I've got my calendars for the year 2012

Every year I like to buy a calendar because I think it's just nice to have a calendar in your room and especially because of the beautiful photos in it. This year I didn't take one calendar but two because I simply couldn't choose between "Gossip Girl" or "Harry Potter". As it was the last movie of Harry Potter this year, I just had to take the calendar from the Deathly Hallows : Part 2 besides the "Gossip Girl" calendar. Last year I had bought a "Gossip Girl" calendar as well and I really like those but this year I bought UK edition calendars and not U.S. versions. I bought them at https://www.calendarclub.co.uk/ and the shipping was really quick! It was shipped the 27th of October and it arrived the 4th of November. The customer service is great as well. Really recommend this website if you like calendars like me and there is much more variety of choice compared to the shops you see in the street (at least where I live). I'm really happy with my calendars, the photos are beautiful and the calendars are quite big when you open them up. And I didn't know this first but when I opened the calendars, I saw that they added the 4 last months of the year 2011 as well so I can hang them up already, that's great.

Here are some photos of my two calendars.

Movies I want to see

There are many movies that I want to see that either recently have been released in the cinemas or that still have to come out. Here is the list.

1) Snow White and the Huntsman (starring Kristen Stewart & Charlize Theron)

A modern version of the Snow White story, with a twist to it. I think Kristen Stewart with her pale skin is well chosen for the role of Snow White. I like the fact that Charlize Theron plays in it, she plays in one of my favourite movies "Sweet November" and I think she is a great actress.







In a twist to the fairy tale, the Huntsman ordered to take Snow White into the woods to be killed winds up becoming her protector and mentor in a quest to vanquish the Evil Queen.

Release date in Belgium: 30 May 2012

2) Mirror Mirror (starring Julia Roberts)

Another version of the Snow White story and one of my favourite actresses Julia Roberts plays the evil queen, can't wait to see her play that role.






An evil queen steals control of a kingdom and an exiled princess enlists the help of seven resourceful rebels to win back her birthright.

Release date in The Netherlands (couldn't find the one from Belgium but I think it will be about the same): 22 March 2012

3) My Week with Marilyn (starring Michelle Williams & Emma Watson)

This movie looks interesting to me because it's about Marilyn Monroe and of course because Emma Watson plays in it, I think she is a great actress but so is Michelle Williams.







Colin Clark, an employee of Sir Laurence Olivier's, documents the tense interaction between Olivier and Marilyn Monroe during production of The Prince and the Showgirl.

Release date in Belgium : 7 March 2012

Two movies that I really liked in October and November

As a big fan of movies I felt like sharing two movies that I saw some time ago, one in October and one in November. The first one is something that I especially recommend to animal lovers and especially if you have a dog. Be warned though, this might bring you tears, at least I got teary from it. I couldn't stay dry with this movie, I can't imagine anyone who would. It's a true story by the way.

Hachiko: A Dog's Story (starring Richard Gere)





This movie is about a man who one night arrives at his train station to walk home and he finds a lost puppy on the train station. There is one problem though, nobody knows from who it is and that's when he decides to take it home. His wife doesn't like it first and really demands him to find the owner of it, his daughter likes it though. As the days pass and he still hasn't find the owner of the dog and his wife sees how much joy he gets from the dog, she decides that it's okay to keep the dog even though there is a person at that moment calling about the dog. She says to that person, sorry but the dog has already been taken, how sweet. The next scene you see the dog all grown up and the two walk everyday to the train station, his owner tells him to go home again but he refuses and waits there all day until his boss comes home from work. His owner is surprised in a good way and is happy to see his dog back again and can't believe he has actually been waiting there all day. They walk home together and this routine continues everyday. In the meanwhile, his daughter is married and when she tells her father that she is pregnant after her mother knows it too, he is over the moon and so happy. But then one day, her father and so the owner of the dog doesn't return home ... From that day on, it becomes sadder and sadder.


I won't tell you more because else you will know everything and that's no fun. I strongly recommend this movie, it's so beautiful and touching and once again reminds people that dogs really are a man's best friend.

If you have watched the movie, tell me, did you cry or not because I can't imagine anyone who wouldn't cry with this movie and what did you think of it? There is statue of Hachiko in Japan by the way, can't believe it really happened this story. If I would ever go to Japan, I would love to see that statue for real. The movie was released in December 2009.

My rating is 9.5/10

Let's talk - Gossip Girl - 5.09 - Rhodes To Perdition


Last time we ended that Blair went to Chuck's appartment and saying that he was good this whole time and Diana left the NY Spectator which leaves Nate to being the editor in chief for NY Spectator just like his grandfather wanted. And Ivy's ex is in town and Ivy is afraid that he will tell everyone who she really is.


WARNING : SPOILERS ALERT!

The episode starts with the Rhodes family preparing for the Studio 54 party in honour of CeCe Rhodes. It has a fun disco theme and everyone is dressed in golden and glitter. 
We see Serena and Max arriving from their date, they have spent 24h in the city that never sleeps. Max suggests he bakes the cake for her grandmother instead of an anonymous baker and Serena can't wait to do it together but Ivy later on prevents them from doing it because he tells Ivy that he might reveal anytime soon who she really is if he doesn't get the cash faster that she promised him. 
Then we have Dan who is continuously on Twitter trying to stop the Dan Humprey haters and he goes on the search for that one account that is called @IHateHumprey (it exists even, haha https://twitter.com/#!/IHateHumphrey and @HumpreyLove as well https://twitter.com/#!/HumphreyLove) and he discovers with a surprise that it's his publicist but she explains him that she only did that because she wants to bring attention to him as his sales were dropping. She says she can delete her account but he tells he has a better idea and together they tweet online, he tweets with @IHateHumprey nd she tweets with @HumphreyLove.

Blair is busy with the wedding invitations and tells Dorota that she still wants to marry the prince Louis but that she only wants to marry the Louis who brought her slipper back from France, the sweet one. Dorota comes with the idea that they maybe did something like the movie Freaky Friday with Chuck, that Chuck is the good one now and Louis the bad one. Blair actually thinks she may be on to something and visits Chuck, she sees him meditating in his appartment and asks him how he did it. He says he just decided to move on. Later on they are together in a therapy session with his therapist and he asks her what she is exactly doing here and she is saying that she just wants to know how Chuck did it. The therapist is asking her if she wants her fiancee to be like Chuck and she says no. She really tries to get the answer from Chuck but she doesn't seem to get an exact answer to her question until he says that on the night of the Spectactor launch, he had left the engagement ring that he bought her on her doorstep of Harry Winston. She leaves with a sad face and goes home.
Nate is telling everyone that things will be different now at NY Spectator and that they will only publish truth on the website but then an employer comes to him and says she has news about the congress man, that his wife is cheating on him and that the congress man is his cousin Tripp. He tells her first to verify it but he also calls Tripp about it before he publishes anything because he wants his cousin to know about it. Tripp thanks him and leaves.
