My Summer Top 10 list fail

Hi guys,

So a while back I made my summer to do list where I explained that I will be doing plenty of things during my summer, well to be honest I would try to and sadly I failed!!
 
It's not that I didn't try to do all those things but I just couldn't I got a full time job and was emotionally and physically drained with no energy left at the end of the day.
 
To be honest I still want to do all those things especially starting my very own youtube channel because sometimes I just want to record a video talking to you lovely guys and I feel that although you won't get as much content with a video but actually you will get to know me closer as through a video my personality will shine through.
 
Now I don't only want to go to Brighton to explore it but I also want to move there and live. I have always wanted to live near the sea but close to my family so that I can pop round anytime. I am hoping to move there by the time I am 23 so that now I can save up lots of money and not have to worry about anything.
 
Right sorry this was a short post but I thought that seeing as we are coming into Autumn and my list was mainly based for summer I would explain why I didn't get through it.
 
 Lots of Love

New Beginings!!

Hey Guys,

So following the recent theme of my previous blog post theme and this one is about the hardest yet best decision that I had to ever make in my life!!.
 
 
So a couple of years ago I had to make the though choice of what sixth form collage I would have to go to and where it would be located. After a long time planning where I would want to go I made a decision about moving away. This involved my whole family moving and looking for a new house to live in because at the place that I used to live I no longer had the friends of support from teachers that I needed to stay at my school. Knowing that I am taking a huge risk by moving away I really didn't care anymore as I wanted to live my past life of sorrow and misery behind and start fresh.
 
 
And so I applied to a school where I was given an conditional offer to study there and that was a dream come true to me because we found the house we wanted to live in and moved in, we all got settled in and then came results day!!! that sadly was an awful day for me because not only did I suffer from post exam depression but I also had bad panic attacks about everything and on the day of my results I found out that the grades I got were not good enough for the school I wanted to go to, I of course passed all of my exams it was just that I was aiming too high for that school.
 
After long considerations and a lot of persuading from my sister I went to another school which had its enrolment day earlier on and there I asked if I could join. The lovely head of ear there allowed me to join the brilliant school and then my life was good I was slowly getting over my post exam depression and getting ready to start school.
 
On my very first day of school, not knowing anyone I felt like an outsider and yes at the age of 16 with everything that went on in my previous school I was scared that I would never get accepted my any friendship group and that they have all already created strong bonds with each other that some intruder wasn't needed. But I was nicely surprised when a group of girls came up to me and said I can hang out with them.
 
But during my first ever Law class I saw this bubbly and smiley young girl just sitting there and looking at me smiling at me and well I though to my self she seems strange but nice strange. This smiley girl is now my BEST friend and I would never change anything for the world.
 
So the moral of this post is that no matter how bad things get you can always move on and change something I changed the location where I lived and found my best friend who I sometimes feel like I've known all my life and now nothing can knock me down as I grew as a stronger person.
 
Just remember never be afraid of change because 9 out of 10 times it's good for you.
 
 
Lots of Love

School Times

Hey guys,

So as its back to school week I thought I'd do a post about my school experience and also add some of my first week of school essentials.
Although I will not be going to school anymore I thought that I would prepare my school essentials that I would of packed to school.
 
Starting off with a notepad. I always had and to be honest still have a notepad in my bag just in case I ever needed to make notes or if there was that I person you your class that always forgot their books or needed paper, well I was that girl who always had spare so no one was ever without paper. 
 
Next essential item in your bag should be your pencil case and in there you should always have highlighters at least 3 different colours and also pens, not only the colours black or blue but also either a red or green or different colours so that if you have to underline any headings you can make your page look nice and presentable. I also found it easier to highlight the important parts in case of revision.
 
And don't forget a water bottle because you will always need a drink of water during the long days so having water with you helps. 
 
For me the most important thing to have in my bag was lip-gloss as in my school you were never allowed to wear any make-up so lip-gloss was always a thing that you could hide from teachers as they newer seemed to notice.
 
Not forgetting your bag!! In my secondary school days I always had a cute bag with me never a backpack with me as it was always a fashion and personality statement to show what bag you had at school.
 
And these were my top 5 things you should have on your first week of school but also something you should have throughout the year.

Monthly Favourites

Hi Guys,

So seeing as it is now September I thought I will do my August favourites as there were a lot of both beauty and non beauty things that I was really loving last month.
 
 
I will start of with makeup and other beauty related favourites and then explain my random favourites to you lovely people.
 
Right so the first thing that I was loving over the month of August was my No7 Foundation.
 
No7 Stay Perfect Foundation | Boots | £14.50
I have always struggled to find my perfect foundation shade because I either chose one that was a lot too light or too dark making me have to mix 2 foundation shades together because I didn't want to waste any of my foundations, now my shade is calico. As I was in my local boots store I noticed that they actually offered the match made service and seeing as it only took 5 minutes I went to see what my perfect match was, now that I have the perfect foundation shade I no longer have to worry if my foundation matches.
 
 
My next beauty favourite is my Miss Sporty Perfect Colour Lipstick in the shade Berry Me!.

Miss Sporty Perfect Colour Lipstick | Boots | £2.59
I discovered this lipstick thanks to my cousin who had the lipstick on all the time and it never looked faded or smudged. I bought the lipstick not expecting a lot as I thought my cousin was trying to trick me but actually I am pleasantly surprised that the lipstick stays on for a long time, and I really mean a long time I applied it in the morning and throughout the day I had no need to re-apply the lipstick as it stayed on all day. I highly recommend this lipstick if just like me you don't like to re-apply lipstick or even if your life is too busy for you to re-apply constantly.

Next on my favourites list I've got my summer fragrance diesel loverdose tattoo.

Diesel Loverdose tattoo | Boots | £29.99
I got this fragrance as part of my birthday gifts and I have forgotten about having it for a while until the summer and mainly August and I have used the fragrance everyday in August and now I must say that it is my favourite. The perfume has a sweet scent and ever since wearing the fragrance I was complimented by everyone who was in my presence.

I always love using new body butters and over the month of August I have used the limited edition Chocomania from the body shop.

Chocomania | body shop | £5.00
I really do enjoy using chocomania because it makes my skin both look and feel amazing and the good thing is I get to smell like chocolate all day long. I know that this scented body butter may not be for everyone but I personally love using it.  

My last beaut favourite is my Hollister body spray.
Crescent bay mist | Hollister | £12

Along with my diesel perfume the 2 scents create the best mix making me feel refreshed and also I get to have something that reminds me of a special friend. I got this from my best friend for my birthday and seeing as she is all the way in Plymouth I have this as a reminder of her and all the amazing times we had together when she's back home as she was the one who got me to love the scent.
  
Starting off with my non beauty favourites I've got my small bag from miss selfridge.

Bag | Miss selfridge | £20.00
I always needed a small bag just in case if I got out clubbing I need something that can fit all of my stuff but also be small and comfortable for me to have all night, so when I found it in store I was a really happy girl because it was the bag I always dreamed of without actually knowing I want it. It's really practical as I use it on a daily bases as well just cant put as much stuff as I want in there as there is no room but it is perfect for weddings or any special occasions.  

Next up is my very own personalised mug.

Mug | Poland | £...

I got this as a present from my parents when they went to Poland and ever since they got back I have been using this mug all the time. I myself am a tea addict so that means I use this mug all the and it is the best one yet for me.

The very last favourite of mine is a Tv show.

Finding Carter | MTV | Tuesdays
Finding Carter is an amazing MTV show that follows the life of a teenage girl who at the age of 16 found out that 13 years ago was abducted by the women she now calls mum, and the whole struggle of her livig with her biological family and finding out she has a twin sister. I wont say too much as I don't want to spoil anything to anyone who hasn't watched the show and does want to but if you wan to find out more or you as well are obsessed with the show you can get in touch with me via twitter or even email.

And these have been my August favourites I hope you have enjoyed reading this post and if you have any suggestions of what I could try out that you yourself have been loving in august feel free to contact me and I will surly try it out.  
Lots of Love
