Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas

Helloooooooooooooooooooooooooooo everyone,

I didn't finish Blogmas this year :( I managed 18 days. I thought that today I would tell you what I did for Christmas this year.

I woke up at 2am and I couldn't get back to sleep so I watched Shrek on Netflix. Then I went back to sleep at 4am. I woke up again at 6am and then I opened up my stocking. I got a fountain pen, some nerds, some jumping beans and some Christmas socks. 

Then I went and woke up my brother and we went into my mum and dads room. We woke them up and we went downstairs. Me and Bobby waited outside the living room whilst my mum and dad put on Christmas movies and put the fire on. When we were aloud in there was a huge pile of gifts! Me and Bobby sat down and began to go through the pile. We got loads! I got 4 Pop! figures (Winter Soldier, Black Widow, Scarlett Witch and Alice from Alice in Wonderland.), Tommy Girl perfume, Ted Baker phone case, pencil case, make up set and bath set, Zoella lazy days reed defuser, Avengers Monopoly, Girl online going solo, Username regenerated, the Victoria letters, Audrey Hepburn shower set, a set of Christmas socks, Lish bath bombs, Zoella note book, Frozen operation, and a penguin memory stick. Once we had opened everything my dad came in with 2 sacks. He gave one to me and one to my brother. when we opened them there were boxes containing a macBook pro for me and a iPhone 7 for Bobby! We were so happy with them! Bobby loves his and I adore mine! 

After that we went into our front room to open gifts from our family. I got a New Look voucher from my auntie, uncle and cousins, some money from my grandparents, a necklace from my grandma, some bath bombs from my auntie and uncle and some pyjamas from my auntie and uncle. 

At about 12pm we got dressed and my grandparents, auntie and uncle came round. We all gave our gifts. I got money and a selection box off my grandparents and perfume and lipstick off my auntie and uncle. I was on my Mac and we were watching Avengers: Age of Ultron. Then we had dinner which was so nice! For afters we had millionaires shortbread. Afterwards we watched Frozen and my family went home. 

We watched tv. Then went to bed. It was such a good day! 
I hope you all had a great Christmas!
see you soon

Blogmas day 18: Gift Ideas

Blogmas day 18: Gift Ideas

Hellooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo everyone,

As you are all aware Christmas is just days away so I thought that it would be a good idea to tell you about what I've got my friends for Christmas :)

Lara-

Lara loves Suicide Squad so I got her a signed picture form the cast. Its not official its only printed but there was only 200 made which makes it quite cool. She loves it any way.

Jemima-

Jem is obsessed with Harry Potter so I got her a Slytherin pillow. Slytherin is her favorite house and she loves pillows so it was perfect! I got the pillow form the Harry Potter range at Primark. Harry Potter Range

Sehar-

I made Sehar a box which opens up and it has her favorite bands and lyrics to there songs. It also has pictures of us four. Its hard to explain so I'll leave the link to the video that I found which explains it all. The video.

I got the rest of my friends boxes of cute panda chocolate biscuits. 
I hope you enjoyed this post <3

We woke up at 8am and we got ready. We finished packing and went down to the reception. It began to snow so we got a cab a bit earlier than we wanted to. We drove to the airport and tried to check in but we couldn't so we asked the person at the check in and she said that the people we booked the holiday through had booked five flights home and then cancelled them all. So we to wait there for ages whalst the person at the check in tried to get us on the next flight home. She managed to get us on the next flight which was at 11pm that night! So we went to a diner and I had meatballs and pasta. It was so nice. We stayed there for ages. Then we were able to finally able to check in. We got through check in and security. Then we went to duty free and looked around. All together we were in the airport for 15 hours! When we were finally able to get on the plane we were sat at the front of the isle. I watched Avengers age of ultron. Then I went to sleep. When I woke up we had about 1 hour left so I just listened to my music. Went we landed we got our stuff and went home. Holly was very excited to see us.

When we got back we went shopping. We went to Macy's which was so cool. It was all christmasy and beautiful. My mum bought a shopping bag and a Michael Kors purse. Then we went into Ted Baker and my dad bought me a phone case and a pencil case for Christmas. They both have the same design and the same colours . Light pink and white and green. After that we went to Bryant park and looked around. Its probably one of my favorite parts of NYC. Then we went up the Empire State building. It was so cool. The view was beautiful.

Blogmas day 12: NYC day 3

Hellooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo everyone,

I hope you are all feeling great! Today's post is still on New York. I am going to try to write all the posts that I need to upload today so I can catch up on Blogmas.

Day 3-
I woke up at 2:30 (in England it would have been 7:30) my mum and brother were already wake. I went on my phone and my mum and brother went to Starbucks to get two coffees and two hot chocolates. But Starbucks was closed so they went to a small cafe and got the drinks and came back. When they arrived back my dad was awake too. We watched TV and drank our drinks. Then we got ready and went out. We went to ground zero. It was so sad. Ian going to upload a post on pictures I have took after blogmas. Afterwards we walked around for a while and we got a bit lost so we decided to take the subway. Luckily we got off at the right stop and we got off at Bryant park. It was so cute. They had small stalls and a large ice rink. we looked around and got hot chocolates. It was beginning to get late so we went to a pub and got our tea. Then we went back to our hotel and we watched the Goonies. 

I hope you liked today's post.

Blogmas 11: NYC day 2

Blogmas 11: NYC day 2

Helloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo everyone,

This is the second post today, like I said before, I am going to try and post as many posts as I can today <3

Day 2-
I woke up at 3:30am due to the time difference. About 5 minutes later my mum woke up and we both went on our phones. 20 minutes later we were all awake so we got ready and then we went to Apple bees which was only across the road. I ordered a hot chocolate and chocolate pancakes. They were the nicest pancakes I have ever had! We were all really wrapped up as it was so cold! We were walking around for a while when a man came up to us telling us about bus tickets. Last year when my parents went to New York they got the same tickets and they said they were really good, so they bought them. The tickets were so long it took about 10 minutes for them to stop printing, it was huge.We jumped on the bus and drove down to Central Park. We walked around for ages and it was so cold. So we went into a coffee shop. I got a hot chocolate and we walked around the park for a bit longer. Then we found the zoo in Central Park so we went inside there. There were so many animals, I loved the penguins, there was loads! I also loved the snow leopards they were beautiful!

When we left the park we walked up to the Rockefeller center. We went all the way to the top. the view was amazing. You could see all of central park and the Empire State. You could also see the new World Trade Center and the Statue Of Liberty. It was amazing! When we got out of the Rockefeller my brother pointed out that I had cut my ankle because it was rubbing on my shoe. It wasn't hurting but I put a plaster on it any way to stop it from beading. After that we had a look in the Lego Store. it was huge!

We were trying to find a pub so we could have tea and we came across a Irish bar. I had a burger and chips and some Coke. Then we went to the hotel and we watched Star Wars.

I hope you enjoyed this post <3

Blogmas day 10: NYC day 1

Blogmas day 10: NYC day 1

Helloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo everyone, 

I know that its the 16th of December and I am writing Blogmas day 10, that's because I have been in NYC all week and I haven't had chance to write it so I am writing it today. I am also going to try and upload as many other days as I can today.

Day 1-

Me, my mum, my dad and my brother all woke up on Saturday at 8am. We all got ready and my granddad picked up all up at 9am. We got to the airport at 9:30am then we checked in and went through security. After that we went into duty free and had a Frankie'sand Bennie's breakfast. I had pancakes. and they were so nice! We looked around the airport for a bit longer then we got on our plane. When we got on the runway, the crew found out that the toilets were broken so we had to turn around and go back. We waited there for about 30 minutes and then we were finally able to set off.  

On the plane I sat next to the window. We were given pillows and blankets and ear phones. As it was a long haul flight we had TV's so I watched Captain America Civil War and Ice Age Collision Course. I have seen Civil war before but I have never seen Collision Course. The are both great films. After I watched the films I listened to my music on Spotify. Then we were able to choose our food. I chose a chicken breast, it was nice. I also had a coke. After about 2 hours we were given a beef sandwich which was very nice. I got another Coke and we were given little tubs of ice cream. We were able to get off the plane 30 minutes later. We went through check in and security then we collected our luggage and got into a yellow cab.  

We drove through New York and arrived at our hotel, the drive took about 1 and a half hours. Our hotel was in Times Square, the view was incredible! We could see the Empire State building and most of Times Square. We were all quite hungry so we went into Times Square and we got a MacDonalds, I had chicken strips. Afterwards we saw a huge Disney store so we went into it and had a look around. It was amazing! Then we went back to our hotel and went to bed.

I hope you enjoyed day 1 <3

Blogmas day 5: Christmas Advice

Blogmas day 5: Christmas Advice

Helloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo everyone,

Blogmas is well underway now, were 5 days into it which means 5 days until I go to NYC and I'll do a post each day about what I have done that day. (Well I'll try!) Also its only 19 days until Christmas! I can't wait, I'm so excited :)

As Christmas is coming closer I thought that I could give you some advice on one of the best days of the year!

1. Always ask for surprises this way you could get things that you didn't even know you could get and you might even like it!

2. Prepare gifts about a month in advance. That way you can save up money and buy the gifts. I am nearly done with my gifts I just need to get 2 more. Also if your doing a D.I.Y make it about a month before, that way if things go wrong you have plenty of time to fix it and start again. 

3. Write in a notebook about the gifts that you get people. I have done this and it's so much easier that having to think about what you need. You can also write how much the gifts were and you can check off everything you have bought already!

4. When opening your gifts open them and then take them out of the packaging. That way the moments last longer and opening everything doesn't last 5 seconds.

5. keep all of your opened gifts to one side of the room. Then nothing gets broken.  

6. Write down who got you a gift and what that gift was because then you can give them thank you cards.

7. When having Christmas dinner instead of already having everything on a plate, put everything in the middle of the table because then you can get what you want.

8. Spend as much time with your family as you can, Christmas is a family time after all. 

9. Play a Christmas movie or Christmas songs whilst opening gifts, it makes it more festive. 

10. On Christmas eve try to have an early night, as Christmas day is very busy and you are doing to need all the energy you can.

I hope this will help you on Christmas day!

See you soon

Changing and Misjudging people

Changing and Misjudging people

Helloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo everyone, 

Today's post is going to be a bit different to the others I have posted. This is about lots of different things that happen. Also this post is not aimed at anyone in particular!

I'm sure you know at least one person who has changed over the past few years. I have, I know I have. I have become more outgoing and I'm not afraid to say what I think. 

People I know have changed and I have ether grown to like that person or dislike them. Sometimes I misjudge people. I think we all do, and if I have i'm very sorry. I tend to think ahead and judge a book by its cover. If you look smart I'll automatically think oh there smart. It's probably one of my worst qualities. I hate thinking like that but I can't help it. I'm trying to work on it, don't worry. 

I have misjudged people who I am now great friends with. If I have misjudged you I am so so so sorry. If you didn't like this weeks post I'm sorry I just needed to say this.

I'm going to change the ending this week by saying don't judge a book by its cover. If I have then I am truly sorry and I hope that we can start a fresh. 

Hi I'm Mia, how are you?

Anouncment and update

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween!

Hellooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo everyone,

Or should I say booooooooooooooooooooooooooo because yesterday was Halloween! I love Halloween so so so much, I think its amazing! What did you guys do for Halloween?

I didn't dress up because straight from school I went to my friend Sehars house with Lara, Alice and Scarlet. We had pizza, sweets, chocolate and cake. We also watched part of Coroline. Then we played never have I ever which was really funny. Afterwards we went out and walked around the streets. We saw loads of kids dressed up going trick or treating. Then we went back and played truth or dare and we did prank calls. Bobby, my brother, went trick or treating and got loads of treats. They passed a house which was decorated incredibly! It had lots of light and massive graveyard signs it looked amazing!

This year my pumpkin was the S.H.E.I.L.D symbol. (mostly because I love the show) and Bobby's was Jack Skellington.
