The Unseen Benefits of Work Ethic - And How to Cultivate Yours
“The only place where success comes before work is in the dictionary.” - Vidal Sassoon The concept of work ethic is deeply ingrained in our society. From an early age, we are taught the values of hard work and perseverance. But, in a world where success is seemingly determined by luck, hard work can often be overlooked as a factor that contributes to success.

I saw a Marvel movie 100 times, in honour of Stan Lee, to help cope with my mother's death
Often when people talk about going to the movies, they often think of seeing a movie only once- maybe a few times at most, but even there it's a rare occurance. If someone sees a movie multiple times, it's usually because they a) have an unhealthy obsession, or b) want to break a world record, like a certain blogger who saw Avengers: Endgame 137 times. Needless to say, while I've yet to break a world record for movie-viewing (the current hold is 237 times for Avengers: Endgame, dwarfing the blogger in question!) That's an awful lot of times for a 3-hour movie), nevertheless, I've actually attempted seeing a Marvel movie 100 times. Seriously.

Grave of the Fireflies Anime Review
In the melting away long periods of The Second Great War, American planes drop napalm canisters on Japanese urban communities, causing firestorms. These bombs, longer than a metal can yet similarly large around, tumble to earth following fabric tails that vacillate behind them; they are nearly a delightful sight. After they hit, there is a second's quietness, and afterward, they explode, splashing their environmental factors with flares. In a Japanese private area, made of wobbly wood and paper houses, it is basically impossible to battle the flames.

"Troll"- A Netflix Movie Review
Troll is a 2022 Norwegian film directed by Roar Uthaug, featuring an ensemble cast led by Ine Marie Wilmann. The story follows a group of people who must band together to stop an ancient troll that has been awakened in a Norwegian mountain, preventing it from causing destruction. The film's director, Uthaug, was inspired by a Norwegian folklore idea that he had been contemplating for over 20 years. The film was shot in various locations across Norway, and was released on Netflix on December 1, 2022. Critics generally praised the film for its performances, score, cinematography, direction, visual effects, and action sequences, but criticized its derivative plot. The story centers around a young girl named Nora Tidemann, who, as a child, learned about the mythology of trolls from her father. Years later, an eruption caused by a drilling operation leads to the deaths of several people and prompts the Norwegian government to recruit a group of scientists, including Nora, to investigate. Along the way, they uncover the truth about trolls in Norway and the government's attempts to cover it up. In the end, the group successfully stops the troll, but the film leaves open the possibility that more trolls may still exist in Norway's mountains.
