1. I bought The OC Mix 5 a couple of days ago. Interesting new version of the theme song on there, as well as the 'Trey shooting' song, Hide and Seek by Imogen Heap.

2. My favourite films are: (in no particular order)
- The Parent Trap (1998 version)
- Wimbledon
- Tuck Everlasting

- Saved!
- Stepmom
- Practical Magic
- Harry Potter films
- Donnie Darko
- The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants
- The Sixth Sense
- Mean Girls
among others.

This is an OC banner I made. I'm just getting used to doing graphic design stuff.










4. www.the-leaky-cauldron.org is the best Harry Potter site ever!

Hello!
This is my very first blog, so I'll see how it goes! I'm just going to put my thoughts, some cool websites, maybe some pictures, etc. Probably nobody will even see it, but never mind!

Firstly, about me. I am 15 years old, female, and I live in England (not saying where!). I love The OC, Friends, Desperate Housewives, movies, Harry Potter, acting, singing, debating, musicals and playing tennis. Theres not a whole lot I don't like except Chemistry, various horrible vegetables, Little Britain and R&B/Hip Hop music. That's all I can think of right now.

I am what you could call a film buff. I know so much useless trivia stuff concerning movies and actors! My dad is a film director, my mum was a production assistant, my brother is training to be an editor, etc. I'd like to become a casting director or film director when I grow up. Expect a lot of this blog to be about movies!

1. Have seen Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire twice now. Very good! I think the films are getting better each time. The young actors are also improving a lot. Some bits were pretty scary, but they need to be to keep with the books.
On the subject of Harry Potter, a website I've recently found is www.dumbledoreisnotdead.com. It has some excellent HP theories!

2. I am in a school play of Great Expectations and our opening night is in a week's time! Thats not actually very interesting, its just kind of taking over my life at the moment and so I'm thinking about it quite a lot.

3. I don't see why people buy videos anymore. I mean you can get a DVD player for like £30 and DVDs are much better quality, have special features, don't have to be rewound, can be skipped through a lot more easily and take up less space. So why do people still buy videos???

4. Season 3 of The OC is starting on January 15th here in the UK. It's so unfair, it started in the US in September! I have to wait another month and a half!

5. Each year my mum is sent various DVDs to view and vote on for BAFTA (she's a member of BAFTA). The first one that has arrived this year is Kinky Boots. Watched it on Sunday. It was OK, but a little boring.

6. www.dakota-fanning.org is an amazing site about Dakota Fanning. Thousands upon thousands of pictures, and loads of information.

7. www.imdb.com is the best website in the world! It is like my Bible!

That's it for now. If anyone actually reads this, please comment! Even if it's to say mean stuff, but I'd rather you didn't.
