Exactly what I'm looking for

Hi guys!
I was looking for a DIY beauty site a couple of weeks ago: you know the type, DIY hand scrub, DIY lotion...
WELL! I found one! It's called ElleandBlair and is run by the sisters... of the same name...
There is some really cool stuff. One of my favourites was the charger caddy. What's that, I hear you ask? Well, have a look then. Click here, you know you want to. :)

Education on the brain

Hello!
So, I know I told you that I would be doing reviews and things in different posts but I have decided to do it all in post! How lovely!

First of all, however. I must update you on the newest transgressions and injustices that is my life.
I got an essay. For doing my homework. What is that about? Well, I had 1 question to do for homework, and they had 2 subquestions. It was 'what are the advaantages/disadvantages of social conferencing?'. OK? So I did the 'advantages' bit, not a problem. But the disadvantages bit... well, I couldn't think of any apart from one. So I just wrote down that one.
Then I open my book apart it's been marked, and guess what's written there?
'I asked you to do one thing and you never did it. Please write me a 1 page essay'. Let me tell you, I was fuming. I was planning my blog post on the way home and it read 'igot an EsaAY why bsakfdbsdcjkb.sdhbdns FDGBbiuabfisjfauf'. Ahem.

My auntie tried to set me up with a sixth form student. I was on my way home from drama today, and we were talking about this guy in school, who, well, is fit. No doubt. BUT he as well as dated another girl and at first I was like, 'y omg no y me so ugly waaaah!111!!!!111!' but now I'm very Stephano. Anyway, she asked me if I was over him and I said yeah, and that I'd given up on guys, which bought me not a sympathetic hug or a 'you go guurrrl' cheer, but a lecture on my I shouldn't 'give up now! You have your whole life ahead of you and blah blah blah'. Then she asked me if I liked anyone at drama, to which I said no. Then she said, 'What about *****?' His name isn't actually *****, I would just like to protect his identity and also dignity.
 So, I said, 'He's nice, but he's my friend. Like a brother'.
 But she said, 'But you're always hanging around with him', to which I replied,
'Only because he's a brony, one of the one that I know'. And then I said, 'And anyway, did you know he's in sixth form?'. All hell broke loose.
'WHAT!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?1111//// Well, you can't date him'
'I know Ta-'
'You'll have to admire from afar.'
'I don't admire anyway, Tara' This continued for another 5 minutes. But, like I say, I have given up on guys and plan to become a nun. I will update you when my life becomes boy filled, and I push them away like a emperor does a leper.

I started bird watching. This may not be true. Or it may be. Who knows?
I actually started watching Cuckoo. Cuckoo is about a girl who leaves for Thailand on her gap year, and comes back married to a hippy. And a fit hippy at that. :) Sorry, I'm ignoring my nunish ways. The word 'fit' will never leave my mouth. I mean keyboard. Anyway, it is rather funny. Just thought you should know.

I became a normal human being. I like One Direction. I like Green Day. I like Muses' new album. 'Tis true. I actually can't stop listening to 'Panic Station'. I recommend HIGHLY.

Well, my little skönheter, I shall have to love you and leave you as there is a gun with which I would like to shoot the footage of Rylan Clarke not only killing, but maiming, torturing, and finally gouging out the eyes of Gangnam Style, and then shoot myself. Sounds dramatic, but you gotta do what you gotta do.

PS Don't get me wrong, I like Rylan Clarke, I wouldn't vote for him. People are laughing at him, I know I was. And 'WOPPA RYLAN STYLE' just took it too far.

Hi guys.
Sorry there's not going to be any eventful posts any time soon, I've got the influenza. :(
But luckily, when I get back to school I will be greeted with LOADS of catch up work. :'D (sarcasm guys).
Anyway, have a fun, pathogen-free week.

Tag: Beauty vs Brains

Listening to: Live While We're Young by One Direction
I was tagged by Cat from Through A Cat's Eyes (well, not me personally, she tagged everyone...) to do this post. Let me start by saying that what happens on the internet, stays on the internet. OK? Well, now that we've got that out of the way...

What's your favourite book?
... Why did that have to be the first question? *sigh* I have two, but they are different genres. Let me elaborate.
Cinderella Ate My Daughter by Peggy Orenstein is a huge part of my life. Seriously. That reminds me, I must do a review on that in my book review blog. :D
We'll always have Summer by Jenny Han. Ohmigosh. *fangirl scream* I need to do a review on this too. You know where it is :)

What's your motto?
I don't really have a motto, though I do randomly sprout quotes from Tobuscus, Rhett and Link, and Pewdiepie. So, for example, if a friend would get me something nice, I would shout 'Farsa?!' or if I would trip over a rock I would shout 'Jennifer!'. AND when we did a warmup game at drama, Tara (teacher) added a new thing called arm chair where you need to be in an armchair position and when she shouted it I shouted 'CHAIR MODE ACTIVATED *boop*' :3

What do you prefer: English or maths?
English. Always English. I'm frikkin' terrible at maths. :/ Bodes well for my teaching career.

Which do you prefer: Science or art?
I'm taking both Biology and Art, so I don't think I could prefer any over the other. But I hate Chemistry and Physics is too difficult :/

Name 5 albums/musical artists that have changed your life.
I completely believe that music change your way of life. That's why I can't choose only five. But I will say that Blink 182's Greatest Hits really helps me through some tough times. And Gangnam style by Psy. :) Oh! And Jack Johnson :D

What were your favourite and least favourite subjects at school?
Well, I'm still at school, so my least favourite is music (even though I chose it), ICT and maths (but I love the teacher! :3) and my favourites are English 2 and art.

Who is your favourite celebrity with a brain?
*hmm* There's not many... probably Tobuscus. And yes, he is a celebrity with a brain and a beautiful face :3

What is your nerdy little secret?
I have a pencil case with name stickers, hole reinforcers (oo-er) for binders, a bag for drama that is bright blue and I love getting new books. :)

Who are your favourite beauty/fashion gurus whom you admire for more than just their beauty/fashion sense?
I don't really know many, but my friend Sarah is such a beauty queen! :) And The Nailasaursus' nails... I just drool over those designs, then cry because I can't do them. :/
Do they count?

If you could study anything, anywhere, what and where would you study?
Drama or dance, in Sweden, Fuqua Varina (America), or London.

If your blog wasn't about beauty/fashion what would it be about?
I would cover songs on my blog :3 or publish my writing. Or just have it like it is mostly now. Lifestyle. :)

Name something you are obsessed with and other people would find nerdy.
I randomly quote youtubers :L But I've already used that so... *gasp* I know the whole dance of Gangnam Style. Oppa Gangnam Style!

Name 5 people, excluding friends and family, who inspire you. 
Rhett McLaughlin and Link Neal (they DO count as one :3), for starting a band in their teens, posting YouTube videos, being on Tv, sneaking on the red carpet, and capturing my hearts. :3
Felix Kjellberg, for rising up against the prejudice and achieving his dream, 'to make people laugh'.
Toby Turner, for not being afraid of being seen as nerdy for loving his mom (mum :P) and wanted to move out of his home because she is ill, and not being afraid of crying on interview, and laughing about it.*

Who will you tag? 
My many :P followers. :)

*when I was writing that, I brought a tear to my own eye. :')

Sports don't like me

Hallo!
I had a bad day today. I had PE.
Let's get something straight. I HATE PE. In fact, other people who take PE with me hate PE too. Not that THEY hate it, just they hate when I play with them. So I would like to point out to certain bitches that were pretty bitchy today, that IT IS NOT MY FAULT I FAIL AT EV-ERY-THING.
Anyhoo.
I would like to say that I HAVE MY FIRST LISTING EVER ON MY ETSY STORE! And I found a fellow bro called Anna Williams. She made a baby slendy!
Sorry, this is a short post, but I have a lot to do tonight.

Bargain hunting and vintage sweet shops

Hey guys!

I went to drama yesterday and saw my wonderful friendywends. :3 Nothing else eventful really APART FROM... I went to the old vintage sweet shop in the outlet mall. I bought some fizzy bonbons, some funny money (basically rice paper), strawberry millions chocolate bar and strawberry flyers.
Have you been watching the X Factor? I have :3 Bliss Lomand or whatever her name is with the body stocking was just... anti-feminism all over. Neon underwear?... OK.
I have an ETSY STORE! YAY! It's called BorisApproves. :) I haven't got any products listed but if you want me to make something, I'll see what I can do, and who knows? If it's popular, I'll keep making it, all thanks to you. And yes, I'll share credit. :)
I've been scouring tumblr recently, and decided to do this quiz type thing. I'm going tot start a tag, so I will tag someone to do it,  then they do it. A bit like an award. :) Ready? Let's get started.

Do you sleep with your closet doors open or closed? Closed. I watch too many Amnesia videos for me to trust an open wardrobe door. >_>
Do you take the shampoos and conditioner bottles from hotels? Who doesn't? I have a very small budget, and whenever I'm running low I just take them, call the concierge, say there was no shampoo, conditioner or soap in my bathroom, and have them bring it up. That's not cheating... right?
Do you sleep with your sheets tucked in or out? ... I don't think I understand the question. I just jump into my bed and fling the cover on me. :) I get sleepy sometimes...
Have you ever stolen a street sign before? ... No? *I think it's an American thing...*
Do you like to use post it notes? Do I? Of course I do! Hell, I even have a pencil case with post it notes, name tags and hole reinforcers... I like to be organised... That doesn't make me nerdy, OK?
Do you cut out coupons but never use them? Mais oui...
Would you rather be attacked by a big bear or a swarm of bees? A bear.
Do you have freckles? Yeah!
Do you always smile for pictures? I don't appreciate cameras being thrust in my direction, because of my face. So no. I avoid them.
What's your biggest pet peeve? People who talk and throw in a 'like' for good measure. Annoyance.
Do you ever count your steps when you walk? ALL THE TIME! I'm glad somebody else does.

SO! Turns out there's 99 of these, so, I'm just gonna leave this here and finish them when I can. :)
Stay Awesome bros
MBAI!

This. Is. Schooooooooooooolaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Crappy title, I know.

It's all in a good cause becaaaaauuse: I'M BACK AT SCHOOL! :) Why a smiley face, I hear you ask? School is full of depression, sadness and homework. Well. I didn't see my friends over the holidays (and it was my friend Cynthia Cidre's birthday in the holidays, so shout out for her :3) so I was looking forward to seeing them.
You will notice that this is posted much later than my previous post. This is simply because, as I am starting my GCSEs, I will not be able to post as often as usual. So, you'll recieve a post from me once or twice a week.
Let me tell you about school. I like my school, and my class is mediocre. But Cynthia is not in my class :'(
I have had a good time in lessons BUT I am the only person in my class for music. :( So, it was just me and Mr Wells, and while he was talking, I was trying not to laugh.
Also, format update: if you follow me on twitter, but don't have a blogger/google account then on my twitter I will post a little extract from my post and the link, because I love you :)
And my music homework was sooooooo hard. I had to transcribe a fast piece of music BY EAR onto manuscript paper. The composer was called Peter Warlock and the piece I listened to had a picture of him the whole way through. By the 8th listen, all I could say was, 'oh god i hate him his smug grin i wanna rip his head off why did i take music kill me garrrrrrrrrrrrrl'. You get the gist. Anyway, moving on.
Sorry, but I will be cancelling FMA. For two reasons:

1. It is more convient for the plans for the future to be undertaken in the first month of the new year, no?
2. I forgot what I had to do for about three days :/

You know I did a post about a moth that was in the shower? Well, it happened again. Twice. 

First of all, there was a mosquito in the shower, which means that instead of maybe getting a bite on my foot (minus socks) or arms, or legs, I was destined to get a bite ANYWHERE, from my arse to my elbow. (See what I did there? I didn't). Luckily, I didn't get bitten.

And this morning my mum walked into my room at 5:45 AM ?(15 minutes before I was supposed to get up), and said 'Don't panic, but we may have a bat infestation.' I literally did a double take. She said that a giant moth had flown across the landing and into her room while she was sleeping in the spare room.

Then she realised that a moth didn't have jagged edges on its wings. So, tonight I will be waiting for the bat to emerge. I will notify you of its former whereabouts when we realise. :P

Anyway, I will away now, to tumblr where I will cry big fat tears of joy/sadness/fandom.

PS My audio won't work on youtube or tumblr, any ideas?

Couldn't think of a title yet- LOL

Listen to: A Whole New World from Aladdin
Hello friends! How are you? So, bring a friend to COAD is over, and it wasn't as big as I thought it would be... but nae bother! I'll have another one soon. :)
How are you feeling? Well? Good for you, because I don't. :/
I joined Pinterest a few seconds ago. It says 'Click a few things you like'. Yeah, I clicked almost everything :3
If you follow me on twitter, I joined my twitter account with my Pinterest one. I don't know if that means you can access my boards via my twitter page, but whatever. If any of you want to see it, just ask! :)
Anyway, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to drool over food I can't have, lust over clothes I can't wear and go all gooey eyed over cute wittle animals. Thank you, and good night.

Holidays... how I've missed you...

Hi guys. I’m back. I have some stuff to tell you. First of all, we went on a school trip to Blackpool Pleasure Beach and, as you will soon discover, I have a huge fear of heights, meaning rollercoasters are a no-no. Everyone, however, wanted to go on the plane ride which went really high and what made it worse was a) it went at a 50 degree angle and b) there were no seatbelts. My friend Cynthia volunteered to sacrifice going on it but she looked like a sad little puppy so I sat next to her. By the end, I felt like a boss and couldn’t give a flying pork chop, like I’d gone on... any other rollercoaster. XD But a fun day was had by all, especially on the teacups. :D They were fun. But on the way there and back, Cynthia had tried to convert me to being a Directioner, meaning being a fan of One Direction. If you haven’t heard of them, where have you been? She succeeded. I am now... {it pains me to say} a big fan of One Direction. It pains me because I was adamant that I would NEVER be a fan, but I apparently wasn’t stubborn enough. She told me about a One Direction fanfic video called The Adventurous Adventures Of One Direction. I am listening to One Direction while typing. I’m so annoyed. :/ Also, on Thursday we broke up from school for the Summer. Our class joker, Colin, left too, which put a downer on things. I almost got a goodbye hug from my crush, but I didn’t insist, so it didn’t happen. L But I must forget about him, and focus on the good things about summer, like sun {hopefully, but probably not, knowing England weather}, shorts {on me! Not guys... or other girls. ;)}, and, the best of all, wearing NAIL POLISH {especially as I have a lot of them}! I’m just miffed that when I go back in September, my new form teacher will be my friend’s-ex’s mother {no relevance, just trying to paint a picture of how I can’t talk about her in front of him}. She is really strict and pulled me up as an example of being late, when Elliot and Fraser came in after me! L Also, when we were doing register, I said ‘Yes miss’, fairly innocently, and she said ‘Don’t divorce me! Yes Mrs. ****’ {I asterixed because I do not want to inform you of her, in case of ‘copyright’ etc.}. So... yeah. And I am doing GCSE set 1 in September too. :/ I am taking French, Art, Music and Biology. There’s nothing wrong with the options I have chosen, apart from the fact that I am the only person in my class taking music because of our teacher. I bet when he found out that Colin was leaving, he had a party. They didn’t get on, but the worst thing was that, as I always intended to take Music and sat opposite Colin {who made me laugh}, Mr Music always gave me the evils. D: Moi, badly behaved? Never! J Muahahahaha! Anyway, I am going off topic, although I don’t have much to talk about. Err... Drama tomorrow. I will miss my acting buddies over the holidays, especially my floppy buddy Matt and my floppee buddy Caitlin, and my manga buddy Josie, and my chic buddy Niamh, and my smexy buddy Maisy, and my music buddy Ellie, and my tall buddy Will, and my small buddy Zach, and... and.... more people to mention. J I love them all though <3. I really need to upload a profile picture, so I will take some tomorrow. :3 Well, I will depart now, dear children, and I know this post was long but could I give any less of a flying pork chop?
