Xmas Decs

Heyy! So today my good friend Imogen gave me the idea for this post...Thankyou!! I am going to show you some of my Christmas decorations that are up in my  house, I hope you enjoy and sorry for the poor photography, I rushed it!

Only 18 days left to go :D

This is our Christmas tree! As my mum looovvveesss Christmas she makes sure her tree looks beautiful! We have a tradition of decorating the tree with red and silver tinsel, lights and baubles and we have always put this star on the top. Putting up the Christmas tree has always been one of my favourite Christmas activities so as soon as it is acceptable to put it up, I make sure I do!

Every year, my street end up being really competitive when it comes to Christmas lights (even if no one wants to admit it!) It is a well known fact that my street goes mad and it is always the brightest street around! 

We have this display of teddy bears (invented when Immy?!) and they are so cute! We have all animals, ranging from penguins to rabbits and they are always put on the dining room windowsill...I know we sound kinda mad!

This is the Christmas tree that is in my bedroom and it is the prettiest tree I have ever had in there. It is a pop up one so it is super easy to put up, although the lights are an absolute pain! It is white and it comes with pink and gold baubles that are so cute, this tree is definitely my fav! 

Lastly, on our fireplace, we hang our stockings which is such a traditional thing to do! We have never done this before but this year we decided to and I must admit it looks really pretty! My stocking is the teddy bear one and I have had it since I was born, I love it! The small one in the middle is my dog's, don't judge, she deserves presents too!!

I hope you enjoyed and now you should go and decorate your houses until your neighbours think you are Christmas mad!

A Little Bit About Me!!

Hi...

After Kirsty's post, I thought perhaps that I should do the same thing because right now I am procrastinating revision for a Chemistry mock tomorrow and I love you guys all too much!! 

So. here's my post-quel, (trying to make prequel into post and I don't think it worked, haha), mini Q&A... 

Things I cannot leave the house without

Well, I usually leave the house with nothing, depending on where I'm going, and if I do, I just shove it in my pockets. If I'm only popping out and I know I won't be long, then I won't bring anything. Although, if I am going to a friends I most definitely will take my phone. So, it would have to be my phone I guess.

Favourite flowers??

This question is so hard for me because I absolutely love flowers!! I always have a bunch of flowers in my room- they're mainly roses though. I must say, I absolutely adore Sweet Peas as they remind me so much of my Great Grandmother. They smell so gorgeous and come in truly beautiful colours. I really don't know... all of them?!

I'm really not doing well so far...

Heels or flats?

HEELS. Heels for sure. I absolutely love them and not just because they make me look taller. It is so fun to go shoe shopping and I particularly shop for heels, even though I hardly ever have the opportunity to wear them. I have to admit, I've already got my prom shoes... and I don't even have my dress yet!!!

Do I get good grades?

I think so... it depends on what counts as good. For me, I don't like to go on about the grades I get because all that matters is the effort that is put into the work that you do. If you care and genuinely try hard then you will do well. I particularly don't like the feeling of knowing you didn't do as well as you could have and not being satisfied with myself, so I try to avoid that feeling at all costs by doing well.

Do I eat fries with a fork?

It really depends which situation I'm in. If I'm at a restaurant then yes. If I'm around people I'm comfortable with then no.

Any phobias?

Snakes. Dying when I'm not ready. No more cake.

Have I ever had near death experience?

Not that I can recall... I'd like to think that I've been very much alive for 15 years!!

Do I bite your nails?

Not any more!! I used to and it used to be really bad. Really bad. But after realising that it was disgusting and understood how bad it actually hurt, then I tried so hard to stop it. I used nasty tasting nail polish and putting bangles on my wrists so they would make a noise when my hands were moving towards my mouth. And it actually worked!! I love my nails now and I can't even imagine biting them now. Ewww.

Am I into ghost hunting?

Ummm... NO WAY!! Ghosts scare the living daylights out of me, why would I want to hunt them?? Please ghosts leave me alone, I've done nothing wrong. However, I do believe that people watch over us, as in our loved ones. But whether they are ghosts or not I have no idea??

Last thing that made me cry??

Actually, it was earlier today when See You Again came on the radio. I always cry when I hear the song because it makes me think of Paul Walker and it makes me very very sad. I don't know why, it just does. And it's not even like a tear, it's like full on sobbing and a waterfall just floods out of my eyes... It's even making me sad now, so the last time I cried was now... Oh lord, why am I so emotional??

So, that was my mini Q&A. Now that I've done this I should really get on with some chemistry revision. Ugh. And I definitely agree with Kirsty, soon we shall do the TMI tag!! Stay tuned for that!!

Getting to know me...

Hello again!!! It's time for another Q&A so, I explored the Internet for the best questions I could find! Here goes...

1. Thing you can't leave the house without

I think my phone is the most important thing when I leave the house because without it I would be so lost! I know that sounds really bad, like I don't have social life but I don't care! 

2. Favourite flowers?? 

My favourite flowers have to be Daisies because they are so simple but so pretty and faultless. Or, I would have to pick red roses because they are like flower royalty! They are absolutely beautiful and if someone gave me one they would instantly be my favourite person!

3. Heels or flats??

I prefer flats like hightop trainers, mainly because I live in them for dance. But, on the odd occasion I love to wear heels even though I struggle to walk in them! 

4. Do you get good grades!? 

Most of the time I get good grades...fingers crossed that continues! 

5. Do you eat fries with a fork?

NOPE... Who's got time for that! I normally eat them with my fingers but if I was at a restaraunt or at someone's house I would be polite and eat them with a fork.

6. Any phobias?

My phobias are planes (Eloise would laugh at me for saying that!) 

7. Have you ever had a near death experience?

Not really, but once I was walking along the pavement and this car nearly ran me over! I don't think the driver was looking where he was going and he just carried on driving straight into me! Luckily, he stopped just in time but it definitely gave me nightmares for a week!!

8. Do you but your nails!

I don't really but when I am bored I find myself biting them! It's not like a habit though because I don't constantly do it... And they are in really good shape even though I sometimes bit them!

9. Are you into ghost hunting? 

Umm NO WAYY!!!! that stuff freaks me out so much, it makes me feel sick! Once Eloise and I were talking about doing a ouija board and I thought I was going to throw up!

10. Last thing that made you cry?

The last thing that made me cry was my mum but let's not get into details! 

Hope you enjoyed this Q&A and hopefully now you feel like you know me a bit better! Maybe soon Eloise and I will do the TMI tag so stay tuned!

Love, Kirsty

Love, Rosie

Hello everyone!

 Its Monday again, how does it come around so quickly?! We all need a pick me up and I truly recommend watching Love, Rosie xx

Now, I don't want to ruin it all for you so I am not going to tell you exaclty what happens! But, lets just say it is one of the cutest films I have ever seen!! It is a definite must watch!

I watched this movie with Eloise for the first time on Halloween and I don't know how we have gone that long without seeing it... Your life will be so much better once you do! All the way though the movie, Eloise was saying 'goals' 'goals' 'goals' and I must agree, it is become my life goal to have a relationship as good as the characters do in Love, Rosie! They are so cute!

Watch it now...otherwise I will be very upset! I have only seen it once and it is already becoming my favourite movie <3

Sleepover Antics

Hi!

So, I am currently recovering from a case of sleepover hangover... but it was all for a good cause!! I've just returned from possibly one of the best sleepovers ever and now I can barely keep my eyes open, I guess that means it's okay to hold off on the homework for now then!! 

We went to our friend, Simran's house. And let me just say that her house is massive. And yes, we even made a fool of ourselves when we accidentally walked into her dad's bedroom when he was sleeping just trying to find her. It was so embarrassing but we think that he thought it was Simran! 

The first thing we did, after chatting for half an hour, was food. Her mum is so amazing at cooking- we had the best chicken masala chicken pittas and she managed to make cheesy chips in under a minute. No joke. The best part though was the waffles and ice cream!! 

I'm pretty sure we spent most of the night playing games (and taking selfies). And watching A Cinderella Story, because Beth had never seen it. I really don't know how you can be alive for 15 years and not have seen the movie- it has the cutest scenes in all movie history!

And at half 1 in the morning we thought it would be a good idea to practice some moves for prom and started doing the Cha Cha Slide and YMCA!?!

We all slept in the attic/ games room in true Sleepover Club style- all of us laid facing each other in a circle with a torch being the only source of light in the room. It was so cool..

Anyway, the night ended at roughy 3am for me, (and 5am for some *cough* Kirsty *cough*) even though there were some really good efforts to keep Beth and I awake...

It was such a fun night and I cannot wait for the next!

Winter Wonderland

Hello everyone!! Over the past couple of days our population has been in terrible distress so we need to be reminded of the great things about Winter! I hope you enjoy and please stay safe xxx

1. Snuggling up under a fluffy blanket with a lovely warm mug of hot chocolate, especially when it is absolutely freezing outside!

2. Hats, scarfs, gloves and of course fluffy socks!

3. Snow!! I mean who doesn't love the snow?

4. Being allowed to have a sofa day in your pjs, watching movies becasue it is acceptable ;)

5. Decorating your house with all things Christmasy! Christmas lights <3

6. It's the best time for food...and it's acceptable to eat all of it!

7. There is a chance that school could be cancelled because of snow! That idea is enough to cheer anyone up!

8. It's way too cold for bugs, mosquitoes and spiders to be around! Yay!

9. New year is coming up, parties, fireworks, food :)

10. And most importantly it is time for CHRISTMAS!!

Love to Paris

Hello everyone...

I am so saddened that this post is even being written but with everything that has happened in Paris, I would like to say there are no words to even comprehend how angry and downhearted I feel.

It was such a shock to hear what has happened and I am devastated by the unnecessary loss of 129 lives. It is so horrible to think that people have the ability to hurt someone so deeply and have the ability to inflict such a dreadful pain. Moreover, why? To spread a message? It's ruthless and inhumane. 

I am so sorry to anyone has been affected and I offer my condolences- but I think that this is a chance for everybody to pull together. To realise we are all better than this.

The world is becoming a scary place and we must all be strong.

So wherever you are, stay strong and don't ever give in to fear.

We love you all

Made In The A.M.

Hello everbody...

As you all know, Kirsty and I are MAJOR One Direction fans and we are elated that the new album has dropped today. 

And yes, we are devastated that the boys have decided to take a break for the next 2 years, but that was always expected and to be honest, they completely deserve it!!

But this album makes me so happy. The remaining 4 have done amazingly without Zayn and I am so proud of them.

I love how they break the mould and have gone down a completely different track- the album has a very different sound to their usual pop hits. It is definitely more chilled out- it is not as intense as previous albums, such as Midnight Memories.There are a lot of acoustic songs, which I think shows the talent of the boys more. It just shows the world how raw and angelic their voices are. Perhaps it mirrors the stage that the boys are in their lives at the moment. I think that it will, and has, made a mark on the music in the modern world.

I, and I'm pretty sure the rest of the fandom, died at the fact that Louis had a high note. I was walking down the road when I first heard it, on the way to school. And I must say, I must have looked like an absolute goon because I was grinning from ear to ear and I think I made a sound that really resembled a goat!! 

My favourite song is probably History, Temporary Fix, Never Enough, Walking In The Wind or Perfect!! I can't pick! Don't hate, but I seriously think that History sounds like a song that should be in High School Musical. And that is not a bad thing ( I LOVE HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL, even though I am 15, no shame)!!!! But if you asked Kirsty, she would say that her favourite song would be all of them... 

Today, I know that there is that whole Justin vs One Direction album battle but I seriously think that Made In The A.M. tops the charts!! 

I've really enjoyed this album but I know that the best is yet to come... so hurry up 2017!!!

The Walking Dead

Hello!!

This is going to be a quick post but it still a really one important one.

I recommend you stop exactly what you are doing and start watching The Walking Dead. It is so good that words cannot describe how hooked I am. Seriously, I started watching it a week ago and I am already on season 4!! I mean, i am sacrificing my GCSE revision here... 

It's one of those TV series that gets better with each season- it's like a fine cheese that matures with age. There is never is a dull moment. And yes, I may have to suffer watching it in poor quality on the internet but it is so worth it!! 

So, even though I haven't really told you anything about The Walking Dead, I hope that you pick up that remote and start watching it because you are really missing out!! 

DO IT!!!
