Something I've realised recently is that all you really need in life is things that make you happy. It doesn't matter what or prehaps who this might be, material or otherwise. But you can get by if you have something worth living for.
I always used to think that both people had to need each other, but now I don't agree. As long as a particular person makes you happy, can make you laugh and take your mind of other things for an hour or two - it simply doesn't matter if they feel the same way back. Sure they might be able to walk away from your relationship, whatever form it may be, and not care less. But while they are still there and willing to talk to you make the most of it and just accept it for what it is. Things are always going to change you can't stop that so...
...basically,
surround yourself in happy people or more importantly, people that make you happy.

Avatar
This film received massive attention from the press and movie critics all over the world. Avatar is truly a film which splits the people, there are those who love it and those who think it's a waste of money and time. And I refused to be put into a category until I had seen it; and not being a big lover of 3D movies I decided to just wait until it came out on DVD. Having watched it, I know which section you can put me in. I bloody loved it.
Avatar follows the life of injured ex marine, Jake, and is based in the future where science and technology rules. Having ruined planet Earth, the humans look to the world of 'Pandora' to supply their habits and high demanding lives. Jake believes he has been sent to this world to help the human race in survival - little does he know he will discover a dream world that he prefers to real life and becoming more involved than he ever thought possible. 'Avatars' are part human, part the native species of Pandora and are matched to a human being who can then become the Avatar and control it. Ultimately Avatar is a story of love and morals. But it is so much more too, it makes your hairs stand on end and the graphics will draw you in. You become part of their world. But this dreamworld never promised to be easy, and sacrifices will have to be made. Through finding this world Jake finds himself and will grow far more than he planned.
This film is long, but the time sped by when I was watching it and I would recommend it to anyone who loves creative films. However the plot and characters are not the only reason I love this film. Although at first glance, it looks like it is purely fictional there is a splash of truth in this breathtaking film. Ruining our planet and taking away the lives of natives in the Amazon rain forest with our advancing technology is something that is current, something that is now. This film makes a brave, bold point - that we do need to change how we live, and not destroy Earth because once it's gone you can't get back.
Overnight Avatar has become one of my favourite ever films and is something that will stay with you for a long time after the final scene is over.

Happy New Year.
I don't like to make new years resolutions, but I do like to make a list of things I'd like to do during this year rather than things I want to change like losing weight or whatever. So here are some of them, things will probably drop off and join this list but thats okay because I like to think I can do things when I want to do them. Here goes... (They are in no particular order)
- Get a Job
- Read more books & maybe do the 50 book challenge?
- Pass my GCSE's so that I'm not at all dissapointed when I open the envelope.
- Start 6th Form at Queensbury
- Make an effort to see my friends through all the schoolwork.
- Try and enjoy the last few months of art prep work.
- Learn to take better photos
- Improve any coursework I can, cough english cough.
- Not put up with pointless people just because I don't want to upset someone.
- Do some volenteering work in a Charity or something.
- See Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows part 2!
- Read all the HP books again.
- Be creative with my fashion style, that could be interesting.
- Have the photo shot with my friend Jodie that has been planned for months.
- Learn to cook better and more things.
- Try and do a large amount of my scrapbook this year
- Spend less time on msn when I should be revising or whatever.
- Travel somewhere that I haven't been before.
- Go to camden market in the summer.
- See my grandparents more often.
- Learn to play piano.
- Make more youtube videos this year, either lyrics vlogs or musical.
There's alot of other things I want to complete, do or see this year on just generally in the future but I won't bore you anymore. Have you guys got any aims this year? Let me know in the comments if you have! :)

Btw the new series of Silent Witness started yesterday, I do love it! I know you probably haven't even heard of it but it's worth watching if you like any sort of crime/investigating programs. BBC 1 - 9pm Mondays & Tuesdays. I also hope that your first days back at school, work or college aren't too bad! xx

Hello! So we are fast approaching the end of 2010, and with only two days left of this eventful year I decided to go through all the photos tagged of me on facebook to remind myself of what's happened this year, I also went on this status app which showed all my statuses of this year so that helped jog my memory!
Going through them all made me remember that this year has changed me a lot without me actually realising, hopefully in a good way. I've learnt not to trust people too easily and how to look at things in other peoples perspectives. That sometimes you have to let other people be happy before yourself, and how much my I need my friends when things start to go wrong. I've had my fair share of arguments this year and I'll honestly say half of them probably could have been avoided, but I stand up for what I think is right and nobody can tell me otherwise at the time. That's me I guess. But through these arguments and misunderstandings I have found my true friends and I am thankful for that. 2010 has also brought a ton of amazing memories and all the photos are evidence of that... So many birthdays, parties, days out and sleepovers; there is a lot of them and all of them will stick with me. School has been more important than ever this past year and even more so in 2011. We've been working towards these exams practically all of our lives and now here they are, slowly but surely they are coming and realisation is hitting people in the face... these exams are actually going count for something. But that's for next year. For now I suggest you have a look through your own photos, I hope you find some good memories - they by far win over the not so good ones.
So lastly, thank you for everyone who made this year amazing and even those who didn't, as you make me who I am today. I look forward to 2011 and whatever it brings...
Happy New Year Everyone!
Much Love,
Lauraaaa

Long time no blog!
And to be perfectly honest, I haven't actually been that busy... but I have had ALOT of art preperation for my mock exam in December. Screwing.
Next week is mock week, exam every single day appart from Friday - GAH. And i'm not going to go mad revising because that would only make the panic and pressure worse, and believe me that is already impossibly high. A's and A*'s in ALL subjects?! Thats just wishful thinking from Queensbury to be fair. Cramming it all in the night before will be for me every night next week. For the real ones i'll revise weeks ahead prehaps even a month or two before... but until then i'll have alot of reading to do. Three exams on tuesday? Yay.
Wish me luck, i'll need it.
Now what was I saying about not being busy..?
