"It'll all be alright in the end...and if it's not...well then it's not yet the end"

"It'll all be alright in the end...and if it's not...well then it's not yet the end" ( The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel).
Isn't that a brilliant statement?
I've had one of those weeks this week. You know the ones where reality comes crashing in and makes the dream look all weak and tired. Me and the two people that I am moving to London with, have started trying to arrange viewings on flats in London, this has not been easy. We managed to book six viewings and out of those six, two have already cancelled. So we are down to four...grr...topped of with the fact that none of the flats are really in the right area, and actually don't look that great, has been conspiring to thoroughly wind me up. Anyway deep breaths. Next week will be the biggest test as this is when we actually go down to London, with the aim to find a flat. Wish us luck.

Anywhoo, I went to see 'The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel' last night with my mum, it was nice. Dev Patel owns a hotel that he advertises to the "Elderly & Beautiful". I think that's great. I've always had quite an odd fascination with age. Ever since being really young I could imagine myself as an older even elderly person. My favourite actors and actresses are always older people, mainly in the over 60's section. One of my guilty pleasures is going to the cinema on my own, especially if I have a day off mid week, and seeing something that is targeted at an older generation, and I'm very often the only twenty something in the entire cinema. It's kind of my thing, one of my secret things.  Anyway, getting back to the film, I loved it's sentiment. Life often feels as though, it has an end point when in truth it doesn't, it carries on through the highs and lows, and you know what... it will all be alright in the end, the trick is knowing where the end is.

The end.

  1. This post is brilliant. I really must see the best exotic marigold hotel.. Must find time to go :) I'll most likely go on my own. One of my secret things too. I actually enjoy going to the cinema alone!
    I really hope flat hunting in London is successful
