Update

Thankfully exams are now a memory of the past. Got my results back and my subjects approved for next year so all is well! Did better than I expected which is always a pleasant surprise! I guess I'm looking forward to next year but at the same time so thankful that it is holidays! The first few weeks have flown past already! Haven't done anything incredibly exciting. Been busy catching up with friends who I haven't seen for a while, shopping, getting ready for the festive season.

Finally had some more time to catch up on football games and actually stay up and watch Chelsea play. Although they are going through a tough time at the moment so its depressing. :( Really hopefully we can get out of our slump soon. The Champions league loss was unfortunate as was the draw with Everton. I really thought that was our moment of turning things around. However the season is far from over and Arsenal don't have a large lead so its not all lost. I'm really nervous about the upcoming game with Tottenham. They are a good team but I am hopeful we can win!

Movie wise I've started on some Christmas movies- Home Alone and Nativity! so far. Nativity! is a great Christmas movie! Lots of fun and the children are absolutely adorable! Will be watching a Colbert Christmas soon too! Can't forget about Love Actually and the Bridget Jone's Movies (I am one of those people that loves both movies.) Also watched The Social Network which I enjoyed but didn't think it was the best movie of the year. Maybe there was too much hype around it by the time I got a chance to see it. Also saw Harry Potter at imax on opening day. It was terrific! Probably my favourite movie of all of them. Lots of sad moments but they did a great job including funny moments too to balance things out. I cannot wait for the next one. Although it really made it feel real that the series is ending. :(

Tv wise I've been trying to catch up on some shows. Castle is the most recent one. Need to get onto catching up on Chuck and watch Downton Abbey and Broadwalk Empire. Been watching Misfits, Outnumbered and Gavin and Stacy as well. Other than that I tend to just always watch BBC News or CNN. I cannot get enough of the news, definitely my favourite channels!

I was going to write about what I've been reading recently but this post is getting ridiculously long.

More posts coming soon!
