Questions and answers...

Okay, so this is basically an updated "about me" because I haven't done one since I started this blog two years ago. I basically looked through a bunch of quesiton and answer posts off of other peoples blogs and threw together a nice long list of questions.

Me.
  1. Do you have any siblings?
    I do yeah, I have two brothers and two sisters. 
  2. How old are you? 
    I am 19 :)
  3. What's your height? 
    I think I'm 5"6
  4. Do you workout?
     
    Kinda, I try to do as many sit-ups and crunches as I can everyday, and I also try and walk instead of using trains/buses as much as I can. 
  5. Do you have any pets?  
    I don't no, although I did had a bunny called Buttons when I was younger and I have always lived with dogs as my parents always have them. I don't live at home anymore though and I can't have pets in my flat.
  6. What do you enjoy doing in your spare time?  
    drawing, singing, baking and binge watch netflix. 
  7. What do you feel is your greatest achievment? 
    I got a distinction in my grade 5 singing exam, and an A* in my music performance assessment. Which is pretty good for me because I'm not very lucky when it comes to getting good grades.
  8. What do you value most in life? 
    My family 
  9. What do you do? 
    I'm at uni, but I'm also looking for a part-time job.
  10. What is your dream job? 
    I'm not completely sure. I'd love to sing, that's my biggest dream, but, my main dream job is any career that I can help people in. I can't imagine myself sitting behind a desk because of my knee problem so idfk. Maybe I'll try out youtube, that would be perfect for me. 
  11. What did you take for your GCSE'S/in college? 
    For my GCSE's, I took catering, media studies and music. and in college I did applied science - boring af. 
  12. Do you make good grades? 
    no. I am one of them highly unfortunate people who studies their ass off and still gets awful grades. 
  13. Do you want to get married later on in life? 
    Not particularly. I don't like to feel trapped and that's basically what a marriage is, and tbh, I'd rather not be trapped with one person for the rest of my life, I'd end up spending every day riddled with anxiety. 
  14. Do you have any phobias? 
    fucking..omg, yes. Heights are just, ew. And spiders, moths and daddy long legs, I'd rather not. 
  15. Have you ever been abroad? 
    nope *sigh*

Beauty/Shopping. 
  1. Heels or flats? 
    I adore wearing heels but fuck, they hurt far too much so imma go with flats.
  2. Where do you buy most of your clothes from? 
    As I'm a student, I'm therefore a poor fucker and can only afford to buy clothes from primark, new look and H&M. 
  3. Favourite drugstore makeup brand? 
    Rimmel London and Maybelline cosmetics. 
  4. Favourite nail polish brand? 
    Barry M. 
  5. What was your first makeup item? I think it was a Barry M lipgloss or something. 
  6. At what age did you start wearing makeup? 
    I was either 12 or 13, started off basic with a pretty crappy eyeliner and mascara. 
  7. Do you wear falsies? If so which brand? 
    nope. 
  8. How do you take care of your hair? 
    I make sure I wash it every 4 days because then it's still getting it's natural oils that it needs, but it's always getting kept clean - don't want to wash it too often. I also use two hair serums, a dove one (that isn't available in the UK, I got mine in a poundshop because the langauge on the bottle is in a different language) and a john freida one. I also make sure to use a deep conditioning hair mask every week and, I mainly use one called Roots from Lush. I'm not the best at caring for my hair though as I do dye my hair quite a lot. 
  9. Whats the colour of your natural hair? 
    I think my natural colour is a mousy brown. 
  10. What are your views on plastic surgery? 
    if it's what makes you happy then go for it, just don't go too far...one lip filler is fine, it looks nice, but 5 looks tacky - know the limit. But ye, I'm considering it myself. 
  11. Do you bite your nails? 
    ew no. 

Random Bits and Bobs

    Ryan Reynalds, Ryan Kwanten, Ruby Rose, Shay Mitchell, Jensen Ackles. - this was so difficult because like, what about Jude Law? Alex Pettyfer? Lily Collins?

Fifty Shades of Grey Rant and Cover Ideas.

I must admit, I'm getting sort of stuck on what to post about lately, I think that's why I stopped blogging last year. But, I'm just going to see where this post takes me until I come up with some better ideas.
Okay, so right now I'm listening to the playlist that spotify made for me of my top 100 played songs of last year and seriously, I don't recall listening to half of these songs. But, on the topic of music, I have been trying to find the perfect song to do a cover of recently but I can't find anything. I've tried Sam Smith, Sia, Birdy, John Legend, Bring Me The Horizon and Rihana but nothing seems right and is comfortable to sing in my current living conditions. So, if anyone has any ideas of songs for a soprano vocalist to cover then let me know? thanks.
Really looking forward to posting my february favourites at the end of this month, been adding to it everytime I buy and try out something new and i'm really enjoying it so far, it makes me want to buy myself new things all the time.
How many of you are going to see the Fifty Shades of Grey movie? I personally won't be going to see it or support it in any way at all. After seeing some of the things that are included in that movie (I never read the book), I decided that it was definitely not the kind of thing I wanted to support. I mean, I completely understand what people mean when they say that there are plenty of other movies that promote the same sort of things but most of the time, those sort of things are represented as a bad thing, like the bad guy will rape someone, or sexually abuse someone, and when it is represented in a positive way, it's not to the same extremes as FSoG, And, I also understand people when they say that other movies support other things, like I saw one person say that The Hunger Games supports child labour and war or some bulls**t like that, and if you want to have that point of view then good for you, but at the end of the day, it f**king doesn't, and even if it did, it's a bloody fantasy movie. I mean, for gods sake, have you even watched it? The people in it are ridiculous, it's a fantasy movie, not a supposed "romantic" movie.
