So after having a quick rifle through past blog entries, it seems to be quite customary for me, when doing essays at home, to post some songs which unintentionally form a work playlist for that period. Over Christmas it was Hurts and One Republic. This time, I can already tell it's going to be The All American Reject's latest offering, 'Kids in the Street'. I am a maaaaassive fan, and while it is by far my least favourite of their albums, it's still got some gems on there.
'Beekeeper's Daughter'
'Heartbeat Slowing Down'
I predict that a medley of AAR tunes will form the basis of my playlist. My Hurts love is still going strong, so they'll be in there too, along with Carrie Underwood and Lady Antebellum from my jaunt into country music.
'Cowboy Casanova'
'We Owned the Night'
Films-wise, I've been spoilt. From re-watching olders ones I loved which have recently made it onto Sky Movies (No Strings Attached, Love and Other Drugs, Water for Elephants) to films I never got around to seeing (Thor, American Beauty) and new releases in the cinema (hello The Hunger Games ♥ SO glad the film was an accurate representation of the book!).
Quick shout out to Chris Hemsworth for having a body that literally made me and my sister gasp, at the sheer size of his muscles. Which made our brother roll his eyes and sprout about how ridiculous we are. [It's probably true...]
Had a lovely meal to end the term with the housemates, and it's been great to catch up with a bunch of my friends back home as well. Spent yesterday with my grandparents, having family time. I'd missed them way too much. We're all still at the 'spontaneous hugs' stage, even though I've been back over a week, we've all missed each other so much. Even my usually anti-social older brother!
As for my visitor at the end of last term... lets just say they've got a lot of making up to do.
So for now, I'm grudgingly making a start on my Easter work, although as it's Easter Sunday I'm taking it easy and just doing reading/research. 11,500 words to go, bring it on! But first, chocolate and Northern Lights by Philip Pullman.... it's research, honest! xo.
