Hey Guys x So, I can announce that I am taking part in Blogmas this year! However, I'm not doing it the way I've always done it. Normally, Blogmas is 25 days of Christmas based posts, and that's what makes Blogmas special. However, not only can I not think of 25 Christmas based posts to write, but that's not really how I want to do it this year. I love Christmas, but there are a lot of things at Blogmas that I force myself to post about that I don't really care about, so I don't want to do it like that. This year, my biggest passion without a doubt has been movies - filmmaking, watching movies and actors. So I'm incorporating this into Blogmas. I'm really excited about this idea! So, I will be posting every day for Blogmas. Actually, I'm going to be posting every single day for the entirety of December - so there will be a new post on this blog every day until 2017 which is really fun! On certain days my Blogmas post will be a post...

Hey Guys x It's time for another Favourites post! I have too many things that I want to talk about this month and I really hope that you fall in love with the things that I've been loving this month! As always, leave your own favourites in the comments so that I can check them out! Favourite Movie: Hell or High Water Yes, my Chris Pine obsession continues greatly, but I have to say that I'd love this film whether he was in it or not. This film is about two brothers who rob banks so that their mother's ranch doesn't go into foreclosure. I could not describe it to be as amazing as it was, but it is such a good film. It's set up like a Western but it is so much more than that. It's dramatic, emotional, funny, it has everything that a good film needs and left me crying at the end - definitely a contender for a 2017 Oscar nomination! Watch this if you haven't because amazing isn't even a good enough word to describe it! Favourite TV Show: How T...

Hey Guys x I haven't done a playlist post in so long! In a way, that's a good thing because I've had a lot of time to fall in love with new music. So, here have been my favourite songs this month! Little Mix - Shoutout To My Ex I love this song so much! Honestly, I can't stop listening to it. I don't have an ex, but the song makes me happy to be rid of this non-existent man! Their vocals are on point, the video is really fun and I think it's really well written to. Overall, a great break-up single! Nathan Sykes - Famous As you may or may not know, I am a huge fan of Nathan, so I was really happy that this song was genuinely good. His voice is amazing, and he's one of the most underrated artists around right now. Listen to this song if you haven't and be blown away by his amazing talent! Chris Pine - Someday Came Today Yes, I'm currently in love with Chris Pine. I may be quite biased, but I think he has an amazi...

Hey Guys x So, welcome back to another 'Like A Writer' post! This time I'm talking about original ideas, or rather, my struggle with finding them! I don't know about you, but I definitely feel like everything that I think about writing has already been done in some shape or form, and there's nothing left! Especially because, in this day and age, things get popular so quickly because of social media. For example, 'The Girl On The Train' - it's the most popular thriller book and movie out right now, that I feel like anyone who writes a thriller will be compared to it. Not compared to the story exactly, but compared to the feeling that you get when you read it, and this is something that I definitely want to avoid when I eventually publish a novel - comparison. Of course, comparison is unavoidable, and a bit of comparison here and there after the product is released can be a good thing, a necessary thing. However, I hate comparing my story t...
