Dear Maria,

 Dear Maria, 

You asked us to tell you your strengths, and since you're a nagging lil bitch, I thought i'd tell you over the internet, considering you've been persuading me to start my blog again. 

Where to start... You, my little Bulgarian friend, are one of the most influential people in my life. I know that with wisdom beyond your years and a gleam in your eye that never fades, you touch the lives of everyone around you, undoubtedly for the better. The confidence you have is spellbinding, you take life with ease and confidence and achieve your dreams without fail. If I, or my kids, ever have as much confidence as you, I will be the proudest person alive. This confidence is what makes you a life changing person, your ability to take life in your stride and your energy to persistently say yes when the world is constantly saying no, is what makes me most proud to be your friend. But, your smile when you reach a goal, is what makes me most happy to be your friend. I hope no one ever budges this confidence because I know with it you can conquer the world. 

Kindness is something everyone aims to have, but many people  genuinely lack. You, however, have as much kindness in your heart as knowledge in your brain. It's endless. You put others first and want to make their lives just as amazing as yours (and for your shortness, you give pretty good hugs). No matter how shit your day has been, you are always there to give people a positive push in the right direction. And although I have heard you bitch about many people (mainly when you're drunk), I know that every bone in your body is used in order to help others. 

However within people are there are always differences, their interests, their opinions and their styles. It is your fascination in other people's interests and your thirst for knowledge that I truly love about you. Whether it's me rambling on about sport, psychology or Cecelia Ahern, you always listen with full attention and take everything on board, remember it and then add it into later conversations. You truly are a friend that remembers the little things. Our lives are made up of big life moments that change our paths, however it is the little moments that make our happiness and create our fondest memories, and  I know deep in my heart my fondest memories are with you. 


Me and you, we're completely different. You're an organised business woman, and i'm a disorganised mess. I love fiction, you love facts. My wardrobe is a floral disaster, yours is stylish and chic. However, we just click, hours of pointless conversations, hysterical laughter and DMCs are the purest form of friendship and that truly is what we have. So, before this gets too soppy. You asked us to make lists of the things you're good at, but that list is truly endless. You're a selfless, driven, inspiring, knowledgeable woman who deserves all the recognition she deserves. Your time is coming and it's all down to how amazing you are. 

Love always, 
Lois Mae  

I'm Back!

Heya,

After a hectic 6 months I finally have enough time to run this blog again, and write about the things I love! So as an update, here are my favourite things of 2015 so far!

1. Film- Pitch Perfect 2

Bit of an obvious choice but it had me in stitches. We went and saw this the night before our last day of school and we were so excited. As a massive fan of the first film I was scared the second one would disappoint (as many sequels do!) however, that wasn't the case. With the same type of obvious humour and hilarious characters, this film was amazing! This film focused a lot more on the minor characters than the first one, and overall this made the story line more gripping and exciting. This film is a must watch  if you're  having a girls-night.

Rating: 9/10

2. Album- The Perks Of Being A Wallflower Soundtrack

When this film came out I was instantly blown away by the soundtrack. The use of classic songs perfectly captured the emotions portrayed in the film. From the freedom of 'Heroes' to the sadness of 'Asleep'. I was obsessed with this soundtrack when the film originally came out in 2012, but then I kind of forgot about it, However this year has been a year of making final memories and so, recently I have reconnected with this amazing album. I highly recommend listening to it, no matter what mood you're in!

Rating: 11/10

3. Make-up:  Body Shop Shimmer Waves Blush

In my opinion, The Body Shop is often underrated for their makeup. This blusher provides a range of shades of pink and even a silvery highlighter. So, whether you need a bright pink blush that stands out or a subtle coral you can use these waves to get a natural effect whilst choosing the shades you want!

Rating 7/10

They are my main three favourites for the year so far! However, I have also been loving the shop Monki (which I discovered whilst exploring London),  Cecelia Ahern's books (Currently rereading where rainbows end for the millionth time), the Women's World Cup and my signature lemon cake!

Sorry it's been so long!

I'll be back soon!

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, 

Lois Mae
