Be Gone 'Back to School Blues'

Hiya Guys,

Everyone's got their exam results and celebrated, even if you didn't do as well because who needs an excuse to have a party? 

But that does mean that, I hate to say it, it's basically the end of the summer and I know that sucks! The start of term looms whether it is fresher's week at university or your first day back at school or college. That means that you're back to waking up stupidly early and getting homework to do pretty much everyday and I know you'll all be dreading it.

Weirdly, I wasn't one of those people. I loved the idea of going back to school and being able to mess about with all of my friends every single day. The work was obviously something I could've done without but, more towards the end of my high school life, the start of the year was something I counted down the days until.

But fear not young prodigies *I know you aren't but I'd love to believe: I have dreams* I have some ways to make the start of the year something to look forward to and to make sure that the first few weeks go smoothly!

1) Buy loads of stuff
I know this is harder if you're British and at high school because you can't really have much fun buying a school uniform but I didn't let that stop me! If you can't buy awesome clothes then go for accessories because there are some things schools can't stop you from buying. Go crazy with your school bag, coat and stationary and make sure that they show off your personality as much as clothes do. I put loads of badges and pins on my bag and coat because they couldn't stop me from doing that! (Even though it's risky, I wore a lot of bands and bracelets but that could get you into trouble so don't blame me if you try this and it backfires lol)
2) Invite your friends over
Most of them you won't have seen for a month so I used to invite a friend or two over the day before to get ready *in the case of college where I could wear my own clothes* or make the most of the last few hours of summer. You can talk about how your summer went and just not think about school the next day!

3) Stay on top of your work
I know this sounds kinda shitty and boring but it actually means that you can enjoy your first few weeks of school, especially if you're doing your GCSE's. Stay on top of all your homework and coursework because if you get them done ASAP then you can spread the work out and have time to relax. Do them the best you can because it'll be stupid not putting in the work because you'll just have to do it again.

4) Organise your life
I love doing this! You can be really creative with this sort of stuff by making lists and creating diaries with loads of colours and stickers *look at SprinkleofGlitter for ideas on this* I mean as well as letting your creative juices flow, it's going to make sure that you know what you need to do and that it gets done in time. I have so many diaries and planners with awesome covers and designs inside and I can either use them to plan things or let my imagination wonder.
So, if you are dreading the start of the term: DON'T! Make the most of education and have fun because once you grow up, you're going to wish that you were back at school.

So have fun lovelies and stay smart ;)

That's all for now my dears,
See you soon

My Comprehensive not so Comprehensive Guide to Packing for University

Hiya Guys, I've been writing and re-writing different posts on university and after writing things seriously, I've decided to be less serious and write how I have managed to avoid failing at preparing for university. Here is my guide on how to pack, it isn't amazing but I haven't gone mad yet: 1. Make lists, almost like an inventory of things to pack Now I do think that this is partly because I like to procrastinate and I love the look and feeling of actually writing things. I am on list number 5 at the moment and it really helps in terms of figuring out what needs to be packed and when you need to pack things up, you can make sure that you don't forget anything. Make sure that you have one listing what you've packed as things go in the suitcase and, to avoid wasting time, put in things that you definitely know need to be packed the day before (this can be thing like hairdryer and hair straighteners). 2. Don't pack too much but don't pac...

WWE! A New Era?

Hiya Guys, I really hope that this week's blog title is obvious to those of you who understand and will most likely read this post! I am a big WWE fan and, before you say 'oh it's fake', well I do know that but I'd like to also say that Marvel and DC and all those films are also fake. So, these last few weeks made history in WWE by having the Brand Split of RAW and Smackdown and making them both live.  Here is my overview of the Draft last week as well as the first week of the so-called 'new era.' Draft Day I will be honest and say that Draft Day was a huge disappointment in terms of the draft itself and the way it was organised. It seemed extremely lackluster and rushed in comparison to the other years and seemed to be very much focused on the Managers of each of the companies (Stephanie/ Mick Foley and Shane/ Daniel Bryan) instead of the superstars. However, when it comes to the picks itself, I was pleasantly surprised and happy. I think...

What? I've actually finished university!

Hi my lil fairies, It's been a whirlwind few weeks, and probably months to be fair, but I've finally finished university - well I finished a few weeks ago and I've been trying to get back to normality. I managed to get a part time job and I know that, sooner or later, it'll dawn on me that I won't ever go back to university. I think the biggest thing for me is that I've pretty much spent all my life in education and it's been at the core of my life. As soon as I turned 3/4 I started primary school and then I was there until I went to high school where I spent 5 years until I went to college for two, which was then ended by 3 years at university - that's a long 18 years in some sort of education. It's crazy thinking about it now, that I was pretty much given a full blown schedule for most of my life and now I'm free... I can't say how much I've enjoyed these last three years. Even though they've been some of the toughest, they...
