3 Months and Fun Questions

-
I can't believe it, but this blog has been properly up and running for 3 months!



I know that this won't seem like a long time to most people reading, but for me, it's a huge amount of time! I'm the type of person that starts a million different things at once and gets bored of every one of them. And I never had long-term plans for this blog, it was always something that I wanted to do but I never thought that people would like it.

I never expected to have followers, or have people tweeting about my blog or commenting on it. But the amount of support that I have got for my blog is amazing! If you've commented on my blog in any way, whether on the hopeful forum, on twitter or on the blog itself, thank you so much.

On Thursday, I played around with my blog a bit. If you're not reading this on a laptop then you may not have noticed (I've not worked out how to change anything on the phone version yet!) but if you are reading on a laptop, then you would have seen the changes in my fonts and the 'About Me' and 'Contact Me' pages that have been added. It may not seem like a lot, but this has really made me happy with my blog. It really excites me when I'm planning my posts, and seeing how they look, when they go from paper planning to actually being in print on my blog is something that makes me really happy!

Ok, now that my appreciations are out of the way, it's time for some fun!

I saw this on the internet as I was looking for new ideas for posts.

I'm doing the 'Fun Questions Tag' that I found here on http://seanajvixen.blogspot.co.uk
I'm not going to do all of the questions, I'm just going to pick my favourites!

The Fun Questions Tag!

1) When is your birthday? (You don't have to include the year if you don't want to.)
12th December, as I've probably mentioned before. 13 days before Christmas!

2) What are 3 of your favorite colors?
Silver, pink and blue. I only became obsessed with pink after starting this blog. I love the pink theme that I've chosen and have had so many compliments about it!
3) Are you addicted to YouTube?
I kind of feel that it's impossible not to be addicted to youtube!

4) What are 3 of your favorite shows on TV or YouTube or both?
Modern Family, Family Guy and Two and a Half Men currently.

5) What are 3 qualities you like in a best friend?
Loyalty, kindness and a joint weirdness!

6) Do you like your name? 
Sure

7) If you have the choice to pick your own name, what will it be?
I'd like a name that could have a proper nickname, like Rebecca or Amelia

8) Do you wear makeup?
Apart from the things that were in my bag in yesterday's post, I don't wear make-up at all. And this isn't because I think I have perfect skin (far from it!) but I've never worn it and never really known how to apply it well. That's not saying I never will, I just currently don't.

9) If you could write a book, what would the title be and what would it be about?
I want to write a book and am currently planning a few, so unfortunately I can't give out names or plots just yet. But when I have a definite plan, you'll be the first to know!

10) What makes you cry?
Anything! Seriously, I am the most emotional person I know. Movies, books, tv shows, anything sad (or happy) makes me cry.

11) What makes you angry?
People who have no consideration for other people's feelings, and when people treat their 'friends' badly.

12) What makes you happy?
Music, books, YouTubers, BoyBands, lots of things!

13) What is "Fangirling?"
This is my favourite question. I've purposely not looked up an official definition so that I can just tell you my version. To me, fangirling is when someone is in love with/slightly obsessed with a celebrity/band/youtuber and they are willing to dedicate something, for example a twitter account, to the love of their choice. I probably didn't explain that very well, but I am a massive fangirl, so I hope I gave my fellow fangirls a good enough description!

14) What are your 3 favourite snacks?
I am addicted to white chocolate magnums, fruit pastille ice lollies and chocolate chip cookies!

15) What are your 3 favorite drinks?
Apple juice, Fanta fruit twist and cloudy lemonade

16) What are 10 random facts about you?
- I'm addicted to fizzy drinks
- I've never worn foundation
- I live in leggings and harem pants
- I listen to songs and imagine it's me singing
- I always cry watching Monsters Inc
- I love musicals!
-I've got about 20 unfinished books sitting on my laptop
- My last purchase on iTunes was 'Happy Little Pill' by Troye Sivan
- The Wanted follow me on twitter
- I'm in love with the idea of love

Thank you for reading. And if you've stuck with me for the last 3 months, thanks from the bottom of my heart.

If you're a recent viewer of my blog, please follow me, you won't be disappointed (I hope!)

Snatch | 100 Movies Bucket List

I'd never heard of this film before last year, when I watched it for the first time, so this time around was my second watch. Guy Richie's movies tend to be a bit hit-or-miss for me. This is one of the only ones where I don't have a strong opinion one way or the other. I didn't love the story, it didn't hold my interest the whole way through. But one thing that I absolutely loved was the dialogue. It was smart, quippy and made the film a much more fun watch than the plot itself would suggest. Another thing I absolutely loved was Brad Pitt's performance. This was probably one of my favourite roles of his. He did a great job with the character, and it was really different to everything else I've seen him in. But that being said, all of the performances were great. For me, if I had to guess why this film is considered a classic, it would 100% be because of the script and performances, rather than the film as a whole. It was the script that kept me locked in and

American Psycho | 100 Movies Bucket List

This one was a re-watch. I'd seen this film once before watching it for the Bucket List. My memories of it weren't wholly positive - I didn't love the first watch, and while I didn't hate it, it wasn't a film that I was itching to watch again. Though saying that, I knew that I probably would watch it again eventually, because I knew how much of a classic it was. Like a lot of films I've watched for the Bucket List, I liked it more this time around than I did the first time, though I still didn't love it as much as I wanted to. But that being said, I did really enjoy it. The writing was great and Christian Bale was amazing in the role, as were the supporting actors. For me, though, the most iconic thing about this movie is its soundtrack. The songs used are amazing and fit the movie so well. They're used in such a unique, original way, that it feels like this alone makes the movie a classic. The film is really well made, and even though I don't love i

Miller's Girl | Film Review

A creative writing assignment complicates the relationship between a teacher (Martin Freeman) and his student (Jenna Ortega). I heard about this film maybe once and remember being interested in it, but then I never heard anything about it again. So when I saw it was available to rent/buy on Prime Video, I decided to give it a shot.  I don't know what to make of this one. I didn't hate it, but there wasn't a lot to like. The only thing I did like was that Martin Freeman and Jenna Ortega worked really well together and had good chemistry. I'd love to see them work together again, in a film with a better plot and a less weird (platonic) relationship. The characters are written really weirdly. There were many moments when they said things that were just so unbelievable, especially Jenna Ortega's character, Cairo. Another odd aspect of the film was the tone - I could never tell if things were supposed to feel sinister or not because the film couldn't decide how it wa

My Problem With '8 Simple Rules'

-

Hey Guys x Today's post might come out as more of a rant, which I'm OK with because I haven't ranted about something in a while! Last year, I started watching the show '8 Simple Rules' when it started playing on Comedy Central. It originally came on between 2002 and 2005 but I didn't watch it when it was first on. Anyway, I really got into it. There were only three seasons, so it was over before I wanted it to be. And I loved this show, and I still love it. Comedy Central doesn't play it anymore but if it did I would dive right back into it because I love a good sitcom. However, I have a major gripe with a plotline of the show, that got more prominent in season 2/3. Let me just explain the characters a bit, so you know who I'm taking about in case you never watched it. The show revolves around a family, Paul and Cate Hennessy, and their children Bridget, Kerry and Rory. In the second season, the father in the show died (due

Book Review #127: The Hawthorne Legacy by Jennifer Lynn Barnes

After the events of 'The Inheritance Games', Avery still doesn't know why Tobias Hawthorne left her his entire fortune. All she knows for sure is that she isn't a Hawthorne. But when she discovers something that suggests she's closer to the Hawthorne family than she ever imagined, Avery, along with the mysterious Hawthorne brothers, try to find the truth once and for all . I reviewed the first book, 'The Inheritance Games', HERE , and said that because I didn't love it, I wasn't really interested in reading the sequels. I picked this book up on the spur of the moment, because while I didn't love the first, I was kind of curious about what came next. I'm so glad I decided to pick this up, because I liked it a lot more than the first one! One of my criticisms the first time around was that I felt Avery was quite juvenile and childish. This time around was entirely different - I really liked being in her head, and she definitely seemed more matu
