One Direction, hehe

So! I've certainly had a jam-packed few days. In fact, I was snowed in on the first day off as I had a sleepover with my friends and we ended up staying for three days due to the incessant snowfall throughout the entire day. We managed to do a lot, including cooking a proper roast with all the trimmings, cooking tomato soup, taking photographs, walking the dog, going out in the snow. One blemish on the otherwise faultless few days was that I dropped my sister's camera and it broke :-( I feel really guilty, but I'll be getting her a new one, but it's pretty sucky news.

Anyway, moving on, then on the Monday, we traipsed to my friend's house for her birthday. We went out for curry and had a generally lovely time. I had a chicken tikka masala, garlic naan and rice, which was actually really nice considering I'm not really into my spices. Then we had another sleepover, played scrabble at 2 in the morning and watched Kick-Ass which was a lot more gory than I imagined. Being someone who is extremely squeamish, I spent a lot of time doing my crossword and Sudoku.

As well as that, I went into town on Tuesday and on the top floor of Selfridges was... Liam Payne! For those who don't reside in the UK or simply don't watch the X Factor, he's one of the dudes from One Direction. I don't particularly like him, but the band were okay singers and I did quite like them in the X Factor, so my sister and I got a picture:

I look pretty awful, but it was a cool opportunity as there aren't too many celebrities in Birmingham. Here are a few other photos from the past few days as well :-)

So, those are just a few photos of the last few days. I'm gonna be spending loads of time with my family now and I'm off to Oxford tomorrow where I'll be spending Christmas with the family. I'll also be heading off to London and Manchester (hopefully) after that! I hope no-one's Christmas plans have been called off due to the dreaded snow and I wish you all a very very Merry Christmas! Happy blogging!

And my last note is about a certain lady named Anisha The Pizza who has an absolutely amazing blog which you should all visit. Anisha used to have a joint blog with her friend, but slowly turned to tumblr, but it is my pleasure to see that she is back to the good old blogosphere! She's a friend I know from school whose interest for music, art and fashion never ceases to give us something to talk about. Moreover, our love for tennis and James Franco is another thing we have in common :-) But don't let me try and pinpoint her exuberance with my God-awful descriptive skills, find out for yourself - you won't be disappointed. :-)

Postcards From Italy

2 days left of school... And counting! I am honestly so psyched for the Christmas holidays now, where I can do whatever I want and meet up with people. My family are also coming over from various corners of the globe and it's gonna be a fantastic time, I can already tell. Anyway, not much to report apart from I'm going to have a busy few days to celebrate the Crimbo hols!

On the Friday that we break up, I'm going to my friend house and we're all having our own mini Christmas and a roast which will be so lovely! Then we're sleeping over and doing loads of sleepover type things. Then on the Monday, it's my other friend's birthday, where we're gonna go out to a restaurant for curries. Then on Tuesday, after the sleepover, I'm going out to town and make a stop at the annual German Market as well, so I'm gonna be busy busy busy!

Anyway, here are some pictures that have been hiding away in my 'Random' picture folder and I thought I'd share them since I haven't had much chance to take any of my own lately. :-)

Hope everyone's well and enjoying themselves in the run up to Christmas! Will be back very soon with lots of pictures of my own, hopefully! Happy blogging!

Freefallin'

It's official. I suck at blogging! I'm only managing like one a week, but I'm sure that once the holidays roll around, I'll be able to get back into it. It's just that school is still as relentless as ever, with loads of tests to revise for, etc. But, on the flip side, there are only two more weeks left of school!

Here's some of my art work to show you, because I've had no chance to do ANYTHING else which is productive or creative. Hopefully in the countdown to Christmas, I'll have some (hopefully) inspirational outfit posts, etc. Anyway, here's my art project:

Anywho, I'm off to do some constructive stuff and then watch a film. Be back later to check out my fave blogs. I'll be back to my normal self soon, promise! Happy blogging!
