8 Photos Of Happiness!

-
Hey Guys x

Lately, I've been trying not to do tags, just because I've done a lot in the past, but I've been nominated and tagged in a few things over the last 2 weeks.

This tag (as well as others) really stood out to me.

I was tagged by the amazing Emma and you should all go and check out her blog because it's amazing!

It was also created by Ariel, whose blog I've only just discovered, but I can already see it's amazing!

The Rules
Thank your nominator/s and link them in the post
Link the creator Ariel

Pop in a brief description of the photo, why you chose it or let the photos do the talking!
Spread the happiness and tag up to ten other bloggers!

This picture is from New Year's Eve. It's the first one in my photos of happiness because it just holds such happy memories for me. I was out with some of my closest friends, just having a really great day. I generally hate thinking about the past, because it's usually filled with anxiety and embarrassment, but this day is one that I would relive over and over again!

This was one of the first pictures that I had ever taken myself and put on my blog. Rain makes me happy, extremely happy. And this picture of the rain on the car window just makes me feel really comfortable and calm, and I love that feeling!

Books books books books books! I don't actually know if there's anything that makes me more happy than a bookshelf filled with amazing books. I couldn't not have books somewhere in this list, but I thought, why not use my own books!

4

Disney Disney Disney Disney Disney! Disney, along with books, makes me the most happy that a person could be! In fact, I would love to have a day where I could just sit down and watch Disney movies while reading my favourite books without feeling guilty for doing nothing!

This picture represents baking... anything! I love to bake and I really don't do it enough. But when I have all of my ingredients out and a recipe in front of me, before I even start baking anything, I feel really happy. And of course, eating what I bake is another thing that makes me really happy!

I don't think I've ever really expressed my love for singing on my blog, mainly because I can't really sing! But I love to sing! Whether it's on singing games, or just at home alone, I really like singing, specifically if I know all of the words to a song!

For me, this camera represents blogging and photography. Blogging is my favourite hobby and I can't imagine spending my days doing anything else. I like taking my own pictures for my blog, but even is I don't, I still love looking at other people's pictures and editing my own, which is why this tag is perfect!

This is a word document which represents writing, but a book rather than a blog post. This is actually a page from the book that I've been writing, which is exciting because, even though I'm not even halfway through, it's beginning to feel like a real thing. But even if it wasn't this book, I love to write and I will always be writing a book or story of some sort!

Thanks again to Emma for nominating me!

I nominate: Chloe, Izzy, Crystal, Carolyn, Erin and Vicky! (plus anyone reading that wants to do it!)

Thank you for reading

Comment below what makes you happy!

Keep Smiling - Lou xx

    Hi! :) Thank you so much for tagging me! I love the idea behind this post so I'm excited to do this soon! Last year I decided to re-watch all of our old disney movies, so I made my sisters sit down and watch them with me; it was one of the best decisions of my life (a movie a day) and you really see the movies differently especially if you haven't seen them in a while. You should do it! :D

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
