Supergirl

Supergirl is a new American TV show that premiered this year (2015) on CBS. I myself am a huge Super heroes girl and I loved all the former TV series involving Superman. It all started with The New Adventures of Lois and Clark in the new adventures of Superman. To this day whenever I see Dean Cain, I still see him as Superman. Which was weird because I saw a movie when he was the bad guy and it just didn't sit well with me. Dean Cain made an appearance in this new Supergirl tv show as Kara's adoptive father.
As I grew up, I watched the Justice League, this is where I learned all about the other superheroes and chose my favorites. Besides the original seven, my favorites were the Green Arrow, Black Canary and Supergirl. But then the CW's tv show Smallville started and I have all the seasons. The best seasons in my opinion are when the other members of the Justice League appeared for the first time and yes, even Kara joined briefly in season seven. Kara is Smallville played by Laura Vanderwoort. She did was the first Kara Kent I saw but honestly this new Tv show and their portrayal of Kara is WAY BETTER! So since Smallville ended in 2011.
I have been on a Super Hero Binge since I came back this summer. Another CW show the Arrow. Oliver Queen was stranded on an island for five years and returns to Starling City to protect the city. The Arrow is a great show and I would totally recommend it to anyone who likes Hero Programs.  It is a little dark, darker than Smallville but not as dark as Gotham ( that show is messed up).

 But the real target of this Ramble is Supergirl.That's why I was really excited when I heard about CBS's new spin with Supergirl.I have watched every episode since the beginning and here are my thoughts.
~ Melissa Benoist is such a good fit for Supergirl. She is an amazing actress and I think her portrayal of Kara is Super- fantastic!
~ Mehcad Brooks as James Olsen is super good looking
~ The under-rated character I think and I would love to see more of in season 2 is Winn. He is a true friend to Kara and I think he really does care for her. Even though I love the pairing of James Olsen and Kara, I am the kind of person who always right to root for the underdog. WINN!!!

Although it has been stated that Superman will not be featured in his show, his support helps shape Kara.Kara maybe sees Clark as a role model, even through she is the older cousin. Clark came out as Superman before she became Supergirl. Kara not only is a great hero, she is a great role model for girls everywhere. I, myself have been waiting for a woman super hero. With all the movies and tv shows I thought I would see Wonder Woman, Batgirl or Supergirl by now, Young girls, teenagers and even me, (a 26 year old woman) need to see a strong, kind, caring, kick ass, awesome super hero. I am excited to see what is to come of this new show!

Adventure is Out There!

So life choices come to you when you least expect it. I wanted a change, I wanted something new, so
in an attempt to change careers, I decided to try to be an Au Pair. Keeping in mind, a movie from my childhood; Au Pair. The 1999 movie staring Heidi Lenhart and Gregory Harrison. This movie gave me an unrealistic view of the job and task of Au Pairing. However, I looked into joining the Au Pair World. I want adventure in the the great wide somewhere? I took some interviews and profiles of different families but essentially I came to the conclusion I really wanted to explore the world. Despite my Parents concerns, I insisted to pursue Au Pairing in a foreign country, The thought of living with a new family, learning a new culture with customs and learning a different language totally appealed to me but also the concerns that I didn't give much face value that was until my 6th Skype interview, when I realized I all I really want is to Explore and Experience. That's when my Dad suggested an alternative; "Why not go visit my sister? Your Aunt who lives in Belgium."
So that is what I am going to do!
This summer I will spending three months with my Aunt, living with her in Aalter Belgium.Getting to know my Aunt, Uncle and cousins. I haven't seen them since I was ten years old. We all spent a couple of weeks with them on a family vacation. My memories are faded but I do remember my Aunt being a great cook, my uncle was quiet because he didn't know much English. My cousins Andrew and Kevin were strange due to the cultural differences and the fact they were boys, didn't help either. So I am looking forward to getting to know them and see them all again after all this time. Getting to know a family, who just so happens to me apart of mine. Getting to live in a new place, explore the different cities and learn a new language. In Belgium, the country is divided; the common languages that are spoken are French and Flemish. I am going to the Flemish speaking side where Aalter is located.
Honestly, when I called my Aunt Kathleen. I was a bit nervous. And when I asked if it would be alright if I came to visit for the summer; coming in June and leaving in August. She sounded so Okay with it. After my Aunt Kathleen and I then began exchanging emails and I prepared for my Adventure.

 Also I think I am going to try and keep a journal of my time in Belgium. So I will try and keep this blog up to date and post some of my adventures in Belgium and with my family. I am so excited to be going somewhere and maybe finally doing somethings on my bucket list! 

Iinchou no Himegoto

Just a thought I'd send this idea out into the world. I wonder if anyone else agrees with me?
So my newest obsession is reading Manga. One of my favorite Artist is Aikawa Saki, I would recommend her work. One of my favorite manga's by her is Iinchou no Himegoto. 

A short summary: Ayano is a class representative who accidentally got drunk at a baseball after-party, She woke up in bed with Kagura, a known mafia leader. What will happen between the two?


So I recently learned that another one of my favorite anime/manga has been turned into a drama. Say I Love You "insert Japanese name here" it was a short live action premiere movie but it followed the manga chapters pretty well. Well, I think it would be nice to the same for Iinchou no Himegoto. My suggestion would be to use the guy from the Korean BOF tv show.

Kim Joon would be Kagura. The 10th generation head of the Kagura Group Mafia.

Pick someone cute for Ayano, some people think she is a weak character but I love her. She reminds me a lot of me. I love how see's the goodness in Kagura.

Aikawa Saki's manga moves kinda fast and there are not a lot of volumes so a complete series would be hard but a movie would be perfect!
Who else would like to see this?
Leave me a message! I'd love to hear from you :)
