Last night, I saw a wonderful, light French musical Les Chansons d'Amour (Love Songs). Being a huge fan of musicals, I do not understand when people think of them as a lower form of theatre/movie genre. These people probably only saw one or two musicals in their lives, and those were probably too old-fashioned for them to love and get interested in this genre. The Sound of Music, for example, is a great family movie, but certainly not enough to make you want to explore that section of your DVD rental. In truth, the musical is a genre so complex and gripping, once you start watching it, you'll never go back.So, here's a list of 5 very different musicals, and I guarantee that you will like at ...

Mrs. DesRochers is also a mom, which she flaunts in her posts constantly.First of all, if you don't wanna play a game, don't. Easy as that. Similarly, if you don't want your daughter to play Miss Bimbo, don't let her play it. But please, don't go as far as to advocating that a game should be banned just because of the way you perceive it. I hate it when people think ...

Many people think that poetry is something annoying - mandatory when you’re in high school, non-existent when one grows up and takes on day-to-day life. Well, think again. As with many other things, the reason a lot of people are not interested in poetry is because they have never been exposed to things they would like. Just like books or movies, there are things you probably won’t like, but I am sure there is something in the world of poetry that you just might come to appreciate. So, I took it upon myself to help you dive into it by selecting 5 poems, some more famous than others, for you to check out! Annabel Lee by Edgar Allan Poe. Poe was a pretty cool dude. Not only is he the ...
