This week

I've got a busy week ahead. Like the kinda of week where I'm too busy to blog. I promise though I will do a super extra long post next week telling you every inch of detail about my week (though I will probably schedule a monthly round-up around Wednesday and do a what's coming up in November next Saturday (So I guess that makes me able to blog this week?)).

Anyway I just thought I let you know.

P.S. Logo Competition has been extended to Friday.

My infoy-bio bit on Bloglovin

So most of you know I have Bloglovin'. Well I want to update my blog's profile on it. But before I post it, I want to see what you guys think of the blurb and if it suits this blog.

A blog all about a teen's life. Written by a Scottish girl.

Simple but sweet. Less is more.

So what do you think? How could it be improved? Does it fit the bill? Also would you like me to do an About page on the blog?

See you soon,

A little haul

So last Saturday it was my friend Lauren's birthday party and we went shopping then back to her's for tea so I thought I would do a haul of what I bought.

So the first item on the list is Zoella Beauty Soak Opera.
I bought it in Superdrug for £5. I would definitely recommend it as it smells really nice, it will probably last a while (then I'll go and buy some more) and I just love using it! I hope to buy more of her products in the future and that she releases some more products!

Next is a beanie out of Topshop

If you had to be restricted to one hat for the rest of your life, I would probably pick this one. It's just so comfy and trendy. From the moment I put on, my family haven't been able to convince me to take it off. LITERALLY. Everytime I now go out I wear it. For example I was washing my mum's car and I had old stuff on. Except my beanie. That's how much I love the hat. DO YOU UNDERSTAND?

So if someone asked me if this was a good hat I would say yes!!! It only cost £12 and I will probably wear all this winter and all next winter and so forth.

Last but not least I wouldn't be a good book lover if I didn't buy books. My local bookshop had buy one get one half price deal (go Waterstones!) so I bought


and...
I've only started reading The Maze Runner as I want to read the book then go and see the movie with my dad (he likes action movies, I like chick-flicks. The only type of movie we agree on is Hunger-games type). I also got a member card so I can build up my points and one day maybe buy a book for free.

I've also learnt how to reply to your comments so from this post on I will be. Let me know if you liked this mini haul and would like me to do more in the future!

P.S. There is still time to enter my logo competition. If you want to find out more then look at the post before this

Liebster Award

I was nominated for Liebster Award by the lovely Amy over at awkwarddonkey.blogspot.co.uk.
Basically how it works is that I tell you 11 facts about myself and  answer the questions Amy has asked me, then nominate 11 other bloggers.

So first of all I'll do the questions.


1. You're left alone in a room with Queen Elizabeth, John Green and Justin Bieber. What do you do?
I would set up the Queen and JB on a talk about JB's upbringing because I think that would be an interesting conversation. Then JG and I would talk endlessly about books!
2. What do you do on an average weekend?
My average weekend consists of hanging with mates and chillaxing. Nothing too special.
3. What's your favourite hot beverage?
Hot chocolate!!!
4. If someone offered you a trip to Antartica, but you couldn't take any of your own stuff and had to hope that they had food and water and electricity there, would you go?
It would depend on the person. If it was someone I trusted and knew I could rely on then I would go.
5. If you could be in anyones house right now, who's would it be?
MINE!
6. What do you want to be when you're older? Why?
A book editor. I have loved books since I can remember and I can't think of a better feeling than to know that you have helped someone achieve their dream. Plus loads of free books!
7. What would you do if you woke up and your whole family had disappeared?
Curl up and cry!!! Family is so important and I can't imagine life without them.
8. Are you the sort of person who can touch their toes?
I used to be able to touch my head with my toes in a weird stretching position. Does that count? Also I know people that can do it.
9. Do you watch Youtube? Of so, who do you watch?
 I LOVE IT. All I need in one website. Enough said
10. Rain or shine?
Shine. It makes everyone feel happy.
11. If you could wear one outfit for the rest of your life, what would it be?
I can't decide. It's like making me choose my favourite book! IMPOSSIBLE

Now for the nominations

Blog Update

Hi guys,

So I thought I'd tell you what's happening with this blog in the month to come.

1. Renaming & Logo Contest- As you can see I've decided to rename my blog. Reason being I felt the blog's post weren't really fitting in the name. So I talked to my friends about it and we came up with a name 'My Little Life'. Later on in the month I'm going to launch a logo competition as I A) can't find an image on Google 2) I want it to be unique and get you guys involved. So start drawing up your ideas!

2. Interviewing Authors : I can now safely say that I've secured a interview with an author. We're in the middle of me sending her my questions and she replying etc. Hopefully that will be up soon. I'm going to try and target other authors (If you have any suggestions feel free to pop them in the comments box).

3. Social Media: I plan to set up a Twitter and Bloglovin' account for my blog (I don't know how to link my blog to bloglovin'. If you have a blog and you do know how comment below.) I'll be creating a 'Contact Me' page once it's up and running

So yeah I think that's sums up what my blog changes are for this month. Also if you know how to reply to a comment, comment below.


See you,

Lucy xxx
