BIG NEWS!




Yesterday, I found out that I actually got into my first choice Uni! Since my exams I was very prepared to not be going this year as they went horrible so I was fully expecting CEU buuuut I got BCD (which isn't as incredible as everyone who's like A*AB but whatever) and I'm finally going to be a teacher (which I've wanted to be since forever) and I get to live in my favourite city for at least the next 3 years! I keep crying because I'm super excited and I'm super excited to go to IKEA/home stuff shopping as I get my keys for my room in 22 days!

HAUL #1


Hi! First of all I'd like to apologise that the majority of the pictures need to be rotated, I just wanted to make a quick post and the site I used didn't have a rotate option, rubbish. Basically, I got paid and I thought I'd show you what I've bought this month :-)

001. t-shirt from H&M 
002. dress from Henry Holland at Debenhams (sale)
003. fruit teas from Asda (as I didn't want to pay like 3 times the price for Twinings incase I didn't like them but I do very much so!)
004. Lush's Tiny Hands 
005. Natural Collection blusher in 'Peach Melba'
006. Model's own 'Copper Pot'
007. Lush 'Cupcake' fresh face mask
008. Phone case from Ebay (the peach colour was the order on the seller's page and when it came it's this horrible baby pink (okay, it's not horrible I'm being dramatic but I'm not a pink fan at all and I rarely wear pink (I think I have one pink piece of clothing) so it doesn't go with anything and I'm actually really annoyed even though I only paid 99p for it purely because I waited like a month for it)
009. Hamsa hand from Ebay
010. 'The Little Book of Buddhism'
011. Captain America DVD (which I'd been waiting to come back in stock on Amazon/Play since my birthday (early June))
012. Topshop skirts in 'Jade' and 'Oxblood'
013. Hat from New Look for Winter
014. Topshop 'Amplified' boots (insert Emoji heart eyes face here)
015. PRESENTS FROM ALICE! (Okay, I'm super excited about all of these. 001. the 9th bear to add to my Minnie/Mickey bear collection with a little 'I <3 NY' top on, sqee! 002. Strawberry Fanta 003. Peanut Butter M&M's 004. PEANUT BUTTER OREOS - I can honestly say these are the nicest thing ever and I will be paying the £7 on American Soda for another pack when I have eaten all these. Oh good lord, they're like heaven.)
016. Signed copy of Priorities - Don Broco
017. Maybelline Forever Strong Pro nail polish in the mushroomy colour (it has no name, strangely)
018. Maybelline BB cream in Light & Maybelline Colour Tattoo 24hr cream eyeshadow in 05-Eternal Gold (this is an incredible colour)
019. New Look (p)leather jacket
020. Expedia email because I'M GOING TO DISNEY LAND PARIS/EURODISNEY (whatever). I nearly sob every time I think about it. I go 3 weeks tomorrow, 4th until the 7th of September, with Alice!!!!
