New hobby? Jewellery

68. Make a pair of earrings.


I wanted to make a pair of earrings for a long time but I couldn’t find the time to explore the city and find a shop that sells beads.
I decided that today would be the day.
The shop is fantastic. I’m not saying that I liked every single type of bead but I’m pretty sure that anyone can find something for their own taste.
As soon as I got home I made them. Pretty quickly, actually. And my friend Lucia helped me. 
I think they’re very cute. They don’t look homemade at all.
I’m thinking that making jewellery could be my new hobby. :)

Mockingjay

85. Read 26 books I've never read starting with each letter of the alphabet (in progress - 9/26)



I've finished reading this book for a while but I forgot to post about it. I have to be honest. I was so disappointed. This is the 3rd book of the Hunger Games series. I loved the first book. I loved the second. But this one left me feeling like something was wrong. Some story lines were over explored and others, very important storylines, weren't explored at all. I had a problem with the ending. This will be difficult to explain and not spoil the book to anyone but she ended up with the person that I wanted but the author didn't take the time to explain how it happened.
Maybe it wasn't that terrible but I loved the other books SO much that I thought that Mockingjay would just as awesome!

Btw, the trailer looks awesome. I'm super excited for the movie. It's a shame that it only comes out in March.

11/11

6. Make a wish at 11:11on November 11, 2011.

I did it! I’m not gonna share what the wish was. I’m like Cinderella. I’ll just say that I’d really like it to happen.
At that time I was with a friend in uni and when the alarm clock went on, we just stopped everything. We stood there and thought about our wish. I probably seemed a little silly. Especially because it was raining ahah

Sorry for the late update but I’ve been really busy!

A Dangerous Method Premiere

18. Attend a film festival.





Last night I went to the premiere of “A Dangerous Method” at the Lisboa & Estoril Film Festival. I never thought I’d be able to go to a film festival so soon. The tickets were the same price as regular tickets. I thought it would be a good deal, so I decided to go with my brother.

David Cronenberg, the director, was there. The pictures are terrible but he’s the one on the right. He made a quick intro and left the room right away, that was a shame but it still was pretty cool to be at the same room as someone that famous. He made a remark about the film being accurate but that didn’t mean it was a good movie. He was just trying to be funny and I thought he seemed a very pleasant guy. I wanted to ask for an autograph and a picture with him but I’m quite shy.

I enjoyed the movie very much and I’m really glad that I decided to go. The actors were absolutely fantastic and I loved the cinematographic.
