My take on Alice in Wonderland.

By Danei Richard • Mar 24th, 2010 • Category: Opinion

Alice in Wonderland with Johnny Depp was surrounded by a huge mound of expectations. Tim Burton was supposed to outdo himself, and blow our minds like he did with Nightmare Before Christmas and Big Fish. However, in my opinion this movie fell a little short.  There was nothing defining about this movie, if you were [...]

The Aftermath

By Danei Richard • Dec 11th, 2009 • Category: Opinion

How did you fair after this black Friday? Did you find everything that you were looking for? Did you find things you weren’t looking for? Did your animal instincts come out as you prowled and stalked around your favorite stores at an outrageously early hour? As for me, I was not as much of a [...]



A Christmas Carol Movie Review

By Danei Richard • Dec 11th, 2009 • Category: Featured

I admit it; I gave in to the hype about the new Christmas Carol with Jim Carrey. It was quite a surprise to be honest. I was not prepared for how “scary” it was going to be. Would I recommend taking younger children to this particular film? No. However, that seems to be the trend [...]



No Couples Living Together Before Marriage? No way.

By Danei Richard • Nov 19th, 2009 • Category: Opinion

Excuse me Governor McDonnell, but I’m a little pissed off at your ignorance and would like to introduce you to the 21st century. Here in America we are allowed to live with the people we love regardless of a marriage certificate.  I believe we call it freedom. The Governor’s idea of trying to outlaw couples [...]

Thoughts On Studying

By Danei Richard • Nov 4th, 2009 • Category: Opinion

As college students we are supposed to know how to study. By this time in our lives we have had fifteen or so years of experience in school and we absolutely should know the ins and outs of a good study session. Feeling lost? Do not feel bad, it took me two years of being [...]



500 Days of Summer

By Danei Richard • Oct 21st, 2009 • Category: Featured

I spent my Wednesday night watching this film, and wasn’t a bit upset about it.  For those who enjoy watching a movie that is not geared at pleasing the “main stream” it is a wonderful option. It doesn’t have the ending that may be expected and that is what makes it great!  You watch a [...]



Why Not Teach Life Skills?

By Danei Richard • Oct 21st, 2009 • Category: Opinion

In recent years my attention has been more and more drawn to the lack of “real life” education in our high school system. I have a brother that is special needs, who is able to participate in classes that teach him life skills. Classes that revolve around knowing how to spend money, how to understand [...]
