Elite Season 6: The distant cousin to Elite

This season deals with many real-world things, and you’d be anxious to see how these topics are handled for a dramatic show such as this one. #EliteSeason6 #Commentary #Review

I don’t have to say hear me out because I’m sure many people agree with me, particularly the ones who have been here since day one. This season is a bit different. Yes, there is a mystery, but the authorities are not involved this time. There are no anxiety-ridden kids in interrogation rooms. I guess, in a sense, the start to the new season of Elite was not as gripping a start as the previous…

S3E2: The Minimalism Bug Kind of Bit Me

in today’s episode i’m exploring minimalism. i am considering what minimalism is and who it’s really for. for a long time i thought of minimalism was aesthetic until i learned about the lifestyle #podcasting #minimalism

S3E2: The Minimalism Bug Kind of Bit Me – ilisil chitchats I know that it’s not Friday where I usually talk about what I watched. Still, I couldn’t think of fitting this into Friday’s episode when what I mainly wanted to say has more to do with how the thing I watched influenced me more than talking about the thing I watched itself. Hello everyone, my name is Reineth and welcome to ilisil…

S3E1: Is “new year, new me” still a thing?

S3E1: Is “new year, new me” still a thing? it’s a brand new year. brand new season. brand new me? is “new year, new me” still a thing? what does that even mean and do people actually succeed in whatever goals they set for themselves that they need to achieve this year? if so, give us pointers :)

In his narration in Death to 2021, Laurence Fishbourne says 2021 made 2020 feel like a mere prequel. This franchise has overstayed its welcome because the holidays don’t feel like the holidays anymore. I’ve come to accept that time is just an abstract thing we made up to reset whatever we did yesterday and fool ourselves into thinking we are new people today. But the world persists as it is, so……

where is “here”?

it’s lonely here trying to figure out how we got back here but i’m not sure “here” is a familiar place it’s darker, quieter, sadder, encased instead of feeling alone, i realise i am completely on my own i keep hearing how people are the hero of their journey when will i start to a hero, i, me aren’t i a villain? can’t do anything right pure intentions but rewards out of sight i’m tired,…

S2 — Episode 15: Rejection Terms Like ‘Best Friend’ and ‘Friend’

S2 — Episode 15: Rejection Terms Like ‘Best Friend’ and ‘Friend’ Transcript #transcript #podcast #friendship #friend #relationship

Hi, everyone. My name is Reineth, and welcome to ilisil chitchats. This is the podcast where we talk about our 3 AM thoughts. Since it’s 3 AM, today’s thought is: why I divorced myself from concepts like ‘best friend’ and ‘friend’. I saw a tweet or some of those things they show on MTV, and it’s also on Facebook, but it says, “Can we normalise calling people’ acquaintance’? Because I feel like…

Review: After (book + film) — Is this really ...it?

Review: After (book + film) — Is this really …it?

Fandoms are problematic. Suddenly, we all find ourselves back in high school because the popular kids get all the glory just for the sake of being popular. I am cementing this statement because I, too, am a victim of getting the short end of the stick because of someone more popular. That though is a story for another day. The arts has lost its integrity because we are knee-deep into the…

and yet “cute” still makes me feel inadequate

I graduated to beautiful It wasn’t because someone finally acknowledged me Or that someone thought I looked nice Especially when I wore something that they regarded as beautiful I graduated to beautiful Not because I wore something with a neckline that’s lower than what I usually wear Not because I traded my combat boots and my Converse shoes to wear heels for graduation Not because I wore…
