Fish Upon The Sky: Review and Analysis
I don’t know if I have told you, but I just moved across states. You see, early this year I left my job in Pennsylvania and took a position in a remote job.

Love Sick Season 2 Episode 1
Main story line We get a cold opening that shows Noh living with Phun. Phun serves him breakfast. I don’t know if it’s me but the eggs and the sausages look rather suggestive in the plate.

Looking back: Seven years of Love Sick…
(7/19/2021 EDIT: The original article had the airing date of Love sick wrong, which is weird considering that elsewhere in this site I have it correctly listed as 2014. I apparently confused the airing of S2 with S1. My apologies!) In July of this year, Love Sick turns 7 years old! The series, which firstContinue reading “Looking back: Seven years of Love Sick…”
