Plans for the Future (and Me, Earl and the Dying Girl)

Hiya!

Just a quick update here, to tell tales of my past week...

The most boring tales ever, that's for sure.

School has started, la-de-da.

I'm not saying schools been boring, it's just that apart from school nothing else has happened. And you don't want to read about school here, am I right?

Anyway, I'll probably get back to monthly favourites after a very very long Summer hiatus, and possibly attempt (and most likely fail at) writing a few posts about the wonderful things that I enjoy. Just for something different, rather than lacklustre update posts broken up by more lacklustre favourite posts.

So, moving on to the film.

I watched Me, Earl and the Dying Girl a few days ago (as you can tell from the title...). And now I feel obliged to write something about it, it's become a sort of tradition on here.

It was alright, I guess. Maybe I had high expectations, or maybe I've become numb to films (though I did cry in this one) but I found it just alright. It was very much like The Fault in Our Stars, in that there was the same theme of a dying person and their new friend, and the way the people's lives change due to the other. It may be bad timing or not, but it was a bit too similar.

And of course with TFIOS becoming such a big thing, this may have been a good thing- the first was a great success, the second should also be.

Personally though,

-well, you know what I'm going to say-

I thought it was alright.


I love you
