What Would Blair Waldorf Do?

Hey Guys x So today's post is gonna be a little chat about one way that I've learned to handle my anxiety. I started uni on October 2nd. And when I say I was terrified, I mean I was TERRIFIED. I'm in my third year now, so this definitely shouldn't feel as daunting as it did, and of course, that's to do with my anxiety. I have anxiety surrounding various aspects of my life, the main one of which is about being in social situations. So having to sit in 2 hr long seminars multiple times a week is a big source of fear for me, and part of the reason why I hate going. So anyway, this year the anxiety was, and is, really bad. Meditation wasn't working, CBT never really worked for me, and I was just so worried about this. While I was creating a new laptop screensaver for myself, I came across the phrase 'What Would Blair Waldorf Do?' Blair Waldorf is a character from the TV show Gossip Girl, one of my favourite shows, and she's one of my favou

Hey Guys x Like last month, this month's 'Favourites' post is up late. I had a lot going on at the end of last month, particularly getting ready for university, so I completely blanked on writing this post. But I'm writing it now, and if you're reading this, then I got it up eventually! What were your favourite September things? Let me know in the comments! Favourite Movie: IT (2017) I've reviewed this already, so you can check that out here ! But in general, I absolutely loved this film!

The Roommate | Film Review

Hey Guys x So, today's review is on, as you can see, The Roommate. The first thing I have to say is that, this film's reviews aren't really good. It only has a 4% on Rotten Tomatoes, and I think that's really unfair, so I'm giving my honest and unbiased review in spite of the criticism. This film is about a girl called Sara who stars college away from home. There she finds a boyfriend, makes friends, and meets her roommate Rebecca, who seems like a genuinely nice girl, if a bit introverted. However, as time goes on, Rebecca starts to become more and more controlling of Sara, getting annoyed when she stays out late and wearing her things without permission. Is Rebecca just overstepping the boundaries of being a roommate, or is there something seriously wrong with her? What drew me to the film was the cast. It stars Minka Kelly, Leighton Meester (Blair from Gossip Girl), Cam Gigandet (James from Twilight), Aly Michalka (from Disney), Kat Graham (Bonnie
