Modern horror has come a long way, but sometimes, you can’t go wrong with the classics like The Exorcist, available to stream on HBO Max.

Few horror films are as iconic as The Exorcist, a chilling tale of demonic possession that has terrified generations and left an enduring mark on the genre. The story follows a seemingly innocent 12-year-old girl who begins exhibiting disturbing behaviors, including speaking in unfamiliar voices and displaying characteristics that leave doctors baffled. As a series of mysterious deaths unfolds, her mother discovers the horrifying truth: her daughter is possessed by the devil. With medical help proving futile, her last hope rests with two priests and the ancient ritual of exorcism. Celebrated for its groundbreaking impact on horror cinema, The Exorcist has earned prestigious accolades, including recognition from the Academy Awards and the Golden Globe Awards.

Serving as a sequel to Stanley Kubrick’s horror classic The Shining, Doctor Sleep revisits the haunting atmosphere of its predecessor, bringing back the unsettling dread that made the original unforgettable. Ewan McGregor stars as a grown-up Danny Torrance, the son of Jack Nicholson’s iconic Jack Torrance, as he struggles to overcome the psychological scars of his childhood while confronting sinister supernatural forces determined to exploit his extraordinary psychic abilities.

Horror master Mike Flanagan directed the highly acclaimed work, and Doctor Sleep garnered much praise from critics and a slew of nominations in the 2021 Saturn Awards, with supporting actress Kyliegh Curran winning Best Performance by a Younger Actor.

"What's in your bag?" Well, it depends on where I will go and what will i do, most importantly, what bag I am using. I have bags for different occasions and different outfits but there are some essentials i will never leave and make sure I have with me all the time. Today, I’m wearing my Chanel GWP pouch bag. It's a really small bag intended for cosmetics. But because I like how it looks and how preppy it is, I tend to use it when I’m wearing simple dresses.               Today as I go to a luncheon, I wear this bag and bring a limited amount of stuff with me - the essentials. the essentials Let’s go into details! 1.  Wallet - this is the most important thing i have in my bag, whatever bag I use.

Journey Through Time, Juggling Emotions

Art evokes emotions. But what if those emotions are unknown and the art that is supposed to surface them was made in the past? Come with me as I travel through time to make my emotions known. Well, it’s not that I’m really going to travel in time but rather go and travel a bit to see my favourite artists’ works. No, we are not going to Amsterdam to see Van Gogh’s starry night. We’ll be going to BCG and Estancia Mall to traverse the past in the present. Almost everyone has heard Vincent Van Gogh’s name. He is everywhere.

#NearHereTravelLog Bali - pt.3 SANTI COFFEE PLANTATION Do you love coffee? Tea? Curious of how things work and how our favourites are made? Same. Our next stop is Santi Coffee Plantation. It is generally a coffee plantation, but they do have different kinds of teas as well. When you arrive at the place and have settled on a table and chairs, someone will approach you and ask if you want to try their set of taste testers. Of course we tried it! We're already here so might as well, right? At first it is a bit intimidating to see this much coffee and teas served in front of of me, but this feeling was later overpowered by my excitement to tey everything. And my tastebuds were rewarded. Everything just tastes so good. They use coconur sugar to ass sweetness to the drinks which makes them have this caramelish sweetness rather than that "in your face" sweetness regular sugar has. It was delighful and easy on the tastebuds. Once you finish the taster set, they will ask you which...
