Where have I been? Just about everywhere...

 So, I haven't posted since...gosh, I don't even know when! I have been looking forward to November for months, I've had so many exciting things planned! Which made it even more devastating to find out that my school scheduled mock exams through November... 10 to be precise. It could be worse, but it was by no means fun!

  November has also brought me my first part-time job working at my riding school. Now, its not very glamorous, but as an animal lover, it couldn't be better!
Poor Penny can't even stay awake the whole day...
  Anyway, before all of that was the preplanned parts to November. My friend, Becky and I  had booked tickets to see Gabrielle Aplin. I'm sure I've mentioned her before, because I absolutely love her and her music, and to be honest she was even better live! Becky and I couldn't contain our fan girl side, so I'm sorry to the people we were stood near, but... it is a concert.  Anyway, strongly, strongly recommend you check her out.



 Then, the week after we made our way back to O2 Academy, and I was so so so excited about this, to see IMAGINE DRAGONS!!!! Now, they are one of my all time favorite bands, and do not get half the amount of radio play they deserve, and they are the best live band I've ever seen! The atmosphere was amazing, and everyone was so excited that I almost ended up in a mosh pit (not a good idea for such a short girl)!Have a look!



  Finally, I went to London!! Just yesterday, I was in London with school, admittedly it was with school, and meant to be educational, but I was with my friends,how could it not be fun?
  So, that's my November... Have a happy December!

Embracing Autumn| A Weekend in Bowness

  Last week I went to Bowness for the very first time, with my Mum and her fiance, Steve. Honestly, I didn't really know what to expect, hills? Trees? But I was presently surprised with a perfect mix of countryside and highstreet; it was lovely! A well needed escape before my exams and the Christmas busstle.

  The Lake District is beautiful this time of year, it's just a burst of Orange and Red (but it was pretty dam cold!). Also, to say we were only there a weekend, we did a hell of a lot! We went shopping, drank in cute little cafes, walked, and went to the oldest little cinema I've ever been in! So, I'll leave you with some holiday snaps...




















Have a great weekend,

Embracing Autumn| A Potty Halloween Party

  Right now, I should probably be revising for my English exam... but this kind of counts, right? Anyway, I had to fill you in on an amazing little get together we had on Halloween night!

  We went to my lovely friend's house, Becky, who threw a (spectacularly British but amazing) Harry Potter themed party, because well... its what us Britons obsess over. I have to say, she really went to town and made everything so cool I can't even describe it, but I think the pictures speak for themselves...

The Deathly Hallows...

We're all true Gryffindors!



Olivander's wand/straws




Trip to Honeydukes anyone?

  We had such a good time, thanks Becky it was incredible!
Expeliarmus!!!!!
