Summer Challenge: Spanish

Hola! 

Every summer, to keep me productive, I challenge myself to a new task or project to tackle. Last year saw the return of project learn the keyboard "properly" (still only know the beginning of 'how to save a life' and 'yellow') and the year before I attempted what could only be named 'stay awake for 24 hours and don't die in the process'. Both turned out to be utter failures, of course. However, this summer shall be different (fingers crossed), because this year I'm attempting something somewhat useful; I am going to learn Spanish, wahoo! (Que tremendous handclap). Using only the power of the Internet (and perhaps a 'Spanish for dummies' book) I shall hopefully be able to speak fluent Spanish. Haha only kidding, I'm just hoping I'll be able to at least say "I cannot speak Spanish" for any possible future travelling. 

Wish me luck and adios (*wink wink*)

A Slightly Late Birthday Haul

So having turned 17 on the 1st of June it never really occurred to me to post a birthday haul. But typically, being a fortnight later, I stumble upon the idea. Some may not be interested, but I thought I'd share anyway; something for me to look back on in the future, eh? 

As well as money towards the camera I'm saving for (FujiFilm X10) I received some lovely and thoughtful gifts. Including a gorgeous Back to the Future box set and one of my newly favourite films Premium Rush...

...Bath and body products including Soap&Glory hand cream and my favourite scent (passion fruit) body mist...

... An awesome golden snitch bracelet as well as beautiful jewellery and accessories from les amis...

...Disney princess goodies (of course)...

...What is now known as my travel trunk, in which I will store all my travelling experiences and memories to come...

...Film Listography!!!...

...and gift cards for all my favourite places, including Odeon cinema!

I am grateful for every single one of my lovely presents and am very lucky to have such generous people in my life. Thank you everyone!

Supermarkets

Why can I never go to a supermarket without buying anything unnecessary? 

Harry Potter Picnic!

For my 17th birthday I celebrated with a bunch of school friends and hosted a Harry Potter themed picnic in the park! Here are a few of the photos from my iPhone. I do have a lot more including photographs of the hedwig piñata, book bunting and honey dukes sweets I made but these are stored on my camera's memory card. Unfortunately as my laptop is dead (never keep drinks near electronic objects...) I won't be able to upload these for a while.
