I never thought I'd say this, but I genuinely miss the anxiety of exams. Like, give me a high-pressure situation with a deadline and some caffeine, and I'm good to go. Now I'm just sitting at home, scrolling through TikTok, contemplating whether my life decisions are worse than failing a math test. At least then there was a clear enemy—my exam prep.

Is it just me, or does every movie these days feel like a sequel to a sequel of a reboot? I’m starting to think Hollywood is just one big game of "let's recycle our ideas until someone can’t stand it anymore." When did originality become such a rare commodity? I mean, I get it—familiarity sells—but can we at least try to come up with new characters who don’t have to save the world every five minut...
