I'll create my future .. just how i want it to be

29th November .. There's snow allll around! :D and its the day we go to Manchester ucas fair with college ^^
Was surprised Mel actually turned up seeing as she lives all the way from Doncaster :D
She always seem to be there before me .. ¬¬" and i live like .. in the same area xD
ah well :3 no need to rush Helen
More people came than I expected due to the snow.. Coach driver chose to take the snake pass route which was... worrying coz of the snow ^^"
But we'r still alive! :D
everyone felt sick on the coach .. wasn't nice >.<
the scenery was really nice x] me and Mel just spent the whole journey imagining weird things happening outside .. like .. a cow rolling down a hill ...

Finally arriving into Manchester .. :D .. there wasn't much snow at all :( DISAPPOINTMENT!

Don't have a clue where we were .. but we was at this gallery .. that was pretty shit tbh xD
The first thing we noticed as we walked in.. was the dark indoor woods path! :D
This woman gave me a random sticker so i could take photos around the galleries .. but it was crap anywayz .. lol couldn't take pictures in half of their galleries ¬¬" whats the point

Well the first thing we did was walk into this woods part :D it wasn't as amazing as we thought it would be :/ but it was ok.

Here's Kyle in the "woods"




Exploring the galleries .. We came across a wallpaper exhibition that had a wallpaper display of penis's :') .. I couldn't help but take a picture of it but the security man literally jumped on me "NO PICTURES ALLOWED IN THIS GALLERY!" lol too late sucker! xD


I mean .. imagine if you walked into someones house with this beast on their walls xD

So here we are exploring .. and we came across this big box thats a room u go into. it was pitch black too.. i think i went in with Kyle and Melanie.. it was pitch black so i was .. abit scared xD yes .. i have a phobia of the dark :( but as we entered the room .. This horrifying voice came on .. it was for this video they was showing .. but it sounded horrifying in the dark O__O
I shouted out ... "Holy crap! What the fuck is that?!" and there was old people sat there watching it lol so ofcorse i legged it incase they attacked me for interrupting xD

I gotta say .. the galleries has been rather boring ... UNTIL ... we discovered some dress up costumes! :D now that made my day xD

Here's me, Mel and Kyle trying hats on ^^

We got more into it and even tried out their clothes :') Damnn .. Don't we look cool xD
I'm loving the dress Kyle tried on :'D ahh .. so funny xD

After the galleries .. we went for lunch :D mmmm foooood ^^
We wanted to go into China town .. but it was abit too far for us to go for the amount of time we have :/ so we just somehow ended up in this German market ^^ me, Melanie and Kyle decided to have German hotdogs :D they were nice ^^

My sausage also squirted at Ryan :') .. Just thought I'd mention it ^^
also .. Will doesn't do German sausage so he went for greggs :D

wanted to shop for abit .. but didn't really have time :/


Here's Santa Zippy! :D

Melanie laughed soo much after seeing this .. lol I still don't get what made her laugh soo much to make her cry with laughter :/


Oh yeah .. and we had the nicest but sickliest pancakes ever xD

Was time to go to the ucas fair .. all we did was just look for free stuff xD like .. sweets! pens ... bags lol and ofcorse collect prospectus from the uni's we wanna go to .. but i just took whatever looked cool or interesting xD

I got soo many books .. i needed a bag to shove in .. so i went to this random uni just wanting to get a bag!! .. but the man sat there just gave me a 10 hour lecture ... T____T
Was trying to not doze off .. but all i could think of was. .. "JUST GIVE ME THE GOD DAMN BAG!!" xD. So he finally finished his 10 hour speech .. and went and sat down .. ¬¬" WITHOUT GIVING ME A BAG!! So i actually asked for a bag xD .. and i got it! >:D ..
wasn't all that great .. i shoulda just looked around more and took other bags from other uni stands lol WITHOUT the rambling of an old man!

I took soo many Prospectus that day.. I haven't felt anything this heavy in a loooong time lol
Kyle carried some for a while :)

Its hoome time noww! :D back to Sheffield ^^ and .. the journey wasn't any better lol I still felt sick on the way back >.<>
Attempted a few random kiddy games such as Eye Spy .. which i got bored after 3 minutes xD

This was taken around 4pm .. see how fast its gotten dark already :(
but the sky looks pretty :) thought I'd take a pic of it^^..would be nice if the window was clean!

na na na nails!


Yo my homeys! not blogged in a while due to coursework overload :(

thought i'd give you guys an update to my nail beauty session :D

1 of my part/time or shall i say occasional job at the "American Professional Nails" in Rotherham. Been working there on off for 3 years now i think?
The most recent time i went in was about 4 weeks ago i think. :) My Boss Vicky was training me to spray coloured tips on nails ^^ and painting them professionally. Coz i only ever have time to go down every now and then. She gave me some equipments to take home and drew me some patterns to practise on ^^

My Crappy version of her patterns lol And this is my Boss's version ^^
(I need more practise) >.< Hah... see the difference? :')


Everyones welcome to have their nails painted by me ^^ Me need to practise more! D:

___________________________

My mother in law, zoe's mum (not literally xD ) wants me to do her some nail extensions for a christmas party :) Soo i used this good opportunity to practise on my own nail ^^ yes.. just the one coz I'm so lazy.

I decided to keep it short so it won't get in the way of painting, piano, kung fu, work etc lol
I'm not fully trained with powder based acrylics .. so i used the kit that Scarlette brought me ^^

The nails i used had to be placed half way along the nail.. which i didn't really like coz u can see a half white nail ==" so i painted a not so pretty pattern on it :/
but when i actually applied it on ^^ you cant tell the nail was fake after all :D so i guess its a good thing (Y)


so my nail experiment is complete :) and went well seeing as i haven't used them in a while hehe.

______________________________

See the difference in my 2 pictures i put up below?

The one on the Right is ALOT smoother and shinier than the one on the Left ;)
wanna know a secret? ^^


:D its cheap and easy to use! All you do is gently file the surface of your nail with each side of the puffer thing starting with the side that says number one :)
This is what it looks like ^^ i really like this product coz its just soo easy to use! No hassle or other products needed .. just this :)


This can be purchased in most beauty shops. I didn't purchase mine from boots if thats what your thinking. I got mine in a random beauty accessories store in Hillsborough lol
but if they sell it then I'm sure boots will :)

This only cost me around £1.50 or £2 i think?
it might be a tiny bit more .. can't really remember clearly :/
but i remember one thing for sure ... ITS SO CHEAP! :D which is always a plus ^^

She lives in a fairytale somewhere too far for us to find ..

After about 6 months wait .. the day has finally come to see PARAMORE!!
okay .. I'll admit it .. at first i couldn't really be bothered to go to the concert .. coz of the shit weather .. stressing out ... tired from a full day at college. But I know I paid for the tickets and I've been waiting ages .. so why not just go anywayz and have a great time :)

We got tickets for standing up, so we decided to not bring ourcoats with us coz it'd be boiling when we get there. Walking and waiting outside in the cold was the worst part >.<
it was windy ... rainy ... cold .. urghh .. don't know how we survived .. lol

Going on the tram to get to Cineworld (to meet Jamie, Jake and .. Jake lol) .... I have never seen the tram this busy before .. O___O it was worse than afterdark ...

the queue was MASSIVE tooo... everyone just stood outside waiting to get in lol .. we thought we'd be rebellious and jump into the queue .. ^^" shhhhh
so er .. we only had to stand there for 10 mins :D .. It wasn't my idea btw lol


Us waiting in the queue .. to say we been walking in the fricken Typhoon like weather .. this photo isn't as bad as i thought it would be xD


Finallyyyy :D warmth!! ahh it feels so good ^^ now this is where the excitement starts to kick in! :D :D

our first support band was .. FUN. Then came B.O.B!! :D and guess what ... they performed Airplanes!! ^^ ahh we love this song :')
When Hayley Williams came out to sing this song with b.o.b .. the crowd went mental .. and ofcorse we did too! :D

wasn't so keen on FUN :/ .. there music isn't really something i like lol


Here's some of our spazzy crazy moments of the night (Y)
(The picture on the left amuses me) xD

Well ... There has been some unpleasant sites that night .. >.<
someone threw up all over the floor lol it was pretty disgusting +__+
The worst part is .. Zoe's friends slipped and fell into the pile of sick >.<>
but .... I'm sorry.. I can't help but laugh neither xD aww .. no, i feel sorry for them .. :')
really ... the smell was VILE!! ... so we stood at a different place somewhere far away xD lol
oh yeah .. and .. some stupid idiot stepped on vinegar and it splatted all over us!!!! ==" =="
well .. was only a few drops ... but, IT STINKS!!

but anywayz ... onto a happier subject .. PARAMORE FINALLY CAME ONTO STAGE!!
seriously .. O___O their opening was soooo good! I will try and upload videos up later :)
Their first song was IGNORANCE!! ^^ what a kickstart :D

ahh .. the sound of the music .. i just love it when you can feel the bass :D
makes me feel alive xD like my heart is actually beating to the music!

sighh times like this i wish i was taller xD lol wish i was at the very front so I don't have to keep lookin up at the screen or jumping up and down just to see a small figure lol
Apart from that .. it was A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!!
they performed some acoustic songs ^^ ... near the end, they sand "The only exception" lights all went out .. apart from the stage ofcorse and all the peoples glowy wands lit up whatever they're called lol .. ahh soo pretty!!

They left after that song .. without performing "Brick by boring brick" and "Misery Business" D: okay.. at first i actually thought they was just guna leave without performing them 2 songs..
lol but then i knew they'd come back for us! ^^
and here we have it .. they came back .. and performed brick by boring brick!!!

This one god damn lucky girl .. got chosen to go on stage by Hayley Williams .... HAYLEY WILLIAMS!! to sing the big solo of Misery Business!! D:
I never moshed so much before :') feels so good ..

Ahh ... what an AMAZING finish! having performed brick by boring brick and misery business .. with some indoor sparks and confetti!! SOOOO PRETTYYY! ^^ unfortunately .. we couldn't reach any confetti :( wanted to keep some for our little souvenir xD

I always get inspired into music again after a gig lol I wanted to chase after a different dream .. but i can't help but keep dreaming :/ .. not that it'll ever come true.
To be admired by many ... to be noticed by others, to be acknowledged by people .. just for doing the things you love doing

Oh baby .. you light up the sky for me

So here it is again, the day where the night sky sparkles .. ohhh i just luuurve BON FIRE NIGHT! :D for the past 3 years, I have been attending the Afterdark (this firework spectacular)

Weather wasn't too good unfortunately .. it seems to always rain abit on bonfire night :/
so the whole field was all mucky! D:
Well after a tiring day at college, I relaxed at home for abit before i went to the afterdark ^^

My first time visiting the afterdark was with Amy and Katie, Kerre and Frankie =]
2nd visit was with Jack ^^
And now ... I went with Katie, Kerre, Matt, Kit, Nikki and Chapman :D

Originally i was guna go with my girlies .. I really wanted to share this moment with them ..
but they all either had no money or was busy ..
Well I guess we have many years ahead of us ... I hope lol

But anywayz ^^ it was nice seeing my chinese friends again seeing as I've not seen them or spoken to them in ageees lol it almost feel like I'm not part of their group nomore =[
But i'm glad we got together for the afterdark ^^

last year.. the tickets costs £8 ... but this year ... Its gone up to £9!! D: D: .. £1 extra i know .. but its nearly a tenner we have to pay! D:

So the field was all muddy.. and as always there were loooads of people :)
I didn't go on many rides coz i was short on money .. but matt needed someone to sit next to on this ride so i went on with him .. although Kerre did pay for me ..

reminder: I OWE KERRE £3 :D
there .. that way hopefully I won't forget ^^ and hopefully it won't be too long till next time i see her lol



We thought we'd go up to the crowd and watch the performance from Real Radio? I'm sure it was real radio lol but yeah .. the people that went on to perform wasn't all that great .. :/ well .. i thought they were shit tbh xD buut i guess it kept us entertained until the firework displays came on :D


8:30pm ... The fireworks finally came onn!! :D :D :D eeeeeeep! ^^
I just looove watchin fireworks soo much i get all excited! :D
Whenever i watch fireworks .. it makes me feel all happy.. seeing the night sky sparkle, seeing the sky flash, seeing the sky make such pretty patterns likes sprinkles of stars falling down :3
Like i'm sharing something with everyone.. sharing the same sky as everyone

How can a flash of light in the night sky make me feel so happy?
That I'm not too sure myself.. but its like a flash of my life =] I wanna share this moment with all my loved ones .. Feeling the loud bangs makes me feel so happy for some reason xD It proves that I'm alive at least lol

Nothin gets better than seeing pretty fireworks.. with loud music .. and being with your friends =] .. don't you just love the feel of the bass coming from the music?
^^ I certainly do ..


Some photos i took from the afterdark of the firework display

Once again .. the firework display was.. A.M.A.Z.I.N.G! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
stepped on mud .. waited around for a few hours .. paid £9 to get in ... but ... SOO TOTALLY WORTH IT! :D
i think it is anywayz ^^

so i recorded some firework displays .. but my internets not been so good lately so I'm guna upload them another time =]

________________________________________

I know £9 is alot just to go see some fireworks and u can see them for free elsewhere .. but trust me .. there won't be anywhere else in Sheffield that would do fireworks as well as theirs ^^

Shoppity Shop

Its nearly end of half term .. and i still haven't bought the stuff i needed! D:
So i invited Ryan from my course to come along to Meadowhall with me, i thought it was a good opportunity to browse around some art materials in hobbycraft to see what we could get for our project.

Halloween was coming up, so i needed to buy some make-up for it. I spent all night thinking whatI could dress up as. Finally looking at this make-up tutorial on youtube has finally made me come to a decision.
...That, i shall surprise you guys.. if u haven'talready seen my facebook pictures yet xD

So before I went down to Loughborough with the girlies to see our lovely Katy Leigh .. :D
I just needed to buy a few things before i leave for the weekend ^^

So for Make-up, I went to Boots! Its where every girl goes for make-up ^^
I knew i needed a new eyeliner, lipstick and eyeshadows .. but wasn'tsure which make to get..
I'm not good with make-ups you see xD tbh .. I barely wear make-up, You'll catch me wearing Make-up at parties and outings.
Oh.. and i love collecting points from boots :D
Browsing through different brands .. I came across this new Max Factor Lip stick ..
it looked pretty nice ^^ so i thought I'd test it out .. obviously on my hands .. you'll never know who's been using them on their lips >.<
but it came out really nice ^^ It was sparkly, glossy and not sticky :)
Looking through all the different coloured eyeshadows .. I finally found one that matched the colours i was looking for for my halloween costume ^^


Ofcourse .. the most common halloween make-up involves the.. White face powder/paint!
so i went into the lanes and brought myself some white face paint.

Shopping in Meadowhall, I just couldn't resist going into Hollister! I love that shop soo much :)
although it is really pricey :( but sometimes they have some really good stuff in the clearance area ^^ .. for instance .. THIS TOP!! really good fabric material ..
^^ I love the feel of their fabric and smell of their new shirts :D

Last of all .. I just couldn't help but purchase a new pair of earmuffs from Accessorise!
I gotta admit.. I am pretty crazy for spending so much on just a pair of earmuffs lol
but really .. they are sooo cute! my mum totally objected me to buyin them .. T___T
she worries about everything .. she even worries about me wearing earmuffs for god sake!
She's like .. "OMG! You must not get them! they'r a waste of money .. and DANGEROUS TOO!! You could be wearing them and not hear the car beep so you might get hit by a car and diie!"
... ==" over dramatic or waaaht?!?!?! ... Its only a pair of earmuffs .. jesus lol
So yeah .. I didn't listen to her and got them myself with my own money xD
she hasn't found out yet ^^

So all these stuff i brought from Meadowhall came upto soo much .. sighh .. I was meant to be watching my money coz of my weekend in Loughborough >.<>

Earmuffs: £16
Max factor lipstick: £4.99 me thinks ..
Barry M eyeliner: £2.95
17 starry eyes: £4.99
Tony and Guy Texture Paste: £1.95
White face paint/powder: £3.50
Navy Blue Hollister T-shirt: £7.90

sighh ... i spent soo much that day :( to say I'll need it for the weekend lol
