Mine and Piper's blog on this and that. There's really nothing there as yet, but today I did a post on a new magazine called Hunger. Exciting stuff! You can have a look on the link. Really wanna get some more stuff up.

Really nothing interesting has happened recently, nothing I want to blog about. Want to take more photos, and get excited for Christmas! Possibly Christmas shopping with Gabby on the weekend.

Last week, I went to see The Awakening, rather fab film I think! It was strange. Scary and creepy throughout, until the final half an hour, where everything turns nice and then suddenly you're not scared. Definitely recommend it. I think that it's a film which has been filmed really beautifully, in an odd way. Sort of similar to another film I saw weeks and weeks ago!

This film was also a strange one. Long, but still incredibly good nonetheless. We went down to the night time show, on the first Orange Wednesdays, so undeniably it was packed. Like The Awakening, a slow moving film. It was quite hard to grasp until the final half an hour, when everything clicks, and a foolish grin appears on your face, as if you've just realised what the punch-line of a joke meant. Delicious, seriously recommend it, and if it's coming out on DVD around Christmas time - worth considering for a father, uncle or granddad. (Or a female relative).

Can't decide between going to see 50/50, or My Week With Marilyn.

50/50

Pros

-Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Seriously lush

-Seth Rogan = funny

Cons

-Joseph Gordon-Levitt shaves all of his hair off

-It's about the development of his tumour, AKA touches some deep and intense topics. Is that really what you want with a comedy?

My Week With Marilyn

Pros

-Eddie Redmayne. Not quite Joseph Gordon-Levitt, but rather dashing. Very British, very hot.

-It's about Marilyn Monroe, a beautiful female who we all in some way wish we were.

Cons

-Marilyn Monroe is Marilyn Monroe. Is Michelle Williams going to be able to pull it off? There's a 50% chance that she will be mind blowing, and there's a 50% chance that she will be shit.

-Don't want to sound like a negative bitch, but how interesting is this film actually going to be?

I'll think, and you think. This post was mainly sleep-talking ramble! Promise to do an interesting proper post soon, not that anyone reads. OH WOE

Half term has come to an end - how unfortunate.

ANYHOW. Came across this on the Paperchase website, from their new 'birdcages' collection, which can be seen by clicking here.

I must admit I am rather impressed, and this sweet design on a mood lifting orange is really doing it for me.

C'mon we want to see these kinds of things rather than the daunting plain lined paper we use for revision.

This has reminded me!

Issue 5 should be up super soon.

A bitta blogging here, and a bitta blogging there. Unfortunately, need to finish the revision issue before I am too drowned in it!

Minkey and Bearo, buds for life! Bearo has been made by Lorna Ryan.

A rather thoughtful birthday present from my dead friend Barbara. You can get these books from clicking here.

Strange and lovely flowers I saw on my way home from school today.

These are some chewing gums my friend’s Aunt brought back from America.
