Pictures From My Prom

Pictures From My Prom

Okay, I have a confession to make. On my prom day, like the most exciting day ever, I was an awful blogger. I was in such a rush to get ready for prom after my speech day that I basically took no photos before Prom and by the time that I did start to take some photos it was half way through the night and I had been dancing so my makeup was slipping off my face and my hair was falling out! But anyway, a few people said they wanted to see some pictures from my Prom, so here are a few of them. Sorry that they are not very good quality or lighting but you do gt to see my dress, and isn't the dress the most important part of Prom anyway?! 

Me and my bestie

We each had to walk around the stage as they called our name! 

Jack and I 

The decorations in the marquee was so lovely

This guy is just the cutest!

Little close up of my dress so you can see the embellishments

Again with my favourite blonde!

I Won A Maths Prize...

I Won A Maths Prize...

The other day I received a letter in the post from my school saying that I was the chosen winner of a maths prize. On the 5th July, the same day as my leavers ball (a much more important event in my opinion!) I have my school speech day and my official leavers service. It's a smart event for students, parents and teachers on the Saturday morning in a large marque and there is a guest speaker, apparently he is famous but I can't even remember who! Some prizes are handed out to a few people in the year for different events or subjects or service to the school. I've only been at the school for two years and I'm not particularly musical or sporty or even smart in comparison to some of the people in my year, so never would I have imagined that I would get a prize!

I'm still not sure why I got a maths prize but this year I have been working much harder in maths and having extra sessions after school with my teacher to try and up my grade so maybe that is it. I'm just really excited and happy and I know it's only a little thing but to me it's really important. I'm not the sort of person that wins a lot of prizes so this means a lot.

Enclosed in the letter was an £18 bookshop gift card so yesterday I went to the bookshop with my mum to pick out a book that I then have to give back to the school for them to present to me on speech day. A bit random really! The requirements were a serious hardback book. This wasn't the most serious book in the bookshop but I wanted to pick something that I would actually read and not a massive intellectual book to make me look smart on the day but that I would never pick up again. I think this one looks really useful and it's filled with really important stuff about mortgaging a house, buying bonds and taking out a loan. All stuff that I know very little about but I'm sure will really help me in the future.

So now I'm even more excited for 5th July and hopefully it will be a really lovely day with my friends and family. Just hope that the weather will be nice now! xx

Spring Florals For School

Spring Florals For School 

It has finally started to feel like Spring is here and I am just so excited. And to celebrate my excitement I decided to bring out what I consider to be a "Spring" blouse for the first time this year! I bought this shirt last year from H&M for school as it is just so beautiful and just get me so excited for Spring and Summer. I love the floral print and how it is only on the sides and part of the sleeves which makes it more unusual. I'm not really one for anything too bright, I usually just stick to navy and grey which is a bit sad really, but this shirt was just so pretty that I couldn't resist.

This is a picture that I quickly took this morning before school. I wouldn't normally wear this skirt but my school  dress code is "smart business wear". It means I can get away with much more than other schools with much stricter uniform rules, but this is just one of my more smarter and longer skirts. I also paired my outfit with some daisy earrings to keep up with my floral theme!

But despite my efforts to get into that Spring mode it was all thrown back in my face by some very chilly weather! Typical England! So I will keep hoping and dreaming of Spring, but for now maybe I should go back to the snug winter coat! 

Apologies for the bad quality photos, I wake up very early and the lighting this morning was awful.
