BLOGMAS DAY TWENTY-ONE: FEELING HAPPY!

Saturday, 21 December 2013
So this is a bit of a random post today but I didn't know what to write about so I decided to tell all you guys about certain aspects of my life that are starting to look up! For a while I've been very stressed due to school work and family and friend issues, but recently things have turned around a lot!

1: School

School has now finished as its the Christmas holiday's (eek) but I finally feel like I'm on top of everything. All the exams I've recently had, I feel like I've done well and any results I've got have been B+! I don't mean to blow my own trumpet but I am quite proud of myself and hope that over the next year and a half I can keep it up!

2: Friends

For some reason, probably because of all the stress at school, I seem to have fallen out with a lot of my friends, but luckily, we've all made up! All the petty little problems that seemed to matter so much to me a few weeks ago, don't matter at all now, and I can now say, I trust every single one of my friends and I really don't know what I'd do without them!

3: Family

In the past year, there have been A LOT of issues in my family, but they have all seemed to sort themselves out I the past few weeks and everyone seems to be a lot happier and in the festive spirit so yay! This makes me super happy as I love my family so much and wish them all the best.

4: KATRINA

I don't know if many of you know but one of my best friends (not Amy) moved up to Scotland a few years ago. Her name's Katrina and we've been best friends since we were 7. I went on holiday with her earlier this year and we had so much fun, but I was very sad when I had to leave her :( But now I am so happy as a couple of days ago, I found out that she coming down to Devon for New Years Eve and staying at mine, I'm so excited! She is honestly one of the best people in my life and I don't know what I'd do without her! I'm especially happy as I didn't think I'd be seeing her for a while, being that I we live about 600 miles apart!

So that's all the good things in my life right now and I can finally say and mean it when I do, I'm in such a good place in my life! This year has been quite difficult for me, but I can definitely say that I've come out of it stronger! And on top of all that, Christmas is in four days! YAY!

I hope you enjoyed this slightly different post, I'm going to end it with a quote I find very apt for this subject as, although I feel like everything's falling into place in my life, I know that will be more obstacles to overcome, but that's okay.

'Happiness is a mood, a feeling, a condition, not a destination. It's like being tired or hungry, its not permanent. It come and goes and that's okay, we all struggle sometimes.'

BLOGMAS DAY FIFTEEN: MEETING FATHER CHRISTMAS!

Sunday, 15 December 2013
Hello! Today's post I'm going to tell you what I've done today, as you can probably guess from the title, it was very exciting! I met Santa! I really shouldn't be so excited about that, being that I'm 14 and all but, hey, who cares, right? It's Christmas, if you can't be childish then, when can you be?!

I woke up at 8:30 (ugh) which was definitely the worse part of the day as I am a firm believer that Sunday's are lie in days, I wasn't happy. We were up and out of the door by 9:30 as we had to go and pick up my eldest sister, my baby niece Ivy and my nephew Brandon. Once we had crammed everyone into the car we were off! (Just to let you know, the event where you could meet Santa was at a local department store, I'm not going to say where, security reasons and all!)

Unfortunately it was pouring down with rain so we had to wait outside for them to open the doors in a mini storm - fun times! When they had finally let us in, each family were given table names and then shown to our seats. At the tables, there were Christmassy drawings to colour in, party popper, crackers, balloons etc. There was no way you could be bored!

We then got to choose what we had for breakfast - I had pancakes with blueberries and raspberries on top, it was delicious! After finishing our breakfasts, Father Christmas made an appearance! He came round to every single table to say hello to the children and to take pictures with them. Brandon, my nephew, was very happy as Father Christmas came to our table first and gave him a present! It's safe to say, Brandon was very happy.

Whilst Father Christmas was saying hello to the rest of the children, a magician came round to each table to entertain them. He did a few magic tricks and then made us a balloon animal hat each, he was actually pretty good!

After that you could choose what you wanted to do, you could either stay at your table and do some colouring, go and make some Christmas decorations with Santa's Elves, or play pin Rudolph's nose back on! There was something for everyone! We did all of these activities and actually had a lot of fun, even if the event was meant for children...

At 12 o'clock it was time to leave and none of the children were very happy about that! But, after a lot of moaning and sighing, we were all in the car ready to go home. We dropped my sister and my niece and nephew home again then headed home ourselves. Since then I have done nothing all day - a day well spent I think!

Thank you for reading!

THIS IS US FILM REVIEW!

Thursday, 21 November 2013
Just as a filler, until our next post (coming soon) I thought I could just show you my english homework, have fun!

Today, I will be reviewing the hit movie from the year, yes, as if the boys couldn’t do much more. They add another string to their belt. But this was no surprise to some, after being signed to a major label like SYCO.  So what are my thoughts on the documentary/ concert film.

The film shows the five lads: Harry Styles, the curly haired youngest who can make teens everywhere fall at his feet with a hair-flick; Louis Tomlinson, The eldest, who has gone from stripes and braces, to denim and ripped jeans; Niall Horan, the Irish one known for his love of food and adorable accent; Zayn Malik, the Half-Pakistani bad boy, known for his enticing eyes, and long-lashes and Liam Payne, known for his major hair changes across the years.

This film shows the 5 in a new light, as the tabloids exploit their private lives, it’s a nice change to see them with a glimpse of their past lives, before they gave it up for the stage.
 
The film starts with the start of their careers and friendships, the best friends are said to have 'lost out on the X Factor' which isn't entirely true, I mean, they came third! that's no way near last!

You get to see Harry working in the Local Bakery with a real smile plastered across his well-groomed-face, showing his adorable dimples that teens across the globe have fallen for.  Zayn is also filmed as he buys his Mum and Sisters a lovely new home, with tears threatening to spring from his famous eyes, so that you then, if you didn’t before, know that he isn’t a Cheating Tool  as the papers told earlier this year.
There is also a Scientist featured, which explains how girls feel when they see the handsome five. Whilst demonstrating which parts of the human brain is affected on a to-scale model of the vital organ.

You may even get to see more than one of the toned boys without shirts, or maybe even without trousers, intrigued? You should be!

The interviews with the boys and their families are lovely, especially as they are all so proud of what their sons have become.
You don’t see much of their girlfriends or fiancee as I should mention, though this is probably best as some of the fans don’t seem to enjoy their beautiful faces like some do, sending death threats anonymously through social messaging sites like Twitter.

This film is a feel-good film that will have you up in your feet as soon as the first beat drops. It is a perfect opportunity to experience them live if it wasn’t possible to see them at their past two tours, and upcoming Stadium Tour. 

As a fan, my view may seem biased, and if you aren’t a fan, go see it anyway, and you can tell me what your views are! Though chances are, if you don't really care about the band, you may not after the film! Though if you're not a fan, why are you here? exactly! Nailed it!

And this isn't the only member trouser-less!

YOUTUBE!

Wednesday, 6 November 2013
This isn't a normal post, and I know most of you won't really get excited about this post, but then again you won't get excited about another post... Moving on from that embarrassing moment!

This is just a short post to ask your opinion on something!

I want to be a Youtuber, but not really sure when I should start posting videos? I watch A LOT of Youtubers including the likes of: Tanya Burr; Zoella; Pointless Blog; Thatcher Joe; Jim Chapman... The list could go on!

Some people in my year have started Youtubing, and everyone has taken the 'mick' out of them... They were cringy to be honest though! Y'see that's what I'm worried about! Will people be horrible about it? I mean, I wouldn't post it to Facebook or anything, that would be exposing myself to all sorts of hate!

I actually found out recently that a few of my friends also want to do Youtubing, and some of the girls want to do Blogging as well, and you know when you have the competitive instinct to want to beat them? Be better than them, that feeling came flooding to me, they're lovely though, and would probably be better than me anyway... Ah well!

If I were to start posting videos NOW I wouldn't tell anyone, and I'm not sure whether I should wait at least a year until this Blog gets better, giving me more leeway and making it easier?

Please help me?

Amy
