It's Finally Over!!!!

Wow! I can't quite believe that it is actually over...

The past few weeks of my life have been filled with pure dread, stress and panic. Most nights I could barely sleep with worry of the exams which were to come the next day. I felt physically and mentally drained 24/7 and all I wanted to do was sleep (my brain wouldn't let me :/ ) but there was always some sort of revision to do.

Being one of the world's biggest procrastinators I found it hard to focus on revising and nearly always found something else I 'needed' to do. However after a lot of willpower and encouragement from my friends and family I managed to revise effectively. Now all I have to do is wait a few months to receive my results (hopefully good ones).

Anyway now its all over and I can finally go back to using my time to do things that I enjoy and actually want to do. I'm planning to decorate my room and write more posts for this blog and my second one. Relaxing in the sun is also something I will be looking forward to... when England finally decides that it is actually summer!!!

Some big changes will be happening soon and I'm just glad that I no longer have to stress about exams or (most) of the deadlines for my work. At the moment though I just want to focus on getting my life back on track and carrying on with all of the things I had to put on hold because of extra work.

Have you had a stressful month or a relaxing one?

April & May Favourites

April & May were very busy months for me (with Easter and my Birthday as well as the start of my exams) but I still managed to find a few favourites.

Food

Smarties Easter Egg-A gift from my grandparents for Easter which didn't last very long.

Cadbury Bunny-An Easter gift from my Auntie.

Celebrations-A whole box of great types of chocolate:What's not to love? (I'm not too keen on the bounty and snickers though :/)

Frozen Cadbury Caramel-Freezing this makes it so much more enjoyable; it lasts a lot longer and still tastes great.

I think its safe to say that I like chocolate.

Blackcurrant flavour Soothers - I don't think it actually counts as food but I've been using these a lot over May because I was really ill.

Hair

Trevor Sorbie Frizz-Free Smoothing spray-I sometimes suffer with fairly frizzy hair and when I found this I fell in love. <3 You spray it on to your hair after you have washed it and then blow dry it and the frizz isn't there, only lovely smooth hair.

Make up

No.7 Lipstick 'Soft Berry 690'-Having really pale skin can be a huge problem when it comes to make up but I've found that this lipstick has a strong colour but it doesn't overpower my whole face.

Nails

Avon Colour Trend Nail Enamel 'Vixen'- Avon don't sell this shade of nail varnish anymore but the red/purple colour really suits my skin tone and the colour is one of my favourite Colour Trend ones.

Clothes & Jewellery

Silver statement Necklace- My sister gave me a lovely necklace for my birthday and it goes with everything!!! I've barely taken it off since the end of April.

Off the shoulder dress from New Look-I wore this dress for my birthday after buying it about a week before.

Films

Insurgent- I went to see this for my birthday, OMG I can't wait for Allegiant to come out!


Stationary

<=This (middle) Stabilo BOSS highlighter- It may look like a normal highlighter but trust me, the colour is amazing!!! It isn't quite pink but it isn't orange, its sort of just a mix which looks amazing. A lot of my revision notes are now this colour and I couldn't be happier.

Music

OMI-Cheerleader

Jason Derulo-Want to Want Me
