Hey All,
I haven't written in a while because I was writing exams. I am so glad to be on holiday as I really need a break to clear my mind and to find joy in the ordinary and to rediscover. I wrote 14 exams and it was very stressful but I'm just glad it is over now.
I started my holiday on Friday the 27th, sadly with a regret hanging over me. Never desert your friends. You never know the opportunities that may occur.
Anyway, I am glad that I have finally made a start on my reading list. I just finished reading To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper lee, which I thought was a great read. It was especially interesting as I have just been studying The Great Depression at school and that was one of the themes in the book. Today I started reading The Catcher in the Rye by J.D Salinger and, to be honest, it hasn't amounted to much yet. Sometimes the end is worth waiting for.
I just watched The Perks of being a Wallflower, which was amazing, inspiring and reaches right into the soul of a teenager, a writer and a person with a strong emotional imagination. Not to mention, it starred Emma Watson in it. It was very different but I like different, so that was really great. I also watched The Notebook, which was on my list, as it is supposedly one of the most romantic films of all time. I thought the storyline and the actors were great.
Till next time,
A.V.M.Dwyer
