Weird meet up and books

Hey guys! 
Before I start, I 'd just like to say thank you. Now I have over 100 page views, which is cool. I like how many of you keep coming back or do read this. Please comment how you found me if you are reading and possibly when you found me or how I helped you or made you laugh. But thank you. <3

Anyway, today I went out with my friend and she has brought along her old friend from the UK (mind you, I am from the UK), so I was kinda expecting "sick" humour. Oh no. It was terrible, because they all went to..."wild" schools, so they knew a lot of inappropriate things, things I would rather not know at my age, after all I'm not 15 until May so...Anyway, they are lovely but very open about themselves and their lives, well my friend's friend. So I wasn't really into the conversations unless they were clean, which was pretty rare. 

Which got me thinking, the next generation is going to be bad. I know we have time to change it, but we have a lot of young people doing things they shouldn't. And with friends and social media, I do think it is easy to stumble across or end up in a place you shouldn't so here are some tips:

  • remember, if you are young please don't try to grow up, I'm 14 but I still miss being 9 and 10
  • if you have friends doing things you are too young to do, don't do it, even if you are their age, please don't give in
  • make sure you know what you are getting into
Moving on, I bought a book called "The apple tart of hope", Get Weird (by Little Mix) and HDWEUH - the movie (5SOS). What, however I pray I won't move away from either of them because with Little Mix, I have been supporting them for so long and waiting to see them live and I am soon and 5SOS have a big part in my life, in which I support them more. Many people move away from things and I pray I won't do the same.

Anyway, I love to think about deep things and creative writing, which links to good books you should definitely read:
  • The Maze Runner series - it is way better than the movies (and the movies are good)
  • Apple and Rain - beautiful story, which I really love
  • Sophie's World - a friend got this for me and I haven't read it fully yet but it is really deep and lovely
  • Girl Online series - I honestly didn't expect this to be good, but it really is
  • To all the boys I loved before - Jenny Han is a creative genius, just read any book by her
  • Frozen - no "let it go" serenade but quite romantic and cute.
Okay that is all, I would please like reader to comment what book they recommend or something I should write about because I really do love this a. Please comment, it would brighten up my day.

Thank you lovelies :3

Future awaits and potentially ruining my life??

Hey guys,

So recently I was asked what I wanted to be. Being 14 years old I replied "I had no clue.", but gave a few options. My father then told me that I was nearing my days at university so I had to know what I wanted to take.

And then I ruined my life. 
5SOS have now become a huge part of my life, like YouTubers had in December 2014. I have been in the 5SOSFam for a few months but there are a lot of things I knew before I joined, which is probably why I like them so much. So with that aside, I have sadly put 5SOS in front of everything I love; my future, my career choices, my friends and family only because they literally saved my life when I was alone.

Now, if you are in the fam - or any fandom to be honest *sigh* -  you would be aware of drama. The boys I remember from 2014, who were constantly popping up on my feed, were dorky and cute but after that all this drama started, which broke the fandom slowly. Now the most recent one is the Rolling Stones article, which was indeed powerful enough to ruin their careers. The article portrayed them as mean, desperate, lust wanting boys (as well as depressed which a very few fans noticed), basically like those teenage boys no one wants to be around. Many old and new fans and people in general lost respect for them, moved away from them and decided this wasn't something they didn't want to be apart of. Me? I was horrified. I had this vision of those 2014, happy chaps that were just innocent lambs, and I admit it slapped me in the face, as I had just started to be IN the fam(I already liked their music). Many fans however, believed the article was fake. I however, have 70% belief that the article isn't as it seems. 
Like me, many fans have forget these boys have grown up. They will be doing a lot more "things" we'd never even CONSIDER. It daunts on me now that, many people have become so obsessed with the band, they don't see a fault in something they do. I for one, don't always praise them if they lack their normal, clean performance. Yet many fans give excuses, which is worrying as you may be destroying your life and throwing away your future. I have registered that I am throwing away everything for a fantastic group of boys who unfortunately:

  1. don't know me
  2. have no idea I exist
  3. have already made their living
So I have occupied myself in other things to prevent this getting worse
  • drawing - you can make fan art which no only allows you to still connect with your favourite musician, but you also take a step back from them and social media
  • hobbies - I have started to play the guitar, because I love many 5SOS songs that are played on the guitar. this increases my attention span and makes me more intelligent, while still occasionally enjoying my faves
  • give your phone up - for me, I have exams coming, so my mum has taken away my phone so i can focus.
  • rewards - if you leave that artist and the results are amazing, treat yourself! Buy yourself tickets to their concert, a poster whatever you think you deserve. But why? When you reward yourself like this, you get more determined to do better to earn something better, meaning you will work harder.
Back to the future (smooth), it is important you have a rough idea of what you are looking at. Like if you like reading, solving and analysing, being a banker or lawyer is suitable for you (don't take my word though). Building and designing - engineering is a good idea. However, to make sure you become 100% about what path you take, you must:

  • check in universities what subjects you like lead to what courses
  • choose a university and see if any subjects you like are popular or recommended
  • constantly look at jobs you are interested in and see what you need, just incase a subject you dislike is essential.
  • make sure it is something you will love - money is lovely, but doing a job you won't like for money won't make you happy
  • put yourself out there! - if you like singing, dancing or art, display it on social media and if you don't like that you have time to change (if you do it while you are young) or if you want to be a athlete, train anyway you can (in or outside of school) and push yourself.
As great as I am at giving advice *sarcasm* I do procrastinate and avoid it (my last blog speaks about procrastinating if you want my super cool advice) which is another reason why I probably shouldn't have a blog. But it is nice to see loads of people reading this, I really do appreciate it. 
Also I decided to conquer my fears of people and started posting videos of my singing (using this name) and it does work. I am more comfortable with speaking to people, probably because someone gave me a dislike :'(. But with that aside, please do comment about what I should speak about next, as it will probably help me when I forget to write my blog.

Thanks guys, hope you excel in life! <3

NOTE: Just read my first blog post, it shows how dorky and shy I was and I have come so far through 5 other blog posts, hope you too conquer your confidence.

Intense school load,OBD (?) and fake fans

Hey guys. Yes, I know it's been a while. I am pretty mad at my lack of frequency with my blogs. So anyway I just wanted to let you all know I am having a good new year and I hope you all are too. I am taking my GCSE's so I have been working my butt off...HAD.

I know a lot of people can relate to this but do you know when you get so into a band it almost takes over your life? Yeah me too. Recently, I've been really into 5SOS (5 seconds of summer). If that name doesn't ring a bell just know they sang that song about underwear. Haha. Anyway this is what i mean by OBD (Obsessive Band Disorder). I am not trying to be rude or offend when I say that. Anyway getting too "obsessed" with a band is dangerous. Honestly, you see how many people lose everything from being too attached. Everything goes downhill. As well as up, but downhill is a problem right? I have conquered this (sort off) despite how dorky 5SOS are and how fantastic their music is:

  • think about your future- will that band help you get there?
  • not to be mean but they have no idea who you are (sometimes), this will really help you focus
  • school doesn't last forever and you won't get the same opportunities again
  • they'll be waiting for you when you've done some work
Nicely, this links to procrastinating. *gasp* That's right worse diversion that causes failed grades and sad children (as well as lack of studying..) When you get a large work load, it gets hard to want to do it (trust me i know) but there are ways to overcome this
  • will procrastinating finish your work?
  • think of the free time you'l have without worrying about whether you'll finish or not
  • when procrastinating, make sure it is at least relevant to school.
Finally before i go, we need to talk about FAKE FANS. I read a comment on YouTube that made me sad and angry. It was people complaining that newer fans are fake and ruining the boys(this was 5SOS). I haven't been with the band for their 4 years. Only 1. But I'm pretty sure I'm a real fan. Does it really matter when you came and found them? No, it doesn't. What matters is that why you like them and helping them (and yourself) get further in life. Technically without us "FAKE FANS" 5SOS could still be a hidden band. So no, comment, you are 100% incorrect. We also can't change them. Is it our fault they are getting more and more famous by the second (pun intended)? Is it our fault if they can't handle it? The answer to both is no. They are not your little secret anymore and stop pretending. The fans should be grateful that more people are appreciating them rather than something else. We are a family right? So if you hear anyone tell you this. Tell them what I said, hit them with the painful, cold truth.

Sorry for the harsh "rant" at the end. But I feel as though the world is small yet big, so not everyone is going to get an opportunity, not everyone is going to find a band early, but who cares? Didn't you want them to get far.

I hate breaking promises so I won't promise I'll be once a week frequnt but I will promise I will try my best to keep you all updated.

Love you all.

Weird Reunions and Happy Purchases

Hi guys,

This is going to be two stories as I have two days to talk about. Hope you enjoy.

Day 1
I met up with my primary friends and I was so excited to see them again. When I met them I was like "Yesss!" and they greeted me sweetly and I was very grateful. Then we had a meal and it was quite fun but they spoke mainly about themselves and their school so I couldn't participate in it as I had no clue who they would talk about. Then among the table they would whisper and tell secrets so some of us were left out. 

Then after the food we went to shop. Immediately, half the group disappeared without another word. The other 4 of us went to a different shopping centre but we had an amazing time. After, we said goodbye and my friend and I went on the train. We had a great time but I think it would have been better if we stuck together.

Tips on what to do when your group splits up.

  • Go with the side you want to.
  • The split up group MUST stay together
  • Don't take it personally.


Day 2
My mum told me that my friends from 2008 were coming over. I was worried that I would be awkward with them so I kinda wanted to stay behind.

Funnily enough, they didn't show up but their mum did. They had gone "camping". As if, I've pulled that card so many times so I knew what that actually meant. Anyway, their mum was really bubbly so it wasn't too awkward. After our lunch at Nandos, we went for a small shop. I finally got Zoella's Soak Opera. I don't really know if it's good but I really wanted it. Plus I got 2 phone cases from Claire's and they are amazing. I managed to persuade my mum to help me purchase these items and I realised how important it is to know how to argue and persuade.

Tips on how to persuade.

  • Don't whine: it will make you look like you don't mean what you are trying to say.
  • Have a point to back up your "evidence".
  • Negotiate or make a deal with that person.


Okay that's all I have to say today. But I want to hear any good clothing shops. Please comment, follow and  Google+ the blog posts you would like others to read some of my posts. I also wanted to say thank you guys so much, now I have over 30 pageviews overall, that's crazy. I'm so happy and I love you all so much.

Awkward meet up and 2 day shopping

Hey guys! I'm sorry I haven't been daily in my posts but I will try to post weekly.As you can tell by the title, you can probably tell this a story. So, a couple of days ago, I went out with two of my friends. I hadn't spoken to them properly in a year so we should have had something to talk about...should have. Well when we saw each other at the park and I immediately knew it was going to be awkward. It really was. We couldn't find anything to talk about and they would talk among themselves, leaving my sister and I to chat. They even grabbed their phone straight after we sat down at the park cafe. I mean like c'mon,if I knew you weren't going to talk to me, I would have texted you. So I was quite offended as had been a year I had met them in person so, thanks guys. One of them did try to include me but we both knew that wasn't going to work...After this, I was super tired and my mum agreed to let us all (my family and I) go shopping. It was really fun but the budget I had made it a lot harder.

Here's a tip on how to stay on your budget.
  • Look online for the clothes you want and write the price so you don't go over your budget.
  • Budget yourself on how much you spend in each shop.
  • Take a certain amount of money with you to each shop.
  • Get help from your mum or dad to help protect your cash!
I hope guys enjoyed this, love you all.
