So I’m not quite sure where to start with this, it’s been about a month since I last posted a Sunday Thoughts, which was at the beginning of October and now it’s November, I haven’t been as active with my blog as I’ve had course work to do and I’ve been really tired and just full on busy, i’ve had a week off from college and for the majority of it I’ve been doing my English Literature and English Language course work, which is now out of the way and done thank god. And the other part of my week I’ve been watching Netflix. 

I started watching American Horror Story and can I just say it is amazing! I’ve never seen another show like It it’s so weird and quite creepy and just plain old odd, but I still love it, I’m currently on season 2. Also about TV programs I’ve been watching The Vampire diaries and after the last season with all the doppelganger stuff I started to go right off vampire diaries but this new season is so much better than the last and I hope it continues going the way it is.

Also it was Halloween on Friday and even though I didn’t do anything part from watch tv I did get into the Halloween spirit through the day by watching supernatural and American Horror story, wasn’t as much horror but defiantly death and gore was involved of course with the side of supernatural beings it felt right to watch them.

Also on Friday my parents brought home some sparklers and my dad and I messed around with the camera and the sparklers and here are a few of the best photos that we took. It was really fun and quite weird but it was definitely worth it we also had some Halloween sparklers, which were basically sparklers shaped like Halloween related things, there was a pumpkin, ghost and a witches hat.

College has been good apart from the obvious coursework and work levels being raised along with having little time to relax, I met some new people again which was cool and we hung out outside the college one day and it turns out as I was getting the metro into town one of the boys I had met earlier the day he was getting on the same metro with some of his friends and we talked and had a laugh, was kind of weird, I’m not used to people talking to me as much especially since they were my friends friends. 

I’m not really sure what else to talk about but I will say I can’t believe it’s November it’s almost Christmas and I’m dreading getting the metro when it gets really close to Christmas it’s going to be so packed, but I can’t wait for it to get to Christmas I’m kind of excited for the Christmas vibe to hit where everyone puts their decorations up and the Christmas films come on tv.

So that’s what’s been going on at the moment and I go back to college on Tuesday so once again I’ll try to post on a Saturday but of course there could be exceptions for if I get too busy.

The Halloween Tag

So since today is halloween i thought i would do a post that is related to halloween so i went on google and i found this Halloween tag so here is my answers to it. 

1)What’s your favourite horror movie?

I haven’t really watched many horrors but the woman in black is my favourite it’s very jumpy and much more of a thriller than a horror, which I prefer more.

2) If you were in a horror movie, how far do you think you would get? (Five minutes, halfway, all the way to the end credits…?)

I would like to think I would last until the end, but in reality I’d probably only last until around half way maybe less, I’d probably do something really stupid that would make me die I would basically trip over and fall into the killers knife or something (basically my clumsiness would kill me.)

3) Favourite scary video game?

I haven’t played any, so I’m not sure, I’d rather watch the youtube videos of other people playing them, make them suffer the heart attack haha.

4) Favourite scary story?

My favourite scary story has the be the typical china doll story, which was one of the first ones I heard in middle school, thinking back on it now it scared everyone and if you had a china doll in your room you got rid of it because of the story, pretty stupid and it’s pretty funny looking back on it now.

5) What’s one unusual thing that you’re afraid of?

My fears are pretty normal spiders, bugs, insects, but It’s not as much as a fear more paranoid when I hear a noise in the house or if I see a shadow like a normal one like out of the corner of my eye I get paranoid thinking it’s someone or something but that’s usually on a night time and if I’m alone in the house.

6) What’s your first memory of Halloween?

I remember when I was around 5 or 6 I think, I went trick or treating around my estate with my friend and I remember it was one of the first times I can remember and it was fun and I got loads of sweets and I remember this elderly woman who lived a few doors down and she gave us money and basically at the time I think I got about £1.40 but of course being young I thought it was a lot and it was the best thing ever apparently.

7) What’s your favourite Halloween memory?

My favourite memory is of when I was in florida for Halloween with my best friend at the time and we stayed for two weeks and on the Halloween night we went to Disney world and we did the ‘mickey’s not so scary Halloween’ thing and we went around the park dressed up (we were 8) and I was like a Frankenstein’s bride and we went on the rides at Disney world and we met the characters, saw a parade, got sweets at each ride and it was really fun and by far my best Halloween memory.

8) Best Halloween costume you’ve had?

I’m not really sure on what my best costume was probably one when I was young so I’m going to go with when I was a vampire once, I mean there’s plenty of more outfits to come. 

9) Worst Halloween costume you’ve had?

My worst Halloween outfit was probably when I went as a like punk. Like I had blue and pink in my hair, black lipstick, dark make up, and an outfit but it was a rubbish costume and looking back on it, it wasn’t very punk like.

WHICH IS SCARIER:

10) Werewolves or vampires?

I’d say neither but I’m going to go with vampires I mean come on werewolves are only dangerous one night a month and yeah they have sharp teeth and can rip you to shreds, but vampires are dangerous everyday of the year and they have inhuman strength and speed, I mean have you seen buffy they’re dangerous.

11) Ghosts or zombies?

Probably ghosts I mean you can outrun zombies and a shot to the head and they’re dead. Ghosts they’re scarier I mean they can make things happen haunt you etc. I’d be much more scared of a ghost.

12) Creepy dolls or creepy clowns?

Creepy dolls I mean haven’t you seen Annabel, well I haven’t but that doll gives me the chills.

13) Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees, Michael Myers or Leatherface?

I’m not sure probably leatherface as he’s from chainsaw massacre and he was based of an actual murderer like who did kill people so probably him.

Happy Halloween guys, those were my answers to the Halloween Tag if you do the tag leave a comment below and i'll check it out i'd like to see some of your guys answers.

What's In My Bag / School Edition

So I've recently started college, well a few months ago and I'm shocked about how fast these last few weeks have gone and I've realised compared to my bag I used to take when I was in high school I have changed a lot of things and I carry so much more in my bag so my bag is from urban outfitters and is a backpack which cost me £10 in their sale and this is what I carry inside.

So I'm going to start with my notebook, I have this NU notebook which has split sections. I picked their notebook because I have 4 subjects and the book itself has 5 split sections and since I don't have a bit bag it's much easier to carry around instead of five separate books.

I also Carry 4 pens with me two are just simple plain pens whilst the other one is a one with four colours (it comes in handy with English lit for analysing the poems) I also harry one highlighter around (once again for English lit or to highlight key words in my notebook. I don't actually own a pencil case as I really don't like them especially when I carry my purse and make up bag I have no room so these tend to lie in the bottom of my bag.

Also in my bag I carry my make up bag which usually consists of a broken hair brush (I'm hoping by the end of the year to get a tangle teaser.) I carry some hand sanitiser which was from primark for 60p.i carry my real techniques powder brush, maybelline the falsies mascara my Rimmel stay matte powder and my maybelline baby lips intense car, collection cover up stick and the lipstick/ lipgloss I wear that day which this particular day I wore my topshop lipstick in the colour beguiled. Also in my makeup bag I carry painkillers and sometimes cold relief tablets. 

Since I'm travelling further to school I carry my purse which of course consists of money for my dinner and travel and a little bit of my own money in case I want to go into town after I finish on my early days.  i got this purse from newlook for £9.99. 

( i got the picture from Newlook website as i couldn't get a decent picture of the purse, sorry) 

I also carry my juice cube (from John Lewis it cost £25 if you were wondering) which is a charger for my phone and at the moment my phone battery I broken so my phone is dying by around lunch time. So I need to be able to charge it. Anyways you charge it like you would a phone and the cable it comes with you change the end to fit your device so at the moment the end for mine is for an iPhone 4s. This little thing is such a life saver, I recommend these if you travel around a lot or if your out all day and your phone doesn't keep a charge.

I also carry a bottle of water with me because I've found out recently that I drink a lot of water up at college so I have a 720 ml water bottle. 

I also carry an umbrella I case of any bad weather. I also carry my student ID in my bag so I make sure I have it there with me, I usually clip this onto the draw string around the top to make sure I know where it is and have it to easily access as I need it out as I carry my pop card (it's like an Oyster card for the train but the Newcastle version) and I use that to pay for my ticket on the train. 

And the final thing I carry in my bag is my iPad mini as there's some days I have massive breaks such as a Tuesday where I have two hours free, plus free wifi and I sometimes need to do homework or some research so it's quite handy to have or of course just to play games on whilst I'm on the metro.

So this was my what's in my school bag post I hope you enjoyed it and I'll post again shortly

The Blogger Tag

Last weekend I was looking through my bloglovin’ feed and i came across Chloe’s way’s blog and saw she had posted a new blog post, which was The Blogger Tag and I personally wasn’t tagged, but I thought it would be a nice post to do and especially since it’s easy to write and post especially with the very little time I have at the moment, anyway I’m going to stop rambling and get on with it so here is my answers to the Blogger Tag.

What is your favourite beauty product?

Oh god this is a hard one but recently a few months ago I bought a Kate Moss lipstick in the colour 30 and it’s my favourite thing at the moment I wear it all the time and it was quite cheap, if I remember correctly they’re around £5 maybe £6. I’m probably horribly wrong but I’m sure I paid around that much, anyways the lipsticks for the price are really nice quality for a drug store brand, quite moisturising and last

What is your all time favourite brand?

I’m going to go with Mac, for 3 years now I’ve been aware of them and owned at least one product and I love their stuff so much, I know it’s not the cheapest of stuff but it’s not overly expensive like Benefit which is a high end drugstore brand, plus their products are really good quality and last a long time.

Do you collect anything?

Candles! Okay so I have this desk and it has a small cupboard in it and I can say that it is full of candles, I have some candles from Ikea, which smell amazing I have about 5 of them, then I have 12 Yankee candles which are just small ones that you put in holders and then I have 3 bags of tea lights, I have an obsessions with candles and as I type I have one lit right now oops?

Early bird or night owl?

This is a tough one… it depends the majority of the time I am a night owl and will stay up really late, plus I get very productive at around midnight so I’m an night owl, but at the same time I can go to bed very late and will still get up at around half seven- eight am, but the majority of the time I get up later than that so I’m mainly a night owl.

Tea or coffee?

Tea, such a stereotype of British people huh? I’m joking I only recently realised I like tea and it’ not normal tea I like, I like flavoured tea, but hey tea is tea.

What I is your favourite tv show?

This is the hardest question by far I have too many to pick from it’s either got to be Teen Wolf or Supernatural I can’t choose, they’re both such good programs.

If you could travel to any era when would it be?

I think I’d go to the great Gatsby style era so around the 1920’s I think, I just think it would be cool the music the outfits the hair it just seemed like such a beautiful era to live through, the music is great too it would have been interesting.

So these were my answers to the Bloggers Tag , let me know if you decide to do this post or have done as I would like to see your answers!
