An Interview With Izzy!

-

Hey Guys x

So, a while ago, I interviewed a few people and they were all kind enough to send me back their answers.

However, I haven't been uploading them because I don't want to do too many at one time. So if I've interviewed you, don't worry, I haven't forgotten!

And if I haven't emailed you about an interview yet, you might have an email coming your way within the next month!

Anyway, the wonderful Izzy K has agreed to be interviewed by me, so thank you so much Izzy, I really appreciate it!

The Interview

How and why did you pick your blog name?
 I really wanted something personal for my blog so I decided to use my real name. However, I didn't want to use my full name because I was absolutely terrified that someone from my school would find it. That's why I compromised with "Izzy K".   

 What is the hardest thing about blogging?
Honestly? I find the hardest thing is simply not being able to do it enough. If it was up to me I would write posts 24/7 because it's my favourite hobby, but unfortunately I have to schedule writing around my school work.
  
If you could collab with any blogger, who would it be?
I'd collab with any Beau Blogger that would like to. They're all such lovely people and very talented bloggers. They have made me feel very welcome in the world of blogging so it would be amazing to feature on their blogs. 

What blogging category do you fall into and why?
On my blog "Izzy K" I would say that I'm more a lifestyle blogger. I write about my life experiences, feelings and the things I've been getting up to. I also have a second blog, "Izzy K: Reviews & More", which is more of a beauty and fashion blog. Not that I really know what I'm talking about, I just find it really fun. 

What would you post if you knew that 1 million people would read it?
OMG the thought of having 1 million people reading a post would be so scary but so exciting. I'd probably write about something like my favourite charity, because if that many people would be reading it, it would be nice to be able to make a change in the world.

If you could change one thing about your blog, what would it be?
I would change the layout. I'm happy with the colour scheme for my blogs, however I would like something a bit more professional looking. 

If you could interview one person for your blog, who would it be?
That would probably have to be Zoella! It sounds cliche, I know, but if it wasn't for her talking about her blog, I probably would have never considered trying it for myself. I'd like to know what made her start in the first place, and how she got to where she is today. 

Would you rather have badly written posts with 1 million followers or amazingly written posts with no followers?
I would definitely have to go with an amazingly written post with no followers. I always aim to write the best posts that I possibly can, and I try to improve on that with every post I write. For me blogging isn't about how many followers I have, its simply a way to express myself. Also, you could always gain followers if you have amazing content and I would much prefer that to being known for having badly written posts. 

What about your blog makes you smile?
I love reading all the lovely comments people leave me. I love being part of a blogging community where everyone is so supportive. Thank you so much to everyone who has ever left me a nice comment because it really makes my day!

If you could switch places with a blogger for a day, who would it be?
I'd love to see what it would be like to be Kristina Bazan from Kayture. I love reading her posts about all the places she gets to travel as part of being a fashion blogger. She is quite literally living my dream and if I could experience it, even only for a day, that would be incredible. 

Where do you see your blog in the future?
I want to continue writing my blog for as long as possible. Therefore I see it still existing in the future. My goal with my blog is just to keep writing, and writing, and writing...
 
Again, thank you so much Izzy for your participation and amazing answers!

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
