New Start.
Right?
I mean thats what they say, or at least, thats what I've heard.
But does anything change?
I mean we're getting another year older, the Earth is still spinning, the Earth is still in trouble, Britain is still in trouble.
People still die.
Lives get worse and lives get better.
So, whats new?
To be honest, I know not everyone will change.
New Years Resolutions are to make people have belief in themselves, belief that yes, things can change.
So with that note, I have actually thought of some resolutions for myself.
1. To quit alcohol.
Now I know that'll be a tough one but I know people have quit aswell. It will benefit me in more ways that one. I'll be physically better in health, I'll be in better shape and fitness, I'll save money, I wont be doing stupid things whilst drunk.
2. To see friends more.
Yes, this is my favourite one. It means I can do alot more fun things, with some more people. Part of the reason for this is that my best friend is leaving to go to Australia for 7 months. So therefore I thought I would see other friends while he is over there.
3. To get a girlfriend.
This I hope to happen at some point soon. Or in the next year at least. I have been single for about 2 years now. And I have decided that things need to change about that.
Anyway, here's hoping I actually keep them and stay true to myself.

Misfits
So,
Series 2 has come to an end.
What an explosive and imaginative series, it really kicked off.
But...
did anyone else think that Episode 7 (the xmas special) was a bit disappointing?
I, personally, hated the fact that they all sold their powers!
I mean whats the point in being a superhero if you're just going to give it up and go back to being normal.
I've always wanted to be extraordinary and to have a superpower. I'd do anything to keep it.
However, Series 3 should be out next year.
Hopefully sooner rather than later.
I hate waiting around for something amazing.
But alas, there are unanswered questions. Annoyingly.
For instance,
what is Curtis going to do now his power was sold to someone else?
and what power will Alisha get? if any?
will Simon gain the power to travel through time?
will there be a mix up, the guy selling the powers gives the Misfits the wrong powers?
as such, they all end up with completely different powers?
hence, future simon was able to travel through time?
If I am to be well and truly honest, I dont want any of that to happen.
Yeah, give Nathan, Kelly and Simon back their powers.
Give Curtis a new one. (Its only fair seeing as his original power has been sold off)
But Alisha should be left without one, so that her and Simons blossoming romance can continue.
Therefore, he will end up becoming the man he's meant to be: Superhoodie.

Dark Xmas
So,
its that time of year again.
Unfortunately Christmas only comes around once a year, which to many of us is a bit of an annoyance.
I feel though, in this current state of affairs the UK is in, we are in for an even darker seasonal period.
And no, I am not talking about the fact that it gets dark at half 4 in the afternoon.
I am talking, simply, about the fact that there are so many problems going wrong with our country at this moment in time.
Take into account the fact that EDL protesters are causing havoc in city centres nationwide.
Also add to that, the misery of rising tuition fees.
Further add the fact that we are still in a recession.
Add in that this time of year is already majorly stressful for many people all over the country.
Someone call an ambulance, I hear someone having a heart attack.
We dont need all of this, especially at a time when people need happiness, especially at a time in the year when joy should be spread.
Not misery.
There's already enough misery out there, we dont need to add to it.
I am not trying to be political, or radical.
I'm just a believer in hope and happiness.

Right, its Halloween again.
Anyone else getting bored of this tradition?
Has anyone ran out of ideas of what to dress up as?
Well this year, I ended up getting some black face paint and making hand-like prints on my shirt and face.
It was messy.
Yet, it was simple and good, very easy to put together.
That was what made it so effective.
Nowadays I tend to go out with my mates and have a drink.
The novelty of Halloween is lost on me.
I eat sweets all the time, so why should getting sweets on Halloween be so different?
It is a simple excuse for shops to make even more money.
However, I am not saying that I dont like the whole event, because its great for kids.
And thats all it ever will be, great for kids.

Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows
Yes, it is here.
There is still some time to wait unfortunately.
The film is due to be released in the UK on the 19th November.
So thankfully, the film franchise is coming to a close.
In preparation for the films release there have been some new film stills posted on the internet.
It will be rated differently compared to the last films, due to the plot being darker and the films picture being darker.
Personally, I think these two flms will be so much better compared to the last 6. It seems more grown up, like a coming of age type of film. From looking at the pictures it shows that Harry Potter himself has grown up.
For instance, there is a lot more romance, for all the characters.
Fingers crossed, this film wont disappoint.

Clarkson. Oh dear.
Yes, first blog about the news I'm afraid, and it appears a Mr Jeremy Clarkson is in trouble once again.
For calling the Ferrari F430 Speciale, "special needs".
Now I have a disabled brother and I can still take this as a joke, but it amazes me that some people take it too far.
It doesnt make sense for charities like the National Autistic Society to be going around releasing press statements like this 'saying it perpetuated "the prejudice and bullying which people with disabilities have to cope with"'.
Now something tells me they've got more to be worried about than a 50year old man calling a car "Speciale Needs".
Surely the money that they spent wasting their time on a press release as such could be better spent actually helping people with Autism?

In the beginning....
there was light.
It rained down from the Heavens and cast a spell upon the world.
This is the beginning. The turning over of a new leaf; a new chapter in the book.
There will be news, reviews, questions posed and questions answered.
Keep up.
