5 Things I'm Loving This Week

1. The Winter's Tale

I read this Shakespeare play (of "Exit, pursued by a bear" fame) recently, and went to see a fantastic production, narrated by Sir Jonathan Bate, this week. You can check out my review here.

2. The Quietus Radio's Neil Tennant interview

I listened to a really interesting interview with Neil Tennant this week, from the Quietus Radio podcast, in which he talks about Pet Shop Boys' lyrics. I then went away and listened to all of their music again, obviously. You can find the interview here, if you're interested.

3. Adobe Spark

I recently discovered how to make quote posters using Adobe Spark, and while I'm sure this is old news to everyone else, I am thrilled. So expect to see more in future blog posts.

4. Dogma

I recently rewatched Dogma, because I just suddenly felt in the mood for it, and I'd forgotten how amazing that film is. So funny.

5. Christmas

I'm not completely unbearable about it, but I do love Christmas, and it helps that at Oxford we celebrate Christmas early because our term ends early. So I've found myself doing lots of Christmassy things this week, including having a festive latte, attending two carol services, and having a Christmas dinner. And I've also spent a lot of this week fantasising about things like watching Christmas films, decorating a Christmas tree, and baking stollen.

What are you loving this week?
