Happy Friday I

Happy Friday folks!

This week I've mainly been taking care of my dog since he's been awful poorly.  He's got a growth inside of him and whilst it's small and hasn't grown to a size that will cause him problems - fingers crossed it stays this way - he still takes some sick days.  My family and I can't do anything about the growth as he's 9 years old and our vet advises against it because of his age and ill turns.  It's just about making sure he's comfortable, still has his quality of life and is a happy little doggy.

I took some me time this week to go and see Disney's Inside Out which just came out in the UK.  It wasn't what I was expecting to say the least, I wanted to see more of the emotions and how they function within us and how they control/affect our day to day lives.  I quite liked how the trailer depicted how arguments start particularly with fathers and daughters.  I liked how it gave insight to both sides of the argument and how things get heated to the point of exploding.  But the movie took off pretty quickly with the plot of some of the emotions needing to get back to headquarters, and left the story I was expecting in the wind.  It's a good film but to me it wasn't about the relationship of the young girl and her emotions, but rather the relationships and personalities of the emotions.  As I read in a review at some point, she [Riley] is the setting and the emotions are the characters.  Nonetheless, it is the kind of movie that reaches all areas of viewers emotions and has to be seen at least once by everyone.  Apparently it's became Hollywood's Biggest Box Office debut, taking Titanic's space.

I also finished up my free month of Netflix this week and I'm sad the free-ness is going.  During my free month I indulged in Once Upon A Time - which is an awesome show by the way - a bedtime movie every night and I made a start on Pretty Little Liars.  I've always heard people talking about Netflix and I've simply shrugged my shoulders since I've got Sky+ but I have to say I get it now.  There is something special about Netflix where I look forward to getting into bed and then deciding what I'm watching for the evening.  For now, I'll live without it since I do have Sky+ and get quite a good selection of movies on it, but I will renew my account when Once Upon A Time season 5 starts for sure.  I just wish I'd gotten the chance to try more TV shows like American Horror Story and shows they didn't have available like Scandal.

And tomorrow brings the weekend and I don't have any plans.  I'm actually feeling rather run down and ill, and I've been kept up in bed all snotty.  Pretty picture, right? I'll most likely spend the weekend relaxing, maybe making a start on reading Harry Potter and hopefully I'll feel better by Monday.  I still can't believe today is the last day of July and the end of good weather and summer - at least where I come from.  It's not long until I start college and I'll most likely spend August prepping for that no doubt.  I'm excited about it but the nerves will kick in I bet.
I hope everyone's had a good week and will have a great weekend! Kick it off with having a Happy Friday!!  

My weekend has consisted of relaxing, getting some Krispy Kreme doughnuts and watching Aladdin and some other feel good movies.
