Preview

As of yesterday (26th September) I have been writing my blog for 5 whole months! I never expected to love blogging as much as I do and the excitement I get while planning and writing each post is something that I haven't experienced while doing anything else.

As an introvert, blogging gives me a way of expressing anything and everything that I want to talk about, and if you too are an introvert, I urge you to give blogging a try.

I've said 'Thank You' to you guys a lot this month, so I'm going to try not to say it again. But I hope you know that your read, comment or follow means the complete world to me and, even if I never achieve any more followers, comments or views again, I will continue to blog because I just love it so much!

So, I was looking for a tag to do to celebrate 5 months, and I found one on http://clairefarrellauthor.com/blog/.
There are 48 questions and I'm going to answer them here! Feel free to answer them yourselves and leave your links in the comments below!

48 Questions

1. What time did you get up this morning?
Around 8am. I know it's the weekend, but I'm probably the only person I know who is both a morning person and a night owl. I can go to bed at midnight and wake up at 7am totally ready for the day.

2. How do you like your steak?
As well done as it can be without it being burnt. I hate seeing pink areas within the meat.

3. What was the last film you saw at the cinema?
I think it was 'Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes'. Seriously, if you haven't seen it, go and watch it, it's a great film!

4. What is your favourite TV show?
Right now it's between The Vampire Diaries and F.R.I.E.N.D.S, I love them both so much!

5. If you could live anywhere in the world where would it be?
Anywhere? Somewhere that's as quiet as the countryside without any insects. That would be my dream. But somewhere real? Maybe New York.

Pasta and garlic bread, together or apart, with anything savoury. I love them and eat them so much!

Not a big fan of dressings at all, as well as sauces, I prefer my food dry, weirdly enough!

I don't.

12. What are your favourite clothes?
Something comfortable. I prefer comfort over style, always.

I'd love to go to Italy or France, as I've never been to either of them before.

14. Cup 1/2 empty or 1/2 full?
1/2 empty, but working to make it look at least 1/4 full!

Somewhere quiet and peaceful. A change from the a city environment!

8am on a weekend, 8pm on a weekday.

London!

18. What is your favourite sport to watch?
I can sit through a game of football, but I don't really enjoy it that much!

Clinique moisturiser.

Cat

29. Are you married?
Nope

Rudeness, arrogance and being manipulative, to name a few!

35. Favourite ice cream?
Vanilla. Again, incredibly boring!

36. Favourite fast food restaurant?
Frankie and Benny's if I want a proper meal, McDonalds for a once-in-a-while quick snack!

Hot Frosty | Blogmas Day 17

  It's Blogmas day 17! When Cathy (Lacey Chabert) accidentally brings a snowman to life, she discovers the magic Jack the snowman (Dustin Milligan) brings to the town of Hope Springs. This is the third of four highly anticipated Netflix Christmas originals this year that I'm including in Blogmas. And while it's not the most original story, I've always loved the idea of Jack Frost, so I was excited to see it. Thankfully I liked this one - though maybe not as much as I wanted to. I really liked the character of Cathy. Not only was she really likeable, but because we get to know her so quickly, we can really root for her. I also loved the tone of the film. It didn't take itself seriously at all and made it clear to the audience that we're just there to have fun. All of the actors, main and supporting, were great. They were so much fun to watch and all played their characters really well. The chemistry between Cathy and Jack is great! You really want to see them tog...

Christmas Holidate | Blogmas Day 19

  It's Blogmas day 19! When Holly (Jasmine Burke) uses her company's app to find a date to bring home for the holidays, a glitch in the app causes more than one date to turn up. This film had an interesting premise because it seemed really original, and it looked like there would be a lot of chances for fun and humour. I didn't end up liking it as much as I wanted to. But one thing I liked was how much more modern it felt than most of the other movies I've watched for Blogmas this year. Even just the idea of her finding her date(s) through an app is original for a Christmas film. It's nice that the movie was family-focused, but the family it focuses on aren't that interesting and can't really carry the story. The main couple have chemistry and it was fun to watch them interact, but I never really cared about them one way or the other. And if for some reason they didn't end up together, it wouldn't have mattered to me. It took about 40 minutes for the...

Holiday for Hire | Blogmas Day 20

  It's Blogmas day 20! After getting dumped right before going home for the holidays, Katie (Christie Leverette) hires a man to pretend to be her boyfriend in front of her family. Finally a fake dating trope! A couple of the films this year have played with the theme, but this one really goes for it and I love that! But as much as I loved the premise, the film didn't really live up to it. However, one thing I loved as much as I loved the premise was Katie. Right from the beginning she was a character I could get behind and really root for. I also really loved Katie's roommate Sarah (Jeanne Lau) and I wish she had been given more to do, and more of a story. Why is she spending Christmas alone?? I tried not to look at the film from a point of realism, as this is a Christmas movie after all, but where was the sense of safety? The main couple are complete strangers at the start and it felt weird to see how quickly they trusted each other. And while I liked the characters intera...

A Christmas Proposal | Blogmas Day 16

-

  It's Blogmas day 16! When Jason (Joshua T. Shipman) is forced to move for work, and his girlfriend cannot go with him because they are not married, he creates an elaborate plan to propose by Christmas. So apparently there are two films with the same name, made in the same year, and it looks like I picked the worst of the two! From the very beginning, the tone of the film is really odd. It was taking itself way too seriously for what is supposed to be a light Christmas movie. The plot didn't really make much sense. A few times throughout the film there was a point made that the character didn't want to be with his girlfriend, and had actually requested a be transferred to get away from her. So why are we watching him plan a proposal? Why is he planning a proposal in the first place? There were really weird moments throughout the film where the sound quality would drastically change when a character was speaking but not on camera, despite supposedly being in the same room. ...

Christmas on Ice | Blogmas Day 21

  It's Blogmas day 21! Former figure skater Courtney (Abigail Klein) teams up with former hockey player Noah (Ryan Cooper) to save the local ice skating rink from closing. I picked this one because it just seemed so quintessentially rom-com-y that I had no choice! And it also seemed like it would be really Christmassy, which is always important for a Christmas film. Unfortunately this one wasn't as romantic as it could have been. But I will say the Christmas part holds up - is there anything more Christmassy than ice skating?? My main gripe with the film is that I completely fell in love with a couple and was willing to spent all my time and energy on them. The only problem was, it wasn't the main couple! It was the side couple who were given no time! If the main couple of this film had been Beth (Caroline Portu) and Trevor (Matthew Grimaldi) this could have been a great Christmas movie. I really liked what little I saw of them and wanted so much more than the film gave us....
