My all time fave....



No joke how can anyone hate THE GRINCH it has to be my favourite Christmas movie EVER! In my family we have this weird tradition that you can only watch the Grinch in December and while putting up the christmas tree. I don't know why we do it but it just makes christmas a little more fun and festive. So therefore yesterday me and the mother went out and got our christmas tree which is always a mission as it has to be perfect for my mum, as she does go a lil crazy with christmas decorations and everything has to be in place. However this year I actually was the one that found the winning tree and it was decorated nicely in our living room while i sat and watched the Grinch with my granddad!

If you have never seen the Grinch then i seriously would watch it. I don't know why it makes me laugh so much but it does and it always leaves me at the end smiling. I love the music, the setting, the costumes and the actors and actresses, and i am also lucky enough to be going to LA in Feb with my media class and will be going on the Universal tour where they have a re make of the set of the Grinch so i am SO excited for that.

Also next week I am finally off to America to go see my family and spend Christmas and New Year's there. I am so excited for snowboarding and skiing which i mentioned in a previous post and cant wait to film it all and make a little mini movie which i will then post on here. It is probably going to be the best holiday ever. So anyway everyone watch The Grinch and get into the christmas spirit :)

Music Video so far....

OK so finally me and my friend have got somewhere with our music video that i spoke about in an earlier post. As we have had to do so much college work we have been struggling to find time where we could edit but now we have most of it done and have shown it to Poppy who we are making it for. She wants us to make a few slight changes and i know it is by no means perfect but i am happy with how it has gone so far. Some parts you will see definitely need tweaking such as the flower not being faded correctly at the end and things like that but hopefully once we have made adjustments it will work well. I am really excited for it to go up on the online magazine site as that will be really amazing to have people look at it from around London.

So here it is so far, so enjoy....






Also another good thing happening this week is that my corporate video that i made for Mill Cottage Farm Experience will be going up on their website this week. I am really proud of that video and cant wait to actually see it on a website :) So once that has been uploaded i will definitely post a link on here!

My review....


Its happened. Its done. There is no going back. I have finally seen Breaking Dawn and i have to say i actually quite enjoyed it and would recommend anyone to go see it. I felt it was very different to the other movies and didn't make me cringe throughout most of it. I though Kristen Stewart played Bella much better than she has done in the previous movies and i was able to put up with her breathiness (as we all know she is an extremely breathy woman). Robbert Pattinson also played his character well as usual but i felt you didn't pay as much attention to him in this movie and that you were more just focussing on Bella the whole time. Taylor Lautner also i thought improved on this movie and wasn't as cringey as he normally is which i thought was nice and made me enjoy the movie more. The movie i have to say was much more gruesome and interesting than the other movies and had a lot of funny moments. The only bad thing i would say about the movie was that in the middle there was a section that instantly reminded me and my friend of Power Rangers which i thought was a bit ridiculous however it made me laugh a lot. I also thought the very last second of the movie was very predictable and has been done in a lot of movies where she ends by opening her eyes. Although it was effective it always seems to scare me and i don't enjoy it but that is just my personal opinion. 

So if your interested in an evening out that doesn't cost that much, then i would definitely go see this movie. Also make sure to stay for after the credits as there is an extra scene at the end, which most of the people in the cinema didn't see including half my friends as they all got up and left too soon.

It has to be done....

Yes its true, I shall be going to see Breaking Dawn tomorrow. I just cant resist. The funny thing is i am really not excited for this movie as i have been with the other three. I just think that there hasnt been a big deal made out of this movie like there has been for the others. Or maybe its just i have grown compltely out of my twilight faze. I have to admit i did used to be compltely obsessed and used to stalk the cast all the time on the internet (I know. Its sad.), but now that has changed to a new obsession with something compltely different which some of my best friends are not to happy with but i wont say what it is cause it is unbelievably gay. Anyway, hopefully this movie will be entertaining and will also be a nice thing to do with all my friends and a good evening out. Also once i have seen this movie i will give a full review right here on my thoughts on the movie.

What a fool....


For anyone else that is actually watching X Factor USA you will probably have the same opinion as me. I was so disappointed on the last results show when Astro was in the bottom two as i really think he has now blown his chances by being so horrible and having the worst attitude. All he had to do was suck it up and perform without having a hissy fit and thinking he is better than everyone else. It really annoyed me as i loved him up until that point, i thought he had a really good chance of winning it and i found it amazing that he writes all of his own raps. I just now think that he has lost his chances of winning. I read earlier in a news article that he has apologised for his actions and Simon Cowell has also said that he was very disappointed however he only is 14 and still a child. Still even when i was 14 i would never have done something like that. I just hope he can turn it around somehow as i reckon he could have gone far.

Finally....

Literally have not posted in forever as i have had so so much work to do that i am struggling to find time to update. Anyways i finally managed to hand in a bunch of work on Friday so everything has calmed down a bit so i am able to focus more on blogging!


Last weekend i managed to take a trip to London with my mum to go visit some family friends. It was such a good evening out and i realised just how much better London is than Farnham. First of all we went to have a nice meal at Pizza Express and then went on to the theatre to see the amazing Blood Brothers. It was such a good musical and definitely one of the best i have seen. It's set in Liverpool and is about two twin brothers who were separated at birth, however then go onto meet each other still not knowing that they are related and become best friends. Its got a lot of comedy in it and also a lot of drama. It was really good to go out and do something like this and on my way back home while i was walking through the tube station there was a busker playing his guitar to the song Wonderwall by Oasis. As this is such a well known song the whole of the tube station started to sing along and it was such a good moment and made me so happy. This is another reason why i want to go live in London, as things like this just do not happen where i live.






Anyways, If your ever in London and looking for something to do, or something to see i would really really recommend going to see Blood Brothers. I promise you wont regret it.
