Some of these are 'cleaning' songs, others 'getting ready' songs and such, that's why there's such a difference. I hope you all found this post somewhat entertaining, if you did, you're welcome. You're all amazing.

Feeling unmotivated.

Hey guys,

I hope you've all had a great week, I know I have. Although the Easter break is coming to an end which just makes me sad. Thankfully I don't do Mondays or Tuesdays at college but still. If you want to know about a particular great day I had last week, feel free to read last Sunday's post HERE.


Okay, so its almost time to go back to college after two weeks off. I know all you adults who work probably think I'm lucky, which yes I am. However you had your time in education this is mine so please shh.

Lately - pretty much all year - I have felt so unmotivated. I don't want to do anything. I don't understand why but I do. I have left a whole 10 week project until the last two days of my holiday, and I hate myself for it. I cant help it though! I know a lot of other people do the same so I don't even care haha.

I just really don't feel like doing any college work, or any work for that matter. I keep saying that I don't care about my grades as long as I pass. But I also really want the highest, which I know I can achieve but I just don't feel like it. Call it laziness or whatever but it has me feeling ever so bored and stuck.

I'd rather stay in bed and not talk to anyone and not do anything. I don't even know why.

Finding the little things that keep us going is so important so I'm going to include a few photos that make me happy. Not that I am unhappy, just unmotivated and I need something happy to keep me going.


flowers make me very happy.


Last nights makeup was pretty fab



(For obvious reasons)

I miss this one so much, and this photo is just filled with genuine happiness.
One of my faves.


I hate to have short unhappy posts but as I have always viewed this as a safe place I figured why not.

Next weeks will be happier, I promise.

Adios amigos!xo

Driving like an adult now.

Hey guys,

As always I hope you all had a lovely week. Those of you in education who've had a week off, I'm sure you were all super ready for the Easter break. Me too. Although, at the beginning, I was going to use the time to catch up on work however, that hasn't worked out so now I only have a week to do a whole project (hahaHELPMEhaha). Anyway, as always I will link my last post here where I spoke about 5 things I hope to do more of.

I know I have mentioned so many times now about driving, or at least I think I have, but yesterday I drove 3 of my friends to have a meal. I felt like such an adult (you know, minus all the issues with loans, housing bills and such like). I liked it and also hated it for obvious reasons.



It was somewhere I hadn't ate before, but I must say it was so delicious. Deserves a 5/5, without a doubt. And it was pretty cheap too considering how much you could have. I also think its save to say that, Becky, Hannah & Kyle all agree haha. I bloody loved it, the meal and the company.

Afterwards they all decided that they weren't ready to go home yet and decided on a local park. It took some convincing (including a hill with a slide???) but I took them there too. I must say, the crazy golf was worth the journey alone. It was hilarious - mainly because I'd never played and was pretty crap. I actually almost hit a car...oops. I actually think I won one out of the many we did, but it was still so fun. We were always laughing, which was lovely.






Kyle almost got stuck in the slide which was quite funny, I didn't even attempt going down. I wish they did bigger slides, so adults could join in on the fun. It would've been epic. Although we got a great selfie at the top of the hill, so not bad I guess. We all also tried the 'gym' stuff which was also funny, we learned that I have no upper body strength - not that I didn't already know.



After all this I drove home but Becky was determined to have a Starbucks. So while Hannah had to leave us, we went to go be fancy in a coffee shop. We had a little chat (mainly about potential partners) and it was a great end to the day.


I must say, its been one of the best days of the year so far. I really enjoyed it. To say it was one of Becky's drunken idea's, it certainly was a good one.

I hope for more times like this.

P.s. For those of you who care, we went to Toby Carvery for the meal haha.

5 things I hope to do more of.

Hey guys,

As usual I hope you all had a lovely week. I certainly did, I broke up from college for two weeks for Easter on Friday so I'm all nice and chilled again. Although this hangover is certainly making me stressed. But lets just start this post so I can rest haha.

I always, always say this but I want to do more exercise. On Friday night I came up stairs to nap but then I thought to myself, I could either sleep a few of my hours away or get on my exercise bike. I chose the bike - surprisingly. I hope to keep it up, especially because I drive now, I wont be walking as much (not that I really go anywhere). I just want to get fit mostly, maybe lose a few pounds but I guess that'd be a bonus.

Another thing I'd love to do more of is read. Last year I read The Girl On The Train (still haven't seen the film either) and I absolutely loved it. I loved the routine I had of going to bed at 9, reading for an hour and then falling straight to sleep. I also found that my memory was at its best. If you know me at all, my memory is shocking. So it'd definitely be beneficial for my health.

A third thing I'd love to do more of it painting in my own time. I am on an art course but yet hardly do any art at home. And I just think its a shame because I love it so much.

I had to throw this in, but I'd love to go shopping more. Now I am still on the hunt for a job so ill have to wait until I get an actual income but I just miss it. It was such a hobby of mine. And now I cant afford to do it, it makes me sad.

The final thing I hope to do more of is adventure out. Whether that's with a makeup look or literally adventuring in the world. Obviously I cant afford to travel abroad or whatever but cute little local places (if they even exist in my area) I could try. I appreciate pretty things the world has to offer, nature, sunsets/sunrises, all the other silly things too. so I think it'd be a shame to waste my time napping all day, everyday.


That's all for this post really. I will add photos tomorrow and lengthen this outro but I am struggling so much to keep my eyes open so apologies. I hope you all enjoyed this short yet sweet post. and until next week.

Adios amigos!xo

Update - Again.

Hey guys,

I'm thinking of actually doing these posts every few weeks, maybe once a month. Because after all, a blog is pretty much a public diary and I feel like a catch up fits well. So that's fun.
If you haven't read my last post (because I always forget to share the link) click HERE and enjoy.

In my last catch up post, I mentioned that I had passed my practical driving test and I was looking for a car. Well I have finally found one, and I love it. I haven't named it yet though. Maybe shelly, after Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory, maybe even Howard haha. I haven't decided. If you have any suggestions, feel free to leave them below.

Hmm, what else has happened lately...

Lately I have been thinking about cutting my hair and dying it a little. I mean, cut my hair more of a significant amount, maybe just above boob area, or lower. Ah I don't know. I have pretty long hair but I'd love to experiment while I have the chance. But I would also love to dye my hair. But I'm too scared, hopefully I will get the courage sometime soon.

I also have so much college work to do its suffocating. I have just had no motivation what so ever for so long now, I don't know why. could be to do with the fact that im technically Aneamic now, I don't quite know how it works I just know that I was very low in iron so now I am having three tablets a day. But I must say, I haven't had my usual 4 hour afternoon nap in a while so progress! Not even exaggerating with the nap time haha.


Finally I have been trying to make my Instagram a little better. A little more than just selfies, after all, I am an art student. I just felt like it wasn't good enough. So I shall leave some images below just to give you guys a taste but hopefully I can keep it up because I always go back to the selfies haha. Not that, that's bad obviously.


flower power and all xo


Anyways that's all I can think of for this post. I'm sure if I think of something else, I'll either add it or save it for the next one haha. I hope you all have a smashing week.

Adios amigos!xo
