Hey Guys,
Happy New year and I hope everyone has had an amazing christmas and that the next year will be the best it possibly can be! Let me know in the comments if you want a mini christmas haul to see the presents I received and what i bought with my christmas money. Hope everyone is doing well and hasn't got bored waiting!
I am incredibly sorry that i havent written a post in months, there really isnt an excuse. I want to be able to keep all of you happy but im absolutely useless. Currently trying to raise money for a volunteering trip to Ecuador in 2017 which i am just as bad at as writing regular posts for you guys! Anyway I have a lot of exciting posts lined up this year and hopefully I will be a lot better this year than I was last!
Anyway back to the new year. Its a new year, a new beginning and most of all, new resolutions to be made and almost definitely be broken or forgotten! I have a few resolutions for 2016 which i am determined to see through! I want to improve on here, Pretty much raise all the money needed for Ecuador, focus on my exams and try to live a lot healthier. Whether or not I will stick to them is a different story but I really want to surprise myself. I would love to know if you have made any resolutions for 2016 and what they are. And also if in the past you have ever made a resolution which you have stuck to. I know I haven't!

I don't know....
Hey guys,
Do you ever get the feeling where you don't belong? Like you're either at school or just with your mates and you feel like they don't really want you there for some reason. You feel slightly like an outsider even though you have known them for years and you're closer with them than ever before. Because I get that a lot and
I don't know if it's just me and I'm just being stupid or what? But sometimes because I'm so shy I struggle to really properly fit in. It has nothing to do with the fact that I may not be overly close with my friends because 100% I am. It's just that sometimes in situations I don't feel fully confident or relaxed. Do any of you get this too? Or am I just slightly socially awkward? Please let me know.
Sorry it was just a quick post today.

P.S. I'm so sorry I haven't been active in agesss, I am going to try a lot harder now and I hope you haven't all got bored and left me! Sorry again and I will post again, SOON!!

What is love?
Hey Guys!
So today I was with my best friend, I don't want to publicize her name so she's going to be called N for this post. Anyway I have known her since I was two years old and we have been best friends ever since. There are pictures of us everywhere together posing like idiots!! Because I have known her for so long I know all about the people who make her happy and most of all boys who make her happy. She has known this boy (He will be called T) since primary and they have dated a couple of times. Now they are all in high school and T is a year younger than N. They are kind of in a relationship you could say because they kiss and cuddle and act super cute like they are together, however, neither one has officially said they are together. To make it all the more complicated they both still date other people. Which I know is completely wrong. Anyway N is always asking me what I think about the whole in a relationship not in a relationship thing and I tell her the truth; I think they are and need to stop being silly and properly get together. The only problem is her parents and his parents believe he is playing her and doing it to make it look good on him having someone older to fall back on. Do you understand what I mean?
Have any of you ever had this problem before?
I really care about N and i don't want her to get hurt in case what her parents and his think is true.
Please comment on your thoughts about them

Fifth Dimension
Hey Guys,
So last night I went to a party; it wasn't anything big it was just a small gathering of about 20 of us or so. We did it as a surprise for a very very close friend of ours. She hasn't had the best time recently and has been down quite a lot recently, so just before Christmas we started to organise a surprise party for her to cheer her up a bit. We formed a group chat on Facebook adding everyone who is really close to her and wants to help cheer her up and we started to organise it without her knowing. We organised everything from the venue to the music to the food by ourselves and we all chipped in to help with the price.
When we were trying to think of what we should do for the music we suddenly thought of a band called Fifth Dimension. Hardly anybody has heard of them and that's because its a group of friends from our school (who we are all really close to.)
Fifth Dinension are a bit of a rock band who have only recently started to play music as a band. We wanted them at the party because we all know them really well, especially the person the party was for!! The band consists of Anthony, Alfie , Reeve, Fred and Noah. It was their first kind of official gig and they did really well and we had an amazing time at the party. Personally I think they are amazing and could really go far in the music industry if the right people notice them! Go check them out on YouTube and Facebook, even if you aren't a fan of rocky music because neither am I but I really like them!

Girl Online...
Hey Guys!
So I'm certain that many of you will know the world famous, absolutely gorgeous and most kindhearted beauty blogger/vlogger Zoe Sugg aka Zoella ( and if you haven't then you must have been hiding under a rock these past four years and it must have been one hell of a rock!!) And if you have I'm also pretty certain that you know that in the last few weeks Zoe has released her first ever book, courtesy of Penguin publishers, 'Girl Online'. If you don't know who she is heres a link to her youtube channel and blog.

Blog >> http://www.zoella.co.uk
Well last night at exactly 1:09am (so you could really say this morning!) I read the last page of 'Girl Online' and I can honestly say without any doubt in my mind at all that it was one of the most heart-rendering, amazing, roller coasters of a book and the minute I started reading it I couldn't put it down. I started reading this 3 days ago when i finished the book I as reading beforehand and instantly from the first few pages I knew it was going to be a real page turner and a book that I was going to love. However I didn't realise quite how much I was going to love it. It had me laughing, crying and smiling like an idiot all the way through! Haha!!
Recently though it came out that Zoe had used a 'ghost writer' to help her compose this book and do you know what I think about that? Fair play to her. Because of this she's been receiving a fair bit of hate for it and it got to the point where she had to take time off the internet and vlogmas was put on hold, is that the right way to put it? This also happened in the book where Penny, the main protagonist, had to do the same. Even though Zoe did have a ghost writer to help her with her book all of her ideas seem to be very much her own and that is evident throughout. The only thing I believe that the ghost writer helped her with was the wording. There are so many little parts of the story that are so similar to Zoe herself that just shouts that it was all her ideas used and not anyone else's. I think that all the haters that have been brining Zoe down can all go on and do one. When you try something for the very first time you are obviously going to want help with it and it isn't any different for famous people either. Just because someone is more well known than ourselves it doesn't mean they should be ridiculed for having a bit of help does it?
Anyway let's just try to forget about the negative and focus on the positive things. Zoe's book is absolutely amazing and has broken all kinds of records with its release and as a fan I feel so proud of how far she has come and all of the hurdles she has accomplished along the way. If you haven't already I would definitely recommend you take a look at Girl Online and maybe give it a cheeky purchase ;)
Heres the link if you do want to give it a cheeky little read ;) >> http://www.amazon.co.uk/Girl-Online-Zoe-Sugg-Zoella/dp/0141357274/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1418483287&sr=8-1&keywords=girl+online
Anyway until next time

P.S This post is not sponsored I just genuinely thought that I should share my views on whats happening about Zoe and the ghost writer at the moment and give Girl Online a little review so anyone out there who is considering buying it will have another perspective over it.
I am so proud of you Zoe!!

The Vamps concert in Cardiff!
Hey guys!
So I know I haven't posted on here in a while and thats mainly because I'm trying to work on quite a big post for you and couldn't think of anything to post during that. Anyway I was brainstorming last night and suddenly came up with this! I can't believe I hadn't thought about writing a blog about this earlier!
I went to see The Vamps live in concert in Cardiff, in Wales (as you may or may not know thats 6 hours away as I live in Norwich!!) On 11th October, with my sister, Mum and Dad. As you may already know if you read the 20 facts about me blog post, I am a massive fan of the band The Vamps. The band consists of four members: James Mcvey, Connor Ball, Tristan Evans and Brad Simpson. They are an indie-pop style band and in my opinion are the best.
Anyway enough about the background of these four amazing boys and back to the concert itself! I went to bed the night before buzzing about the next day and i couldn't get to sleep in the end I read for about 2 hours and then finally fell asleep complete with kindle in hand! (Great way to fall asleep if you just can't!!) I woke the next morning at 8am and couldn't understand why I had butterflies in my stomach then I realised, The Vamps were today!!! Anyway at 9am we left to go to Cardiff. We arrived at about 3:30pm and went straight to the hotel where we dropped our bags off and I began the long process of getting ready. I also forced my mum and dad to listen to The Vamps the whole time as I thought that they needed to get into the spirit of things! After I was ready, at about 5pm we went down to the restaurant/pub thing in the hotel and i got a coca cola. We needed to kill sometime as the doors opened at 6:30. Once the clock ticked over to 6:20 we left the hotel and walked down to the venue (5 mins away.) It was at that moment that I realised this really was for real. We had to walk half way round the venue before we reached the end of the queue, but luckily once we got there the queue was moving fairly quickly as that was when the people were starting to be let in.
When we got in and found our seats, me and my Dad went off to find where all the merchandise was being sold and I got into that queue which seemed just as long as the one outside! Once I finally got to the front I told the lady serving me what I wanted and she went and grabbed it. Heres what I bought:

Once I finally got to the front I told the lady serving me what I wanted and she went and grabbed it. Heres what I bought:
As well as the things above I bought a T-shirt, however it is currently in the wash and so I can't photograph it. It is just plain black but with orange 'The Vamps' logo written on the front. On the back in white writing is all of the tour dates from the 2014 Meet The Vamps tour.
Once we got back from the merchandise store we all sat down and waited for the concert to begin. At about 7pm E of E came onto the stage and performed three of their songs and got the crowd going. After that Luke Friend entered and performed his two songs. The last warm up act of the night was Nina Nesbitt. Her set was amazing nearly as good as The Vamps! Haha! Anyway at about 8:30 on came THE VAMPS!! Their set was absolutely amazing. It was magical and I couldn't have had a better night. When the encore came they performed risk it all and Can we dance (both classics!) It couldn't have ended so perfectly ! I was buzzing when I got back to the hotel and, yet again, I couldn't sleep. I was awake until nearly 4am reliving the moment. Watching all of my videos scanning through my photos and reading my programme. When I woke early next morning I couldn't help but feel a little sad and down that it was now over but I will always have that memory to stick. Here a few of my photos from the night:
It's a perfect band to end a perfect evening.
