As the days get colder and the rain more frequent, I've found myself looking back through photos from the summer. I was lucky to have a very busy few months after finishing my first year of university and had the best time so I thought I'd do a recap of everything I got up to. Festivals I'd never been to a festival before and this year I went to 3! The first was The Isle of Wight Festival which was just amazing and I definitely think it's a festival for everyone to enjoy. We were able to see some amazing artists including Lewis Capaldi, Tom Grennan, The Kooks, Rudimental, Madness, Shaggy and so many more. I did end up burning myself really badly on the first day, despite frequently applying suncream but that was a small price to pay and I've already planned to go again in 2023! I also went to Boomtown which is a different kind of experience music wise but was so good to spend time with my boyfriend - Ryan and our friends. Also, the sets were incredible, and the eff...
A slightly more different post today as I was kindly nominated for The Versatile Blogger Award! I'm still fairly new to the blogging scene so to be nominated for things like this is always a lovely surprise, thank you so much to Bella! Her blog - Life With Bella N is a fab one and you should definitely check it out!
The Versatile Blogger Award is an excellent way to find out some things about your fellow bloggers, as well as discovering new ones. If you are nominated, there are some basic rules:
- Thank those that nominated you
- Share 7 facts about yourself
- Nominate 15 other bloggers
7 Facts About Me:
1) I'd like to be taller - I'm about 5ft 1-2 so yes I have the daily struggles of clothes being too long, people thinking you're much younger than you are and just constantly having to look up. I don't hate being short, I'm used to it now and there are definitely some perks, however I would like an extra few inches!
2) I love doing quizzes - I can just spend ages testing myself on random subjects, Buzzfeed is great for that! I have always enjoyed quizzes, whether they were at school, in my magazines I loved as a kid, panel shows or online. Equally, I also enjoy testing other people (much to their enjoyment...) When I was younger, I regularly asked my Mum to recite every child's birthday in my class!
3) In 2001 (aged 2) I was given the 'Trendy Toddler' award in our local carnival. This basically involved me going round the town in a car and waving at people on carnival night, though I did get a pretty cool trophy too!
4) The Wizard of Oz is one of my favourite movies - I first watched it when I was about 2 and fell in love, I then proceeded to watch it every single day for a considerable amount of time. When finding out I was going to be a big sister, my name suggestions were Dorothy for a girl and Toto for a boy, but unfortunately my parents didn't go with my choices!! Nowadays I still enjoy it because it makes me feel so nostalgic.
5) I hope to set foot on every continent - I have always wanted to travel and I would love to say that I had completed that one day! So far I've done 2 of 7!
6) I enjoy learning - I know a fair amount of people hate school, however I actually quite liked it. Sure, it had moments that sucked but I loved being in an environment where I could learn constantly and still be around friends!
7) In 2 days I will have been with my boyfriend for a whole 40 months - It seems like yesterday that we first met but at the same time it also feels like we have been together forever!
