Prom

A week ago tomorrow night, was my prom night! It was amazing. I got my hurr did, and my makeup done for it, and I felt like a princess. I was crazily excited for prom, and it was exactly what I expected it to be. Everyone was dancing, and taking pictures all night and it was perfect. We had it at the motorcycle museum, and there was a red carpet, and a filming crew. We went in a range rover evoke, and holy moly was it nice!  Because our school are part of a tv program so that was kinda weird! We had a three course meal which consisted of soup, chicken with veggies and potatoes, and a meringue with ice cream and raspberry sauce. It was delicious. I had an open evening at college today and most of the girls were having their prom today or tomorrow, so if you've had/are having your prom I hope it was great/goes great. xo

What a photobomb in the background.

Selfie!

Desert.

Name cards, and mocktails. We were feeling super fancy! 

How napkins should be worn.

See that balloon? After this photo we went down stairs and hid so we could suck the helium out of them and sit down while our feet hurt.

With my form teacher! 

Concerts are my life.

If you've ever been to a concert, you will understand that the title isn't even an exaggeration. Unless, your not a concert person, but how is that possible. I haven't even been to that many concerts but I have already fell in love with them. 

I went to see Hollywood Ending about a week ago with Abbie, it was different to the McBusted concert, it was at the 02 Academy which is quite small if you're in Birmingham. There were three lines, and another guy was performing, so when we got there everyone was super confused. But it worked out fine in the end, and Abbie and I even met some really great people. 

The support act was Luke Towler and he was amazing (and cute), he sang to one of the girls we made friends with and I can't even describe it. I literally swooned and it wasn't even me he was singing too. 

We were stood near to the stage for Luke, and it was okay, but before Hollywood Ending came on we moved to the back near to the bar, and it was a much better view. Hollywood Ending were amazing too, Cameron took his shirt off and it was crazy. They also spat a lot of water everywhere, which was surprisingly not disgusting. 

As soon as it was over, I wanted it to start again, minus the crazy heat. 

This cutie can SING.

Swoon

20 Things To Do This Summer

Ahhh. Summer is here! PointlessBlog made a video saying he had twenty five things he wanted to do this summer, and he's going to document them all in a little book. We all know from this,and this post that I am a summerholic, so I made a list of twenty I would love to do this summer, since it's gonna be a long one (two and a half months!), and I'm going to document them in a journal full of details and photos, and on the blog of course! I need to start filling my Cath Kidston scrap book so I'm super excited to get going!

1. CONCERTS! This is key for the perfect summer, I went to one a few days ago but I'm not counting that, because the more the better! I think, I'm going to buy tickets to see some really cute guys with a few new friends I made at Sunday's concert. So look forward to that! 
2. BARBECUES. They are perfect, I may be having one for my birthday, which will be fun! Barbecues are a time for good food, good people, and (hopefully) good weather!
3. TAKE A RUN ON THE BEACH IN THE EARLY AM. I really want to do this when I go on holiday, a change of scenery will be perfect, and I really just want to watch the sunrise at the same time.
4. WALK UP BREAN DOWN. There is quite a big cliff? If that's what you would call it, where I am going on holiday. The first time I climbed it, I was too scared to enjoy it (i hate heights). So I want to do it again. 
5. WATER FIGHT. A little water never hurt no one, it's just really fun to soak people, and I have no idea why.
6. BUILD A FORT, EAT SWEETS AND WATCH MOVIES. So tumblr...
7. PICNIC AT THE BEACH. Food, sea, and sand. All the best things in one! 
8. SEE A PLAY AT A THEATER. I live near Stratford (if you even know where that is), and it's the birthplace of Shakespeare. They usually show plays in theaters there, and I would really love to see one.
9. GET A JOB. For the dollar, dollar bills.
10. GO CAMPING. I am a happy camper, everything about it is exciting to me.
11. DO SOME LATE NIGHT BOWLING. Bowling is fun, late night bowling when it's lit up and there's no kids, is so much funner.
12. SPA DAY. Because a girl needs to look after herself, right! 
13. RUN 3 MILES. It took me like 6/7 minutes to run a mile, three can't be that hard. (Fingers crossed.)
14. MAKE LEMONADE. So pinterest...
15. READ A BOOK FRONT TO BACK IN ONE SITTING. I've done this before, but there's one in particular I want to read.
16. NURTURE A PLANT. I'm starting college soon, I am practically an adult! So I want to try my responsibilities. 
17. TRY SUSHI. I have no idea why I want to do this so bad, food on a conveyor belt just seems cool. And who's never tried sushi before anyway, just me?
18. TAKE A PICTURE EVERYDAY AND MAKE A FLIPAGRAM AT THE  END. So Instagram...
19. TIE DIE SOME OLD SHIRTS. Because how freaking cool would that be!
20. READ GOSSIP MAGAZINES WHILE LAYING OUT. Because who wouldn't enjoy this? Grab a deck chair while I am at the pool, and chill, with the gossip. 

Currently...

LISTENING  
To Hollywood Ending, I went to see them in concert on Sunday and i'm loving them!
EATING
A belvita breakfast biscuit and some chopped up cucumer and carrots. Prom is coming and I'm committing to healthy food day and night, I've lasted a week so far which is crazy. I'm going to pizza hut for a friends birthday the day after so I have reassurance that me and greasy fast food will soon be reunited!
DRINKING
Water! I've swapped my coke bottle for a water bottle. I know, I know, I was shocked too. 
WEARING
My pajamas! I got dressed this morning, and then when I got in from shopping I put them on again! I have two months of summer, and I can't wait to spend them blogging in my pajamas.
FEELING
Nostalgic! I've been super nostalgic recently since I finished year 11,  I've seen a more than a few cringe worthy year 7 photos in year books and also I'm just a little upset I'm leaving school. My teachers have pulled out all the stops and made it really special. I definitely have many happy memories, but it's time to move on! 
WEATHER
The weather is perfect! It would be exam season when the sun decided to resurface... Typical! On Friday I went to a park with the whole of my year group and I ended up getting sunburnt, it was bad.
WANTING
The impossible instalab for iphone, you put your iphone on it and it prints a Polaroid version! It's an alternative for a polaroid camera, and you can choose the perfect picture before printing. Since everything Polaroid is so freaking expensive, how did cope before digital? 
NEEDING
A new Supernatural episode! I'm missing Misha, Jensen and Jared so much, just come back to my screen already. I will be watching whose line is it anyway, and I am very excited.
THINKING
Nothing. Literally. I do have one exam left, but I'm not stressing! 
ENJOYING
Life! Despite school being one big stress, it's also super fun. I'm enjoying the sun, and all the end of year get togethers. June has been and still has to come lots of events, which I am really enjoying. 

What are you currently enjoying?

June goals.

While it is true, June is over two weeks in. I am finally writing my goals post. Exam season is nearly over, I have finished 13/14 exams and finally finished school for good (which is surprisingly scary). So now my 'school' goal is over is time to focus on a new, shorter lived one. (Which is good because I have a feeling it's gonna be a harder one as well.) But first let's take a look at May.

MAY 
I have some major exams coming up this month so the month of May is perfect to set myself some educational goals. I need to start taking school more seriously, because I get average grades I've never really pushed myself to do better, but it's about time I do!

SUB GOALS

• Attend every day of school in May. I'm such a bad cookie when it comes to actually going to school (by this I mean I have 'sick' days probably once a month, not that I just don't go) but these next few weeks are going to be crucial. 

I attempted this, I had two days off in the first two weeks of June, because I had no exams and ten study periods, which I was getting nothing done in!

• Speak up. This one sounds kind of stupid, but I am 'that student' who never puts her hand up and never contributes unless forced to. I want to start involving myself more and contributing to class once a day (which is a big thing for me) whether its just answering a question, or reading out a passage etc.

I didn't even attempt this one to be honest, I just listened and took notes. No speaking occured.

• Stick to my revision timetable. This means studying for at least 2 hours every night and at least 4 on Saturday and Sundays, this one is gonna be my hardest I think. Plus I have a lot of social things going on this month, so if I stick to this then I won't feel so guilty about going to parties or concerts (or watching honey boo boo)! 

I was a tad ambitious, I did do a sufficient amount of revision. I was swamped with work. But, I didn't revise every single day, I probably only revised 3/4 times a week. It's still a lot more than I did before though!

• Let things go. This might not sound like it has anything to do with school, but everyone is stressed out this and so many friendship groups in my year and feeling the blow (mine included). At least until my exams are over I'm going to take everything with a pinch of salt, it's so much easier to move past things then it is crying over them for days, and thinking about them constantly. Which I am certainly guilty of doing. I need to be super focused this month, I won't even go there after June 13th so who even cares! 

It's June 14th and guess what I don't go to this school anymore! This is my most successful sub goal. In the past few weeks, there has been many arguments and a lot of fights, verbal and the hair pulling kind. (teenage girls ay?). I stayed out of the drama though and I am so glad!

JUNE

The month of June is also the start of my summer! I want to make these goals very strict, since I only have to stick to them for two weeks, but I only have three sub goals this month. I decided for June i'll make some fitness goals. Everybody loves being healthy, right? For the first two weeks of June, I've been testing the waters and it's proven to fairly easy if I actually try so let's get stuck in!

SUB GOALS

• Eat 100% healthy meals 6 out of 7 days a week. It's only six because, a girl needs chocolate once a week, and there's nothing wrong with a treat now and again!  I'll be sticking to salads and vegetables instead of chips/rice or any other of the sort. I mention rice because the only kind of rice I like, is very fatty and oily. Then I'll accompany the veggies with a source of protein, like lean beef or egg whites. I'll also be eating fruits, hopefully this will give me chance to find new healthy recipes that I can enjoy in later months. 
• Workout every day. This will be my hardest goal! I want to get in about 45 minutes of cardio a day with some sort of targeted strength training for 30 minutes a day. I will probably alternate between butt, abs, arms and legs. Since I've finished school now, there's no excuse!
• Drink 8 glasses (or more) of water a day. I am very much a soda drinker, this month though i'll be sticking to water! 

I'm excited to start my goals! I'll be documenting meals, measurements, workouts on the blogilates app and then in my July goals post! Wish me luck!

What are your goals for the month of June?
