When is it time to quit my job.

2014-03-26T19:30:00.000Z

This is a question I ask myself more often than not recently.
Sometimes I get so frustrated thinking we all have to work and most of the time do things that we just DON'T want to do, just to be able to do the things we do want to do!

If I were a millionaire I would invest most of my time in hobbies, maybe setting up a small business of my own selling pretty notebooks or something, I would donate money to local children's homes and volunteer a day of my week to something I feel worth while.

I feel like I am young now and by the time I have finished university, got experience, saved for a mortgage and all those other 'adult' things I will have lost my youth and chance to explore the world. So why am I not doing it? Other than the fact I can't afford it, why do I continue to waste my time doing things I would rather not do when I could be dedicating more of my time to things I do like doing, such as blogging!

There is another side of me however that does think that if I do work hard now it will pay off in a few years when I am settled in my very own house and have a steady job that I enjoy, but it doesn't stop me thinking about what it is really like to be a millionaire, to be able to say hey shall we go travelling or hey lets set up a business.

I like this quote because it is true, I hope one day will come where I love leaping out of bed and getting myself to work! Maybe one day!
What do you think ?

Lets Do this!

2014-03-25T14:40:00.000Z

Hi there everyone, would just like to thank all my followers for following me and hopefully taking an interest in what I post. I'm going to be making a few changes to my blog very soon and hope that I can keep you all on board.

I want to make my blog so that more people can get involved with what I post! I just need to figure out how I do this. I was thinking to maybe have my email contactable so people can send me stories or their blog so I can share them or help them promote on my blog :) I want this blog to be about posting anything and not caring about what other people think! I want to make it a blog where everyone can share stories and experiences or promote something they are doing to help them get off the ground!

Well that will be all for now... lets get this show on the road!

If you would like to contact me regarding anything I just said please do on lolhem@hotmail.co.uk thank you!

A Quick question to all you bloggers...

2014-03-24T19:10:00.002Z

Hello there fellow bloggers,

I just wanted to know, are any of you having trouble following people through Google friend connect or is it just me? I am trying to figure out if its something I'm doing or if blogger is experiencing some technical difficulties. :)

Pretty Tattoos, for girls!

2014-01-29T10:19:00.000Z

I myself don't yet have any tattoo's, nor do I know if I will ever get one. Simply because I am a very particular person and am scared that once I get one I will like it for a month then go off it like most of the clothes in my wardrobe! I do like tattoo's and like them on other people (sometimes I must admit). I haven't seen many, especially on women that I have thought WOW I JUST LOVE THAT. But there are a few that I have come across on the internet that I actually do like! Here they are...

1: Feathers

Peacock Feather: It looks pretty and colourful. It compliments this lady's figure which is also a plus! If this tattoo was on her arm it just wouldn't have the same effect!

Pastel Feather: his looks so feminine and delicate I absolutely love this one and love the position of it also!

Peacock: You can't see all of this tattoo but it is still awesome! I love the shape of it and also the detail that has gone into it!

2: Dream Catchers

This is the best one I have seen! Love the position and the flowers and EVERYTHING.

I like the blue in this one and the shape of the feathers.

I like the position of this one because most of the dreamcatchers on the back that I have seen they are too far up on the back, but I think this is 'hanging in the right place'

3: Sugar Skull

Personally I wouldn't get this one although I do really like it because it is so colourful!

And the same with this one!

Justin Bieber - Is he going to be another classic childhood star?

2014-01-29T09:13:00.002Z

So as I am sure we all know, Justin Bieber is getting a lot of bad publicity at the moment. His recent antics such as allegedly speeding while under the influence and taking illegal drugs. Some have said that Biebers father is to blame for encouraging antics such as drag racing and apparently helping to block off the road he was racing down!
He has sparked outrage from thousands of people by smiling in his mug shot following his arrest.

I think many of Bieber's actions over the past months have been wrong but do they deserve people saying that they want him killed? I think many people are happy that Justin has given them something solid for them to hate him for, although, having the status he does he should use it to convey a positive message to the public and his many adolescent fans.

Americans are already signing petitions to get him deported from america, of which has already accumulated over 50,000 signatures. They say that he is creating a bad image for american pop culture and setting a bad example to the young people growing up there.

It seems that like many other childhood stars such as Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears, Justin is heading for disaster! Some might say that the influence of Justin's father plays a crucial role in his outrageous behaviour as some psychologists say that when child stars parents start to try to get into the lime light along side their child star and live their dreams through their child therefore the child is forever trying to think of ways to get away from them.

Is he just fed up of people calling him a girl and saying that he has not yet reached puberty? Is he trying to prove that he is a bad boy or maybe to promote a new album?

Who knows why Justin Bieber is acting this way. All I can say is I hope he can learn to appreciate all he good he has in his life, and for the general public not to act so aggressively about the situation.

INSTAGRAM: I'll follow you!

2013-04-25T11:49:00.000+01:00

Hey my pretty people! So most people have Instagram right? Well so do I and I'd love to see yours. I love Instagram it really shows off peoples personality's and lifestyles, and just their artistic nature in general. I want to get to know all of my followers also so If you ever follow me on anything I surely will follow you back! Heres a few of my Instagram pictures!

POST YOUR INSTAGRAM IN THE COMMENTS AND I WILL FOLLOW YOU :D CHOW!

Beautiful Bikini's

2013-04-21T15:44:00.002+01:00

I love bikini's and there are some absolutely gorgeous bikini/swimwear photography on the internet that I came across the other day, so scenes the sun is coming out here in the UK and people are starting to book their holidays I thought you'd like to see some :D

Too bad I can't afford a holiday this year! Oh I may as well take my chance to say that I do not support thigh gaps, unless you have them naturally. I like the legs to meet and do not like it when girls purposely starve themselves and over exercise to make their body's that way :D

A Bad Review

2013-04-18T10:42:00.000+01:00

I'm sorry I am posting negatively but there is a product I am not too impressed with.
Maybelline New York Fit Me Liquid Foundation SPF 18 30ml

I bought this thinking it was going to be great, but unfortunately I have found it really oily on my skin and it seemed really watery. So I'd put it on and look in the mirror not long after and it has gone all patchy and clung to all the wrong places on my face, like around my nose and eyebrows. Also If you added powder to it strange dark patches would appear on my face!

I am a big fan of many Maybelline products, but I will not be wasting my money on this one again.

Cutest baby animals!

2013-04-08T16:36:00.000+01:00

This is just a small collection of baby animal pictures I have found and loved on the internet! Enjoy!

2013-03-06T13:13:00.001Z

My little sister's Adele cover!

2013-02-21T17:01:00.000Z

Hey guys! So I have been at my boyfriends all day today -not unusual. What was unusual was that we were filming my little sister Olivia singing a cover of Adele's song -Turning tables. She has a gorgeous voice especially for a fourteen year old, so make sure you check her out and share your support! It would mean a lot to me! We will probably be making more of these in the future also so keep checking back!

Thank you followers!

2013-02-11T16:34:00.001Z

Hey everyone, it's been a while since my last post, I do apologise, I have moved back to Birmingham from Middlesbrough (uni stuff) and I've been a complete fool and forgot my laptop charger, I've been putting off doing a post on my iPad because I like making things on photoshop etc.
Well anyway I would just like to say a massive thank you to all of my new followers, as soon as I get back on track properly I can hopefully provide you with some better quality blog posts, as always any comments and feedback are much appreciated! It's snowing here again oh the joys :)

Dress Blue: MissSelfridge

2013-01-31T13:08:00.001Z

I was browsing around on my favourite shop, MissSelfridge and realised there are some gorgeous new clothes in! So I was going to do a post called New in at MissSelfridge until I realised that there were so many blue items -particularly baby blue- that were gorgeous. So I changed the post name to dress blue :) These are some of my fave's but of course there are many more gorgeous items of clothing, and because theres new in, theres a SALE with up to 50% off!

I guess this is my lifestyle post :)

2013-01-28T18:17:00.002Z

Holaaaaa everyone, I don't have any new interesting make up to talk about or a mental new hairstyle, but I want to keep posting, basically I was wondering the other day, what posts do people like to read? I like all sorts from reviews, to snippets of peoples lives/hobbies and what they eat etc.
Although, whenever I begin to write a post about my life I decide its not what blogger's want to read, but I suppose this is my blog, and I do like writing, so why the hell not! Better something than nothing right! So I am going to post a few photos, talk about them and talk about what my week consisted of! And I'm posting a question at the bottom so make sure you answer it!

Last week when I did my shopping I thought, RIGHT, now is the time to get healthy, I feel like a slug and I don't like it! Also I recently found out how low on iron I was so I knew my diet had to change, I did a bit of research on the internet and found out a bit more about the foods I should be eating, rather than the foods I want to eat! Among some of the healthiest foods were mussels, salmon, broccoli, and watercress, I don't mind salads and veg, but MUSSELS! I do not like one bit! I eventually plucked up the courage to eat some, and it was not nice! The only thing I was thinking about the whole time was how much iron these baby's contain! I learned TONS about how healthy food can give you a healthy mood ;) so I am glad I decided to do it, I feel better already!

Me and my boyfriend wanted to get in some of the snow action, so when it started snowing all night we thought, take the opportunity and get yourselves out there. So at 2-3AM me and the beyfriend were out gallivanting in the freshly laid snow and we also had some fun with how the street lights looked on my camera!

Finally, this is the part where I confess how much of a saddo I am, okay so I love playing Bloons tower defense 5, and I was super happy the other day because I actually got to level 111, that is a great level to get to, unfortunately I didn't get a print screen of me dying, but I did get a print screen of level 104 :) so here it is, sorry in advance for the people who have no clue what I'm on about! hehe
What you see here is a track full of massiveee balloons that I am destroying! With all my little monkeys and boats and explosions haha! So that is about it, mak sure you give me some feedback on the questions I've posted below and I'll be sure to get back to you!

QUESTIONS: What is your geeky little hobby?
What food do you hate?
What kind of posts do you lik to read?

Lipstick Review: Maybelline New York ColourSensational

2013-01-24T17:02:00.002Z

I went out yesterday and bought some new makeup essentials! Amongst what I bought, are two gorgeous Maybelline ColourSensation Lipsticks, and a pretty little lip liner to go along with them, so here they are...

'Summer pink is what I chose for my daytime look, its pretty and not too overpowering! Every girl loves pink! 'midnight plum' is my night time colour, it looks so mysterious ad would look sooo good with a smokey eye! The outer packaging (which I forgot to take a photo of but you can see the midnight case at the bottom right of the photo) Are quite nice actually because the pink colours had pink cases and the darker ones had dark cases, so you know which one you want to use without looking at the bottom every time!

I love them and they feel soooo smooth and lovely, and I couldn't possibly pick a favourite because they will both be used for different times in the day! Oh and the lip liner I used for both was just a natural kind of shade that would bring out the most in the colours!

Review: Live Colour xxl Hypnotic Red

2013-01-22T16:11:00.002Z

Hello my beautiful friends! So I died my hair this colour last night, and wanted to do a quick little review on it! :) My natural hair colour is Auburn so, its kinda a duller shade of this to be honest, so I want too nervous as some might be! I was really excited when I got it, mixing and applying it was as easy as any other really, putting it in your hair is always a task but that is expected really.I waited the half an hour which seems to go on forever and washed it out finally, dried it etc, and the only way I can really show you the outcome is in pictures. All I will say though is that I am really happy with the results and EXTREMELY happy with the coverage as I can safely say there is no area that it hasn't covered -please note that I have thinner hair than most though.

My natural hair colour: Say hello to my boyfriend hehe!

My hair colour before I died it: Faded red :) -But still quite nice might I add XD

The colour after :D - Verry happy! Sorry about the poor lighting though, it is redder!

I love the colour, especially in daylight, plus its made my hairreally shiny, you can't really tell on the photograph, it looks much healthier than before and of course Redder! If you want to die your hair this colour I would reccomend, It would be a brighter red on blonde hair but even dark brown hair you will still be able to see the red!

Please and Thank you are still magic words!

2013-01-20T15:49:00.002Z

Hey guys! I just want to say a ~~massive~~HUMUNGOUS thank you to all of my beautiful new followers! You make me want to blog more, I love waking up in the morning to see if I have any more readers. Not only that though, all the beautiful comment's really do make me smile! I just packaged my first give away item, and added a cute little surprise! I really cant wait to do another giveaway, I think I will do one when I reach 200 followers.
My boyfriend had a great birthday yesterday, he loved all his presents, we went to the cinema and grabbed something to eat, which was lovely of course! I love special occasions, and I love buying presents! I am not so sure what I will be doing today, probably just relax and do some blogging stuff, so if you want me to check out your blog, comment below and I surely will have a look!

My one beauty wish this week would have to be the Revlon, super lustrous lipstick, ohhh it looks so lovely and, well lustrous I guess, and I would love to get my hands on some, do you reccomend these? Or any other lipsticks you adore, I have seen Revlon's new lip stain range, they look awesome but I'm too scared to try them, I do like lip stains I just sometimes find if you apply more than one layer it starts to look strange :D Check them out at Revlon's Website

The kittens are up to no good, obviously, climbing all over my tables and chairs! Sometimes they are real naughty and other times they just want a bit of attention, I found them the other day eating my cooked breakfast off the table, who knew cats like eggs? haha! They are extra cute though, I took these photos with my Cannon Powershot Sx40hs which is a great camera! Brilliant photos with or without flash, I would definitely reccomend it to anyone looking for a decent camera!
