I don't feel like dancing

Today has been amazing :) loovely retail therapy with my best friends! they really know how to cheer me up! bought a looovely scarf from priiimark today and it's beautiful. It's quite large, shawl like really but I fold mine into a scarf :) I also bought some foundation today, my first ever. might seem a bit silly but I've really never felt the need to buy any haha. I know some girls love it but I was fine with my tinted moistoriser! haha.
So any way in regards to the blog title, I'm super tired at the moment but I thought I'd check my blog updates and do a little blog post :) Also bought a lovely cup of tea today  as it was freezing cold! I sound like an old woman but I'm just rediscovering my love of tea. I liked it when i was younger but went off it cos it was a bit samely. Now it's perfect when I'm out in the cold!
Also I'm sorry for the super small writing yesterday :/ I must have accidently changed it without realising! Back to normal now though. Thanks to Fashion Cappuccino for pointing that out to me :)
Would like to give a big shout out also to my first and only follower Rose Esprit :) I logged on this morning and it said "one follower" I was so happy I think I just sat here with a ridiculous grin on my face. So thank youu for making my day! :) Your blog is so cuteeee! Love it.
Better be off now, last day of the holidays tomorrow..I'm thinking loveely long lie in :)
Hope you all enjoyed your mondaay! xoxoxoxo

i can feel it in my fingers

Woah I'm posting two days in a row, it feels good. :) I know it's late but I thought I'd write a post so I can try blog daily. Ahh don't you just love the feeling of pvc drying on your fingers? No, I'm not going crazy I just decided to embrace some creativity today! I pulled out the stack of magazines that had been piling up under the pretence that I would read them again! I haven't! There were some from summer 2009 - that definetly urged me to put them to better use. Cue a night of cutting out cute sayings, timeless fashion and favourite articles. :) love it! I might make a poster with them all on. hmmm. Also I loved reading the "hot" stories from two years ago, was funny reading their predictions about what they believed would happen and whether they had done!
I spent today shopping, shopping, shopping :) it was bliss! Though I still have mountains of work to do :/ not good! Ahh well, I'll get in done - still got few days off :) YAY!
Tomorrow I'm out all day in town and hopefully I'll be meeting up with my friend that I haven't seen since last week! aha.
Currently thinking of a "signature" to put on the bottom of my blog - these are popular with some blogs but I couldn't decide whether I just follow with this. So I've decided to think of some designs and maybe trial them on a few blog posts and see if I like them :)
I'm so excited it's the weekend! Roll on the good times!

dancing on my own

Ok ok ok I did think being on holiday would let me blog everyday but honestly I have just not found the time. I'm really sorry but I will try and blog daily from now; if not every day maybe every two days :) Monday was a blur, it was just a day for chillaxing and forgetting about work and exams. Yesterday, I went shopping with the family and bought some storage boxes for my bedroom and some photo frames for pictures from my holidays.
Sorry for the shortness of this post, I just haven't really done anything that interesting or bought anything that I thought you'd like to know about :)
Also you might have noticed that I've changed the fonts on the title and date etc, I just felt I needed to make my blog more "pretty". Even though it's still not that nice, it will motivate me to finally sort out the header! I'm thinking a black and white photo :)
Hope you're all having an amazing week! xoxoxoxo

let us forget about the bad times

Short and sweet post today just to say I am so excited that it's the holidays. Proper needed a break too. Haven't got many concrete plans as of yet but hopefully it'll be the perfect time to go out with friends and get some shopping done. Also it might give me more time for blogging - maybe a post a day ;) haha.
One thing I would love to buy this week is some bright red lipstick. It's such a staple but I never knew if I would be able to pull it off. After much ooming and ahhing I've decided to go for it, just need to find a shade that I like now!
Hope you all have amazing plans for this week! xoxoxoxo

Bye Bye 2010

I know there is one more day left of this year but I don’t think I’ll have time to blog this then so I decided to give it a go now. I've seen blogs giving top things about 2010, blogs full of reflection and lessons learnt and blogs that are all wildly excited about new years eve and of course 2011. I suppose by blog could be all of those things. 2010 has been a wake call I feel, I’ve discovered new things that previously I would never have thought to try, found it easier to adapt to the changes that constantly surround me and "grew up" in the way I handle situations. There that's all the reflection
done and dusted. I have exciting plans for 2011 that I hope will succeed and if not help to improve myself and move on. I can sense a number of exciting changes ready to occur in the New Year as well as important milestones that require attention as well as those that need celebration. I don't really know if I could make a list of best things of 2010 as no doubt I’d forget something important during writing them down. Summer 2010, was an amazing period - going abroad with friends, festivals and the little day time trips with the best friends. But then winter hasn't been bad at all, concerts and meals as well as the amazing amount of snow that dropped in for a visit. So really as I think back (sorry I’m reflecting again!) 2010 as been a great year, though obviously still with its hardships and sad moments. Hopefully 2011 will be full of hope, promise and celebration :)
Hope you all have an awesome new years eve and a great new year!
Enjoy yourselves!

It's Mondaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

Despite the fact that it's Monday, I have actually had a pretty amazing day that just keeps getting better :) firstly, I am so excited that in this weekend I am going to a concert :D I’m so happy. That just made everything today even better! Today was also a good day for meeting up and talking to friends and still getting some work done. It was actually quite a chilled out day, also not as cold as it has been recently. Result! I have just settled down for a night full of work when I found my lost textbook! It had been lost for two months! I’m so happy now; I don't need to be shouted at when I ask for a new one! :) Yay! Also the fact I’ve been given a box of chocolates as an early Christmas present is making everything even better!
I think I may be a bit too excitable what with the breaking up for Christmas only five days away! I can't wait for Christmas this year for some reason. :) I love it. Another Christmassy reason why today is a good day is that I’ve paid my deposit for my Christmas meal with my friends. I cannot wait for that either! Everything seems to be coming together today :)
Sorry if I’ve babbled on about nothing in particular, I’ve been hit by the Christmas fever!
Hope you have a great week and have amazing Christmas plans!

Mission Accomplished

Today was a great day in terms of I got a lie in and also finished early...result! I woke up, got ready and went to straighten my hair when low and behold it seriously wouldn’t straighten nicely. I really couldn’t be bothered trying to force it straight any longer and decided to go with the childhood staple plaits. I mean these are also making a comeback so it didn't look bad at all! Much better than the bird's nest it would have been!
I finished a lunch, and due to my closeness to town decided to nip in afterwards to get some much needed Christmas presents for my family :) I had mentally compiled a list and set about ticking off presents one by one. I had already gotten a few bits and ideas, and now can say I’ve bought all the presents for my parents and most for everyone else :) so all in all it was a very successful day!!
As well as the regular shops, my two of my best friends and I went to the little Christmas market that was in town. It was beautiful, the crafts were amazing and the food smelt delicious! And you just can't go shopping without buying sometime yourself so I treated myself to a hand painted sign for my room, some lunch and a nice cake in a loovely, quiet coffee shop..Bliss! I read a bit of my book then off it was home with my new purchases and the satisfied feeling that...yes...I had got some Christmas presents! I was, at least, a little prepared for the holidays!
After an exhausting day, I'm now ready to put my feet up and relax for the remainder of the night :)
Hope you've had a good Thursday!
