Congratulations Tash!

Yup. Today she's off to uni.
My little birdy is leaving the nest.
She'll probably be caught up in all the uni fun that I'll eventually end up fading away from her memory.
Personally, I have no idea what I'm talking about.
I never planned on going to uni and so far I haven't gotten close to going or wanting to go.

But saying that, I do feel like a proud momma knowing that my bestie was able to get into one and is heading off today.
Spreading her educational wings and learning new things.

Congratulations Tash!

What colour should I dye my hair?

I have a couple of hair dyes at home and cant decide which one to choose

I've been obsessed with looking up people with white,grey and silver hair lately and while I was in London I saw these hair dyes and loved them.
But now I can't decide what colour to use first.

• The farmatint is a black hair dye that a friend gave me and I'm kind of scared to use it.
• Perfect colour permanent 100% grey coverage looks like a grey hair dye and I'm also scared of what I might look like with that.
• Bblonde is a very platinum hair dye,I've dyed my hair blonde before but never that light.
• White toner is just that, a white toner.
• Silver shampoo is I'm guessing for the white toner to change your hair from white to silver

I'll leave a photo of my hair here for anyone that wants to Photoshop it into any of these colours

Lush haul

As you might know I went on holiday to London recently, and while I was there I thought I'd go into Lush.
I went to the Lush shop in Oxford street.

This is what I got from Lush:

 Golden Slumbers £3.95

A sleeping potion in your bath, the calming oils in here will calm restless minds and send you on your way to heavenly sleep. With lavender oil, lavender absolute, chamomile oil and neroli to gently lift your mood just higher than the clouds and off into dreamland.

 Twilight £3.35

If sleep is evading you, this combination of essential oils will help get you ready for a good night's rest. As Twilight dissolves, it turns from the colour of the setting sun and gets darker, turning your water a shimmering deep purple. The fragrance has been designed to help you sleep: lavender is a soothing, mind-clearing and calming fragrance, used in aromatherapy to treat insomnia and aid restful sleep, while benzoin and tonka call to mind a milky caramel malt drink.

 Karma £4.25

Get an instant lift with this bubble bar with our signature exotic orange and patchouli fragrance. Sweet orange oil is refreshing, tangy and uplifting, as is lemongrass oil. Lavandin is a close relative of lavender and has similarly relaxing properties. Pine oil adds a fresh, green note to the perfume and elemi oil, which is traditionally used in incense recipes, adds complexity and freshness.

 The experimenter £3.95

If you're looking for adventure... you'll find it in The Experimenter, starring vibrant colour, popping candy and Fair Trade vanilla absolute from near the Rwenzori mountains in Uganda.

An enigmatic and comforting romance of... deep, complex vetivert notes that enthrall your senses before creamy vanilla and tonka provide a sweet antidote.

It's everything you've always wanted to do ... and with a plethora of five bright colours, it's the only one you'll ever want to do it with again. 

 Honey bee £3.35

A good soak in a Honey Bee bath will soothe and cleanse the skin thanks to its wonder trio of honey, aloe vera, and rhassoul mud, a clay mined near Morocco’s Atlas Mountains. Honey is a wonder ingredient that soothes, retains moisture and is antiseptic, and we add plenty of cooling aloe vera, too. Rhassoul mud has natural cleansing properties, and also helps condition and soften the skin.

 Tisty tosty £3.35

He loves me, he loves me not - Tisty Tosty is based on a medieval love potion. Studded with seven real rosebuds, it is scented with a captivating combination of floral orris root powder, rose, and lemon. As this dissolves in the bath, you may fall in love with it as the scent of geranium, jasmine and rose create a spellbinding fragrance. Rose oil also gets to work soothing broken hearts - it’s used by aromatherapists to lift the spirits.

I've used the product descriptions from the Lush website to give you an idea of what they smell like and what the prices are like.

Job update

Hello everybody!

For those who have been keeping up with my posts about the job I got, you´ll know I had a few worries about it, you can catch up HERE and HERE

Hopefully you're all caught up now,after asking me if I wanted to travel with him and his daughter

I obviously had some questions, and so did my dad.

My main questions were about the child, school starts mid September and I didn't think it would be good for her to miss three weeks of school (especially because she'd told me she didn't really have any friends at school and the beginning of the school year is critical if you want your child to be comfortable and make friends and ''fit in'')

My other question was why would you bother taking the babysitter?

It obviously isn't a normal thing to do so I just wanted to know why

The reasons he gave me were '' I trust you to look after my kid when I'm not around, I trust you to come late at night for me to go out with my friends and be alone with her''etc.

My dad's question's were as he was going to pay for my flight and food and everything was I going to pay me for looking after the kid whilst we were there.

The answer? NO

Was I going to get my own room? I had amused so but my dad just wanted to make sure 

The answer? NO

I was expected to share a room with him and the kid and I'd sleep on the same bed as the kid, and he'd be on the bed next to us.His reasons for this were,he was going to pay for my flight and food, and in his head that would make up for not paying me.

How long did he want to go on holiday for? 3 weeks. 

You can call me fussy if you want but I was not up for sharing a bed with a nine year old for three weeks.Plus he had said '' wherever we go, you go''

To sum up everything,I was going to be away for three weeks in a place I'd never been before,with a man that had asked me before to stay the night at his house and now wanted to share a hotel room with me,I was not going to get paid,I was not going to get my own room, I wasn't even going to get my own bed.I'd be following him and the kid around everywhere they went.

This did not sound like a holiday trip for me to my dad or myself.

So I said no, it was the weekend so I didn't have to go back until Monday.When Monday arrived I went to the house as per usual to take the kid to the beach for a while, I rang the doorbell but nobody answered, I rang again just in case...

Waited for a while and nothing.

So I rang him:

-''Where are you?''

-''Why?''

-''Because I'm at your house and its three o'clock is everything ok?''

-''Why are you at my house?''

-''Because It's Monday and I'm here to take... to the beach''

-''You don't work for us any more, I got the flight tickets yesterday''

-''I'm sorry what?''

-''You said you weren't travelling with us so you don't work for us any more I explained this to you''

He didn't say that at any point in the conversation when he was trying to persuade me to go with him, he was basically saying come with me or lose your job, and I don't remember him saying that at any point.

So now I'm jobless AGAIN, but at least I've got something to put on my CV now.

If any of you have any video suggestions for me,I'd love to hear them because I am hoping to make YouTube a full time thing.

Hello September

Hello everyone!
We're in September now, this summer hasn't lasted long enough for me honestly, but I do look forward to wearing all my hoodies and jumpers and CANDLES!
I've only got the one for now but mmmm MORE CANDLES

The good thing about Autum starting, is that I am PRE-PARED BITCHES
My wardrobe consists of every jumper, hoodie,sweater ever made. ( I still want more )

I love feeling cosy and slouchy at the same time and jumpers are perfect for that

If you would like me to do a ''my jumper collection'' video over on my Youtube channel

just let me know by commenting on my last video.

The other thing thats good about September is that ITS ONLY A MONTH UNTIL MY BIRTHDAY
So If you'd also like to see a ''what I got for my birthday'' video leave a comment on My latest video

Adult colouring in

My dad laughed at me when I said I wanted a colouring book.
I'm a 20 year old and I want to colour in okay?
The day I had my panic attack in the middle of London my dad finally thought getting a colouring book would be a good idea to help calm me down, and it did.


I think colouring in is really fun, and calming.
You can get all sorts of books with patters and ideas, and even though my dad thought I was being silly for wanting a colouring in book he sees now it does help.
I got to choose from all these books and more!
In the end I bought this one

I don't think its one of the most popular ones but I love it.
There are so many pages and so much detail I think It's going to take me years to finish it, but either way I'm not in a rush.

What are your thoughts on adult colouring books? Do you think It's silly to want to colour in as an adult?
