#3 Bridesmaids

Okay so if you did not ever see or have heard of this movie, wow.. How did you manage that?! I literally have seen this movie DOZENS of times! Never fails to make me laugh and once again we have the fabulous Rose Byrne. She is brilliant at being an utter bitch while making you laugh. Kristen Wiig is an absolute bae. Being hilarious just comes naturally to her.

For those of you living under a rock, the movie more or less speaks for itself, it's about a wedding and particularly... The bridesmaids! It deals with friendships and the struggles and what not, while being hysterical. The whole cast in general are brilliant and on point. 

SPOILER ALERT: it's a happy ending but what more can you expect with a comedy?! I love the humour throughout, so immature but what more could you want? WATCH IT. 

Run Fat Bitch Run!

Hey guys! 

So I've decided to start a little Run Fat Bitch Run sort of .. series? With it being summer and all training is over and I find myself sitting on the couch ALOT of the time! Although it is almost August already I really want to motivate myself to get running and exercising so that mentally and physically I'm in a good way going into my dreaded Leaving Cert. year. I believe if my mind is in a good place going back to school it will be easier to not crack under any pressure, hopefully anyway! A constant worry of mine is my image, which I know is an issue which the majority of girls, especially teenagers. But, as most you know already, exercising releases endorphins, long story short, basically the endorphins make you happier! So let's get running! 

Day 1: For once I'm not just 'all talk', I've actually put my words into actions! Yesterday I pushed myself to get up and just go for it. So with my sister we got in our running gear and went to run this ring which is nearby my home. I believe it is 2 miles long, but I'll check that properly next time. Not surprisingly, my sister and I were not able to run the full 2 miles! I think we possibly ran a quarter of it at most! But I'm still motivated to keep going and increase the distance I run each time!

By the end of the summer I hope to be able to run the full ring and maybe even further. It may seem like a small challenge but I am incredibly lazy and enjoy taking the easier option ALL the time! 

I've decided to download an app today so I can record my progress, EXCITING! Not really but anyways, the app I downloaded is Nike+ Running. There are plenty of running apps to choose I just picked this one. It appears this app seems to help you prepare for a race but I'll just pretend. 

I'll post how I get on with the next few days at the end of the week! 

PEPPERMAYO

Can we all take a moment to appreciate the wonderful Peppermayo that has been recently been introduced into my life?!

It is my new favourite clothing website to soak up on boring non eventful nights. It is based in Australia (a country I'm obsessed with, yet have never been to). Unfortunately my heart was broken earlier today while I was in the midst of loading my online shopping cart, it turns out us lovely Irish citizens that order from Peppermayo will be charged a customs charge. My friend recently ordered an outfit from the website and was charged an extra €28 customs charge, onto the standard €5 shipping charge. I don't know whether they will always charge you the customs charge. It is quite expensive! But it just gives me another reason to make a trip to Australia very soon ;)

On a brighter note, their style is quite unique and original. I've already done a post on my trip to Longitude, a festival hosted here in Ireland. And I admit I wish I had found the website before I went to the festival because they have some outifts that are perfect for the festival appearance. Above and below are just a few of many outfits I love from their website! Yes they are all the same style playsuit but I love how different the patterns are! So summery! And similar to Australia, I am obsessed with summer too.

I definitely will have to invest some money into a few new additions to my wardrobe soon before the summer ends! A link to the Peppermayo website is just below!

#2 Whiplash

Whiplash is my next movie!

So this time we have Miles Teller (Divergent, That Awkward Moment and The Spectacular Now) an ambitious jazz student and J.K. Simmons (Spider-man series) an abusive instructor. The movie explores the odd relationship formed between teacher and student. Andrew Neiman (Teller) intends to be the best drummer he can be. Fletcher (Simmons) pushes him to the extent of having a public meltdown and attacking Fletcher. 

The two meet again in the future and end up working together, although it is actually Fletcher's attempt at sacrificing Andrew's. He constantly pushes Andrew in order to see has he got what it takes, which in the end we find out he has. 

I must admit it wouldn't be my favourite because I have a slight preference for more light-hearted movies but I do love music based films. The jazz music throughout the movie is thoroughly enjoyable. *Cue JAZZ HANDS*

#1 I Give It a Year

 First movie I'm going to talk about : I Give It a Year.

Written and directed by Dan Mazer. Yes, it is a rom-com. J'adore. Rose Byrne (best known for her roles in Bridesmaids, Bad Neighbours and Insidious) alongside Rafe Spall are a newly wed couple exploring their life being married. Simon Baker and Anna Faris also star in it, as somewhat sideline love interests of the young couple. 

Unfortunately I looked this movie up on Wikipedia and found out the ending before the movie even started (which I won't share) but still enjoyable.

I can't deny I adore Rose Byrne, she is definitely one of my favourite actresses, she is hilarious and Australian (best!). I love the cast altogether, they work well together.

I really enjoyed witnessing the journey the couple take throughout the movie as they try to make their not so 'meant to be' marriage work. It's light-hearted, easy to watch and funny!

Movies Galore!

So it being the summer holidays and all, I'm going to take advantage of my free time and ... watch movies. I have a list of movies to watch that I want to tick off. I'm hoping to chat about the movies I watch so that I'm actually uploading posts on this.

I'm little bit of a movie fanatic. Rom-coms are my favourite, my guilty pleasure. I'm still a child at heart and adore the majority of animated movies. 

I hope to upload a post about a movie at least once a week, we'll see how it goes. ;)
