okay? okay.

i am so so looking forward to see this movie.
i read the book three times and this beautiful, sad story didn't cease to bewitch me.

the fault in a stars is a book by john green and it tells the story of hazel grace lancaster,
who is a sixteen year old cancer survivor.
i think cancer is such a big issue in our society which affects so many people and john green does a great job by telling this story of a girl who has cancer, but also of a girl who falls in love, who likes to read, who gets annoyed at her parents - just a normal teenager.

i think when thinking about cancer, especially children with cancer, one can feel very overwhelmed and helpless.
i therefore want to share about what my friend siân is doing: she decided to chop off her beautiful long hair and donate it to the princess trust which makes wigs for young cancer sufferers and she is fundraising money for yorkshire cancer research. you can find out more and donate here: https://www.justgiving.com/Sianhair

to say it in john green's words: let's decrease world suck. and don't forget to be awesome.

freedom is a privilege

on the weekend me and hannah went to the cinema and we watched "django unchained".
it's not exactly a feel good movie but definitely one that stays with you for a while. quentin tarantino is unsparing in his display of violence and atrocity that was exerted by white people during the period of slavery in america. but his peculiar wit and storytelling make it bearable. it is really thought provoking and illustrates very clearly how wrong slavery and also discrimination is.
it certainly is a movie worth watching.

here is the trailer:



the soundtrack is really good too.

Highlight of the day

This evening I spent time with my lovely friend Larissa from As for me. She is a great friend who I love to talk to and who is so inspiring in everything she does.

And she's really pretty.
We watched "Letters to God" on DVD (a little too cheesy for me but a great message), ate ice cream and talked.

She showed me this site where you can edit your pictures and I'm hooked!
