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!

Had coffee with a fellow writer, went to an exhibition on West Africa: Word, Symbol, Song at the British Library.

There was a massive Disney Christmas tree at St Pancras Station.  I thought I'd start with that picture. Implemented Accounting Guru Genius (AGG)  method this morning. I mentioned yesterdays she showed me her way of planning. Well it's kinda like project management critical path and working back but in AGG's way.  Well the results where what I sort of knew but it's official. I do too much. I've got so much on that I have make very slow progress with anything then end up procrastinating. So I really need to learn and get this planning and time management method under my belt. The only reason is that it's kinda the only thing I actually got. When AGG first did it, I was amazed. It was so impressive. I kinda forgot about it but it's coming up to the end of the year, and I've made great progress with some goals and projects but others are still hanging. Anyway after putting in all my hours I realised I only had a certain amount of free time. Not a...

The Scale (Martha's Way 1) by Mika Jolie

  This is one of the of the best romances I've read in a LONG TIME. I loved it! It's brilliant and even writing a review will not give it justice, but I'll try. Just get it because it's that good, positive and uplifting with a good ending. It’s also funny at times. About the story Most women (or me) can all relate to Minka, the main female character, who like most of us, defines herself by her flaws/issues - a few pounds overweight, insecurity about her body, confidence issues (which thanks goodness doesn't stop her from jumping into bed with Jason) and loves her glass of wine with a nice dessert, and likes to feel sorry for herself at times. And she is supposedly in love with an old college crush - the one she thinks that got away (you’ll need to read the book for more details). So we can all relate to her in one way or another, including her stubbornness in clinging to those issues and using them as an excuse not to get on with her life or even make the way...

My Father's Tears and Other Stories by John Updike

Great stories and some really touching. Most were very real so it more a study of human nature and how people grew older. He probably wrote these towards the latter part of his life because the average age of the characters mostly male were about 60 odd years old.
