Just recently I have been absorbed into the world of literature and films.
I just cannot get through the day without picking up a copy of my lastest escape route and reading till I feel peace and tranquility feel it's way into the recesses of my mind- but sometimes I read for longer till my eyes droop and I sleep, my mind still engaged in the words of fiction.
See even my wiriting is changing because of the books I read!!!
Over the last two weeks I have had tonsilitis which is a pain in the bum- especially now because with all my assesments coming up I need to be healthy, not zapped to the core, so the only thing I can comprehend doing in a day is sleeping!!!
But any way over those two weeks I managed a day trip to visit Plymouth uni with my gorgeous friend Roma, but apart from that lounged in bed or on the sofa!!
(I also somehow managed to lose 4 lbs in this week!! How I will never fathom but YAY!!)
((And going back to college made me put on a pound!! I did more this week than last week!!))
ANYWAY
All this time i was watching movies and reading books.
My reading list for those weeks has come back looking like this-
Stolen by Lucy Christopher
P.S I love you by Cecelia Ahern
Pray for Silence by Linda Castillo
Small Wars by Sadie Jones
Crazy in Love by Chrissie Manby
And...
New Moan by Stephfordy Mayo
And then the movies I watched- and those which I haven't quite got all the way through!!
There is Kick Ass which has some of the best scenes I have even seen- think the scene near the end with the white light, pure genius!!
The Lovely Bones which brought me to tears, which isn't hard sometimes, but in this movie I scared myself by never wanting an antagonist to die so badly, and there to be retribution for what has been done!!
Inception- Brilliant. Containing one of the best fight scenes I have seen in a while.
Nine which was stunning but just left me feeling a bit deflated, I felt like it needed more!
Princess and the frog, which I found charming and funny at times but i do feel that disney has lost the magic that made DISNEY!! and all those movies classics! I think thats why i waited this long to watch it too!!
An Education which is a really good movie but I was very shocked at some of what waas used- if you know it only one word- Banana!!!
So that has been my life over the last two weeks.
Apart from one very messy night last week where, well lets just say it got messy!!

Lifetimes of Miss Maymi 1.6
I haven't had much time for my blog, the last time I was on here I was 19 years old.
I am now 20.
Thats a big number to me, a whole new decade, but a whole new bucket full of disappointment.
I fell like I have less friends, or have lost a point with some, I have made some stronger connections, but I've drifted I know, but I just don't know how to fix it, or maybbe I don't want to.
This saddens me, because it shows that life is still passing me by.
All the people I am in college with have life plans- I don't.
4 years of college
and I am still stuck in a rut.
There is only one thing I want to do- stage management.
I thought my desire for learning and a career was in acting, but I don't want that any more.
I did a backstage tour at the Drury Lane theatre in London a while back.
It was such an amazing chance, and while there I stood on the edge of the stage looking out across the red seating taking in the vastness of the space infront of me.
The amazing Jonathan Goodwin said to me "wonderful isn't it"
My answer was "I can see myself looking out in 5 years time"
On reflection, was I telling him what I thought he wanted to hear, what I wanted to believe??
I actually feel depressed at college when they talk about going to uni and going to auditions, I don't want to do this, but they are all passing me by, growing as human beings. While I could be perfectly happy staying at McDonalds, and living at home!!

Scared of change?
I don't know what I want and at 20 this scares me!!
It's only 11 months till I turn 21, and will anything change by then or will life just keep passing me by??
On a good note
I am trying to change this- I have recently decided to apply for work experience at the west end shows- fingers crossed this happens soon.
I also have my CV all written up ready for the world of work in May.
I will make a difference!!
