Hello all!
Firstly I want to apologies to the readers of my blog for not having updated it in a long while. I'm getting pretty crap at this.
Work has been chockablock...and feel drained by the time I get home. Today and for two more weeks...I'm officially the boss of my department! There's been a lot to contend with (work wise)...but have managed to see the light at the end of the tunnel! Non-work wise...I've been having extensive dental treatments to finally fix my teeth and have the smile I've always yearned for. It's amazing how something like that can do for your confidence...as I'm already starting to feel and see the difference. It's a costly job though...but worth it in the long run. The best thing is that finally I'm doing something for myself....and no-one else.
I was talking to a friend yesterday and he agreed that the only person who should really benefit from this treatment is me, and to hell what the rest of the world think.
So if you've been thinking about visiting the dentist after a long while...go and do it! Because the longer you leave it...the more severe the pain will be on your wallet...not necessarily your teeth!
So I'm almost back on track again...and should be posting a load more on here. I'm also thinking of going extra techie and am thinking of creating an entertainment news report video (via the aid of the youtube site)...so watch this space for more...
In the meantime...must get back to work..
Thanks for reading...

Movie Releases - This week i recommend..
Hello movie-goers! I've got a unique release for you this week..
Hard Candy. - starring Patrick Wilson, Ellen Page, Sandra Oh, Jennifer Holmes...and directed by David Slade.
Appearances can be deceptive as this story will show..
Smart...charming..teenage girl called Hayley has arranged to meet Jeff, a 30-something fashion photographer, from the internet. But Hayley's looking for a bit of risky fun...and soon she's mixing screwdrivers at Jeff's place and stripping for an impromptu photo shoot. Jeff thinks it's his lucky night...until he passes out. Hayley's got a lot on her mind...like getting Jeff to confess to his penchant for teenage girls...and to what he did to Donna Mauer, a girl who disappeared from Jeff's favourite coffee shop.
When Jeff comes around he finds that he is tied to a chair. If he doesn't cooperate..Hayley has a little surgical procedure in mind to help him along - a procedure she learned from the internet ironically. Simple really...all she needs is an ice-pack and a knife :)
This movie is seen as a battle of the sexes...at its most extreme!
Go see it...
No major blockbusters out this week...so that it from the movie camp for this week :)

Hello strangers!
I'm sorry it's been a long time since I last entered something on my blog, but a lot has gone on in my life...which I will now tell you all about.
I suffered a bit of a health scare a couple of weeks ago, and had a biopsy done on a lump found near my wisdom tooth. Thankfully the results showed that there was no cause for alarm...even though the doctors initially thought it might be - hence the biopsy. So that has been a major stress in my life recently, and have been feeling mentally drained because of it. Now that is out of the way...I can go on and live life to the full.
I've recently started a Diploma in PR - in order to try and become a qualified Publicist. It's what I've always wanted to do,,,so watch this space for more progress on that!
Work has been extremely busy recently...and I've decided to train for a role as a manager. I feel I need to progress in what I do...and therefore I believe I'm ready for the extra responsibility!
Painting...most of you will already know that I love to paint...and will look to do more bespoke painting work. Who knows....maybe turning into a business? The creative juices have recently started flowing again...and feeling extra confident putting brush to canvas! Hopefully soon I will be developing a website to house the business - full details will be revealed on here as and when.
Films - once again I apologise for not providing my delightful recommendations :) I shall be back to my normal self this week...and will mark the return of what I think will do well at the box office!
I'm volunteering to become a steward at this year's Europride London event on 1st July. More volunteers are needed so please please please...if you are attending this year, and fancy giving something back to the cause...go to http://www.pridelondon.org/getinvolved/volunteer.asp to complete a brief registration form. It will be a fun day out, and all eyes will be on London to see if this wonderful city can pull off a spectacular event!
Right...that's my penny's worth...time to get working on my future.. Catch you all again very soon!

Movie Releases - This week i recommend...
Happy end of week to you all!
Hope you've all had a good week? Apologies for not including my recommendations last week, but I didn't really feel passionate about last week's releases. However this week is a different matter, as one of this year's highly anticipated (and controversial) films is released.
The Da Vinci Code - Starring Tom Hanks, Audrey Tautou, Sir Ian McKellen, Alfred Molina, Jürgen Prochnow, Paul Bettany, Jean Reno. Directed by Ron Howard.
Adapted from the hugely successful novel by Dan Brown, 'The Da Vinci Code' sets the scene with
the savage murder of Louvre curator Saunière. In comes Harvard symbology professor Robert Langdon (Hanks), who becomes embroiled in a plot involving a police cryptologist, an albino monk assassin and a 'jet-setting bishop', which could ultimately lead to the discovery of the Holy Grail.
The story also questions the foundations of an ancient religion, and leaves you to make up your own mind as to whether it's true or not.
Love mystery and intrigue? Have a good at watching this :)
And that ends my recommendations for the week. For those in Europe...don't forget that the Eurovision Song Contest is on this Saturday!
Catch you all again very soon!
