One Day

I read One Day by David Nicholls.
Dexter and Emma meet on their last day of college in England and experience life sometimes together, mostly separately over 20 years. Each chapter tells the story of the same day, July 15. In each chapter they are either emotionally together, thinking about one another or litterally together, which makes us realise the should betogether long before they get together.
Dexter and Emma are the definition of the saying "opposites attract" Emma is a bookish working class northerner and Dex is from a privlleged backround and is very confident.
After spending there first night together there is a promise that they will do something together the next day "brand new day" , they then go their seprate ways , keeping in touch by letter or postcards. Emma is very much infatuated with him and sends him page long letters when he can barely scrap together aline on a postcard and doesn't take much meaning or notice from her "love" letters. Esentially he's not ready for a relationship , but from the letters and quarrel's theres a hope that he will be.
One day brings up the question of "can women and men just be truely good friends". This book made me laugh even tho the plot matter is not uplifting but the ending made me cry but left me in a fury of unsatisfaction and wanting more, its not a classic "happy ever after" and in some ways shows the diffrence between men and women writters. The ending was unlikely and cruel to readers and viewers or the motion picture after falling in love with Emma.
I found this book lived up to my expectations and the hype press put on it!
I would give it 10/10

Thailand!!

Haven't blogged in a while because I was in Thailand for 2 weeks and then it was midterm.
Thailand was great but so different to Ireland ! I flew over by myself to my dad were he was working. We went on loads of trips, like to tiger temple and elephant trekking ! Elephant trekking was my favourite ! The elephant I was on was called Mikey. In our geography project I choose Thailand for my second world country. It was easier to do when you've actually experienced the places. I loved thailand so much
