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

JUNE FAVOURITES

Hiya my gorgeous peepsicles! As I mentioned a month ago, I'm thinking of doing monthly favourites, just as something different to my normal blogging. So without further ado, here you go, my favourite things of June...

Food: Waitrose 'Rich & nutty Belgian chocolate chunk & hazelnut all butter cookies'. Woah that's a mouthful. But it is literally what the packaging says, it's got the most delicious chocolate chip chunks, and it's so buttery and rich. However, I kinda hate it right now as well, because I can't help eating it, even though I told myself I need to stop eating sugary sweet foods. Though that didn't stop me from eating a whole packet of Starbursts today so...oops?

Film: There are two films I've really enjoyed this month, and they are How to Train Your Dragon and The Fault in our Stars, unsurprisingly judging by the number of times I've mentioned them. TFIOS is really popular right now (and rightly so), I don't want to give away too much, but it's got cancer, happy moments, cute moments, and seriously sad moments, AKA half the film. The storyline is amazing (and just like the book, for those of you who've read it) and it really showed me how my problems, such as not having any more chocolate or being annoyed that the wifi is turned off, are really really really insignificant and unimportant. I mean, even though it's a fiction, it's still got loads of truth in it.

And HTTYD is just plain adorable, there are no other words for it. I want my own Night Fury now :(

Makeup: Bourjois Color Boost in the shade Peach on the Beach. I've had it for a while now, but seeing that I don't really wear makeup, I haven't worn it in a while. But last week I was going through all my lip things, and I put a bit on, and omg I'm in love with it again. It's pink, but its a really subtle colour, sometimes almost the same shade as my natural lip colour. But that's what I love about it, it stands out, but doesn't look like I'm overdoing it. Also, apparently it's waterproof, lasts 10 hours, and has SPF15. Which is great.

Clothing: I've got a clear favourite in terms of clothing for June. For about half the month, whenever there wasn't school, I literally wore the same outfit, as long as no one saw me in it twice. And not only going out quite a lot in June, I also met loads of people...so I had plenty of excuses to wear it again and again... Basically, it's skinny jeans, light grey camisole, and a candy pink winged jumper (I think that's what it's called...) Don't judge, but I wore it for about 4 days in a row once...I'm disgusting...

Anyways, that's all for today. I went to one of our family friends' house today for a BBQ (I seem to be having a lot of those recently), but we had to drive for ages to get there and then get back, so I'm so sleepy. And I was wearing wedges, and trust me, even though they're not as bad as heels, it's still hard to run after a 6-year-old kid in them.

So toodles, love y'all, bye! xxx
