Film Review: THE AWAKENING.


Went to the cinemas on Tuesday night after a large feast at Chiquito's and to be honest, there aren't that many good films on at the moment. :( We ended up picking like the most random film ever. It isn't a film that I would usually go for as I dislike "old" films...they just don't seem to be my thing. This film was meant to be set in like the 1920s or whatever so yeah, it might not be your thing if you don't like them kind of films.
I guess this film was slightly better than what I had expected and it wasn't as boring as I thought it would be which was goooood. However I did have a slight problem with trying to understand the film/storyline...Everything was so complicated that my friends and I ended leaving the cinema with unanswered questions. The film definitely killed a few of our brain cells! Where did this Robert guy come from? Is the nanny  related to the girl by blood or is she just the girl's dad's "mistress?" Why could the girl see Tom and the others couldn't? HMMMMMM.
There were a few "jumping" moments but it wasn't "scary" scary so I guess those who aren't usually into horror films could watch it too.
Overall I would give this film 2.5/5!

Jeff's in Manchesterrrrrr!

Gosh it is freeeeeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzing! I think I might actually die in the cold...Anyway, let's get back on track...I went to JEFF CHANG'S concert the Thursday before last! :) To be honest, I didn't really know who he was until then...I've heard of him and all that but I've never actually googled him or anything. Probably because he isn't really from my generation and when he first started his singing career I was still in my mummy's tummy. Haha. However, I must admit that he is a really good singer! I love his ballads! The man can definitely sing live! He has the powerrrrr! The concert was good but I do regret not buying one of them massive sticks to wave in the air! Haha! Oh well, there's always next time right? ;)

NOW...time for some pictures!


Had to wait for like more than half an hour for the concert to start! Oh well. :/





I actually took some videos too but unfortunately I can't seem to find them on my camera. :/ These pictures will have to do for now! ;)
Oh, and may I say that I loved Jeff's version of the "Winter Sonata" soundtrack! :D Might actually download that song! (8)


That's it for now peeps! Need to do some "homework!" AU REVOIR.

Christmas is on its way!

For the first time in the past 19 years of my life, I went to the Christmas lights switch on in Manchester with some friends! It was actually pretty good...which took me by surprise! Loved the fireworks! Nicola Roberts and Tinchy Stryder were there too! Loved Tinchy's first performance of the night!

The place was OVERCROWDED. Actually, that's probably an understatement. I didn't think that that many people would turn up but yeah, they did. It was all good...until we bumped into this DISGUSTINGGG woman! Words can't describe how RUDEEEE she was. She had a blonde bob and was around 160cm...fairly slim...and had one cocky face! Haha. At first she started on my friends and I was like :O. One of my mates wanted to film part of the show and so raised her arm and this idiot started saying things like "I can't see anything" blah blah blah. I was like ERRRR WHY DON'T YOU TILT YOUR STUPID HEAD THEN?! My other friend was stood in front of her and started complaining again saying she couldn't see...HELLOOOO THERE ARE LIKE ANOTHER 10000 PEOPLE HERE! YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN'T SEE ANYTHING! She kept on bumping into my other friend who was stood next to me and then OOOSHHH she started on me! I was fumingggggg. I was soooooooooo close to shouting back! She should have been glad that I was in a pretty decent mood so I decided to hold pack! If it was one of them days, she would have got a bigggg punch in the face. JOKES, I'm not violent at all. ;) That woman actually grabbed hold of my coat and tried to push me aside but being the stubborn cow I am, I decided to stay put. I'm sorry but you can't blame others for being taller than you! IF YOU CAN'T SEE, THEN THAT'S YOUR PROBLEM. DO WHAT WE DID AND MOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. There's no use in just standing there and going on and on and on to yourself for hours. She kept on complaining so I turned around to LOOK at her but she didn't make eye contact. I was fumingggg so I took the advantage of being taller than her and put it to use. Yesss, I moved side to side from time to time so that she found it difficult to see and when she went home I tried to push her slightly but that kind of failed as I needed someone else to push me so that it looked as if it was an accident. Seriously though, people like that IDIOT should not be allowed out! That reminds of a song...(8) WHO LET THE DOGS OUT? (8)
She was so rude that she wouldn't even let people walk past her! After the fireworks, a lot of people left and had to squeeze past her and she started shouting. LUNATIC OR WHAT?! She even told her daughters to not let anyone get past them?! As Chino's would say, she's "BIN THAI." There were loads of other people who couldn't see but we didn't hear them complaining! But I guess that just shows how WELL she was brought up. I'd like to see what her kids turn into in the future. NOT.

Gosh, I feel so much better after that long rant. I can't actually tell you how annoyed my friends and I were. I guess I was just unlucky that day.

All in all, it was a good day, got to meet up with my Boings Boings and CHILL after a long-ish day at uni.
Here are some pictures to conclude...:)

ANTI-SOCIAL. :P

Chicken Katsu Curry.

My Boing Boing, Sally. :)

The fireworks were probably the best bit!

Lychee slush! My favourite drink at Try Thai!

That's all for now!
Have a nice Sunday everyone!
