Belated Birthday.

This is a (very) belated birthday blog post! Ooops!

I turned the ripe old age of 25 on the 4th November, and it was amazing.
I started off the celebrations on Thursday 3rd November by going to see Britney Spears at Newcastle Arena. I'd love to say I saw her live, but I don't think I can as she mimed! It was still amazing though!


I got home to find my birthday bedding on my bed ready for sleep :)
Love Cath Kidston - and love that this is from the children's range which is called "Cath Kids" ha. (If you're wondering that owl is my 'hottie' and I've named it Eglantine after the cute little owl in The Legends of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole)

When I woke up as a 25-year-old I opened my cards etc off my family and then decided to get stuck into my presents off Jenny (and Max). I met Jenny two days before my birthday and was so excited as they were wrapped up so nicely :D
YEY!

 She even made me this brilliant card! So lovely!

I then went volunteering at GVOC (I'm a teaching assistant, helping adults with learning disabilities) and they sang me Happy Birthday :)

I got home to an unidentified parcel. Well, I knew it was off my good friend Lucy (and Harry) as Lucy text me saying she forgot to put the card in. Haha.
There is a lovely owl necklace from Forever 21 and some other great bits and bobs :)


I also had a little parcel and card from my very dear friend Billie who is currently in Berlin (Hi Bill!). It's a lovely hand-made tissue holder in owl fabric :D

I then got ready as I went out for my tea to Jack Sprats in Newcastle with my parents, best friend Hayley and neighbour Yvonne.
I didn't take any photos of the food, so here is a photo of my birthday nails.



The next day was obviously bonfire night. I changed my nails to look like fireworks, but apart from turning out to be a big mess I don't have any photos as my laptop died a few days later so I don't have that pic anymore. Sob.
I had some lovely cakes by Ms. Cupcake. My dad had been to London a couple of weeks prior and came home with 12 cakes (6 for then and 6 to freeze for my birthday weekend). I had a rose cupcake on my birthday, but we ate our way through these on the Saturday.

SO good!


On Saturday night, after spending all day getting ready and still ending up in a rush(!!) me and Hayley went to town to meet some other friends and had a very eventful, but enjoyable night.
Here are some photos.


Me and Jenny in Bar 42. 

Photo of the night is probably this one of me and Lowell (also in Bar 42).




Sorry I haven't posted for a while and then gave a short post, but like I said before my laptop died. Its a bit of a nightmare trying to blog on my slow, small netbook. Also tomorrow I'm going to a blogger meet up and then Hanson (don't ask) so I need to get to sleep!

Green festival necklace haul.

Today I went to the Green Festival in Newcastle. It's the first time for a couple of years that I've been able to go as I've been in London for the past three summers (and it wasn't on one year).

At the moment, I'm drinking apple vodka and listening to jlo while telling my friend Hayley (who's ALWAYS late) to hurry up with her makeup. I bet I'll post this blog post before she's ready.....

Speaking of Hayley, she's staying at my house for 2 weeks at the moment and as a thank you she bought us all a little treat. She kindly bought me this necklace (which I'm wearing tonight).


It was £6 at the "Dolls & Molls" store.

(Now we're listening to "pitbull & neyo" :s)

I bought myself this necklace.....I had to really!



(The bottom picture is the back of the owl)
It cost me £8, but was hand made by the lovely girl who sells them at www.dollbox.co.uk there was different colours/fabrics.

Enjoy!
