5 Must-Watch Chick-Flicks (Part 1)

Hi guys!

  So, I'm more of a science-fiction/fantasy/action film type of girl, but I must say, I always enjoy a bit of romance in them. And there comes a time in every girl's life where she finds herself having a sudden urge to watch a classic chick-flick. Especially if you're a movie enthusiast like me (meaning that you're curious to watch all kinds of movies).

  There is something about chick-flicks that sometimes makes them the best thing to pass the time with. Laughing at the ridiculous jokes, gushing over the most cliche romantic moments and crying at the dramatic plot twists and happy endings. Chick-flicks always manage to bring out my most girly and sentimental side.
  Whether you are a girl who a) enjoys chick-flicks, b) is choosing a movie for a slumber party with her friends or c) needs something to occupy her time with, or even a guy who's trying to satisfy his girlfriend by enduring a movie intended for girls, my series of "Must-Watch Chick-Flicks" is exactly what you've been looking for.


For Part 1 I have gathered the following 5 films:

My December Favourites!

Hi guys!

  As you've noticed, it has taken me a quite a long while to publish this post. To be honest it was both because I had personal matters to attend to and because I just didn't feel like writing it this time. After postponing it for half a month, I began considering to cancel it. However, I decided not to skip the month of December, as it was a relatively good month for me and I had a lot of new favourite things to share with you, which is something that I always enjoy doing.

  So, without further ado, I will now move on to the main topic of this post and start writing about my favourite things from last month.

Favourite Drink:
Hot Chocolate

  I love chocolate in general, but hot chocolate specifically could possibly be one of my favourite things in the whole world. It's delicious, it warms me up and it make me happy during the miserable and cold days of the winter. I can prepare a cup at any time and it's always there to make everything better.

November Movie Favourites!

Hi guys!

So, last month I watched a lot of movies, so I thought that instead of a regular "November Favourites" post, I could instead write one exclusively about movies. I am aware of how late this post has been published, but I was having a bit of trouble with it and therefore hope that you will overlook the delay.

  First of all, let me note, that in my blog posts you will read both the term "film" and the term "movie" because I'm neither from America, nor from England, so, I can use either without restrictions. I can speak both American English and British English fluently, by using the terms of each one respectively, but I am still indecisive as to which form of English to use exclusively (I will go into more detail about this in a future post if you're interested). I'm currently leaning more towards British English, but I am not very used to using the word "film" yet.

with my boyfriend who is taking the photo.)


  Before moving on to the main topic of this post, I must first give huge credit to the writers of Wikipedia for providing an extensive description of the plot for each of the movies which I chose to include here. I've attempted to summarise those descriptions, doing my best to include as few spoilers as possible while also giving enough details to enable you to fully comprehend the main plot of each movie.

  I know that the summaries look pretty long so, in case you are worried that they might reveal too many details about the plot of each movie, I have also included a link to the trailer, whose purpose is to catch your interest with as few information as possible about the movie itself.

My October Favourites!

Hi guys!

  So, the month of October just ended, which means that it's time for another "Monthly Favourites" post!

  I have to admit that it was a bit difficult to decide exactly what to include in this post. A friend/reader told me that she enjoyed my "September Favourites" post a lot, but she hoped that the next one would be a lot longer, with a lot more recommended things for her to check out. As you can imagine I tried my best to pick out as many items as I could think of that were in the center of my attention this month. It's much harder than one would expect... but regardless I think I did a pretty good job writing about things that you could possibly find interesting.



  Before I move on to the main topic, I feel the need to inform you that this post will not include any Halloween-themed items, because unfortunately in my country we don't celebrate Halloween.  I know, it's kind of sad, but at least we have a sort of similar event, called "Apokries", which is a carnival that lasts for a few weeks during February.

So, let's move on to: My October Favourites

My September Favourites!

Hi Guys!

I wanted to publish this post sooner, at least while it was still the month of September (duh..!), but it was quite a difficult task with my anniversary coming up on the 3rd of October. So, as of 3 days ago my boyfriend and I have been together for 3 years (which is insane!). As you can imagine I spent most of the previous week searching for an awesome gift for him and planning our anniversary date. Therefore, the delay is justified. :)

So, for this post I thought I'd try something new and as you already guessed by the title it's a "Monthly Favourites" post. I'm sure you already know what a "Monthly Favourites" post is but in case you don't, it's basically a post where every month you write about the things that you loved or used the most or the things that made an impression on you. I don't know if I'll be posting my "Monthly Favourites" every single month because, I guess, it depends on whether I have a lot of things to write about or not, or if there's something new/cool that I can't wait to show you.

Moving on to:
My September Favourites

Favourite Snack:
Peanut Butter and Chocolate Spread Triple Sand-witch.















  I've been loving this snack lately. Usually when I get hungry during the day, I will look for a snack that involves chocolate. But apart from the sand-witch's chocolate-ey deliciousness, what I love most about it is that it's very quick & easy to make, so if I'm really busy (or really lazy) and I don't want to spend much time preparing something to eat or even thinking about my options, this is my immediate choice. Also, even though I'm not a fan of peanut butter by itself, I find that it goes perfectly with chocolate; it gives it an amazing peanut-ey finish. I would definitely recommend this as a quick go-to snack for busy (or lazy) days.
