t.A.T.u. Albums Ranked
The relationship between Yulia Volkova and Lena Katina mystified millions back in the day. What possessed two teenage girls to make out in music videos and on stage? For every person they made drool, there was another person fuming and asking for their content to be banned. People asked if they were really a couple or if it was all just an act. Their relationship still gets people asking questions, but it's under different circumstances. Regardless of the nature of their relationship, the whole act says a lot about how women and young girls are treated. To this day, they're still Russian's biggest import.

Camden Market
Camden Market is one of the best markets in the world, and one of my favourite places in London to go to. I’ve been there many times and each time it offers something different and feels like I’ve travelled the world. I have been to lots of countries, but I have never seen or been to anything like Camden Town. It really has something for everybody and things you might not even think off. What I love about the place is the diversity.

Lockdown Playlist
If it wasn’t for music, what would we do? Where would we be? I know for a fact that I would be in a pretty dark place if it wasn’t for music. I don’t think I would have achieved half the things I did without music motivating me. Anyone who knows me knows I have an eclectic taste of music, even though I think everyone has to some agree some say mine is more extreme.

My ‘Unpopular’ Pokémon Opinions
With a franchise as on-going as Pokémon, there are some firm favourites and with so many fans there’s bound to be some different opinions. There’s still lots of debate over which Pokémon is the best and which generation is the best. I’ve seen many fallouts and arguments on the internet. I’ve been a fan of the series since the series came to the UK, and I have written quite a lot of stuff about Pokémon. I share my opinions with a lot of the fan base in general. A lot of us love Pikachu and Eevee and think Charizard is badass. So here’s a list of my unpopular opinions about the Pokémon franchise.

My Vocal Plus Experience
Vocal is the ideal blogging site for me. I’ve had experience with blogging sites like Livejournal, Tumblr, Twitter and Wordpress before it went really mainstream. To this day, I still believe that most of the Internet is powered by Wordpress which many use to sell their brand, and become their own identity. I’ve seen many sites promise writers that they can supplement their income with their writing. Out of all of them, I’ve found Vocal to be the most reliable. I’ve been writing here for 3 years and published all sorts of stuff; reviews, ramblings, recipes and short stories. Pretty much anything can find a home on here.

Pumpkin Pancakes
It is amazing what ideas you get when you binge watch the Great British Bake Off on Netflix. I always associate pumpkins with Halloween. When I started travelling, I began to see Pumpkins in a new light. I had childhood memories of carving pumpkins, but never actually tasted one before. “Maybe we’ll have some pumpkin pie” whistles on the radio. The lyrics from Walking Around the Christmas Tree felt weird to me when I was younger because I would always associate pumpkins with Halloween. Now I’m a fan. It’s not just Pumpkin Spice Lattes that should have all the glory. Pumpkin is a really good thing to have in any cuisine. The pumpkin salad I had at a hotel in Japan, was one of the best salads I ever had in my life. Pumpkin curry works a treat. Pumpkin pie is lush. Having been a big fan of the sweet potato pancakes from Korea, I decided to try and make some myself at home. It worked out really well, so I thought maybe try pumpkin ones too.

Covid Vacations
Like so many of you, I had so many plans for 2020. The birth of a new decade and a new year made me want to chamge my life for the better and try new things. Many brides never got to make it down the isle. Holidays and events cancelled. So many little things that we used to take for granted, are now more precious than ever. Not being able to go abroad this year, made me see that the UK had a lot of nice places. I always knew there were some good spots, but there are some underrated gems. Because I have this goal to set foot on thirty countries, I’m more interested in places abroad and if I got online friends there, I can meet them and even make new friends. Though I’ve also got amazing friends here too.

Vinyl Wishlist
Before the lockdown, I wrote a list of articles that I wanted to write on here on my wordpress blog. This was one of them. Whilst I didn’t do as much writing as I had hoped for, I am still proud of the little achievements and small word counts. My 10th book, a dystopian novel called Game of Mass Destruction got its first review on Goodreads and it’s a positive review.

Favourite Galar Pokemon
I have been a fan of Pokemon since its inception. I don’t think any generation has been hated as much is this one. The main reason for this is cutting out most of the national dex. In my opinion, the story is lacklustre. There was so much unfulfilled potential that Nintendo fans feel betrayed and behind on the times. As awesome as Charizard is, if Charizard is going to be available so should Blastoise and Venusaur. The other starters also need love as well.

My Favourite Alola Pokemon
Alola brought the end of HMs outside of battle and a temporary goodbye to Pokémon gyms in exchange for trials and totem Pokémon. No new Megan’s were introduced but we still got to use them which was nice. Regional variants became a thing which gave some Kanto Pokémon a new lease of life. Some are awesome like the ones mentioned on this list whilst some are strange like Alola’s eggsecutor who is now a dragon apparently.
