It's a Wonderful Life

Oh wow. Me and Laura went to see It's a Wonderful Life at Cineworld tonight. Pretty darn wonderful alright! I didn't expect to like it so much, but I absolutely loved it! My mum and dad were so happy that I was going to watch a decent movie for a change, and I think they were chuffed that I liked it so much. We snuck in hot chocolate in a thermos and some mince pies, just to add to the Christmas spirit!

I found myself getting really involved with George. You get so absorbed in the story of his life and you don't realise just how swept up you are until Clarence shows him how terrible life would be without him. When I watch more recent films I find myself not caring very much about the characters and don't get so involved with the story because it all happens so fast. I think "don't be such a baby, it's not that bad!". But with Wonderful Life you really understand George and it did get a little emotional at the end! Such a, well, wonderful film!

Mum says we're going to watch it again at Christmas *<:]

Let it Snow!

Eeeee! I love snow. It's so much fun and just slightly....magical :D I want to retain a little bit of innocence before turning 21 and a qualified graphic designer which, according to a book on my amazon wishlist, will lead me to loosing my soul. eeep 8|

After that last rather ranty post I've decided to try and be a bit more positive and not look at things from such a negative angle. I used to be such a positive person but everything seems to be really getting to me these days! I think I have too much free time on my hands (damn I wish I got a job for this semester) Luckily, ye olde boss from WHSmith texted the other day and asked if I wanted hours over Christmas, so I've to give him a wee call tomorrow. Things are lookin up!
