My top 5 2014 memories

2014 has been a whirlwind of a year and I cannot wait to enter a new year and start completely afresh. Sometimes you can find that when you look back on what you've done for the past year you only think of the bad, well instead of dwelling on that I'm going to think of all the positive things that have happened and I think you all should too, conjure up your top 5 things that have happened and spill it into a blogpost!

1. Passing my driving test
When I was learning to drive I was really unconfident and it got to the point were I thought I was never going to pass! When my driving instructor said he was moving to Canada 4 weeks before my test and then got told by new instructor he didn't think I was ready and was going to pass made me even worse. On my driving test my examiner made small talk with me and so I asked him if he enjoyed his job, when he replied with no I thought oh dear he most defintley wont be passing me! When he turned around and said I had passed first time I was shocked and couldn't be happier. my confidence has grown so much, I've driven to london a few times and am planning on doing a longer journey soon!

2. I went on Holiday
In June I went on my first girly holiday and it was amazing, i wont talk about this too much as I've already spoken about it quite a bit and don't want to bore you all! We spent most of the time drinking, sleeping and laughing, we came back with the most pathetic tan haha I wouldn't change a thing though I loved it so much and we have both said we would go back! 





3.turned 18
Also in June I turned 18, for my birthday I went to TGIFridays for a meal and it was super yummy! I went to Thorpe park the day before and that was so fun, I love theme parks even though I do get scared before I got on roller coasters! I really enjoyed my birthday and love being 18, so fun being able to go out drinking (I don't have drinking problems I promise!) or being fancy and having a glass of wine with dinner! I don't want to get older I want to be 18 forever please. 






4. Qualified beauty therapy
In may I Finished my beauty therapy college course, as much as I thoroughly enjoyed it I was so happy when I had finished. So nice to have finally passed and can now say I am qualified in both level 2&3! I now work at a salon and its so lovely meeting new people and chatting away to clients, always something to exciting happening!


5. Made new friends
Over the past year I have made some amazing friends, from the salon and through other people. The girls from the salon are so lovely and we all get on so well, I am so lucky to have met them and have them in my life! One of my best friends Kieran I met in the summer and we clicked instantly, we always have such a laugh when we do stuff together and he has been there for me through a lot of tough times! 





I have really enjoyed writing this post, it keeps you positive and makes you realise all the good things in life. 

Thank you so much reading
Love

Time changes everything

Hi everyone, hope your all okay! Its been a while since I've posted anything and lots of things have changed. I've been meaning to write this post for ages but have been so busy I've haven't had the time!




About 4 months ago I got a job in a salon and have been really enjoying it. I was so lucky as I managed to get it before I left college, so it meant I was settled and wouldn't be in a panic at the end! It was scary to begin with, meeting new people, getting used to their way of doing things and most of all doing treatments on real life paying customers! I cant believe how quick it has gone as I feel like I only just started there yesterday!



I then in June went on my first girly holiday with no parents. This was such an eye opener to all the freedom you can have and just life in general! We stayed in a hotel in Ibiza and were all inclusive. It was so lovely we both had such a good time, I definitely want to go back there at some point! We met some amazing people and had a bit too much to drink on some nights haha!




 With all that excitement unfortunately there has to be something not so good, me and my boyfriend of 2 1/2 years broke up recently. This has been a really tough time for me and I know its going to be a while until it feels okay. This was my first real love and even though it didnt end on the nicest of terms I dont regret anything, its a part of my life and it makes me who I am today. Unfortunately these things do happen but you just carry on and surround yourself with the people who mean the most, this is what I have found to be the best thing to do. I've found it difficult to even feel like blogging at the moment which is such a shame as its always been something I've enjoyed! fingers crossed I will start getting back into it, even if its just once a week, I've missed all you lovely lot!

TAG: Confessions of a beauty blogger

So I was scrolling through one of my favourite blogs and came across this tag. Life has been so hectic lately so I haven't really had time to do any blog posts so hopefully for now this will do and during Christmas I will be able to get some more beauty posts up!

1. How many hours a week do you spend writing / editing posts?
It depends on what I'm doing, if I'm on a break from college then I try and do a few posts during the week and then schedule them to come up during the month. If I'm at college then sadly not many posts get written!

2. Are you a spender or saver?
Hmm, Now I would like to think I'm a saver but in reality I really think I'm a spender! I try my best to save money but it always seems lately at the end of the month I'm left with no money!

3. When is it easier for you to blog? 
When I have lots of free time, I hate trying to rush a blog post. I like to blog mainly when I have days of from college and work.


4. What makes writing behind a computer comfortable for you? 
Not too sure how to take this question but for me I have to be in comfy clothing so some jogging bottoms and in a comfortable chair or my bed. 

5. What is your worst make up / hair habit? 
I know everyone will moan at me but I have been so bad for forgetting to take my makeup off lately! I know it's awful but I just can't seem to remember/ have the effort. For hair I would say I often forget to use heat protection, Eeek!

6. What is one quote you wish the world lived by? 
"Treat others how you wish to be treated" This is a quote that I try and live my life by..

7. How long do you spend getting ready every day? 
If I'm just going out to town or work then probably about 30 minutes, If I'm going to a party I like to leave myself an hour. I love pondering around doing nothing when I'm getting ready! haha 

8. Who's your favourite blogger?

Ooo there are far to many to name! To name a couple I love essiebutton and sineaddreamingagain. 

9. Who is a blogger that you think deserves more subscribers than they have?
I really thing Couturegirl so should have some many more followers then she does, her blog posts are fantastic! 


10. What is one thing you are excited about in the upcoming year?
Finishing my college course and hopefully getting into the beauty world! 

11. What is you most awkward blogging moment?
Erm, I can't say i really have any, well not that I can remember. One thing I hate is when I spell something wrong in a blog post!

12. How long does it take you to prepare a post?
If I'm taking pictures and trying to be fancy with my writing then probably about half a day, If I'm writing a tag then about 30 minutes to an hour. 

13. Are you wearing trousers right now or jogging pants / PJ bottoms?
I am currently wearing the most comfiest jogging bottoms from matalan!

14. What are you most proud of in life?
To some it may seem like nothing, but at the start of last year I was doing my A-levels. About a month in I realised I had been pushed into doing them by teachers and that I really hated what I was doing. So I rang up a college I had applied to and asked if they had any places left and luckily they did, I had to join a class of about 20 girls who had already got to know each other, I was so scared! I'm so glad I did it though, in case any of you are wondering I took beauty therapy in college. 

I tag: ALL OF YOU!
I found this blog post on DreamingAgain.

Thank you so much for reading!
