I couldn't come up with anything good to write about... so here is a video of cute puppies

As the title suggests I am lacking ideas, I have tried several ideas but none of them seemed to work so I decided to check instagram where I found this video.


Puppies in Disney costumes accompanied by epic music, what more could you ask for? Ok, maybe a proper blog post about something meaningful again I apologise once I come up with an idea I'll write one.

This video was made by Oh my Disney, Disney's blog which features news, quizzes, gifs, videos and lots of Disney related stuff that I was frequently on while I was supposed to be studying.

This video also reminds me of some of the videos done by The Pet Collective who use cats to recreate Disney and other movies and Tv shows while little kids tell the stories.
Here is their Tangled video.
So I hope you enjoyed this (pointless) post on Disney and cute animals.
Hope you have a nice day,

Inspiring songs

First of all I'm so sorry for not posting in two weeks i have just finished my final assessments for this year and have had so many commitments during the last week so haven't had the chance to post.
I have not posted in two weeks! This is just a short post that I had the idea for while listening to Unwritten ( my current favourite song) and realised how most of my favourite songs have inspiring lyrics.



5. Let it go
If you haven't heard of this song by now you must have been living under a rock for the last year( like my dad who heard it for the first time last week) and I know what your thinking Frozen is sooo old and annoying now but apart from having a tune that constantly keeps getting stuck in your head and constantly reminds you of building ice castles.It has a strong message about being true to yourself no matter what other people think and letting go of the past. I'm not obsessed with Frozen but somehow it just keeps making its way into my posts.

4. The climb


Another slightly Disney song which is from the forgotten days of Miley Cyrus when she was best known for playing a teen pop star leading a double live from the movie about being down to Earth and remembering where you come from. This song for some reason always reminds me of assessments and how sometimes I do really well in some subjects and others not so well but is about the broader theme of resilience using a mountain analogy (ok now it sounds like I'm analysing the songs) and that lifes a climb... but the view is great.




3. Roar

I was personally disappointed when Roar didn't win song of the year last year because again this is one of my favorite songs despite the fact that it reminds me of the plague (because my cousin did a parody for school).

There is so much meaning and techniques used in this song ( when I looked it up I found worksheets on analyzing its lyrics) but on a simple level it is simple, relatable and powerful, not to mention catchy.




2. Brave

Earlier this year I was obsessed with this song and would listen to it on repeat several times a day. Why? I think it was because at the moment I always seem to feel insecure when I'm with people about not saying what they want to hear when I listen to this song I feel like it is speaking directly to me.




1. Unwritten

This is my favourite song at the song at the moment I absolutely love it and I don't know why. I first heard it two years ago when they played it at my school for the year 12's final day. It takes a different perspective on how your future is unwritten and you are undefined even by the actions you have done in the past. 


So that's my list! I will try to be posting as often as possible from now on especially since I finish school at the end of next week.

Minion movie trailer

First of all I'm soooo sorry for not posting in a long time I have been really busy with assignments and tests so have neglected my blog lately. On the bright side only 4 more weeks of school left for this year.


As I mentioned in my earlier post The top 5 cutest and funniest non-human sidekicks I love minions! So, I was more than excited to hear that the adorable creatures are getting there own spin-off movie in less than a year!

Here is the official trailer that was released a couple of days ago.
The official synopsis reads as follows:
The Minions, breakout stars from "Despicable Me," are presented in an origin story that showcases their unpredictable personality and physicality, and pairs them with equally memorable human characters. As it turns out, Minions have existed since the beginning of time. They have evolved from single (yellow) cell organisms into the familiar beings we know, and they live for a collective purpose: to seek out and serve the most despicable master they can find. Academy Award winner Sandra Bullock will lead the voice cast of the human characters as Scarlett Overkill, the world's reigning super-villain of the 1960s.

I normally don't get obsessed over upcoming movies but I really can't wait to see how this movie turns out. Part of me is worried about what will happen if it doesn't live up to expectation, but if it is done right this will strengthen the minion brand and fan-base. I'm interested to find out how much of the movie is made up of showing the minions with their various 'masters' in the trailer and their time spent in Antartica being 'depressed' which is completely ironic because the last thing anyone thinks of when they think of minions is depression.


From the trailer the main minions identified are Kevin, Stuart and Bob who are off on an adventure to find the biggest baddest villan to serve that leads them to New York in the year 1968 which the trailer points out is 42 years B.G which will ultimately take them to Scarlet Overkill ( Sandra Bullock) who unfortunately did not feature in the trailer and whose character design has yet to be released.

So in conclusion I'm really excited for this movie, unfortunately it doesn't get released until boxing day next year here in Australia however hopefully it will be worth the wait.

What's a movie that you just can't wait to be released? Feel free to comment below
