I recently lost my job, so naturally I have a lot of
time on my hands, so this post is something I’ve been really into lately. I’ve
been watching a lot of films and I wanted to share my top ten favourite films
with you all. This list isn’t in any particular order. Let me know what your
favourite films are in the comments or tweet me!
There may be a few spoilers in this, but I promise I’ll try
not to!
- 500 Days Of Summer
- Gone Girl
- The Perks Of Being A Wallflower
- Safe Haven
- Hurricane Bianca
Ok, so, if you know me you’ll know my all time favourite
film is 500 days of summer. I don’t know why it is, it just is. I love the
soundtrack, I love the actors and actresses in it and I adore the story line.
Zooey
Deschanel and Joseph Gordon Levitt have to be the most talented duo!! 500 Days Of Summer is a romantic comedy (my
favourite type of film, for sure.) It starts a little sad
but with hints of comedy, you go through all the days that Tom, Joseph Gordon
Levitt’s character and Summer, Zooey Deschanel’s character were together. You
see some bits of their relationship in ‘real-time’ and every time I watch it,
it gets me right in the feels! I’m trying not to give anything away but I
highly recommend giving it a watch.
If you haven’t seen or read Gone Girl, whyyyyy? It’s
absolutely crazy, it messes with your
head… but what I find about this film is the more you watch it the more you put
pieces of the puzzle together. The film is super long, by super long I mean 2
and a half hours but its brilliant! The story has got so many different layers
to it, and I love that. It makes you think. The cast is simply amazing and
completely draws you in. If you know of any more films/books like this, please
let me know!!
The Perks Of Being A Wallflower is so beautifully scripted,
played and written. I read the book before I watched the film; I’d heard so many great things about the film I
went and bought it on DVD. I think Logan Lerman plays Charlie sooooo well, I don’t think I’d be able
to picture anyone else convey him! The storyline is so beautiful it definitely made me think about how I was in school. Everyone talks about Emma Watson in this film but I think
Logan Lerman wins this one for me.
Everyone needs to watch this film. Bianca Del Rio is hands down the funniest drag queen, ever. When she was on Drag Race I couldn't help but love her! I think if I had of watched the film first I would of thought she was a bit too much, I'm glad I watched her season on Drag Race first. There are so many lol's throughout this movie.

Happy new year guys! Here's to 2018, let's hope it's a good'un for us all.
In 2017 I learnt a few lessons. The first is Save your money. In 2017 I started a new job, granted I didn't like it much but it was my income, it was me learning about that profession and it also taught me to never start my own business. I was at this place for all of 4 months before they laid me off, although it was a weight off my own shoulders it left me in a position of not having any income. I'm not a great saver, I see things and immediately purchase. I don't think about what I'm doing. It's a problem, I know.
People come and go. This is something I struggled to understand. I couldn't get my head around people coming into my life and walking straight back out of it. Now looking back, it all makes sense. These people came into my life for a reason and they went back out of it, again, for a reason. Who knows what the reason is but it'll all come together.
Social media is a show. Who posts shit days on social media? Nobody. I realised this while watching family vloggers. I can't remember which family it was in particular but someone had commented on a video of theirs and said 'Your life is just soooo perfect' and they addressed it by saying 'It's definitely not perfect, we show 15 minutes of our 24 hour day. We don't show the kids arguing or fighting with each other and we don't show us disciplining them. Our life is not perfect.' it hit me hard realising that, yeah, I only post photos when I've got makeup on and my hairs done. Madness when you realise.
These are just 3 of the lessons I learnt in 2017, what did you learn? If you have any tips for me on how to save money, let me know in the comments below! I'd love to read some of your tips and tricks.
