What I'm Currently Watching
Started Dark Matter
Started a new series this week called Dark Matter. It is a Scifi show that reminds me a lot of the old Stargate Show. Im almost through season one. I'm really enjoying this one so far. If you like shows that have to do with going to different worlds and space travel with good characters check it out.
Finishing Season 7 GOT
Finally almost done! As of writing this i am getting ready to watch the season 7 finale. This show is fantastic. Really happy with season 7 as a whole.
Half hour left of Transformers Last knight
I know this movie got a ton of hate but i have a half hour left in this one and so far i am actually really enjoying it! This is coming from a huge fan of the Transformers series tho so keep that in mind. Full review will be in next weeks recap.
What I'm Currently Playing
You already know the answer to this one lol. Im still in deep with Zelda (wow that sounded wrong LOL) but seriously I'm still just exploring the world and getting everything out of this game it has to offer. This last week i decided to take a new approach to this game where i am exploring every village of the map completely before exploring onto other parts of the map. This game is HUGE! It is really mind blowing how they built this. I think the world is even bigger than Witcher 3!!!!!
Something New I Learned
