Ashley's Questions

1. Why did you start to blog?
I always loved writing, and before I even knew about blogger, I was trying to find a way to write something that I could keep updating. I tried tumblr and wattpad, but when I started watching YouTubers, I decided to try blogger, as they had.

2. If you could have any superpower, what would it be and why?
Teleportation, and the ability to duplicate myself. For example, one of me could be in a lesson while the other me could be watching YouTube videos all day!

3. What is your favourite beauty product?
I use Clinique moisturiser but I don't know if that's considered a beauty product?

4. Knowing what you know now, what would you tell your 15 year old self?
Don't revise so hard for engineering. You're not going to need it in later life and you fail the exam anyway!

5. Who is your favourite fictional character?
Becky Brandon from the shopaholic books or anyone from Family Guy!

6. Are you a cat or a dog person?
Neither, I'm not an animal person at all. If I had to pick, it would probably be a cat.

7. If you were stuck on a desert Island and could only have three items, what would they be?
I'm assuming that I have no form of electronics or communication, so I could take a pile of books (as one item), a camera (because the scenery would probably be nice) and a cooler bag with different foods and drinks.

8. Top three television programmes?
Wild at heart, Modern Family and Family Guy

9. Guiltiest pleasure?
'Diary of a Wimpy Kid' books. Always my guilty pleasure!

10. What is your favourite quote?
'You will always be the best version of you' - Tyler Oakley

11. What is your current favourite blog?
Louise aka Sprinkle of Glitter

Catriona's Questions

1. What's your favourite flavour of ice-cream?
Vanilla. I'm very boring!

2. If you could spend the day with anyone in the world, who would it be?
Louise (sprinkle of glitter) or Jack Howard. Ideally both of them together!

3. If you could only listen to one song for a month, what would it be and why?
Thinking out loud by Ed Sheeran

4. Do you play an instrument(s). If so, what?
When  I was younger, I used to play a bit of piano and guitar, but now I don't really play anything.

5. Team Edward of Team Jacob?
I'm team Emmett! (As in Edward Cullen's older brother). But also both team Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner equally!

6. Team Peeta or Team Gale?
I don't know a lot about the Hunger Games, but I'm team Peeta after reading the first book.

7. Guilty Pleasure?
Again, 'Diary of a Wimpy Kid' books.

8. Favourite quote from a book?
"You only get one life. It's actually your duty to live it as fully as possible" - Me Before You

9. Chocolate or crisps
Chocolate all the way!

10. Who is your idol/ who inspires you?
Again, Louise (Sprinkle of Glitter) inspires me in many more ways than I'll write about now. That needs it's own post!

11. Favourite place in the world?
London. Where I live, and I couldn't imagine living anywhere else.

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

-
Image
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
