This episode to me felt like a filler. At the end of the previous episode, Hugh suggests to Aiofe that they become a couple, which plays out in this episode humorously and disastrously. The outcome was obvious and frankly, since there was a strong build up for them as love interests, I don’t understand why the inevitable had to be
Read moreThis episode was spectacular–mentally spectacular as opposed to physically spectacular. The episode mainly revolved around the bus hijacking. I wonder how people would have felt about the episode–the plot fits perfectly in the Hyde & Seek world, but it might have hit too close to home in the real word (i.e the Sydney Siege). Joel Jackson’s performance was brilliant, a far
Read moreThis episode to me felt like a filler. This episode was all about getting closer to finding Malik, only to be constantly thrown red herrings. Bassam was a big red herring in his subplot as he wasn’t the biggest problem, his girlfriend was. I felt this subplot was sending mixed messages, trying to tell the viewers to be open minded
Read moreToday I actually managed to make progress and write 1,597 words and most of these words were Michael’s letter to Lorraine. Michael is Lorraine’s oldest child and I based him on his namesake–my father. I felt that Michael was the only child who could talk to Lorraine about his father’s death as he was the oldest and essentially had to
Read moreI felt this episode is about building up to the last few episodes of the season. This episode again started in media res, this is seriously getting old but as it has happened in every episode, I will accept that this is clearly going to happen in the remaining episodes. In this episode the use of in media res established
Read moreUnfortunately I have made no progress on How We Got Here yet as my last two days at work were busy and stressful and I was too fatigued to write. Today, Day 5, I only managed to make small edits on my already written prologue so the rest of the novel would make sense. I’m going to work on making

I’ve always held the belief that you exist, or if not you, that a higher power does. I’ve always felt that life is a combination of what I make of it and my destiny being pre-mapped. The

Read moreWrite a letter to yourself, to be read in fifty years** Dear Rachel, So you’re in your seventies now, actually you’re more closer to 80 than 70….76. I hope we’re still alive. How do you feel about being in your seventies? In your life so far, what do you feel your best decade has been? Thirties? Forties? Fifties? Sixties? I’m
Read moreWrite a letter to yourself, to be read in five years** Dear Rachel, So you’re in your thirties now…31, where did that time go? Actually I know where it went–school, working at Woolies, moving away and going to uni, and working in Sydney–no wait that’s where I’m up to. Lately I’ve been feeling I haven’t really lived my life. While
