2014- An Interesting Year!

Heya,

Happy New Year!

I hope you all had an amazing New Year's Eve, I did! I just wanted to take a moment to reflect on 2014 and what a marathon of a year it was. 

The year started off amazingly! I went to the RED tour with my four best friends and it was insane, I fell in love with Taylor all over again; There's nothing like singing cheesy lyrics at the top of your lungs with thousands and thousands of other people! It was a dream come true! I also saw You me at six, something that has been on my bucket list for years, it was mind blowing to see these people I have admired and loved for years suddenly in front of me! I can not describe how amazing it was to be there, it felt so surreal. 

After The Muddy Race For Life

Then it went down hill, I lost 3 of my close family members with in months of each other close to my A level exams. It was a horrible time, and seeing my family so upset broke my heart. However, with the help of my amazing best friends I came out the other side. After, I decided to raise more money for Cancer Research and  thank my family more often. I was determined to make 2014 amazing again. To my best friends, I can never thank you enough for always being there when I was at my worst, even if you didn't know it. 




Summer came, and it was the best summer of my life! I excelled in my AS Levels, I cried in shock; I thought they gave me the wrong slip of paper! I went on holiday with my family and friends to St. Ives, which is like a second home to me, and even though it's in England I can't imagine going anywhere else! To finish it off I went to Reading Festival,  which was insane! I saw so many amazing acts and had soooo much fun, I WILL go again sometime in the future!  That summer I also made some amazing friends I refer to as the biscuits, they are amazing and cheer me up when I'm feeling glum. However, they will never replace my gals!!

Winter brought hella load of 18th birthdays, parties and celebrating. It's weird to think that most of my friends are 18 and I still have 6 months to go! I cannot forget Christmas!!!! I was so spoilt this year and I am grateful for everything I received, however this year has made me realise, I am more grateful for my family!

Speak soon,

Hello October!

Heya,

October already! This year is flying by but luckily autumn is still in full flow.

Now, I am 100% a 'summer girl' however there's something in me that loves autumn. Maybe it's the hot chocolates,  the cosy knit wear, the movie marathons with the girls, the walks out in the countryside, or the  nice pots of tea. Something about it just makes me feel warm and fuzzy! And I know this winter will be just as good.

I have so much to look forward to this October as well! Firstly, It's two of my best friend's 18th birthdays! This means, parties, group hugs and singing at the top of our lungs as well as cute pressies! (I'll probably do a post on these!)

It's also the release of Taylor Swift's new album 1989! I know this is a bit controversial as soooo many people don't like her, but I love her. However, I am not sure how I feel about this new album, she has said that it will be a lot more 'pop' than her previous albums. This kinda saddens me because her country songs are my favourite! But I'm still looking forward to hearing it because I know that even if I don't like it at first, it'll grow on me!

Also autumn = shopping! I can't wait to build up my autumn/winter wardrobe this season with cute dresses and knitwear! I love the rich colours and textures that are used in autumn, especially deep orange and                                                       maroon! eeeeek!

Finally, the thing I'm most excited for, is the 'Love, Rosie' Film!!!! Now, this is based on my all time favourite book ' Where Rainbows End' , and has 2 of my favourite actors in Sam Claflin and Lily Collins. I'm so excited because I've been waiting for so long and I know it'll be just perfect! I can already tell they've changed the story line a bit, from the adverts, but we have to stay optimistic until it's released! (22nd October)

So there we are! A bit of a pointless post but I'm so excited for October!


Speak soon,

C'est Moi!

Heya,
So this is my first blog post and it's all very exciting! (although I'm still not sure what I'm doing!!) But I thought I'd give it a go with a little intro into who I am.

Yeah, I'm Lois, I'm 17 from England. At the moment I am studying for my A levels, which are; Chinese, French, maths and psychology, and even though it's a lot of work doing 4 subjects as A2 I love them all so much! As is obvious, I love languages! I'd love to do a degree in Chinese and Linguistics but whether I'll get the grades or not is another story. 

I also love reading, mainly YA novels, however recently I have got into psychological thrillers and books on Chinese society. My favourite books are 'Where Rainbows End' by Cecelia Ahern, 'Before I Fall' by Lauren Oliver and 'The Storyteller' by Jodi Picoult. All of which are very different, but they all hold a special place in my heart!

At the moment I am playing for a Women's football team. I have played at the same club since under 10's and it's unbelievable how far we've come. We've definitely had our ups and downs!

I don't want to bore you too much, so here's my final paragraph (exhale). My other major passion is music. My favourite bands are punk/rock/punk, but I also have guilty pleasures for Taylor Swift and 5SOS (haters gunna hate). Reading Festival is my favourite and always brings good memories, I love it sooo much!

Festival season!

So that's it! A brief intro into my life.
