Learn something...


It seems like it has been such a long time since I did a blog post. Life has been busy, busy, busy and I’m not sure when it will all stop – it’s meant to be summertime where quiet days are the norm. Oh well. I found these questions floating around the web so decided it would be
quite fun to fill out! Feel free to do the same. X

TOWN OR COUNTRY?
Wow – this is a tough one. I love living in London when I’m at uni but at the same time I adore coming home at holidays and being able to smell the freshness of rural air and seeing rabbits and deer in the back garden. London is so culturally vibrant whereas home is naturally vibrant.
My housemates and I call London ‘home’ but then call our parent’s home ‘home home’ almost to emphasis the most important place to us.




MUSIC OR BOOKS?
Both again! I couldn’t live without both of these. Music is a massive part of my life – whether listening/playing but reading is also really important. There is nothing better than getting stuck into a book which you can’t put down.


PERFECT DAY?
The sun shining and spending time with the people I love!


LONDON, PARIS, NEW YORK or SYDNEY?
The Big Smoke definitely – LONDON.

BREAD or CAKE?
Aaaaah hard one, again! I think I would say bread just because I could live without cake if I really tried to.


ROMANTIC HERO or ACTION HERO?
Jonathan Rhys Myers, please!



PRINCE WILLIAM or PRINCE HARRY?
Prince William, because of Kate.



CATHERINE or PIPPA?
Easy easy! If anyone has read previous posts they know that I went slightly crazy around the time of the Royal Wedding. I loved it, mainly because I’m in awe of Kate! She is so elegant and just holds herself beautifully.



HEELS or FAVORITE WINTER BOOTS?
I love heels but when it comes down to it I would pick winterboots for the comfort factor.



CHOCOLATE or COFFEE
Coffee, hands down. My housemates and I are slightly obsessed. One of my favourite things is going and grabbing a frappucino and having a good chat.



PEDICURE, MANICURE or MASSAGE?
Manicure – my nails and how they look are important to me, one of those things that if it isn’t right I’ll be uneasy until it is!

TALK IT OUT or KEEP IT TO YOURSELF?
I would like to be able to say talk it out, but I can’t. I’m one of those annoying people who bottles everything up and tries to deal with it myself although it is clear to see from my face that I’m not ok. This method backfires as I tend to have an annual ‘this bottle of emotion is getting full’ outburst.

KARAOKE - FIRST TO SING, LAST TO SING, OR ABSOLUTELY NO WAY-EVER
I love karaoke and am totally up for a good sing song in the company of a FEW friends. Definitely not one of these people who can stand up in the middle of a pub full of strangers.

One beauty product or routine that you would recommend or can't live without?
Washing my face every morning and evening. I’m using a foaming teatree cleanser at the moment and it really makes a difference. Also using hair moose!

One movie that makes you cry every time?
I cry so much when it comes to movies – but it would definitely have to be Forrest Gump!



 Who would play the handsome hero in the movie of your life?
Has to be David Beckham – this love goes back to when I was 8!



 How long have you known your oldest friend?
Since I was 6! Wow – 15 years!
She is very very special!



Your favourite book/movie/song?
I have too many favourite books!
Forrest Gump as already mentioned is my very favourite film – generally love Tom Hanks.
Wow favourite song – I love so many I couldn’t possibly pick. I’m a bit of a sucker for 70s and 80s music!
Maybe: Train – Hey Soul Sister



 Three dream cities you have yet to visit?
Lima, Boston, Rabat



 Three things still on your bucket list?
Spend a whole summer in Croatia.
Travel around Europe.
Learn to speak Northern Irish!





School days - happy or sad, good or bad memories?
Definitely happy and good memories! Too many to share!

What - or who - always makes you feel better on those more challenging days?
The sunshine! Always brightens any day.
Also uncontrollably laughing for no good reason.

  3. Wow! I loved all of the information and pictures in this post. The you are my sunshine pic is adorable. I definitely agree with you on the bread before cake and on the comfy boots before heels. I am also definitely the type to bottle things up and keep them to myself until I just can't take it anymore. But I have to disagree with the coffe, I don't eat a lot a chocolate, but I would definitely rather have it.
