What I Ate Wednesday 09.12.2015

Its 7pm and I’m already snuggled in bed, so it’s safe to say that I am so happy that today’s post will be another What  I Ate Wednesday.
I woke up at 5am this morning, and thought I would start off the day with something to drink, as for some reason, my throat felt really dry. I had a normal cup of tea and a mango and lychee green tea, which is delicious. The flavouring of it is quite subtle, light and floral, and it’s just quite nice to have in the morning.
I also wanted to use this opportunity to point out my amazing mug that my sister had bought me.
I then finally made breakfast (with another couple of drinks), which was Weetabix, banana, pecans and almond milk. This is probably one of my favourite breakfast ever, especially in the winter as I just find it quite comforting.
After breakfast, the advent chocolates obviously followed.
And after a few hours of Christmas shopping, my mum treated me to a malteaser reindeer and iced tea. No matter how healthy I’m trying to be, malteasers are always there to trip me up!
Lunch makes me sound quite pretentious today, as I had a spelt and honey roll with avocado and smoked salmon. I absolutely adore this roll, and it’s something that my mum and I usually have a couple times a week.

Dinner plans then changed a bit today, as after I had gone to the doctors, neither my mother nor I could be bothered to cook. As a result, we decided to get Chinese; however, after eating it, I just want to throw up and fall asleep…

Bat Out Of Hell: The Musical Review

Image
It’s no secret that I’m a huge Meatloaf fan. Spending the last twenty years of my life (which is getting worryingly closer to 21) being raised on the likes of Meatloaf, has led to his music, along with Jim Steinman’s lyrics, to symbolise more than words can put into perspective – which could explain why my levels of both excitement and gut-wrenching panic made it to new heights when I was informed I would be seeing Bat Out Of Hell: The Musical. With pre-show nerves, induced by the fear of what was about to happen to the songs that have shaped me into who I am, I entered the Coliseum Theatre, London, and headed straight to the bar. This is when the immersive nature of the show began. With a bottle of Pride of Obsidian in my hand, I took my seat and began reading The Obsidian Times. A small group of actors took to the stage, background acting around a motorbike whilst remaining audience members took to their seat. Then it began – and I was utterly blown away. So much...

'The Band' Musical Review

Image
Take That are probably the biggest boyband from the nineties, shooting to fame with their daring fashion, cheesy dance moves and timeless songs - so it’s no wonder that their new musical, The Band, is excelling in ticket sales, with many fans eager to see how their favourite teenage to modern day tunes are portrayed. In yet another scripting masterpiece from Tim Firth, The Band is not a tale of Take That, but instead, a highly intelligent and emotive story set between two concerts 25 years apart, and a group of five friends, who tragically become four, and the way in which music has shaped their lives. Tim Firth features all the hits of Take That, in ways I did not expect or imagine, and uses the songs as a way to enrich the storyline, as opposed to just cram them in for the sake of it. The show is instantly relatable for music lovers of any music taste and age, embracing the theme of musical idols as well as those of friendship, ageing and loss. Featuring realistic humou...

Hamlet at Almeida Theatre Review *Spoiler Free*

Image
William Shakespeare is one whom I would commonly refer to as the literary equivalent to marmite: you either love his work with a passion or utterly despise it. I guess you could blame the fact that it is commonly force fed down your throat at school reading ‘thou’ after ‘thus’ until the English lesson finally ends – yet, I feel appreciation would grow more if everyone was taken to the theatre to see Shakespeare’s work where it is at its best, just as I was for Hamlet at the Almeida Theatre, London. Image by Miles Aldridge Having only read a couple of pages of the play, and previously seeing an amateur dramatic group’s rendition, my knowledge only stretched to the basic plot, as well as knowing the common line “to be, or not to be”, but due to the number of deaths that many of my peers have told me about, I knew this would be something of interest to me, not to mention the incredible casting that had been achieved. Surrounding the lead protagonist of Prince Hamlet (Played...
