Blogmas!!

-
 

I've been thinking about this since the beginning of October, and I have decided to do Blogmas!

I decided to do it because, this is my first Christmas blogging, so I thought it would be really fun! As well as this, I enjoyed many YouTubers Vlogmas videos last year, so I thought it would be cool to do my own spin on it.

There are many different variations of blogmas, so let me explain what I will be doing!

I will be posting every day from 1st December to 24th December, which is really exciting because I have never daily blogged before.

I know that when YouTubers do Vlogmas, they just daily vlog and take you around with them every day, but mine will be slightly different.

Because I'll still be in college for most of blogmas and doing coursework when I'm not at college, blogging about each day would, I feel, be really boring as I don't do a lot of interesting things!

So, instead of this, I will be posting something Christmas related every day! I have already planned most of these posts and I'm really excited for December to come!

This, however, means that for December I will not be posting 'Girl Talks'. I think I'm posting one book review during blogmas, but I'm not doing any more until blogmas is finished. As for the 'Girl Talks', I won't be posting any for the whole of blogmas, and I haven't yet decided whether I'll continue them after Christmas when blogmas is finished, or whether I'll continue with a Christmas theme and go back to them in January.

I also know that not everyone celebrates Christmas, so although a lot of the posts will be Christmas based, I have a few that are just 'Winter' based, so that everyone has something to enjoy!

I'm really looking forward to writing these posts and I hope you're looking forward to a more festive 'Lou's World'!

    I love this idea. I am also in school and I am applying for residency and jobs so my days are extremely boring. I'm going to do 25 days of Christmas/winter because I like your idea of the fact that not everyone celebrates Christmas.

Venom: The Last Dance | Film Review

While on the run, Eddie Brock and Venom (Tom Hardy) are pursued by a dangerous military organisation. But when aliens from Venom's home world come to Earth, the pair have to make a devastating decision that will change their lives forever. I watched the first Venom movie when it came out years ago, didn't really like it that much, and subsequently didn't watch the second. But totally randomly last week I decided to re-watch the first movie, and ended up liking it enough to also watch the second. And as soon as I finished that, I went to the cinema to see this new one. I really liked this film - it was so much better than I thought it was going to be! My favourite thing about this franchise is the relationship between Eddie and Venom, and for me this film was the best version of the characters together. Because, while the comedic moments between the pair are still there, there's a lot more heart in this story than there has been previously, and this is especially evident

Smile 2 | Film Review

After a harrowing accident, popstar Skye Riley (Naomi Scott) is putting her life back together and embarking on a world tour. But after witnessing a suicide, she begins to experience strange occurrences - the strangest of which is a smile that seems to follow her wherever she goes...  Having absolutely loved the first film, I was so excited to see where this next one would take the storyline, and it seemed really promising! But my high expectations were probably why I ended up being so disappointed with the final result. I know that this is definitely an unpopular opinion, but I didn't really like this sequel. However, I did like how it began. It directly connects itself to the first film in a really interesting way, and that was fun to watch. Then it kind of went downhill. For me personally, I didn't love the character of Skye Riley. I didn't really feel connected to her, and it never felt like the film allowed me to get to know her that well. So as much as the events are

Book Review #138: Kill For Me, Kill For You by Steve Cavanagh

  After meeting by chance one evening, Amanda and Wendy realise they have something in common - they are both experiencing grief and want to make the men who destroyed their families pay. Knowing they can never exact the revenge they crave, they come up with an idea: if you kill for me, I'll kill for you... The premise of the book is deliberately vague, but I think the main idea of it is enough to give you a flavour of what the story is about. I have mixed feelings about this book. There's so many things about it that I really loved, but there are also a few things that I could have done without. To start off, the first two chapters are absolutely riveting. I feel like it took no time at all to bond and connect with the characters. Not only are the chapters exciting, but they're also really visceral. You feel like you're living in the scenes with the characters. It would have been amazing if the whole book had stayed like this. The story is told from two points of view,

Lagaan | 100 Movies Bucket List

Of all the movies I watched for the bucket list, this one was without a doubt the hardest to track down. Thankfully I managed to find it but it was looking impossible for a while! I ended up watching a version that didn't include the musical numbers, so I had to listen to the soundtrack separately, which felt really weird. But at the same time, I don't feel like anything was missing from the story by not having the songs in it. I'd never heard of the film before, but an almost 4-hour long movie about cricket wasn't exactly enticing. Thankfully the film is a lot more interesting than it sounds! There's a lot of underlying themes, and even when the scenes are about cricket, the game isn't really the most important thing. It was really fun spending time with these characters and seeing them interact. The one thing I didn't expect from this film was for it to be so uplifting. Even though it's not entirely sunshine and rainbows, you fall into step with this g

City of God | 100 Movies Bucket List

At this point in the bucket list we start getting to the films that are a bit harder to find. I had never heard of this film before seeing it on the list, and I didn't look it up before watching it (beyond searching for a platform to watch it on), so I had no idea what it was about. Sometimes when I'm watching the bucket list movies I write a couple of little notes to remind myself how I felt about it, as I don't give them full reviews. For this one, the only thing I wrote was 'harrowing' and I think that describes it well. The film doesn't shy away from anything troubling or uncomfortable, and it doesn't try to sugar-coat what the characters are going through, or what their lives were like. Apparently it's loosely based on true events and that feels really evident. Because of that, these characters feel extremely authentic. Whether you're familiar with their lives or not, you empathise and sympathise with them because it feels like you're watchi
