Day 2-3 of half term: Essex

On saturday I stayed over at my brothers house in Essex for the first time. I met up with his fiance and we went to Tinsel town for milkshakes (I had a munchies one). Then after stocking up on snacks we popped in season one of vampire diaries and watched 3-4 episodes. We ate dominos and watched You don't mess with the Zohan before going to bed.

I must warn if it is cold near you (snow or ice lurking around) then don't wear fashion tights. I guess most of you already know that but I thought I'd be able to get away with it and i was freezing! Mum welcomed me home with a sunday roast and a warm house :P I caught up on last weeks OBEM (Very emotional as usual) and after looking at kiddiecare.com and a variety of related things online (Don't ask) I soon went to bed.

Hope your all well!

How did you spend you weekend?

Day 1 of Half Term: Shopping

 Today I went shopping  with the main purpose of buying birthday cards although I picked up a few other things as well. The top photo is things I bought in my local charity shop and the picture above is from town. First I went to my town centre and as well as cards I picked up some stationary for school as I have been very de-motivated recently and ended up flopping my Spanish test. This is because stress and exhaustion finally hit me hard and had me crawly towards half term this week as I was so tired. I don't usually do really bad at tests but Spanish was awful as I wrote barely a paragraph but luckily my teacher has given me a chance to redo it when I go back to school.

So while I was in WHSmith I also picked up the ELLE magazine for March which came with a free soap and glory mascara. I really really really wanted this mascara and last time I went shopping I meant to buy it but it was out of stock so I ended up buying Rimmel Scandal Eyes as it was on sale. But then I heard that it came free in this magazine and as the mascara is originally £10 and the mag is under £4 I snatched up the chance to get my hands on it even if it is missing the cute vintage packaging.

On my way home I stopped at my local charity shop and picked up a dress (£5), a puzzle (£2.50),a bracelet (50p) and Garfield DVD (£1). Recently I'v really wanted some wintry dresses and skirts but haven't found any good ones, I ended up buying this dress even though its summery, I like it and I think its brand new as it has its original tags on it. I think the puzzle is the first I have ever bought (Not including my mini puzzleball) but I felt as it's half term it would be nice to do so i picked out one of the vintage designs. I just picked up Garfield as it was only a pound and I haven't watched it in a while.

Hope you are all well!

Camden Town

 

Hello! Sorry I haven't posted in a little while, I wanted to blog on Saturday but I was delayed. 

On Friday I went on an art trip to Camden and The Tate Gallery, I have been to the Tate many times before but I haven't been to Camden since I was toddler so that was the interesting part. Me and my friends went around Camden taking lots of pictures and trying to find any good bargains, one of my friends was good at haggling so she helped, although I only picked up a blue ring for £3 similar to these. My favourite shops were the really girly ones (pictured above), I have never come across such an amount of pretty clothes all gathered in one shop! It was a very interesting and fun day :)

Then of course it snowed on Saturday and everyone hoped that it would continue until this week to whisk away the last of our school days before half term. Unfortunately it hasn't and so there's still plenty of work to do, including my Spanish test on Wednesday. :(

Hope your all enjoying the 'exotic' weather.
