Star Wars: Rebels (finale)

Hi!

I haven't been blogging a lot lately because I've been so ridiculously busy! But here I am again, yay for the universe! 

I have been watching Star Wars: Rebels and I have been dying to see the last episode. I'm so excited about it! Darn that 'to be continued' concept! Anyway, I was enjoying having some free time today (for a change) and suddenly realised I haven't tried the princess Leia hair since I dyed my hair brown. Say what?? So, even though my hair isn't that long, I made the buns and huzzah they are brown like they should be! I also customised my sketch book with the Rebel Alliance logo. 

I am really looking forward to the season finale, but also know I'll be sad when it's over and the long wait for season two begins... That's why-- I got the book! Yes, there is a book that serves as a prequel to the series, which is called 'A New Dawn' and I am going to start reading it tomorrow. It looks very promising! Also, the author wrote a book on Obi-Wan. Might be a good read too. 

If you are already watching Rebels, enjoy the finale! And if you aren't, give it a go! Personally, I prefer it to The Clone Wars. It's not as 'war-based' and really shows a wonderful group of new characters, developing in a very personal way. 

Enjoy, and may the force be with you!

As You Wish

Yaay!

My book arrived! I haven't decided whether I'm going to read it right away, or save it for when I go on a holiday. I really feel like this would be a very nice book to read when away. Thank you sis! xx

The Glorious Getting of Gifts II

He-Lo!

Here is the second part of my gift getting! It's really good stuff that you geeky people will love!

My parents got me this book by Shaun Tan: The Rules of Summer.

It's about two boys (based upon Tan and his older brother) who have certain 'rules' they have to respect. It starts off with ridiculously simple things like "don't leave the back door open" and then evolves into something more complicated and sensitive. As always with Tan's work, some of the drawings are quite dark, but it also has a beautiful heartwarming quality to it. I really HAVE to write more about him and I will, I promise! 

My sister and her husband (oh god, 'husband' makes them sound so old, they're really not) pre-ordered a book for me and I'm excitedly waiting for it to arrive! I have two favourite movies. I already mentioned the first one briefly in a previous post: The Fifth Element. It has adventure, romance, action, humor... Everything I need! Is there another film that embodies all of these qualities? Why yes of course: The Princess Bride! It's soooo romantic. I'm sitting here sighing, just thinking about it. The actor who plays Westley (Cary Elwes) wrote a book now, about the making of this movie. A lot of other actors and crew members pitched in and it should be a really good read! 

Aren't these just superduper gifts? I sure think they are! 

Now let's all take a moment to enjoy Westley's sweet face. 

Love,
