I Want To Go To Italy!

Hello you beautiful people!

As you may have read from my last blog, I am hopefully going to university this September to do a full-time course which will require having to live on campus. This obviously means I won't get to see my family, friends or boyfriend as often as I would like *sad face*. 

So I have been constantly searching for somewhere to go on holiday with my boyfriend to spend some 'alone time' before departing for uni! Isn't Italy like the perfect place?! It's so quaint and pretty, and such a romantic city. Here are a few pictures (that are not  mine, I found them on google) that I caught my eye when searching images of Rome/Italy. 

It is ridiculously amazing and I would LOVE to go, hopefully I will be able to save enough so we can both go and spend some quality time together :) we have both already decided that we want to go on an exploration holiday rather than spending 1-2 weeks by the pool, and with the number of places to go and things to do in Italy it was instantly the place we both want to go!

this is it from me for now, I'll speak to you again soon!

Lots of love,

Daily Vlogging!?

Hello you beautiful people!

Here's a crazy idea.. I want to begin daily vlogs!

Since stumbling across the fascinating world of YouTube in 2007 I have always, always, always wanted to create videos but being at the age of only 11, the ideas I had were far from reality. Over the years this idea of creating and uploading videos to YouTube has evolved enormously, as well as coming back down to the reality of what can actually be done.

I thought about uploading a weekly video to a YouTube channel but after writing lists of ideas I do not think I am 'interesting' enough to do that, along with the fact that weekly fashion/beauty/routine videos aren't my forte. So I've come to the conclusion of doing short videos around 10 minutes each every day whilst at university. 

I've chosen to do daily vlogs whilst at university to not only keep memories for myself and hopefully future mini me's, but also for the possibility of helping other people beginning university in September this year. Even more so if they have applied to do the same course as myself. I just think that it will be a fun opportunity to store the memories as well as the challenging times that lay ahead!

So on that note, I will hopefully see you in September over on my YouTube channel! But this is it from me for now, I'll speak to you again soon!

Lots of love,

Kitty Kisses!

Hello, you beautiful people!

I haven't blogged in a while for the reason that I have been VERY busy with both sixth form and work, I am sorry :( any way I was at my mum's house the other day helping her with her decorating and got very distracted with my cat - Ginge! So I thought I'd snap a few pictures and share them with you!

I know it may seem quite 'sad' and slightly weird blogging about my cat but I honestly cannot get over how loving and cute he is! *laughs* He's will be three in April this year so technically he is still a kitten (I almost typed puppy haha) and not only is he incredibly dopey, for example; running into door frames and trying to jump on to the window ledge but bumping his head on the bit protruding from the wall.. He is also such an adorable cat and always wants some kind of human attention! Whether it be a stroke of the tail or kisses like those above, he's so cute and had to be shared.

This is it from me for now, I'll speak to you again soon!
Lots of love,

P.S. Life's too short to wake up with regrets

An Amazing Surprise!

Hello you beautiful people!

So I'm not normally one for surprises, especially when people begin to try and wind you up about what is going to happen but not actually telling you the 'thing' that is happening.. Do you understand what I mean? It is so hard to explain! Like they would say "I know something you don't know" or similar which quite frankly, gets irritating! 

Anyway, since my dad lives over 300 miles away from where I live, I unfortunately very rarely see him around the holidays and with the postal prices nowadays he usually ends up transferring money into my bank account so I can buy myself something instead of buying me any presents and having to send them to me. HOWEVER! The christmas just gone I still hadn't received anything in my account after a few days, which seeing as I knew my dad was out of the country for christmas and new year, I automatically assumed he was waiting until he returned to the UK before transferring anything over. So obviously I just left it and thought nothing of it until one morning a few days into January, I recived a package.. 

AND THIS CAME!!

As I was opening the mysterious brown box it came in all I saw was the words MacBook Air and I started crying with happiness (I know I am pathetic!) I was actually shaking and crying!! I have wanted a MacBook of some kind for years now and over the past few months I have without a doubt been on the Apple Store reading reviews and the different things they can do every week. How my dad knew I have wanted one for so long I don't know!

I seriously love it, if you could be in love with a Mac, this would be living proof right here! The day I got it I just sat for hours doing nothing with it open, doing nothing.. All I wanted to do was be on it but I hadn't a clue how to use/work it!! *laughs* 

I am so very grateful and thankful to my dad for giving me one of the best surprises I have ever had! Even from miles away! This is something I will never forget and wanted to share with you guys..

This is it from me for now, I'll speak to you again soon!

Lots of love,

P.S Look for the answer inside your question

Get Up!

Hello you beautiful people!

I was scrolling through twitter this morning and my eye caught this picture

'Sometimes we can't stop ourselves from falling, but we can push ourselves to get up and try again.' I felt these few words speak a thousand more.. Different things happens each day that can both make and break us, wether it be something little or something big. You don't always have the power of preventing things from happening, however you do have the power of deciding how you're going to deal with it, and that is what really matters. Remain positive no matter how hard it may be at the time, in the future you'll look back and be proud of yourself along with being happier. 

This is it from me for now, I'll speak to you again soon!

Lots of love,

P.S If you want to fly, you have to give up the stuff that weighs you down

Monday Blues!

Hello, you beautiful people!

I am definitely feeling the Monday blues *sad face* today is the day most people go back to work or school and begin the 'norm' after having the last two weeks off to relax and celebrate Christmas and the new year. Of which I must admit I did what I planned.. NOTHING. I seriously needed these past two weeks to be nothing but laid back and relaxed, I felt so ridiculously stressed since giving back to sixth form in September and I am so not ready to get back into my routine.

Luckily I have had to Monday off due to it being a training day for staff at my school/sixth form but all day I have felt so miserable over the thought of getting up early every day and having to sit through tiresome lessons for another term.. I'm too lazy for this stuff! Haha. (Plus this Monday off allows me to catch up on the homework I should have done two weeks ago.. Whoops..)

Anyway, I hope you guys are feeling better than I am about getting back to normal and are much more optimistic than myself. I have set myself the aim of uploading a blog a few times a month, even if they are short and sweet like today's, it makes me feel better *smiles*

This is it from me for now, I'll speak to you again soon!

Lots of love,

P.S. Everyday is a second chance 

TAG

Hello, you beautiful people!

Today I thought I would do something a little different seeing as this is the start of a new blog, so wouldn't it be nice to know just a little bit more about me? Maybe! Maybe not! *laughs to myself* Anyway this are a few questions I found on Zoella's blog that she answered as a TAG.

What is your current fashion obsession? Chelsea boots - they're so comfortable and look great so win-win

What are you wearing today? A spotted white and black shirt, leggings and frilly socks!

What is your hair like today? I've not long had it cut actually so to me it feels VERY short, but other than that it's just straight, nothing special

What's the last thing you bought? Does lunch at sixth form count?

What are your essentials when travelling? Music 100%

What's your style? I have no style, it's literally whatever I throw on in the morning

What is your most challenging goal right now? Finishing my University application and actually getting into Universty

Finally...

Hello, you beautiful people!

For many many months, if not years I have pretty much dreamt of beginning a blog/vlog channel online after much inspiration from current bloggers and YouTubers such as Zoella, inthefrow, SprinkleOfGlitter, Tanya Burr, Niomi Smart and many more. So after creating my SECOND blog page, I have plucked up the courage to actually write a post, because it may seem like no big deal but to me, this is actually quite scary!

There is something about blogging and vlogging that I have enjoyed for such a long time now, so much so that I have wanted to try it myself. For a while I tried to come up with a 'theme' for my blog but after a lot of brain boggling I came to the conclusion of just going with the flow. I would much rather have a blog page full of my random rants, raves, loathes and loves with a range of subjects/categories compared to having to stick to a selected theme of beauty for example. (Not that I would be much help to the beauty lovers out there, that is for sure!)

Anyway. I honestly haven't even thought this first blog post out, I just decided that today is the day! I have just began typing and this is what has happened (not much). In actual fact, I did get my laptop out to do some revision for my A-Levels but procrastination has lead me here! I am hoping to do at least one or two blog posts a week depending on how motivated I am seeing as I am probably one of the most lazy people you will come across - as you will soon come to learn. Hence the reason it has taken me SO long to begin blogging. As I already said I haven't got a theme, so some posts may be right up your alley and you'll hopefully (fingers crossed) love, and others you may think a few naughty words because that is more than okay.

This is it from me for now, I'll speak to you again soon!

Lots of love,

toesontoast
