Days With Family

Hey guys!
So it's finally half term! I'm so excited for a week off school!

So last minute I decided to go to my friends boyfriend's 18th birthday party which was fun. He hired out a room upstairs from the pub which closed at 11 but then the pub didn't close to midnight so we didn't leave until then. I attempted to play pool which didn't go well because I can't play, but I can cheat because my friend was too drunk to notice;) Or just make up my own rules aka cheating. As I'm still 17 (not 18 until 17th July which sucks) I couldn't stay out but luckily I wasn't the only one as I got the 36 back home with my friend. Did you know that they've now started doing late night buses all the way up to about 3:15 in the morning I think. How amazing is that, especially as I go to school in Harrogate so most of my nights out will be in Harrogate and I feel so bad asking my parents to pick me up at like 1/2/3 in the morning. This guy was getting of the bus and he was so grateful to the bus driver and he thanked him so much because otherwise he would have to drive home; I thought that was super sweet.

This pun I made at the party last night deserves it's own paragraph because right hmm (let me set the scene) The pub owners had this ridiculously cute dog called Lucy which of course I obsessed over and my friend who I was with at the time. We were both stroking it and chatting to the owners (that's how carried away we got we legit followed it around the pub..) Anyway so then I said to my friend, she's just do adogable haha still cracks me up now oh god. My friend laughed but I'll never know if it was because she genuinely found it funny, for sympathy or if it was the alcohol inside her, but she was the type of person to laugh at that completely sober so I'm gonna pretend she genuinely found it funny. On a serious level (well as serious as it can get talking about puns), aren't they just so funny, unintentional puns are probably the best though. (Another example ofc) In photography my friend was sticking photos onto wood for this 3D effect and she said I don't know if this would work..get it 'would sounds like wood' yep I'm that person that explains the joke (sorry you had to be there okay..)

I have my Newcastle applicant day on Wednesday which hopefully will be good (fingers crossed I like the place) I haven't been there before but one of my friends recently went and he said it was really nice there. So I'll update you on how that goes next Sunday! Oh and typical me but I went into waterstones today and noticed Grace Helbig's (youtuber) books along with information on a book signing. That was the first I'd heard as I've been struggling to keep up with everything online but when I checked she only announced it a day ago so I wasn't that behind, but guess what day it's on...the same day as my applicant day. Luckily it's in the morning at 11 so if I go really early then I should be gone by 11:30/12 as you don't have to register until 1:50-2 which gives us enough time to get there. Although, apparently the accommodation is only available to view in the morning so I'm gonna miss that because of Grace..I mean priorities right?! Again sorry I promo so many youtubers but if I had to just recommend 1 video to watch of hers it would be 'reading mean comments w/ James Corden' as they make for such a hilarious pairing! So give that a watch and I guarantee you'll be laughing in a matter of minutes; that's a promise (as long as you have a sense of humour ofc)

Also so it's snowing again?! I have actually given up on snow, I do love it but not when it just snows for 10 minutes then turns into slush. I'm not asking for much, just for it to settle to a decent amount on the ground, we haven't had good snow in ages (in West Yorkshire anyway) because I know Scotland have had loads which yes I'm super jealous of. Part of me feels bad wanting snow because I heard how bad it got in some parts of America, I wouldn't wish that on anyone obviously and I just hope you're all safe now!

Yesterday I went to town (aka Leeds even though it's a city I still call it a town okay shush) with my mum because the last time we made an appointment to both have our makeup done by Benefits (expensive brand but high quality make up) So if you don't have much money I suggest you save up for their foundation or mascara etc because it'll last so much longer than if you have to keep buying cheap ones that don't last. Or you can continue buying cheap products I don't judge because I do as well (half of the time anyway) My mum got her makeup done by this really nice woman we spoke to about booking an appointment and I had this lovely funny girl who did my makeup so well. She did this lovely gold eye look with perfect eyeliner which I need to keep practising at because mine is no way near perfection (don't think it ever will be but aim high and all that shit) We even booked another appointment for the Easter holidays; we're too keen.. So I had my makeup done for when I went to the party, I mean why do your own makeup when you can get someone else to do it for free?!

We got free makeup bags, free makeup samples and free umbrellas so that was pretty good. Look how cute the umbrella was, I mean benefits had so much self promo on it but I still love it (yes me & my mum both posed with the umbrella when it wasn't even raining) Look how gorgeous my berry lip colour is, altough it still doesn't beat my bobbie brown crushed plum colour one because ugh that is just gorgeous!

(Yes the sun relfecting off of the umbrella does bug me but also I'm wearing my go to winter coat (from ark in leeds), my adorable read to me bag (from waterstones) and my new flowery vans (from office I think), oh and my denim dungarees (from topshop) which you can't really see but yeah I loved my outfit choice for once.

Have an awesome week off school & remember to make the most of it!
Talk soon
