The Dream Tag

(photo from google)

This tag was floating around the internet a while ago and I have to be honest I have hit a bit of a “writers block” therefore I thought I would do another tag post. I enjoy answering questions and these are super easy to do when you have no time whatsoever. I have a show in less than two weeks so everything is a bit hectic at the moment but I wanted to put up a post anyway. I am a dreamer and always have been. I always find myself dreaming of the secret life I wish I had.

 

1. What are you currently day dreaming about?

Florida, I’m going back to my second home in July and I cannot wait. I’m dreaming of walking down Main Street, MK with a huge smile on my face, dreaming of meeting all the characters and having just a great time. I’m dreaming of being free and not having to worry or stress out because stress doesn’t exist in Disney World

2. What three items live in your dream wardrobe?

A pair of Christian Louboutin, I think they are every girls dream tbh. A white midi tutu skirt, something I probably couldn’t pull off even if I tried but I love them and they look so classy if paired with a nice top and heels. The last thing would be a Prada handbag, I just think they look so classy and have always wanted to own one.

3. Who's your dream celeb look-alike?

There isn’t really an celebs that I would love to look like if I’m completely honest.

4. In your eyes, who's currently "living the dream"?

I think those who are actors full time are living the dream whether that’s on stage or film or tv. I hope that one day I will be one of those people. Also those who are currently in a production on Broadway, that’s would just be amazing!!

5. What do you dream of more; love or money?

I get that money doesn’t buy you anything but it would solve a lot of my problems in life if I didn’t constantly have to worry about my finances. Love is something I guess everyone wants, myself included but these days money is an essential and you don’t get very far without it. I guess I would say I dream a lot more about money than I do love.

6. Your dream holiday escape?

Of course, Florida but I would love to go back to New York and explore everywhere I did not get a chance to. I love would love to do a road trip around America. I’m not one for wanting to go to places like the Caribbean or anything like that.

7. Who's your dream YouTuber collab?

I’m not a youtuber therefore I don’t have an answer for that but if I were I would love to collab with Miranda Sings.

8. Did your childhood dreams ever come true?

Yes they actually did, my ultimate dream was going to Disney and I got the chance in 2005 and my other dream I’m living just now. Acting full time was always a dream and its currently what I’m doing with my life.

9. If one of your dreams could come true right now, what would it be?  

To get into HND next year. It all depends on my show in two weeks and my graded unit so fingers crossed.

 

Thank you for reading and I realised I mentioned Disney way too many times but I’m addicted to Disney so too much isn’t really a problem to me.

5 Great Things About My Week!!

(Image source)

Hello everyone!!

I thought I would do a different kind of blog post today and tell you 5 things that have been great this week;

Rehearsals  -  This year for my final production at college we have took on "4:48 Psychosis" by Sarah Kane which we will be performing in 16 days which is not too long away but this week it finally has came together. We only have a few more scenes to finalise and then we are good to go which is amazing considering how tough a year we have had.

New Lecturer - a week ago, my college got a new lecturer who has taken over my voice classes and he is amazing. There is something about him that I really like, and he really cares about not only my class but also the work we are doing. He gives great advice and I feel like if I had him from the start of the year college may have been that little bit better. I think Friday was one of my favourite days at college so far and there have been many good days.

Juice Detox - I found a Glasgow based Juice Company that specialises in a Juice Detox and decided to try out a 3 day one this week. Everything about it I loved (apart from not getting my third day on time which I'm not too happy about as it meant I couldn't finish the Detox) it made me feel like I had been wiped out from all the badness.

New Clothes - I purchased a lot of new clothes this week and I think I had a delivery every single day, which made me very happy as I never get mail. I felt my wardrobe needed updating even though most of the stuff I bought was plain black for college.

My College Friends - I have a few close friends that I have known all throughout my school years but my college friends are just amazing!! From the very first day as a whole class, we connected and this week has just been another great week with them. It is as though we have known each other our whole lives and I will miss them all dearly when things change next year.

1. 1. I hope you enjoyed hearing about the top 5 things that made my week great!!

The Netflix Tag

(photo from google)

Hello everyone!!

So it’s been over a month now since I last put up a blog post which I am feeling slightly annoyed at myself for not sticking to regularly uploading. It’s been a hectic last few weeks with auditions and rehearsals therefore blogging hasn't really been my top priority. Today I thought I would upload a tag that I have seen floating around lately which is the Netflix tag. I have gotten back into watching Netflix in the last week or so and thought this tag would be an appropriate post to upload.

 

All Time Favourites

I love Orange is the New Black. I have rewatched a handful of times and love it I really enjoy going back and watching the first two seasons of Skins (another of my favourite shows)

Current Addiction

I watched Ugly Betty while it was on TV but rekindled my love for it a week ago and cannot get enough of it. Reminds me a lot of the Devil Wears Prada, which is a film I like a lot.

Wishlist

I wish I could watch Saved by the Bell even though I have the full box set I sometimes cannot be bothered getting up to get the disks. If there was a section for 90s, TV programmes my life would be 10x better.

Net Peeve 

The US and Canadian versions are so much better than the UK version which irritates me as I do not find that very fair. Just because we are the UK doesn't mean we don’t deserve a wider variety. Another thing is how long it takes for a new episode/season to go up on Netflix, I feel as though I've been waiting years for the new season of Orange is the New Black.

Marathon Essentials

 A nice comfortable place to sit/lie, I like to watch Netflix on my bed with either my duvet or my cosy Primark blanket. Snacks are must whether they are healthy or not, I loving banana chips at the moment. Another key essential is time, you can’t settle down to watch a large amount of a show if you have something planned.

You Should Watch

For sure Orange is the New Black, I never get hooked to programmes but this one was an exception. There is nothing else I can really think of that I would really recommend.

Christmas Excitement!!

Do you ever just get so festive and excited about Christmas you can't contain yourself? Well that has been me this week; suddenly I got this feeling about how excited I was about Christmas. Over the last few years, I have not gotten this feeling and was beginning to think the spirit of Christmas had disappeared and the true meaning of Christmas was lost but not this year. I can officially say I think I am done with my Christmas shopping this year (which is a first) unless I truly want to spoil people this year. I have been singing Christmas songs non-stop and have bought a few festive jumpers. The only thing I have not done yet is put my decorations up but only two more days for me and then I can get my tree up and things. This year is the first year in a while that I can truly go out on Christmas presents for people and not worry about money problems, which has been lovely. It is also the first year that I have had a job therefore I have experienced Christmas shopping from behind the scenes in a way, dealing with other peoples shopping problems rather than my own. Next week is the last week of college of 2014 and I am so ready for a little break, it’s been a crazy experience the last few months but I need to relax for a while. I cant wait to finish up so I can probably get into wrapping presents and doing some festive baking/crafts. I am planning on making some cookies and cupcakes with my little cousins then hopefully making some clay baubles for their tree. I have planned a full day for us to do exciting things but knowing me something will come up and I will not get round to doing it. The purpose of this post is to really say how exciting the festive season is for me this year and I hope that every year will be like this. I also wanted to break up my posts before I post another Christmas tag post. I know tags are repetitive on my blog but when I have been as busy as I have been trying to get posts up has been a difficult task therefore tags are easy to put up. Once I have finished from college though I’ll have a little more time to put that extra bit of effort into my posts.

Thanks for reading & I hope you have a lovely day!!

The Fairytale Tag

Hello everyone!! I have seen the fairytale tag go about for a little while now and decided since I'm a huge Disney fan I would do it.

Snow White - Do you consider yourself beautiful?

I would say I'm far from it but maybe I shouldn’t put myself down like that haha.

Sleeping Beauty - How many hours do you sleep at night?

Depends on how tired I am!! I normally get around 6-8 hours per night sometimes less, sometimes more.

Cinderella - Do you have a curfew?

Nope. If I'm out I don't tend to say out that late anyway and normally I'm home before 3am. I am not one for saying out all night.

Rapunzel - Do you love being outside?

Yeah, I love being outdoors. There is so much more to see and do when you are outside. I love exploring and travelling so being inside is boring for me and I get fed up easily.

Red Riding Hood - Do you trust strangers easily?

No, I find it hard to trust people who are not strangers. I guess it’s due to growing up my parents were really strict on the whole don't talk to strangers thing.

The Wolf and the Seven Young Kids - Are you easily fooled?

Nah, its way too hard to fool me.

Beauty and the Beast - What makes someone beautiful in your eyes?

I think everyone is beautiful in his or her own way and for different reasons. No one is the same therefore there is not one type of beauty.

The Little Mermaid - What would you sacrifice for love?

If I loved someone that much I would pretty much sacrifice anything for them. Again, with the whole trust thing I would need to really love them and trust them 100% for me to give up something.

The Frog Prince - What do you find disgusting?

Disrespectful and selfish people really disgust me. 

Jack and the Beanstalk - Do you have any plants?

Not really, my dad has quite a few dotted around the house but plants are not really for me. They look pretty once they have bloomed but I don't really have the time to look after them

Puss in Boots - Do you have pets? If not, do you want them?

I have one dog, a Staffordshire bull terrier, Sasha who I LOVE to pieces!!! She is like my best friend and I honestly don’t know what I would do without her. My dad also has a lot of fish, one I was rather close with, Terry, but it died. I would love another dog either a French Bulldog or Pug or both.

Bluebeard - What is your weak point?

Trust. I find it so hard to trust people and I recently wrote an essay for my first semester at college about myself in outcome one and discussed my issues with trust. Being an actor, trust is something you have to have with not only who you are working with but the people you are presenting in front of. It can be sometimes hard to deal with because it puts a barrier in front of me making me not perform to my full potential.

Pinocchio - What is your biggest wish?

Of course many people wish to win the lottery and I'm one of them, a little extra cash would be lovely. I would also love to do a road trip around America and go back to Florida (one of my all time favourite places). I want to make my family proud by achieving my dreams of becoming a full time actor.

Peter Pan - What is your mental age?

I think it’s probably around 8. Most of the time I act like a child but I do know when to be serious. I LOVE having fun therefore acting like a child is completely fine by me just most people think I'm crazy!!

The Star Money - What is your most valuable possession?

My DSLR, it is my baby. I have such a passion for photography and love taking it with me on adventures to capture everything I see.

The Snow Queen - Who is your best friend and what would you do for him/her?

I would probably say my older sister (I may not be hers but I don't mind). She is one of the very few people who can make me laugh till I almost wet myself. I honestly don't know what I would do without her, despite our arguments we have such an amazing bond and I would do anything for them.

The Princess and the Pea - Are you sensitive?

I can be but I tend to hide behind a shield and just laugh things off.

Godfather Death - What qualities make a good parent?

As long as you are loving and patient you can be a good parent.

The Worn-Out Dancing Shoes - Do you like parties?

I like them to a certain extend, sometimes when I'm in the partying mood it can be fun but other times I just can't be bothered. Most parties get a lil boring if the music is rubbish or the atmosphere is not great.

The Emperor's New Clothes - Do you care a lot about your clothing?

Not really, fashion is not really my strongest point. Don't get me wrong I love looking at pretty outfits and wearing beautiful dresses but most of the time if I'm comfy then I'm all good to go.

The Brave Little Tailor - Do you consider yourself brave?

Yeah, I would say I am fearless! I have not ever found anything I'm scared of so yeah I would consider myself brave.

Thanks for reading & hope you do it as well!!

Halloween Room Decorations

(excuse the mess)

Hello everyone!!

Lately I have been on the hunt for some Halloween decorations to decorate my room with and I found a lot of great things in various places. I found the best places to go to were B&M, poundland/world & Wilkos, they have such a great selection. I decided this year unlike previous years that I really wanted to spice up my room, I do have some more decorations to go up but need to find the time to put them up. The bats and spiders were meant to glow in the dark but you have to have them up close to your eyes to see them glowing so in my opinion they aren't so great. 

I hope you enjoyed seeing what decorations I have put up in my room!!

Halloween Themed Clothing Items

Hello everyone!

Halloween is one of my favourite times of the year and I have been browsing lately on the hunt for some Halloween themed t shirts/jumpers to wear and decided to share them. The first one combines my love of both Disney and Halloween; it is a black jumper with a silhouette of Mickey Mouse holding a pumpkin. The next is a short sleeve black top with a glow in the dark skeleton on the front, I got a similar one to this last year from Primark and wear it all year round. The next is definitely the cutest and it is a white top with a cute little cat with bat wings saying, "BOO!” The orange jumper saying, "BOO!" is from ASOS and looks so warm and cosy; I love how bright it is as well. The ghost one makes me chuckle a little bit as it is a spin of the saying "if you've got it, flaunt it" only it is in the theme of Halloween. I threw the socks in because they are super cute and you can never have too many pairs of socks. I am now off to purchase one of two of these despite having no money. 

I hope you enjoyed seeing some Halloween themed clothing items. I am hopefully going to be putting some baking posts up sometime in the next week or so as I have this week off college so will have plenty of time to do so!

The Not Another Tag

Hello everyone!! I've seen recently a bunch of people doing the “The Not Another Tag” and if you have read my blog for a while you will know I'm a girl who loves doing tags. I find them so easy to do and I really enjoy seeing people’s answers so I hope you enjoy. Even though I wasn't tagged to do this I still want to. The tag was started by Hayley and I thought the questions looked fun to answer.

The Rules

You must include both myself & the person who tagged you in your post (and the rules too). 

Once you've answered all your questions you need to tag 5 people.

Also if you tweet me the link to your post (@teapartybeauty) I will RT. 

If you are tagged & don't do the post you will have bad luck for 68.5 years. FACT. 

You've made it BIG & bagged some VIP Fashion Week tickets. You lucky devil you. But in your rush to get there & get yourself noticed you forgot your VIP Passes. The guy on the door says he will cut you a deal, you can go in only if you sacrifice either your Front Row seat, backstage privileges or goody bag. What's it gonna be? 

I would give up the front row seat because I would still get the goodie bag and freebies is what I live for.

You're making a new Subscription box, what 4 items & which dreaded perfume sample would you include in it? 

I would probably put in some fun nail polish colour maybe a neon pink one or something.I would put in some hand cream and maybe a lip balm because those are something everyone needs and for my last item, I would put in some sort of coffee flavoured chocolate because that combines two of my favourite things. For perfume I would probably go for Taylor Swift Wonderstruck, it smells nice and the bottle is pretty as well.

What's your biggest blogging bug bear? The one thing guaranteed to make your blood boil & have you screaming/eye rolling at your laptop?

I hate those people that follow you just so you will follow them back then if you do follow them they unfollow you. It annoys me when people comment on one of your posts saying “come check out my blog, I have a giveaway going on at the moment”

No more joining in Twitter chats only slightly relevant to your blog. You can only join in one blogger chat a week for the rest of your blogging days, which one's it gonna be & why? 

I don’t participate in the blogger chats and I know I should because they always look great and everyone says how much fun they are but I either miss them or just prefer watching.

'Fess up, do you actually own any MAC? If so what don't you like about the product? 

Yes I own one Mac lipstick in Cockney and it’s my favourite all time lipstick, its just such a pretty colour and love how it looks on my lips. I own a couple of Mac eye shadows, a blush from the Betty Bright collection (its so pretty) and Mac fix+.

The blogging Gods ban arm swatching, which body part will you swatch on now?

My cheeks, I think I would look amazing if I had a bunch of swatches on my cheeks.

You can no longer have Yankee Candles & Perfume Bottles in the background of your shots, what other inanimate object will you choose?

My clapper board to look as if I’m a movie or something like that.

Your blogs Instagram is it for cats or meal shots?

Meal shots, although I haven’t posted one in a while so I’ll have to go out for dinner shortly.

I tag

Thank you for reading & even if you aren’t tagged it is still fun to do.

What I Have Been Pinning!!

Hello everyone!! I thought I would do another "What I have been pinning?". I really enjoyed doing the last one I did and I'm thinking of making it a thing on my blog even if I do it once a month?

Being a major WWE fan this shocked me. I've heard that before retiring the Undertaker wanted his Wrestlemania streak to be broken and supposedly in 2010 he chose Brock Lesnar to do it. For anyone who watched Wrestlemania on Sunday night/Monday morning will have been as shocked as me, for the streak to be broken in the way it did has crushed mine and the WWE universe's hearts but the legend will never die.

On a happier note, these cupcakes are so cute. I made easter cookies on Sunday but I may have to make these rather soon (or similar).

 How pretty are these nails? Perfect for Spring!!

 I have been lusting over some midi skirts lately. This outfit is rather pretty but I don't think it would suit me very well.

 The colour of these running shoes is perfection <3

This may be one of the cutest pictures I have ever seen.

Thank you for reading & I hoped you enjoyed seeing some of the photos I have pinned. Remember to check out my pinterest which you can find here.
