you throw your head back laughing like a little kid...
December 1st: ChloƩ's 18th Birthday Dinner. ChloƩ's Mum cooked us a lovely three course meal and we played games and danced. The entire group were given party bags which made us all turn into 3 year olds at the dinner table, perfection.

Recycling?
I love eBay, if anyone has any bargains they want to let me know about; It would be the best thing ever!
As I have been out of a job for over three months now I have been desperately finding ways to make money, So I decided to sell all my old clothes on eBay, which proved to be very easy! I then splashed out a little on ASOS... I convinced myself that this unnecessary expenditure is 'recycling' as I used the money I made from my clothes to buy new ones! I got a gorgeous daisy print dress for £10 in the ASOS sale, I love floral prints so much, to buy this was a no brainer. Then I proceeded to add a arran cardigan to my basket for an extra £35. I have issues with shopping online as I can rarely ever bare to part with my money, It always seems easier when you can redeem student discount. They had 25% off which meant my basket was reduced to £33!
I spend a lot of time reading blogs and I am an eager follower of 'Chelsea Jade Loves' and when I saw that she had an inflatable rucksack I simply couldn't resist. Earlier that week I had seen 'Made in Chelsea's' Rosie Fortesque tweet out about the Klear Klutch which inspired me to get the clear inflatable rucksack, which was an eBay bargain at just £3.50!
Last Thursday I took my driving test and PASSED FIRST TIME! I have caught the driving bug and I have been wanting to drive everywhere! I hope to go somewhere exciting at the weekend with Anthony as we have been together for a beautiful seven months now. On Sunday I went to go out in the car and I saw a lovely yellow envelope addressed to me poking out the letter box, I opened it to find an amazing Congratulations card from Anthony's family. It made me very smiley!

Halloween
I have never been so involved in Halloween until this year. I managed to get some work with my friends being 'Halloween Actors' at our local 'Fright Night' which literally meant being paid to dress up and scare people. It was soooo cold and muddy but absolutely hilarious! I was completely dressed in black and I sat in the shadows behind a fence post and screamed at random passersby.
Last night I went to a charity Halloween party dressed as Lady Gaga from the 'Telephone' video although I was slightly less exposed. I had the girls over before for pre-drinks which was a giggle as we danced to 'Gangnam Style'. This on reflection was probably a terrible idea.

Just a fangirl post...
I AM SO HAPPY. My copy of Red by Taylor Swift came by post this morning. I am in love... Thankyou play.com! It's signed (well, it has a squiggle of Sharpie pen on it but, hey!). Last night I managed to go and eat out for £5 including travel, I am so stingy and proud...

Busy Bee
Being Community Captain has suddenly become super difficult I am spending every last minute sorting out this play. We are doing 'Toy Story' the actors are awesome it just needs polishing off with a excessive amounts of facepaint.
At the weekend Anthony came back again which makes me super happy, I spent Friday at his munching on pizza and playing Mario Kart with Natalie and her friend.
Saturday Anthony and I went shopping I got this mega cute bag that looks like a fox from Matalan. Totally inspired by Nicola who instagrammed this thing of beauty.
My boyfriend made me this gorgeous playlist which I have been listening to non-stop since he left. Now Playing: Jack Johnson- Banana Pancakes...
It has been over a month since I last saw Nicola so today we met for a Starbucks, which was magical I had missed her so much. It involved lots of sharing and a cheeky polaroid too!

Rollercoaster
Soooo, something awesome happened this weekend. Anthony came home early! I couldn't even make 2 weeks without seeing him, how pathetic. I ate lots of cake in 2 weeks... After getting stuck at the train station he managed to come home in time to take me out to dinner- how lovely! Anthony always does this thing where he says he will be half an hour then rings my door bell 2 minutes later, cause he's a cutie. On Sunday we went to the cinema to watch 'Looper' which despite being confusing was a really good film! Literally just before the film started Anthony dropped a little bomb by turning to me and going "I'll see you in two weeks..." when I was meant to be seeing him in a month, which was lovely. I just exploded after the film like 'WHAAAAAAAAAT!? :D'. It was a beautiful weekend.

Bournemouth Take 2
For the second Sunday in a row I visited Bournemouth with Anthony and his family. This time we left Anthony there. We arrived and helped him move all of his belongings I had no idea I had a boyfriend with so many clothes! Natalie and I had fun decorating the pin board with lots of sweet things and placing pictures and the pot plant I gave Anthony around the room. I am longing to go to university so much we are living such different lifestyles at the moment. I'm sleepy from long days at school and Anthony is sleepy from long nights out.

Bournemouth
It's taken a long time for me to write this post, perhaps because I have started back at school...
However! Last Sunday I went to Bournemouth with Anthony and his family, it was super nice of them to take me... We looked around the university and where he would be staying and then spent the rest of the time eating by the seaside, it was lovely. Kind of made me forget the whole purpose of the trip.

Forest fun with Nicola and Ella
I spent 6 days in the New Forest with 2 of my best friends and it was simply magical... We watched scary films in our little shack and explored many tearooms.

Excited about Stonehenge |
Exploring our town :D |
The most beautiful tearoom- EVER! |
9 mile bikeride around the countryside... |
Recovering... |
These came in our shack! |
Pretty window decor! |
Our flat :) |
Being back home is actually rather depressing, I have to admit! I miss waking up to company and going on adventures. I have left my job now and I am looking forward to spending weekends with my friends like I should have been doing before despite only being allowed out 1 day each weekend :D

Prague
I stayed with my best friend Aneta and we did lots of magical things including meeting up with some of my school friends who were holidaying...
Dan, Aneta, Myself and Josh and the John Lennon wall. |
Eating Absinth icecream! |
We also visited this fountain which dances to the music of Lady Gaga and Adele...
I 'tried' to eat a burger the size of my face in the biggest Hard Rock Cafe I have ever seen.
Also attempted clubbing which was very fun! This was a 5-story club.
Me on the 'Oldies' dancefloor, I need a bit of ABBA in my life...

Surprises
I have the loveliest boyfriend ever. Yesterday we met at Starbucks at 10.30 in the morning, which seemed really early for the summer holidays. He lead me around the town walking in to different shops and pointing at random items telling me they were clues for our trip today. The clues included:
- Werther's Originals Sweets
- Olympic Posters
- A book about coastal travels
- A train magazine
- Water
We then continued to walk to the train station, where he placed me in front of the electronic ticket machine. I had to guess the destination of out surprise trip. I was certain of my answer so I proceeded to type 'E... A-S-T-B-O-U-R-N-E'. I was so excited, Anthony was taking me to Eastbourne to watch the Olympic Swimming on the giant screen in Prince's Park.
When we arrived we visited the Pier where we wasted endless amount of money on the 2p machines to win small plastic toys... We then enjoyed sausage and chips on the beach! We walked to Prince's Park and watched the Canoeing on the big screen which was rather tense.
It was a lovely day, Thankyou Anthony <3
Oscar's Blessing
On Monday I went to a blessing of a family friend Oscar, who is now 1 which was lovely as we were part of a very select group of friends and family (around 20). It was in the local village church which is filled with history. I was asked to photograph the ceremony by the parents, Louise and Kirk which was very exciting! The blessing was rather short with just a few prayers. I love getting dressed up formally to go out so I spent 3 hours in the morning getting ready, I have no idea what took so long as I don't even wear makeup!?
After the service we returned to the family home for drinks and snacks. Paige is daughter of Louise and Kirk and is 3 and such a sweetie. They have a huge garden where we could play swingball, cricket and go on the swings. The cakes were wonderful!
Ready to go. |

Forgetfulness
I have been very busy and so unorganised at the same time, I made this blog to help remember all the magical things that I do from day to day. It really does help if I keep that promise to record things.
July 1st: My 17th birthday... I had a BBQ on the Saturday with several close friends. The weather was poor. My boyfriend got me a Vintage Brownie Camera and a Nobel Collection Timeturner. My parents got me jewelery and car insurance. Nicola got me a selection of beautiful things including notecards and a water bottle which was abused with Sangria later that evening. Mel gave me some 'L' plates and the remaining gave me Disney DVDs.
Wednesday 18th July: My entire school walked into the town highstreet to watch the Olympic Torch pass, which was rather exciting as there were giant buses giving out free coke and a truck with a TV on the side! I can't wait for the olympics, I have tickets for the womens beach volley ball (thanks dad ;])

Sunday 7th July: I spent with Anthony, we went on a lovely walk and frolicked in fields all romantic like :D
Tuesday 17th July: Sports day at school, It was a really lovely day. It finally came out warm and my house came 5th out of 6th. Which isn't losing! and doesn't make me a terrible community captain. I was amazing at the hula hooping event they gave me 75/25 points, off the scale!
