My top 10 movies!

Hey guys,

I hope you all have had a good week. This post probably wont be a long one, but it is actually one i had planned to post - kinda. I'm trying to get my shit together, but it's me. This is probably the most organised I will get. By hey ho, I'm not mad at myself.

Okay, so as you can tell from the title of the post, I will give you a list of some of my favorite films. Although I have probably missed some so maybe just my 'go to films'.

If you've had a hard week or just feel like you want to treat yourself and relax, grab some snacks, beverages and cosy blankets and watch one of these. They wont be for everyone, obviously but i just thought I'd throw this little list out there.

1. Calamity Jane. One of the best musicals by far.
2. Baby driver
3.Tangled
4. Love, Rosie
5. Mamma Mia
6. The Age Of Adaline
7. The Notebook
8. The Hunger Games (All of them)
9. Not Another Happy Ending
10. Moana

I think that shall be my list. I may have to change it once I finally go see The Greatest Showman. I really wanted to go see it and I hear everyone raving about it so hopefully soon. The list will obviously change over time but I do watch these quite regular so always a fave.

Anyways that's pretty much it for this week. I think next weeks post is the 'Goal for the month' thing i want to do through the year so there's something to look forward to... or not haha.

Have a kick-ass week.

Sunshine Blogger award!

Hey guys,

I hope you've all had a great week.

Again, this is not a post I planned however I am really relieved as I still hadn't done any other preparation for the other posts.

As you can probably tell from the title, I have been nominated for the Sunshine blogger award by the lovely lady Lia over at 'That Girl With That Blog'. If you don’t know, it's given to ‘bloggers who provide inspiration through positivity and creativity in the blogging community’ - I have quoted Lia as it explains it perfectly.
Anyways, thank you so much Lia, it makes me truly happy that you think I achieve to spread positivity around with my blog.

The rules for the Sunshine Award:
1.Thank blogger(s) who nominated you in the blog post and link back to their blog.
2.Answer 11 questions the blogger asked you.
3.Nominate 11 new blogs to receive the award and write them 11 new questions.
4. List the rules and display the Sunshine Blogger Award logo in your post and/or on your blog.

So lets get cracking with the Q's.

1. If you could only ever visit one other country ever again, where would it be and why?
This is quite a tough question. Id like to think I'd go to spain, because of the memories it has with family. However I do really want to go to America before I die. So maybe America, I can always make new memories.

2.What are you passionate about?
I have thought about this for a while now and I think I am going to say Make up. I am never uninspired when it comes to creating a look on my face. I love trying bold colours and being expressive. I like to sit and apply makeup for about three hours. I can do it in say, an hour but i like to truly take my time. It's calming - my kind of meditation if you will.

3.If you could invite 5 people (dead or alive) to a dinner party who would it be?
My grandad, Shane Dawson, Dodie, My uncle, and I have to include Olly Murs obviously.

4. Do you prefer dogs or cats?
Easily cats. I do love dogs too but I think cats are just ahead.

5. What are your favorite things about blogging?
I'd have to say the fact that this is my little space. I can say what I'm feeling, express myself and discuss my opinions without judgement or hate and I really love that.

6. If you could have any skill, what would it be?
I'm either going to say, to be able to learn and understand languages easily or to be a neat person. I'm not a neat person. It's never really bothered me much but now I'm an adult, I kinda wish I had my shit together sometimes.

7. What was your first job?
Helping at a pizza place. Which I am still doing but I enjoy it so why leave?

8. If you could tell one person anything, what would it be?
I'm not 100% sure. I feel like there's a lot of pressure on this question. Either that or I am reading this wrong. If it was someone who I knew was a good person I'd tell them what a good job they're doing. I think anyone would appreciate that.

9. What is one thing you want to achieve?
I'd like to have travelled by myself. I feel like you can learn a lot from this experience and I know that it'd be something I could always be proud of.

10. What is your favourite quality about yourself?
I'd say the fact that I have manners. I think it can make such an impression on people. Manners don't cost a thing but can go a long way.

11.What is one film you could watch over and over again?
There are so many but the first that comes to mind is Calamity Jane. Bloody love that movie.


My nominations for this award are:
1. Gemma: http://www.dorkface.co.uk/
2. Naomi: http://disasterdavis.co.uk
3.Elisabeth: http://www.everythingandnothin.com/

10. Rebecca: http://bexfaye.com/
11. Kirsty: http://www.astoldbykirsty.co.uk/

I have only recently (today) found some of these lovely ladies through twitter. I have looked through so many blogs but I decided on these. I love all of these and think they are all passionate and positive bloggers.

A collection of some of my favourite photos - #1

Hey guys,

This week, Lia (over at That Girl With That Blog) nominated me for the sunshine blogger award. So I want to say thank you Lia. And that post shall come next week. I want to make sure I take the time and effort for that post so I plan on writing it tomorrow while I'm free. I was hoping to write it today but I ended up getting rid off some of my clothes and sorting through my wardrobe a little bit. Next week I promise!

For this weeks post I thought I would share some memories with no explanation just the photos. They probably wont mean anything to any of you but I have a lot of photos and I'd love to be able to look back on my favourites. I do print them but still. I regularly go through all my posts just to see how much I have grown as a person. So It'd be nice to add this one in there.


Here we go I suppose.




















There will be a part two, as I have had to go through so many folders of photos that I will have missed loads. So maybe next month there will be the rest. Maybe it'll be three parts because these are photos on my laptop, not even my phone haha.

Adios amigos!xo

Monthly Goals.

Hey guys,

Happy new year!

I have already started planning posts but have not yet prepared for them. Which is a good start I suppose, better than usual. I want to say next weeks post will be better but who knows. I'll try.

I have decided that this year I want to improve my blog - ironic that this one is already so bad. But I want to put more effort into it, make it great. So buckle up.

I am also going to do another jar where I put good things that happen to me on a slip of paper. I did this for 2015 and did a post about it. It was lovely to empty and read all the little things that gave me happiness so I am going to definitely do it again this year.

I am going to let myself feel more. Well, obviously I have feelings. But I hate getting frustrated and upset (as I'm sure we all do) when there is no reason to 'hate' it. I'm allowed to feel ad I'm not going to apoloise anymore.

These are some goals for the whole year, pretty much the same post as last week only different goals. These are more casual and not actually anything to do with what I wanted to say.

So, this year I also want to set monthly goals. Nothing to much but little things so I can say I have achieved something each month. Whether its to finally wear my jumpsuit out or to volunteer for a charity. You get the idea. I'm thinking of maybe doing a post like this saying what id like to achieve each month and review the previous months goal. This may not last but hey, its an idea.

For January I think I might start small. I will share something that I love with someone. Whether that's food to a relative, or a hobby with a friend. I think it could be a little way of bonding and letting someone get to know you. So we shall revisit this on my first post of next month (hopefully...) and see how it goes.

Have a kick-ass week.
Adios amigos!xo
