Alphabet Part 2

E is for... Equality
Racial, sexual and gender equality are things I feel strongly about, it always makes me happy when I see things changing in favour of equality.


F is for... Fundraising
After having benefited from some amazing charities, I started fundraising, and I absolutely love it. There's nothing like the feeling of accomplishment which comes with raising a great amount of money for a worthy cause. 

G is for... Gothic 
I've already said my favourite book is Rebecca, another one of my favourites is The Picture of Dorian Gray, and one of my favourite films is Black Swan. I'm a big fan of the Gothic genre as a whole. It's not just scary or horrific, it's creepy, which is something which takes a lot more work to achieve. 

H is for... Horror Films 
In the same vein as the Gothic, I love horror films, and could easily waste away a day watching them. My favourite subgenre being supernatural, although anything with a clever, gripping storyline is good.

Alphabet Part 1

Okay, so I thought I'd make a start on this blog by going through some of the things I really love. I know it's pretty cheesy, but I thought a good way to do this would be to go through the alphabet, so here is part 1!

A is for... American Horror Story
I started watching this at the beginning of 2014, and was hooked from episode 1. Whilst staying in Bristol, I became obsessed with horror, and this show is basically a 10 hour disturbing postmodern horror film.


B is for... Boots
Never shoes, always boots!


C is for... Coffee 
Every great day begins and ends in good coffee, with a few cups in between. My order's usually a double shot flat white.



D is for... Daphne Du Maurier
Rebecca is my favourite book, and I'm now working through her rest. In literature, I find a great storyline and being well-written are usually mutually exclusive, but DuMaurier has the great ability to encapsulate both in her novels.
