Summer Bucket List

Summer, as we know, is just around the corner. In Scotland, we are lucky if summer lasts a day. This summer though, I want to make it the best summer it ever can be. So I want to write a summer bucket list, and when on completion of something on the list, I will blog about it. There was so many things I want to do and try out, and I can't wait until Summer comes around.

1. Have a garden party( including a bbq)

2. Go to the beach

3. Go back to Falkland( this is a very pretty place near where I live)

4. Bulgaria

5. Make a YouTube account

6. Play paint twister

7. Movie marathon

8. Watch the stars

9. Go on a nice long walk 

10. Charity walk for Young Minds

11. Make tie dye t shirts

12. Have a picnic

13. Go to the cinema

14. Go to a party

15. Have friends round for some drinks

16. Treat family to lunch

17. Make a photo journal

18.Try something new

19. Shopping

20.Random act of kindness

Now, that is a lot of things I have planned, but I am hoping to be able to do most, if not all of these. Leave a comment telling me what you want to do this summer, and I might even get some ideas!

Revision, friends and more revision!

Hola my amigos! As you may or may not know, it is exam time in Scotland. So I have spent the majority of this week revising for upcoming exams in the next few weeks. But, as promised, here is my weekly favourites. This week, I didn't do many exciting things, but I hope that after exams are over, I can get back to being able to doing more exciting things than just revising.

Night in with friends

On Monday, Danielle asked my friends Clare, Rachel and I all over to hers. We chilled, listened to music and had a good laugh. We do this a lot and I love it so much, getting to spend time with my three best friends. Love my chikkas!

Shopping
Summer is so soon, and I was so unprepared for it when it comes to clothes. So on Thursday, my mum and I decided to go shopping. I love buying new clothes and trying loads of different things on. I bought quite a lot and love it all (some if it will be in a summer clothes blog later). I love going shopping with my mum because we get to spend one on one time together and have a laugh.

Revision

I hate revision more than anything, but one night this week, I sat down with a cup of tea and revised for a good solid few hours. It felt sooo nice afterwards knowing that I had at least gotten somewhere with it all.

Night with Rachel
Danielle went to her dads this weekend, and Clare had her cousin over from Ireland, so Rachel and I were lost for things to do. So we decided on Rachel coming round to mine for a nice night to chill. We decided to eat loads of crap and watched The Boy in the Striped Pjamas. I love that film and it is a right tear jerker. If you haven't seen it then I strongly suggest you do!

Well, that's been my rather uneventful week, but next week is looking to be much better.

Much love x

April Favourite 2015

Hola my señoritas! As you know, we are well into the month of May, but I thought it was time to share my April favourites with you. Last month I tried quite a few new products which I love. Usually, with products such as makeups or perfumes, I am really picky and tend to just stick with the same ones all the time. But in April I decided to try some new things and was not disappointed.


Barry M matte top coat

For my friend Danielles birthday, I bought her the Barry M top coat. I loved it after trying it but never got round to actually buying it. Last month though, there was an offer on at Superdrug which was buy 2 products and get 1 free. So I decided to finally get this top coat. I love it so much because it takes a shade that is usually really shiny and bright and makes it matte. It is especially nice over pastel shades such as light blues or purples. It costs either £2.99 or £3.99 so it is really affordable.


Rimmel London Scandal Eyes Rocking Curves Mascara

With mascara, I am really unadventurous. For the last 3 years I have used the same mascara from Avon, because I found that it made my eyelashes look really nice and long and didn't clump them together. However, last month I ran out of it, and it would be another two weeks until a new one arrived. So I went down town and bought Rimmel London's Scandal Eyes Rocking Curves and wow I love it! It leaves my eyelashes looking super long and it doesn't clump them together like other mascaras do. The shape of the brush also makes it super easy to apply. It costs only £6.99 so it is really cheap which is a bonus.

Bodyshop Moringa Body Mist

I've actually had this for a few months but I never really used it because I was too busy using DKNY perfume. I've been using it a lot this month though and I love it. It is in the scent Moringa and it smells so good! I also have it in the shower gel and the body cream which was all in a pack. The scent isn't too overpowering which is good and doesn't fade during the day. For the mist alone it is around £9 I think so it is a good price and I recommend.

Dunnes Candles

As you may already know, I love candles and wax melts. I was in a shop called Dunnes and notices these little candles and decided to buy some. I got them in the scent Vanilla Pod. They have 18 hours of burn time which is really good for a candle of this size. And the smell is amazing. They cost only £1.25 which is amazing too.

Take Out Of Me EP

So in February, I went to see Orla Gartland(I wrote about it in my February faves). A man named Martin Luke Brown was supporting and he was handing out his EP for free. I gave it a listen and fell in love with his voice. The trouble was though that I had a CD copy of his EP so could only listen to it in the car. But in April it finally was released on iTunes It is really cheap at only £1.99. My favourite song on it has to be Thorns. If you've never heard of him, I highly reckon you go give him a listen because his music is amazing.


Looks like I have seriously rambled on in this favourites blog so will leave it there. If you like the sound of any of these products then I recommend them all.

My First Time Tag!

I was going to do a weekly favourites blog, but this week I barely did anything as I was busy revising for my History exam. So instead i've decided I want to do the 'My First Time' Tag. I've seen a lot of YouTubers doing this and I though it would be fun to do aswell!

'Did I seriously just see someone iron their hair? Messed up world!' This is a really weird tweet but I remember why I wrote it. It was because I was watching X Factor and a girl on it was ironing her hair with an actual iron, rather than straightening it.

First YouTube Video?
I posted a video when I was about 11 or 12 of me singing but I deleted it!
