What I've Been Up To - March 2016

Hello,

This is a little early I know but it's nice to sit down at the end of the month and see what has been going on.


4th March - My Proactiv+ Skin Kit was delivered, this is one of my most exciting sponsored posts yet, I couldn't wait for it to arrive and give it a go.


6th March - Mothers day. We popped to a local American Diner for lunch and had bought gig tickets for the following week.

12th March -  Lianne La Havas Concert. Absolutely incredible, I wasn't a massive fan before but now I am fully converted. 


22nd March - My hometown is Hastings, East Sussex in the UK. If you didn't know our pier was burnt down a few years a go. Because of my job I had the privileged of going onto the pier to see the last plank being nailed in, by Suggs from Madness. To me this was a pretty big deal, I love supporting anything in my local area and the weather was absolutely perfect, which just put the cherry on the cake,


25th March - I was meant to be working at my 2nd job over the weekend (bank holiday Easter) but I luckily ended up with the majority of it off. The Friday I spent the day have a pub lunch with my parents and then putting up my new bed, these are the little things that make it feel like spring!

What was your favourite moment in March?

My Reverse Bucket List - 20 Years In

This year I turned 20 and it still feels surreal to say that's my age. Today I wanted to share with you my reverse bucket list, things I'm proud of and things I am happy to have experienced, or just things that have given me life experiences. 

  1. I've travelled to New York on a school art trip.
  2. Flown on a plane, British Airways is my fave.
  3. I visited Disney Land Paris with my family. 
  4. I've been Wales, to visit my grandparents.
  5. And I've been to Cyprus (twice), with a friend and her family. Holy moly was it hot.
  6. I've got into University and found out it wasn't for me, for now. 
  7. I've paid for and learnt how to drive, as well as buying my first car.
  8. Went to ballet and boxing lessons.
  9. Kept my first job for 4 years and made some amazing friends along the way.
  10. Been to a festival, Gentleman of the Road. Mumford and Sons were headlining.
  11. I got my three tattoos, script, a heart mandala and foliage. 
  12. Multiple piercings which have all been taking out now, except from my helix.
  13. I got through secondary school with pretty good grades, and I went to prom. 
  14. I'm no longer afraid of roller coasters.

  18. Started being set freebies to review on my blog.
  19. Died my hair one too many times.
  20. Moved house 12 times
  21. I've called an ambulance and made sure someone was safe (it's a lot harder to keep calm than it looks) and thank you Girl Guides for my probably now out of date first aid.
  22. I can confidently cook chicken nuggets, pot noodles, baked beans and porridge.
  23. Every year I carve pumpkins with my Mum at Halloween.

A reverse bucket list is instead of writing what you are yet to do is to write about what you have already accomplished. 

Sometimes it's amazing to look back at what you've done and where you've been, I cannot wait to see what more this world has in store for me.
