30 Day Snap #3 | A day of giggles, little purchases & freaky friends


Howya, from far and wide.
Can you believe it's June! It took me until this morning (yesterday heehee) to realise how just one year ago I flew over, for my interview for College. I can't wait to compare this months journey to last years. I say I did more stuff last year, as I wasn't studying then.

Day 3 June 2014

My main picture is of (top right) Robyn and (bottom left) Peachy from The Randomness of Unicorns. Robyn is Kiera Knightly in my eyes and Peachy is Peaches from Ice-Age. She's so cute! :)
I've never been a person afraid to make friends in different schools and places, just be yourself 'n all.
But I was lucky to have the bunch of girls in this course, even with the silly dramatic commotions I felt happy knowing what to expect in life. Honesty, back-stabbing, trust, were some of the things I have learned so much more about this year. I'm putting my trust out there more than I used to.


I spent my day laughing in class, laughing in the library, laughing in the corridors, laughing on the streets, in the shops, supermarket. Pretty much there was a lot of giggles going on. I only had 3 sugars in my cappachino (didn't make much sense) :D

Our lunch break usually goes along the lines as, getting something to eat, looking around the shops (Tuesday, it was Waterstones, SuperDrug, New Look, Greggs Bakery, Waitrose).

I met a fella with a purple wig on the street (singing to him that song from the Madagascar movie, the one with the Zebra wearing a clowns wig), bought a pastel coloured, flowery necklace in New Look (which I've wanted for a while now), danced to Ed Sheeran in Hopscotch sweet shop (bought my 1st twinkie - DELICIOUS!), bought a new box of Pukka tea (Love) and laughed my Irish behind off to some Vine videos.

I came home to slap a superdrug mask on my face,
 with a cup of my new Pukka tea, while watching 'Mamma Mia'. Perfect feel good movie :)



The Giggles of Life - Instagram

Thanks to you from me, damn!... have The Beatles in my head now!

Anyways, thanks for reading blogging peeps,
Let me know how your day went. Anything fun? Any giggles? Any guys in purple wigs?

Thankful Thursday




Hello Beauties :)
It's yet another 'Thankful Thursday'... where I share what I was grateful for through the week.
It is actually becoming my favourite day of the week surprisingly. With having nice classes in College, finishing up at 2:30pm and looking forward to Friday :) I'm beginning to think that Thursday is now the start of the week ever since I started doing these posts.

So this week (from the pictures above) I spent my time studying for a big BIG exam in Physiology, working both Saturday and Sunday in the restaurant and attending a 'Mind, Body & Spirit Fair', which was a lot of fun. The psychic reading I got done was rubbish, I was the one being able to read her in the end..... FAKE!
But there were times that had me smiling and feeling good throughout the week.

Muh 'Thankful Thursday':
- Crumpets
- New Instagram Friend... she's so funny!
- 2 hour convo on Skype with Brother.
- Sunday lie-in with cousin watching 'X-Factor'.
- The Rain... yeah, because I'm happier with it when I'm working :)
- New facebook group... gossiping away about what not ;)
- A Clear Quartz Stone, a gift from a College friend.
- Birdy 'Wings'
- Watching 'Bones'... this will be a regular I grant you that... Sorry!
- New Gold Nail Varnish 'Barry M' from 'Superdrug' and a 'New Look' top.

I know people say this a lot, but this week did fly by... I'm happy by it really, mid-term is getting closer... YAY :) A whole week off.

So, I'm looking forward to what this week brings, hopefully unexpected, surprising things. I love surprises.

My September Favourites


Hey fellow readers, this is my 1st ever haul/ favourites post, so I hope that you do like it. I love Fashion so much. It is something that makes me get so hyper and heart racing.
I was told by a friend that I should do 'Fashion' posts, so maybe this will be the beginning :)
Can I add the dazzling sunshine as a favourite, because we didn't get much sun as I'd like this September, and when it did come out it made me so happy :)



Let us start us with the beauty collectibles that I adored this Month, all bought from 'Superdrug'. 


- Sleek Make-Up Blush, Antique.
- Rimmel London Eyebrow Pencil, in Dark, 001
& ScandalEyes Precision Micro Eyeliner (Waterproof).
- Schwarzkopf Gliss Hair Repair, Shine Tonic. 
- Batiste Dry Shampoo, XXL Volume.
- Tresemme Texture Style, Back Comb Dust (dizzying heights).


Sleek Blush, Antique
Since I am quite pale, I found that this blusher added a vintage, radiant flush to my cheeks. It can also be used as a highlighter I found. It's ultra-long lasting and it suits all skin types.


Rimmel Eyebrow Pencil 
First time for everything, and for me I have never really paid much attention to my eyebrows (and I should have) there pretty fair compared to the colour of my hair (a little rhyme for you), so I had to see whether anything could be done. I felt so strange when I first used this applicator, I looked unnoticeable in the mirror, but I've gone extremely light with applying, and at last I have gotten used to it's ways. I find that if I have my eyes equally as good with make-up then it doesn't look so strange.

Scandaleyes Liquid Eyeliner
I've tried the L'oreal liquid eyeliner, and the maybelline Eye Studio Master Precise, and this one seemed to be my favourite. I feel as though this pen does the job for me, I get the line as thin as possible with this eyeliner, which I wasn't so successful on doing with the others.


Schwarzkopf Gliss Hair Repair
This is to be applied on dry, styled hair.
Thankfully, this spray doesn't make my hair feel oily, it does what it says on the tin. Adds shine. I have sadly dull, dry hair, and this shine tonic, tricks the eye, making it appear so healthy and shiny... Ooooh.
People will say, "Ooh, your hair looks so shiny, surely you must have used something!"....
"No m'darlings, not a thing!"... wink wink, heehee :) Nah only joking... must advertise the product at least (show my appreciation).


Baptiste Dry Shampoo, XXL Volume
I found this to be very much like strong hairspray, so take caution! Use sparingly! But it does like it says, adds lots of Volume. I am always in a rush, so this is great for me, when I want to tie my hair up, and make the roots appear more bouncy :)


Tresemme Texture Style, Backcomb Dust
And lastly, my favourite beauty item. For me, instead of following the instructions that say to apply on your hands, I just sprinkle it, little by little, onto my scalp. It made my hair feel so soft as well, which was a surprise bonus for me. It also isn't as difficult as dry shampoo, where you have to hide the white dust. Me love love this product. Thumbs up I say :)


Lepard Print Umbrella & A Pretty Little Box
Umbrella cos like it rains... heehee. Very important. Aaaand...
It's a box... yeah, but not only a box... a secret opening to NARNIA!
If only it were true.
The reason why I bought this was because starting from September, me and best friend EdelBelle (you must know her by now, with me mentioning her all the time), well we're sending cards to one another till the end of July, (the duration of our separation from College). And in these cards, we ask one another a question. It could be about, "What's your opinion on anxiety?"...."What's your favourite Season?" Which I wrote in my first Issue (of September) to her. So my given cards will be added to this box, along with some pictures.

Each of these cards are in a set of 3. I adore them so much and thank heavens Edel loves them too. I am awaiting for my card to come in the post, so I'm excited to see what she says.


Slippers from 'Primark'
These are a huge favourite. They were given to me as a 'Welcome' present by my Aunt, for my stay in London. And they're from 'Primark'.
I love how it has the soft pink flowers attached to the sides, and that it has a gold, crisp lining at the bottom. Also strangely they match my new umbrella, well I'm not going to be using the umbrella in the house, or my slippers out in town, so... actually you know what, maybe I could dance around the house with the umbrella... Hmmm, that could work out to be quite fun!


'New Look' Boots and New brown patched-look leather Purse
I took these pictures the day I bought my new purse. Nice leather, good leather.
And I wanted to show you the boots, that my Mum bought for me, before coming to London. They're from 'New Look', and their price was (in sterling) £37.
I also wanted to show you from outside my College in Barnet.
I loved how the red brick and fallen leaves matched my boots and my purse.


 So there you have it guys, I hope you enjoyed my ramblings, photos, stories and product opinions.
It's only a start, but I hope that I will continue with doing posts very much like these.

Love you all so much,

Cheerio x
