Xmas and the New Year!

Hello My Nutella-Covered-Crepes,

Like i said previously, this is my last post so I'll make it considerably longer but make the most of it ;)

This is going to be all about maximising the Christmas Period through to the New Year...

First Off, Pinterest is the D.I.Y haven and can't be replaced (sorry Tumblr). There are also plenty of videos on YouTube as well to help you get started on some cute bunting of general ornaments and decorations, but another christmassy thing you can always make is delicious food. Me, being a chocolate and sugar connoisseur, loves general baking and construction of a gingerbread house, so surprise your family and whip up something tasty in the kitchen, I'm 110% they'll appreciate it, unless you burn the house down of course ;)

Another thing that should be thought about early is Resolutions. Now, I cannot keep to the traditional goals like cutting out sugar, doing more exercise etc. so, this year/next year, I have decided to do things that I know are possible in my individual lifestyle and are also things that I WANT TO DO. These are the three that I've chosen:

  1. Attempt Italian - I have always wanted to go to said Italy and I thought it was appropriate to learn the basics.
  2. Learn to Juggle - This seems like such a cool thing to do, you can be like "Just gonna whip out my balls..." and absolutely boss it.
  3. Be nicer - I can be a bitch sometimes and I want to cut out my swearing and generally be kinder to people in my class, at home, everyone I know. This should be the easiest.
I know that the first two seem a bit weird and I bet you, the one reader, have never heard anyone say that those were their resolutions for 2017. £20 says you haven't.

A  goal I thought about (I didn't add it because you are allowed 3 or 5 goals not 4 so yeah) was being more open to new ideas, the Internet, more people and in life, generally. New foods could be an example, I have quite bland taste-buds and it didn't help that for 11 years of my life, I couldn't have egg, which, back then, everything had egg in! I don't like most meats as well, not chicken not fish not turkey (but I force it down me at Christmas) howeverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, I do like beef and pork so yeah, I'm not that shallow.

To finish things off, get outside everyone. Don't spend your life sitting inside when there is everything else just waiting for you to find it. Go Travel. Go Explore. Or just GO MEET YOUR FRIENDS. Do anything that isn't binging YouTube, finding yourself on the wrong side of the Internet, or seeing disturbing things on Omegle. Live life (you only have one). Wow, that got deep.

Thank you, the one reader, for being here with me for this extremely short blogging ride and I'll see you later, alligator.


Peace out,

Just a Fangirl aka Hannah xxx

P.S. Read the last post to see my short goodbye :(
P.P.S. Have a very merry Christmas and an amazing New Year! {insert fireworks here}


Silent Night...

Sup peeps,

Once again, it's been a long time since i've blogged and I just can't do it :(

I've run out of ideas and always forget to upload a new post.

There is literally no-one reading this anyway so I am going to do one last blog (my next one) and then that's it, I won't be deactivating it, I just won't be on it until further notice.

Sorry, you the one reader, if you liked it while it lasted, thank you, but this just isn't going to work out. It's not you its me (hehehe)

See ya soon,

A few secret obsessions...


Hello! I am a completely normal person! (Ish).

Notice anything different, one reader? No, I haven't changed the font, okay maybe I have but I like this one so I'm going to use it whether you like it or not (tell me in the comments, one reader). I am completely off-topic, this post was meant to be about my weird obsessions and things that people are like what the hell are you?!?!?! I shall list and explain a few in a formal and snazzy-looking bullet points.

  • I like to collect postcards
When I go on holiday, I don't buy postcards to send to some loving relatives, hell nah! I keep them all to myself mwahahahahahaha! They are all kept in a photo album-majigy that lets me look fondly over times I have spent with my family in France, America, the Paperchase in BlueWater and Harry Potter Studios (OMG YASSSSSSSSS).

  • I LOVE Harry Potter (a lot)
To my friends, this may be no secret (*winks at someone, they know who they are*), but not many people know it generally, weird, I thought the shrine would have given it away...I'm joking! But I do have a little section in my cupboards where I keep my HP stuff like Harry Potter and The Cursed Child which, can I just say, is absolutely amazing and fulfilled prophecies in my head that were meant to be fulfilled! Shame the show tickets all sold out, ugh.

  • I LOVE Marmite (also, a lot)
Previously mentioned in other blog posts, you, the one reader in the entire universe, know this fact and I wouldn't be surprised if it was drilled into your brain forevermore. People say that you wither love it or you hate it and I definitely most entirely love it along with the Marmite crisps, Marmite chocolate, do I need to go on, although, the Marmite rice cakes are rank and I love rice cakes so, again, ugh.

  • My ICT skills are AMAZING (HECK NO THEY AREN'T)
I just wanted to bring you onto the last thing I wanted to say...I need your help on whether or not I should have a logo, specifically the one below. I said before that it would look cool but it leaves like five lines gap space so I don't know, I like the design but I want your opinion, the one reader. Help me I'm stuck, once again, ugh.





Have a brilliant day, to you, the one reader,

Hannah, out xxx

Justin Bieber has something to say...

Okay....so.....I may or may not have not posted a blog in like, over a million months, and on behalf of me, the big JB has something to say...SORRY...

I really am. From the bottom of my heart or just in this little blog document I am writing presently. I am truly very sorry. I even had to look back over my first post to see how I started and finished a regular post, whilst looking over it, I saw something that has come SOOOOOO true it's unreal, I shall quote it momentarily...

"I will never know when I will blog, but I will aim to do at least one a week" What absolute TOSH! I blogged for a little while and took like, a five month vacay, smoooooooth.

So, as I was saying, I was looking over posts and, well, I want to revamp my blog style, change what I write about, maybe get a logo and hopefully figure out how to change what my blog looks like because I am no tech guru even though I am thirteen and should be 'with the generation' (if you know...HELP). Although what won't be changing is firstly, Marmite (obvs) and secondly...that I am still not A BEAUTY PERSON so again I shall not be doing 'School Beauty Essentials' or any 'March Make-Up Favs' so deal with it to put it bluntly.

Anyways I shall not be having another million month holiday and if I do leave again, I shall back it up with perfectly good reasoning...*sniggers*

Have an amazing day, to you, the one reader,

Hannah, out xxx

Rise and Revise

Hello again!

Sorry for not uploading in a while but here's why...Now, in a few days, I have some quite important exams coming up and I know this is such a normal post (and I think that I have established that I am not normal) but I wanted to share some of my best tips on how to survive the whole process.

1. Pick a playlist
While I revise I always listen to music in the background. One thing to remember is that you shouldn't really pick songs that you know every single word to *laughs nervously* because you will get distracted. Another thing, don't play the songs too loud because you won't be able to hear yourself think! I use Spotify so I can choose any song I want and when I do find one I like, for revision, it's usually a chill song rather than an extremely loud pop ballad with a really upbeat chorus. Listening to music helps me not get bored of what I'm doing and kind of keeps me concentrated for longer. Weird.

2. Just like Flash
This seems like exactly what teachers tell you to do. Make flash cards. I do enjoy making them though because I like to make them all pretty using felt tips and glitter pens. Wow I have not grown up. Also, I stick them everywhere in my house so that while I'm doing all of my normal (more or less) activities, I'm revising at the same time. I stick them with blu-tack on my mirror so I can learn about WW1 and WW2 whilst brushing my hair, repeat French verbs whilst brushing my teeth and knowing what a the Buddhism sacred text is called whilst watching Dance Moms. Take note people.

3. Kahoot
Kahoot is this cool website where you can make your own quiz for different subjects and you can let all of your friends play too. Although this is really good for revising because it's drilled into your brain more (not literally but you know what I mean) I sometimes use it for other things e.g. The other day, one of my close friends made a YouTube quiz which was really fun and you can play Kahoot quizzes on your laptop or your phone/iPad. Give it a try.

4. Scented Sleeping
Every night before and exam or if I'm just stressing I spray a bit of L'Occitane Brume D'Oreiller Pillow Mist over my bed and it soothes you and relaxes tou. Obviously you don't have to go out and buy that you could just use your favourite smell and just spray it on your pillow. Anyhow, it works a charm and I use it every year, for my 11+ and my Year 7 End of Year Exams.

Finally, relax. Take a chill pill and just sit back. Obviously make sure you are prepared but don't stress too much. I hope this post has helped you in any way. Thanks for reading.

Let's Go To The Movies!

Hello again!

This blog post was inspired by me watching one of my all time favourite movies yesterday. I decided to tell you (the one reader) about my picks and will be choosing my top 7 (I know it's meant to be top 5 but I can't narrow it down). This post will probably be a bit longer than the last and I just wanted to say that none of these are in order, they are just what I thought of at the time. So let's get started...

1. JUMANJI (1995)

This was the movie that I said I watched yesterday. I know this movie is really old and has dated animation and was made before I was born. But, it just is really good, I don't know if it's because I wish I was there or something like that. This stars the late Robin Williams who I adored so much for all of his impressions and role in Mrs Doubtfire.

This has been one of my most precious childhood memories and when I saw this on the list of recorded movies I was like: "I have to watch this right now." I have always wished that I could have the game board for this but without all of the monkeys and lions and mosquitoes obviously!





2. The Hunger Games Series (2012-2015)

The Hunger Games has been the actual best series I have ever laid my eyes on. I love the plot-line and the main love story. I am actually glad that Katniss chose Peeta over Gale (spoiler alert) because Liam Hemsworth is MINE.

My favourite movies in this series are the second and last and, although they missed out two whole characters in the second one, THEY ARE LIFE AND SHOULD BE PRAISED AND WORSHIPPED ERMAHGERD...

Anyways, J-Law is one of my most favourite actors/actresses (after The Hemsworths and Chris Pratt, obvs), I think she did a really good job and for like 4 years, I literally wanted to be an archer and know how to shoot arrows really well *nervous laughs and rubs back of neck*.

I really need to stop fangirling *slaps wrist, regrets what I just did and tries to make it up to my wrist*.






3. Grown Ups (2010 & 2013)


I must admit that I like the first Grown Ups much more than the second but these two movies had me crying by the time I was finished, it was so funny!

I love any movie that has Adam Sandler in anyway (which you will see at one of my other favourites). This movie will leave you in stitches and I could say that it might be one of the most hilarious movies ever.

For people that have Netflix, both of the movies are on there at your disposal. I don't have Netflix myself (I know right!) but I know this from my best friend.

This is a 12 so if you happen to be under, then I wouldn't really recommend it. However, this is a movie that you can watch with your parents and both laugh at.




4. Joe and Caspar Hit The Road (2015)

Again, this is also a 12 so yeah, but this is actually like my favourite movie ever. I'm a MASSIVE YouTube fan and I had to put this in here.

Joe and Caspar are two of my most favourite YouTubers, after Zoe and Alfie, they are royalty - obvs. This was a hilarious movie and I loved every second. I've always wanted to go to Italy anyway so the fact that they went, helped me see what it was like there.

I think that this movie was really well-made and was worth the wait. Later this year, Jaspar are going to be making a second movie about them touring America instead of Europe. I highly recommend this movie to anyone and everyone. Even if you're not really into YouTube, this will still leave you gripping your sides.



5. Harry Potter series (2001-2011)

Well, what can I say? This could possibly be on of the best series ever? Do I even need to recommend this? You must have seen them all anyway, right? Or is it just me?

This is an amazing series that deserves every award it has ever got. Emma Watson, Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint pulled off an amazing performance and they just moved you.

In the last few, it does get more scary, for younger people. For me, I didn't get scared but I did jump a few times, some movies are like that.

Obviously, some people will like this more than others but if you haven't seen any of these movies yet than you should as soon as possible.



6. Blended (2014)

Like before, I love any movie with Adam Sandler in, but this just blew my mind. I adore the plotline and found it so funny.

I love the kids and the script in general and everything about it was really good :)

There are no other words to describe how good this movie is and I can confidently say that this is and most probably will always be my favourite movie ever.

The whole setting of this movie is incredible anyway and it all looks so pretty.

I strongly recommend this movie and even if you are under 12, well, rules are made to be broken, and besides, the 12 rating is just a piece of advice, right?




7. The Little Mermaid (1989)

I felt like this list of my favourite movies would not be complete until I added a Disney movie. The Little Mermaid has always been my absolute getaway and I love all the songs so much, I can sing all the words!

Ursula is my favourite (can you see that I've run out of ways to say favourite) villain of all time and I love her two sidekicks; Flotsam and Jetsam.

'Under the sea' and 'Part of your world' are two of the best Disney songs ever and should be sung everywhere and made as ringtones and text-tones.




Thank you for reading another one of these random blog posts and I hope that you found this useful in some way. These are just a few of my favourites but obviously there are soooooooooo many more amazing movies out there that I simply haven't seen yet. If you want, you could comment down below your favourite.
