We've had a blog refresh! yay! so pretty! I'm still figuring this blog design thing out so any tips would be great!

So first a little update on my life. Blogging has been put on hold while i finish The Vampire Diaries (i'm up to season 5 so only another 3 to go!) I have so many movies piling up, this weekend is Easter long weekend so hopefully i'll fit some in then and i'm throwing my friend Georgia a slumber/movie marathon party next weekend so i'll tick some off then to! Rhys is currently watching Vikings and we hadn't really watched a show or a movie together in forever so we discovered and heard the hype behind 13 Reasons Why.

13 Reasons Why is a 13 episode long tv series based on the same titled book. It follows a teenager in his quest to uncover the story behind his friend's decision to end her life. Hannah played by WA's Katherine Langford (you go Perth gal!) leaves 13 cassette tapes and on them explains the 13 reasons why she chose to end her life.

I must admit, it was extremely hard to get into until episode 5 or 6, then i became addicted. We watched the entire season in 3 days. Episode 9 is when i realised how dark and depressing this show really is, it's the type of thing you watch and then really don't know how to feel about yourself after. Moving onto Episode 12, absolutely heartbreaking, i couldn't stop crying, it hit me really hard, it was the most confronting thing i have ever watched.

In a way everyone can relate to this, high school is a pretty shitty time for most people, not just high school, growing up in general. This show should be compulsory for high schoolers to watch, people don't realise how their words can affect people.

13 Reasons Why has really made me reflect on my life and the person i currently am and who i want to be. It has made me want to be a better friend and a better human. What an eye opener - now onto the book!
