I do exercise quite alot anyway but the last few months this had dropped down from daily to a few times a week, but this week I have really got back into it, I have been to the gym as well as using my treadmill on an average on half hour a day,<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHZmwRAy6Buag90A_kHjG_UZWxg5fq0EKiWMZOmsq2wbHAy9Xjci9_-oS5qbCVmi7GUI1k_HdaXqAIVZkmjJLLgTGtfXgzWQ8RNb5FrcYw1fWQMkskpYgdx7fmPqxKFzqdBUqUZLMCyex-/s1600-h/johnson-t8000-treadmill.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5432606609628903762" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHZmwRAy6Buag90A_kHjG_UZWxg5fq0EKiWMZOmsq2wbHAy9Xjci9_-oS5qbCVmi7GUI1k_HdaXqAIVZkmjJLLgTGtfXgzWQ8RNb5FrcYw1fWQMkskpYgdx7fmPqxKFzqdBUqUZLMCyex-/s320/johnson-t8000-treadmill.jpg" /></a> and I have been using the wii fit alot too, even if it has just been to do the free stepping thing while I watch hollyoaks or something, so I would say the past week or so I have been doing atleast 45mins of exercise a day on top of going to work where I move around alot so have been doing quite well on that front!<br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXxFFloPUSlHGdF8yRZqYSluAXAjRz_lDspsskkF6V17eq-HG-wy0GRAVMEUkersJ1KY5FQTa1c4XO3X0X4QLBC5lVCzONjm1JkL6WL__6001qRNxkEB8PZ8wNmppW4xAkFgWTuOYm-AlL/s1600-h/wii-fit-big.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 319px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5432606417336115538" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXxFFloPUSlHGdF8yRZqYSluAXAjRz_lDspsskkF6V17eq-HG-wy0GRAVMEUkersJ1KY5FQTa1c4XO3X0X4QLBC5lVCzONjm1JkL6WL__6001qRNxkEB8PZ8wNmppW4xAkFgWTuOYm-AlL/s320/wii-fit-big.jpg" /></a><br />I have also been doing a 6min pilates video of abs exercises and attempting to do sit ups the past few days, Im not too sure im doin them right tho, any tips on how to do them right?</div><div><br /><div></div></div>Beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08273204886903470040noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-147698097899589603.post-12855584073585239242010-01-24T07:26:00.001-08:002010-01-24T07:30:55.666-08:00Weight Loss week 2This weeks challenge was to post a photo of myself which I like, I had to go through all my facebook photos as my laptop has broken and been sent off to be fixed so I didnt have any on my old one to choose from so this took a while lol.

So I thought I would post aswell as having somewhere to put my plans and results will hopefully give me some extra motivation. Cat did suggest videos on progress as well but I am seriously the most shy person ever so i think Im going to stick to blog posts for the time being.<br /><br />I am currently 5'4 and 8stone 5ish. I know that is not overweight but my weight seems to have been very up and down the last 5 months or so and I would like to stabalise it at a weight Im happy with and get fitter. I had a bad break up in august which saw me drop to about 8 stone 2, then I went back up to about 8 stone 10 as I got back to normal and then about a month ago I had a bad time again and again dropped down to about 8 stone 3. I feel more comfortable when I am these lower weights and would say that it is probably my ideal weight but I put weight on easily and have gone back to eating rubbish again and the weight is coming back on quickly, and it goes straight to my face which I hate and I feel very bloated alot of the time. I seem to be comfort eating at the moment which I can only relate to the fact my grandma has been very ill in hospital for a few months, I am eating a lot of sweets like haribo which is also giving me spots which is unusual for me so i am also going to drink alot more water. I do drink alot of water anyway as I like it and i always feel better when I get into a routine of drinking lots of water daily.<br /><br />So my plan for shaping up is to cut out the sweets, chocolates and stuff and to stop picking at things in between meals, and also to stop eating so many take aways as I seem to eat them more than I eat at home these days! I will go to the gym more than the once I week I seem to have dropped down too and get back into using my treadmill and wii fit at home as before I went on holiday this year I was using both daily and seeing good results.<br />I have also been walking home from work quite alot the last few weeks due to the snow making it pretty impossible to drive my car without killing myself. it is about 2 and a half miles and I have found I quite enjoy the walks, its quite calming and I feel good after doing it, so I am going to try and keep this up and walk home from work atleast once or twice a week even after the snow has finally gone.Beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08273204886903470040noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-147698097899589603.post-69220486683219748122010-01-01T13:22:00.000-08:002010-01-01T13:29:07.495-08:00Happy new year!<div>Happy new year everyone :) This is a quick post about my new years resolutions for 2010, more something for me to look back at and see if iv achieved anything i guess.</div><br /><div>So here they are:</div><br /><ol><br /><li>To actually go to all my classes and lectures this term instead of </li></ol><br /><p>going back to bed when my alarm goes off!</p><p>2.

Iv had the urge to do a post for a while now and have a free evening so here it is :)<br /><br />I thought I would start with showing you some of the products which I love right now.<br />First is Benefit Coralista blusher which I won in a blog giveaway a few month ago and I absolutely love it!! I will definatly be buying it again when it runs out, although I have been using it daily and I still have loads left so hopefully that wont be any time soon!<br />I also love the 17 Instant glow bronzing powder in light, I have been using this for atleast 6 month and its definatly the best bronzer for me and its pretty cheap at about £3.50 in boots so Im really happy with it!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQeogUf6TL0udj9jcJ_I9sjz3lHdmJ8GnYINTIp9_6OVx7cye2wm1uH5Nnw4hyFxyQ5BAu0E1ANp_JntRed0swIbdwMFDIVgxeFMg6KKvoNsdMh298vSEb1b1tDDblsrO1Q4P6lZ78BY_y/s1600-h/SAM_0777.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5421135782946257394" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQeogUf6TL0udj9jcJ_I9sjz3lHdmJ8GnYINTIp9_6OVx7cye2wm1uH5Nnw4hyFxyQ5BAu0E1ANp_JntRed0swIbdwMFDIVgxeFMg6KKvoNsdMh298vSEb1b1tDDblsrO1Q4P6lZ78BY_y/s320/SAM_0777.JPG" /></a><br />I tend to use my E.L.F powder brush most with my face products, if not then I use one of my elizabeth arden kabuki brushes.<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyA55oohT67LljPfxiJO9V6VyWvSQU_A_ut_RGxDJQrvvJqmq6c8xX1hta25Vp8SUgzYDXbXB8ek4AwlBhyphenhyphen4xGQnNA09tZi4-WFbmGNCQUA2d3Yc3-CFE7Hq8EB0QCig14kFUkypKStX-u/s1600-h/SAM_0778.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5421135778833414178" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyA55oohT67LljPfxiJO9V6VyWvSQU_A_ut_RGxDJQrvvJqmq6c8xX1hta25Vp8SUgzYDXbXB8ek4AwlBhyphenhyphen4xGQnNA09tZi4-WFbmGNCQUA2d3Yc3-CFE7Hq8EB0QCig14kFUkypKStX-u/s320/SAM_0778.JPG" /></a><br />Next, are 2 lip products that I have been using alot, on the left is No7 sheer temptation lipstick in Smoulder 30, It looks really red but it is very sheer and just gives a lovely colour to the lips without looking to drastic and its perfect for everyday or for a night out! On the right is an e.l.f mineral lipstick which cost me £3.50 in nicely nude, i was expecting a nude lipstick when i ordered this, but its more pink and im glad as I love it, just right for wearing anytime.<br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUhwbGgIwRO4BoMA9dXE67D4eOuWi2Pf2Gh-WrgXQommS4v3P40VyLCI4Swz34KUH8TnQlA2Bj-dTm-MwsI7yRghg4oIT07BpufmjrxvaOaHmBqIKly-7B3Mnq7bMZMiDyEdpICQlv1SIg/s1600-h/SAM_0776.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5421135767938997906" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUhwbGgIwRO4BoMA9dXE67D4eOuWi2Pf2Gh-WrgXQommS4v3P40VyLCI4Swz34KUH8TnQlA2Bj-dTm-MwsI7yRghg4oIT07BpufmjrxvaOaHmBqIKly-7B3Mnq7bMZMiDyEdpICQlv1SIg/s320/SAM_0776.JPG" /></a> Here are 2 collection 2000 mascaras I use at the moment, the waterproof volume sensation in black which I have been using since august and the longer lash false lash effect mascara in ultra black which I have been using a few weeks! both of these were about £3 each and they are amazing for the price. Before buying these I was using the max factor false lash effect mascara which was really good but I definatly prefer these 2 for the price as they work just as well and I would definatly recommend them!<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_EFwtBRCnODCMylx_F3wbzhHEHfHaCtOhyxm1JQTPtC9zPCHqdkZyBwtta1mLVNWlqEp0WnL_8zaIn9pMGuVvEzMbHAgvGSaHe6tob6dPrzvo5iKZh3tp0SgxQX2SuL-aPqnxh1Uln6PD/s1600-h/SAM_0779.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5421134380960720514" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_EFwtBRCnODCMylx_F3wbzhHEHfHaCtOhyxm1JQTPtC9zPCHqdkZyBwtta1mLVNWlqEp0WnL_8zaIn9pMGuVvEzMbHAgvGSaHe6tob6dPrzvo5iKZh3tp0SgxQX2SuL-aPqnxh1Uln6PD/s320/SAM_0779.JPG" /></a> </div><div>Also thought I would show you a few beauty bits I got for xmas, I didnt get much this year as there is alot going on as my grandma is very ill in hospital so everyones been to preoccupied for xmas so I was pleased to just get a few bits my mum had managed to pick up as I wasnt expecting anything :)</div><div> </div><div>She got me the no7 colour collection which comes with a make up bag, purse, mirror. eyeshadows in comet, vivid violet, midnight blue, twilight, light shade and organza, lipstick in cameo, sheer temptation lipstick in entice.

I got this one on offer at Boots as part of the new range. Im keen to try out some of the other colours, I was having a look today and there is another in Hollywood red which looks lovely.</div><div>I got the natural collection lipsticks today on a 3 for 2 offer so I got all 3 for £3.90 in Boots! I really wanted a wearable red lipstick as being fair skinned I find dark colours very draining and Im hoping with abit of fake tan the crimson one will work out for me! Going to go back and get 3 more tomorrow I think as I have over £5 in points and there were quite a few more of their lipsticks which I liked.</div><div> </div><div>Also, check out this great give away over at <a href="http://just-jens-blog.blogspot.com/2009/09/my-first-giveaway.html">Just Jen</a>, there are some great prizes! and watch out my giveaway soon, I have to buy a few more prizes yet though.</div><div><br /><br /> </div><div></div></div>Beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08273204886903470040noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-147698097899589603.post-54534456360026258492009-09-03T02:20:00.000-07:002009-09-03T09:47:49.704-07:00Im back with wedding photos!Hiya everyone, so firstly I want to say sorry for this being my first post in 2 weeks!

Have never seen these before anywhere else so I was impressed!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgDePJgi8WsCP2NNIrHg_hgnyjKVz4hoB2ZPQIRI9JWZL1ZzXMbhb0iRnL9BSHRkk_xMpjhaXDufnBrip7BRe6hDHd-MJ5t5TXFAv1Q7csjmytadyNXug4lhmA5LglTTFuusYjtfajuiTk/s1600-h/DSC00252.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5372133438815252258" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgDePJgi8WsCP2NNIrHg_hgnyjKVz4hoB2ZPQIRI9JWZL1ZzXMbhb0iRnL9BSHRkk_xMpjhaXDufnBrip7BRe6hDHd-MJ5t5TXFAv1Q7csjmytadyNXug4lhmA5LglTTFuusYjtfajuiTk/s320/DSC00252.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKYUC0vNCAL8l83ASzhi14m6fjbw3r1t6ToMvo88BoGbzXiqYhamYFshBthYaaIcCD6pc_Ru4juE3AXIQmgnsP5wzkbc9jaagtTillh51tlUtz5mNSuxjRZpGM4x046OKvPuTxkUJRtyTP/s1600-h/DSC00254.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5372133435102825074" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKYUC0vNCAL8l83ASzhi14m6fjbw3r1t6ToMvo88BoGbzXiqYhamYFshBthYaaIcCD6pc_Ru4juE3AXIQmgnsP5wzkbc9jaagtTillh51tlUtz5mNSuxjRZpGM4x046OKvPuTxkUJRtyTP/s320/DSC00254.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div> </div></div>Beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08273204886903470040noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-147698097899589603.post-4267990061930033232009-08-19T11:58:00.000-07:002009-08-19T12:16:47.331-07:00E.L.F & NOTD<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpYI32TJ4hU55eb-Y4AiEauu_slccsDPvFM9YND7zqutnncqMPaBERGHvOnc4t9_svzafrh4_24ZbyUFnZOT6vT6EUgHtz1ABSEC4oK86bQphDxeqpeQx0RZKKrvZh6ep2MjOIuhHA4m9J/s1600-h/DSC00239.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371753308327790242" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpYI32TJ4hU55eb-Y4AiEauu_slccsDPvFM9YND7zqutnncqMPaBERGHvOnc4t9_svzafrh4_24ZbyUFnZOT6vT6EUgHtz1ABSEC4oK86bQphDxeqpeQx0RZKKrvZh6ep2MjOIuhHA4m9J/s320/DSC00239.JPG" border="0" /></a><br />Here is my nail of the day, I got this sally hansen polish from T J hughes a while ago for £1.99 when my nails were looking bad and I wanted to paint them in work but never got round to it. It is Hard as wraps in Mauve creme. The bottle says it contains acrylic gel and nylon to help them last longer! Im not sure Im too keen on the colour, its a bit plain and quite a dull pink but it seems a good quality!<br /><br />I also got a few bits from elf when my sister recently placed an order, I got 3 things from the normal range for £1.50 each. I got the foundation brush, I havent used this yet but it seems good enough, its soft and I am looking forward to using it tomorrow!<br />I also the 2 nail polishs, 1 which is a new one to the website called chocolate, which I must say doesnt look much like the swatch in the bottle, Its a really dark brown and I am interested to see how it looks when I use it. The second is in Light pink, which looks really pretty, I love the bottles too from elf with the detail of the polish spilling over the sides, its cute.<br /><br /><p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371753295230537922" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRwArNNr66EiQWZp7aWR6U8WLiiJxgXwrVW9oxVRet2QCcrZF9GFH57yJWTxLI_MBHGM_l-o9lYovxJVVK1Tr7uJovDOBtVqSl87CT0pksrCYE9lkFxr6ez2ycmzd4sjcuH1IoBdG10obl/s320/DSC00236.JPG" border="0" /></p><p>This is the chocolate nail polish, I was hoping it might be a similar cheaper alternative to the nails inc jermyn street I have been using recently but unfortunatly its nothing like it, its alot more of a rich dark brown :(</p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLtDLQ2ilb-cNvEfJ2AAiPJIeTyRs71zaTjX5QRxynlJeXRZBUJmy3eZE129FHjNGmUrf9kIg22yYZtAAhG4LBi1qG7pnb2ZQfi89tv-2kiqN_f3mwD9VpmKUncklsuYgkDUEb-oX01US7/s1600-h/DSC00237.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371753305632843282" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLtDLQ2ilb-cNvEfJ2AAiPJIeTyRs71zaTjX5QRxynlJeXRZBUJmy3eZE129FHjNGmUrf9kIg22yYZtAAhG4LBi1qG7pnb2ZQfi89tv-2kiqN_f3mwD9VpmKUncklsuYgkDUEb-oX01US7/s320/DSC00237.JPG" border="0" /></a><br />On another note, I tried doing a french braid in my hair today, I have had this done by a fried before but this was my first attempt and it took me loads of tries to get it even resembling a plait, and this is the finished attempt below, has anyone got any tips on how to do this better as I really like how it looks when done properly.

It looks a bit weird in my photo, but its a really nice creamy brown, this went on really well but I have to say it chipped really easily at work today, and now I have 2 fingers with half of it missing and I havent really done to much, I will be reapplying so hopefully it will last abit longer next time.

These all cost £1 with the offer from a newspaper, sorry cant remember which it was, but Im abit confused as to why only one has the proper design on the bottle with the hands while the other two just look cheap.. Has anyone else noticed this on their bottles?<br />I got (left-right) China town, Jermyn street and basil street. They all seem like nice colours, I tried china town the other day and that seems a really nice bright shade and I think the other two will be really good for the winter, I will do a post when I have used them properly and can judge how good they are.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3HJp3WzX68RKGlmtmdrP27OG8WWoMsAhMtNnMrvcn72Df3difNl1bmZ9aZAmrIGBuS9TRUfy_UXOzmz5Yn2p1xsh38A5A5InbMnhd7JyatO5rAKr55rpkMwLCQGhw-astYwewE9ClUJbM/s1600-h/DSC00222.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5369521183815487314" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3HJp3WzX68RKGlmtmdrP27OG8WWoMsAhMtNnMrvcn72Df3difNl1bmZ9aZAmrIGBuS9TRUfy_UXOzmz5Yn2p1xsh38A5A5InbMnhd7JyatO5rAKr55rpkMwLCQGhw-astYwewE9ClUJbM/s320/DSC00222.JPG" border="0" /></a><br />Also I know this has nothing to do with make up but I went out for my older sisters hen night on saturday night as she is getting married in just over 2 weeks on august 29th. I wasnt going to go as Im skint but my boyfriend decided he was going out so I went too, I had about 5 mins to get ready and luckily found a red dress as the theme was red devils. This is me on the right looking like crap with my 2 sisters, the one in the middle is the one who is getting married. Anyway it was a fun night even though I didnt drink much as I get awful hangovers, but my fave bit was getting to wear my most favourite shoes!<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiNIWihghIGwGK60ok4_q4RspQRbRs-jX6YECbklSI1zInKyKZibJbykK_tQwT5-_0shPSv3Cb82RoktcAPXKPzm4ZtmxEp5WPP-cJJtId_YEEehq-UAWKWHivXWc8nPFOpD4KbNcFM3Yo/s1600-h/DSC00206.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5369521172637744882" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiNIWihghIGwGK60ok4_q4RspQRbRs-jX6YECbklSI1zInKyKZibJbykK_tQwT5-_0shPSv3Cb82RoktcAPXKPzm4ZtmxEp5WPP-cJJtId_YEEehq-UAWKWHivXWc8nPFOpD4KbNcFM3Yo/s320/DSC00206.JPG" border="0" /></a> I got them from T K Maxx last year for about £40 and they are Betty Jackson Studio and I love them so much, they are a lovely dark blue and are really high but also really comfortable as they have a bit of a platform at the front so I can walk properly in them..<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyDoePUCTxHJkylEO11I8zkjHesygA9JFvFjDWjx1hDA8ej5vL1WzK0UpJsR-C9Vhe5WN1azrrD29oZy41MKepxx8-gzVGLBHkH2b0qxb064xpRTB-MajLzpKcHM8wxm8I_F3N4qWArF-c/s1600-h/DSC00224.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5369521161629500930" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyDoePUCTxHJkylEO11I8zkjHesygA9JFvFjDWjx1hDA8ej5vL1WzK0UpJsR-C9Vhe5WN1azrrD29oZy41MKepxx8-gzVGLBHkH2b0qxb064xpRTB-MajLzpKcHM8wxm8I_F3N4qWArF-c/s320/DSC00224.JPG" border="0" /></a><br />I love them!<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwJ8xxPt6SUQsyCHlvJQMkHrl_AFbhWGda3q514Da18J8xo8VC2VsJinVNmYKhyWrTvtJnGSlrzLTtEysIQEVQhWnJqvttAD1T-Rz2kfBrpknBAHOup_ls_Ol7ZmQjxaIcQOCpnALTV924/s1600-h/DSC00225.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5369521148850907362" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwJ8xxPt6SUQsyCHlvJQMkHrl_AFbhWGda3q514Da18J8xo8VC2VsJinVNmYKhyWrTvtJnGSlrzLTtEysIQEVQhWnJqvttAD1T-Rz2kfBrpknBAHOup_ls_Ol7ZmQjxaIcQOCpnALTV924/s320/DSC00225.JPG" border="0" /></a> Finally, I know this post has gone on about alot of random crap but I just had to show you my new bag from Debenhams which I have got for uni, it was £30 and its a pale blue, for some reason this photo makes it look really dull but its lovely in real life I promise, its medium size and has handles plus a strap so tyou can wear it over your body which is what I wanted as I hate carrying heavy bags and getting dead arms. Im actually really looking forward to going back to uni, Im at that stage of the summer where Im bored and I actually feel like coursework and stuff would be interesting but I know Ill be hating it within a few days when I go back!
