The Christmas Series: A Stitch In Time Saves Nine

'A stitch in time saves nine' means that if we fix a problem while it is not yet big, we could stop that problem from getting bigger and harder to solve.

Although a lot of people hate problems, I actually appreciate and am thankful for the small ones that can be solved easily. This is because they show us the simplicity of life and how we are in control of it for most of the time. It also shows us that we can always do something to make a situation better so we should never feel useless and/or hopeless. 


I admit that sometimes, when life seems to become too hard for me to go on, I start wishing for a life with no problems. I imagine a place where it doesn't rain but is never too hot - a place where everything you need and want is already there. It always seems appealing to me but when I start thinking about staying in a place like that for the rest of my life, I get bored and hope that it never happens. Can you imagine a place where there are no problems, big or small? Sure, it'll sound nice at first but after a while it just gets boring, doesn't it?

The Christmas Series: 10 Titles;10 Fingers



 Guess what happens when Kimi, Audrey and Beryl's minds unite? First, the "Geeky Chiquitas" was formed, and now we present "The Christmas Series"! It's the greatest time of the year, and we think it's the perfect opportunity for thanksgiving, which will be the primary theme of this Christmas blog series. Don't expect ordinary, cliche posts about usual stuff like family, friends, but instead we'll bring in a new twist! Expect inspiring, funny, and fresh tales coming your way this Christmas season.

This Christmas Series will be composed of ten consecutive blog posts about anything we're thankful for, and these will be released exactly ten days before Christmas - which means that there will be a new blog post every single day for ten straight days! We've been looking forward to launch our first ever blog series, and we think now's the perfect time.

So for today December 15, exactly 10 days before Christmas, I (Beryl) will begin with my 1st thanksgiving post!


FILM IN REVIEW: Frozen (2013)


I've always been the biggest fan of the classic Disney movies, so it would be a crime if I don't review Disney's latest animated princess movie. I also grew up reading stories by Hans Christian Andersen (I LOVE LOVE LOVED LITTLE MERMAID!) and even though I knew (after seeing the trailer) that Frozen is obviously not at all similar to The Snow Queen except that it had a snow queen (lol), I HAD to watch the movie and talk about it after. And my god did I love this movie.

I was having this conversation with my friend (hi Via!) about the movie (which we watched together of course) and she asked me who I liked more - Anna or Elsa? My immediate top-of-my-mind answer was Elsa, of course. I mean she's got spunk, AND she's got super powers. But she also had depth as a character. Her issues about her internal strength and capabilities as a person made her so relatable to me. I then talked to my sister who also admitted to liking Elsa more than Anna. I asked others and came to the conclusion that almost everyone preferred the snow queen. I thought about this small statistic a lot, even more than I should've (but that's my brain, overanalyzing even the littlest things)

So it was 2am when I was finishing this dreadful paper while listening (and singing along, rather terribly) to Let it Go on repeat when I got hit by this amazing realization.

Frozen is about ELSA, not Anna! :O
