Gift cards! the perfect gift.
“What do you want for Christmas?” The most common question asked around right after Black Friday or Cyber Monday with friends and the family. Of course, the real Christmas shopping starts When you and everyone and their mother show up at the mall or local stores kicking, fighting, and pulling on the same item that you want, hell your lucky if you get half the items on your list. Then comes the gift wrapping; you always got to be sure the wrapping looks excellent and professional. But there is nothing more annoying than finding out the gift you are giving is not what the person wants or gives it to someone else. Example: When I found out the person I gave a nice pocket watch to, I thought he would like it. A couple of days later, I found out he passed the pocket watch to his child; I was angry but heartbroken because that person is a wealthy CEO, and I am a freelance writer. (I don’t want to give the name because I don’t want to have issues.) If you’re wondering what I got? I didn’t get crap! Because he said, Christmas isn’t about presents; it’s about being with the family. And he gives everyone except me a gift. When I asked why I didn’t get a gift, he said only the girls get presents. Just a heads up, I’m a girl. So, enough about that crap, if you want to get a good gift for that gamer, writer, outgoing person, or whatever they are, whether they are your co-worker or relative. When it comes to getting the right gift for the right person. I always get the one thing that is a guaranteed win.

2017 I felt like I changed
In the year 2017, I feel like I changed into something, not someone but something. I used to be brave, not afraid to do things; my anxiety and panic attacks have gotten out of control to the point where I don’t want to leave my home. I used to go out with my husband, go clubbing, make friends; I was so social and outgoing. I could talk and approach anyone. But not anymore; I notice all that changed before the year ended for 2016, about seven days, things started to crumble. It started with betrayal. My career degree stolen, My muse is gone, and my shield was taken. I will explain in that order.

What am I thankful for in 2020
If there is one thing this pandemic did that helped me and be thankful for, it gives me time to analyze my mental health. I was born with ADHD, and over the years, I have had difficulty understanding why I was the way I was. I won’t get into full detail about my past, But I will say this, it had to do with a lot of the medication I was taking when I was younger wasn’t taking much effect until I got older. I was rushing on everything. Schoolwork and jobs. Which was a big “NO,” especially on a new job. During the lockdown, when I got on unemployment because of Covid-19. I analyze that every time I would land a new job, I was working fast and making a lot of mistakes.

Don't face your nightmares alone.
Don’t face your nightmares alone; two is better than one. Something to think about in the sequel of the Adventure-horror/puzzle-solving game Little Nightmares 2: this new game scheduled to be released in November 2021. This game is not for kids, only above the age of 12, and can handle some frequent horror elements and scary images. You will not be playing as Six, the girl in the yellow raincoat from the previous game who escaped The Maw, an underwater traveling island. See image.

Linkin Park after 20 years.
Twenty years ago, on October 24, the band called Linkin Park released their debut album called Hybrid Theory that launched their career. It's hard to imagine how Linkin Park started from two high school friends to one of the top 20 in the best metal band. But Linkin Park isn't just metal; they are many styles; From headbanging metal to fast rapping hip hop, electronic, rock, which is why they are happy to be under the genre Nu-metal. Even their lyrics are fascinating because they don't talk about punching someone in the gut or putting certain parts of their body in other places. Front lead singer and producer Mike Shinoda stated in an interview, "We sing about anxiety, relationship issues, and wanting to fit in. "

Downtown, An animated show about urban life in New York in 1999.
TV plays an essential role in my life, so I started watching reruns of all my favorites when the pandemic hit. Not from Netflix, Hulu, or any other technology and services provider. But from my DVD collection, while looking at my many choices, I came across a particular animated show that I watched when I was in High school. It was called Downtown, and an animated show was based on urban life and everyday life.

Quarantine 2008
Spoiler alert: I will be talking about what happens in the film and how it ends. With so many films to choose from, If there is one film that I feel left me scared for days in October 2008, it would have to be the film Quarantine. It is an American found footage horror film directed and co-written by John Erick Dowdle. The film was a remake of the Spanish film REC which came out in 2007. (Which let me tell you, was just as scary, but some-what funny because hearing the actors yelling and screaming profanity in Spanish was funny. English is my first language.) But let’s get back to talking about the film Quarantine 2008.

Remember, you may not believe it, but anything is possible in a world so seriously strange.
Seriously Strange is one of my favorite content from the Youtuber Rob Gavagan (originally he was known as Rob Dyke, but due to legal actions, he had to change it.) If you are looking for videos on Horror/fear with a hit of comedy, then check out Seriously Strange. On this channel, there are episodes on true crime murders, disappearances, most evil people in the world, or bizarre crimes scene.

Tattoos are walking canvases, and they look awesome!!!
Tattoos, in my opinion, are walking canvases. I love tattoos, the style, the design, and the story behind it. I love hearing the story behind the tattoo of the person who got it. I find it exciting to listen to the idea or inspiration behind the tattoo. The levels vary when the person tells me why they got the tattoo. Sometimes they're funny, or a traumatic event they went through and managed to rise above it, or it's something simple like a wedding band or the name of their newborn baby.

Anime and Yaoi helped me understand my grammar and punctuation.
When it comes to anime shows, there not only exciting, but they are also unique. I love the stories as much as the background and the characters. The design of their personality is always impressive. I love how anime shows are developed from urban legends, mythology, or just a previous experienced the writer or the creator, or maybe the director went through. I love reading the stories on how these shows are created. I would always write stories like fan fiction in a journal.
