Weird Friends At School

Hey guys!

So, basically I was asking around my friends to see what I should do for today's blog. And obviously they wanted it to be about them! But to be honest, that's not gonna help you guys who come here for makeup, beauty and life posts. So, I decided that I'd tell you something a little different.




Weird friends are the best.  Yeah, your little group might not be the most popular people in school, but having weird friends who actually care about you is better than having popular friends that couldn't truthfully care less. It's better to have weird friends that you can have a joke and a laugh with, than people you can't be your crazy self around.

It doesn't matter if you have 7 different personalities. When you're around your friends, your parents, your crush. Weird and honest friends will love you through all of that. They even won't leave your side (unless they die laughing) when you drop a super large Fanta all over the hallways in the cinema. Yup, I actually did that. And that drink was like twice the size of my head!




Even if you're backstage at a rehearsal and you you know casually fall over nearly all the scenery because it's pitch black! Yeah, there's someone who's gonna be there through that too. Even if all they do is laugh.

Weird and super awesome friends will be there when you fall down the stairs in an embarrassing costume and nearly kill half the scenery. Yeah...

But anyways the message of this was just to say that you don't need a huge group of friends, weird, small groups of true friends will mean 100x more!

That's all for now
Bye!

My Skin Problems!

Hello Everyone! I'm back. . .again!

Now, as most of you know, I suffer from quite bad acne. This is not a result of makeup, because as much as I love it I only really use it when I am going out somewhere special or in case I am going to see certain people that day. This is just my skin being annoying! And I know that somewhere out there, there must be someone like me who suffers just as badly with their skin and the emotional side effects.

To be perfectly honest, my skin effects me more than it should. Some days I have cried and hidden away in my bedroom because I feel ugly. And I just wanted to share this with you and say that you are not alone in this. Many other people suffer exactly the same as you do and you, yes YOU are perfect! Although I can't always see this in myself every single person in this world is unique and beautiful. So what you have acne? No big deal, people should judge you based on what is on the inside not on your appearance. Be confident in your skin. Accept that yes, you have acne, but also you have amazing eyes and really pretty hair. Focus on the positives and think of it this way:

I was given acne to show people that I am that special that god (or whoever you do or don't believe in) marked me but left everyone else blank.

Just remember that you are gorgeous no matter what people say. I have had people call me spotty and a spotty scruff, but I always try and think that they might say this now, but who's going to be laughing when my skin clears up and they get this, hey?

Ignore these people, they are not worth your time and you deserve better. Stay strong. I hope this has helped!

How To Be More Organized!

Hey guys!  Wow how long has it been?! Most of you are probably 80 by now...

Anyways! Welcome back!

Today was non uniform day at school. Yes I'm from England and yes I have to wear a uniform. It sucks let me tell you. Anyway I had the issue of forgetting to sort out or iron an outfit and so I was stuck with something that wasn't... well the best shall we say. And so I decided to give you a few tips on how to be more organized! Lets go!

1. Stick little post its on the back of your door!

Putting brightly coloured notes on your door will remind you of what you need to do or sort out everytime you leave your room or look towards the door when you're trying to magic food up the stairs and to your mouth.

2. Set a reminder to do something on your phone!

This may seem a little weird but set an alert for a certain time the next day. Maybe for when you wake up,  that way you can't get started straight away!

3.  Use the sticky note app on your laptop!

Use the sticky note app to attatch notes to the desktop of your laptop! Its super easy and then when you go to watch netflix guess what you'll find! And no its not Aladdin.... they don't have that film....



And those are my three quick tips to being more organized! Keeping a diary also works great! I hope you enjoyed and there will be more entries coming soon! Keep calm (which is hard because Mockinjay Part One comes out next week in the UK) and I'll see you soon!

Bye! Xoxox
