Freshly brewed Kalamatea: All's Fair Play

All's Fair Play Trailer + Episodes thus far
I didn't really expect myself to come back running to another Kalamatea production after the heartbreaking and meh ending they provided the viewers with their Jane Eyre webseries adaptation but I guess I have to chew and swallow my feelings towards their last production because they are back with spunk in their new original webseries, All's Fair Play.

Finnick and Annie

"There's nothing you could say that could make me leave you." -Annie, Finnick and Annie

If there's one thing that totally broke my heart in The Hunger Games Series, besides Mockingjay's ending, it was totally Finnick Odair and Annie Cresta's relationship.

Nothing Much To Do

I am not really a big fan of Shakespeare as trying to understand Shakespeare's fancy wording and sentence structure has been a frustrating struggle for me. One time, I had to read one Shakespearean play called The Merchant of Venice for an English reading assignment. I have to admit I had to read a version which was simplified into modern english to make it easier for me to understand and make my opinions about it.

I understand Shakespeare's great contributions to literature, but sometimes, just like in Romeo and Juliet and Macbeth (I have encountered Romeo and Juliet in many ways while for Macbeth, I had to study Macbeth for a school play), I didn't understand why things need to go down so frustratingly and unjustifiably tragic? After reading through The Merchant of Venice and studying Macbeth to be able to make contributions for our class play, I swore to never read Shakespeare unless it would have to save my head.

The Lizzie Bennet Diaries

Kids, in the summer of 2014, I haven't met your dad yet (or have I? We don't know yet). But I found a ton of webseries which made that summer a bit better.

It was one time I was obsessing over Pride and Prejudice, a classic novel written by Jane Austen, that I found a certain article that talked about the modernization of the story of the certain novel. I love Jane Austen's books (who wouldn't?) and so, I looked at the article, found out it was a webseries which can be viewed in youtube.

It was called The Lizzie Bennet Diaries

I love modernizations and book adaptations, but I also love watching vlogs (and sometimes, even making them). So the next move was to watch the first episode. I fell in love instantly with the way Lizzie is, and her sisters Jane and Lydia, and even her best friend Charlotte. The plan was to watch 5 episodes a day so I wouldn't have to torture my eyes watching 100 episodes in a few hours. However, excitement overcame the plan and I finished it in 3 days, 80% of the episodes watched in one day.
