Fancy Friday!

Today I fancied (see what I did there) doing something a little different and coming up with a blog post entirely based upon chance. I googled adjectives that begin with the letter f and just swirled my mouse around to see what it landed on! Luckily it landed on quite an easy word to kind of twist into a blog... Don't know what I'd have done if I got 'Ferromagnetic Fridays'.

I am literally just typing what pops into my little head here so if I am all over the place I do apologise (and I'm one pear cider down too).

Here are a few things to make your Friday a little bit fancier...

1. Drink orange juice out of a wine glass
2. Listen to classical music for as long as you can
3. Wear lots of sparkle
4. Cut your toast diagonally and display it like they do in hotels

Okay so this is a little bit of a light hearted post, but honestly I just wanted to write about anything today! I have an exciting post that will hopefully upload on Sunday or Monday involving my best buddy. Despite my unusual post, the sentiment is real, don't be afraid to spice up your life in the cheapest ways possible! It's the little details in life that make it more special, ask any successful business person!

That's it really!

A slightly fuzzy photo of my friends and I in our ROA May 2010! This was the fanciest photo I could find of us...

What YouTube has taught me.

Lately as I have been scrolling the home pages of Blogger, YouTube etc I have been wondering what it would be like without them. In order to figure this out I am going to list all the things I may not have known without the help of our online 'mentors'...

1. How to get rid of strange men. (Thanks to Jenna Marbles)

Watch how to do this HERE!

2. You don't have to use a flat brush to apply foundation! (Thank f**k for that!)

I'm trying to remember where I saw this, it blew my mind whatever! I genuinely believe there's a conspiracy theory around flat foundation brushes- other brushes in my opinion do SO MUCH MORE.

3. Don't try and be a funny twat, because funnier geeks will ALWAYS win...

Watch this process happening in this magical space on the internet...

4. Your eyebrows need filling in. My oh my do I look back on the days I didn't fill my eyebrows in with disgust...

Three things wrong with this photo (taken in March 2010, I was 16...)

1. YELLOW: My old blackberry curve.
2. BLACK: My hair is flatter than a pancake
3. PINK: Where the hell are my eyebrows?!?!?!

Sixteen year olds today seem to have a lot more beauty brains about them- some criticise this, but I say GO YOU! Wish I didn't have to look at these old pictures of myself...

5. Eye shadow is to be blended with a few colours, not to be worn as a solid colour.

Here's a photo of what I might have looked like today if I didn't know about these simple rules...

Beautiful streaky face, scraped back flat hair, solid eyeshadow and no eyebrows. You can't tell me you don't want a piece of that.

Oh wait, scrap the face because I wouldn't have learned about it...

 That's it really!

Now don't quote me on this, but they don't have these threatening signs in Wales, (where I'm from anyway). I understand the terrible sadness of the deaths but I couldn't help but laugh at this sign seen in Cheshire. Seriously England?

Why I love Northern Ireland...

Over the weekend I flew over to Ireland to celebrate a Anna's 21st Birthday in true nineties style! 

The day began with a treasure hunt in teams around Belfast castle. Everyone got really into it despite the rain, and we all had such a laugh! 

 

We all had taking part medals which everyone wore all night! Here's Anna and I sporting ours... This was followed by a BBQ and over the next ten hours of partying, the following things happened:

I found a mop and instigated limbo to Peter Andre,

Said mop became my broomstick,

I debated everything from the state of Israel to euthanasia,

We danced to 90s tunes,

The gazebo became the VIP tent and everyone started dancing to club music. The music went off and everyone simultaneously carried on singing the tune to avici,

We did shots out of trophies,

And we didn't get to sleep until it started getting light again...

And plenty more!! 

 

This looks like some kind of Saved by the Bell picture!

That's it really.

Hogwarts will regret not sending me a letter on my eleventh Birthday.
