Un peu de douceur-2 (or 3?)

Dear readers, As usual, I hope you're Ok despite the 'great' weather we're having lately, if not the snow, rain is now here! (well, we can't complain too much lol as I think we quite need water) but sometimes I've to say, I quite like the warmth of the sun, don't you? :) Once again I'd like to put some picture but for now I can't. And until I've figured it (which should takes some time, unless you have an idea of how to do it? But it's OK. For now, I've so many things in my mind, that i'm trying not to panic!! Indeed, we're already in February...and as you know already times fly by!! :) well, I'm not going to annoy with you that too much...it's more or less the same things as before...:) mood changes a lot but for now it's stable...Anyway, er...where was I? Yes, today...just a short article. And just a question: How do you know...the book you're reading is (really) good? 1) Of course, you can't stop reading it, you have to know the end of the story and what's going to happen next. 2) you like/love the author and enjoy reading her or his books. And 3) (or maybe there is other reasons) your cup of tea (or coffee) is...cold (lol) because you've simply forgotten it! juste l'idée du jour! :) There is also something I'd like to share with you. A subject, I haven't (or at least not often) talked about, simply because it's annoys me! in the sense where- sorry- let's start again-in a few days (or weeks?) well soon, it'll be Valentine's day! Well, sorry to disappoint you (rire) but I really don't like it! it's too superficial and...more commercial than anything! it's just too much! Every year, all the shops put too many things in their vitrine...pushing you to buy this or that...and...it's annoying!!! always the same blablah between flowers (well OK...^^), chocolate, champagne, postcards (well, OK too^^) and many other things that probably exist and that you can easily found...it's just a bit too much for me(once again). You're of course welcome to like it, it's just my opinion. I mean you get the idea (smile)! On that note, see you soon for another article (which should be next week when this blog will be 3! already!) take care! Have a good week! :) xxx

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
