Success

I'm only human and with exams rapidly approaching, I am struggling to find motivation! 

I am susceptible to fall into the deep trap of comparing myself with others and I really need to remember that everything I do, I do for myself. After all, the world doesn't owe me a thing- I choose my own path. Someone else's success doesn't undermine your own...

So, as of late I am finding this quote VERY relevant...

So, never forget that life is not a competition and it'll be hard but we'll get where we're heading in good time!!!

We have to live our own lives and be the best that WE can be!!

(WOW, throwing in about 60 quotes there haha)

Completing your bucket list!

Hello, I hope everyone is enjoying their Easter holidays, I know I am enjoying the two weeks off!

During the holidays Eloise and I really wanted to tick something off of our endless bucket list so we chose to go to a pottery barn and paint our own pottery!

This was so much fun and I recommend every one of you has a go at this!

These were our designs, don't judge it was quite hard:

So, the next time you are planning your day and need something really exciting and different to do, give this a go because I promise you won't regret it. Plus you get to keep the pottery you have made as a memory to look back on! 

Afterwards, because we are definitely children at heart, we went to watch Zootropolis at the cinema. Can I say it was reeeeaaaalllllllyyy good! And very funny as well! I recommend doing this also.

Put these two activities together on the same day and you have an awesome and unforgettable day out!

The Perfect Gym Playlist

So, we all know that the secret to a successful workout is to have tunes blasting that really get you going. 

For me, I am much more willing to go hard at the gym if I have music that i want to listen to. And they have to be high tempo songs (because how are you going to work up a sweat if you are blasting Photograph by Ed Sheeran?)

These are the songs that get me through a well deserved gym sesh:

1. Love On Top - Beyoncé

2. Lemonade- Danity Kane (feat. Tyga)

3. Trap Queen- Fetty Wap

4. Truffle Butter- Nicki Minaj (feat. Drake & Lil Wayne)

5. Time Of Our Lives- Pitbull & Ne-yo

6. Bitch Better Have My Money- Rihanna

7. Confessions, Pt 2- Usher

(my fave!!)

8. Shut Up And Dance- Walk The Moon

9.Post To Be- Omarion (feat. Chris Brown & Jhene Aiko)

10. Coffee- Miguel (feat. Wale)

11. Light It Up- Major Lazer (feat. Nyla & Fuse ODG)

12. All My Friends- Snakehips (feat. Tinashe & Chance The Rapper)

13. Touch- Pia Mia

14. Try Me- Jason Derulo (feat. Jennifer Lopez & Matoma)

15. Do It Again- Pia Mia (feat. Chris Brown & Tyga)

17. I Don't Mind- Usher (feat. Juicy J)

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day!! I hope you have all had a lovely day, celebrating with your family and I hope your mum enjoyed her presents :P

Struggling??

Mother's day is coming up and lets face it, our mums deserve the world! They are always there for us, we can talk to them about anything and they provide us with the best entertainment with all the stupid things they say and do! Honestly, my mums attempt at singing could put a smile on my face instantly :)

So, hands up if you are struggling with plans to make your mother's day amazing...here are some fun, easy and creative ideas that will bring tear of happiness to your mum's eye...

1. A jar filled with 52 notes, your mum can open 1 a week for the entire year. You can write thankyou notes, what you love about her or just things that would make her day. I did this for my mum one year and she absolutely loved it, she cried at every note she read!

2. A now and then photo. You can find a photo of your entire family or just you two when you were little and recreate the photo. It would be amazing to see the difference and would always give you something to look back on when you are older...you can even do it every mother's day to see how much you have change over the year!

3. Now this one, I personally wouldn't do but that is just because I can't stand cleaning! You can give her a week off of housework, everything your mum normally does, you do. This means she can sit on the sofa with her feet up, watching her favourite soap, without a worry in the world!

4. Record a message to your mum on her phone and set it as her ringtone. Every time she gets a call, she will be reminded that you love her and how grateful you are for everything she has done, it will bring a smile to her face.

5. And the easiest, but definitely my mum's favourite present...let her have a lie in and make her breakfast in bed!

I hope this gives you some ideas and that you have a fab day on Sunday,

Kirsty

Leo DiCaprio

As I'm sure you have all heard, Leo has FINALLY won his Oscar for best actor and I am probably the happiest person on earth right now!!!

I mean it's about time he won the damn thing...

 (Look at him white knuckle that thing!!)

I have a very soft spot for him and i think that he is just the best... especially for all his charity work, his A* acting in The Revenant (if you haven't seen it yet I would recommend you do!) and well, for just him being him!

Now, he may be my bae, but I am sad that the Oscar memes now have no relevancy. #sadface

However, I think we should bring it back one more time for old times sake so, here are my faves.

And my all time favourite...

So here we have it, the best Leo DiCaprio Oscar memes!
