June 3: Birthday Planning Introduction

Hello again, 

Ooooo look its a post that isn't on a Sunday or a week on Instagram post yay!!!

This year marks my 18th birthday, and thus birthday party and I didn't see why I shouldn't take you all along with me during all of the planning I have been doing along with school work which is why I have been absent for a bit lately (sorry)

Anyway an introduction to all of this is probably called for.

My birthday is on a Friday so it was only fitting that my party be that Friday night.
The general theme is woodland (I've always had a theme) and I've asked everyone to dress casual and warm.

From 7pm I am having family over for a pot luck dinner. I've just asked them all to bring something savoury to share just so that it takes the weight off my shoulders in terms of making sure they all eat on top of all my baking.

The rest of the non family people are coming at 8:30pm for sweets and drinks (yay!!)

I am planning on making all of the sweets myself, so I'm in for a lot of baking over the next three weeks. It's a good thing that we have now hit the dead part of the year work wise. I've planned on making cookies and cupcakes and brownies and hedgehog slice and caramel popcorn and apple turnovers. All yummy foods. (I think I am going to do recipe posts on some of them, thoughts?!?)
I've got a whole stack of decoration plans (thank you Pinterest)so that's going to be fun testing all of them out.
I also made all of the invites and thank you cards and little food tags myself to match the theme. I think they are super cute so there will be a post on them.
I think that is every thing I am doing. Here's a little sneak peak of the invitation.

Until next time,

PS name that book I used for the background

May 26: My week on Instagram

Hello,

I have been a little bit absent this week, not out of my own free will but because school has sort of taken over my life for a little while. I am coming up to the end of this semester so I have a lot of essay to write and assignment to hand it and I am also in the middle of writing an English speech, and to make matter worse none of them are fun. That being said it probably won't change over the next few weeks, so hang in there, there will be posts when I can.

So without further ado I present my week on Instagram.

1. Monday night bath with a lush fizzbanger. Loved it.

2. Honey and cinnamon face mask with my sister complete with towel turban.

3. Waiting at the doctor's on Thursday night. Jeans & ankle booties.

4. Homemade pumpkin risotto 

5. A late night cup of tea

6. Boots & jeans on the train to the CBD.

7. Girls night in with my sister painting nails and watching She's the Man

8. Sunday morning breakfast of cinnamon toast and coffee

Until next time

May 19: My week on Instagram

Again this is my week on Instagram. Enjoy

1. Monday night after school - a lovely shot out of the band room window

2. SELFIES!! before maths study

3. Pyjama trousers and maths study

4. Post maths test comfort food - tea and hot chocolate cake

5. Sunrays from my doctors office

6. Game of thrones in bed

7. Homemade Apple pie for my sisters birthday dinner with the family

I am studying for a English practice essay the I have tomorrow. Very boring. Very tedious. But I have to do it before the season final of Dr Who tonight. Wish me luck.

Until next time,

May 12: My week on Instagram

It's Sunday here, so I guess it's time for another Instagram post. Yay!!

It's also Mother's Day, so to all the mothers out there I hope you have a good day. (I am aware that it's not Mother's Day in most countries other than America and Australia but that doesn't stop them from having a good day).

It's been a pretty average week for me, not particularly good but not too bad. Here are some pictures:

1. Monday morning breakfast remains, eggs and toast before an 8am essay.

2. Watching T.V on Monday night with my brother and sister

3. I love autumn, and crunchy leaves.

4. Just before sunset.

5. Cute golden hair ribbons make me happy

6. I should really update Adobe flash player more often

7. Blue skies on Thursday. Waiting for day before going to the doctors.

8. My baby brother turned nine yesterday. Where have all those years gone? Looking super cute in the clothes I gave to him before church.

The plans for today are make breakfast for mum, clean up my room, do some maths homework and go to lunch with my mum's parents. Should be exciting. Ooohh and paint my nails.

Also I have just gotten into watching game of thrones (about a year or so late) and watched the entire first season on Saturday. Woops!?!

Until next time,

Apr 17: Stolen Shoes

Oh hey guys,
I am now back at school after a two and a half week Easter holiday break. Thank you Good Friday, Student Free day and Parent Teacher interviews.
Today was my first day back. I was late, like usual, it seems that the holidays have put me into a really bad sleeping pattern consisting of really late nights and not getting up until after noon.
One thing that did not help me was starting the day with maths first thing. It made me brain-dead for the rest of the day. However I did get my year 12 jumper today, a whole term after all the other schools in my area. It turned out to be a good day. I only had three periods so I got to go home at lunch, only to go home to do homework but that is fine with me. It is warm here.
I am just about to go out to a casual gathering with my friends from my youth group. A pizza and pasta night.
One guess as to what I am wearing. If you guessed my new school jumper, jeans, my brother's canvas shoes and a panda beanie you would be right. I'm feeling really lazy okay, don't judge me.

Sorry this is so short and has no pictures.
Until next time,

Mar 16: a mental health day

It's been a while since I have written anything.
I've been dealing with a number of personal issues that have resurfaced, as well as having spent more time than I wish to admit at the doctor for various reasons. On top of that, I am in year 12 and there just aren't enough hours in the day to do everything I want to do.
With that in mind today I had a mental health day. A day comprised mainly of drinking copious tea, eating food that otherwise would not be too good for me and reading a thick book. I think that is the definition of a good day.
Just out of curiosity, what do you do to relax?

I will have a proper post up tomorrow.
Until next time,
Liana xx
