New year = ???

Hey guys, 

So it's been a long time since I last updated ... Yeah sorry about that, I've been stressed about school and other things but I am back on track. 

So what's happened since I last updated: 
1) I've had a mock exam to study for. In case you don't know what a mock exam is it's like a real exam but it doesn't go towards your final grade so if you do bad it doesn't really matter. But I studied really hard for that 
2) I've been feeling unmotivated. This happens a lot with me. And when I feel ready I will tell you the reason but for now it doesn't matter 
3) I've been sleeping nonstop since going back into school and stating my alevels I feel like I haven't slept in ages so I've been catching up on my sleep
4) it been CHRISTMAS!!! So I hope you all had an amazing Christmas. And got everything that you wanted. And if you don't celebrate Christmas I hope you had an amazing day doing whatever you did.
5) as I write this it is currently New Year's Eve in England and I'm welcoming the new year with open arms. 

So the new year what does this mean to you? Let me know in the comments. 
For me it means a new start and a way to start over from all the bad things that happened in 2013. And yes I have sent New Years resolutions 
1) smile everyday even if I feel down. 
2) be more positive. By this I mean I'm not going to think negative things all the time I'm going to be a more positive person.
3) dedicate more time to cheerleading. When we have a week off practice I go back the next week feeling unfit. Enough said. 
4) continue to be happy. 

That's all for this post. Please comment what the new year means to you and any resolutions that you guys have. Oh and something that you would like to see me talk about please. 

See you next year (sorry had to be said) 
Thanks for reading

Little update

Hi guys, 

It's been a while since I have written a post. Sorry about that I've been really busy with school, having essays to write and course work to do. So I thought I would just give you a bit of an update with everything that's going on: 
1- I now only do three subjects in school. I've dropped history after speaking to my teacher, we decided it would be best and then speaking to the head of my year as well. So school life is a lot easier 

2- I've been non stop listening to One Direction's Midnight Memories album. It's just so amazing and wow! 

3- I go on exam leave soon. Meaning that I can hopefully write more posts. 

Well that's it for now, sorry guys.

Canada 2011

Hi guys,

So back in 2011 my mum, grandma, granddad and myself went to Canada for a family reunion. So I thought I would show you pictures from our trip to Canada.


So the whole trip started off at an airport (stating the obvious here haha) and lucky us our flight was delayed by an hour. so when we finally got on the plane we settled ready for a nine hour flight and me being me cant sleep on planes so I stayed awake and watched movies. when we landed in Toronto to catch a connecting flight to Saskatoon. and again our flight was delayed for what had to be four hours. that day we ended doing 27 and a half hours of traveling.

We finally made it to Saskatoon, and Wanda and Gerald were waiting for us to drive us to our hotel for the night. So as you can imagine we all passed out as soon as our head hit the pillow. The next morning we went to Denny's for breakfast and it was pretty exciting for both me and my mum as we had never been to Canada before where as my grandparents had been.
For breakfast me and my mum had these doughnut balls and chocolate sauce, and omg they are amazing!
 
And then it was time to head out of our hotel and on the way to Saskatchewan, Loon Lake. Wanda leading the way. At this point we had collected the rental car. Grandma was in the car with Wanda.  Mum granddad Gerald and me were in our rental car. So we had another bit of travelling a head of us. we of course stopped for lunch on the way,  we went to Tim Hortons and I asked for a bacon roll but they didn't understand what that was so Wanda ordered me a BLT but without the L and T.Then to stretch our legs we walked around the Mall they are so much better then the shopping centres in England so much bigger and better shops.
 
 
So we then made it to Loon Lake and I fell in love with it there and then. It is just a beautiful place so peaceful and everything is in walking distance.
The most amazing place I visited while we where in Loon Lake has to be Loon Lake itself as it is just so peaceful and gentle. Gerald took us on his boat around the lake and it just took my breath away.
 
 
So we went to the family reunion and it was held in the village recreational centre which like everything was in walking distance. And it was nice to see people I have never met before and i think this helped me out of my shyness a lot as I was surrounded  by people I didn't know. but the whole experience was just amazing. And it was a birthday during the reunion so we had some ice cream cake and still 2 years later I still cant believe there is ice cream cake and why don't we have this in England?!
 
We spent a day with a family member and she showed us all around Loon Lake in all of its beauty and the final night we spent in Loon Lake we all went to Wandas house for dinner and we witnessed our first storm in Canada and saw a hummingbird.
 
And before we knew it that was out ten days in Loon Lake over and we headed back to the airport and flew to Toronto. And the atmosphere in Toronto was completely different to Loon Lake. it was busy loud and people didn't walk anywhere!

Across from the hotel we stayed in was a park with a pond in it. So at some point each day we would go and sit there. 

 
Before we went home we went on a trip to see Niagra falls, it was amazing and so loud. We went on the boat trip around the falls and the blue poncho thing that they gave us was no help at all the hood on mine kept falling down so I just got soaked. 

I honestly have no idea what this is but I thought it was really pretty. 

The majestic niagra falls 


We went up the centre and you could see our hotel from it. It is behind the pink thing. It has the green part on the roof 

Me and my mum. 

The CN tower 

This was in our hotel. The middle of the hotel had this in it and you could go inside it.
This was out side the air canada centre. 


So that was trip to canada and the places that I visited.

Favorite sports? 
My favroite sport to watch in tv is rugby, my favroite sport to participate in has to be cheerleading and when I was younger it used it be running and I would do that a lot. 


Favroite band/ song?
This has to be at the moment The Vamps with their album Can We Dance this is all I have listened to since it has been out, I could listen to it all day. Or Lawson with Juilet because it is just such a catchy song and it's just amazing

Mornings and motivation

My friend Leanne posted a video on her talking about motivation and it inspired me to write this post. So watch her video and subscibe to her channel (http://www.youtube.com/user/Leanneeb19 ) 

So in the morning I have to set three alarms for me to wake up and stay awake,yeah I'm that lazy I will fall back sleep, I set them for 6:30 6:45 and 7am. I normally wake up at the first one and stay awake. So once I am awake I will check my phone for any messages and then reply to them. I will then scroll through Facebook Twitter and Instagram. 

I then sit in bed thinking about what is happening that day: what lessons I have, friends I will talk to even the music I will listen to at the bus stop and on the bus. I will then get on with my morning routine. 

Some days I won't want to get out of bed all I want to do is stay in bed and do nothing at all. But I then sit and think about things I will do that day and then what I will do when I get home from school and I will hade something to look forward to after school. So whenever you have that day of not wanting to get out of bed and face the day, just sit for a few moments and think of everything you will do that day and then set yourself something to look forward to. 

So once I'm ready for school I will plug my head phones into my phone and listen to my favorite song/album/artist and I will have it on repeat all day and I will just listen to that when i listen to music that day. 

When I get to school and I'm still feeling down and not wanting to be there or get involved with anything just wanting to got home and hide in bed. I will go over to the table of my friends and join in with the conversation they are having and i find myself having a laugh and getting involved and more importantly wanting to be at school! 

Now the school I go to when your in 16+ doing alevels you get free periods, in these you can do homework or talk to friends. So in my frees when I'm feeling down I will go over to my friends in my frees and I will join in the conversation and 9/10 times at the end of that hour I will be feeling so much happier because I've been laughing and enjoying myself. But that 1/10 time I will be still feeling down so I will message my sister and talk to her about what is making me feel sad and then we will talk about it and I will feel happier as it is a weight off my shoulder to talk to someone about it. 

So when your feeling down please remember to:
- think of everything that you will do that day 
- set yourself something to look forward to 
- listen to your favorite song 
- get involved and have a laugh 
- talk to someone you trust 
- talk to friends 

And remember what ever it is that is making you feel sad or down it will get better we have all been there and it does get better it might not be today or tomorrow but no matter what is bothering you it will one day just disappear and it won't worry you anymore!

What to do when you are ill...

So by the title of this post you can guess I'm ill. Yeah it's a new record been at school for three weeks and I'm already ill. I have a cold, I know it doesn't sound that bad but when I get a cold it gets really bad and I get really ill. But I went to school on Thursday feeling fine, got home Thursday and felt kind of ill like I had a cold coming along. Friday I woke up with a blocked nose and a sore throat. Great. So I went to school and felt worse and worse as the school day went on, at lunch I felt so ill and I was swaying in place, so I went to the office and signed out. Apparently as I was walking I was swaying and walking all over. Now I don't remember any of that. So from going to the office and getting into my mums car is just a blur I do not remember anything. 
So to help anyone that is ill I have complied a list of this to do when your ill: 

1: Sleep it's all you feel like doing when you are ill so it makes sense to sleep and it helps your body fight off the cold 
2: Eat now I know you won't feel like it but it's good to eat. Preferably fruit like oranges as they contain vitamin c which is good for you. 
3: Drink water again it's good for you. But if you are like me and you don't like water then try flavored water 
4: Read it gives you something to do whilst your ill and it's takes your mind off it. So you might read a book, I'm reading the hunger games again, or you might want to read magazines,in read teen now and heat. 
5: Watch TV again it's some thing to do whilst your ill 
6: Sleep some more 
7: Now I've done this all weekend stay in your PJs your not going any where so there is no need to get changed 
8: Mope and complain I actually haven't done this, this time but I usually do. My mum gets annoyed with me as it is all I normally do
9: Text friends, if you've had the day off school catch up on what you missed 
10: Go on Twitter Facebook YouTube and Instagram, and catch up on what is going on 
11: final thing again is SLEEP!! 

So hopefully after doing all of these you are feeling slightly better if not take cold and flu tablets these help they make you feel so much better. They last four hours and you feel so much better! 

That's all for now thanks for reading 
I'm now going back to bed and sleeping

What's in my school bag

Hi everyone, 

So as I mentioned in my last post I'm not back at school so I thought why not do a what's in my school bag (and I procrastinating about doing homework) 

So here we go


This is my bag that i take to school, I've just switched back to this bag actually as it fits more stuff in it
The bag is from accessorize and it was £32 I think 


In the left hand pocket I have my bus pass holder which holds my bus pass and my student discount card 
This was again from accessorize but I got it 3 years ago so I'm not sure if this still sell this exact one but I think it was £5 

In the right hand pocket I have hand sanitizer, my head phones and my house keys,



And then in the main section I have my lunch and a bottle of water but I forgot to take a photo of them 
And my glasses again I forgot. 
The first thing I pulled out was my pencil case 
My pencil case was from WHSmiths and it was £4 I think 

Then I pulled out my English book and folder 
We got given the book by our teacher (the yellow one) and I can't remember where I got my folder from 

The next thing I pulled out were my two English books we are studying. I have two different teachers and they are both doing a different topic
I ordered these off amazon and can't remember the price 

Then I pulled out my health and social care text book which has all 3 units we are doing in it
I could find a copy anywhere so I brought my copy from my teacher for £10 

I then pulled out my history textbooks again we have two teacher one is teaching Britain and the other is teaching Russia 
Both of these I got off amazon again and I can't remember how much they were again



I then pulled out my history and health folder, sometimes this will go in my bag and other times I would carry it 
I got this folder from WHSmiths and it was £4.99 

I then pulled out my psychology folder which again I would carry sometimes and others have it in my bag 
It is a lever arch folder and it was again from WHSmiths and I think it was £6 but I'm not to sure 


The last thing I pulled out was my notepad which has some homework I'm completing written on it 
My notepad again from WHSmiths was £3 I think 


So that's all that is in my bag. I would have my phone in there but I was taking my pictures on there, so sorry if the photos are bad and the lighting is really bad. I will make sure it is better next time 

Thanks for reading, please comment saying what you would like to see next.

Bit of a ramble

Hi guys 

So I got home from school and did all my homework and got that out the way and now I'm in the mood to blog … but I have no idea what to write about so this should be fun

So last week I started sixth form which if you didn't know is education for people who are aged 16-18, it's like college I guess. So ive been adjusting to going back to school again which isn't nice after you've been going to bed at midnight and waking up whenever, to now getting up at 6:30 and being unable to fall sleep. Going into sixth form is a massive jump from GCSE as if you don't keep on to of all your work then your lost basically. I've already rewritten notes and got stressed out and had a little cry and even thought about dropping out. But I've stayed and I'm now enjoying it, as part of being in 16+ we have to do a community placement and for one of the lessons I'm taking you have to get a placement as well and lucky for me my placement counts for both of them!! So for 16+ we have to get our own text books, we will get told in a lesson that for homework we need to get a textbook and read 3 chapters of it and its due in for next week, the only place you can find the textbooks is on amazon, so my mu has ordered all of my books for me and we are starting to panic slightly as I need them this week and none of them have arrived. Yeah the school has copies in the library but they have all been taken out! So I have no idea what to do :( 


So last weekend was the victory show, this is a bunch of war and battle reenactment and they have planes flying over such as the spitfire and the Vulcan. The down side is the event cost at least £22 pounds to get in per person, I've been into the event once and it was amazing and the best thing ever. But the good thing is my grandparents house is opposite the field the event is held in. So me my mum and her partner all went to my grandparents to watch the planes fly over and we had a BBQ and it was amazing. It's something we do every year and it bring my grandparents, my cousin and her partner and mum and I all together and we have an amazing weekend! But this year my mums boyfriend decided to turn it into a competition, as we take photos of the planes as they fly over, he decided to give a trophy to the person who had the best photo, and certificates to the people who took the most and the least photos and the person who got the worst photo. We took between us 5600 photos and at least 1400 of them are mine (oops)


Well I have thing else to say so thanks for reading :)

Mines the lion king and that maybe why I'm so obsessed with it 

9- What is your favourite Disney movie?

Summer in the city 2013

So on the 16 of August 2013 my mum kindly drove me, Jess and her mum down to London and we stayed the weekend. Me and Jess were attending Summer In The City and our parents just came along so we weren't alone in London. 

The journey down to London was actually better than I thought it would be. I thought we would be in the car for four hours. Oh how wrong I was, the car journey was only 2 hours long. There wasn't much traffic on the road. Although we did see an over turned car, and when I say over turned I mean it was on its roof and crushed, we didn't see any passengers or the driver but there was a police car and two ambulances  :( needless to say i was scared for the rest of the journey. But that was the only trouble we came across. 

So when we arrived at our hotel we saw that it wasn't just a hotel on it own, there were a lot of restaurants ( cafe rouge,McDonald's, Pizza Hut and many more)  there was also types of activities to do there as well ( Hollywood bowling, vue cinema and a swimming baths). So we went a checked into the hotel and me and my mum went into one room and Jess and her mum went in the other room. Luckily the rooms had wifi so that was a bonus. Once we had settled into the hotel we went on a walk around and we decided to have a Pizza Hut for dinner. 

Once we had our dinner, mum and Jess had a mcflurry from McDonald's and then we went back to mine and my mums room. Both our parents sat on the bed a had a glass of wine and a good gossip and me and Jess sat by the coffee table and made our books for summer in the city. We had printed out pictures of the YouTubers we hoped to meet and I went out a week before and brought notepads to stick the picture in and get signatures in hopefully. Around 10pm we all were pretty tired so Jess and her mum went back to their hotel room and me and my mum got changed and went to bed. 

The next morning I was pretty excited to say the least. So we got up and got dressed and went down to breakfast and by this stage I was bursting with the excitement of meeting YouTubers! So after breakfast we went to get our bags for that we were taking with us. Then we made our way down to Alexandra Palace. Me and Jess walked ahead once we go there and we joined the wrong queue at the beginning. We were stood there and then thin guy came up to us and went "Is this the wristband queue?" And he pointed to his writ band. So me and Jess had to find the right queue and it was so long. It went down the side of the building, round the back and near the park round the back. We got there at 10:30 and we were in the queue until 11:45 ish and it was moving very slowly. 

Once we finally made it near the doors our excitement was just too much. We had to get our bags checked and then we got our tickets scanned and got our wrist bands and then we got into the event. It was massive and so full of people. The first person we saw was Jason (Veeoneeye on YouTube) he was walking out of a room as we were walking in. We then went to Benjamin Cooks meet and greet and he is lovely. 

On the Saturday we didn't really know what to do so we only went to one meet and greet but wemet so  many smaller youtubers just waking around we met: 
Pete (petesjams) 
Luke (lukeslovinglife)
Sam (samkingftw)
Cherry (cherrywallis)
Evan (evanedinger)
Darcy (darcyjcole)
Doug (Doug)
Steve (stevebooker)
Ben (benbrown)
Tom (tomlaywood)
Brad (mrbradcorey) 
Marina (marinajoyce)
George (veguntold)
Oli (oliwhitetv)
Patty (pattywalters
Chai (mynameschai)
Sammy and niki (nikiandsammy)
Josh (jugginsjosh)
Dave (daveemons)

We also watched Emma Blackery perform as well as The Vamps perform so that was amazing as we had been to see the vamps the Friday before we traveled up to London (Friday 9th) and we were near the back so could see much but this time we got so close it was amazing.
And then it was unfortunately time to head back to the hotel for dinner. Every one we met that was so nice and so kind. And we got so many hugs :) when we got back to the hotel me and Jess were shattered to say the least. For dinner that night we just went to McDonald's, as we were just to tired to go any where else. After dinner we went back to our own hotel rooms. 

On the Sunday morning  it was our last day in London and at Summer In The City, but this time we learnt from our mistakes and went to breakfast at 8 am and we were at Alexandra Palace at 9 am, and the queue was already long. But luckily it was separated into two and we got to join the slightly shorter one. In the queue me and Jess met so really lovely girls and we spent most of the day with them. (Niamh and Maisie)

Once we got into the building and went through the security again, Niamh went rushing off to get a place in the jack and finn meet and greet. So the three of us had to go and find her. We finally found her  and joined her in the queue. We were in the queue for just over an hour, then we were finally just about to meet Jack and Finn, I was shaking. Jess went up before me and she high-fived them. I wa next and I went up there shaking like mad and Jack said in a kind of worried voice "are you okay?" Like I was about to faint. I was to nervous to ask for a high five so I just got photos. And again like everyone else they are so so kind.  

Next me and Jess went to find Marcus and Alfie's meet and greet,where was saw Niamh and Maisie we didn't know who they were queue for so we asked and it was Marcus and Alfie so me and Jess started to walk to the back of the queue when we got pulled back by Maisie and told to join them, which was so sweet and they honestly didn't have to do that at all. So after another hour of queuing we finally met Marcus and Alfie, this time I went before Jess so I wouldn't get nervous like before. Let me tell you they give the best hugs ever, and I felt so tiny compared to them. Marcus took my phone to take the pictures, he took a nice one of us all smiling and then a weird one of us pulling faces, they are so sweet and amazing. After Jess got her photo, I have to admit it we may have gone into a corner where no one was and we may have cried a little, it was just so amazing meeting the people you've watched on a screen and have inspired you to do so much stuff and you've finally met them in person. Words can not describe that feeling! 

Whilst queuing for Marcus and Alfie I was asking Jess if after this we could go and fine Niki and Sammy again so I could ask for a twin photo as on the Saturday we did one of all four of us and them one with Sammy and one with Niki. And as I said this they were walking near us and they remembered me from the day before, and I got my twin photo and we stood and talked for a while again, which was so nice and they didn't have to. 

As me and Jess were walking round to find people we say Gary C so we went and got a photo and an autograph and he asked for our names and he said "Diza that's a very Diva ish name" which made me laugh. 

We then went on a walk around and Jess was tweeting Ollie Martin, as we wanted to get a photo. We were tweeting him on Saturday but never saw him before we had to leave so the Sunday was our last chance and we finally found him and we were very apologetic about tweeting him and never finding him, but he said it was fine and laughed when we said we didn't want to interrupt if he was with his friends. So we had a nice chat and go a photo and a drawing from him. And them we went and watched Tom Law perform and it was amazing, and he was laughing at us for saying "woo" when he asked a question. 

We decided to go on one final walk before we had to leave to go home, we saw Carrie Fletcher selling her merchandise and we were going to queue up but there was a cut off point. So we just stood to the side as all I really wanted to do was give her a letter I had written to her and put my address in so she would reply to it and give advice. As she was waking off I went to her and handed the letter to her and she didn't have time for anything else. But I was so happy she took the letter. 

We made one last walk round before we had to go home. We tried to stay in there for as long as we could as it had an amazing atmosphere and we really didn't want to leave. As we were leaving Craig was meeting people so we said we will met him before we leave, and again her gives amazing hugs. So we got our photo and then we had to leave :( 

They travel home was very much like the one going there with the over turned car. But that's was it summer in the city was over :'( 

It was the best weekend I had ever had and I was it never had to end. It was the first Summer In The City I had ever been to, so I didn't know what to expect or anything it was an amazing experience and I would love to go again next year which me and Jess have already said we will be going :D
