WHY CAN'T I EAT IT? IT SMELLS SO GOOD

For Christmas I got a tub of Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula and it is a life saver!

I have the world's driest skin, in summer it gets dried out because of the sun and in winter it gets dried out by the radiators, so basically all year round I look like a snake because my skin cracks when its dry. So when I got this I could be happy again! 

This stuff works so well I only have to use it two times a week at the most (and my skin is really bad). It really does do what it says on the packet! I really love this but the only thing that annoys me is that it does take quite along time to sink in, so you do feel a bit 'sticky' for a while, but it's worth it.

One of my favorite things is that it smells so nice, it smells like chocolate nom! But I wouldn't recommend eating this. 

         What it says on the tub:

• It has vitamin E
• Softens and relieves rough, dry skin 
• Smooths marks and scabs 
• Palmer's is against animal testing (yay)
• Use after tanning for a longer lasting tan
• Ideal for deep moisturizing
• Good for stretch marks during and after pregnancy

So yeah that's what they say, I haven't tested all those thing out (because I'm not pregnant and we have no sun in England at this time of year) but I believe them because it works pretty dam well.

TEN THINGS I LOVE

If you couldn't work it out from the title... these are the ten things I love!

1. Blogging - since I have started doing this I just can't stop, now I'm almost on 100 views after about a week, it makes me feel loved! ♥

2. When people think things at the same time - I find this so funny when two (or more) people say the same thing at the same time by coincidence. I am in your mind, hehehe!

3. When someone complements you - I know this is such a little thing but it really does make you feel good about yourself. Happiness ☺

4. When you achieve something in PE - the other day I got the three best people in my class out in dodge ball in one game! I am the queen of llamas!

5. Funny pictures in textbooks - the first thing I do when I'm given a textbook at school is look for a funny picture and what i have learned from these pictures is that: goats like to walk in circles  llamas are the queens of the world, German people walk their rabbits on leads and if you are a bus drivers pull derp faces at camera men.

6. Llamas - they are the queens of life, the world and the universe!

7. Cover teachers - you hardly ever have to do work! Life is good for this hour!

8. When you successfully skip the lunch queue - at are school its like mission impossible to skip any queue. There are really scary people who are watching all the time but we have fond a way to not have to stand around outside for all of lunch so that by the time you have food you can't eat it. (most schools get a hour or close to an hours lunch, we get 30 minuets)!

9. Going on holiday with friends - I have already done this about three times before and its soooo fun! You never run out of things to do and the time just fly's by.

 And in a month me and two of my closets friends are going on holiday together and we cannot wait!!!!

10. People who don't care - I love anyone who has enough confidence to just not care what other people think about them. I have to tell you being one of these people is so much more fun, you can actually enjoy life. 

So if your not one of these people give it a try... ☺

I'm very easily amused...

TEN THINGS I HATE

If you haven guessed from the title these are the ten things that I hate or annoy me the most:

1. Mints - Okay I know a lot of you are like 'what?!?' But I really hate mint things! Firstly I hate the smell secondly anything minty gives me a headache, but most of all why do you want to spend money on dried up toothpaste?!?

2. The Jeramy Kyle Show - no one take this show seriously people either watch it because they find it funny or because it makes them feel better about their own lives. Also anyone who goes on this show has 'forgotten like how to like say a sentence properly cuz that's like sick'. I'm sorry but when they leave they should be given a dictionary! And a bath!

3. People who chew gum really loudly - Okay we're in an exam I'm trying to concentrate when I here this awful noise! You sound like a troll! It's the worst noise ever and to be honest is really rude, no one want to listen to you when your doing that!

4. Hypocrites - I know that no one likes hypocrites: but either complain about something and don't do it or do it and don't complain and wast my time!

5. The ocean - It's not that I don't like the ocean per say, it's more that you don't know what out there and when your swimming and you get court in some seaweed the first thing anyone thinks is 'something's got me! I'm going to die!' Don't pretend like you don't do that I know you do! Or when you cut your foot on a rock it really hurts! It could have been a shark you know!

6. People who look down on you - I know there are always people in life who think they're ten times better than you even though there not! We had no English teacher the other day and we were all stood out in the hallway, on the stairs, ect. and one of the boys who is considered 'popular' came and stood with our group of friends (he is one of the only people who is considered 'popular' that is actually nice and you can have a conversation with). But it was when all the other 'popular' lot come and are like "what are you doing with them?" I'm not even kidding that's what they said. I'm sorry but I'm a human being not a piece of dirt on your shoe! I hate people like that - they expect you to treat them like royalty, er no thank you!

7. Duck Face - I'm sorry but what is wrong with smiling in a photo? Why do so many people insist on pulling stupid faces for photos, it doesn't even look nice! 

This is what they think they look like...

This is what they really look like!

8. Chickens - Now this may sound strange but I have a phobia of chickens: they really scare me! They could peck you alive!!!! (It is a real phobia its called Alektorophobia)

9. Dub-step - What even is dub-step!! It's just noise I don't know how anyone could call it music! 

10. ET - I know the film ET is a beloved childhood memory for a lot of people but having only watched for the first time at Christmas all I could think about is 'how did he get up those stairs so fast, I mean it was faster than he can walk. He has no knees how can he do it. His legs are so short, what is happening! Now he's carrying thing up the stairs? REALLY?' This film confuses me so much!!

GO GREASE LIGHTNING

This year our school production is Grease! Yay! This is one of my favorite musicals, I don't like the film as much because everyone looks soooo ugly! But I guess at the time they probably were considered super snazzy! (I like the word snazzy ☺)

 I had auditions yesterday, and considering I used to be very shy I wasn't actually that scared. Two years ago I would have never even thought about being in a school play and now I'm auditioning for a main part (and writing a blog)! I have auditioned to be Frenchy as she doesn't sing a solo.

I did have to sing a song this was quite scary but I don't think I completely messed it up (I hope)!

My favorite part of the audition was when we had to attempt an american accent, the only reason I found this so amusing was because we have an american friend, who was in the same group as me, but whenever we did an american accent she would laugh because she found it really wired. I don't blame her! But when we were practicing I would just look at her and as soon as she started to laugh I would too. I don't think anyone noticed we managed to cover it up quite well.

Now I know there are some people who can just walk out onto a stage and have no fear and be completely confident, but there just weird! If you are nervous that's normal. But I think no matter who you are, you should still try to get a part in a school play because its so much fun! 

This is the last chance I'm ever going to get to be in a school play so I am 'embracing' the opportunity. We only had one option for our GCSEs and if I'd had another option I would have chosen drama so I really do hope I get one last chance to do something 'dramary', so I can't wait to see if I got a part. EEEEK!!!! The cast list goes out on Tuesday next week so I will give you guys an update when I find out!

I don't care if I'm a tree I just want to be involved I guess! ☺

I LOVE OUTLETS!

I found two great bargains on an outlet site! And I love them both so much!

I was looking for a new coat for a little while but after the Christmas sales no where seems to have any. So it was then I thought I would look on an outlet as they have last seasons clothing. It was at that very moment when the post came through the door and I saw the new Jack Will catalog (loving some of the new stuff guys: www.jackwills.com/en-gb/home) and as I was already a member of there outlet I decided to have a look...

I found my self a nice little coat, its really light, thin but quite warm and really comfortable! Beth is happy ☺ 

It's a bit big for me but at least I can put a
jumper on underneath! ☺

Sorry this pictures a bit blurred  

I really like things with elbow patches 

It has the nicest lining

Third pocket is inside great for you phone!

Whilst I was on the website i was looking at some of the other things they had and I saw the one thing I wanted the most but couldn't afford before and as it was sooo much cheaper i got it and I love it to pieces.....  

♥ This skirt is so cute and goes with everything! ♥

Even has two pockets!

And I love the pattern! But be careful 
the beads fall off :'(

The coat was reduced from £98 to £49 

The skirt was reduced from £129 to £39 

Bargain!!

And that's why I love outlets! ☺

This is where I got my stuff from: www.jackwillsoutlet.com

But it does take a while before your accepted *sad*

MAJOR FREAK OUT!

There's always a reason to freak out guys...

• Someone gives you chocolate for no reason 

• You see the cutest, fluffiest thing the the world 

• There's a spider in the bath (eeek) 

• Someone you don't know comes over and has a conversation with you like you've been friends for years (stranger danger)

• It's your Birthday

• Its Christmas

• Its pancake day ( ...nom pancakes)

• The huge turkeys escape from the person across the roads garden and try to kill you (true story)

• You've just watched a horror movie and come home to find your home alone

• Someone's playing that song you hate... again!  

• When your internet goes down

• When you drop your phone

• When someone other that the bank writes you a letter... yay yay yay someone loves me! 

• When you get to go shopping 

• When you find the best bargain ever!

• When the spider returns..... duhduhduuuuh

• When you single handedly beat the three best people in your class at dodge ball

• When you get your first follower (thank you youknowyoulovegrace )

This was very random but it popped into my head so I did it anyway! :)

CAMERA ADDICTION

After getting a brilliant new camera for Christmas I found that I could do almost everything you could think of with it, and any effects that weren't on the camera were on the editing program that came with it. But seeing as it is so good I have found myself taking it everywhere! I take photos on a day to day basis (thank goodness I have two 16gb memory cards!) 

My camera is the Canon Power Shot SX220 HS and I love it (if you can't tell)

Its not to big, so easy to carry around with you, it has a 14x optical zoom, plenty of effects, good in nearly all lighting, HD videos and photos. Basically I love it! 
The only things I don't like: is that the camera makes a noise when you zoom in and out (so no so good if you're videoing and want to zoom in). The other thing is that when you turn it on the flash thing pops up so you have to make sure your hand isn't over that part of the camera. But nothing big really, you get used to it after a while. 

See what I mean about the flash bit sticking up! ^

So I have taken a lot of pictures with this and I thought you might like to see a few of them :)

   

This is a 'blue and white' effect (I think this looks nicer than black and white in some cases)

I used a slow shutter speed for this (you get such a different effect with moving shots)

 

As you can see I love

taking pictures!

HELLO

Now I know lots of people create blogs for popularity and publicity, and there are many people who are more concerned about having the most Twitter flowers and Facebook friends than real friends, but I really don't care about that. I have created a blog so I can express my views and opinions.

For a while now I've been wanting to set up a YouTube channel and post videos, again not for the publicity but because I want to, but I really can't be bothered! So instead I've decided to make this blog. 

I have tryed to change the layout and design of my page but my Internet is so slow *sigh* it just was taking to long. But I'll try again tomorrow.

If you can't tell this my first blog is just me saying 'hello' to any of you reading this. And, well, a thank you for bothering to read this!
