Little Miss Rendell

Hello lovelies! Last week I went to the cinema with some friends and watched the new psychological thriller 'The girl on the train'. This is an adaptation from the book written by Paula Hawkins and stars Emily Blunt as the protagonist Rachel Watson. We will start with the performance of Emily Blunt. She portrays an alcoholic who suffers with memory loss after drinking too heavily. She tries to piece together the night a woman went missing in order to give her life purpose. I really liked Emily in this role. Usually I am not a fan of her acting, for example in 'The Huntsman- Winter's War' I found her portrayal very stiff and restricting, but in this role she seemed to flourish and embrace the character. She is really haunting at times and throughout the movie the audience are unsure as to whether they should be rooting for this character or be against her which I think is a result of Emily's edgy portrayal. There are many other supporting characters in this...

Hello Lovelies! This week I thought I'd do a more personal post instead of the general topics. I came across a photo on Facebook recently (shown below) and this is what this post is inspired by. Over the summer I hit my lowest point, even lower than when my brother walked out 4 years ago, it wasn't a great time for me for a number of reasons. Me and my friends, who I'd been friends with for years, grew apart and now we don't speak. This is a natural part of life and there are no bad feelings between us but it was a bit shit at the time. Then my brother reached out to me and said he wanted to speak to me, I was a little nervous to let him in again ( which is understandable if you know our history) but I said that it would be good to build a relationship again. We bumped into each other at our local pub and it was if the last 4 years hadn't happened, it was so nice to have him back. Then a few weeks later he messaged my mum inviting her and my dad round his house...
