Wait, I'm here! [Vic's Review's Last Gasp]

What is going on? Yes, I'm still alive.

I'll just carry on even though no one is reading. Is anyone reading?

After I posted my last post, I thought my newer post were NOTHING like my old post from the blog's earlier days. Something was missing. Part of it was that I felt like I wasn't having any fun. The post were just forced. It was something I had to do. During these past seven years, I underwent so much; family, extra-curricular organizations, writer's block, maturing, new technology, additional English/writing classes, changing of likings... I haven't forgotten about this blog. In fact, all this time I've been thinking about what to do next with it. Since I have access to the account, abandonment is not an option.

Through these years, my likings have changed quite a bit. These new likings include discoveries of older shows/animation as well as more live-actions shows. I figured my reviewing Power Rangers episodes on this blog would be extremely unfitting. My new mature style of writing would no longer match the style of writing as, say, back in 2005.

So, after several years of long contemplation on the future of this blog I have decided to officially end Vic's Review and start a completely new blog. With streaming services like Hulu and Netflix, there is a wide variety of shows I could write about and give my recommendations on them. I've been writing quite a few reviews and potential blog post in the past year that I'd love to share with you before I close out this blog. If you could just stick around for a few days/several weeks, I will be posting them as time becomes available as my life schedule is very busy. I'm tying up the lose ends by fulfilling the promises I made in past reviews. I'll post the first one as soon as possible.

Thanks for Reading,
Vic

Vic's Review's VERY Last Gasp...on Blogger

Well, you saw this coming, didn't you? As I have told you in a previous post, this blog on Blogger will no longer be updated with new reviews. However, for historical and nostalgic purposes, the blog will remain up. I may or may not want to make another blog with Blogger. If so, what will the new blog be about? Blogger is a fine platform that had handled this blog very well through the years. It was very usable for blog beginners. Even I noticed the ease of use when starting this blog, my first blog. Though many things have changed since 2004, this platform is still very usable. I have the new blog set up but I have not posted anything yet. I was waiting to close out this blog first. This is made with the WordPress that was an option from my web hosting account (in other words, "wordpress.org," the non-free version). I am learning more about WordPress design/development so the blog will improve with time. The first post will come soon. Please stay tuned! http://ww...

StipinCHOUstipiction

Originally Written 19-22 October 2016 I was looking back at a Cartoon Network Fridays show from 10 September 2004 and, as usual, it made me feel like I was still in that time period. It also included the "Wurd [sic] of the Day" segment. Remember how the ridiculously made-up word was introduced then a child from the audience spelled out the word spelling bee style? The word on the screen as introduced was spelled exactly like this: Stiptinchoustipiction. Used in a sentence, as said by Long Haul in his 18-wheeler, "I ordered me a chicken nugget and it was dipped in 'choustipiction'" (I doubt it was supposed to make sense). Then it sped over to the audience with their attention on a girl leaned over a low microphone spelling the word. All went well until she substituted the U with a W (StiptinchoWstipiction). Sometimes in this segment when the child has finished spelling, a voice would say, "That is...correct!" Not this time. They just went to the c...

Top 10 Things I Learned from Making Vic's Review

Hello again! I hope all is well. I have been coming up with some great ideas for reviews in the past years and I feel I have the energy and talent to write them. However, they will NOT be on this blog. As I may have mentioned in an earlier post, I will be continuing this blog on a different platform. I feel the content on this old blog will be no fit for the topics and writing style of my current days. It's time to move on. More information will be coming shortly. Before my farewells, here are 10 things I have learned from writing this blog on and off for the past nearly 14 years. NOTE: click the linked content at your own risk. 10. Proofread and learn to spell! I've been reading many of my earlier post and have been thinking "Aw, man, what was I thinking? That 'your' is supposed to be 'you're'" and other errors such as misspelling character names. This may have been a time before spell check was standard in browsers. Now granted, when doin...
