I read the Hunger Games trilogy ๐Ÿ’˜

Image
Dear readers, Hello! How are you ? It's been a long time since I've written my last article. Summer came and went, and I (unfortunately) went back to school. Day 1, I had English language and literature (my favourite subject) with my new teacher, she announced that we would be reading (and analysing) The Hunger Games. I had been meaning to read this book, but I never quite got to it. So, the following week we start chapter 1. I am not exaggerating when I say it was love at first sight (or rather, first page). I was HOOKED. As a good student, I tried to read with the rest of the class, but they were so slow!!!!! So, since I'm only human, I took it home and finished it in a week. I ordered the next book (Catching Fire) and finished it in 4 days. And then finally, I read Mockingjay.  I think it is (tied with Harry Potter) the best book series I have ever read. Anyways, today I'm going to be writing about the first Hunger Games book. Let's gooooooo!  Summary: 16 year ol...

Outfits inspired by TV characters: Pt 1

Image
Hello everyone! How are you? I love making outfits for people so today I was on Pinterest and I saw a bunch of clothes that (according to me) would definitely be worn by a certain Tv character. Well, I've been watching Gilmore Girls, and I decided to do a few outfits inspired by Lorelai Gilmore, and show the photo which inspired me. With out further ado, ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Outfits inspired by TV characters: Pt 1. 1. Red Sweater and blazer: So Lorelai wears her leather blazer very often, and with various different t-shirts, dresses and jumpers. She also wears the colour red very often, particularly in this red turtleneck. I think red looks great on her, and I love the turtleneck-blazer combo, hence this outfit.  I also picked some accessories that Lorelai wears more than once in the series suck as her necklace and handbag. Obviously there is a Luke's coffee cup because she loves coffee! coffee! coffee! 2. Chilton Drop-off: This is a forever iconic outfi...

Things to do this summer ๐ŸŒž๐ŸŒท๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ•ถ

Image
Hi guys ! How's your holiday going? I'm on vacation visiting my grandparents and it tends to get a bit boring here. Not that I don't have a good time: I love seeing them and spending time with them, but entertainment is limited with a 75 year old. So, after seeing this on my friend Cosmas blog (<3) and all over YouTube shorts, I'm doing a bucket list for the summer. I made two lists, one for if you're travelling and one for if you're staying in your city. Obviously some of them are the same, like ice cream or swimming, but I tried to make it as doable as possible. This is pretty different from my usual set of content, which is usually reviews, ratings or lists, but to be honest, I get pretty bored doing those. I'm trying to do stuff that are fun for me on my blog, even if it means that I post wayyyyyy less. Anyways, let's get into our bucket list!!!! If you're travelling: 1. Eat ice cream from a cute cone (ideally fruity ice cream, but it's u...

A few good men (1992)

Image
  Hi guys !  How are you? I'm fine, seeing as it's the end of year, we have more tests than ever. It is what it is. This weekend was pretty boring, we had Chinese food, did homework and read (Anne Frank's diary; it's pretty good). My mum and I really love watching films, we seriously think there should be a Holy Shrine of Movies. Anyways, I love Tom Cruise (amongst MANY others), he's great. So  we're trying to watch as many Tom Cruise films as possible, and I'm going to write about some. We watched a 1992 film called A few good men and I'm gonna write about it today. Let's go! Summary: A young lawyer for the US navy, Daniel Kaffee has been hired to handle a case about an unfortunate murder case in the US navy base in Cuba. Two young soldiers (Dawson and Downey) were accused to have murdered them. Along with his supervisor JoAnne Galloway and collleague Sam Weinberg, they are meant to defend these two boys in court. While further investigating the sit...

Maze Runner

 Hello everyone !  How are you? I'm good. I had my 13th birthday party on Saturday the 20th, and I invited 5 of my friends. My birthday was on the 19th of March, but due to some complications, I couldn't have it then. Anyways, I had it on the 20th of April. It was great! I had some friends over, we did Karaoke, we swam, ate Pizza and watched Maze Runner. And that's what I'm talking about today! So, without further ado, LET'S GOOOO! The Plot: So, there's this boy called Thomas, who finds himself in a mysterious town with a bunch of teenage boys. He's confused because he doesn't remember a thing. None of the other boys do either. They don't know anything about their previous lives, other than their names. They all appeared one at a time, each month for the past 3 years. They were inside a huge maze, and they lived in a village inside it. People had tried millions of ways to get out, they went into the maze, climbed walls, etc. All they had was a packa...

I am now a master thief, you can be one, too! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

  Hello everyone! So, the title to this article is pretty vague, but let me explain. I have a really nice Harry Potter diary, which is closed with a key. Well, I am a very clumsy person (like Nymphadora Tonks) and I stain my clothes, and trip on my shoelaces and bump into trees (yes, this has actually happened). But worst of all, I lose everything, all the time. I have lost the key to this diary, or my other ones, at least 7 times. Well, I lost the key to said diary, and I haven't yet found it. My solution? You'll see ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜œ! So, in case you are not already dead from✨ the suspense ✨ , I will show you, step by step, how to pick a lock, with a hairpin (also known as a bobby pin). I got this idea because I watch way too much Mission Impossible (I'm a huge fan) and Ocean's 11. I know it sounds stupid, but I've tried, and it works! Step 1:  Get your lock and 1 bobby pin.  You probably have a bobby pin at home, so that's all you need ๐Ÿ˜‰. Step 2: Pull the bottom bit of y...

Women's day 2024

   Hello everyone!  How are you? Happy international women's day! I  have recently been feeling very ✨ feminist  ✨ and I have absolutely zero idea why, but I thought this was a good occasion to write about this stuff. I mean, personally, I don't get how it even started, did some man just walk in and say, "I'm in charge now, ladies!" or what? I don't know, I asked google and it did not have an answer. And also why are women considered more delicate? I mean,  women  carry the babies, doesn't that make us stronger? I don't know. Anyways, here are some of my most inspiring women (not ranked).  ๐Ÿ”ฅ= Inspiring      ๐Ÿ”ฅ ๐Ÿ”ฅ= Huge inspiration    ๐Ÿ”ฅ ๐Ÿ”ฅ ๐Ÿ”ฅ= BIGGEST Inspiration  1.  M arie Curie ๐Ÿ”ฅ: This feels like a very nerdy person to say, but it's true. In the 1800s, women were practically owned by men, and then there was this scientist doing things no man ever did, like winning 2 Nobel prizes. And she was the first woman ...

'small' things that should be illegal (part 1)

  Hey everybody !  How are you ? I'm sorry for my absence since Christmas (to my 3 readers, including myself), except for my Wonka page, which I'm not sure has published properly. I wish I had a good reason for not writing, like I was sick or travelling, but honestly, I just couldn't be bothered. A few days ago I experienced something terrible and shocking while I was reading. Okay, not really, but I think it should be illegal. Maybe it is? I'm not sure. Anyways, I decided to make an article talking about somethings that are considered small, but are too annoying to be legal. I actually only have this one, but please tell me if you have some, I need something to write about ๐Ÿ˜….  So, this "mysterious" event is actually pretty simple. My parents took my brother and I to this office place as they needed to fill out some paperwork. I was really bored and was reading "Percy Jackson and the Titan's Curse", which is really good, I totally recommend it. ...

It's starting to look a lot like Christmas ๐ŸŽ„

Image
  Hello & Bonjour, I am extremely ready for Christmas (and presents) but I am stuck in a hot country, like I have mentioned before. I am staying with my grandparents, who don't live in the same country as I do, BUT they live in another hot country. Someone help me, it's too hot to be Christmas๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ. Although, it is nice to be with my family and stuff. I already posted my wish list but I made a few changes. I'll do an article about what I got after Christmas because I actually asked for more stuff than what I wrote ๐Ÿ˜…. Anyways, this article is some Christmas-y music, movies and treats. Let's go!  My Christmas Playlist ✨ 1. Snowman by Sia :  This song has been on YouTube shorts a lot recently so I wanted to add it. It doesn't really help to get you in the Christmas spirit because it does sound a bit depressing but I like it.  2. Underneath the tree by Kelly Clarkson : So, I'm subscribed to this channel called Jasmin and James, who just do some really cool dance...

My Wishlist ๐ŸŽ„

Image
Hi everyone ! How are you? Today I'm going to share my Christmas wishlist with you and I would love if you could tell me a part of yours in the comments. You may think I'm a bit crazy (which I am) for doing this, but even though it is 29 degrees outside I still wanted to make a hot chocolate and turn the fan on to make a winter simulation. And it's delicious ๐Ÿคฃ. I have made up my mind on 3 things I wanted because I was doing a lot of thinking about it and these were the top 3 . Btw- I finished my hot chocolate and the last part was extremely bitter because apparently I don't know how to stir a glass of milk  5. Barbie Movie Poster - I watched this movie this year (see my first post) and I really loved it. I kind of wanted to have a bit of a "poster wall" in my bedroom but so far I only have 1 Harry Potter poster. I thought this would be a nice edition because it's a film that came out this year so it would be a nice way to end 2023. I don't know where...

Happy Halloween ! ๐Ÿ‘ป๐Ÿญ

  Hiya everybody (Cosma๐Ÿ˜‚) !  Happy Halloween ! How are you doing ? It is long since autumn in Paris, but where I live it is pretty hot all year long, and (I never thought I'd say this) I really want it to be gloomy and windy ๐Ÿ˜ญ !!  I want to drink hot chocolate and wrap myself in a cosy blanket, but if I do that here, I will probably melt. Today (as you must know) is Halloween ! A day dedicated to sweets and scary costumes, which sounds a bit like younger me's dreams. Did you know Halloween used to be a Celtic harvest festival called Samhain (Pronounced by the Gaelic as SAH-win) ? Yes, it's true, Halloween originated 2000+ years ago as a religious festival with bonfires and costumes to ward off ghosts. It was held on November 1st because people believed that on this day, souls of the dead would return to their homes, hence the costumes and bonfires. Also, Halloween isn't actually an American festival. The practices were, most likely brought to America by Irish and Scot...

Harry Potter Stuff

Hiya everybody ! I'm sorry I couldn't write for so long because I was sick and had lots of tests and homework and vacation. How are you ? Today I will be writing about a few of my favourite Harry Potter stuff. 1. Character๐Ÿ™‹- Hermione Granger : I feel like this is kind of the obvious answer but it's so true ! She is so intelligent and brave, Harry would have died so many times if Hermione wasn't around. I feel like she shouldn't have ended up with Ron Weasley because he could be rude sometimes but that's just me...  *Too many runner-ups๐Ÿคฃ 2. House๐Ÿ’›- Hufflepuff : Just to be clear, I love people from all the houses but I think generally, I really love Hufflepuff. I relate to it's values and I think it is so underrated. I love Nymphadora Tonks and Newt Scamander so much (You can tell by my name ๐Ÿ˜‚) and I think not enough people appreciate this house as much as they should. Runner-up : Gryffindor 3. Book๐Ÿ•ฎ- Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix : Is it ju...

Update

  Hi everyone ! Yes, I am aware that the only person reading this is Cosma ๐Ÿ™„. Hi Cosma !! After spending a whole month in an airBNB, we are finally moving to our new home ! I will finally get my own room instead of sharing with my younger brother. I will do an article about how I decorate my room once we have all our stuff. I really hope I get some viewers who I aren't my bestfriends soon ! Bye ! Sukriti๐Ÿฆ‹

Rating films that came out this year

    Rating films that came out this year : Hello everybody ! How are you doing ? I am going to be writing about and rating some of the new films that came out in the cinema this year, even though some of them came out a while time ago. I hope this helps you figure out what to watch. 1. The Super Mario bros. movie:   Summary - So, this movie talks about two plumbers, Mario and Luigi. When they were trying to fix a water pipe, they are transported through the pipe into a magical world. When they go through the pipes, Luigi is sent to the villain, Bowser's, lair. Then Mario, who is sent to the land of mushrooms, with the help of Princess Peach, tries to save Luigi and stop Bowser from taking over the magical land. My Opinion - I think this movie was pretty good although it did get a bit boring at times. The storyline wasn't super interesting and I didn't feel the urge to see what happened next. Other than this, there were many funny scenes but nothing super special. This fi...
