"ONE THING I AM NEVER GOING TO DO WHEN I GROW UP
Is fall in love, drop out of college, learn to subsist on water and air, have a species named after me, and ruin my life." - Nicole Krauss: The History of Love
Last night, a group of us went to see the new Disney film, 'Tangled', and for that hour and a half or so, I felt like I was five all over again. I loved the songs and the story, which was a very amusing retelling of Rapunzel, and I loved the weird little creatures that don't actually talk (but I can safely say that I didn't love it as much as my housemates and other girls I went with, who danced in their seats and cried at moments). However, it was the perfect dose of classic Disney that I needed to make me smile and remember the fun of childhood. Clearly we were not the only ones who thought this as there were more students (female, of course) in the room than children and so it was a different kind of girls night out that I immensely enjoyed, and it is a film I would recommend to any Disney lovers of any age. :)♥
I haven't been on a night out for over a week which, in student time, feels like forever. My last night out was Tuesday before last (see the picture with a wonderfully decorated Laura above), when we went to a night known as Underground Rebel Bingo which is as it sounds. We all got a little overexcited with the marker pens, and Laura definitely took the brunt of it, although having people play noughts and crosses on my back and scribble "call for hot sex" across my arm left me pretty colourful as well. So, tonight, I am off out with some of the people I was in halls with last year. The nightclub is questionable, but the music is a perfect mix of everything and it is always a good time when there's a big group out. Not to mention the events that will leave us with the opportunity to gossip in the morning...
