A rambling summary to half term so far...

After 8 weeks into year 13, we are now half way into half term - most definitely a much needed week off. Since I've not started any revision or essays, my week off seems to be pretty relaxed so far, although I'm feeling completely sleep deprived. A couple of months back an early night for me would be midnight/one o'clock, but nowadays a late night for me is eleven - I think I'm definitely getting old!

Cinema
My holiday has been very much cinema filled. I went to social network last week which I enjoyed, but you know a films not going to be Award-winning when 13 people walk out of its cinema viewing. I understand why people didn't enjoy it because its about how facebook came about - just slightly dramatised - and not a lot really happens throughout so I wouldn't go and buy it on DVD. It completely ruined Justin Timberlake - who plays a bad guy - for me. Not attractive in the slightest. He should've bust a move somewhere in the film too - might have made people stay!


Then, yesterday I went to see Paranormal Activity 2 with girls from college. Despite hating the first one, I thought I would go as I was told it would be better - which it was, but thats not really a difficult achievement. A couple of jumpy moments, but overall it was pretty poor and boring. So much so, I nearly fell asleep. Most of my excitement from that night came from the fact that I got into a 15 certificated film without being ID'd (many would say this isn't an achievement, but despite me being 18 next month, I don't think I've ever been to a 15 film without having to show proof of my age. I must be growing up! HA). However, the girls loved it and were completely freaked out saying it 'messed with their head'. Sooo, maybe I just didn't understand it properly? :P

Footy
Other than that, I've not really done alot. I went to watch Franco Baresi X1 vs All-stars at The Alex (Gresty Road) on Sunday between church. It was freezing cold, and Baresi's team kicked butt. Was definitely a laugh to see some of the All-stars attempts to play. It would be safe to say, they put on an entertaining performance.

Piers Morgan's Life Stories




Cheryl Cole. What a woman.

Saturday night, along with over 7 million other viewers, I was well and truly glued to my TV when Piers Morgan's Life Stories came on. With Cheryl Cole, a person I completely admire, as a guest, I really wasn't going to miss!
Listening to her interview and watching the genuine strength she has after all she's been through was amazing. Malaria, a divorce, negative press ... and still fighting! Ah, if you haven't noticed, I love the woman - even if she did put Cher through to the finals on the X Factor. Fume!

Something i've never understood is why footballers, despite it being morally wrong, cheat on their beautiful wives? Eurgh, it makes me so angry. Ashley cole, is most definitely, a stupid man!
