The Little Prince Translated into 24 Languages for a Magical Global Adventure!
Reading The Little Prince as an adult was such a strange experience. I remember reading this as a kindergarten, my mother gave me a copy and insisted I read it, and I only remember hating it, and that it made me cry. In grade 1, I remember telling my mom how I wanted to be an astronaut so I could travel to Asteroid B-612 and I wanted to have a fox. I also remember laughing a few times.

Right there, between “eat ramen until I explode” and “visit every Don Quijote store,” was my mission objective: Gundam Cafe in Tokyo. I had heard about this themed café for years, a haven for anime fans, model kit collectors, and basically…

Bruno Mars 24K Magic Concert in the Philippines Was Amazing (Just The Way You Are)!
What’s a leather-clad, metalhead chick doing at Bruno Mars’ 24K Magic concert? Easy. The man’s pure gold—24 karats of it, to be exact. It all started back in 2010 when I first heard Grenade. One minute I was headbanging to heavy riffs, next thing you know, I was scream-singing “I’d catch a grenade for ya!” like I’d just been personally wronged. The melody? Insanely catchy. The lyrics?
