q & a

 Thank you all for submitting questions to my q & a, I'm going to answer them now here:

 What inspires you in your daily life?

 That's such a good question! As I live in a city with millions of people, I usually find inspiration in the different styles and looks people go for. London Fashion Week was a great time to really see people's vibes, and I just think that it is so cool. 

What's something you'd change in the world if you could? 

I would most likely change poverty people are experiencing, also the wars going on in Ukraine and others around the world. I would also like to change the world so that men and women have the same rights in every country, but unfortunately I'm not sure if we'll ever reach that goal!

Do you have a favourite type of tree?

I love Christmas, so I'll go for a fir tree. I do love Oak trees as well.

What are your top four favourite films?

Harry Potter (all of the movies), Muppet's Christmas Carol, Legally Blonde, How To Lose A Guy in 12 Days and Ten Things I Hate About You. 

If you could be any celebrity for a day, who would you be and why?

Zoe Kravitz, and not just because she's dating Harry Styles (of course not...) but she lives such an interesting life being the daughter of the iconic Lenny Kravitz. She's also best friends with Taylor Swift and she seems like such a cool person. 

How can I dress 2000s style using basic clothes?

Focus on a base and use Pinterest as a way of organising outfits. I'd also recommend going through your clothes and recognising which ones are worthy to add to outfits. Hollister and Urban are the best places to go to for basic, cheap-ish clothes that still look vintage!

How to make fall more vibes?

Buy candles, wrap yourself in coats, drink Pumpkin spice lattes and listen to autumn playlists is all I can really say! 

Bye angels.

sense and sensibility

 I've just returned home from watching the new adaptation of Sense and Sensibility, and I knew I would enjoy it being a Jane Austen lover and hopeless romantic. The Guardian newspaper rated this movie three stars, and upon seeing this review, I suddenly questioned going. I love the original adaptation of this novel, mostly because it depicts sisterhood, girlhood and romance in a jolly, light-hearted way.  

Now that I've seen the movie, I would say that the director, Georgia Oakley, watched the 90s adaptation and decided to do the complete opposite - and I don't mean this as an insult. The movie itself was a lot more dark and gloomy. The hues of the screen tended to be blue and grey. The bad weather reflected the down-hearted moods of the sisters after leaving Norwood and residing in a small, coastal cottage. 

The Guardian claimed that the casting was the main issue, but I actually think that the casting was what made this new movie so perfect. Daisy Edgar Jones as Eleanor was almost a match in heaven - she portrayed Eleanor perfectly, and even before watching the film I knew she would be good. Esme Creed Miles, who I had not heard of before this film, played Marianne very well too. 

The Guardian mostly criticised the looks of Edward Ferrars and Willoughby, and I can sort of understand their point. It is quite a high standard already set with Hugh Grant and Greg Wise playing those two gentleman in the world-known adaptation years before. Frank Dillane played Willoughby fine in this movie. It wasn't anything too special, but it wasn't bad either. George McKay as Edward wasn't problematic for me, either. 

In conclusion, it was a super good movie, and I would recommend seeing it - although I think the 1995 adaptation will always be my favourite ! 

cinema

 It's been a small amount of time since I've posted, mostly because I've been absolutely swamped in schoolwork. I have so much to do tonight, but I am procrastinating, and instead typing on this blog rather than solving the value of x. 

As you can see, I've changed up my blog. I really like the new look, especially the puffy tabs - but my lord, I forgot how tricky the coding on this website can be ! I was actually ill the other day and stayed in bed, and that is when I spent most my time changing things on here. I've also added a recipe on my recipes page. 

Not much has really happened, though. This weekend, the new Sense and Sensibility movie is released in cinemas, along with Bad Apple featuring my favourite actress - Saoirse Ronan. I am seeing both in one day - I know, two cinema trips in one day probably isn't great for my health - but cinemas is another one of those experiences that have just been forgotten about !

My mother was recalling to me a lot of memories spent with friends and family at the cinema. She saw the first Jaws movie when it came out, and apparently the theatre was completely packed out ! A lot of people still go to the cinema, but there are no longer queues forming outside of the building, and tickets are usually able to purchase 24/7. 

When I went to a special IMAX cinema to see the Odyssey, I was blown away by the amount of people who were there - that was my first movie that was fully packed out. 

Bye Angels ! 

angels,

I'm going to do a Q & A soon , so please do ask me questions you'd like to know ! 

angels,

 Thank you so much for all the comments on my last post, it has been really interesting to read your thoughts. For some reason, there's a slight bug in that I'm unable to reply to any comments, but I have loved to read your personal experiences with the evil side of social media. 

I've officially begun my two month period where I'm completely off social media. No TikTok and Instagram. I've been questioning over whether YouTube is a social media platform, and I've decided that for me personally, it's not. I don't watch YouTube shorts, I only watch video essays and with school and work I won't get time to watch many anyway. 

After I've finished my two month break offline, I'm going to write an essay or at least a long piece about my experiences. Maybe even a video essay myself ! 

But back to the topic: I was now thinking more about this topic of consumerism, and I decided to watch some YouTube videos on it. Not only is the lack of independence such an issue, but as a society we've lost the ability to think critically. Movies are 'dumb' now. They feed the audience the parts of the plot that require thinking time. We get told who's the bad guy, who's the good guy, when I find the most fun part of a movie is discussing it afterward and working out who's the villain. 

The same goes for books. Colleen Hoover, Freida McFadden and Ana Huang are amongst the most popular authors for teenagers to young adults recently. I have no hate toward these authors at all, but their books (I've read five) are all fast-paced. You know things quickly. You don't have to stop and question why. It is because as a society, we don't care about critical thinking any more. 

It is why we're in such a harsh literary crisis. 

There's also the question of who we can blame apart from ourselves. Can we blame the phones? The devices that hold the social media, that we call addicting? Can we blame the evil tech companies who code algorithms to keep us engaged? Or can we blame no one but ourselves for giving into the trickery, and is it too late? 

How can we fight back? I ask myself this quite often. I think it is true, people are starting to take notice of how bad AI and social media is. How amazing life is offline. When you're not worrying about how many views your post has. 

Many people above the age of 21 are starting to delete social media such as Snapchat as they enter adulthood. 

The UK are introducing an Under 16 Social Media Ban, which Australia originally put in place a while back. However, I don't believe it'll work. The teens won't be suddenly back to acting how we used to before it was all about social media. They'll be feral animals, trying to find loopholes in the systems. We all remember when the US banned TikTok for a day, and even then influencers were so desperate to post that they found ways around the ban. 

The only way we can fight back now is by deleting social media once and for all. Just fight back for yourself. 

Anyway, those are my thoughts! 

I've also been inspired to start my own magazine. I'm going to start by making one issue, and selling it for free. I'll find a way for you guys to be able to purchase (£0.00) on here, and the issue will likely be a digital PDF you can download. I'm just experimenting for now. 

Bye Angels !

angels,

 I've already written about this before, but I'm going to go into more detail this time. Social media is ruining our lives, in yet more ways. People are buying into consumerism just because an influencer or celebrity posts them doing something. Do we all remember that video Hailey Bieber posted where she eats sushi in a face mask, and suddenly it became a huge trend? 

The reason I'm writing this is because earlier I was talking to my mum about what career path I want to take, and if you've been following for a while, you will know that my dream is to become a journalist in fashion media. It used to be pretty easy to pump your writing into the world, via blogs, articles, publications... physical media that the public actually read. The only real way to get your business (in my case, writing) out into the world in this age is by starting a social media account, and entering the influencer world, which means engaging in trends that change by the minute. 

I suppose I've only been on social media for the past 5-6 years. I'm not sure whether it was different pre-Covid, but I feel that everyone started TikTok/Instagram/YouTube accounts whilst stuck at home. This was at least the time for prime YouTube, where it was almost easy to post a video and receive many views. Then TikTok launched and soared in popularity. Scrolling became the new hobby for most teenagers and adults, and now we enter this age of influencing as an occupation? 

This is why we need to bring back physical media. This is why it is so important to teach the younger generation to find interest in art. To explore literature, and plays, and films, and artworks that question our society. We want to be different and interesting - and copying people who dance (if you call it that, more waving your hands with zero energy, an insult to actual dance) or eat sushi with a face mask on merely shows how as a society we are being hypnotised. 

Another question is over whether social media is also influencing racism and sexism. Perhaps feminism is being affected by 'trad' wives who post videos presenting their ideal life - the reason for the sudden book hit, 'Yesteryear' - which I read not long ago (it is not worth the hype). 

I'm not sure what I'm trying to get out of this post, but I would like to hear your guys' views, if you got this far ! 

bye angels !!

angels,

 Happy London Fashion Week ! Already, I've seen so many fashion divas walking around Central London, and I am so jealous of the girlies who are going to a runway show. I have my birthday celebration today - I'm just going to have dinner with some friends and cake afterwards.

Bye Angels !

angels,

 Good morning, divas ! I don't really have much news, but I'll tell you about my day yesterday. First of all, there's an opportunity to go to a fair advertising universities you may be interested in applying to in the USA. I would absolutely love to study there, as I've been to the USA quite a few times. I'm not crazy smart, especially with numbers, but I'd say I'm good at English, and I would really like to become a journalist in fashion media. Georgetown University is an option. I've visited Georgetown two times before, and I would love to go again, but it is quite a journey from the UK.

Oh ! I bagged the Harry Styles tickets. I didn't manage to get standing tickets, even though it was in blue, but I still managed to get some pretty good seats. It'll be interesting to see the show from a different angle. Last time, I was 50,000 in the queue, and 120,000 in another. This time, I was 27,000 and 29,000 in the queues, so I feel a bit of justice this time round anyway. 

The mornings are so dark now ! I write this before I leave for school at 6:30AM (commuting takes such a long time), and it is pitch black. And cold, so I wrap up in a coat before having to carry it later on, because the temperature somehow soars to 26 degrees celsius. 

A lot of people have this stereo-type of the UK raining and it is cold all the time. And yes, in January - May, you are right. It does rain all the time. It is definitely not cold all the time. And besides, it's not cold if you compare it to a winter in New York, or Canada even ! This summer was horribly hot. 40 degrees celsius was the highest peak it reached. And the Piccadilly Line (a tube line in London) has no air-con, so my commute to school was even worse. Now it's better. 

Bye Angels !

angels ,

 I got a new notebook for my birthday , which is perfect because I am beginning to run out of space on my current one. I don't think I've talked about this before, but I bring a notebook with me everywhere. On the train, on the bus, at home, on holiday... it's a way for me to write down my personal thoughts and feelings, but also poetry and story ideas . I like to call it a journal, or a diary, but in reality it's a bit of everything. 

I need ideas what to write about - I'm in a current phase of writers block which sucks because I miss being able to write hours on end! 

BYE ANGELS !

angels ,

Today is my birthday ! I got so many gifts from friends and family, I'm so grateful, I even got a Vogue subscription, which I'm so excited for because I am obsessed with Vogue. I'll post later with the events of the day because today is the dreaded Harry Styles ticket war. Wish me luck ! 

Bye angels. 

angels ,

Today in Drama class, we learnt about Metamorphosis and Franz Kafka, and his views and ideas really stuck with me. He questioned why we, as a society, do things that we're told to do. We're always being told my governments and higher powers to do this, do that, make sure this is in on time... but why do we need to do these things? We're never told why. 

It was just a thought. Now Metamorphosis is on my booklist and we're doing a play of it! 

Bye divas !

angels ,

Soon I will be updating this blog for the Autumn/Winter months, and I'm so excited ! I have really loved this summer 2000s vibe so far, but as the nights are getting darker, days are getting colder and I find myself wearing a coat to school, it is time. 

I plan to keep everything the same. The GIFS, the notebook posts, the fonts... but I will be changing the background, the logo and the falling stars to a different colour combination. I'm not sure whether to go for a red or a brown. I'll insert the background ideas here:

 

On one hand, the sparkly red is very much giving Christmas but also jumpy kind of vibes. But then I look at the darker brownish one and it is giving more of a relaxed feel - which is what I want for my blog. I started this blog after seeing blogs becoming more of a trend online. But now that I've gained 45 followers and I've had over 100 views on my blog, it feels that more of my goal is to be a safe space for my readers. 

Which is why along with this update will be a new page: the confessions page. These will be anonymous, but where you can fill in your confessions and I'll discreetly return with advice. This construction should be done over the next few days, so bear with me if the blog looks a bit bad for a while !

BYE ANGELS !

consumerism

angels ,

 Can anyone who has visited the pink wall in LA tell me what is so special about it? I keep coming across videos of people taking photos against it, and is that all it is? A background for photos to show off to your friends? It is so ironic that the bins in this parking lot are full of Starbucks 'Unicorn Frappe' drinks. It is the illustration of consumerism. And they complain about the song, 'Ain't In LA', saying that Adela is saying people from LA are all the same. 

I just personally don't understand visiting such an iconic place with lots of other things to offer, but to just drive to a painted pink wall (you could probably find one locally) and take photos pretending it's 2016?? It makes me a bit sad, if I'm honest. It's another example of how social media and influence has destroyed our lives. The Unicorn Frappe, which my friend forced me to try, is disgusting. Be so for real, no one actually finished that drink. The bins on this lot, as I mentioned before, saw many Unicorn Frappes that hadn't been drank - and obviously purchased just for the photos.

The pink wall in LA sits in a parking lot. It isn't even in an iconic area. 

Anyway, that was just my thought of the day.

cinema review

Angels ,

Today I saw 'Pressure' - a film following James Stagg, a Scottish meteorologist who was chosen to predict the weather for June 5th, and famously persuaded Dwight D. Eisenhower to delay the D-Day invasion. I would rate the move a solid 7/10. It was enjoyable, interesting and slightly cheesy, but not so much that it made me cringe (which most movies do). 

Stagg is a genius, and well-known around the country for his expertise. Irving Krick is an American meteorologist who has predicted weather in North Africa and America, but never in Europe before. Krick uses historic logs of weather to predict the future weather, which he calls is completely sunny and perfect conditions for an invasion.

Stagg, however, disagrees.

He finds storms heading to France, which would ruin the whole attack. Eisenhower and his team laugh at Stagg's proposal to delay D-Day until the 18th of June. After countless arguments and eternal persuasion, Stagg finally gets Eisenhower to delay the attack. Meanwhile, Stagg finds out his wife is missing. 

Bye, Divas ! 

ANGELS ,

Does anyone else agree that this week has been the longest week ever? I'm absolutely exhausted from the week, and so I'm taking this weekend to relax and be 'lazy'. 

I think that a lot of people take the word 'lazy' as scroll on your phone, lie in bed all day, watch TV and don't answer the door. For me, a lazy weekend is just taking things slowly, but still going out, cooking food etc... So today I'm going to see a movie and walk around central London. 

This seems like the opposite of a 'lazy' task, but to me this is a break. I'm always rushing around to get to different places, and so just slowing down and walking when there's no end-goal is super relaxing to me.

Also - my birthday is next week?! It feels like this year has gone by so quickly. It feels crazy. I'm nervous for my birthday because that is the day the dreaded Harry Styles presale happens, and I am going to get tickets. Whether they're nosebleeds or VIP packages, we need to see him again!!! 

Tears for Fears is opening, (Everybody Wants To Rule The World, Head Over Heels, etc.) which is crazy because they're my Dad's favourite band. 

Bye Divas X

 Today marks 25 years since the tragic attacks in New York City to the World Trade Centre on the 11th of September, 2001. I thought I would post something in honour of the innocent lives that were taken during this event - many of which were lost in order to save others. 

The North Tower was attacked at 8:46am, and the South Tower at 9:03am. Many only had the option of burning, jumping or passing out from the smoke. 

344 lives from the New York City Fire Department were lost, along with 2,977 citizen deaths in total.

It is important to honour the victims, families and witnesses of this tragic event, which should - and will - never be forgotten. 

Bye , Angels X

Good Evening, Angels X

If anyone knows me, they know I love Harry Styles. Not just love. I have posters on my wall, I can name every song 0.5 seconds in, and I know what blood type he has. So, I would call myself a fan. And just because I'm disappointed about one aspect doesn't make me not a fan. I feel every time I mention this my fellow Harry fan friends are like, 'Oh my god, you're such a fake fan!' Being fan doesn't mean agreeing and loving everything that your idol does. You can be frustrated about some things as well. So here it is:

Tired From Saying Yes All Day Harry Styles GIFfrom Tired From Saying Yes All Day GIFs

Harry Styles announced his 2027 Together, Together tour yesterday, and I was overjoyed. I am still overjoyed at the thought of seeing Harry again. What makes me slightly annoyed is the fact that no dynamic pricing will be used this time round. In February, when Harry's tickets for the first round of Together, Together went out, it was dynamic pricing. Some seats would be £80, whereas the ones right next to it would be £120. This was because of the different views, whether they were obstructed etc. 

Larry Stylinson Fetus Larry GIFfrom Larry Stylinson GIFs

This tour, there are set prices per seating area. This is annoying because many fans couldn't go last tour due to the high dynamic pricing. The standing tickets were tricky to almost impossible to bag, and the only affordable to the majority were the nosebleeds, which went for about £90 - £100. The average worker would obviously not be able to pay for these. 

I will not disclose how much was spent on my last Harry Styles concert, but enough to make everyone who I have told audibly gasp. By the time I entered the website, the only tickets left went for about £300 - £400. There were no nosebleeds left, no standing left, only the VIP packages and the extremely expensive tickets. So now Harry isn't using dynamic pricing and he is handing out a selection of £20 tickets, it's frustrating that the money I spent before on those seats for the same show coming to Wembley again for 2027 will be cheaper.

Oh well! Anything for Harry. X

reading

 I want to write about this because it was something I found striking during my English Lit class today. I was amongst eleven out of my class of thirty who was currently reading a book. And in a survey my school posted, only 36% of my school were frequent readers. That's just crazy to me.

Lendo Rory GIFfrom Lendo GIFs

Reading shouldn't be a chore. It should be for pleasure. Not just a way to build fundamental growth, but a way to dive into different realms and imagine things for yourself. You can design characters in your head, map out the different scenes and just really immerse yourself in the words. 

I genuinely think you're not cool if you're against reading. There's a girl in my class who was making fun of us eleven who read, when in reality it's just sad if you're spending your time doomscrolling on TikTok when you could be reading. I won't be mean and assume she spends her time doomscrolling, but she sure doesn't possess much political opinions or debatability on certain ideas.

It is wrong to call someone politically unaware, because a lot of the time people don't form ideas on events mostly because they don't want to think about it. Maybe because they have family involved, or they themselves have some sort of personal connection to the affair - or it could just be that they don't want to think about wars and famine and corrupt governments. 

Natearchibald Fast Reading GIFfrom Natearchibald GIFs

I just personally love creating booklists, talking about books, writing reports on books and getting cosy in my bed with a good book. If people don't read, society dies. Society is unable to flourish if everyone is being influenced by social media. 

It makes me really sad, this literary crisis we are facing. Some of my fondest memories are getting stuck in some really gripping books.

Little Women is one of my favourite books, and it pretty easy going. It is definitely one of the easier classics, so if you are reading this blog post and thinking 'Geez, I haven't read in ages!' go and buy a copy of Little Women, put your phone on Do Not Disturb, place it in another room and read.

make-up routine

Morning Angels,

 I thought I would show you my make-up routine for this morning's post. 

                

I usually use Nars concealer, but recently my one ran out and I can't exactly afford a new one on top of everything else just yet. I also don't always do this routine - this is if I want to do a full face. I usually just do concealer and mascara if I want to go natural. 

I also use eyebrow glue, but I couldn't find a good photo for it. 

I'll post later, angels.

BYE DIVAS!!

reflection

 Hello angels ,

Why was today okay? Like, I was expecting to be super tired, but tell me why I came home and actually did my homework without any procrastination?? Today was actually a good day - I had quite boring lessons but I like where I'm sitting in all the different lessons, so it's chill. 

Harry Styles Fetus Harry GIFfrom Harry Styles GIFs

If you follow me, you will know that I love One Direction, especially Harry Styles - and recently Harry posted a pop-up on his website where you put in your address and he sends a letter ! Some fans have already received them. I have not yet, but I'm so excited to! 

Posters from him have been appearing in cities such as Berlin, Madrid, Toronto and London with the date '10.09.26'. I'm so excited, that's in two days. And you know what that means? A 2027 tour. I was freaking out that he wasn't going to do London, but thank the lord - posters finally appeared in London. 

Tonight I'm going to have pesto pasta for dinner. OMG I need to talk about lunch for a second. We queued 40 minutes at school to get in, and then we had two minutes before our lessons started, so the staff suggested we pick up one of the sandwiches or very quick meals, so that we can eat during class, but they looked so dry !! I'm so mad, and I'm praying tomorrow will be better.

My hair looks terrible from the rain.

BYE DIVAS !!!!

first day

 Good morning, divas,

I had a much better sleep today, so much that I found it difficult to roll myself out of bed and get dressed. Today is my first full day back at school. I think what made yesterday so tiring was the fact that it didn't really have any structure, and we were being sociable with one another at every point in the day. 

Gilmore Clube Rory Gilmore GIFfrom Gilmore Clube GIFs

Today I have Art, German, French and Latin. I'm not looking forward to Latin. I hate Latin. I'm super happy I'm being driven to school and picked up, that almost never happens and I have to make my way home via public transport. Ew. 

I had a thought last night I wanted to write about, but it has completely slipped my mind. I'll remember it later. 

bye divas !

first day of school

divas, 

 I am so very tired, and it is only 8PM. I've decided I'm going to read a book in bed and fall asleep around 9PM, because I am so done with talking to people and bothering with anything. It is probably best I hibernate in my bedroom. But let's talk about my first day back at school.

Rory Gilmore GIFfrom Rory GIFs

I forgot how draining school can be. I'm sure it is because I became accustomed to the silence of my bedroom over the summer, and the soft clinking of mugs and the steaming of a coffee machine at my local cafe. I didn't even talk to many people. I was social with my friend group, caught up with a few friends but I wasn't talking that much. 

The first thing I was told as I walked into the school was 'roll down your skirt', and later I received a behaviour point for my shoes. I wasn't even an hour back, and I had already mucked up. Oh well.

My anxiety spiked the most when we went around the classroom and had to say something about ourselves. I was already feeling so anxious about being back at school, and I was scared people were laughing or judging me (they weren't), but it was even worse when I sat in silence whilst everyone was waiting for me to say something! I ended up saying I like playing guitar or something very simple. 

Sleepy Tired GIFfrom Sleepy GIFs

The fact that it was only a half-day and I felt that drained is kind of scary. Once we were dismissed, my friend and I hopped on the train to go to Covent Garden where we had plans to sit in this quite cool cafe. We didn't take the lift and walked up 197 stairs to the top, and we then realised how tired and drained we were, so we had some lunch and went back home. 

On a good note, next week is my birthday. I quite enjoy knowing I'm the oldest in my class, mostly because it makes me feel more mature than everyone else - which I so am. Some people are so emotionally unintelligent it sometimes scares me.

I have to go back tomorrow, wake up at 5:15AM and do the same all over again. I hope I get used to it, otherwise this year will be tough. My brain feels really overwhelmed at the moment, so I might let it relax by not going on screens for the rest of the evening !!

Good evening divas, and good luck to anyone else who went to school.

Good Morning Angels,

 Turns out I do have time this morning to write about school later today. I had such a bad sleep. I couldn't fall asleep for hours, and at one point I got seriously overheated and I went to the guest bedroom to sleep there instead, before returning back to my bedroom before I had to wake up. 

H2di Squidward Sleeping GIFfrom H2di GIFs

The time is currently 5:55AM, and I am now ready. I did a full skincare routine and my make-up is completed as well. As for my hair? I'm not sure. I like it down, but I look better if it's up. I am so happy to have my iced latte with me as well. 

I actually think I might be alright this morning.  This morning I'm going to visit my Grandma on the way to school, which means I can get some really nice breakfast. Then, I'll have to enter the school. Sorry, I meant the prison. 

bye divas (not in caps because I'm not feeling it this morning)

ANGELS X

Divas,

 I just had an everything shower in preparation for tomorrow. I'll likely post in the evening about my first day back at school, but I am dreading it. At least my legs feel super smooth and I smell like a coconut. But oh my days, I can't believe we're back to school already.

Slvttyspears Harry GIFfrom Slvttyspears GIFs

I have my morning routine all planned out: 

- Wake up at 5:15.

- Get into my itchy school uniform and put on some under-eye patches. 

- Make a morning coffee with vanilla syrup. 

- Skincare + Make-up + Hair

- Pack bag, brush teeth, put on coat.

- Leave the house.

I've already had my annual breakdown I have before the first day of every term, but now I just feel nervous. But anyway, wish me luck.

Divas,

 Update : We didn't go to the city (which would've been Cambridge) to pick up the AirPods, because we arrived at the station and tell my why the train tickets would've cost more than a new pair of AirPods? So then I was like... should I just buy some new ones?

I took this as an opportunity to upgrade to some noise-cancelling ones, and I was also close to buying a new paper-white kindle because mine is on its last legs, but I decided against it once I saw the price. It's always a gamble when my kindle runs out of battery whether it will turn back on or not, because it has survived many incidents involving water, being dropped down an airplane seat and dropped on hard floor multiple times. 

I'm slightly having a little moment because school is tomorrow, and I hate school. But I'm trying to distract my annoying thoughts by blogging and thinking about Christmas.

Good Morning Divas ,

Today I am travelling on the train to another city in order to collect my AirPods which I left in a college dorm a month ago. I cannot wait to see my AirPods again, I'm so excited. I woke up super early this morning because tomorrow is school and I plan to wake up at 5:15 tomorrow which will be a huge shock.

Monkey Listening To Music

I know it isn't Christmas, but I keep listening to Christmas music and I can't stop. It's not that long until Christmas. I feel like 2026 has gone by so quickly. It hasn't been a bad year, but it's just been quite irrelevant and I feel I haven't done much this year. I certainly won't miss this year.

I did some pretty cool stuff, though. I saw Harry Styles, I saw Bruno Mars, I went to the Capital Summertime Ball and I had a good end to the school year, but my summer wasn't great. It was okay. But I'm hoping next summer will be better. I don't really like summer anyway.

I only begin living at Christmas.

 I feel like every One Direction girl had a very important choice: which of the boys would you claim yours, and write fanfics and fangirl about? For me, it's always been Harry. I don't know what spoke to me about him, but I'd never go back on my choice. In second place, I would say Niall. But together, Narry Storan (if you know, you know) makes my heart explode, I love them so much.

I don't really know the point of posting this quick thought, but I was just listening to Niall Horan's new album, Dinner Party, which I love. I might go for a walk soon, I love walking. Especially evening ones, because I just focus on myself and my music, and everything is silent and perfect.

I've always been the person who finds pleasure in being alone. Don't get me wrong, I love having friends, and I love going out and having fun, but I don't mind sitting alone time to time. I have the ability to sit for hours in a cafe just minding my own business. I hope that isn't a sign of childhood trauma or anything.

Oh my gosh, four followers! I want to quickly thank everyone who followed and sent links, you all are so kind and creative with your blogs, so thank you so much for following. 

Stranger Things Netflix Show GIFfrom Stranger Things GIFs

About the musical last night. It was Stranger Things: The Final Shadow. It seemed to be a prequel to the huge Stranger Things series, and my friend told me that it was actually created after the fourth series, when Stranger Things really took off. The show opened with a video of newspaper clippings, before the curtain opened revealing a ship. I was slightly confused as to what was happening, but I think I got the general concept - the boat was trying to carry out an experiment where the ship would become invisible, but instead they accidentally turned into the Upside Down (a universe which has many supernatural creatures). 

We then meet Henry Creel and follow him into his first day at a new school, after some sort of event caused his family to move from Nevada, the reason was later revealed. We also meet Joyce, a younger version from her actual character in the series. This is where the first floor in the plot happens: later in the play, Joyce finds out what is happening to the pets who Henry Creel has killed. She find out it is supernatural powers, but this led me to think - if she was so upset and terrified when her son went missing and she was being provoked by a supernatural creature in the series, then surely she wouldn't have been as scared if she knew people like Henry Creel existed? 

I don't want to yap too much about the play, but it was insanely good. Especially the special effects, which were super advanced. It made me wonder how if you go to a normal play held in a smaller theatre, the special effects are cool, but then you go to a West End production and see some pretty advanced stuff. I remember going to see Frozen a while back, and Elsa's ice castle was crazy. It looked like the actual one. 

To finish, guys, I'm going to thank you once again - and please do follow if you haven't already !!

Today is my best friend's birthday, and I'm so excited to see a musical. I'm obsessed with musicals, my favourite either being Grease or Matilda. I love acting, and I used to do it all the time but unfortunately life got in the way and I haven't performed as much as I used to.

In the past few days, people have been visiting my blog and commenting, so I just want to quickly say how grateful I am to be having this opportunity ! Feel free to paste the link to your blogs and I'll take a look (I'm obsessed with blog searching). 

I've also gained my first follower, which feels like a huge achievement, so thank you so much. I'll write about the musical later. But for now,

 Good Morning , Divas !!!

Today, I'm not doing much. I will walk around and sit in Gails coffee, and then come home and continue refurbishing my bedroom. I'm not doing much, but I have taken down all my posters (it is officially the end of an era) and I've purchased some furniture units to make my room a bit more... full. It's a bit of a shock seeing my wall that was once covered in posters now empty. It makes my room feel very big, but the posters were just not me anymore. 

I got those posters two years ago, and I feel now I want my room to be more simplistic, but in a way that reflects my personality. I want my room to be a place I enjoy to lie in, and at the moment it is. It wasn't before, A - because of the heat, and B - because of the mess. Maybe I'll take a photo and post my bedroom here once it is finished, but it's not quite done yet.

I have ordered two prints of Vogue posters for the wall which will come framed, and I feel that's a lot more elegant. Talking of Vogue, don't we just love the recent issue? The issue I really enjoyed was the one with Daisy-Edgar Jones on the cover. I'm actually so excited for the new Sense and Sensibility movie to come out.

Ever since I can remember, I have been reading and watching Jane Austen novels and movies. I love the kind of romance where the man is genuinely smitten and my favourite has to be Persuasion. It does have a downside - my standards are extremely high, especially as I am also a romance movie lover.

I'll post later, divas... I hope to finish a book soon so I will post a review.

 I'm back from my shopping trip, and I need to quickly rant. I bought the Michael Jackson Bad vinyl for my collection, as I already have Thriller, and I'm trying to grow my vinyl collection as much as possible. I am so tired from walking around, and something extremely disgusting happened on my way home.

I was standing on the platform with my earphones in, minding my own business. The train was due to arrive in one minute, and so I stand up and walk down the platform in order to get a seat on the train. I'm standing on the platform, and in the corner of my eye I noticed a man walking towards me - but I thought he was walking in order to walk down the platform as well. 

The closer he got, the more I started to see him looking at me, and for some reason I didn't move, mostly because I was kind of shocked that he was coming towards me - mainly because I was fully covered today in a baggy coat and baggy trousers. So it was weird. And I didn't really notice until he was extremely close to me.

And then he did something I do not want to talk about on this blog, and I walked away quickly down the platform and noticed him following me !!! 

So then I get on the train and sit down on a duo seat and place my bag on the other seat so he can't sit next to me, but tell me why he walks toward me and stands extremely close and did what he did on the platform (which was gross, I think you get an idea). 

Then this woman opposite me who was with her daughter said 'Leave her alone' (#diva), and he suddenly turns around then runs down the train - obviously a bit troubled seeming as his eyes were darting everywhere. 

What made this scenario so scary was the fact I was wearing a coat. The only skin you could see was my face. I was completely covered up. Anyway, divas... this is the reality of travelling alone in London as a woman... Stay safe out there !!!

 Good morning !! 

Today I'm meeting some friends to go shopping, and I'm obsessed with my outfit today. I'm wearing a pink Amara top from Brandy Melville, BDG baggy jeans and a pea-coat to make my outfit look all autumnal. It looks like it's going to rain today (isn't it always), so I'll bring an umbrella. I'm hoping to go into Hollister to find some clothes, but also I'm looking for a birthday gift for my best friend. 

I'd love to see some of your blogs, please post them in the chat box so I can see !!!

Bye, Angels X

It's nearly my birthday ! I'm getting my nails done tomorrow in preparation for both my birthday and the first day of school (oh my gosh, stop don't remind me). Talking about school, I did some shopping today and purchased my favourite pens in the whole world along with doing some online ordering - tell me why stationary shopping is so so so expensive.
