The Ups And Downs Of Lockdown

 Hi,

Lockdown has been something which we've all had to experience, whether we liked it or not. Everyones lockdowns have been very similar, staying in, working from home, barely seeing your family and friends and missing them like mad. However everyones had their differences. Mine personally began with me feeling pretty positive, I could do college work from home, I could play video games all day long and I didn't even have to get dressed up in my usual college get up! (usually a skirt, jumper and boots or a dress so my lockdown clothes were much more chilled out!)

However after a few weeks of the same old thing it gets pretty boring, and lonely. I missed my family, I missed my friends, and I missed my boyfriend, Joshua. I missed how things us to be, simple, a fun routine where I could see the people who I loved whenever I wanted. I missed the usual anyhow things use to be. I buried my head in college essays and workbooks, I played video games until late at night, I hid away. 

Once a week or so, me and Joshua would go on a walk. I would go into the shop opposite me and get lunch for the two of us, he would walk up to meet me. We would then walk to the park near where we live and then walk down the little brook which flows behind it. We managed to find a little indent in the river where we would sit and eat our lunch. We would sit and talk for a while and then walk on until we reached the part where we had to part ways. They were always the days I would look forward to, the days where there was even the tiniest bit of normality. 

I guess relationships in lockdown aren't the easiest. Me and Joshua went days without seeing each other. We would play video games together but its not the same as sitting down together and watching a film or playing a game together while trying to annoy the other so you win. FaceTime definitely changed lockdown, we would FaceTime everyday, when we woke up, before we slept, throughout the day, just to try and make it seem like we were together. Things did get tense at times, were not a long distance kind of couple! We love spending time together and being in each others presence, we can't be apart. Well, I know I can't be away from him. 

Luckily lockdown was eased during the time of our two year anniversary, we went for a meal and then he came back to mine and we watched tv. Nothing too exciting but it was romantic and sweet. I will probably do a full post on our relationship and things like that! 

When lockdown ended (kind of) and I went back to college, I got to see my friends again, my family, and I got to live a more normal life again. We all did. Yes the fear of the Coronavirus was still there, but everyone was distracted by the normality. 

One of the biggest downfall of living in lockdown was the anxiety. Not knowing when you'll next see our loved ones. Not knowing if you'll see some of them again. Since Lockdown I can safely say that my anxiety has sky rocketed. I get worried over the slightest of things, if plans get canceled or pushed back, if I get a message which I can't check at that moment in time, if I get something wrong etc. I guess I'm writing this little part to help explain it more to myself so I can understand myself a little bit more. 

I suppose everyone has had different experiences in lockdown. I hope you are doing well. If not I hope I can help in any way possible. 

See you soon,

I Guess I'm Starting This Blog Back Up Again...

 Hi,

Last time I wrote properly on this blog I was fifteen. I had just going into year eleven in high school and I was extremely single. Since my last post everything has changed... but I'll explain more on that later on. Since my last post I have written twice on here to announce my latest blogs. I kept making new blogs before I realised that I should be grateful for what I have here, on this blog, with all you lovely people! I'm going to change it up a bit with the fonts, colours etc to make it more Twenty Twenty Mia! 

As I said before, since my last post and proper update, everything in my life has changed. I'm now seventeen, I've left school and I'm now in college studying my dream subject and I'm pretty happy with where I am now. Over the past few years I've had my ups and downs, mainly ups though. I guess I should start from where I left off...

I last wrote on here on the twentieth August Two Thousand and Eighteen. I was fifteen years old, had many friends and I was oblivious to everything going on around me. I began year eleven in September and by October I was dating the love of my life. I'm not on hundred percent sure how he'd feel about me writing this post so for now lets call him Joe. Everything was perfect, I had everything I could have ever wanted. Then Two Thousand and Nineteen hit. This is the year that broke me. January to March was fine, I coped. March, I lost all of my friends... well... more like "friends", stuff happened which I won't go into which left me alone. Stuff that made me lose all hope. Apart from my family, I only had Joe. I clung to him, rarely leaving his side, he'd walk me to class, walk with me too and from school, I ate with him and his friends. He helped me when no one else was willing. And for that I am forever thankful for him. 

In May I began my GCSE's, they went fine, I passed everything which was great! Then on the Eleventh August, my dog Holly passed away unexpectedly. That was the hardest thing I have ever had to deal with. I still struggle with this today. 

I managed to get into my dream college where I now study TV and Film (If anyone from Disney reads that, hit me up!) I have amazing friends who feel more like siblings and I still have the best boyfriend I could ask for! 

I have a few ideas for blog posts to do on this, I also have a Twitch channel which I'm planning on playing games on too! I'll add a link at the bottom so you can subscribe and join me in playing games! I'll be doing more posts and things, mainly about growing up, relationships, film and TV etc, if you have anything you want me to write about just comment below or tweet me @miajhughes.

Thank you for sticking by this blog.

See you soon

It’s been a while

It’s been a while

Hellooooooooooooooooooooooooooo everyone,

It's been nine months since I last posted on here. I've been focusing on my school work and in all honesty, I just wasn't in the mood for writing. 

In a few weeks I'm going to be going into year 11 where I will be doing my GCSE's in maths, English, science, history, photography and possibly business. I  have been focusing really hard this past year to get the grades which I need to get into Media City Collage or UTC where I will be studying tv and film as I want to become a film director or a film producer. Both of these careers are quite hard to get into because to produce or direct a large film for a large company you need to have experience. University wise I originally wanted to go to the New York Film Academy which is obviously in New York which is 3,329 miles away from where I live in Manchester. After thinking for a while I have decided that I want to go to Salford University which is right by Media city which has studios for ITV, BBC and Coronation Street, I have decided that I want to go here because it focuses on film and TV and its not as far away as the New York film Academy. 

This year I have been to see a few different films, Black Panther, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, The Incredibles 2 and Avengers:Infinity War. I have only ever pre-booked one film before its release and that film was Avengers:Infinity War. I saw it on the 26th of April at 5pm, and all I can say is wow. Everything about that film was incredible. Every time the film switched to different characters, settings or time there would be a shock, a twist, a death in some cases. This is the movie which made me know one hundred percent that this was the industry that I wanted to go into when I am old enough. Last night at twelve pm Infinity War became available on digital download and I watched it again and I was still blown away, even for a second time. Every film I have seen this year has blown me away, compared to the films before them they have become even more sophisticated, even stronger and even better, showing how much film quality and content has improved over the many years. 

Seeing as how I haven't written in a while I want to tell you some things which I have learnt over the past 9 months, I don't know but it might help some of you, I know that writing it could help me come to terms with some of the events which have happened over the past 9 months.

1) All good things must come to an end. I know its often said and I know for a fact that I never listened to anyone who told me that because I never wanted to believe it. But now I know how true that saying is.
2) Letting go of the past will make you happier. I guess you just have to come to terms with the past and move on, no matter how hard it seems.
3) You will find happiness, whether its in friends, family, pets or yourself. You will find it.

Nothing much has changed over these nine months apart from my chosen career. I don't know when the next time I will post will be. I don't know if I will continue my blog. I might. I might not. But I guess no one knows what the future holds or what it contains for anyone... not even ourselves and were the only people who can control our futures. 

See you soon

My failed blogmas

My failed blogmas

Helloooooooooooooooooooooooooooo everyone,

So blogmas hasn't gone that well... I managed an amazing one day! I didn't realise when I said that I would do dogmas that I had tests at school coming up so I had to revise for them. I did okay in my maths but my science tests were terrible! I can't do science to save my life! I revised every night for the tests but still got terrible marks! 

Sorry blogmas has been such a failure this year! I'm going to try my hardest next year though!

See you soon,

Options and tv shows

Giant catch up

Helloooooooooooooooooooooooo everyone,

I'm so sorry for not writing for ages but I've just not been in the mood and I've just started year 10 so I have loads for homework.

If your wondering where week 2 of my holiday is, I began writing it but like I said I was just not in the mood for it. Also its been 79 days since I got back so there isn't really any point. If you would like a post about it please don't hesitate to comment or tweet me asking for it :)

If you've read my post about the options that I've chosen then you will know that I've chosen photography which is a very demanding subject. Most weeks I have to complete a A3 piece of card on pictures or settings of cameras or things like that, and this takes ages! This week off I have 3 pages to do and so far I've done 1... so I don have an awful lot of free time. I also have Creative Imedia, English, maths and science homework so you get my point about not having a lot of free time. 

At the moment I'm looking for a work experience placement for 2018, I really want to work in tv, media or radio so living in Manchester, near Media City, is great! I'm hoping to get in somewhere which produces tv shows or in a radio station. 

Recently I have really began to like watching tv shows. In the past I haven't liked watching them and after a while I would get board of them, I watched How I Met Your Mother and I now absolutely love the show! I have finished it now and I am so upset that its leaving Netflix soon but Im also glad that I watched it just in time. I'm now watching Once Upon A time an I'm obsessed! So far I'm only on season 3 episode 7 but I highly recommend it.

I'm really looking forward to Christmas, I know its a few months away but I can't contain my excitement! 

I'm going to try and write a blog post or two each half term so I can focus on my school work, I hope you understand :)

I hope you enjoyed this post!
See you soon

America!- week 1

America!- Week 1

Helloooooooooooooooooooooooo everyone,

I hope you have had a great few weeks I have! At the moment I'm off school for the summer holidays and its been great, its been super relaxing. After these holidays I go into year 10 and I begin my GCSEs! I'm actually really looking forward to this year as I get to do subjects which I enjoy and that I want to do. 

The first two weeks of the holidays I was in America on holiday with my mum, dad and brother. I have decided to do two posts on my holiday as it was two (more like 3 but you'll find out about that next post!) holidays in one so I thought I'd separate them.

I'm just going to pre warn you that this post is going to be VERY long!

Week 1, Day 1

We woke up at 4am to get ready. I wore some leggings, my Adidas trainers, a grey top which said Florida, Miami on it from Mango and a grey hoodie. I took my hand luggage downstairs which I had packed the day before which contained: my phone, charger, earphones, my iPad, my neck pillow, Harry Potter and the Philosophers stone book, and some sweets. At 4:45 the taxi came and picked us up and took us to the airport.

We were a bit early so we had to wait until the check in was ready, once it was open we checked in and headed to security. Usually I buzz when I go through security but I didn't this time which was great! After the we went to duty free. The first thing we did was go to have breakfast as we hadn't eaten. I had eggs benedict along with my mum and dad and bobby (my brother) had a bacon sandwich. Once we had cleared our plates we went to the gate and got on the plane, we hardly spent any time in duty free which was great!

We got onto the plane and I sat inbetween the window and my mum. I read my book for a while which I absolutely love! Then I slept for a few hours as I hadn't slept that night. When I woke up the flight attendants were handing out food. I had a turkey sandwich, it wasn't the best but I was hunger so I ate it. A few more hours passed and I read more of my book. Then after seven and a half hours we arrived at Newark Airport in New York.

We had a three hour wait before our connecting flight to Orlando international airport. We walked around for a bit and bought some food for the plane, then we went for a few drinks, obviously I'm way under age to have alcohol in both America and England so I had some lemonade. Then before long we were back on a plane heading to our holiday destination one! 

Once we got off the plane at Orlando International we had to wait around for an hour to get the cases. Once we had them all we went to the hotel. We stayed at Cabana bay resort in Universal. The hotel was amazing! Its all 50s and 60s themed, if you do want to goon holiday to Florida and want to go to the theme parks, I highly recommend staying here as you get into the Universal parks one hour before everyone else which is so helpful! The room we got was at the very end of the hotel! Once we were settled we ordered pizza to the room. Then we ate that and went to sleep.

Week 1, Day 2

We woke up at 4am due to jet lag (yay!). We all got ready and left the hotel at 7am to go to the parks. When we got to Universal we decided to go to Islands Of Adventure first as we wanted to go on some of the Harry Potter rides that are in that park. The first ride that we went on was Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey. This ride is a family favourite as we all love Harry Potter and its just an all round amazing ride! The ride is a motion simulator which takes you on a magical journey through Hogwarts. Not only is the ride amazing but so is queuing up! You queue up inside Hogwarts! You walk through class rooms and corridors, meet the sorting hat and the golden trio, and see all the talking pictures. Its incredible how they have done it! 

After the Harry Potter ride we went onto the ride next door which is also Harry Potter themed. This ride was dulling dragons, this ride is where two rollercoasters race each other. This ride was great! My mum doesn't like rollercoasters that much but she decided to go on this one and she loved it! 

After a magical morning in the wizarding world we decided to go over to the incredible hulk. I love this ride as its full of excitement and its so fast too! Whilst we were in the Marvel area we decided to go onto the Spider-man ride which was great! Of corse it doesn't have the best graphics due to the fact that its been there for years but its still an amazing ride! Afterwards we sat down and had a hotdog then we got on to the Hogwarts Express.

The train takes you from Islands of Adventure to Universal and vice verser. This is like a ride on its own, its amazing! When we got off the train we were in diagon alle so we got a butter beer. I love butter beer its just so nice, also its really cold which is great as it was hitting 40 degrees celsius!

We left Diagon Ally and we watched some people who were drumming on a construction sight, after that we went and watched the Blues Brothers as my dad loves them! Then we decided to go back to the hotel and go to pool for a bit. Then we went for tea and I had a cheese and tomato toasty. Then we went to the room and got changed.

We decided to go to Disney Springs and we went to the Blues restaurant. I had mac and cheese which was so nice, once we were done we went to the Disney store and I bought a blue mug with seagulls around it saying mine, the mug is from Finding Nemo, my personal favourite Disney Pixar film (this explains my love of fish and the ocean!). We then went to Basin a bath shop and we bought loads of bath bombs! Then we got an Uber back to the hotel and went to bed.

Week 1, Day 3

I woke up at 6:20am By now I'm getting use to the five hour time difference! I had a shower and got ready then we went to Universal. The first ride we went on was the 3D Harry Potter Gringots ride which was great! We then walked over to the Mummy. I don't really like indoor rollercoasters but I loved this one! After The Mummy we went over to the Jimmy Fallon ride, Race Through New York. This ride is one of Universals newest and its amazing! The graphics are out of this world (You'll understand this reference once you've been on this ride!)! Then me and my dad went on the Rip Ride Rocket, my personal favourite :) I've forgotten what music I listened to but I do know that we sat on the third row.

Afterwards we went to the other side of the park and went onto ET. I don't like ET, he freaks me out! Every time we go to Florida we have to go on this ride because my mum, dad and brother all love ET. Then we went over to the Simpsons, one of my favourite tv shows, and went on the ride there. We then had a burger and went bak to the hotel.

When we got to the hotel a huge thunderstorm began so we had to stay inside so I went into the shop in the hotel and got a Captain America plush which is super cute! Once the storm had passed we went into the pool for a bit. Then we got changed and went to Disney Springs. We went into Raglands Irish bar and I had a chicken pie which was so hot! 

We then decided to order an Uber to go back to the hotel. Once he was at DS he phoned my mum to tell her and it turns out that we were in the wrong pace so we had to walk round to meet him, we then got into the text and left. Everything was going great until he asked if we were going to HardRock Hotel and we said that we weren't. It turns out that we were in the wrong taxi. He was nice enough to take us to our hotel but the rest of the trip was in silence. We went straight to sleep once we got into the hotel room. 

Week 1, day 4

I woke up at 7:15, finally I have a normalish waking up time! We got up and went for some breakfast. I had pancakes and bacon which was so nice! It was chucking it down so we decided to go to a mall for a day, we walked around for a bit, going in and out of multiple shops I ended up buying a off the shoulder top from Hollister and 2 Funko Pops, Roo from Whinnie the Pooh and a beagle (because thats what bread my dog is). We then went for a Subway. 

We went back to the hotel and had some pizzas and went to the shop. We then went to the pool, then back to the room to get changed. I then had a hot dog and we went to Islands of Adventure and we went on the Hulk again and me and dad went onto Dr Dooms drop. Then we went to the hotel and went to bed. This day was more of a chill out day :)

Week 1, day 5

I woke up (I didn't record the time) and got ready and went straight to Islands Of Adventure. We went onto Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey for a second time (did I mention its a family favourite?!). Then my dad had to do something so me and Bobby went onto dulling dragons again. Then we went into a restaurant in hogsmade, I had pancakes which were so nice! After that we went to Jurassic park and went on the water ride there. We then went onto Kong which was so good! We then did Dudley do rights ripsaw falls which was amazing and totally cooled us down! My mum and brother went back to the hotel as they were both soaked so me and my dad went around the park some more. 

We went on to the Hogwarts express and had a look around diagon ally. Then we went to watch the blues brothers again, we then queued up for Rip Ride Rocket but as soon as we got to the front it began to thunder and the ride was closed down... typical! So we decided to leave but on the way out we bought some ice cream called dippin dots. we expected it to be ice cream with sprinkles but its tiny balls of ice cream! It was so weird :)

When we got back to the hotel we went to the pool. I must have forgot to finish writing up what happened that day so I don't have any more than that for day 5, sorry :)

Week 1, day 6

I woke up and got ready. We then went over to Volcano Bay, Universals newest park and first water park! We got some seats and the me and my dad went onto the biggest free fall waterslide in the world! It was amazing!! I will admit that I was scared because its so high up and I was worried that I would hit my head or something like that would happen, luckily it didn't! Quick tip for if you ever go on this, when you get into the tube close your eyes and mouth otherwise you will get water in your eyes and mouth and its not nice! 

We then went back to the hotel as the park was getting really busy. We went to the pool, then we had a rest in the room, then we went back to the pool. I walked around the hotel with my mum for a bit and I had a salad and went back to the room and went back down to the pool and read my book. I then went to sleep listening to my music. I wanted to go back up to the room but I was a bit hungry so I bought some lucky charms and milk. When I got back to the room I realised that we had no spoons so I made one out of a tag :) I then got changed and my family came up to the room and they got changed and we went to Disney Springs. We went into MAC and my mum bought some make up. I then bought a Minnie Mouse pen and we went into a pub and then we got a taxi (the right one this time!) and went back to the hotel.

Week 1, Day 7

Today was our last day in the parks so we got up and got ready. We went to universal studios and went straight over to Gringots bank to go onto the ride. We then went onto the Transformers ride which I love! Its strangely realistic. Then me and my dad went onto the rip ride rocket for the final time. After we went onto Shrek which is great. Then we went to Starbucks and I had a strawberry and cream cooler and a cheese and chorizo sandwich.

We then went to watch Animals Live. Animals are so smart! My favourite was the beagle puppy I just wanted to take it home! We then went over to Springfield and had a flaming moe. We then had a donut to share as there huge! 

We then got the Hogwarts express over to Islands of Adventure and we went to Hogsmade. I bought a notebook and bobby bought snape's wand.

We then went back to the hotel and me and my dad went to the shop and I bought my friends some badges. We then bought a ham and pineapple pizza, a pepperoni pizza and some garlic bread.

When we went back up to the hotel room we packed all our cases  and watched some tv. We then went to sleep.

I hope you enjoyed week 1! Keep an eye out for week 2 :) I'm sorry for such a long post. 

See you soon

Cool DIY's for anyone

Cool DIY's for anyone

Hellooooooooooooooooooo everyone,

In my bedroom I have a few DIY's which I love and I thought that maybe you guys might like reading about them and making them! 

Picture collage 

This DIY is very time consuming so beware! I have really enjoyed making this as it's super relaxing and you get to read magazines along the way :) For this DIY I bought loads of magazines and I took my mums old ones and cut out loads of pictures that I liked and stuck them to the side of my storage cupboard to make it look cool. It looks really nice and tells people so much about me even with just one look at it, the pictures on here vary from people I look up to to movie characters to places I want to visit to quotes. It's also really nice just to look at and get insparaiton from. It's taken me almost a year to do and I've not even finished (did I mention it's time consuming?) I don't like putting pictures on it of me and my friends as I want it to be competely random and unexpected but with a picture that you took it is expected. I do though have a picture of me and my brother which I do need to take down.

A jar of quotes

This DIY is so cute and looks really nice too. All you need is a jar (I used a coffee jar) and some paper. Write or print out 365 quotes (I know it's a lot but it's for a good reason!) and role them all up and place them in the jar! Each day when you wake up you can take out a quote and hopefully it will make you feel positive for the rest of the day!

Drink me jars

This is a really cute DIY, and it's Disney related so what's not to love?! I got the jars from Ikea for £4 and printed out 2 drink me tags from Alice in Wonderland. I then added water, food colouring and  glitter. I do not recommend adding food colouring though as I have bacteria growing on top of mine so I really need to just put water and glitter inside it. It looks so magical and pretty and it's so unusual. It fits right in with my Disney collection :)

A glass of diamonds
Obviously these diamonds are not real, they are just plastic but they look really cool and realistic! I bought them from a shop (I've forgotten which one!) and I bought the cool science Harry Potter kind of glass potion thing from IKEA. It's simple and effective!   

I hope you all enjoyed todays post and like the DIYs! Tweet me your DIY's on Twitter!
See you soon

My everyday make up

My everyday make up

Hellooooooooooooooooooooo everyone,

Sorry I haven't written as much this year, swell as all my exams I've also been having a huge writers block :( But don't worry, I've got loads of posts lined up for you guys!

Over the past few days I have been following small bloggers on Twitter and getting to know some of them, I think that its important to know other bloggers as they are all so nice and give amazing advice! Hi if you are a fellow blogger :) If you want to check out any of their blogs, go onto my Twitter and check out who I follow, they should be at the top of people that I follow! 

I thought that I would do something a bit different to my usual posts, I really wanted to do a post that involved make up, so I thought that I'd tell you guys what make up I usually use!

Lips

On my lips I use Norwegian formulas lip moisturiser so I don't get dry lips and over the top I use Clinique pop in the colour nude also from Clinique I use the  lip gloss in the shade cake pop. From Ted Baker I use their lip gloss, Vanilla and their lipstick which doesn't have a name but the code to find it is KMI TW11.

Eyes

For my eyes I use lots of different eye shadows and mascaras. I would use eye liner but I'm terrible at doing it and most of the time I end up poking myself in the eye! I'm going to do my eye shadows first as theres a lot! The pallet that I use quite a lot of the time is Fifi Lapin. I use this quite a lot as this was my first pallet and I have just grown to love all the colours so much. The other pallet that I use quite a lot is the Barry M Shadow and Blush Natural Glow Pallet. I love the natural looks as you can probably tell :) Some of the smaller pallets that I use are the Clinique pallets that come in the bonus time bags so they come with lots more make up, the latest one that I have is the pallet which has AX chocolate covered cherry and 06 daybreak and another pallet which came in another bonus time bag is the 10 going steady which includes 3 shades. The most expensive make up that I own is the Ted Baker range which I got for Christmas, the eye shadow from that range is the eye shadow trio. The cheapest eye shadow that I use is the PS range from Primark, to be fair the make up from there is actually really good, the pallet that I have from PS is the shimmer pallet.

For my mascaras I use 3 different ones. I use one form Ted Baker which is really nice. Another one I use is from Benefit and is called BAD gal lash, its really thick and makes your eyes look really nice and big. Lastly I use one from Clinique  called high impact and I got this one in the bonus time bag. 

At Christmas time if I want a bit more shimmer on my eyes I use the Tanya Burr eye shimmer pots in the shades snow day and Champaign sparkle.

 

Eyebrows

I don't usually do my eyebrows but when I do I use one of 2 products. The main one that I use is the Collection eyebrow kit in blonde. If I want a left subtle look then I use the Ted Baker eyebrow pencil.

Skin care

Each night I cleanse and tone my face with the Nivea 2 in 1 cleanser and toner and since using this I have hardly got any spots! To moisturise my face I use Aveeno cream which is great!

Sprays

for spays I use Vaseline deodorant, Ted Baker body spray and Tommy Girl perfume :)

I hope you enjoyed todays post :) 

See you soon,

1 love Manchester concert and much more

1 love Manchester concert and much more 

Hellooooooooooooooooooooooo everyone,

I haven't posted in ages and I am so sorry! I thought that I'd update you on everything thats happened over the past few weeks ♡

On the 4th June I went to the 1 Love Manchester concert with my mum and it was amazing! All the performers were incredible and raised so much for such an important cause♡

I have been revising for the past few weeks for my maths GCSE which I had yesterday. I didn't know it was a GCSE until only a few days ago, they decided to move the statistics GCSE 2 years forward! I think I did okay, and we find out how we did in August :)

The other day when I opened my curtains I saw a heron eating my fish from my pond, it flew away but sadly ate 8 of my fish. So last Saturday we went to a fish shop and bought 13 new pets, five golden fish, five yellow fish, two bigger fish and a sturgeon, who we named Dave as he would dance. Anyway so we had all these fish and they were in the pond and they were all happy until two days later we went out and we couldn't see Dave! Then the next day my mum found him, dead. He had got stuck in the vines and died! I am so sad as he was the coolest fish I've ever. seen. R.I.P. Dave <3

I finish year 9 in 3 and a half weeks! I can't wait to finish and begin my GCSEs and do subjects that I really want to do.

I am trying to sort out the comment section as I've only just noticed that its NEVER worked and you need a google account to make it work! 

Thats it really, I hope you enjoyed reading!
See you soon

We stand together

We stand together

Hello everyone,

Today is going to be a very different post, but I think that its important that I write about the recent incident in Manchester. 

As you all probably know, yesterday there was a bombing in Manchester after the Ariana Grande concert. I'm not going to go into too much information, but I am going to tell you guys my thoughts and how I feel about this situation. 

I am devastated about what happened, as you might know I live in Manchester, only about ten minutes from the city centre. I found out about the bomb at 7:18, when my mum woke me up to tell me about it. I was shocked, scared and worried, it so hard to believe that a bomb has gone off just down the road from you. I immediately text my friends to check that they were okay, luckily they were fine. 

I think that its sickening that someone would target young children and people. I have been on Twitter today retweeting as many posts as I can about people who are missing. 

22 years ago there was a bomb in Manchester. But Manchester got up and carried on. Just like we have done today. We have united, stood together and we will fight, hand in hand. The people in Manchester are strong and proud of who they are and will not be pushed down by terrorists. We will stand together and win.

My thoughts are with the victims, missing people and their families. Stay safe.

Please check my twitter and if you do see any of the people who are missing, please send them home, safe.

See you soon,

Mia xx

My future according to Buzzfeed quizzes

My future according to Buzzfeed quizzes

Helloooooooooooooooooooo everyone,

Today I wanted to do a different type of post to what I usually do. I have been wanting to do this for a while so I thought why not do it! I'm going to leave links to all the quizzes below so you guys can have a go! If you want you can comment your results of tweet them to me, all the infomations at the bottom <3

My exact age I'll get married.

I got 21! Thats only 7 years away! Ive always wanted to get married when I'm about 25 or 26. 

Design your dream home and we'll tell you the truth about your future.

I got I'm going to own a holiday home in the Bahamas! I have never been to the Bahamas but I would love to visit it one day. It just looks so peaceful and calm and beautiful, it looks like something out of a fairy tale.

This food quiz will predict your 2017 future

I got I'll finally take that trip you've always wanted, and travel somewhere awesome! As you might know I'm going on holiday with my family to Orlando and then I'm flying over to Clearwater. I love Orlando so much and I can't wait to go to Clearwater. So in a way its sort of correct!

What career should you actually have

I got Vice President! I'm British so I don't think that I could do this job, but it would be quite cool to be Vice President. Also if I did do this job it would mean that I would be able to live in America which I would love!

This quiz will tell you the exact age you'll have your first kid

I got 29! I always wanted to have my first child when I am 26 or 27, but this will do!

Which celebrity man is secretly in love with you

I got Tom Hiddleston! I love Tom and I think he's an amazing actor, also he's such a gentleman

So to sum it all up, this year I'm going to go on a trip that I've always wanted to go on. Then I'm going to get married to Tom Hiddleston when I'm 21 and were going to own a home in the Bahamas! I'm going to be Vice President and have my first child when I'm 29! 

I hope you enjoyed this post! I loved doing it, I'm going to try and do more to these posts in the future! 

See you soon

Happy birthday Bobby

Happy birthday Bobby

Helloooooooooooooooooooooooooo everyone,

I hope you have all been feeling great over the past few weeks! On Saturday it was my brother Bobby's birthday, so I thought that I'd tell you guys about it.

On the 6th of May my brother turned 12! He woke me up at 7am on the dot, then we had to go into our parents room. Near my dads wardrobe there was a pile of gifts, he opened them all up and then went into his room and straight onto the Xbox. Typical teenage boy! We got him a new Xbox controller, some cool gadgets and some clothes. At about 6pm my family came around and we had food and cake. Thats all we really did on his birthday, I know that we didn't do much but he didn't really want to do anything.

On Sunday I went to the cinema with Lara to go and see Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol 2, and it was amazing! I .would definitely recommend it. After that I went home and went to Bobby birthday party. He went go-carting, I even got a go! We went there with a few of his friends and our cousin. On my first way around I crashed straight into a pile of tires. I now have a bruise on my shoulder  because I whacked it on the side! Anyway, it was so fun! 

I also thought that I should tell you guys that yesterday I had 2 injections! That might not seem like the biggest thing in the world, but to me it was because my biggest phobia is injections! 

Also I just wanted to tell you guys that I'm not going to be posting weekly, as you've probably guessed, because of all my school work and homework.

I hope you guys enjoyed this post!

See you soon

Holidays and exams

Holidays and exams

Hellooooooooooooooooooooooooo everyone,

I'm back in school now and during the first week back I had exams. On Tuesday (The first day back) I had maths and science exams and on Wednesday I had English and maths and on the Thursday I had my last exam day and I had to do a science test. I also have tests in most of my other classes. I have Spanish this week (I can't speak a word of Spanish though!), art over a few lessons, design technology and a few other lessons. I'll update you on all of that when I find out whats happening :)

Last post I said that I was going on holiday to Orlando and then we are going to Miami, we have changed it so were not going to Miami any more, now were going to ClearWater. I'm so so so excited still! I can't wait for the summer!

Over the holidays I haven't done much. I have been out shopping with my friends once or twice but apart from that I haven't done much. I have been really tired recently so I've spent most of the holidays relaxing and catching up on sleep, I am a teenager after all :) 

I have begun to watch some new YouTubers, I have been watching them for a few weeks now but I think that they are all amazing. Ali-A and Clare Siobhan, their both gamers so if you like gamers these guys are perfect for you to watch. I am also now watching the SacconeJolys. I watched them for a while just before I moved home but then I wasn't able to watch YouTube for a while but I watched them the other week and I have watched there videos since. Also Alessia os super cute! I'm gong to leave links down below to their channels. 

I don't know if I mentioned this last time I posted but I love Moana! I'm watching it right now whilst I'm writing this. I think its so creative and amazing and I just love it! My favourite part is the very beginning with baby Moana and the end with Te Kā. 

I hope you've enjoyed this post!
See you soon,

Giant Catch Up!

Giant Catch Up!

Helloooooooooooooooooooooooooo everyone,

Firstly I need to apologise. I have just realised that this year I have only written 5 posts. Its April and I've only done 5 posts! Anyway I thought that I'd tell you guys about whats happened in my life and tell you what I got from the Trafford centre yesterday as my posts with the most views are about shopping trips!

I'm on my school's half term right now for 2 weeks and I'm so glad! I've been in school (including play group) for 12 years now and I get flooded with homework so I hardly have any spare time! The first 3 days back I have exams. Right now I should be revising but its such a nice day so I've decided to write this post. The tests I have are 2 maths exams, 1 English exam and 2 science exams. I'm good at English, I'm ok at maths but I'm terrible at science and I know I'm going to get a really low mark! 

I'm obsessed with Ed Sheeran's new song Galway Girl. I also love Castle On The Hill and Shape Of You. I have also been listening to lots of Melanie Martinez, I think she's so cool!

I went to watch Beauty and the Beast a few weeks ago with Lara and I have to say its one of the best films I have ever seen! Emma Watson played an amazing Belle, I can't wait for it to be out on dvd! I also really want to see Ghost in the shell and Logan. I'm sooooo excited for Guardians of the Galaxy vol 2 to be out, I'm a huge marvel fan so I' also waiting for Thor Ragnarok too. This year has so many good films that are coming out, I'm not going to have any money left by the end of the year!

The other weekend I went to York with Lara and her family who took me to York Dungeons! It was so good, at times it was quite scary when people jumped out at you and appeared inform of you! Then we went to a restaurant for lunch. I had a cheese burger and chips and a chocolate milkshake. It was so nice. They also bought me a Captain America Pop figure.

The other day when I got home from school my mum wasn't home I thought nothing of it I thought that she had gone to the shops so I went and watched Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. and went on my laptop. Then about 3 hours later they came in smiling. I had no idea why so I carried on doing what I was doing. Then they called me and bobby into the kitchen and told us that we were going to Florida and we were staying in Universal for a week and then we were going to Miami and down the keys for a week! I'm so so so so so excited! I can't wait to go!

Yesterday I went to the Trafford centre. We went into Selfridges first where I bought some flip-flops (90 pence), black shorts with a really cool partern on them (5 pounds), a short all in one thats orange, purple, black and blue (6 pounds) and a white dress to go over my swimming costume (5 pounds). then we went over to Lush where we bought avobath (3.50 pounds), Fizzbanger (3.95 pounds), think pink (2.95 pounds) and chick 'n' mix (6.95 pounds)  Then we went to a coffee shop and I had a millionaires shortbread and apple juice. After that we went to New Look where I bought a peach swimming costume with a picture of palm trees (14.99 pounds),  some kaki shorts (9.99 pounds), a sky blue top (6.99 pounds), denim dungaree dress (10 pounds) and some sunglasses (8.99). Then we went home. 

I hope you've enjoyed this huge post!

See you soon,

Mia xx

Choosing the right options for you

Choosing the right options for you

Helloooooooooooooooooooooooooooo everyone,

Its been soooooo long! I have been flooded with homework and Ive been ill and I had another trip to London! I'll tell you about all of this later but first let me explain the title.

So I think I've told you that Ive been trying to pick my options and things like that. I personally found it quite easy as I know what I want to do when I'm older. I would love to work in TV or the film industry as a producer or a script writer of something along those lines so for my options I've chosen are Creative Imedia, Photography, Business and History. I am really happy with my choices too! I only know a few people who have chosen creative Imedia and I based all my options off exactly what I want to do in the future.

Over the past few weeks I haven't felt 100% but I'm carrying on with life! Last weekend we went to London with some friends which was great and the boys went to Wembley to watch Manchester United and they won!

Also it was Evas birthday on the 12th February, she's now 1!!

Thats all Ive been unto recently<3 I'll keep you posted on all my options don't worry <3

See you soon

Mia xx
