Fresh Start....

So this is my first post in a good few months and I think its safe to say hat I completely forgot about it, I've been super busy recently and I just hadn't had time to sit down and write what's been happening but now I've remembered I actually have a blog I really want to start using it again and almost reinvent it. I want to write about different things and interact with you guys that have taken the time to read my posts. A lot has happened since I last posted and I almost feels like I'm starting from scratch again. I don't know if the people who read my blog before will still read it now but I hope so. 

What I am asking is for you guys to help me write about content you want to read. After looking and past posts it looks like you like my book reviews so if you still want them let me know in the comments below and I'm going to try really hard to do a post once a week. 

I'm glad to be back! x 

Organizing Nail Varnish...

Good morning guys, so recently I have been trying to organize my room and one problem was my nail varnish. So I decided to get a big glass jar with a lid and put my best nail varnish's in so it looks a little better and tidier but also a little creative. I'll live the picture below, it was just a little idea that I thought you guys might like, if you have an other organization tips please leave them in the comments as I'm in need of some more!! Thanks for reading guys! Byyyeeee!! x

Healthy Breakfast Idea .....

Hey there guys, so today I thought I'd show you what I'm obsessed with eating for breakfast at the minute. It's healthy and filling, it also tastes delicious! It's really easy and quick to prepare... 

So I have in my bowl Greek yoghurt, Special K flakes the honey ones, strawberries, grapes and blueberries. I really love this and it makes me feel fresher and more awake after I've eaten it. It fills me up so I'm not constantly thinking of food and it's just very delicious and yummy. 

I would also recommend a smoothie to go with it or if your in a rush you could have it on the go, I've mentioned my smoothies in previous blog so you can go see that. That's all for now, thanks for reading goodbye! x

I'm so sick of school! ...

Hey guys, I'm so tired of school it's unreal! it's exhausting and today is my longest day of the week and it felt like forever. I had double art (that was good as I love art) but then it went downhill from there with English, double Biology (eugh!) and Chemistry revision. I never knew using your brain was so tiring and with me having an injury I can't train till I see the doctor next week which is very frustrating! But I've done a few drawings and watched my favorite film in the entire world.... Angus, Thongs and perfect Snogging! I absolutely love this film and always will, it cheered me right up and I just was very happy at the weekend because I made a cake with my little brothers so it was a family weekend. And then I had to go back to school which is just bleugh anyone else feel this way? It's also coming up to my exams so I'm starting to stress and feel so tired all the time I'm just fed up with it really so I had to rant somewhere and here is the place... my apologies... but I'm sure it will help me and you to know if we're in the same situation. I think that's all really thanks for listening to my rant about school, I'll see you next time goodbye x

United We Spy By Ally Carter....

Hey there guys, so as promised here is the second book review from the January books I read. Today's one is United We Spy by Ally Carter, if you read my 16th birthday post you may remember that I got this book for my birthday and yes it has taken me this long to want to read it because there are so many other books to read. But anyway, this book is the very last book in the series of The Gallagher Girls and I started the series a few years ago and thought I have to finish it and I have and I really enjoyed it! If you've never heard of the series, it's about a girl named Cammie and she goes to school at a spy academy and has lots of adventures. She lost her father when she was younger and wants to know what happened to him, she also meets a boy and lots of other things. There are six books in the series and average about 300 pages I think, I thoroughly enjoyed this series and there are lots of plot twists which shocked me and I fell in love with the characters and it's just a really good series. 

 

Thanks for reading this brief post but honestly I'd recommend you read it if you like this sort of stuff, I'll see you next time goodbye x

Severed Heads, Broken Hearts by Robyn Schneider....

Hey there guys, so as promised here is the first book review for this week, I read two books in January and I shall be doing the other book review this week. But to start of with I'm doing Severed Heads, Broken Hearts by Robyn Schneider, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. A lot of people say it's like John Greens books and I can see that point especially one of the characters (Cassidy).
The basic story plot to sum it up briefly is that there's a boy named Ezra and he has a friend called Toby, they've been friends for years, since they were children but as they grow up they become distant friends and eventually just people who pass in the corridor. Unlike Toby, Ezra becomes one of the popular kids and is on the tennis team and has a girlfriend (who isn't very nice!) and life seems good till he's in an accident and is crushed. His life is turned upside down and he finds out who his true friends are (is it obvious it isn't the popular ones?). Cassidy is new to the school and Ezra finds an attraction towards her and is very curious about her.

Toby and Ezra also become friends again and the adventure really starts here. Ezra experiences so many things by being with these new friends and Cassidy. That's all I'm telling you because I don't want to spoil it for you if you haven't read it but I highly enjoyed it and would read it again. I laughed and almost, but not quite, cried and it's just a really cute heart warming book to read and it's also not very long so you could whizz through it easily. If you like John Green I'm sure you'll love this. My favorite character has to Toby even though we didn't see as much of him as I would've liked I still loved him, I have a thing with female characters they can irritate me sometimes and Cassidy did slightly but it wasn't a lot just sometimes but I think that might have been just me haha.
My favorite part it this bit:

"Her flashlight flickered again.
FORGIVE ME.
This time, I didn't hesitate.
ALWAYS, I replied."

I just think it's so cute and adorable I just melted when I read it! I'm a soppy person but hey I love a good love story.

Thanks for reading and I hope you read this book! It's awesome!! Byeeee x

I'm still alive!! ...

Hey guys, so it would seem it been a very long time since I last blogged. A lot has happened since then, I raced at Boston and Won my first won and came 3rd in my second missed 2nd place by 2 seconds!! but I was very proud. I have also read quite a few books so this week I'm hoping to review them for you so you may be getting two or three posts from me this week so hopefully that makes up from me being MIA all month.So yeah that's all really, see you next time goodbye :) x

A very busy week....

Hey there guys, so this week has been very busy indeed. I went back to school and have been faced with coursework and homework galore! I've been training hard and preparing for the upcoming race and last night I went to see Union J perform with one of my best friends. It was an amazing night, and for those of you who don't know who Union J are they are a British boy band who were in the X Factor last year and my friend loves them. One sad note is that my camera broke towards the end of the show and with a lot of patience and trial and error I have finally fixed it! I have some pictures that I'll leave below, and the next post may be a book review on the book I'm almost finished with so look out for that, thanks for reading bye xx

Elyar Fox supporting Union J

Room 94 who were really good!

Union J!!

This is when they sang Skyscraper which was really emotional and amazing!

Smoothie Time!! .....

Hey guys, so today as part of my New Years Resolutions to get healthier I have been making smoothies and oh my gosh they are so nice and delicious!! If I hadn't of had a smoothie I would've ended up eating biscuits or chocolate so it's a big improvement and it tastes amazing! 

This is mine form today and I think I'm obsessed with them, this one has fresh and frozen strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and fresh Greek yoghurt. I don't like bananas which is why I never used to drink them or buy them from the shop because a lot of them have bananas in. This is also why I've opted to make my own so I can choose what to put in it, and it's not that expensive either which is great! So I definitely recommend you try it out if your on a health kick or just never tried them before. I also wanted to recommend a Youtube channel called TheLeanMachines they do loads of fitness videos with very good information and tips to use so definitely check them out. Thank for reading and I'll see you next time! bye x 

Looking For Alaska by John Green....

My Christmas pj's!! 

So over Christmas break I have manged to finish reading Angel Fire by L.A Weatherly I think and to read Looking For Alaska. I can absolutely say that I loved this book so much and it is incredible!! The story is thrilling and so funny, the thing about John Green is that he's not afraid to say what he wants to say so there's swearing and sexual references in there but that's what makes the book in a way. The character Alaska Young is obsessed with sex and drinking and smoking that your drawn to her and wonder why. The character Miles Halter (Pudge) who the book is written in the perspective of, is endearing and he knows he doesn't have any friends and it doesn't bother him until he chases the Great Perhaps. My favorite characters from this book was Chip (the Colonel), Alaska and Tukuni who had me in fits of laughter at one point in the book. I really love this book and would recommend to people who want a good story line and all the "feels" because there are happy parts, sad parts, romantic parts everything is in this book! But yes thank you for reading and I shall see you next time with another post Goodbye x

New Year, New Chapter....

As I can imagine many of you went out celebrating last night to see in the New Year, I on the other hand had a quiet one with my family and decided to have a little pamper night as I go back to school in a few days I wanted to savour the time I have left to relax. So I wanted to wish you all a very Happy 2014 and I wish you all the best of luck and hope good things happen to you all. I am excited at what the year will bring and ready to make some amazing memories but I'm also very nervous because I take my exams in less than around 3 months which petrifies me! But we all have to do it so I can only try my best, if your anything like me you set yourself high targets. So in most lessons I want to get an A which means if I get any less I can be pretty disappointed. My mum is so supportive and is happy at whatever result I get, by the way I usually get a C or above haha, but yeah school is a biggy this year and my form tutor just left and he was a great teacher and my form won't be the same. 

Anyway, New Year's Resolutions; I think that have a goal or something in mind that you want to achieve during the year is such a good thing to have because it keeps you focused and makes you want to do things instead of just floating along doing just enough to get by. I have decided that this year I have 5 New Years Resolutions that I want to try to achieve, 5 is quite a lot so I won't be disappointed if I don't do them all here they are...

1. Be Healthier
2. Study hard
3. Make Memories
4. Read More Books
5. Stay focused and to have a good year!

I think that they are easy enough to maintain throughout the year, it's not a dramatic change that will be difficult to do and I think that's important when making resolutions. If you make all these drastic and out of reach targets the chances are you won't do them but if you just say to yourself a few little things you maybe want to change or achieve this year I think you would be more likely to do them. 

I have also decided that I am going to set myself up to 3 targets a month of which I want to achieve for January I have....

1. Read at least 2 books
2. Train as much as possible 
3. Aim to win at Boston

Now for those of you who read my blog you may know that I go to a Rowing Club, for the last 15 months and have been competing in a few races. Well I have another competition at the end on January so which is in Boston, so I want to give my best and win it! :)  

These are just a few pictures form 2013, I have had such a good year with a few down but mainly ups and I hope you have too so thanks for reading and I hope to bring you many more posts in 2014! Also while I remember I haven't even been blogging for a year and I'm so close to 1000 page views which to me seems incredible. The thought that that many people have looked and read my blog and posts is incredible and very heart warming so a MASSIVE THANK YOU for all reading my blog and following me on Bloglovin it really does mean a lot to me. Happy New Year! x
