5 favourite things about Christmas | BLOGMAS 2014

5 favourite things about Christmas | BLOGMAS 2014

We all got those special things we love about Christmas, so I thought I'd share mine. 

First thing on my list 
Cake!! I love making Christmas cakes, in fact I've already made some! I like making cakes in general but Christmas ones are better because you can put loads of decorations on. 

Second is decorating the Christmas tree 
My mum has an obsession with putting loads of stuff on the tree so it looks crazy, but I love it!! 

Next is chocolate! 
I eat way too much over Christmas! 

Family time 
The only time I really enjoy family time, purely because everyone is happy! 

Home Alone 
Best Christmas film ever! Everyone has to agree! I'm sure we've all seen it? 

That's my top 5, what are yours? 

Merry Christmas!

November Favourites

November Favourites

How quick has this month gone!? But thankfully this month the tables have turned and luck is finally on my side! Anyway, things I've been loving this month. 

Muller Corner Yoghurts 
I think I have a thing for yoghurts at the moment, I had the Munch Bunch one in my last favourites! I'm sure we've all tried them and I know they're really old. 

Ricky Rayment 
He's been my crush for the past month. I have a big thing for men with beards and his is very on point. For those of you who don't know who he is, he's from a British programme TOWIE. 

I'm a celebrity get me out of here 
Again, an English programme (do any other countries have this?) it only started halfway through the month but I love it! 

My new job! 
Apologies for the hideous photo. But I got a job within the NHS and it's amazing, the people are so great and the job is confusing but amazing. 

Motivation 
This probably doesn't count but all I seem to have done this week is collect loads of motivating pictures. I'm trying to be the best I can possibly be (cringe, that's my old high school motto) finally I've found something I want to do and I've got a direction I want to go in! Only 3 years late haha. 

My bed 
I know you'll all probably think this is not a favourite but let me explain! This past month has been so busy with horses, family commitments and battling 3 jobs at one point, I've literally had no time to sleep. I cannot survive without a decent amount of sleep so it's been so hard being apart from my bed for so long each day, because of this I've been ill for the past 2 weeks! :( so now I treasure every moment I get haha - sad I know. 

One Direction 
I forgot how good they were! I saw them on Children in Need (British again) and it just reminded me of what I've been ignoring, they've all turned so attractive and the music they make now is perfect! 


That's all for my favourites this month. Sorry none of them were particularly new but as I said I've been so busy I've not actually had time to explore the world! Next month should be better because my life will be much more settled! (Hopefully) 

What're your favourites? Also if you've done a favourites post leave it in the comments and I'll check it out! 

Thanks for reading! :)

My week in pictures | 30th November 2014


Sorry I didn't upload this last week, I only ended up with about 2 pictures so I thought I'd include them in this. 


New job!! 

My little sister seems to find it funny to take the most unattractive photos on my phone. 


Throwback Thursday. Miss this pony so much!! 

I spent a good few hours playing this with my niece and nephew haha - boring I know. 

Life now is so different from last year. 

Fave

5 Tips to Living a Happier Lifestyle

5 Tips to Living a Happier Lifestyle

I'm not saying I'm the happiest person in the world and I'm not suggesting that these work for everyone but they are what's working for me.

So here's my top 5 tips to living a happier lifestyle. 
(In no particular). 

ONE
Being healthier.
Now I don't mean being a gym freak. I just mean getting a decent amount of sleep each night (I aim for about 8 hours - where possible). 
Then I'd say drink more water, maybe its just me but I always feel better if I drink water over juice or fizzy drinks. 
Laying off the junk food a little, not loads, start off with saying no to one a week. I always eat junk food so I'm not trying to sound perfect haha. 

TWO
Remove negative people from your life.
They're the main thing that bring you down - I've learnt from experience. 
There's no point being with people who don't truly make you happy. 

THREE
Cut down on technology. 
Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, etcetera, are so depressive and boring. People only use them to show off how good their life is. We waste so much of our lives on our phones and laptops which can't be healthy! 
Try cutting that out for maybe an hour or 30 minutes an evening, depending on your lifestyle. 

FOUR
Regularly do a hobby.
We all have things we enjoy right? 
Football, Judo, painting, writing, sky diving, volunteering, basketball, whatever interests you, do it! It'll be a nice break from your usual activities. 

FIVE
Take time to relax. 
Have a nice bath, read a book, go for a walk or listen to music are all great ways of relaxing. I find the best time to do this is just before going to bed as it helps to sleep too! 


And there we have it, my 5 tips to living a happier lifestyle. What would yours be?

What's in my bag?

What's in my bag?

I've been thinking of doing this for awhile so I thought now would be a good time as it's currently really full and needs emptying!! God knows what we will find! Let's go. 
My bag is from New Look and its huge so I'll warn you now this post may be quite long. I love the gold pattern on the front. 
It's just has one main compartment with a little phone bit and a little zip inside. 

Just take a second to admire the amount of rubbish that's on top!! Oh god. Right I'll just pick out some random stuff. 

We've got a headband thing for when it gets cold at the stables. My purse, some moisturiser, a random pallet of eyeshadow which I don't even use (it's from Halloween I think) and some toothpaste which also has a toothbrush in because you never know when you need to brush your teeth! 

I should have looked through before I started this! I've so much rubbish haha. Right so there's my book at the top, body fragrance, hand gel, nail varnish, a hairbrush which I've never used (I might need it one day), headphones, cards that should be in my purse, lipstick and razors because you never know when you need to shave?! Haha that's a joke, I bought them the other day and never took them out. 

Yummy I found food! Sorry, right, there's my sunglasses, 2 subway straws, more hand gel, a Capri sun, 2 chocolate rolls, a Mr Kipling slice (currently eating), a mirror, a hair grip thing, a gold bar and my iPhone 3GS that I use as a iPod. 

2 pens, hair bands, yet another subway straw, my headphones case, a lolly, my old skating booklet (which is ruined from being at the bottom of my bag), my car keys, old work keys, 2 free coffees from McDonald's, and my bloody Wii remote!! I've searched everywhere for this, now I can watch Netflix again! 

Then in the little pockets I had, 2 lip balms, paracetamol, plasters, bobby pins, my ankle bracelet, and another pen. 
And finally, the biggest amount of rubbish  ever!! That's so disgusting, but it hasn't actually been in my bag long I promise! Haha. Sorry about the lighting, I'm not a photographer and nor do I want to be. 

What's in your bag?
