Movie Monday!!


Hello everyone!! so I wanted to start the week with a film review, I went to see 'Into the Woods' on Saturday night and I have to say I really enjoyed it, although I can see how it would not be to everyones tastes.
This film is based on an amalgamation of fairy-tales including Cinderella,Rapunzel,Red riding hood and Jack and the Beanstalk. It is also a disney film and a musical!!. The cast is full of wonderful actors and actresses most of the cast are well known. The main plot line and the fairytales are surrounding two characters, the Baker and the Bakers' wife, played by Emily Blunt and James Corden. who are both fantastic and have surprisingly good voices. Then the rest of the cast include, Johnny Depp, Anna Kendrick and Meryl Streep. 




The Storyline is very good and there are lots of unexpected moments, However is also appropriate for children, as is rated PG. Overall it is a very good film, I would say it isn't as feel good as you're typical Disney, however the plot is more interesting.

Here is the trailer and then the introductory song which is great.... all the songs are available on spotify.

I would highly recommend this film to all Disney lovers!!

Im back!! Happy 2015!!



Helloo blogging world!! I'm back i have had a bit of a break from blogging but I'm now back its the new year and I want to concentrate on my blog a lot more!! Hopefully I will be blogging twice a week not sure when they will be scheduled yet but I will figure that out once I start. I had a really nice Christmas and New year at home, went back to uni for exams week, finished that and now I have another three weeks off which seems utterly insane in my mind, however i am going to use these three weeks to better myself and get my life back on track. Starting unfortunately with my diet, Christmas has done so much damage to my appetite and snacking habits, so I am on a mission to kick them in the but. Hopefully if I have that sorted by the time i go back to uni, I will join the gym and I WILL go minimum of once a week. I decided that to be honest its nothing to do with wanting to loose weight... although that would be an added bonus.... its more that I feel tired all the time and have a lack of energy and motivation, so I'm hoping this will help get rid of this feeling, plus making myself more healthy overall!
This is one of my goals for 2015.... my other goals include.....

  • Volunteer at a folk festival ( which I went to last year as part of the audience)
  • Go to Canada with my family
  • Go on holiday with friends/boyfriend/both!
  • Do some work and work experience- I would like to earn some money and learn about the industry I study about.
  • I also would really like to go to a Christian festival
  • I would also like to be more organised in life in general.
These are my goals so far, I guarantee i will add some more as the year goes on but i will let you know!!
Keep it Peachy!! Xoxo

The Fault in our stars.....FILM REVIEW!

Hey guys.... so I recently went home for the weekend from uni, and it was so lovely to be at home and I got to see my boyfriend for the first time in ages which was amazing, but I also went and had a girlie night from the girls from my church group and we watched the Fault in our Stars.
So I have never read the book, so I can't speak  from that point of view but just my opinion of the film.

The fault in our stars is in my opinion a romantic tragedy, it kinda reminded me of Romeo and Juliet. The base to the story is of a girl called Hazel Grace Lancaster, who is a teenager who has fairly severe cancer of the lungs. This film takes you through the struggles of living with cancer but also the romance that takes place between Hazel and the leading man Augustus Waters. I won't give too much away, but as it goes I was told I would cry my eyes out at this film and most people do. However I did not cry, it was sad but not enough to make me cry, I don't know whether its because i'm an optimist and i just kept thinking of all the good things about their relationship and the things that happened in  the movie instead of focusing on the sad things .....?? who knows??.. Anyways, overall i do think it is a good movie, it is really well made and the story is good, I think I don't really like the romanticism of cancer but then also in some ways it counteracted that with some of the more 'cancer graphic' scenes. All I will say is if your looking for a cheery movie,..... this is not.

Hope you Enjoyed my review (sorry was a little rambley!)
Keep it peachy!! XoXo

Calling all Freshers......

Hi there everyone sorry its been a little while since my last post but over the last week I have officially moved to university and become what is known as a 'Fresher' here in England. Therefore we now have 'Freshers Week' to attend before we begin slogging our way to a degree, this is usually a time for icebreakers and nights out to get to know your flatmates and friends from your course.
Now I am going to be totally honest with you in this post and say that I an really not enjoying Freshers, my university instead of having one week has two weeks and in my opinion that is way to long, it also feels even longer as my uni has no activities going on in the day. Also if your some one like me you may find it difficult, as I really dislike alcohol and tend not to drink, which for some reason is what Freshers week is all about. Therefore I have decided to give you a few tips to surviving freshers week, also so I can rant a little, it has to be said somewhere!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Guide to Freshers Week!
1. Set out your room the way you like it. Dorms and halls are possibly the most uncharacterised places I have ever been, therefore it is necessary to have a lot of bright colours and the things that will make you feel the most comfortable (also you spend a lot of time there).

2.Talk to your family and friends, try phoning or going on Skype, I have had a really tough first week and its really helped to keep talking to people I trust and love, it makes you feel less alone in a strange environment.


3.Go out of your room, I haven't felt like leaving it ever but if you don't it'll just make homesickness worse, go for a walk round the new area you are in, go and sit in a local coffee shop with a book or people watch to kill some time.


4.Say yes- even if you don't want to do it, just commit to a small part of it, e.g. going to fresher events but going home at 12.00am instead of some ridiculous hour etc.


Keep it Peachy! XoXo


p.s. just to say this is my opinion of freshers but many many people will disagree, so you have to make your own mind up!

My favourite part of a roast has to be gravy and roast potatoes.... although I like everything in a roast!
