Bucket list


1. Have a beer and sing some karaoke with Blake Shelton
Okay so this would mainly consist of me drinking beer and Blake cracking out the tunes on the karaoke, but I mean what sort of person in my opinion would not want to do this! The dude is super talented and seems like a class down to earth person, I mean if it happened to be a hot summer day a BBQ wouldn't go a miss but yeah this is that one thing on your bucket list that is allowed to be totally impossible.

2. See the New York skyline at sunset
Seeing New York in general is something that I aspire to do but I mean this has got to be one of the most beautiful sights in the world (apart from the above mentioned Blake on karaoke!)

3. Be a cast member in a west end musical
As someone who is in love with musicals this would be a dream come true, I would not want to be in the spotlight (I don't deal with pressure) but being a whore in Les Mis could be fun, or maybe a soroity girl in Legally Blonde the musical or a munchkin in Wicked.

4. Campaign/make a difference for bullying
I saw a documentary once called 'Bully' and it completely changed me, I felt the intense need to protect the kids and I now would love to be able to make a difference to someone having experienced bullying for most of my life.

5. Learn to drive
I really have wanted to do this since I was 17 and could first start to learn but as a poor college student trying to progress to university I am afraid I wont be able to afford to do so till later on in life, but it is something I very much intend to do someday!

I wonder if any of you read this and think... yeah I'd put that on my bucket list too let me know, or even comment and let me know what's on your list already!

Safe Haven

I'm firstly going to talk about this movie's very few good points,  I personally thought that Josh Duhamel was shirtless for enough of this movie to make it intriguing! And Julliane Hough looked incredible in the Roxy bikini.

However not much else of this movie was worth the watch, the plot line was as predictable as Justin Bieber becoming another troubled teen star. And I don't know about anyone else but I certainly saw that coming!
However the supernatural twist was something that I did not see coming well until it was heavily hinted when Julianne's character Katie/Aaron asked Jo played by Cobie Smulders why she didn't leave the small town that they inhabited, I personally would love to live in a place that beautiful, especially if the local shop keeper looked like Josh's character.
Admittedly one character I did enjoy was the detective, David Lyons performance was hauntingly creepy and to a certain extent terrifying.

Now I'm normally one to read books first but this time was an exception, and after seeing the predictable, boring story line unravel in this movie I am not sure I want to read the book. However it may end up being a nice holiday read.

I would probably give this movie a 5/10 mainly for Josh Duhamel's face and the beautiful letter Jo writes which is revealed at the climax of the movie.

I've definitely decided to start a blog

I suddenly felt the urge to inform any person who may unfortunately came across this blog of my thoughts and feelings on whatever floats or in some circumstances sinks my boat.

I'm not at all certain to what extent I will be bothered to update this considering I am an extremely busy, unemployed college student just passing her time reading books and watching badly interpreted movies of said books. One of which I just happened to waste two hours of my life watching tonight.  Any way completely of topic. So I suppose I should say something about myself right, without giving away too much information, I would like my identity intact ;)

I'm 19, studying English, History and reluctantly psychology, all of which I hope to use to get into university one day... hopefully soon.
So yeah i'm not entirely sure what to write, although I am sure that this sort of thing becomes easier over time, maybe ill post next time while in a more reflective, or aggravated mood. I am always more fun when I am angry...

Till then, be seeing ya!
