Valentine's Day

I have never written a post in advance before but then again by the time it gets to Valentines Day these goodies will have been wrapped and exchanged! Today is 4th February. I am celebrating Valentine's day with Anthony on Saturday 9th as he will be back in Bournemouth on the actual day. :(

 I got this super cute card in Paperchase, they have so many sweet animal related ones. As well as cards with cheesy chat-up lines on the front.
 I saw these 'Kisses Tickets' on Urban Outfitters and thought they were funny and really cute.

Of the 100 tickets there are 3 'Golden Tickets' which have extra detail such as 'kiss with hug'.

For the other part of my gift I sat and made little labels as I got 10 of this item, so there were enough from February to November.

I also think I am going to do some Valentine's baking like I did last year! There is almost always an excuse to make cakes or cookies.

Pinterest

It's a Friday evening and I am sitting in my room planning a Disney themed wedding. 

I have been browsing tumblr and falling in love with lots of beautiful photographs (lots with bokeh)... and decided I need somewhere new to post things that can be organised. With Valentine's day coming up I am feeling super lovey and so that is where the entire wedding scenario came from.

In short, I have signed up for Pinterest...

Mickey likes the plans.
 In other news, My mother came home yesterday and told me that she had a gift for me. She also said "Don't be offended" and whipped this badboy out!

My twin?

Thoughts for February

The other day somebody mentioned that I hadn't had my SLR camera out for a long time, So I decided to take a few snaps. I miss photographing, I should really take my camera out more often!


Not sure of Bloggers photo quality, but this was taken on a Canon 600D. With a 50mm lens and a 1.8 aperture- lovely stuff!

December

I have had 5 exams in the January exam period. Biology Unit 4 and Chemistry Unit 4, as well as 3 retakes. These included: Maths Core 2, Mechanics Unit 1 and Biology Unit 2. I revised super hard and I will hopefully get all the results I need. On the night of the 1st of December I got my final 2 University offers.

Wednesday 14th December

Had Anthony's Nan's 80th Birthday Meal. Which was lovely to get dressed up for. I had the best steak and attempted to teach his Grandad to gangnam style!

Tuesday 25th December

I spent most of Christmas day with my family, Granddad and Anthony. Then the other part with Anthony's family where I had to open all of my gifts in front of a crowd.

Wednesday 26th December

I spent Boxing Day with Anthony's family, we had a lovely dinner and had crackers. These crackers contained racing Santa sleighs. I had a really slow orange one and didn't do very well when racing!

Saturday 29th December

The evening before Anthony's birthday I managed to shut his head in my car door, ow. 29th was Anthony and his Mum's birthday woooo! I got him an orange and black Links of London bracelet.
