Games
Keep telling yourself something often enough and pretty soon, your head starts to believe it.
But lying in the dark usually unravels all of the mind's good work in seconds.
Then the heart takes over.
Stuck in my head - "Rocket" by Mae
And it was all that I wanted to be
And so much more 'cause we could soar
No gravity keeping me on the floor
Please don't let me float too high
Fly away with me
You've got just what I need
Will you be my rocket?

Wouldn't Want To Be Fair Game
If words like "CIA", "Bush", "Iraq", "WMD" and "Aluminium pipes" gets more than a raised eyebrow from you, then the movie "Fair Game" just might be your thing.
"Fair Game" is based on the true story and memoir of CIA agent Valerie Plame (Naomi Watts) whose status as an agent was leaked out by Whitehouse officials to the public to discredit her after her husband Joe Wilson (Sean Penn), wrote an article to the New York Times about how the Bush administration manipulated intelligence information they gathered about weapons of mass destruction to launch an invasion on Iraq.
If you're not politically inclined and clued-in on the situation between USA and Iraq, you'll be hard pressed to find this movie enjoyable. It's pretty intense as you follow how Valerie and her husband cope with suddenly being thrown out to the sharks, but don't expect an action-packed spy flick.
Watch if you have some idea about what's going on about the Iraq invasion. Don't watch if you're expecting someone to get shot during the movie.
Anyhoo, I've been scouring pharmacies for a new sunblock replacement because my usual go-to is on its last legs and I'm the most brand un-loyal person in existence. Had the chance to try some sunblock by this new brand that's hit the shelves called Ocean Potion and despite it's high SPF and creamy texture, it doesnt turn my face in to a ball of grease (number one priority for any facial sunblock). They have a pretty extensive sunblock range too for different skin types, so it's worth checking Ocean Potion out if you're the fussy sort.
Many thanks for the movie tickets Ocean Potion :)
