10 Loves #7

1.    It’s been a bit of a month for music hasn’t it? Honourable mentions include the indisputable work of art that is Beyoncé’s LEMONADE, and Chance the Rapper’s amazing new album. I can’t wait to find the time to give James Blake’s latest masterpiece a listen too.

2.    My pin collection…Be jealous. 

 

3.    Obama’s final White House Correspondents’ Dinner speech. Did I mention I’m gonna miss this guy? You can watch him slay here. #NerdProm

4.    Journaling…There’s something about keeping a journal I find so romantic, yet I have never been able to keep one going for a substantial amount of time. Having recently gone through some of my Grandma’s diary, which she’s written in every single day since she was about 7 she reckons, I’ve been inspired to give it another go. 

5.    Shakespeare…this month saw me watch King Lear at the Royal Exchange on the 400^th anniversary of this dude’s death as well as book tickets to see Macbeth at the Globe in July. I’ve been very lucky to have seen loads of different Shakespeare productions, including Hamlet twice, and haven’t seen a bad one yet. You really can’t beat the Bard.

6.    Movies I watched this month included Midnight Special which I highly recommend (I have weird crush on Michael Shannon now) and Lost In Translation for the faffilionth time. 

7.    Ruby Tandoh’s article (which I mentioned in my last post) about what lies beneath the ‘Wellness’ industry.

8.    Donald Trump pretended to be his own publicist and you can listen to it here.

9.    Rudy’s Pizza…I treated myself to some Neapolitan Pizza and loved every second. Me and my friend got a margarita each and shared a garlic bread. It induced some MAJOR flashbacks to the time me and my sister went on a day trip to Naples just to eat at the ‘world’s greatest’ pizza place. No regrets. 

10. Hamilton is coming to London next year and me and my friend didn’t freak out on twitter at all.
