Walking in a winter wonderland.

So today was a fun one. Since the arrival of the snow (and after our week off school because of it) everyday seems to be a good one. Today one of my friends had to film a few shots for her media project; to make a music video. This excited us to know end. So we ventured, out into the ice and glistening snow to a secluded spot behind the sixth form block, a good long patch of grass that was covered by a foot of snow.

Now of course it didn't start off as a very productive outing as we almost ended up reinacting the 'last christmas' video whilst my friend was planning her shots, in fact a few verses o the song may have been sung whilst we skipped about... There's something about the snow that seriously reverts you to being about seven years old. So after prancing around like idiots, making snow angels (well one of us) and singing to our hearts content the shooting began.

The story of the music video is a classic boy meets girl, they have fight, they kiss and make up. The shooting went well and it looks really cute all in all : ') I can't wait to see it fully finished.

I"m feeling so in the christmas mood although I really need to get all my presents bought! (I never know what to get people!) In the mean time here's a cheesy christmas song to tide you over....

Oh the weather outside is frightful....

I love snow! I've always loved snow since I was little, it feels special. For some reason it makes me feel safer too, like a white security blanket. Unfortunately we don't tend to get much snow around here. There was the freaky incident in January that seen us have more snow than ever before but this past week has to take the prize. We've had the astounding moment of waking up and seeing nothing but white flakes falling around us (snow is falling, all around us do do do) and as much as everyone might complain about it I LOVE IT!

Here are a few pictures of my street and back garden to give you a taste of the snow. It probably doesn't look a lot to some of you but for us it's pretty amazing :)

The snow is much deeper now after a couple of more days of snowfall, it's unbelievable!

In keeping with the snowy theme, I went to see White Christmas at the theatre yesterday. It was wonderfully wonderful! I'd never actually seen the original Bing Crosby film so I went in with a completely open mind. I adored the story as simple as it was and the singing, dancing and acting were all absolutely flawless. It really put me in the mood for Christmas!

Here's to wishing for a white Christmas :)

7 Things...

Hello everyone!

First of all I'd like to say a big thank you to Kate for giving me the 'Stylish Blogger Award'. I feel very honoured!!

So here's what it's all about...

  

           The Award's Rules:

Thank the person who gave you the award. 

 Tell 7 facts about yourself.

Give the award to 7 bloggers you just love.

Leave the 7 bloggers a comment telling them they won.

so now I guess it's time to tell you 7 things about me...

1) I am an Audrey Hepburn Fanatic! Audrey is and will always be my idol. She inspires my love of drama, my sense of style and my love of classic movies. If I had to pick only one film that I could watch for the rest of my life it would most certainly either be breakfast at Tiffany's or Sabrina. Also I find her work as a unicef ambassador truly inspiring :) Audrey <3 Now and forever. 

2) I'm a hopeless romantic. It makes no sense considering there is little romance within my life but then again that might explain everything. Whether it's in books or films and most of tales f real life romance it just makes my heart melt. 

3) My family and friends mean the world to me. They make me who I am and I love them utterly and completely. I don't think this one takes much explaining.

4) I'm a book freak. I could literally take books instead of oxygen. I love the escape they provide and the way a good book can completely change your mood or even change your view on the world. The power of Literature astounds me. Writing is the same for me. I love to write stories, mostly of things I'd like to read myself or things I wish would happen. Escapism at it's greatest. 

5)  I'm pretty sure Hollywood has brain washed me into believing in the happy endings their film's provide. It's silly and probably a little dangerous but I do still have faith in a sparkly Hollywood happy ending for my life although I've got the whole film to look forward to before that :) 

6) I was born on Christmas day - people seem to find this interesting. It always feels weird though because it doesn't feel like my birthday because it's CHRISTMAS! Maybe one day it'll fully feel like my birthday but who knows. 

7) 7 is my favourite number in the world. I don't know if it's the whole lucky number seven thing but I think I just like the sound of it. It reminds me of comfort and security. Also I remember 7 being a good age as odd as that sounds.  Also there is 7 Harry Potter books... that's always got to be a plus. 

Hope you enjoyed those random facts!
