Today I will be talking about the movie Austenland. I personally, am not a Jane Austen fanatic, but I do enjoy the Victorian era. The movie reminded me of a book I once loved called: Confessions of a Jane Austen Addict by Laurie Viera Rigler. Although they are completely different - they have a small similar aspect, which is having our modern world mixed with the Jane Austen era.

I give this movie a 3.5 / 5 rating for a Rom-com because it wasn't that bad - nor was it fantastic and here's why:
- Austenland is about a woman named Jane Hayes whose a Jane Austen fanatic. Realizing that her life is going no where she takes a retreat to Austenland - a world where you can live like the characters of Jane Austen's novels. As she experiences this new world she realizes that living her fantasy may not be as fun as she expected.
First of all, I had to watch this movie twice. The first time I watched it, I didn't really pay attention. It was just there as I was thinking about my own life. Although I recall this movie as being 'meh', as I was cleaning out my hard drive (and had nothing to do), I gave it one more try. In which I do not regret.
I'm not really good at
Hi... so I haven't exactly looked at my blog for a VERY long time and I'm sorry for people who did keep up with it (although I understand if you stopped like... 2 years ago). I joined Tumblr and just completely gave myself up to Tumblr.
I haven't been watching a lot of dramas lately - instead - I've gotten into watching tv shows. However, I am watching 愛上兩個我 (Fall in love with me), 巷弄裡的那家書店 (Lovestore at the corner), and BORDER (Japanese Drama). If anything I can write about those. But I have a feeling I'd like to recap / review tv shows more.
If you like pictures check out my Tumblr. Other than that, I am very sorry to disappoint you. This blog will probably start covering British, Australian, American and Canadian tv shows / a variety of movies and products / stuff I buy. I will not be removing previous posts and recaps (I may even continue them since it's the summer and I'm pretty free) but of course it'd be so late and I don't even know if anyone would read them.
^ This explains why today's post title is - Transition.
So yeah, I am back(?)!
Have a great day! :]
