The Quest for an Internship... PART TWO.

Hello Hello Hello!!

Like promised I have decided now is the time to let you in on my life! So I believe the last time I really blogged properly, It was towards the beginning of my second year at university! Success; I made it guys; I'm officially done for the year after two weeks that included 12,000 words worth of assignments and a five minute long stop motion animation (which will be the subject of another post very soon!)

I don't suppose many of you remember one of my earlier blog posts (nearly 2 years ago now whoops) about the Quest for the Internship but I have been ever so lucky and as of July this year will be the Production Management Assistant of Walt Disney Studios in Hammersmith, London. 

THATS RIGHT
WALT DISNEY STUDIOS

I can't get over how excited I am! I applied on an off chance in October roughly of 2014, then finally got a phone call whilst I was exceptionally hungover; which i missed from my recruitment lady. I checked my Voicemail and heard the wonderful message 'I'd like to invite you to an interview'. Even hungover with last nights make up on; it was the best news I have ever heard. 

I don't like to sound too cocky, but I have never failed na interview, I like to think that upon meeting me, I am quite confident and charming; the most a girl can be when they are sweating rom every inch of their skin. 

The interview was simple, it required a short presentation in a room with my now employer, whilst you waited they played... Guardians of the Galaxy, Toy Story 3 and Pixar Shorts... with free food! BONUS. 

Anyway, i waited a week and was certain I hadn't got the job, when i received the phone call that I had indeed! i squealed and talk gibberish for a goof 10 minutes on the phone to Leanne and yeah..... I WORK FOR DISNEY. 

It's all very exciting & i will be updating you throughout my internship! 

The quest is over (for now!)

REVIEW: Inbetweeners 2

It was always going to be unlikely that the sequel to the box office smash The Inbetweeners was going to a hit. 


That is what I wish i could say, despite irking me with fundamentally comedy based around mysodgny I cant help but commend the director and those four man boys on the second film following the successful TV show. 

I'm not a fan of sequels. The Lion King 2 let me down, not to mention The Expendables 2 & 3... Then again.. Jaws 2 wasnt THAT bad (i joke!). However altogether they did a very good job. 

The style of filming is what held it together for me. This film was very standalone, it didnt leave open ended and on a whole was much more polished that the first lads holiday nightmare! Instead the character depths were developed whilst still maintaining the british boyish charm(?!) that makes them so appealing to the audience. 

Despite a rocky & slightly rushed beginning Morris & Beesley hols it together with well spaced belly laughs which leave the audience cringing but unable to look away... Alot like Will's attempts to chat up the dithering hippy that is Katie! 

What does this mean for the group as a whole though? Undeniably, They are leaving the land of being inbetweeners anymore. Although we'd love to we cant follow these 4 men through the rest of their life... Personally I hope they leave it there. There is nothing worse than a comedy which has gone on for far too long & is barely scraping the barrell anymore .*cough*american pie *cough* 


There could have been some recognition as too what happened to all of the ladies in the previous film, will & neils lovers are barely mentioned.... And lucy's apparent mental breakdown is bordering on offensive. Despite this they deserve  

4 stars!!!

@THEFILMCELL

                                     
Hey everyone!!! 

It's been a little while... Wait no actually I've updated quite a bit recently and am gradually gaining an audience of you lovely individuals!!! 

However I've had a busy few days ( which I will talk about in my next post!!) yet my phone beeped away at me today with a notification from twitter!

The tweet was from this company who I am going to write about today called THE FILM CELL. These guys are a wicked website which specialise in fancy dress, and fan based merchandise with some proper gems hidden away. 
Admittedly, it's a little pricey, however it is all official merch which if you didn't already know has a huge market behind it due to the success of comic con and other fan based conventions. 

I've had.a wander around their website and cannot fault a single item of there so I thought I'd share my favourite geeky finds with you!! 

1. Star Wars lightsabre BBQ tongs £19.99
Do you need explaining how absolutely awesome this is?!?! I want them in my life because I want to pretend I'm Mace Windu whilst cooking myself some shraaaaamp. 

2. The Hobbit : Official One Ring £44.99

okay it's higher up the end of the budget for me, but it want to have the one ring, I want to whisper my precious whilst glaring at strangers and most importantly I want to go all evil Gladriel on people and then whisper at them that I have passed the test. 

3. Doctor Who Tom Baker 4th Doctor Scarf Replica £44.99
 I actually own one of these. Buy it and have it in your life, it's perfect for winter though does sometimes fall in your food. Which is unfortunate. But totally worth it!!! 

So those are my top 3 buys from there HOWEVER there are thousands of things including Harry potter replicas, Star Wars model and some FANTASTIC fancy dress options, because let's be honest we always stop and want to top everyone when it comes to fancy dress.... Well from chewbacca to your average slutty pirate head this way!!

Get over there and treat yourself this pay day!! 

Lots of love guys

Home for valentines

 quite enjoy valentines day, even if I spend it alone, this year consisted of a mystery card, a Terry's chocolate orange & a Chinese with my dad! My lion is away this year, still I'm 19 I have plenty more valentines days left :) 

The mystery card freaked me a little bit! I've never seen myself and desirable, so I've only had a handful of boyfriends so it basically leaves the options that my mother has most likely sent it to me. however I can't get my head around the writing inside. 

"Who doesn't deserve recognition on valentines day" 

I have no idea what that even means, maybe I'm reading far to much into it, but it had kisses at the end... And the address had my middle name (spelt correctly) but not my postcode!!! Madness. 

Moving on, I'm actually at home at the moment, which is awesome, some kick back time, so I can chill out and do a few things with my dad who is turning old next week at the ripe old age of 51!! Aha! 
I made him a Dorset Apple cake for his birthday... Of which he has already eaten half!! Hopefully I'll be uploading a new YouTube video soon, no idea what on, but I'm half tempted to get some asks on tumblr or even messages on here so people can offer some suggestions. 

Happily I've stuck to my two New Years resolutions this year( I made some in the end!) and I've started reading more and I'm slowly getting Healthy and beginning to lose weight! For anyone whose anytime if there are two books you should read this year, please make it The Fault In Our Stars ( John Green) and Divergent ( Veronica Roth) two books which are being made into what I can already see as being big blockbuster films this year!!!! 

Anyway, this was merely a stop in I'll get back to writing my fanfiction soon hopefully!!!

A brief hello

Howdy! 

God, that really was awful, very doctor-esque but i am never ever saying that again! 

This is really an introduction if nothing else, I used to blog frequently but since starting university (as a film student) and having a part time job i have just been run off of my feet! However, there has been a development! Im a free woman... sort of; basically i quit my job cause it was far too much! 

This is an awful introduction! My name is Georgia, Geeg, Georgia, any variation of the word if you like! I respond to pretty much everything! What can I tell you about myself? hmmm. Ok, I'm 19, a september baby who loves books, television, rock climbing films and just about anything in between! I understand the blogging situation & to advance this and actually hear from some of you lovely people I should give you something on my recommendation! 

1) Book: Pear Shaped; a typically girly book but a really nice insight to modern day relationships and the things that happen. Its realistic & the writing really ends up moving you, with just  the right amount of sexy stuff. 
2) Sherlock... Doctor Who.... QI.... Fawlty Towers.... I could list forever my love of television & i really like something new to add to the collection!
3) Films? Classically, Pulp Fiction will always be dear to me, but so will Ruby Sparks. Its an utterly heartbreaking but beautiful film. It gave me goosebumps! 

I can't really 'prove' or recommend rock climbing, however its one of my new hobbies at university and i absolutely love it. There is no pressure and i have yet to meet an unfriendly climber! I'm the fresher rep of our club at Brunel. 

I suppose really this is self promotional; however i do also write fan fiction, I don't really have many main canons and i often go with what i get bitten by, to me its a creative outlet before i can get my courage together to start making youtube video's again! 

What will my blog be about?
I'm not particularly sure yet! A mixture of reviews, product testing, and most importantly an insight into my life! I'm possibly one of the most caring people you may ever meet; i have time for anyone and everyone & just say hi! i don't bite... not until i know you well enough! I'll put all of my social networking links below so you can see some of my work! 

So Hi!
