Evan Almighty

September 30th, 2007 · 2 Comments

The most interesting thing about this film for me was watching Lauren Graham in a different role. I have been watching ‘The Gilmour Girls’ this year on DVD. I love the series and especially Lorelai’s character. So to see a different character, who wasn’t as strong and spunky as Lorelai, was kind of freaky.

Solitude

September 27th, 2007 · No Comments

I have had ridiculously late nights all week. In my delicious solitude I have kept no track of time and have eaten when I feel hungry. I found myself going to bed after 3.00am most nights. I haven’t lived like this for years. I am generally in bed before 10.00 most nights. I’m not sure […]

Doing the Deb

September 21st, 2007 · No Comments

For months our year 11’s have been preparing for the debutante ball by learning to dance, handing over large sums of money and fantasizing about what ‘the big night’ would bring.

There is so much accuracy in this article that I would recommend you to read it and reflect on it.A colleague gave it to me for a read and as soon […]
