NOTD - Strawberry Fizz

Rimmel London I Lasting Finish *Fruities*

Yesterday I bought a nail varnish from the Rimmel Fruities collection. I got a pretty party pink called 025 Strawberry Fizz. It applies very well and only needs two coats in my opinion. When it dries it smells absoloutly gorgous! Like a yummy fruit smoothie. Its my new favorite colour and I will definatly be making a few more purchases from this range.

Mini Nail Polish Haul

So, I went to town today and bought a few nail polish's. Nothing exciting really but I though I would share it with you. They're all Rimmel, two 60 Seconds and two I *heart* Lasting Finish.

Rimmel London 60 Seconds.

The first one I got from this range was a gorgous grey colour. I've been wanting a nice grey for a while now and when I saw 805 Grey Matter I simply HAD to buy it! I can't really do a review since i've literally had it about two hours, but reviews and NOTD will be up soon! :-)

The next colour from the range is 810 Blue My Mind, a blue that in the bottle looks like a very pretty purple but when its on your nails with two coats it turns into a gorgous deep blue. Again swatches, reviews and NOTD will be up soon.



Rimmel London I ♥ Lasting Finish

The first one I got from this range is a shiny, shimmery blue called 198 Azure. I'm actually not to sure if I really like this colour or not. I think it would be alright if I was wearing something that matched the colour exact but I doubt i'll ever wear this colour.


Last and by absoloutly no means least, in fact I think this is probably my favorite out the bunch, is a perfectly pink 025 Strawberry. I am soooooooo in love with this colour, its actually so gorgous! My absoloute new favorite. You'll be hearing raves about this in the future, mark my words! :-)




You can purchase any of these online on the Superdrug website :- http://www.superdrug.com/

Ouch.. I need your help??

Okay, so I recently burned my arm quite severely on a tray out of the oven. I ran it under cold water from about half an hour but it still boiled and burst. Its started to scab over now but its still quite sore and is very hot to touch..

My question is how can I prevent scarring? Its in a very noticable place on my wrist and I really don't want scarring to occur..

Thank you for your help!

And you can tell everybody, this is your song.

"Do I look happy? I should — for I was a child nobody wanted. A lonely girl with a dream — who awakened to find that dream come true. I am Marilyn Monroe. Read my Cinderella story."

Growing up, my family was quite poor. We didn't have a camera ourselves so the little family photos we do have were taken by relatives or friends and given to us. Throughout my early life I was very aware of the fact that my daddy was an ill man. I remember clearly one time, I was home alone with him and I went through into the living room from my bedroom and he was there having an Epileptic fit right next to the fire, his head hitting off the hearth. I must have only been about 4 maybe 5 so I didn't know what to do. I remember just having to sit there watching him fitting, me crying and just wanting mam to come home.

Whenever my dad would ask me what I wanted for Christmas or my Birthday or just a treat for being good, I would always say without a question "All I want is for you to get better daddy.". I remember once after I said that I walked in on him crying to my mam saying he can't give me what I want.

My dad was a softie, a big softie really. He might now have seemed it at 6ft 4, well built and a shaven head but he really was just a big softie who loved animals, Only Fools And Horses and his family. A retired policeman from Newcastle, he was a scary man. People from Tyneside woud say something to my mam and then they'd back track saying "Eeh, I didn't know you were Micks wife, I'm sorry pet.".

In 2007 my dad started getting more and more ill. By October, he had a chest infection and couldn't breath well atall, was aways sleeping and when he was awake he made no sense. One day, I was getting ready for school, it was a Wednesday, and I remember he was particularrily out of it. Mam said she was going to take him to the doctors. Later on, I was in class and we were doing project time when one of the teachers came into class saying that I would be picked up from school early as we'd had an unexpected visitor. When I got into the car mam said that dad was in hospital.

We went to see him and he was in A&E then he was taken to a High Dependancy Ward. He was awake for the little time we were there then fell asleep. We left while he was asleep. I will never forgive myself for that.

The next morning we got a phone call saying that he'd taken a turn for the worst and we should get there quickly to say good bye. When we got there, he was unconcious. We went in and we started crying and telling him we loved him and all the time I was there I kept apoligizing for the stupiest little thing,  a few years earlier I asked dad if I could do something and he said no so I asked mam, he said he wouldn't ever forget me going behind his back. Thats all I could think about. We went to the office so mam could phone a neighbour to come take me and my brother home. While we were in there a nurse came in and told us he died. He died 3 minutes after we got there. The nurse told us they were amazed he had lasted that long, that they had told him to hang on because his family were coming to say goodbye and that they believed that was why he had stayed alive.

Dad died because of smoking. He didn't have a chest infection that was making it hard to breathe. He had a tumor that was so big it had collapsed one of his lungs. They said he'd had it for years. They said if he had stopped smoking a few years earlier, 2/3, he would still be alive today. That along with all his other medical conditions, epilepsy, diabetes, back troubles, hallucinations had been the death of him. This strong, ex-navel, huge man had basically killed himself. He left behind a 8 year old son and a 12 year old daughter and a wife.

That was three years ago this Halloween.

I hope to make my dad proud, I hope to go onto do Highers in English and Maths. I'm not sure what I want to do for a job yet, but I want to help people. I've decided to become an organ donor and I'm going to give blood. I want to help people that can't help themselves.

I'm determind that this will be my Cinderella Story. This will drive me to be stronger later in life, give me motive. I'm going to be healthy. I'm going to be giving. I'm going to survive life.

Favorite Quotations.

A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step. - Confucius
^ I live my life by this quote.

and again, the same quote but this time in Swedish, I'm part Swedish and I love the personal touch it gives to this quote :-
en resa på tusen miles börjar med ett enda steg.

I have never dropped anyone I belive in. - Marilyn Monroe
Its all make belive isn't it? - Marilyn Monroe
No one ever told me I was pretty when I was a little girl. All little girls should be told they're pretty, even if they aren't. - Marilyn Monroe
Imperfection is beauty. Madness is genius. Its better to be absoloutly ridiculous than absoloutly boring. -Marilyn Monroe

Some people were just getting on with their lives, chatting, being young. It simply wouldn't do. - Russell Brand
People just don't realize that the future is just now, but later. - Russell Brand

Last week most of us were strangers. But we're all here now. And god knows how long we're going to be here. But if we can't live together - we're going to die alone. - Jack Sheppard 'LOST'

No matter where you are in the world, the moon is never bigger than your thumb. - Dear John

Well, yes, ma'am, I do... I mean, I got everything I need right here with me. I got air in my lungs, a few blank sheets of paper. I mean, I love waking up in the morning not knowing what's gonna happen or, who I'm gonna meet, where I'm gonna wind up. Just the other night I was sleeping under a bridge and now here I am on the grandest ship in the world having champagne with you fine people. I figure life's a gift and I don't intend on wasting it. You don't know what hand you're gonna get dealt next. You learn to take life as it comes at you... to make each day count. - Leonardo Dicaprio 'Titanic'
