The Age of Adaline

I really cannot wait to see this film, I heard about years ago when Blake Lively was photographed filming it and it slipped my mind until a couple of weeks ago when I watched the trailer. Although it practically tells the whole story in the trailer; she's a beautiful young woman, has a family but is in an accident and some magic happens and she can never age again. So basically she's beautiful the whole film and everyone's like "you're how old!?" I personally think it looks interesting and the reviews so far have been pretty good!

I am a big Gossip Girl fan and I'll admit I am more of a Blair fan but I do love Blake Lively (except why did she call her baby girl James)? She's so beautiful and ethereal and basically a Goddess. But yes, she seems like the perfect fit for this movie and it's a definite must see - even just for all the ages of fashion, exciting! 

Also Lana Del Rey's song 'Life is Beautiful' is in it and I'm a HUGE fan of hers! So that's another bonus, it's basically going to be the film for me to watch... There haven't been any films I've been excited for recently except for maybe the new Avengers film.

Here's the trailer for the film if you are intrigued...

Are you looking forward to seeing this film or any others, I need some suggestions as I haven't really had my interest piqued recently! Comment down below

Cliques-ish

This is quite a random post, but I was on the train to work the other day and I was thinking about my old school and the people there. It gets you thinking about how people behaved, and the way people get treated depending on what 'clique' they're in. I don't think I was really in a clique in the last couple of years at school. But when I first started secondary school I was friends with the "popular" people, but I really didn't fit in and I felt like I was just the funny one. It's not always a great feeling when you have loads of cute/pretty girls around you and your worth is whether people actually laugh at what you say (when you don't even want them to). This post isn't about me though so I digress.

In the first year of school we had a couple of incidents with two girls. One was in the "popular" group and the other was not, she would have been considered in the loser group (I hate saying that, because it doesn't matter now, but at the time that's the way it was). The first girl was out with friends and got hit by a car, and she was really hurt she had to have lots of care and was out of school for a while. The second girl had a lot of medical issues and it was very sad when she had a stroke.

What I find interesting is the reaction of the school, I feel like because the popular girl had that hierarchy top position, everyone wanted to help and wanted to raise money for her. People were fawning over her. But with the second girl, who had a stroke and was not popular - her friends would go around asking for money and trying to raise awareness but no one seemed as interested. This might have just been my perspective, but I found the unevenness of the whole situation odd. At the time I'm sure I cared more about the popular girls well being. I'm sure a lot of people did. Don't get me wrong the girl who had a stroke, still got a lot of attention from adults and teachers, but that is always to be expected. 

When you're at school the most important thing is looks, or who has the coolest phone, or who has the nicest house. But it's important to know that at school everyone is afraid inside that one day they won't be as cool, or one day they'll still be a loser. So it's just important to be yourself and try to be sympathetic of anyone - no matter who they are. Schools may have changed since I was there (this was like 11 years ago, crap I'm old). But I feel this has been a human issue for as long as humans have existed. Both girls are happy and healthy today, but it's so important to treat all these people kindly, because it's the right thing to do.
