Bonjour, It feels like insanely long since I last posted here, wow. I've been so busy with school and everything, I've had barely any time to just sit back and type away. This past week I've been in the south of France, hiking and camping for my Gold Duke of Edinburgh Award. Thanks to my amazing group I think it's safe so say...
Bonjour, It's that time again- the end of an old month and the beginning of a new. Time for my second ever monthly favourites post, where I'll be talking about all the things I've been loving this month. Let's get cracking... A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray Just like last time, I'm starting off with my book of the month -...
Bonjour, So almost another week has gone by without another blog post, sorry. But today I'm posting about a new favourite artist of mine: Lorde. Quite a lot of Australian people I follow on Polyvore have been raving about her music for quite a while, so I finally decided to see what all the hype was about, and I really regret not doing...
Bonjour, Yes, I'm aware I haven't blogged in over a week, but things (aka homework) have been so hectic recently and the weekend seemed to slip away so quickly that I didn't get round to writing any posts. But I'm here today with a quick DIY! So when I was in the supermarket the other day, I happened to buy one of those...
Bonjour, Today has been a lovely, rainy September day, and I've spent it sitting at my laptop wearing a big woolly jumper and furry socks - alright, so I've been doing my homework all day, but who's counting? Anyway, today I'm posting a book haul, as a huge box arrived from Amazon yesterday, and this is my portion of the goodies. A Great...
Bonjour, Even though it's only the second week back, school is keeping me more than busy and I realise I'm not going to have a whole lot of time for blogging, to say the least. But I will try my best to keep it up, even if I only post short things - such as this post. Emilie Autumn is only of my...
Bonjour, A while ago I posted about my top 5 contemporary teen fiction books, and today I'm doing something similar with my favourite science fiction books. I'm counting science fiction as separate from dystopian fiction, which is coming soon, and also I haven't read a huge amount of sci-fi so I'm not all that knowledgeable on the subject. But anyway, here are my...
Bonjour, Last weekend I went shopping with my friend Joolz, and as the title suggests I bought an odd mix of things - usually I get some clothes or shoes, but although we went in a few clothes shops, I was totally uninspired. I'm also trying to limit my shopaholic tendencies by only buying stuff off a list every time I go shopping,...
Bonjour, I go back to school tomorrow (Tuesday). I know that lots of people have already been back for a while, but I decided to put together a quick list of 'Last Hurrahs' for the summer holidays, or just summer itself. Why not spend your last days of freedom and/or sunny weather doing a load of stuff to make the most of summer?...
Bonjour, As I said not too long ago in my Back to School Advice post, choosing what to wear for the first week back at school can be tricky, but today I came up with a few outfits that I think would be good for wearing at school. I put the outfits together on Polyvore, and I've done four ideas each for warm...
Bonjour, It's the end of August and I only have two days of holiday left - where did the summer go?! It seems only yesterday I was looking forward to over two months of nothingness, and now school is just around the corner. Anyway it's time for my first monthly favourites post! I planned to do this at the end of July, but...
Bonjour, At the weekend I went to one of my best friends' house for shopping, hanging out and a sleepover, and it was amazing and wonderful and I enjoyed myself a lot. While I was there we watched the film Lolita, which I've been wanting to see for oh-so-long, and I was thrilled to finally see it - so much so that I've...
Bonjour, If, like me, you're in the last week or so before you go back to school after the summer holidays, you'll know exactly how horrible and disheartening the prospect of school starting up again is. Going from the lazy routine of getting up whenever you like, doing whatever you like whenever you like, and going to bed whenever you like, getting back...
Bonjour, So I know I haven't posted in a short while, but I was at my friend's house at the weekend and this week I've started a summer job which is basically childminding, but it means most of my afternoon is gone and I was too tired to post afterwards. Anyway, I went shopping at the weekend and here's what I bought: Black...
Bonjour, I've been meaning to post this for a while, so hooray for me finally getting round to it! In the same vein as this post I wrote about Marina & the Diamonds, I'd like to share some more of my favourite music with you lovely readers. This time I'me featuring the band MS MR, and here's a quick summary from Wikipedia: MS...
