweird!), people often look towards me and ask, “Cethan, what films do you think are a lock to win?” Each year, I nod sagely, thus avoiding giving an answer.
However this year, instead of evading this question and disappearing through the fire escape, I will reveal my personal Oscar picks. If you disagree with any of my choices, I would prefer if you didn’t tell me in the comments below.
