They Know Me So Well!

Okay, I'll admit it, I am an addict. A stationary addict. Pens, pencils, magazine holders... you name it, I want it. I think my biggest vice would have to be notebooks. My obsession with stationary didn't exactly go unmissed when I was in Australia, with my aunt and friend, both of whom I lived with on separate occasions, noticing pretty much straight away. This was probably due to the fact that I dragged them both into Kikki K, AKA my favourite store in the world, at every given opportunity. I'm actually pretty glad they noticed because, if they hadn't, I wouldn't have received some of the amazing leaving gifts from them that I did. These gifts just happened to include a laptop (in a Kikki K bag) and I'm not ashamed to admit that I cried. Here's what I received...

Birthday Wishlist.

I can't believe that in less than two weeks, I will be turning 19, my final birthday as a teen. Getting old scares me anyway, but turning 19?! Well, that's just petrifying. I won't actually be spending my birthday doing anything special, instead I will be spending it sitting university entry exams. Fun times. Considering the way I'll be celebrating. I figured I might as well make a good birthday wishlist so that I get some great presents. After all, you're only 19 once...

Outfits For Valentines Day.

Valentine's Day doesn't always have to be about spending time with your other half. Yes, it's nice, but I actually spent last year with some girlfriends. We got dressed up, went out for some food and simply enjoyed eachother's company. So, whether you're spending it with your other half, with friends or even by yourself, why not still get a bit dressed up?!

The Christmas Tag - Blogmas Day 24.

Boo, sob, hiss and all of the inbetween - today is the final day of blogmas. Yes, it's Christmas Eve! I will actually be celebrating Christmas on Boxing Day (I'm devestated) but that doesn't mean the final day of Blogmas has to be any less festive! I'm going to be doing a Christmas Tag!

Christmas Gift Guide for Friends - Blogmas Day 10.

I have quite a few friend groups, so my friends and I don't tend to go all out for Christmas. My friends in England don't even get anything as it would just be too expensive. Saoirse, Alba and I set a budget and then normally three of us will buy the other something. With my friendship group at school, which includes eight of us, it wouldn't make sense to go all out as we'd probably end up in debt. Instead, we do small token presents. Here's what I plan on getting them this year...

Christmas Gift Guide For Siblings - Blogmas Day 8.

Just a few days ago, I did a Christmas Gift Guide for Mums, and now it's time for the next edition - siblings. I have both a brother and a sister so I've hopefully been able to include something for everyone in here. If not, then please leave your suggestions in the comments.

Christmas Gift Guide For Mums - Blogmas Day 4.

I know a few bloggers/vloggers do this, so I thought I'd also jump on the bandwagon and do a Christmas Gift Guide, to be published throughout December, starting with Mums. Not to toot my own horn or anything, but I'm pretty awesome at buying presents, especially when it comes to my Mam. After all, I'm probably one of very few people in the world to buy their Mam a wheelbarrow for Christmas. I've had this year's presents picked out since about June and ended up picking so many that's there's enough left for next year (and possibly the year after that...). Don't worry, though, there's no wheelbarrows to be seen here.
