These days there is an incredible amount of mystery murder solving series on telivision. Even from one particular series (CSI) there are about 3 different series going on at the same time. However, today I want to talk about my favourite of all of these types of series, which is Bones. There are a couple of reason why I really like this show. First of all, the characters. Where in most of these types of series there id barely any character development and it's only about action and solving murders, in Bones there is actually some decent character development throughout te series. Also, although not everything is equally believable they seem to be exactly on the line where everything stays very interesting and spectacular while still being mostly realistic. These are the main reasons why I think Bones is the best criminal investigation series out there :).

Yesterday there was another championsleague match between Atletico Madrid and FC Barcelona. While Barcelona was the favourite, Atletico won the hearts of the people since they achieve their goals not with just skill, but mostly with mentality and ambition. The first match in Camp Nou in Barcelona was won by Barcelona with a score of 2-1. At first this doenst seem very big, but actually this is huge since Atletico got a goal while being the visiting team. This goal counts more towards the end result since most of these goals are harder to score. This goal was eventually the goal that decided that Barcelona dropped out of the Tournament.

And there are armoured bears teaching about zen and martial arts! (I realise this last statement may suggest superficaility. I’m sorry.)

Some time ago I finished watching ‘the IT Crowd’. It’s a british sitcom about two guys running the IT department in the basement of ‘Reynholm Industries’. They’re both typical geeks and socially inept, so when they get a new department head - an ‘average' woman called Jen - it leads to some interesting situations and interactions. I quite enjoyed the absurd and slightly geeky humour, so I ended up watching every episode in rapid succession. So if you are looking for something to watch during your vacation, I’d recommend the IT Crowd. Even though it can be low quality from time to time, it will be enjoyable and it will explain many references you've probably come across.

Azumanga Daioh is a Japanese slice of life series which is considered to be the start of the whole genre, a genre which is now visible everywhere in Japanese culture. It focuses on the lives of six high school girls throughout their 3 years of high school. That is pretty much the entire plot. Plot is not the focus here. The characters and their weird antics are. Arguably, the main character is Chiyo-chan, a small girl who skipped several grades and got into high school without even entering middle school. She is very noticeably still very young, and easily flustered. She is accompanied by her 5 best friends, Tomo-chan, Yomi-chan, Sakaki-san, Osaka-san and Kagura-san, all with very unique personalities, and most being absolute blockheads. There's also the teachers, Yukari-chan and Nyamo-chan, who are basically parallels of Tomo and Yomi (one very childish and overly energetic and the other reasonable and struggling to keep the other in check). There's also Kimura-sensei, a pedophile who always has his mouth hanging open. The series is very much a comedy series. There is pretty much no plot or drama, just a bunch of jokes and gags. It kickstarted an entire new genre, and has become extremely popular ever since its release.

This is a police investigation drama series in which Al and Carrie investigate a crime scene every episode. Carrie has the perfect memory which helps them solve their cases. However, last Monday Carrie had a memory that she shared with someone else. Carrie didn't believe that her mind was wrong so she and Al try to get her memory back. The series is very addictive since it is enjoyable to fill your Monday evening with and at the end of ever episode there's a cliffhanger.

A FBI team (Ray - Chiwetel Ejiofor, Jess - Julia Roberts, Claire - Nicole Kidman) is suddenly torn apart when they discover that Jess’s teenage daughter has been raped and brutally murdered. Now, thirteen years later, after searching every day for the killer, Ray finally uncovers a new clue. No one is prepared for the shocking secret that will be revealed.. Secret in their eyes is a haunting crime thriller about a re-opened rape-murder investigation in which guilt, regret, love and obsession is being covered. It's a movie so rich and emotionally grabbing, you'll still have it on your mind days later.

As a long time fan of JRPGs I loved to replay Persona 3, one of the more interesting RPG's out there thanks to its social-link and persona fusion me mechanics. For my replay however I chose the 'enhanced' edition for its broader selection of social events and extended storyline. Persona is based around the dark-hour mechanic, a period which occurs every so often in which no one but the protoganists is concious. Its battle system is based around Chrono Trigger's, however it had Final Fantasy like turn based battle progression. The pure turn based natur of the game enable more tactical decisions to be made, and the avid RPG player will soon be thinking ahead 6 steps to try and win the battle in the most efficient way.

It’s such a relief that the internet can also be used for profound communication, rather than just silliness.

On the 4th of April I went to a concert of which I have forgotten the name, so my apologies for that. I went together with my work and it was supposed to be a Valentine's surprise. The main idea was that there was a DJ on stage surrounded by an orchestra and multiple performers performed. A few examples I can name are: Roel van Velzen, O'g3ne and Esmee Denters (the girl who used to have a huge hit with Justin Timberlake, unfortunately her vocal capabilities are lacking) . The average age was 47, however it was surprisingly fun and entertaining to experience. It did not influence me in anyway since I do not necessarily care about these certain things. #Joy

On tv there's a new tv serie called Code Black. I started watching it because there was nothing on tv so I just watched the first episode. It turned out that it was actually pretty good. It's about a hospital on LA who always have Code Black. Code Black means that there aren't enough supplies to help all the patients. In general it doesn't happen often, but this hospital is different because of the neighborhood it's located. You actually already know what's going to happen, but then it's with different patients and accidents. Now I watch it every time it's on tv.
