Pensées

Dear readers, Well, first and as usual (I think you might have get used to it by now lol) I hope you're all OK. I won't be long today, just wanted to write a short article to make you wait until the next one (which you should be in few weeks to probably wish this blog 3!) (although sometimes I say short but I intended to write more^^) anyway, for what I thought I'd add to this blog, I'm won't do it until I find a way (I'm not really good with computers and even if I do it, it will only be a big block of writing. Even if I put space and a good presentation, it won't appear like that. Furthermore, I still can't put some pictures when I could before, nor can I put link for you to follow...so, until I figured out how (which should be in a while) I can't do anything. Technology and me, not there yet lol! :) In the meantime, I recently discover that 20 years ago, a great actress named Audrey Hepburn was leaving us after making some really great movies such as Breakfast at Tiffany's, Roman's Holiday, Paris when it sizzles or Sabrina and many others! She was a great actress and you can't enough of her talent! She was simple and when she played, she really did! She seemed really implicated! I think she left a big space in the cinema business! Not that the actors or actress from today aren't good, they are. But at the time, movies were more made for the pleasure. Today, unfortunately, it happens that it is more about the money than anything else. And the quality of it, is then downsized. Let's it is more about quantity than quality sometimes. Not always, I reassure you. Just an impression I have! So just a little hommage to this great actress and everytime I watch them, (not recently but when I do) she is still great, as if you were watching it for the first time! :) Also, another hommage to a great writer this time(except she is a little more,(well quite) older than Audrey Hebpburn and her book too! Indeed (ot maybe you might have guess to whom I talking too?), 200 years ago, Jane Austen (one my favorite author, don't know what I'd do without her!) was seeing (hope it english enough^^sorry in advance) 'Pride and Prejudice' published!!! Crazy, isn't it? And to say, that this book is still quite popular today! (at least for me lol it is!) really love this book (and the others too of course, not to make anyone jealous! lol On that note, I'm going to stop there and as usual too, take care and see you soon for another article! :) xxx P.s= sorry in advance for any mispelling or mistakes, I try to re-read myself but I still can forget a few things as you might have noticed already, since I've started this blog! :) xxx

Les Misérables (2013)

Dear readers, Hope you're all OK. For me, not always that but I'm getting there. I'm trying not to panic, not to be too stressed but as months will be coming one by one, and so many things to think about...I'll probably be panicking, stressing and thinking a lot! That's me! :) Anyway, I...I'll stay positive as much as I can. In the meantime, I went to see a great movie today! Les Misérables! There has been probably many adaptations and a musical made, which has still a great sucess and I'm quite pleased! I've read the book a look time ago now...and don't completetly remember the story...but still there great actors and the songs are nice to listen...the story stays mostly faithful I think to the book..even though there has been some cuts...otherwise, it's quite nice and once you're plunged into the story, you can't get enough of it...:) Characters,deoors, dialogue (mostly sang) are quite a good mix...:) you have a nice time...! the film is indeed more than two hours but if you really like it, you don't see the time passing by! :) so, when it comes out, go and see it, you won't regret it (I hope lol)! :) I've also started to watch the season 3 of the famous Downtown Abbey! Just begun but still as great as the first two! you can't get enough of it! So, once more, if you didn't see it yet, just buy the dvd and watch it! lol :) (P.S= For what I've mentionned, in my previous article, I'm still thinking about it) Anyway,that will be all for today!Take care and see you soon for another article!xxxx

Winter

Dear readers, Hope you're all alright despite the (bloody)cold present since a few days, which make you envy to stay in...bed!!! (rire) For me, well, nothing much, as my mood is (read the previous article) changing...I'm sometime OK and sometimes less OK. I'm getting there but there is still some work to do and things to resolve...hopefully it should be fine (I really once again hope so!) Otherwise, in the line...of getting my mood better, I'm still reading as much books as possible (which help a lot), drinking warm cup of tea (yeah!!), seeing a few close friends whenever I can and whenever they can( also helps), going to the cinema ( Life of Pi or Populaire are really good if you're interested or if you like actions movies there is Jack Reacher (quite good but let's say I really prefer the books!), and also seeing other members of my family helps too! And I'm getting back to England in a few days...! :) can't believe it as the christmas holidays went quite fast in the end...as always! lol! :) I was also thinking...about something else to add to this blog (which will be 3 years old! next month!) I don't know yet, I keep the idea in mind and will see if I do it or not...! :) sorry for the suspens but I'm still deciding! :) Patience (smile) you will probably see it soon...:) Anyway, good luck for everything...and hope you'll bear the cold, but we can see that winter is really here! :) Sortez les écharpes, les bonnets, les gants, et les manteaux bien chaud! Couvrez-vous bien! :) See you soon for another article, take care, xxx

After

Dear readers, How are you? And of course Happy New Year again! Best wishes! :) Well, I hadn't planned to write before a few weeks but hey...always nice to find a new article, especially when it's the first article of the year (rire)^^ and these past few days haven't been...easy...I'd have hope otherwise but lately despite being home for the christms holidays...well, my mood tend to play russian mountain again...so many things at the same time and I feel lost in the middle of the ocean and don't know what direction to take, so many things to think about...I'm constantly worried between the fact that in a few months now uni will be over and am not really (unless it changed) enthusiastic to do a four year as a postgraduate student...and have to find something to do after...not that I don't have a choice, they are quite wide indeed (smile) anyway, I must have already talked about that in previous article...it more or less the same feeling of being scared...added to that time starts to fly!everything changes (smile) :) I suppose it will be fine (I really hope so!) with time and a lot of reflection and advice! :) Will keep you posted as I go along! there is also other things but won't put them here. Fortunately, there is a few things that always cheers me up such as seeing my friends (which lately is more irregular that anything else, I miss them!!) or watching a movie or reading book, which help keeping my mind of things for a while...or the story I'm currently writing...I might tell you more about it later...chut! will see! I still have to determine a few thingd such as what is the main character's job and which city they are leaving in (probably London) (smile) which will give me more substance, more to write. I have written a few chapters already but without more concreet things/details, it'll still be abstract. And I'd like to develop it more. It's a romantic comedy. But won't tell you more for now. And let your imagination work! (smile) See you soon for another article, hopefully it will be a bit more cheerful. Take care, xxxx

Merry Christmas! :)

Dear readers, First, How are you? Hope that in this great and festive period you are all OK! Sorry, it might be cliché (or not) but I really love christmas!!! Just to be with my family, just to see the christmas tree, just to be more relaxed, just to enjoy evey precious moment, just to open the presents, and everything that goes with the christmas spirit, make me smile and forget everything else. Is it the same for you? I hope so! :) Anyway, just a short article (I don't know if I'll have time before tomorrow) to whish you all a Merry Christmas! Hope you'll have a jolly good time, wherever you are! :) And of course, I was going to annoy you with another subject in relation with books (and characters that I either want to punch in the face (ouh là!^^) or secouer comme des prunes (lol figure of speech^^) I perfectly know that the author does it in purpose but sometimes, I don't know...still want to do it!^^ but I think I'll keep it for later. And also that today, in France, we tend to translate (mostly) everything and sometimes it's not the same (well that's completly normal) but it's different...not good...it's just horrible (even if some progress have been made) but still, I really prefer to hear the music of the language! :) So, now I'll let you to last christmas shopping, last present to wrapped up or any last minute preparation you have to do, unless you have everything under control! lol ;) And once again have Merry Christmas! Take care and see you soon for another article! :) (probably to wish you a Happy New Year this time!:) xxxx

Christmas holiday, here I come!

Dear readers, How are you? Hope you're all OK. I've finally done everything I had to do and feel quite free, as if a weight has been lifted. And I can't wait to go back home for the christmas holidays, I really need to recharge the batteries and ressource myself, this past few weeks (especially the past week) have been quite intense, before starting a new semester and plunging myself again in the Brontë's world (yeah!) or discovering new authors, and writing others stories (yeah again!), continuing my dissertation (stessful but I quite like the subject I've chosen, so it's OK), or thinking about what I'd like to do next year...which still stresses me....but let's put away for a while, shall we? (smile) not that it won't make me stop thinking about it, on the contrary. Nonetheless, for now I'd like to think about christmas and all its magic. being with your family, friends, in a nutshell, with the one you love. Seeing the lights on the christmas tree, Opening the present, eating (too much) festive food...lauging, enjoying every single moment of it :) being in front of the fire, reading a good book, with a warm cup of tea...hum...nothing better I'd say! :) On that note, I wish you all happy holiday and hope you all have a wonderful time with your family and friends! :) see you soon for another article! :) take care, xxx
