Fairy Tales

I want to live in a Fairy Tale.

This may seem weird or naïve, but I really do.

I'm not saying I want to live in a Disney movie (just because I didn't say it doesn't mean it isn't true!), but an actual, real life fairy tale.

I know what you may be thinking. Something along the lines of: "Lou's going crazy, she really believes that fairy tales exist"

And maybe I am a little bit crazy, but I still believe. The same way that some people believe in mermaids or fairies or witches or ghosts, I believe in fairy tales.

I've looked up many definitions of a fairy tale, but this one shows me that they actually do exist:

In less technical contexts, the term is also used to describe something blessed with unusual happiness, as in "fairy tale ending" (a happy ending)or "fairy tale romance"

Who doesn't want unusual happiness?

I guess this stems from my belief in true love.

I suppose most people believe in true love, but for me, it's one of the most important beliefs that I have. If I didn't believe in love, I would not be me.

Because love is the closest thing we have to magic.

So when I think of my fairy tale ending, it involves finding my true love, and having kids. And writing books. Literally, that is all it would take in life to make me unshakably happy. That and cookies, I am obsessed with cookies! (The chocolate chip kind, not normal biscuits as Americans would say!)

Again, this is a really random post, but love is one of my favourite topics and I really, truly believe in fairy tales.

I don't know if I'll ever have my fairy tale ending (which is one of my biggest fears) but that's for another post.

Thank you for reading.

Let me know in the comments, what is your Fairy Tale ending?

Keep Smiling - Lou xx

    This is such a sweet, lovely post! I too dream of living in fairytale - whether that will happen or not I don't know, but what I do know is that happiness won't just pop by one day, you have to go out there and find it, you have to work hard to get where you want to go and if you work hard enough you will succeed. Look at Zoe Sugg (Zoella) for example, she worked so hard to get where she is and now she is living the dream... she has her fairy tale!
    Love this post!

    I'd love to hear more about this fairytale vision :) It's not weird, it's completely understandable actually! And your post has made me realize that being happy can result in such great things, even if they don't involve a prince charming ;) xx

American Psycho | 100 Movies Bucket List

This one was a re-watch. I'd seen this film once before watching it for the Bucket List. My memories of it weren't wholly positive - I didn't love the first watch, and while I didn't hate it, it wasn't a film that I was itching to watch again. Though saying that, I knew that I probably would watch it again eventually, because I knew how much of a classic it was. Like a lot of films I've watched for the Bucket List, I liked it more this time around than I did the first time, though I still didn't love it as much as I wanted to. But that being said, I did really enjoy it. The writing was great and Christian Bale was amazing in the role, as were the supporting actors. For me, though, the most iconic thing about this movie is its soundtrack. The songs used are amazing and fit the movie so well. They're used in such a unique, original way, that it feels like this alone makes the movie a classic. The film is really well made, and even though I don't love i

Snatch | 100 Movies Bucket List

I'd never heard of this film before last year, when I watched it for the first time, so this time around was my second watch. Guy Richie's movies tend to be a bit hit-or-miss for me. This is one of the only ones where I don't have a strong opinion one way or the other. I didn't love the story, it didn't hold my interest the whole way through. But one thing that I absolutely loved was the dialogue. It was smart, quippy and made the film a much more fun watch than the plot itself would suggest. Another thing I absolutely loved was Brad Pitt's performance. This was probably one of my favourite roles of his. He did a great job with the character, and it was really different to everything else I've seen him in. But that being said, all of the performances were great. For me, if I had to guess why this film is considered a classic, it would 100% be because of the script and performances, rather than the film as a whole. It was the script that kept me locked in and

Miller's Girl | Film Review

A creative writing assignment complicates the relationship between a teacher (Martin Freeman) and his student (Jenna Ortega). I heard about this film maybe once and remember being interested in it, but then I never heard anything about it again. So when I saw it was available to rent/buy on Prime Video, I decided to give it a shot.  I don't know what to make of this one. I didn't hate it, but there wasn't a lot to like. The only thing I did like was that Martin Freeman and Jenna Ortega worked really well together and had good chemistry. I'd love to see them work together again, in a film with a better plot and a less weird (platonic) relationship. The characters are written really weirdly. There were many moments when they said things that were just so unbelievable, especially Jenna Ortega's character, Cairo. Another odd aspect of the film was the tone - I could never tell if things were supposed to feel sinister or not because the film couldn't decide how it wa

Book Review #127: The Hawthorne Legacy by Jennifer Lynn Barnes

After the events of 'The Inheritance Games', Avery still doesn't know why Tobias Hawthorne left her his entire fortune. All she knows for sure is that she isn't a Hawthorne. But when she discovers something that suggests she's closer to the Hawthorne family than she ever imagined, Avery, along with the mysterious Hawthorne brothers, try to find the truth once and for all . I reviewed the first book, 'The Inheritance Games', HERE , and said that because I didn't love it, I wasn't really interested in reading the sequels. I picked this book up on the spur of the moment, because while I didn't love the first, I was kind of curious about what came next. I'm so glad I decided to pick this up, because I liked it a lot more than the first one! One of my criticisms the first time around was that I felt Avery was quite juvenile and childish. This time around was entirely different - I really liked being in her head, and she definitely seemed more matu

My Problem With '8 Simple Rules'

Hey Guys x Today's post might come out as more of a rant, which I'm OK with because I haven't ranted about something in a while! Last year, I started watching the show '8 Simple Rules' when it started playing on Comedy Central. It originally came on between 2002 and 2005 but I didn't watch it when it was first on. Anyway, I really got into it. There were only three seasons, so it was over before I wanted it to be. And I loved this show, and I still love it. Comedy Central doesn't play it anymore but if it did I would dive right back into it because I love a good sitcom. However, I have a major gripe with a plotline of the show, that got more prominent in season 2/3. Let me just explain the characters a bit, so you know who I'm taking about in case you never watched it. The show revolves around a family, Paul and Cate Hennessy, and their children Bridget, Kerry and Rory. In the second season, the father in the show died (due
