Hi all,
I'm Megan:) I'm 16 years old and am currently studying at Farnborough Sixth Form College. I am pretty new to college, have been there roughly 7 weeks and am still trying to get used to my surroundings! I know that a lot of people find fitting into new places really difficult, and as an outgoing person I didn't expect to struggle in anyway at college, but just like everyone else I was a bit taken by surprise at the massive change! But like any new things in life we have to dive in head first and make the most of the opportunities presented to us, so that is what I am endeavouring to do!
So to introduce myself a bit I'll do the typical favourites lists, hopefully they'll entertain you just a teeny bit:)
I'm a massive film lover, I love going
to the cinema with friends, as well I love doing things like that with my mum, despite me being 16 she refuses to watch anything rated higher than a 12 because she squirms at any language or sex scenes, so we stick to the PG/12's when together!
Of course you can't beat a good movie day in with a big tub of ice cream and
your duvet, especially after a bad day! A few of my favourites would have to be The Notebook, Easy A,
Shawshank Redemption, Romeo and Juliet (The Leo version of course!) The Parent Trap, Die
Another Day and Skyfall (both Bonds), all of the Bourne films, plus all of the
obvious girly chick flicks such as Mean Girls, LOL, She's The Man, Raise Your
Voice, the list is endless and I could literally go on for hours! Can't forget
Chicago though, can't beat a musical film!
So I'm really fickle when it comes to music and change my
tastes all of the time but a few that have stuck with me are All Time Low, You
Me At Six, McFly (my first ever concert!), Fun. Bastille, I'm loving Katy Perry's
new album at the moment, not ashamed to say that I enjoy a bit of One Direction/Justin Bieber every now and then too! Loooove Ellie Goulding, mostly
because she is the cutest thing ever in a beanie:) Alongside Ed Sheeran, Taylor
Swift, Fall Out Boy, Evanescence, Bruno Mars, Gabrielle Aplin, Imagine Dragons,
The Vamps, Macklemore, Passenger
and many more, as I said, very wide range of
music taste!
I'm an English Literature student so naturally I love to
curl up to a good book! Our first AS novel is Tess of the D'Urbervilles and I'm
really enjoying it, the gritty content makes it so much fun to sink your teeth
into! I only really read fiction, and 9 times out of 10 will choose a modern
book for pleasure reading as I obviously have to deal with far less
contemporary literature for college work! So a few of my favourites have been
The Fault In Our Stars and Looking for Alaska, both by John Green, the whole
Hunger Games series by Suzanne Collins. Unashamedly the twilight series by
Stephenie Meyer, of course the Harry Potter collection by the one and only J.K
Rowling, The Last Song by Nicholas Sparks, P.S. I Love You by Cecelia Ahern,
Dead To You by Lisa McMann, Th1rteen R3asons Why by Jay Asher, I loved reading
Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck for GCSE English and of course the works of
Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet being my favourite! I'm always looking for new
stuff to read so any recommendations are greatly appreciated!
Not sure what I'm going to fill this blog with yet, que sera sera! (Just a quick note, explanation marks seem to look like L's with the font I have chosen, I would change the font but I may have fallen in love with it, so for the moment I think I'll just leave it as it is!)
