London Trip

Hello everyone,

So, a few weeks ago, I went, with my school, on a trip to London to Trafalgar Square and The National Are Gallery. The weather was perfect - no rain - and it was lovely to have a day in London with all my friends there. I had a really great day out and took a ridiculous amount of pictures, so I though I would share some of the nicer ones with you all...

 

Let me know which picture is your favourite in the comments below,

Updates...

Hello everyone,

I'm really sorry that today's post is going to be a bit boring, but I have some updates for you...

First, I would just like to say that I have created a new account on Instagram for this blog. You can follow me on there by clicking here, or you can search for me - my name is now in my header. (^)

I have also joined BLOGLOVIN', which, if you don't know, is a site used to help you follow multiple blogs and catch up on their posts, at the same time. You can also find my name on that in the header, or you can click here. It would be great if you could follow me on both of these.

I have just updated this blog, and made a quick header, though I'm not sure I like it, so let me know what you think of it in the comments below...

Sorry that this was boring, and soooo short but I will try to post again tomorrow - though please excuse me if I don't. Please let me know if there is anything that you would like me to do a post about in the future.

Mother's Day

Hello everyone,

Happy mother's day! Hope that you all remembered and didn't have to do any last minute shopping this morning! I'm not usually that good at remembering, but this year I didn't forget, and went shopping yesterday with my sister to get my lovely mother some goodies. Below are some pics of what we got her - the lush things were from me and the chocolate from my sister...

Nail Polish - Spring colours

Hello again,

First of all I would just like to say that I have not set a time schedule for this blog, but instead I will post whenever I find something to write about. Also SPRING IS COMING! Spring is my favourite season so I am really exited. I just love near the end of spring when it's really warm and you can just feel that Summer is almost here!

I have picked out some of my favourite nail polishes for spring time and here they are...

Left - Right - Haddow Group - natural collection 'LUNAR HAZE' - natural collection 'SHIMMER PINK' - RIMMEL LONDON 'Icing Sugar' - claire's 'Turquoise' - SEVENTEEN nail COLOUR 'Nightshade' - SEVENTEEN nail COLOUR 'Copper' - claire’s GLITTER STAND - SEVENTEEN nail COLOUR in 'Moonstruck' - Haddow Group - MAX FACTOR 'Dazzling Blue'

Of all the nail polishes in this post, this one is the one I love the most. When I first got this (for Christmas), I wasn't sure that I really liked it. However, when I painted it on, I could really see the separate colours of pink and gold. I would very much recommend this brand as the colours dry sooo fast compared to most other brands that I have tried. They are also super cheap and you can get one for Boots for just £1.99! They have a great range of colours and you really should check them out.

My thoughts...

Hello to everyone who may, or may not, be reading this. My name is Minuette and I am starting a blog - though you all can quite clearly see that!

 There may be many reasons for doing this, but, at the moment, they are all jumbled up in my head. I guess that is one of them. I sometimes feel as though all my thoughts are crammed inside my head and I just want to spill them out onto a page so that I can see them in front of me and so I can sort them out. This means that there will probably tons of boring rubbish on this page that no-one will ever read, but I hope that anyone who does read it will do their best to try to relate to me and try to understand what is going through my head. It also means that in several years time if/when I look back at this, I will think myself a total idiot and will wonder why I ever decided to write a blog in the first place.

Some people may be wondering why, if I wanted to write my feelings out, I didn't just start a diary. Well, my answer to that would be that I want people to able to read what I am thinking without actually knowing me. Hence the reason why no images of me will be posted here (not any time soon) and my blog name is not my real name. This way I feel that I can get into contact with people that don't know me without feeling like I am constantly being judged.

I find that one of the problems with me spilling my feelings to people that I see on a regular basis is that I can't tell what they are thinking. I have no idea whether they are sympathetic to me, feel sorry for me, think I'm a total idiot, or if they totally understand and feel the same way all the time, this means that if they do think I'm really weird, being around them is cinda awkward. This is often a problem as I'm a pretty self conscious person. Then there is the fact that everyone my age always seems to look better than me - all the time. I always feel that I am over-dressed or under-dressed. And on-top of that there is the dreaded hormones and various spot/skin problems which seem to get worse every day. I originally called this blog 'A New Start...', but there didn't seem to be anything 'new' happening while I wrote this, except for the fact that I feel like I need to hurry up and 'say what I'm gonna to say'.

On that note I feel that I should end here and do my best to prevent you all from going to sleep as best as I can. Please comment your feedback below and tell me what you think of my first post.

Thank you for reading - if anyone has got this far,

Minuette
