I am so terrible at keeping promises...

 As much as I've enjoyed my week off, I'm starting to get a bit fed up and restless now! I was in work for an hour before getting sent home because it was quiet today; I don't know what I'm going to do with myself if they can't offer me hours over summer!

I go to LJMU, which only has two semesters and so I finish for summer 29th March, and then go back late September. Which is 6 months off. This is such a long time, last 'summer', I spent the first 4 months looking for a job and being really skint, which wasn't very good at all! My best friend lives in Manchester, so it'll be good to go up for little holidays and nights out and shopping, and my friend from uni is staying in Liverpool over summer so I'll still be able to go up there!

I'm living at home for my final year of uni, so when I 'go back' in September, not a lot is going to change really! Even though I get a bit miffed about having to live with my parents at the age of 21, and missing out on things, it gets outweighed by the fact that I save so much money ready for when I graduate, this year is really important so I need to concentrate on work, and I actually hated living in halls this past year! Students seem to be under the impression that getting a student house is so much better than halls; but I really don't see how living in a mouldy shit-heap miles away from anywhere that not even the council want would be better than the flat I pay 100+ a week for, but that's just my opinion...

I've just been typing my thoughts over my blog this week which has been a nice way to unwind! I want to start uploading more pictures soon :) 

Going back to 'summer' (my 6 months of boredom), I've been thinking about re-re-re-re-re joining the gym and going back to Slimming World. As well as going on the sunbeds. Just to give me some little hobbies and make me feel better about myself! I think Slimming World is really effective; and I think that going to the meetings once a week and the fear of having 'put on', is enough fear struck in me to avoid food I shouldn't have! The gym thing will have to be seriously considered though, because the amount I have joined and not gone to in the past is ridiculous! I don't know what I think will be different this time.

Tonight I'm catching up with last weeks corries because I was in work and missed them! I'm also VERY concerned with the fact that Gossip Girl still hasn't been uploaded!? It must have had a break in America or something. I'm not happy.

I'm back :)

I've not blogged for the past couple of months, despite it being a new years resolution, because I've just been so 'busy'.
I was pretty lucky; I got a work experience placement at a make-up company, who wanted a blogger to blog for them! I was doing it for a fortnight, a few hiccoughs in regards to the web design aspect of it, but I really enjoyed it! It's a bit difficult because I started the blog from scratch and it has no followers; it's also not 'me', so I struggle to think of things to talk about. Anyway I had a couple of weeks off from that too because my uni workload has been pretty heavy at the moment!

 I have just submitted the last assignment for a while, and have, ahem, given myself the week off uni due to 'stress'.

Really looking forward to my week off at home in Wales, I feel like I haven't had much 'me time' recently, so It's well deserved! Over the course of the week, my aims are to:

• Find a program to obsess over. I might watch Secret Diary of a Call Girl from season 1. 
• Revise for my driving theory test, which is only a week away! (work-a-holic)
• Get back into my tanning routine. I'm so pale at the moment and the weathers starting to pick up!
• This seems silly for a week of relaxing...but, get hair, make-up, dressed etc everyday! I want to do nice things, maybe a little day out to Chester, spend time with my niece and sister-in-law (I don't know what else to call her, OK boyfriends sister).
• Download some music.
• BLOG EVERY DAY. Yes. I also need to blog on the other blog I mentioned.

Like I say, I seem to have turned into a work-a-holic recently, and I've been really neglecting myself! My skins dry, I'm full of spots, I've put weight on, my hair's so dry and brittle, my nails are an absolute disgrace! So I need to bring back my old beauty regime! 

I've got a new layout on the blog, I'll carry on having a bit of a fiddle with it to make it look better! I'd like to keep it quite neat and basic. I read quite alot of girly beauty blogs, and they all tend to adopt the same srot of style, with ditzy Cath Kidston esq floral backgrounds etc, but that's not really want I want to go for to be honest. Although I want my blog to be a beauty blog primarily, I also hope to be able to do some feature writing on here too. As well as Gossiping about the UK Soaps, Gossip Girl, New Girl and all of the other programs I live my life according to!

My magazine reading has been neglected recently too, I still have March's Elle and Marie Claire untouched! Once they're finished with, I'll stock up :)

Despite the pic, and the background of my blog, Im not a bird lover ...

Im in the (albeit slow) process of re-styling my bedroom at the moment. I've decided to live at home for my last year of university, so I want a nice environment to compensate for it! Anyway I loved the butterfly wall design on Serena Van Der Woodsen from Gossip Girl's bedroom at Blair's house, and decided to find something similar!

     I found this on Ebay and I am well getting it! I can't decide on a colour though...

ATM the colour theme is fuschia, but I need another one to match and I just cannot decide. I have white walls and bedroom furniture, with fuschia curtains and a fuschia Laura Ashley toille bedding. Im after a sheepskin rug (don't judge me plz) and a matching cream colour throw, maybe I should leave the second colour?

     I suppose black will look good, possibly a grey shade? I'd also like a big chair in there, and unless I come up with a secondary colour, it's going to have to be fuschia again, PINK OVERLOAD. I suppose I have always been a pink girl and I'll be moving out ~properly~ soon, so I should make the most of it!

I should be spending my sacred last few days off glued to my kindle reading Moll Flanders, but I really cannot bring myself to do it. I'm just too busy. Tonight on Emmerdale we find out who battered Cain Dingle, and then after that I'm making my way through the second season of An Idiot Abroad.
