Christmas is coming, are you all ready? Me neither.

Every year I promise myself to come up with ideas for presents around October, so that I can buy them all in November and have a lot of time in December to focus on baking cookies and singing carols. Of course it never works and now the only thing I can do is wake up early in the morning and go shopping before everyone does, so that I won't have to spend few hours standing in the queue.  

Another thing I promise myself is to buy something original. Every year I buy books and CDs and even though there's nothing wrong with them (the more books the better!) it would be nice to find something more personal, that says "I'm your daughter/girlfriend/granddaughter and I know you so well I bought you something no one else would ever buy and I know you'll love it". 

Anyway, the most important thing is that you get to spend time with the people you love, so every year I console myself that even though nothing went the way I planned, that's not really what Christmas is about.  

Do you know that next week new Star Wars movie is coming up?

I know it perfectly well as my boyfriend reminds me of it every single day. He's so excited there's nothing else he can talk about right now. I really like it when people have their passions, hobbies, favourite movies...but this is clearly an obsession.

Anyway, I've seen only three Star Wars episodes, but I'm looking forward to the next one as I want to see Harrison Ford on a big screen again.

If you're tired of writing your master thesis, take a break and watch Harrison Ford talk about the movie (what I really want you to see is his answer to the last question -around 3:35, unless you've heard about it already).

"25" album is out!
After listening to "Hello" I was really sceptical, I've listened to the whole album only once to it's hard to make up my mind so soon, but one thing I know for sure - other songs are much better then the single promoting it. If you want to check it out, well, it's possible to find it somewhere on the Internet, but I don't encourage you to download it illegally. On the other hand the album is so expensive I can afford it only if I get it as a present for Christmas, so I had to look it up on the Internet even though I prefer to buy CDs. My favourite songs so far (yes, I've heard it once and I already have my favourites) are "Sweetest devotion", "Send my love" and "I miss you". Enjoy!

Did I miss something, or did Florence and the machine relase a new album? Yes, they did! It's called "how big, how blue, how beautiful" and it was released in may. Good thing I finally realised that.

Few days ago I was in our cafeteria, sipping coffee and pretending to be learning, when I heard "Delilah" and I loved it! I've heard some of her new songs over the past few months but I didn't really pay attention to it, shame on me! I spent last two evenings catching up on her work and I think it's great. She's so full of energy and yet so shy when she's being interviewed. Her voice is so powerful it's hard to believe it's coming from such a slim woman. If you haven't heard it already in Trójka, enjoy :

Did you get to see the new Bond movie?
There are so many diffrent opinions about this film among my friends, I have trouble telling you if it's worth seeing or not. To me it's great. Nothing compares to "Skyfall", which I adore, but still, it's one of the best Bond movies I've seen. (Not that I'm a specialist, I haven't seen all of them)
I don't want to talk about the ending as I don't want you to know exactly what happens, maybe you plan to see it next weekend, but I just want to say that I like it, the whole idea of "closure" ;)

Do you know who won WTA Tournament in Singapour five minutes ago? Yes, our Agnieszka!!!!!!!

I've decided to write this post after the final as I wanted to write about how excited I would be that she won, so apparently I felt what was coming ;)  But seriously, after this everlasting fight just to get to this tournament I thought that there was no way she was gonna get to semis. What is more, after losing two matches in the beginning of the tournament I was pretty sure she won't be able to beat Halep in two sets, not to mention Muguruza...anyway, I'm extremely happy, I spent last two hours jumping on a sofa, screaming and crying, swearing and laughing...what a beautiful match!

I know, Radwańska has a tough character, many people don't like her. I sometimes hate it when she seems mad at everything around her after losing the match, nevertheless you all have to admit that the way she's been playing over the last few years is extraordinary. She may have her worse days, but regardless of her small posture and tiny arms she is able to beat the strongest players (one day she will beat Serena, no doubt about that!).


(forgive me my mistakes, I'm so excited I don't even speak Polish correctly right now)

Adele is back!
I've been waiting for this moment for so long, I can't believe this day has come.
If you don't know what I'm talking about, check out her new single :

To be frank, I have mixed feelings about this song. She looks stunning, her voice sound better than ever, still something's bothering me. Maybe I have to listen to if few more times, or it takes time to like this song, but it's definitely not the same feeling I had when I heard "Rolling in the deep" of "Hometown glory". What is more, I love her down-to-earth attitude, the way she comes up on a stage and talks about how much her feet hurt and how manic it was for her to meet Beyonce, and now there she is, in the middle of a forest, like a model posing for a beauty magazine. I know it's a role she's playing in the video, maybe I exaggerate, and I know you probably hate me already for saying there's anything wrong about Adele, but I'm still waiting for her album (4 weeks and two days left!!!) and I still think she's wonderful.

Anyway, if you miss the "old Adele" as much as I do, here's something for you ;)
