31 Day Photo Challenge - Day 1

Hi Guys,
So after being inspired by Louise from Sprinkle of Glitter's posts last month, I have decided to try and do my own 'my month in photos' series.

Basically I am going to try my bestest, to post a photo every single day this month, (yes I know this is going up on the 2nd but just roll with me here) hehe!

So without further ado, here is day 1!

These are my presents from my brother, he has been away for 2 weeks to San Fran & LA with 2 of his friends and these are what he brought back for me, he can by thoughtful sometimes!

SO I hope that you guys are excited about this, and if any of you decide to do something similar let me know!

Lots of Love

What I Have Been Loving This Week

Hi Guys, 

So I have decided to go more lifestyle on here and I hope that you are all going to like this change. I have decided to do each week a ‘what I have been loving this week’ post. Which can be anything that is as random as I like, which is the way that my personality is. So without further a do,

Me & Chris, Yes I know its a little cringe worthy but I do love this boy

1-      Tea, I have been loving Earl Grey tea, it is my favourite kind of tea anyway but I have got back into having ‘a brew’ again and I have been loving it.

2-      My Cat, I have had my cat since I was 4 and she is the little love of my life, she is called Missy and she is a Tabby cat, she has taken to sleeping in my bedroom and on the end of my bed which is lovely when you are snuggling up to go to sleep.

3-      Lunch with the Boyfriend, We normally do this every Sunday afternoon at our golf club after he has finished playing. I do not play on a Sunday but Chris plays most Sundays at silly o clock in the morning (Yes that’s an actual time, normally around 7:30) and we sit and have lunch together and chat with our friends and it is lovely.

4-      Friends, This is more towards the fact that my friends are all coming back from Uni at the moment and this makes me very happy.

5-      Darts, yes this is very very weird, but I play in a ladies darts team for my local pub and have played since I was 14 when I used to live in a pub, and we have a game every Tuesday night, I have started playing for a new team and I am enjoying it so much, anyways, I played in a fun knockout with my boyfriend’s friends on Wednesday and I got to the final out of 8, which I was very happy about.

6-      Music, I have really got back into having my ipod with me and listening to music a lot again, I have been getting some new music together for on my ipod and in my car which I love.

7-      Driving in the sun, kind of self-explanatory, but the last 2 weekends where I live have been nice and sunny and I love driving with my windows down singing to cheesy music :)  yes I know I'm sad!

So anyway guys this is what I have been loving this week, I hope you have enjoyed this post and I will speak to you again in a few days :)

What have you been loving recently?

Lots of Love

Friends, Blogging & Ramble

Helloo Guys,

So I know I have been away for 6 days and as I said in my last post I have been very busy trying to sort out a lot of things. So I thought that I would just do a bit of a rambly life kind of post for you today. Sorry if these bore you but I like to have a bit of a ramble sometimes and seen as a lot of my best friends are away at university *sobsob* I enjoy having a bit of a ramble to you. So I guess I will start with me just mentioning that, My friends. I rarely see any of my best friend’s from school because most of them are away at university. My 2 best friend’s Betony & Hannah both live in Leeds which is a 2 hour train journey away from where I live and it costs about £30, so seen as I am not working at the moment this is quite hard. One of my other friend’s Laura is going traveling on Wednesday for a year so I am not going to be able to see her for a long time either. Anyway, I still live in the town that I went to school in, I spend most of my time when I am out with either my boyfriend Chris and our friends or with my friends that I had before I was with him. 

Hannah, Betony & Me

Have you ever found that you randomly get thrown together and become really good friends with someone, sometimes out of a bit of a dodgy situation? Well me and my really good friend Laura (a different one from the one who is going travelling) have had this same experience. We used to be mates who were in the same friendship group when I was with my Ex-boyfriend and used to just chat randomly. I'm not going to get into the details of it but during the breakup of my old relationship with my ex some things were said and I was very glad that Laura considered me as a good enough friend to tell me everything and explain things to me. Ever since then we have been getting closer and we now go on girly nights out just the 2 of us and will just go and get a coffee and have a chat, she is there for me when I need her and I am there for her when she needs me.

Anyway, none of these friends of mine know about my blog at all but I am going to start to tell people at some stage soon, probably starting with my boyfriend to be honest. There are a lot of reasons that I haven’t told people to be honest but talking to other bloggers on twitter, and through the #bbloggers chat on a Sunday night, they have been so supportive and have gotten me thinking about talking to my family and friends about it. I tweeted earlier that I am trying to get my friend to start blogging, she reads lots of blogs like I do and watches youtube videos, she has also said to me before that she would love to be a youtuber so I thought that getting a friend involved in what I am doing will help me come forward to people. So hopefully I will have her blog to show you guys some time soon.

So I know that this was one of the most random posts that I have ever done. I am going to get some more up this week and at the weekend so keep your eyes out for that.

Have you told people about your blogging? What was their reaction?

7 Things For 7 Days ¦October 2012¦

So today I have been having a major blog fuddle, and decided to join in Sprinkle or Glitter’s ‘7 Things for 7 Days’ again! So here we go

 

Pass – my driving test this is! I have got it booked in just over a weeks’ time and I am soo nervous! I mean I know it’s not exactly something small but I am so determined to achieve this!  :) it is my 1^st test so I have no idea what to expect, but I have been out in my car practicing with my granddad and having my normal lessons and everyone keeps telling me that I am doing well so *fingers crossed* and all that!

Save – money!! I am spending way too much money on things that I DO NOT NEED!! *going out as well but shhh*  seen as I'm going to be driving soon *hopefully* I am going to need money for petrol and stuff like that :) so yea that really needs to be done!

Stop – Smoking!!! Yes I know that it is such a bad habit!! But along the lines with wanting to save money, it is the biggest waste of money in the world! So far I am 2 days without a cigarette! I am majorly determined this time to do it!

Sort – I still have so many things under my bed in boxes from when we moved house and I am getting a bit fed up with it all just sat there! So I am going to become ruthless and get rid of things that I don’t need!

Prepare – my own tea or lunch! I absolutely love cooking and healthy food! But recently I have been just eating things that are easy to grab quickly. This doesn’t really help with the fact that I am trying to lose weight! :(

Gym – I used to absolutely love going to the gym! It made me feel so much better about myself and gave me so much more energy! I feel so bad because I haven’t been since we moved house! I really want to get back into going swimming and to the gym and get back down to the weight I want to be!

Make time – to do everything I want and need to do! I haven’t seen my friends in a very long time because of things that have been going on at the moment! I really want to make time to go and see them and have good catch ups, as well as getting all my work for college done and going to the gym and eating better! Man that does sound like a lot of stuff to do as well as going to work! Oh well!

 

Well there we go! There are my 7 things that I want to achieve! I can’t wait to see if I can actually achieve them all! It is going to probably be for the rest of the month but oh well! :)

Have any of you done your 7 things for 7 days?

Lots of Love

ImPRESS Press-on Manicure - Review

Hey Guys,

I hope you are all okay! I have been a little slack this week on my blogging again! *SmackHand* I have been so busy with working and beginning to start everything out for the house move! Also just as an added note, I passed my driving theory today! *YAYYY* 1^st time and everything!

Anyway onto the actual post, over this weekend I decided to try out my ImPRESS Press-on Manicure. I had from Friday afternoon off work until Monday morning, nails are not a great thing for me to have for work as I work behind a bar so nail varnish gets chipped very easily and DIY false nails just come off when im washing glasses etc. so as I knew that I was going out this weekend for a couple of different things I decided to give them a go, I got soooo many compliments about them and absolutely loved them. They were so easy to apply, all you have to do is find the right size for your nails, peel off the backing and press them on. As easy as that!! I would definitely try them again as I found that they stayed on great!

This second picture is actually one that my best friend’s sister posted on her Instagram when I saw her in the pub on Sunday night and she actually captioned it ‘REEM NAILS!’ which I was very impressed with!

Have any of you tried these nails? If so what did you think?

I have also made myself a twitter account! @beautybynumbers Exciting stuff!
