What better way to celebrate surviving two weeks of college then... Nando's! It was delicious, we ordered a lot of food since there was so many of us. We also ended up in Sutton Coldfield which is about an hour and a half away from where I live?? It was so good to just hang out with some friends and laugh. College has been really stressful, it's a lot harder, and it's a lot more hours. Despite having less lessons, the day is much longer, and the homework has been piled on since day one. On Wednesday I went to college, went straight to work, did my homework on my break, and then finished it when I finally got home from work at 11, slept and did the same thing again the next day. It's crazy, but i'm slowly adjusting. And the nando's wasn't half bad too. ;)

10 little piggies went to Jimmy Spices.
What a guilty little blogger I am, about a month ago we went out to eat for my cousins 18th. It was so nice and I couldn't wait to share it with you but the month of December has not been kind and I've been extremely busy! Mock exams left me with no time after revision and then just over a week ago my mom was rushed to hospital so after school I've been visiting her, but school's out now and fingers crossed so will my mom be tomorrow; just in time for Christmas! So I've got some spare time and lot's to share!
If you've never been to Jimmy Spices then you should stop what your doing and go now! Just kidding, but honestly it's so good there. It's a little expensive compared to a pub meal or your average buffet but it's definitely worth it. Because of how many of us there were we had to find somewhere everyone would eat, at Jimmy's there's so much variety no one's left hungry!
I mainly just ate pizza and chips (healthy, I know) but my mom and aunt all tried different curries and exotic foods the best part being if you didn't like it you don't have to eat it.
They have a mixture of oriental , Indian, European, middle east and American style foods.
You go pick your food, eat and then pick more food if you'd like!
The drinks there are just as great, you can order from a nice selection of cocktails.
I think my favourite part was the pudding, while the ice cream wasn't as great as other places they made up for it with their other deserts. There was different flavours of jelly, a lovely chocolate mousse, brownie and various cheesecakes. There all mini deserts as well so you can try them all without overeating or just grab more of what you like.
It's even open on Christmas day if you don't feel like cooking!
And in true Christmas spirit, mini mince pies! |

The only place better than the internet.
I would just like to clarify the only place better than the internet is a place that has internet, whoops.
Curled up in my duvet is where I belong. You can’t deny it we all feel that way sometimes. There’s something about my home that’s very appealing. It could be my family (when they wanna be nice), my mom who provides me with comfort and security. Or my sister who (unknowingly) hives me unlimited outfit choices and gives me someone to moan at when I’m moody. (I apologise.) Either way it wouldn’t be the same without them.

It also wouldn't be the same if it wasn't warm. I know, I know. It sounds weird, but you don’t really want to be distracted from the latest episode of 90210 because of chattering teeth. Do ya now? This isn't always understood by my mom because of heating bills-whoops!
Then if that isn't enough take a few (exhausting but) short steps upstairs and you’ll find my bed, where the magic happens. By magic I mean blogging, instagram stalking and excessive supernatural watching. Duh.
If I'm being completely honest though the most exciting thing about it is the food, haha. The smell of spaghetti bolognese or roast dinners that wafts from room to room is sensational, but actually eating the food... That’s even better. My house is the best umbrella, if it stars to rain we can all head to mine and play just dance.Most of all though you shouldn't forget, home is where the wi-fi is.
