After very much a long two weeks of no exams and complete boredom I decided to finally start vlogging, and I know its been 2 weeks so I am very guilty. I underestimated the completed slam of work to start off with as soon as I got back to school. All from university applictions, extended project qualification planning to the music video unit of Media studies. I never thought it would be this hard and yet somewhat fun.

So after a long awaited couple of weeks (sorry), here is my vlog:

I've filmed a couple of things that I may edit this weekend but I am not promising anything but you can count on me producing something soon. Maybe when I come back from China?

Thank you

(P.S- Mychildisadalek is such a cool name. Props to my friend, Kat Who ;))

Dystopian Literature

I know I am ohhhh so late in posting a new blog post so here goes.

I have just recently finished my AS exams which were my Media Studies retake (I was disappointed with a one away from a B grade, but turns out I secured a safe B so that was a mistake), English Literature and my final Drama performance. Now I am as free as a bird - or something.

Being at home, however, for 2 weeks is ever so boring as I have nothing to study or do before the start of my A2 modules. As an avid reader I have decided on getting ahead of my English Literature for next year - Dystopian Literature. The prose texts we will be studying are:

The Handmaids Tale by Margaret Atwood
The Bloody Chamber by Angela Carter

I'm still not sure about the coursework side of things but there is a section that I am particularly looking forward too in which we get to write about our own dystopian literature. So I decided to look at a few before we actually start the course (excited much?). I downloaded a few free copies of some H.G Wells off IBooks -The Time Machine and War of the Worlds- and a sample of Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. I'll let you know how it goes.

Another thing I'm looking forward too is to seeing The Great Gatsby after writing my exam on it a week ago and also growing my eternal love for both Baz Luhrmann and Leonardo Dicaprio. So a review of both the movie and the book which I adore will be going up soon.

I'll guess I will see you soon with maybe a vlog?

We shall see.

I guess this is the start...

Hi,

I should introduce myself. My name is Anne-Marie and I have just turned 17 and plan on using this blog to express my talents, likes and anything I feel like posting. As an aspiring film director I shall hope to share my upcoming projects and ideas here. I also plan on vlogging.

I know vlogging is a bit of a cliche sort of thing but my love of cameras, talking and sharing interests and many of my funny encounters in my world, I think it would be perfect. I do not expect any publicity but this is for me. I promised myself to do something and TADAA...here it is.

Now I just have to get started.

Over and Out,

Anne-Marie
