fancy restaurants

31.5.14






So, as you know, if you've read my most recent post, I'm in a treehouse resort thingy in Hampshire, well I left yesterday, and on Tuesday we went to the most AMAZING place everrrr. It's this hotel/restaurant with the hugest front garden ever with a swing and everything. The inside of the restaurant ( I think it was called The Pig ) was designed as a greenhouse ( glass roof, lots of plants ). The atmosphere was so relaxing, and as for the food, WOW. It was honestly the best I've ever tasted. So, if you're ever in Hampshire and you can somehow find this restaurant, PLEEEAAAASE at least have a look around. They also had this mint and vanilla apple juice which sounds grooosss, but it's delicious. I'll probably post the recipe in a few days. Yup - I was so obsessed I asked the guy at the bar for a recipe.

country walks

29.5.14







CUE CHEESY NATURE PHOTOGRAPHS. At least the weather was sunny for once. I had my camera with me so I thought it was the perfect opportunity to take some nice photos - the country near the treehouse is so beautiful. From now on, I'm trying to be adventurous with outfit posts, so please let me know if you like seeing this sort of post.
For some reason the computer I'm using doesn't let me copy links so I can't provide links for what I'm wearing so I apologise for that.

Jacket - Topshop
Shorts - Primark
Shirt ( pyjama top ha ) - Jack Wills
Sunglasses - car boot sale

42 things to do after exams

28.5.14

It's that time of year again. The exams. Excuse me while I go vomit. I actually have no clue what I'm doing when it comes to revision - it's got to the stage where I'm in the middle of making a set of flashcards for a subject on quizlet and I end up doing 3 honesty hours on ask.fm. Aside from this, there's NO time to do posts, and I'm in a place with really crappy wifi for 5 days. I'm really sorry I haven't posted in like a month, so I'll do my best to do a few more posts before my exams start, which is Monday. I'm in this treehouse place somewhere in Devon and I took lots of photos so once I upload them I'll do a post.

how to survive a sick day




Sick days. We all have them and nobody likes them. Except if you're faking it to get off a big maths exam - we've all done that too. I've been sick for the last two days and I'm ashamed proud to say I finished Ugly Betty on Netflix ( I am actually so upset that it's finished ) and started Sherlock which is THE ONLY SHOW I'VE SEEN WHICH HAS THAT MUCH SUSPENSE WHICH IS NOT NEEDED ( apart from the Woman in Black dur ). But even though sick days may get me off school, I still hate them as they can get so unbelievably boring. So this is how I survive them and I hope it helps you if you're coughing and sounding like you're choking like me :)

Read - is this where people throw rotten fruit at me? Even though it sounds boring there are some really good books out there. For example, divergent, the fault in our stars ( is there really any need to mention the authors?! ). If fiction isn't for you and you like more fashion/autobiographies etc PLEASE READ 'IT' BY ALEXA CHUNG.

Sleep - no explanation needed. Just you, a snuggly blanket and your dreams.

Make some tea - herbal tea is really nice if you're sick as it relaxes you and it doesn't have as much sugar as regular tea ( considering you take sugar in your tea... who doesn't?! ). My favourite at the moment is peppermint tea but I love chamomile and vervain.

Netflix/telly - haha. duh. If you don't have Netflix please get the free trial or actually just get it because it's sooooo good. You basically watch as many shows and movies as you like and you pay the same price each month ( I use my grandpa's account so I don't know what the overall price is but probably around £10 per month? ). They have just about everything on there, and I've discovered some of my favourites ( ugly betty, family weekend, the vampire diaries ( don't judge it's emotional and I love Damon )). If you can't be bothered to get Netflix ( well you're dumbbb ) my favourite channel to watch is comedy central, mainly entirely because of Friends. If it's not on, I'll turn off the telly and cry. Is it sad I've got I'll be there for you on my spotify playlist??

Listen to music - I recent got spotify so I listen to most music on there. Some of my favourites at the moment are:
Full Circle by Half Moon Run
Somebody Told Me by The Killers
Lonely Hearts Club by Marina and The Diamonds
Funhouse by Pink
Ain't It Fun by Paramore
4x4 by Miley Cyrus
Knee Socks and Snap Out Of It by The Arctic Monkeys
Rihanna by Clean Bandit

I'm sorry if this was boring - this post turned out to be a lot longer than I was expecting.

why tumblr annoys me

27.5.14


Can I just start by saying I don't get tumblr. At all. I tried making an account once and it was so frustrating not being able to find the right style of photo I wanted. And now, for some reason, my phone isn't letting me download the app which is frustrating also. So, I guess I'll have to deal with typing tumblr 'insert chosen theme here' pictures into google images and wish for the best. That was my tumblr rant, I'm not sure what the purpose of this post was. Probably just to put these pictures somewhere because I really like them.
