Off To Vancouver!!

Okay so maybe I'm not going to Vancouver but I went to see off two family members who are going over there for a whole year. The fact that the flight was at 9:15am and we had to be there at 7:15 meant getting up at 5:00. Which is too early to be awake during the holidays,especially seeing as we only have 4 days left until school. I really have nothing else to say because I was really tired today from the early-morning adventure at Gatwick.

Byyyyyyeeeeee

Ally :-P

P.S This is a shockingly short post compared to my rant about City of Bones

Pony Trekking Again!!

So I forgot to mention this in my last post about 20 seconds ago but we went Pony Trekking again. Once more it was in the Brecon Beacons but instead of going to Pentre riding stables we went to Travelog Farm which was very close to Pentre. We did 3 days of riding which included a full day ride. This time I rode a Welsh pony called Merlin and Larry rode a horse called King. While we were there we went back into England to go to Hay-on-Wye which has the largest second-hand bookshop in the world. And a gold postbox.

Once more that's all.

Adios,

Ally ;-P

School?Life?Getting up before 10?+City of Bones review

So in 1 week i'll be going back to school(Nooooooo!!). And because it's Yr 6 I've got my Entrance exams and SATs. But I've also got a week-long trip to Paris and the school musical. and the fact we'll be lording over the rest of the school.YAY!

On a completely separate note on August 21st me and my sister went to see The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones(starring Jamie Campbell Bower and Lily Collins). My sister is in fact seeing it again today with one of her friends. As The Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare are some of my favourite books ever, just under The Infernal Devices by the same author,I'm a little biased but I loved City of Bones. While it did have some plot holes and details from the books were taken out,the director had to miss some things out so the movie wouldn't be 4 hours long! So I don't understand what the critics are moaning about. From the reviews on IMDb multiple people enjoyed it. I quote one such reviewer who gave it nine stars "I'm a 39 year old male who has never read the books". The critics are just idiots mainly.

Right,after that rant I think you can tell I'm quite passionate about these books and movie.But the good news even after the poor reception of City of Bones,City of Ashes(2nd book in the series) will definitely be released in 2014.

So to sum up school soon, City of Bones=great movie and I'm gonna go back to re-reading The Mortal Instruments and watching YouTube.

Adios,

Ally ;-P
