Childhood Memories

Hey people!

So on Thursday my clumsiness made yet another appearance (as if it doesn't enough) and I was just causally walking down my stairs and I fell on the top step and landed on my back, hit my head a couple of times and then it was so weird I sorta felt paralysed because I was still falling and I just couldn't get up so in the end I was left lying there crippled on the bottom step. The pain was so bad and my body's gut response is to burst into tears like I tried to stop the tears but the pain level was so excruciating I couldn't help it. Luckily I landed mainly on my back because otherwise I could have knocked myself out (I'm literally a hazard to myself)

Let's go back to childhood (let's be honest childhood was the best damn time and I wish I could go back to life without responsibility and so many worries..you get me?!) I found this picture of me of when I used to dance (specifically tap and ballet) and thought I must share it with you. Quick side note but I only did ballet for about a year when I was younger because I remember hating my dance teacher because she used to force me to push my feet into the penguin (erm I mean insert ballet jargon here) and I wasn't all about that life haha. I ended up carrying on with tap (and jazz..fancy I know) until about year 9 because I struggled/failed to balance school work. Also random note but I feel like everyone who only got glasses when they were in high school or end of primary school like me always look so different in pictures of them as a kid. For example I would say try spot me but I circled it because I posted it on snapchat for only 3 seconds so you'd have to be pretty skilled to find me in that little time. I think I look pretty different and I don't think anyone who didn't really know me would be able to spot me, unless some of you think you would be able to then props to you! 






How adorable was the green dress though, I must admit I think I do look pretty cute. I was such a smiley kid aww I sometimes miss dance but I think I just grew out of it. I think the most difficult thing is to keep a hobby you loved when you were younger to during and beyond being a teenager because when you are a teenager the hormones kick in (gotta love puberty..) and then all I actually wanted to do (I can't speak for others but I'd imagine you'd agree) was sleep or watch tv.







So let's talk about snapchat which has honestly becomes my favourite social media platform because right now that's the only one I actually manage to keep up to date with. It also just is so raw and honest due to obviously no editing so you can watch all your favourite people just be real for a second (and hopefully more than a second)

I watched this programme called 'The Brain with David Eagleman' which is basically a programme about the mind. This guy (episode 3 if anyone cares) strangled one of his in-laws until near death and stabbed the other in-law 5/6 times and so killed 1 of them but this all happened in his unconscious. When he regained consciousness he had no idea he did this and there was no ulterior motive because we found out he really liked them yet he killed one and strangled/nearly killed the other?! Turns out his family had a history of sleep disorders and he has one too so he got let out of trial free after being given medication to presumably put him in a deep sleep so that won't happen again. It's just so crazy the amount of stuff you can do without your brain being properly active (and of course pretty scary) so yeah I'll leave you with that lovely scenario in your head..)

Nah I'm not that harsh, to change to a much lighter note it's Mother's Day today. I drew my mum a card (kinda been a tradition in the Annett household also feel weird saying my family like that anyway basically me and my brother have always drawn my mum cards and dad for Father's Day and birthdays..basically any annual celebration..okay not everyone only mothers/fathers day, Christmas and birthdays okay longwinded point is over now I'm sorry) I found an image of 2 owls with 'guess whoooo loves you' and I found it pretty cute so I copied that. Also as you know I love puns and stuff like that so I couldn't resist. Oh and this Mother's Day I actually got my mum something pretty special (normally go to is chocolate or lush stuff, pretty standard right) but she's getting the iPhone 6 soon so she'll need a new case. I came across a pressed flower iPhone case and found a load more from asos (shoutout to the best brand..free returns!!) and fell in love, ordered this beautiful red and white pressed flowers case. I split the price with my brother which he probably didn't mind as that meant no hassle with deciding what to get (he did get the cutest cat card on the piano..not as personal as mine though)

So yet again the british weather is very confused because it's nearly Spring (or maybe is now idk) and it properly snowed for the first time last wednesday but of course I don't mind I love it! Yep you know me, I took several pictures, it was actually like 2 inches deep (that's an achievement for England okay..) Enjoy my entitled 'trying to be artsy' picture:
I also took a picture outside of a classroom in school just to show you how deep it actually was but sadly the snow was mostly slush by the end of the day. It never lasts for us (damn you climate change)






So anyway I should probably stop writing this and go spend time with family (apart from my brother because he's at uni)...















Hope you all enjoy Mother's Day and even if you don't have a mother/another parental type figure, again doesn't have to be blood related, just take some time today to spend some quality time with the people who truly love you! And if you're like no one does then you need to reevaluate because bitch of course I do! (If that's any consolation..probably not but just know you aren't alone because you know this kid on the internet appreciates the hell out of you!)
Okay so byeee
