Life...

I'm becoming that annoying person that at the start of each blogpost I'm like 'oh hello I haven't wrote a blogpost in a while because *insert excuse here*'. And when I am gone I'm not away long enough to be like let me list my exciting life experiences to you all. So here it goes, im not motivated when it comes to blogging at the moment. I am in a part of my life where I'm having to plan my future and focus on getting good grades but all I want to do is go traveling for 20 years and come back with an extremely good looking Greek husband and a life that is sorted. This is going to be a kind of catching up post, rolling about five potential posts into one. My brain has gone mad, wish me luck. 


1. I really want to travel to Brazil. I know it's not the safest place in the world but right now I don't care. Many I'll have to go when I'm older as I'll be able to stay in a place where I will have less chance of being robbed; I think this obsession has a large part to do with me falling in love with Neymar Jr at the world cup last year so I dread to know what I'll be like when the Olympics is there.


2. Community is one of the best shows ever in my opinion. It's hilarious and the fact all seasons have been put onto Netlfix is perfect.If you haven't watched it before please do, you honestly won't regret it, the episodes are only 20 minutes long so you don't feel bad when you watch five in a row. I love so many of these characters it's ridiculous. Everyone needs to watch just to experience Troy and Abed. 


3. I recently finished We Were Liars and the end made up for the beginning and middle not being as exciting as I was expecting it to be. I feel like I have never read a book with a bigger plot twist than this; I feel like I need to read it again now I know all the details they were hiding. I'm really trying to finish all the books I have before I go and buy anymore. Life of Pi is my love. It's one of the most quotable books I've ever read and it sounds weird but it just makes you think about life in a completely different way. Anyway, it needs to be finished, I had to stop when I kept having dreams I was being eaten by animals but luckily that doesn't seem to be happening at the moment.


 4. I'm now into the last stage of my art foundation; the piece above was the final design for my previous project. It has this great in depth meaning behind it but I don't think this post is the best thing to explain it in. I've really been enjoying art again lately; when I was getting ready to go to University interviews I felt like I had this great pressure to create amazing pieces but now I just enjoy creating the work I want to and see how it ends up. 


 5. I'm going to keep this last one short, I don't have Instagram and I need to make one. I think I worry too much that I'll be judged on social media but I need to keep in contact with my friends when they go to uni and think Instagram is the platform for me.

There's really nothing like Netflix...


To say I'm obsessed with Netflix is an understatement. When I first saw the amount Netflix had to offer me it was like Jesus had risen right in front of me; when I had finally chosen something to watch it didn't take me long to finish all episodes of it. Although many of my favourite shows had come before having a Nerflix account; programmes like Game of Thrones won't be found here and my beloved Vampire Diaires was found far before Netflix was but my TV consumption is at an extreme high and I thought I would share with you some of the best things Netflix has to offer. You might be expecting some and others are going to be an extreme throwback. Maybe I will just start with five to begin with:

Buffy the Vampire Slayer a throwback, yes, but a very good one. I feel like 2014 was the year of the Buffy for me. I literally could talk about this show for a whole blogpost. It has all the best elements of a TV programme rolled into one; apart from the special effects, move past them and Buffy is all you will need. 

Sons of Anarchy consumed my life that badly that I ended up breaking my chair because I watched it for so long. Falling in love with Charlie Hunnam probably helped my obsession to grow although in the first season I found myself getting confused with who everyone was and which gang got along with which. The seasons are short and the story is addictive but prepare yourself because on UK Netflix the last season hasn't arrived yet.

Pretty Little Liars is my recently watched at the moment. I used to watch it when it first started but for some reason it just disappeared from my life. I have now seen season one twice and season two is just as good. Shay Mitchell has become my gym inspiration and I'm excited to continue watching to find out the answers to the million questions this show creates. 

Orange Is the New Black is amazing, you probably already know this. Waiting for the next season is going to be the longest wait of my life. I never knew I could become so attached to women in prison but thankfully Netflix uploads the whole series in one; I then just have to ration the episodes so I don't watch them all too quickly. 

Brooklyn Nine-Nine is a recent love but a strong one. There is only two things I hate about it; the episodes are twenty minutes long and only season one is available. Everything else is hilarious and I would recommend it to anyone.
