An Interview With Vicky Wright!

-
Hey Guys x

If you've not been reading my blog for a long time, then you might not know that I used to do interviews with bloggers!

I don't know why I stopped doing them. It's really embarrassing, but I've had this interview with Vicky sitting in my inbox since May last year! 

I'm so sorry that I haven't uploaded it yet Vicky!

But Vicky has an amazing blog that you can view here! Definitely check it out because it's amazing!

I copied this straight from my emails, which is why there's a white box around the text. Just ignore it!

Anyway, let's get on with the interview!

Introduce yourself to my readers in less than 5 words:
Tea, Cake, Disney, Music, Happy

What is your favourite song to listen to whilst blogging?
This is tough because I listen to so many songs! My two favourite albums to listen to whilst writing are 'Chaos and the Calm' by James Bay and 'The Balcony' by Catfish and the Bottlemen and my favourite songs from those to write to are 'Need the Sun to Break' and 'Cocoon' respectively

Who is your favourite blogger with under 200 followers?
Lou's World- obviously! Also, my incredible friend Katt has a blog too which I also adore http://katherinehxx.wordpress.com/

Fashion or food, what posts do you like to read more of?
Fashion- which is weird considering my tragic fashion sense. I think it's because I can't eat gluten which is in a lot of foods so food posts just make me jealous ^.^

What are you best and worst posts and why?
I think my best posts are when I write about something I'm really passionate about- instead of just a tag or my Top 5 Disney Princesses. I really love the playlist posts I do sometimes too because music's something I'm really passionate about and I read other people's playlists for inspiration. Plus they're so much fun to make!
And my worst- they're the ones where I'm totally uninspired but, being stubborn, I refuse to leave my blog empty. I went through a stage when I had the worst internet I've ever had to deal with so I would write short posts in the notes on my phone in the gym then copy and upload them whilst waiting at traffic lights near WiFi open zones. That was a bad time in all my blogging experiences 

Why did you decide to write your blog?
I had a chat with a lovely producer who works at Radio 1 about how to get into the radio industry because there are very few stations round ours to volunteer in and the ones that are here only accept 18+ because of insurance etc. Anyway, he recommended starting a blog about music to get practice and so I did. I enjoyed that it didn't matter if my grammar wasn't A* worthy- if anything, I think my bad grammar and frequent colloquialisms just add personality to my posts!

What about your blog would you want 1 million people to know?
I'd like 1 million people to know it existed! I'd like them to know how much work I do actually put into it- in a year, I've only ever missed my schedule once and that was because of a plane delay and no WiFi (I had a post, I just couldn't upload it!) I'm quite proud of that fact

Would you rather blog everyday or once a month?
Once a month! I did Blogmas round Christmas time and although I thoroughly enjoyed it, I was exhausted. Due to work/college I have to write at night after revision and homework, meaning if I haven't scheduled my work very well, I'll still be writing at 12:30am and I just couldn't do that everyday! I'd rather do one hefty post each month- even if people only read the first couple of paragraphs ^.^

Fun Question- If you could be any superhero, male or female, who would you be?
Forgive me for being extremely ignorant about superheroes, but I'm only familiar with the very common ones- I do want to learn about them all because I know people get very excited when Marvel gets mentioned, I've just not yet had time. Batman's really rich right? So maybe Batman. Or Wonder Woman because I want to kick-ass with blue hair!

Do you prefer taking your own pictures or using ones you find?
I only ever use pictures of album covers or quotes really so generally I just find them on the Internet. I always credit wherever I get them from though- I'm not sure if I have to because I don't earn any money from my blog, but I just think it's polite anyway

Would you want to blog full-time?
No I don't think so- but part time yeah. I think balancing it with a radio job would be a lot of fun

Where do you see your blog in the future?
I want to do a bit more music stuff. Maybe- and I don't know how this would work technically- live blogging a music event like a festival or awards ceremony. That would be really cool (although highly unrealistic). I'd love to do more collab posts too but I'm:
a) too shy to ask
b) very much lacking in collaboration ideas ^.^

Thank you so much Vicky for taking part in this!
And thank you for reading!

Comment below your answers to my questions, or leave my your email address and I could interview some of you guys!

Keep Smiling  - Lou xx

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

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

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

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

Girl Talk: Summer Fashion

This post is coming a day earlier than usual because I'm not going to be able to post anything tomorrow. I've said this before, but I don't think I know that much about fashion. My style is more comfortable than fashionable, nevertheless, I appreciate the fashion of other people. I am in love with a website called ' Polyvore ' which allows you to create many different outfits out of clothes that you can buy from high-street and designer stores. So I thought, why don't I make a collection of summer outfits and post them on my blog? Below are pictures of summer outfits that I've created, and how much each item of clothing costs. By clicking on the links, you can buy them online. I hope you like it!                                                                       Outfit 1 I love this outfit so much because the dress and shoes are very feminine, but the fabric vest makes it look a bit more masculine. The bag is gorgeous, but for me, it's to
