Smiley Sunday - #100happydays day 58-64




Good Morning Beautiful :)

Guess who's Smiley Sundays post is late again ... yeah that would be me :/ sorry bout that :) I've just been feeling ill and been too busy to have time to feel ill which made me feel ill-er and now I'm having a pyjama day because being lazy can be nice sometimes :) I've had a pretty good week so here it is :) :

#100happydays: day 58 ( Monday )

Soo Monday :) Well I was having a not particularly fantastic day .. but then my boyfriend turn up at my house with flowers and Magic stars ( Best chocolate ever :D ) which just made everything feel lovely and just lots of smiles :)
Roses and Pinkie Promise's

#100happydays: day 59 ( Tuesday ) 

We're going on a bear hunt ;) Grrr
Well this was a lovely day :) I woke up and then went back to sleep for two hours in a different bed ... as you do ;) Then when me and my boyfriend finally got up we attempted to tidy and re-arrange my bedroom ... that didn't go particularly well so my best friend came over , we made some pizza and waffles, ate it on the trampoline because tables are clearly to mainstream ;) and then played "football" for a few hours .. another thing I can't do well aha but it was a laugh especially with my very professional Disney princess football XD Around five o'clock I had to get ready to go see a production of " The two gentlemen of Verona" at The Royal Shakespeare Theatre with my boyfriend and youth group :) I must say the performance surpassed my expectations and I would recommend this hilarious romantic comedy to anyone even if at first glance, Shakespeare does not seem like your cup of tea :) Additionally, as we were leaving the theatre I noticed a giant stuffed bear looming above me ( don't worry, it didn't eat me ;) ) but what really intrigued me was when I looked down at the sign of it's feet ( well paws ) which read " Please Don't Feed The Bear " and made me giggle so I just thought I'd share it with you :) 

#100happydays: day 60 ( Wednesday ) 

Urmmm how do I some up today ?  well I stayed in bed, wrote a blog, planned a blog, researched for blogs, ate pita bread pizza, went to my singing lesson and wrote another blog ... pretty normal day ... oh wait ! No it wasn't ! I got a kinder egg :D Do you want to know what's even better ? It had a toy car in it :D YAYYYYY .. okay I'm too excited about this for my age aha :) 

Come on though .. everyone loves a toy car ;) 



#100happydays: day 61 ( Thursday ) 

Today I felt down for no apparent reason but then I got a penpal in america which made me really happy because I LOVE writing letters because they're just so wonderful to send and to receive :) So I wrote our first letter which is hopefully the first of many and then treated myself to a milkyway out of a little shoe box of things to make me happy that a friend made me bless her :) <3 

Letter to the Stars :) <3 

#100happydays: day 62 ( Friday ) 

I love, love, love writing hopeful notes :) So today I went out with my friend and about fifty hopeful notes to cover our local town in them because it's so important to do things to make other people smile and I promise it will make you feel at least a lil bit better too <3 However the highlight of my day was a little odd .. but I still think it's incredabily worthy all the same :) Have you heard of "MashTags" These are possibly the coolest and yummiest things I have ever seen .. yes, I do intend to live off them :D 



#100happydays: day 63 ( SATURDAY ) 

By far today must have been one of the best days that I've had in a long time :) You know those days where you come home and can't stop smiling because you feel like you can fly and nothing and nobody will bring you down ( this is starting to sound like a reference to Wicked aha :) ) Well today I turned up at my best friend door with a basket of lolly pops, strawberry laces, Buenos and Daim bars as well as a bunch of flowers and when she opened the door it went like this ... 

Me : "Hello, I'm going to be your date for today :) Would you like to go on an adventure? " 
My Best Friend : " No." 
Me : " Oh .. well that's awkward " 

XD So after that fabulous start I lured her into the car with sweets to take her to an unknown destination ... great now I sound like a paedophile.. this isn't going very well is it aha :) This was all a birthday treat by the way aha . So we drove for about 45 minutes and then parked in a field and then walked for ages until she spotted a sign that said " Pet Show " ... this was followed by her making several comments such as : 

" Why the hell would I want to go here ? " 
and 
" Yeah, I would be really excited if I was six. " 

Then we went inside ... this was also followed by several comments including : 

" Oh my gosh ! This is the best birthday present ever ! " 
and 
" I love you so much ! "
and 
" This is so good :) Can we come again next year ? "

I think I might of proved her expectations wrong aha :) But we had an absolutely amazing day ! We held snakes, tortoises, took pictures of lizards.. *cough* and the hot boy holding the lizard *cough* aha :) But the highlight for me was when we went to get a crepe ... now I LOVE crepes so I ordered one with butterscotch sauce on, yummy ! :) Whilst the boys were cooking the crepe they were messing around and it wasn't until we had eaten the crepe that I realised they hadn't asked me to pay so i'd forgotten ... so I took them the money and they gave me a free crepe with chocolate sauce on for my honesty :) YAYYYY aha and with this in mind today's quote will be : 

“To believe in something, and not to live it, is dishonest.”

#100happydays : day 64 ( Sunday ) 

Carboot sale !!! I had a carboot sale and really enjoyed talking to all the strangers about the lovely weather and everyone was just so smiley , it was just .. happy :) In the evening me and my boyfriend watched " The Secret of Moonacre " because it's freaking awesome ... there's a black lion ... A BLACK LION ! :D 

If you haven't watched it then you should because its all magical and magic's awesome because then anything can come true ... we all have some magic inside you but you have to look at even glitter from the right angle to see it sparkle <3 But I promise you I can see your sparkle even if you can't :) Just Stay Strong <3 Stay Smiley :) and I promise if you look hard even from every single angle you will see the sparkle I see in you and oh my gosh it's worth the wait <3 

Much love, Love Much-ly

July Favourites :)

Heyyy :D 

Wow this month has gone fast ! I'm in such a good mood, it's such a lovely day :) I know that's irrelevant but I guess I feel like it's important to acknowledge what a beautiful day it is and that the world isn't actually all that bad :) I can't believe it's already time to write another favourites blog .. I mean I'm happy about it because I love writing at these because It leads you to think about your month and look for the good things but wow it's gone so so fast :) So without any further a do I guess we better get started :) 

Cinema :) 

I mentioned In my first "Smiley Sundays "  I went to see Mrs Browns Boys D'movie the other day at the cinema and it was hilarious :) It's a great pick me up if you're feeling down because you can't help but laugh .. and there's blind ninjas ... so you should go aha :) I really enjoyed the film, the plot line was interesting .. well anything involving Mrs Brown usually ends up rather interesting regardless ;) But watching her and her family fight to save her market stall whilst desperately searching for a solution to the very very large debt that she has inherited amongst uncontrollable laughter is definitely two hours well spent :) 



Books :) 

Usually I recommend three books that I have met throughout the month but unfortunately I only had time to read one book and I was reading another but its gone missing which is really annoying because it was getting to the good bit but this means I will only be able to recommend one book this month and I'm actually really sorry but I promise there will be three next month <3  however the book I did read was outstanding. I saw 'Breaking Butterflies' by M.Angelais on the top self in W.H.Smiths  when I was out with my friend .. The title attracted my attention because butterflies are a symbol to me and many people I know, of staying strong ( Type 'the butterfly project into google') so I'm automatically intiguied by anything to do with butterflies .. plus they're pretty aha :) But the blurb of the book gave nothing away .. and I mean nothing . So I started to read the first few pages of the book ... I understood what was going on, I was interested and really enjoying it ... but I still didn't know what it was about or where it was going . Then my birthday came and someone gave me the book as a present because they knew I wanted it, so I continued to read and I continued to enjoy the book and I continued to not know what it was about or where it was going literally until the last page . Then I understood that the book could not be explained only read, I can't tell you what it's about even the basic plot line without ruining the whole thing but I can tell you it's breath taking, it leaves you with your heart in your chest, filled with fear, confusion and every emotion you never even knew you had <3 I loved this book and I'm sure you will love it too so please read it because it's absolutely amazing and if you have or when you have please let me know what you think in the comments :) 

Song :) 

I was planning to say my favourite song for this month is Little Bird by Ed Sheeran and you should definitely check it out because it puts me in a good mood .. it's sort of the song you want to listen to when your feeling all loved up :) But then yesterday I heard one a song written by a YouTuber who's channel is called DoddleOddle called a 'A permanent hug from you ' it's just really sweet and cute and makes me feel all warm and snuggly inside <3 Plus Dodie Clark ( DoddleOddle) is such a talented singer and she sings it as a duet with Tessa Violet which is absolutely gorgeous , they're both such wonderful young women :) 



Clothing :)
Cutest design Ever !!! :D 

it's too hot for clothes. next !

Just kidding aha :) It is really warm though haha ... I'm not sure i'm at the point of wanting to become a nudest yet though ;) This month I'm absolutely loving the clothing being made by the woman behind a twitter account called @againstsuicide they do such good work and you should definitely follow them and check out her clothes and I am in love by the motivational Penguin top ;) i will definitely be buying this :) You can buy it by clicking here <3

Etsy :) 

This won't be the first time I've mentioned just how much I love and am completely obsessed with 'Looking for Alaska' By John Green but I've found the cutest notebook on Etsy :) You can find it here :) 






Website :)

As a result of my never ending love of Carrie Hope Fletcher and her YouTube channel 'ItsWayPastMyBedTime' I was lead to DFTBA to buy her merch ( I'm always wearing my hopeful top and my signed poster is my pride and joy aha ... but the fact i don't yet have the mug does make me feel a little sad ) but then I found tons of merch for all the things I love including John Green's stuff :) My top three things from there are : 
ProdIMG
Want <3
ProdIMG
I love these posters :) 

ProdIMG
They do indeed ;) <3

Blog :)

CARRIE HOPE FLETCHER HAS STARTED BLOGGING AGAIN !!! YAYYYYYYYYYY :D 
urmmm so yeah I'm pretty damn happy about this aha :) Carrie has a blog called All I Know Now  Which is amazing I've been absolutely loving her posts about things that make her happy :) You should definitely check it out :) 

YouTube :) 

Thoughts and Nonsense is a really creative Channel where the girl who makes the videos doesn't actually appear in the videos but writes down what she want's to get across in her notebook in loads of different awesome styles of writing :) They're are really impressive and unique and she deserves way more subscribers than she has so it would be really great if you'd go have a look :) 

Five Good things That Happened This Month :) 

This is a new section that I'm adding because I think it's important to reflect on the good things that happened so that you can see the best in life so here we are : 

1) It was my birthday :) I had such a lovely day and wear my TFIOS necklace everyday .. also I had a caterpillar cake .. yeah ! I'm that cool ;) aha .
2) I've spent two days so far this holiday covering towns in hopeful notes and my hopeful notes blog post should be up at some point next week :) 
3) My friend answer the door to a poor delivery man in her underwear thinking it was only  her nan... I almost died of laughter when she told me XD
4) I went to see "The Two Gentleman of Verona " at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre with my youth group and despite being slightly unsure of going I actually really enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone :) 
5) WE BROKE UP FOR SUMMER ! WOOO :D
