Daily Writing Journal: Wednesday Film, Movie 0r Boxset Night - Night School



A feel-good comedy,  starring Kevin Hart, Tiffany Haddish. There isn't much to say as the plot is convoluted but if you can lose yourself in the plot and you can get with it you'll enjoy it. A few nice twists with plenty of gags and one-liners from Kevin Hart, Tiffany Haddish and the support cast. I even shed a few tears at the end.

Kevin Hart plays a deluded salesman who thinks he is great but he is really a loser. At some point, he burns down his workplace and ends up with no job. However it turns out,  he is a high school dropout with no GED so he has to go back to school before he can get decent job. Lots of adventures, a few laughs but it is what it is.  I'm not going into because it's convoluted and no real storyline but overall fun to watch with some nice twists to keep the viewer hooked. A few sentimental moments made to make you go aww....

And a nice ending. Unpredictable in a predictable way. Nice and funny, even pushing inspiring if you finish the movie. Well get that far. So yes, worth watching if you can, but don't expect too much. If you have no expectations you'll enjoy it!

Daily Writing Journal: Mo Money Challenge - week 8 which means £8 in the tin!

£8 in coins So I'm on my second week on saving and still not sure. I'm not feeling the pinch per se, but it's hard thinking how am I going to maintain this. So I managed to get a few coins out and gather some change, but at some point I'll really need to organise this. I've put in four fifty pence pieces with come up to two pounds sterling and the rest in pound coins.  Remember the money tin from last week. Well it all went inside that.... How am I feeling? Slightly bored but I still have a long way to go..... Saving money is boring, spending is more interesting.

My London Hood - The Tate Modern

Modern Gallery make you think of the world as it is today. I just wandered around the exhibitions in the Tate modern and  seemed focused on oppression of humanity - focusing on the poverty, wars, sexuality, violence, conflict, the underdog and gritty. This was a picture that captured my imagination because it looked so modern. This is a painting by German artist Christian Schad  called Agosta, the Pigeon-Chested Man, and Rasha, the Black Dove 1929 is a large portrait-orientated oil painting of two funfair performers.  https://www.tate.org.uk/art/artworks/schad-agosta-the-pigeon-chested-man-and-rasha-the-black-dove-l02264  So in typically America-speak when I saw my people, I had to stop and take a picture, therefore homegirl, Rasha, the black dove is headlining my blog. In those days, I guess the only work she could get was as side-freak show but she is very beautiful, modernly so. It also made me think of what happened to all the black people or people of colour during Nazi Germ

Review of January 2018 - lost weight, socialised with others, completed my beta-read, doing my courses.

Hello everyone, Just checking in about my goals and life in general. It's all good. What went well. I took in packed lunches for at least four days a week. This was just hummus, sprouts, grated carrot sandwich. So very vegan.  I also cooked dinner a few times a night rather than eating junk food or takeaway. So a lot healthier. I finally have a social life of sorts. In my last job - it was work, home and see family on weekends. I was so drained and tired so this new job has made such a difference, that I can go out and meet people.  So I go out with some drinking mates once a week. It's a nice evening out of the house and away from social media or the internet. It's mostly small talk but its nice. I'm doing my photoshop course. That is coming along nicely, that picture is from one of my practice sessions. I'm doing a couple of writing courses which are intense. What hasn't gone well. I need to focus on having more routines, and breaking tasks
