a few things I’ve changed (conscious living) 👜

  I have been trying to live a more consciously for over a year and I think I have gotten to a point where I have an idea of what is worth purchasing. So here is my update from my previous "eco-friendly changes" blog. My thoughts still follow a less waste lifestyle and therefore only…

propagating and growing plants 🌱

  25/03/2019 day 1. A recent obsession of mine is growing plants. Maybe it's in my blood, or just the inspiration around me I love watching it grow. Today, me and my parents went out and bought some strawberry plants, not intentionally, but we thought it would be fun. That it is. This prompted us…

becoming more eco friendly 🌿🌱

this has been a goal for quite a while now and being more eco friendly consists of not just switching out things in your life, but also not wasting what you already have. This means using everything I have til it has no more use for me so then when I make a new purchase,…

Everyday Kindness   Kindness (n.) The quality of being friendly, generous, and considerate. "he thanked them for their kindness and support"   .   When we look for books to read, we look for different types, maybe fictional or fiction, something to inform us or just escapism. But sometimes we want something that will teach…

Loving Vincent (2017) ❤︎

I appreciate art, and the art of cinematography. This movie brings both of these things together to recreate a beautiful story of Vincent Van Gogh. They say that those with the most creative minds have the most crazy minds. And this shows his crazy, and confused mind and how his art was produced from that.…

Star Trek (2009) Review

Director: J.J. Abrams Writers: Roberto Orci, Alex Kurtzman Starring: Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Simon Pegg   There are a lot of Star Trek variations including the series and the movies. But the 2009, J. J. Abrams version is the one I watched. Star Trek really isn’t something I would watch. I never watched the series…

A Review: Goodbye Christopher Robin 🐻

Starring: Domhall Gleeson, Margot Robbie and Will Tilston Directed by: Simon Curtis Written by: Frank Cottrell Boyce and Simon Vaughan   Based on the Winnie the Pooh stories, this new movie arose of the story of the creation. I grew up with these characters in writing, pictures and on screen. I often still appreciate occasional…

Black Panther (2018) 🎥

Starring: Chadwick Boseman Director: Ryan Coogler Writer: Ryan Coogler, Joe Robert Cole   Another long waited Marvel film is out, directed by Ryan Coogler; Black Panther. I was particularly excited for this one, maybe because it was a new character that Marvel has not based a movie on before or just because it’s a Marvel film.…

Philharmonia Orchestra 🎻

An Orchestra consists of a large assemble of musical instruments playing classical music. The Philharmonia Orchestra was conducted by Juraj Valčuha. I am not one for classical music, but new experiences and everything. Live music usually sounds amazing and I didn’t doubt this would sound great. What I expected is the older generation dressed up…

Time ⌚️

I got a watch recently. Random. But incredibly useful and yes I have a phone, but somehow, taking a phone out of my pocket seems like more effort. Even though it is deemed to be high tech and everyone uses it for the time, a watch seems more practical. It didn’t seem worth it, but…

DIY Clouds ☁️

In the theme of this blog and just for fun, I made some DIY cloud decor! I’m not an expert in DIY projects, but once in a while, I try, and it doesn’t turn out too bad. But this actually turned out quite well, so I thought I’d share my efforts. I’m sure I saw…

A new lifestyle 🌱

It’s 2018! This brings new years resolutions, and this means a chance to constantly improve and achieve all those goals. One of the main things I want to do is change my lifestyle to a no waste life. In this day and age, everything comes in packaging so I will do the best I can,…

Walter Mitty

Starring: Ben Stiller Director: Ben Stiller Writer: Steve Conrad   This 2013 screenplay directed by the main actor himself, Ben Stiller, isn inspirational film that I have only just come to watch recently. The motion graphics was fantastically done and has had several mentions. The cinematography, by Stuart Dryburgh, of this film is fantastic, so I…

ZOO FISH 🌍

I used to want to be a zoo keeper or owner because I love animals. But after watching documentaries and people telling me, I finally realised that it is worse for the animals to be there. They are being held captive and even though you are presenting them to the public, they aren’t meant to…

Review: Before the Flood 🌱

Documentary: Before the Flood (2016) Starring: Leonardo DiCaprio Director: Fisher Stevens Writer: Mark Monroe   I’ve been meaning to watch this documentary for quite a while now. What further pushed me to watch it, was my Television Documentary module at University. It was pretty much research, which is what I told myself. But it did…

Remember the 5th of November 💫🔥

Bonfire Night! One of my favourite times of the year! I don’t really know what it is about it, the fireworks, being in the cold and looking at beautiful colours in the sky. Or just a nice time spending time with people enjoying something spectacular. But I look forward to it every year. This year…

The meaning of Hallowe’en…

Halloween is slowly creeping up on us, just 1 day away. Pumpkins are being carved, people are dressing up, drinking and partying. And people seem to wonder, why are we dressing up, buying and carving pumpkins, and what even are we celebrating? Halloween is an annual holiday that is celebrated on the 31st October, which…

Abbey Park

They have such a cute animal area. I think it was called 'The Pets Corner'. They had rabbits, goats, chickens, birds and some others.

a cleanse

I always see people on their phones, on social media and messaging. Half the time, we don't look around and appreciate what is actual around and in front of us, but on the screens we're staring at. We would rather type instead of talking on the phone, using our voices. We've lost touch and forget…
