Ok here we go (behind schedule)

Argh blurghhh  brrr ok. So I’ve been meaning to start this for a while but it seems the world is against me blogging, which is probably a good thing as I’ve never been very good at writing, but now I’ve actually started typing I’m really nervous.
There are two types of blog out there, the “wow this person is kinda cool and clever”  blog and the “that person is such a loser, let’s read their blog for laughs” blog, so I’m really hoping that my blog ends up being the first option, with maybe a bit of the latter thrown in( no one’s perfect).  Also my spelling and punctuation is crap so I apologise but if I can get an A* in English GCSE then you can forgive it also(let me brag about that it's all I have going for me aha). 
My Dad suggested that I should write about something I love and my Mum has been blogging for a while about our family life, which is hilarious, so they have both inspired me to do this. I love films, so that’s what this blog is all about; old, new, good, bad, the films I’m looking forward to seeing etc. I’m going to be reviewing all sorts of movies, and talking about actors, directors blah blah you get the drift.
I go to the cinema, with my boyfriend, Sam, or friends, on average about twice a week, which seems a lot but our local cinema is only £4.99 all day every day, which is especially good on orange Wednesdays! I have seen some truly appalling films in the last few years because I have a crazy cinema addiction.
There’s still something so magical about the cinema going experience; sitting in the dark, surrounded by strangers, you’re completely oblivious to the outside world (unless you’re one of those annoying “I have to check my phone every 5 minute” types) coming out and hours have past, and you kind of forget your surroundings and it’s as if the film has transported you to another place or time. Maybe that’s just me, but as I’ve grown up I’m so relieved to find that when the magic of birthdays and Christmases has faded, the cinema magic still stays the same. This is really embarrassing but Sam always accuses me of whenever we come out of the cinema having this unrealistic expectation of life, and I guess it’s true, real life just isn’t like the films, and I really really wish it was!


So that's a bit about me and why I'm writing this blog. If you want give me any constructive criticism please feel free (in your nicest kindest words). Also if you want to recommend any films for me/readers to watch please do let me know.
