2017 trip to Finland

So as my new annual tradition I travelled to Finland to visit Tessa and Tara. I appear to be going there earlier and earlier in the year; 2015 was in July, 2016 was in June and this year was April-May.
This year I went there to celebrate Vappu which for those of you who don't know is May Day. The first of May is celebrated by everyone but especially the students, who past and present wear the white graduation caps (You'll see them in the pictures below)
The traditional drink (non-alcoholic) is called Sima, if you saw it you would not want to drink it, honestly it does not look appealing but tastes so much better than it looks and they also have a traditional snack which I do not know the name of or what it is but it tastes like deep fried sugary goodness and I loved it.

Book Review: The Girl Of Ink & Stars by Kiran Millwood Hargrave

It was the cover that first made me want to read this book, then I read the blurb and felt compelled to buy the book. Boy am I glad I did.

Shadowhunters Tag

So if you know me you know that I am a *little* bit obsessed with every single thing about the Shadowhunter series (yes I am including the film adaptation too). So I felt this was an appropriate blog post for me to do.

The Procrastinating Beauty Blogger Tag

So Victoria did this on her blog (which you can find here) she tagged me to do this as well and I am only just getting round to typing this up now.

Make Up Revolution 3rd Birthday Party

Battle of the Make Up Brands

So I only posted yesterday, however I needed to share this rant with you all, so I apologise for posting two days in a row. 

Feminist Vs. Feminazi - Learn the difference

So I have noticed more and more lately the term 'Feminazi' is being used to describe every feminist and to be quite honest I am sick and tired of it. 

I am a Feminist. I am not a Feminazi.

My ultimate music playlist...

So I go through a lot of phases with my music. I can go four days straight listening to the same one song on repeat, then I'll go weeks with having my entire iTunes library on repeat. For the past week the songs I've had on constant repeat are Ed Sheeran's new album Divide plus All Time Low's new single, Dirty Laundry (which I saw them perform live 5 days ago, it was AMAZING!)

Makeup Obsession Brand Launch Event

Pokemon Go Book Tag

So I saw this tag on my friend's blog (http://booklover1989.blogspot.co.uk/) but she got the tag from https://readatmidnight.com/2016/07/18/pokemon-go-book-tag/

As books and Pokemon are two of my favourite things I felt it only right I do this tag too...

My love for Cassandra Clare books

So for those who know me well know that one of my favourite authors is Cassie Clare and I'm obsessed with every book she's ever written (even the ones she's only co-written). I think everyone should reads these books so I decided to do a blog post dedicated to why you should read these books.

Slam Dunk Festival North 2016

So me and Katie enjoyed year's Slam Dunk North so much that we decided to do it again this year. Last year it was my birthday present from her, this year I returned the favour (we're literally the best)

Also I was to pre-warn you that some of the pictures were saved from my Snapchat story, as you will probably notice anyway.

Trip up to Leeds for 5SOS

So after seeing 5 Seconds Of Summer at the O2 Arena in London on the Friday night, I spent the Saturday watching TV and relaxing and then Sunday I jumped on a coach up to Leeds and met up with Victoria in preparation for 5SOS in Leeds on Monday. We checked into our hotel, settled in, took some selfies and then walked down to Frankie and Benny's for dinner. Victoria got the Spaghetti Carbonara and I got my favourite which is the New Jersey Chicken.

Places I'd love to visit

So over the last couple of years I've visited various different places around the UK. I've been to Cardiff, Wolverhampton, Doncaster, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester plus all over London (considering I live there). Up until last year England and Wales was the extent of my travelling experiences but then I went to Finland. Now I'm addicted to travelling and I just want to get back on a plane again and see more places.

Day trip to Brighton.
