Home sweet home

hi people,

Recently i have been aquainted with the process of having to move house and for some strange reason i associate moving house with moving away because i have only really lived locally except for the one time me and family took the plunge to try a more countryside feel. I loved it there, everything seemed so calm and simple.

 

The reason for the move now to a bungalow conversion  on a hill is because my mum has always wanted a house that feels like a home as we quickly out grew our family home and have since been renting. Our family home was one of those houses with the steep stairs although that house will always hold memories and its not too far from where i live now.

 

You may be thinking why are you living in a bungalow (ahh the memories of dick and dom in the bungalow,haha) well to be quite honest with my lovely readers is that it isn't all that small and my imaginative mother has a dream of turning this so called shack into a palace with the help of some extra walls here and there. I think its fair to say she has been watching too and i exagerate on too much grand designs but i have to admit i do love a bit of grand designs. Its amazing what you can do with a few carefully placed materials, hey. 

 

I am totally aware of what moving house can do in terms of not feeling comfortable but as for the recent move things are looking up. At first i thought the bungalow/house was horrible a kind of messed up hansel and gretel house if you get my drift, but now that we are in i feel much more at peace and its nice to have all your things everywhere, that defo helps. I can't wait till i can actually decorate my room after the building work is done, oh what a joyeous day that will be and i already have a plan, me .... a plan.... already .....yes!

 

In terms of the stress as a 15 year old girl i just wanted all my things to arrive safely and to get my room sorted out. As you can probably tell i like to feel comfortable in my surroundings especially my own home and i can definitley say i am happy now in a house i can truly call my HOME! To be honest in terms of stress on my mum and dads side i hope it wasn't too bad although having cardboard boxes everywhere is very fustrating! i am also a big believer in relaxing and not worrying over anything  even moving house, things are only stressful if you make it stressful. I hope i can always be a calm and rationally minded person who people can talk to about anything.

 

 

I hope you enjoyed this more personal, lifestyle-e post

thankyou for reading, feel free to leave a comment

How to blog, a helping hand for you and me

This is as much advice to you readers out there, hello btw, as it is as advice for myself, like a little note i can refer to when I'm stuck for inspiration or finding it hard to know what to write.

I have only had a few posts up but I'm hoping that my blog will last forever with a few acceptions that is. I don't want to be beaten by pressure from other bloggers. Blogging is about self expression and is something anyone can do about anything, there are no limits. Personally i want my blog to be about fashion, films, music, lifestyle and beauty. I think blogging will be good for me as at this point in my life as a 15 year old teenager it is good to have something to focus on away from school, its like a little journal of self discovery and expression and unbelievably it could be a career choice for me. I like the idea of having no rules and not having someone telling me what to do and moaning at me. I think i'll always be happy doing blogging because i am doing something that i enjoy.

I don't have twitter and don't like using facebook so my blog is my main expression apart from tumblr and frankly i love the concept of blogging.

So here are some tips for you and me on how to blog!;)

 

 

-Add pictures to any necessary blog post, it makes the page look and feel more interesting

 

-Delegate a notebook especially for blogging to jot any notes and ideas down so you don't forget and can expand those ideas

 

-In your blogging notebook you can always write out a tester of what you want as a blog post and then you can easily change it and make it the best it can be

 

 

-Try and make your blog posts as frequent as possible but don't feel pressured its supposed to be fun!

 

-Try and be unique and come up with new ideas and most importantly be yourself

 

 

-Leave a little introduction in the side bar about you and your blog

 

 

- Make sure to take advantage of the spellcheck

 

 

-Follow other blogs to see what everyone else is doing for inspiration and get involved in the blogging community

inspiration

Recently i was cruising through pinterest and i came across these 3 inspirational phrases and thought it would be a good idea to share them. They would make great tattoos as well. I think pinterest is great because unlike tumblr it keeps everything in one place. My link is in the side bar. Enjoy and hope your having a great day.

Hi guys and a happy new year! What a cheery start to this post. I have recently been inspired by the amount of blogposts and you tube videos on new years resolutions and new beginnings. Admittedly 2013 doesn't sound good but i personally have a good feeling about this year. Things can only get better, right? I have never properly made new years resolutions i can just remember people going on about chocolate and how depressing the whole thing sounded. Hopefully this post will set me up for a good amount of blogposts as i known that i have been a bit MIA (not really sure what this means it is mrs' unavailable isn't it :/ ha ha.) but to be perfectly honest i just haven't been feeling like it really and i am passionate about blogging and what to express and show that through the means of writing and make this a positive place for both me and you. So here we go !

 

I have made a list and I'm going to share them with you.

 

-Drink more water-

I know water isn't the most tastiest of drinks and being a 15 year old teenager i doubt many people my age actually care about things like apart from a few girls as we like to look after our beloved skin. I also just what to feel healthy and be full of energy. I do drink quite a lot of water anyway but i want to be able to keep it up as it will make me feel better and i actually maybe quite weirdly enjoy drinking water i find it quite refreshing.

 

-Eating healthier-

I'm definitely not the biggest fan of sport but i did somehow find myself enjoying the Olympics this year. yay! Instead or as well as trying to exercise i want to be able to control what i eat more by swapping the bad for the good. I will admit at this moment in time (whitney alert) i am not feeling my best not only do i feel a bit tubby ( i refuse to use the f word, only code words aloud!:)) i do feel unhealthy and i am going through a bit of a rough patch at the minute and want to perk myself up in as many ways as i can.

 

-Exercise-

Like i said in the healthy eating section i'm not the biggest fan of exercise but i do want to be healthier and i think excercising will give me something to focus on and make my mood lift what with all the endorphins. I have never liked sport and i certainly hate running in front of people and i can barely run a few hundred yards so hopefully i can do some walking or/and do some Pilate's and yoga classes and they aren't as frantic as running and i can't join a gym yet as i am only 15. what a shame haha.

 

-Skin and hair care-

As a beauty lover i really want to be able to maintain a healthy skin and hair care routine. My skin is awful as in it is both dry and oily because i have an oily t-zone and dry cheeks which basically just makes me feel dirty. As for my hair it is quite fine and very damaged for all the time i spent straightening it but since my operation on my ears (which i had during October but i'm not that up for writing or talking about it but maybe later, who knows)i have become more confident and absolutely adore being able to wear my hair up.

 

-Read more-

I definitely used to be into reading the gossip mags but now not so much i might go as far to say as i hate them because all they do is spread negativity and bitchiness but it is quite addictive so i do tend to look on the intern et but hopefully i will never buy another OK magazine again! i much prefer the old company magazine its got much more variety and my grandma buys the teenage mag like bliss its like a tradition every Friday me my brother and sister go round for dinner and she'll kindly buy as a magazine each and those magazines are far less bitchy. As well as continuing to stay on the less bitchy side of the magazines i also want to start reading more books. I received 2 autobiographies for Christmas by Miranda and the other by David walliams so they will hopefully keep me busy. I don't mind autobiographies i actually find them really interesting just like i love a good documentary on channel 4. haha. I myself purchased a book called 'the fault in our stars' by 'John Green'. i have already read a lot of it and will hopefully get round to doing a review. Books just seem more intelligent and i want to widen my book collection. What with the world being a technology frenzy( that reminds me of g-force the film about the guinea pigs that i watched today haha) and i want to maintain a good book collection also.

 

-Go to sleep earlier-

I am absolutely guilty of staying up all night on my laptop all night so here's to going to bed at 11 at the latest. I also want to be able to wake up bright and early in the morning and not have wasted half of my day.

 

-Be more positive and sociable-

Unfortunately what with going through a rubbish time i genuinely want to make this year count and to become less of a worrier. i want to be able to not think of all the bad things that can happen and to be able to find the positive in what i'm going through and in any other situation i find myself in and to make the most of things. Hopefully going out more and being able to find the strength to do so will help me also.

 

p.s i am going to try and cut celebrity big brother out of my life as it can get a bit depressing so hopefully i can stick to that easy yet hard task as i am a big fan!

 

I love doing lifestyle posts, sorry if this was a bit long.

Let me know what your new year resolutions are!

happy 2013
