Wonder Day: Friday
I wanted to do an actual post but I haven't got any photos prepared .. and I don't really know what to blog about.. but yeah, it's Friday so I'll let myself off and instead just kind of pour my sleep deprived thoughts into this post :)
- School is killing me. Hard. I always seem to have billions of assignments and homework and coursework and other boring thinks due in and I'm always two steps behind where I should be with things... I put the Pro in Procrastinate.
- My best friend is the only reason I haven't died in maths yet because she's hilarious!
- I think I might make a revision/study post about good tips and advice and stuff because I have my mock A-level exams after Easter so it will hopefully put me in the spirit as well as hopefully help you. I also want to a fitness motivation/tips post as I could do with improving my fitness in order to recover from the lack of boxing training I did the majority of last year due to work and exams and then Christmas so I need to get on top of that, but I think I could help in some way as a I'm quite an active person :)
- Tomorrow my plans are to:
- Get paint- I'm redoing my room as soon as it's warmer.. so stay tuned for roomspiration and decor posts ;)
- Plan post and take blog photos in bulk- This will most likely consist of a lot of colourful lists
- Practise/play around with photography- Aiming to be more tumblr ;) Inspired by a reading account I saw on instagram, how she put together photos where so cute and eye catching. I think it's instagram.com/_halfbl00dprincess ..yeah it is.
- BLOG. DRAW. READ. REPEAT
- Maybe homework.. ew
- I'm currently sweating as my younger sister just taught my big sister and me a dance to Uptown Funk (she's an amazing dancer.. yet she wants to be an actress..) the dance is awesome! I can wait till the next party I go to!!
- Lent started like a week ago and I gave up chocolate, like I done for just about every year since year 5 or 6 (or some time in junior school). So no more mini eggs for a while :'( I honestly don't know how I can go on much longer without in my life!
- On that note, I also finished all four seasons of teen wolf and season five doesn't come out until summer! Ugh!
- I'm so ready for spring, speaking of which, have you see the Frozen fever trailer? I don't care if it's overrated, I'm excited!
- I hope I actually get stuff done this weekend so it won't drag on, so then I'll have more blogging time
- Currently reading: Throne of glass (finally got time to read it, I'm nearly 3/4 of the way through and it's so good!)
And..... I think that's everything bobbing at the top of my mind, well at least all the ones I csan put into words easily.
Thanks for reading!
Hope you enjoyed ^.^
What's on your mind?

My Pinterest Obsession
There's no hiding the fact that I'm obsessed with Pinterest. It's the place I go to for inspiration and I certainly fine it there! It's one of my favourite social medias and I don't even use it to be social, in fact it probably makes me more unsocial ;)
.png)
When I first got Pinterest I didn't care for it much because it looked confusing but after a while you could say I got used to it because I now have 18 boards and 2247pins.. oops? This tends to happen with all social medias, like I didn't understand instagram at first and now I have an art account and Twitter scared me.. But it's different with Pinterest. Pinterest is my selfish place where I only Pin things that I want to Pin! haha okay, I'm not trying to be selfish but it's true ;)
Hiding my love of Pinterest from this Blog would be like hiding I'm secretly a pop star and go by the name of Hannah Montana.. not as exciting? you clearly haven't witnessed the awesomeness of pinterest! :D
So here's mine:
- projects to try (24 pins)
This board is for when I find a DIYs I like but they don't fit in with my other boards. Like how to make a wand.. you know just casual stuff
- roomspiration (263 pins)
Roompiration is a board filled with room inspiration for my bedroom, mainly DIY room decorating ideas. I'm kind of obsessed with room decor and I honestly don't think there's a DIY room decor youtube video I haven't watched..
- Christmas (402 Pins)
Around Christmas time last year I got a little too excited some might say.. I like to call it enthusiastic participation :D In this board there's things like decor, gift ideas, treats and just all things CHRISTMASY! .. it's a beautiful place! ahh..
- Costume ideas (71 pins)
I started pinning Halloween costumes around august? in my Halloween board and then I found some costumes I liked but weren't halloweeny enough in my opinion, one thing lead to another and now here we are with costumes for all occasions!
- Generally awesome things (17 pins)
You know that drawer we all have that we put all the random sh*t in that doesn't seem to fit anywhere? Yeah? (haha I rhymed /).^) well this board is my "junk draw" of pinterest and I genuinely don't know what's in there aha
- nail art (124 pins)
When I first left secondary school after my GCSE exams I got really into nail polish because it was the first time I could wear it for a week without having to take it off (which isn't actually the case because I have to take it off on Thursday for ccf and weekends for work :( ) I'm yet to try most of these but it will happen!
- art journal inspiration (160 pins)
Like I said in a previous post I tend to pick up hobbies and interests a lot and art journaling was one of them, my interest in it has faded some what as I liked watching videos of other artists creating them but never really got time to do them my own. I'll probably start again when I'm older and when I have more time.
- hand lettering (12 pins)
Not really sure when or why I made this board but I'm presuming I saw some fancy lettering and had to put it somewhere :)
- prom hair styles (8 pins)
My prom was in June last year and at the time I guess I was looking for a hairstyle and voila! I probably won't use this board again but I don't have the heart to delete cause you know, memories and all
- Erador inspiration (509 pins)
Aha okay I kind of have this whole fantasy world and a story in my head that I've never told anyone about.. so I thought I'd tell a couple of random people on the Internet xD In this board I keep images that give me inspiration for my fantasy novel(s). I wont tell you anything else as I plan on writing it when I'm older and more experienced :) ((and by "in my head" I mean I literally think about it ALL the time! whenever I'm day dream (50% of the time) I'm usually mentally playing my story inside my head and creating characters, plots, histories and dynamics of my world.. is that weird? ))
- drawing inspiration (334 pins)
I use this frequently to give me ideas for what to draw when ever I have drawer's block. Oh the creativity that this board holds!
- Halloween (57 pins)
Just like I got excited for the run up to Christmas, I got excited -but not as excited- for Halloween. This board has costumes, treats and decorating ideas!
- Autumn (9 pins)
I started to get excited for autumn after watching American youtubers and seeing how "tumblr" they made it look.. and then it got cold and it made me sad that the leaves weren't autumnal colours like yellow and orange because they were all muddy and smushed together as it rains a lot so I stopped looking.. CURSE YOU BRITISH WEATHER CURSE YOU!
- Game of Thrones (5 pins)
I am obsessed with the TV show Game of thrones and saw some pictures while I was a browsing my feed that I couldn't not make a board for!
- Fashion inspiration (145 pins)
This board is mainly what inspired my lust list and it really shows my sense in style, even if I don't own half the items to make the outfits :( but I can dream! (and hence the lust list!)
- A.L.I.C.E
This is just where I've started sharing my blog posts :)
- hair and makeup inspiration
And the last board I have so far is where I store any picture of hair and makeup I like. I've been using this a lot lately as I'm trying to get better at doing eyeshadow and there are lots of useful pins!
Okay, so that's my Pinterest so far. I absolutely love it and think I may be addicted to it as I can spend hours at a time on it!
You'll probably here a lot of Pinterest on my blog form now on like "top pins" and stuff :)
Thanks for reading
Hope you enjoyed ^.^
Don't forget to leave your pinterest in the comment so I can stalk I mean follow you ;)
Have a super fantastic day!
CYA!

Wonder Day: Friday
Hello! I thought I'd do a summary of today as I'm too tried to write one of post ideas but I'm feeling bloggey ;) I've seen and read a lot of bloggers like zoella for example who do day summaries and I wanted to join in. I'll probably only do this when I want to just get out what's in my head that I can't make an actual post about.. Doesn't that even make sense? Haha I hope! I'm going to call this wonder day playing off my name, Alice which is like Alice in wonderland also it's because I'll share the wonders of my day :D
Here a some pictures I took the other day:
- Walking my dog on the beach has probably been the highlight of my day (a part from ft with my chummy :D)
- I've grown to hate Friday's purely because I always have my worst lessons on them. This years it's A-level maths, need I say more?
- Despite having the advantage of being one of the only fun things I've done today, I really do enjoy walking my dog on the beach (she's actually my sister dog, just point that out in case one day she reads this and shouts at me ;))
I love running on the beachI love running next to the beach as well, on the sea front (I don't like running on sand) something about standing next to the sea makes me feel really peaceful and motivational.. Haha I'm not sure why
- I'm one of those people who have like a billon hobbies, I don't ever drop a hobbit or interest but I always pick more up. Lately they've been; blogging (for nearly two weeks now), drawing (like always), spotify and reading. I have always liked the thought of reading but I'm a terrible and extremely slow reader, by nature and I've always seen reading a book or series like a challenge instead of a pleasure. So I never got in to reading when I was younger because I took me so long to read a book. Now I don't care how long it takes me Because I love it!
- I'm also falling back into my obsession with room decor. I've been watched so many videos on YT and have you seen my Pinterest? ;)
- I've eaten 4 bags of Mini eggs in 5 days... I need help!
- I had a lovely conversation with my chummy earlier via FaceTime earlier involving some weird faces and unicorn hair, you can see the pictures on my Twitter if you want (and yes we call each other the same name Zoe and Louise do but I started calling my friend that before I knew see watched YouTube purely because I liked the word and well it stuck)
- I picked up Throne of glass form the library on my way home from school and I'm so excited to read it!
- Currently reading: Allegiant and Amulet: the cloud searcher
Whale I think that's everything for today, this felt so good.. I can't even
Hope you enjoyed reading ^.^
Please leave a comment tell me anything that's on your mind at the moment (the randomer the better xD)
