8 Photos of Happiness

Last week I was tagged by the completely amazing Lou's World to do the eight photos of happiness tag. You can her post here which is great and you should definitely check it out. The tag was created by Ariel who also has wonderful blog.

 The rules of this tag are:

Thank your nominator and link them in the post
Link the creator Ariel
Post 8 photos of happiness (the photos can be anything that represents a moment, object, place or feeling that makes you happy)
Pop in a brief description of the photo, why you chose it or let the photos do the talking!
Spread the happiness and tag up to ten other bloggers!


This post is a little strange for me because I've never shown a picture of myself on this blog before so I'm a little nervous. Before I felt I could deny that this blog is mine if someone I know were to find it but now I can't so never mind. I think it'll be better that way. When looking through them, I noticed that my hair is straight all the time but in reality it is a big, curly mess which is misleading but great for me. I guess that's all I needed to say so lets look at the pictures.

March Favourites

Honestly March wasn't a good month for me. I didn't post on here much for many different reasons. As you may know from my previous post, my mental health hasn't been so great recently so I just didn't feel like I could write anything. And there were times when I was genuinely busy (I like went outside and stuff). A few days I'd planned on posting but got suddenly very scared that someone I know will find my blog and I couldn't do it. But I got here in the end and this is my, kind of late, March Favourites.

February Favourites

I know that recently I haven't been posting much and what I have been posting isn't as good as I'd like it to be but today I thought I would come back with a favourites post. These are some of the types of posts I enjoy writing most and although February hasn't been the best month for me, I thought I would share with you what I did like. 

The Liebster Award 3

I have been nominated by Umaybe Beautiful, Just Another Girl, and SophieAliceInWonderland to do the Liebster award. I have already done this twice but seen as I loved writing the first two and this one will be a little different I thought I'd do it again. All three of these girls have amazing blogs that you should definitely check out by clicking on their names. 

The Blog Share Tag

Along with the rest of the Beau Bloggers,I was tagged to do the Blog Share Tag. I was tagged by the wonderful Lou's World (You can see her blog here). There's not much else to say so I hope you enjoy.

December Favourites

It is currently the 26th of December (Boxing Day) and every year my family have another Christmas day which is very exciting but I got some spare time and thought I'd write a post. It's been a fairly average month and here are my favourite things from it:

Favourite Film:

Holiday In Handcuffs. In December I try to watch as many Christmas films as possible. I especially love watching quite bad, low budget Christmas films and this one was definitely my favourite.

Favourite TV show:

Some Girls. I love this show so much and the episodes of the new series have been incredibly funny and entertaining. 

Favourite Book:

Christmas For One by Amanda Prowse. I haven't actually finished this book but so far I've been loving it. At first, I didn't have very high expectations and I was only reading it because my sister told me to but it's actually been very good.

Favourite YouTube Channel:

Chewing Sand (Hazel Hayes). I've been watching Hazel for a while now and in the run up to Christmas she did a series called Collabmas which was such a good idea. My favourite of her Collabmas videos was the Festive Tag with Evan Edinger. (You can see her Channel here.)

Favourite YouTube video:

Festive Day in the Life of Dan and Phil. As you may know, Dan and Phil are my favourite YouTubers and their day in the life videos are amazing. There isn't anything I don't love about them. (You can see their festive day here.)

Favourite Song:

Gravity by Sara Bareilles. At first I found this song quite boring but now I won't listen to anything else. 

Random Favourites:

Looking at Christmassy things on Pinterest.

Little Shop of Horrors at the Royal Exchange. On Christmas eve I went to the theatre with my family and it was incredible. I love everything at the Royal Exchange but this play was definitely the best I've seen.

Eddie. About a week ago my family bought a puppy called Eddie and he's been an amazing edition to my month. I thought he deserved a mention because he's been a very good part life recently.

So this has been my December favourites. (It's actually no longer boxing day as I didn't have chance yesterday to finish writing.) Comment below some of your favourites from this month, that's all for now. Hope to see you next time, bye.

Fifteen Festive Favourites

I was tagged, along with the rest of the Beau Bloggers, by the wonderful Lou's World (who you can see here) to do the Fifteen Festive Favourites tag. 

What is your favourite:

November favourites

So the month of December had finally begun and after what was quite a horrible November, I couldn't be more excited. To say a final farewell to November I, of course, must tell you my favourites of the month.

Favourite Film:

Mockingjay Part one. In late November I went to the midnight screening of Mockingjay where they showed all three films and it was amazing. Catching Fire is still my favourite of the first three but I have been waiting for this film for so long and I'm so excited it's here.

Favourite TV show:

Video Game High School. I must admit that I did watch all three season of VGHS in a day and then had to look on YouTube for any behind the scenes. It was one of those shows that I felt like I shouldn't like but then I started watching and couldn't stop.

Favourite Book:

Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell. I read this book in late October going into November so I think that it's alright to be included here. I absolutely loved Fangirl and read it a lot faster than I had imagined. The characters and story were so easy to relate to, it was funny and I'd definitely recommend it.

Favourite YouTube channel:

Tomska. I have only started watching Tom's videos recently and find that I don't want to laugh at most of what he does because I don't feel like I should find it funny but I really do. (You can see his channel here.)

Favourite YouTube video:

Philisnotonfire6. November brought round that time of the year for cat whiskers and a rather weird Q and A that was PINOF. I watch both Dan and Phil on YouTube but the videos where they're together are quite possibly my favourite thing ever. (You can see the video here and the bloopers video here.)

Favourite Song(s):
I just couldn't pick one song this month so I've gone for the top three I've been loving. 
1. Sam Smith- I'm not the only one
2. Carrie Hope Fletcher- The Way We Were
3. Taylor Swift- Blank Space

Random Favourites:

Songs from Musicals
Particularly Les Mis, Hairspray and Annie. 

Art Work
I have been doing a lot of art work for school in the past month and despite spilling ink on the favourite painting I did and getting nail varnish  all over one of the research pages, I've been really enjoying it.

The Beau Bloggers community
Late in November I joined a community on Google+ called Beau Bloggers. I've really loved seeing all the other members blogs and YouTube channels and sharing my own over there. 

This has been my November favourites and I just wanted to mention today that I'm sorry I don't have a schedule for my blog posts and I've maybe gone a week or so this month without writing one. Everything has been very busy and I share my laptop with the rest of my family who need it a lot too so I don't get chance to write as much as I would like. I did really want to take part in Blogmas but I knew that was a promise I couldn't keep. That's all for now. Hope to see you next time, Bye.

August Favourites

I've decided I'm going to start a monthly favourites so here we go with August: 

Favourite Film-
                            

Guardians of the Galaxy. You'll have heard a lot about this film and believe me, there is very good reason for that. I've seen it twice now and I'm really hoping to go again. In my opinion, this is the best Marvel film there is (and that's saying something).

The Summer Tag

I've been tagged by Lou from the wonderful blog Lou's world to do the summer tag. I decided to do this now because summer is nearly over and we can say goodbye with a tag. Honestly, I'm not sure I'll be able to answer some of these questions but here we go:

1. Favourite bronzer for summer?

1. Were you named after anyone?
     I was named after Erin from the TV show The Waltons
