Girl On Fire :)


Yessaries, The R&B Queen Alicia Keys has released a new song: Girl On Fire! It's really, really addictive and, it's those songs which you won't like the first time you hear it. Then, you begin to like it a teeny bit, more and more until your heart screams to listen to it!

It's such a powerful song with lots of meaning coming out of it. One of them for me personally is that a girl is never weak no matter what happens. They're always on fire! (Like Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games... lol)

Anyway, this song is given by me four bright stars. Applause, and enjoy listening =D

Rihanna- Diamonds =D



Rihanna recently released a new song called "Diamonds" It's a seriously amazing song which I and lots of other people could listen to all day. It's addictive, obsessive and intense. It's one of a handful of Rihanna songs I would give 5 bright, shiny stars, or should I say diamonds in the sky? ;)

First I'd just like to say, you won't really get this post if you're not an artistic person who loves loves loves life. You'll just look at the pictures with this post and be like, "Okay. Yeah. A picture." So I wouldn't bother wasting your time.
 Anyway...
This is another photography post which are of random places in the world and they all remind me how lucky i am to live on the gorgeous Earth. All of them link back to, yet again, Amazing World  on Google+


Luxor, Egypt

Pelotas, Rio Grande Do Sul


Kyoto, Japan


The Potala Palace, Lhasa, Tibet

Xi'an, Shaanxi, China

The Ruins Of Prambanan In Yogyakarta


Burgos, Castille and Leon, Spain



Our world is just so amazing, beautiful, incredible, ground-breaking, mind-blowing, and earth-shatteringly gorgeous. (Yes i ran out of adjectives there.. :P)

Adele- Skyfall

Listen to Adele's Skyfall >>

So of course everyone knows about the new James Bond movie- Skyfall! The theme song for it was made by Adele, who I actually think is a living legend. Anyway- her song is obviously called "Skyfall" and I think it's pretty MIND-BLOWINGLY AMAZING.

The song is just soo addictive to listen to, as well as being very good and James Bond-y! If you get what I mean... The music is just, so.... well, listen to it and you'll know what i'm talking about!

I would give this song a 5/5! I would recommend to anyone and everyone, especially YOU. So listen to it from the above.

3 Minute Draw! (=

Hey again! At school, in Geography, I was drawing under the table in secret ;) I have this thing where I set a seriously short time limit for myself and draw something. So, this is what I ended up with...

I took it with my crappy phone =D It took 3 minutes, and the sketch (if you can call it one) is pretty bad for that time, but still i thought i'd share it haha. It's a good time passer, this, so try it xD

Scrapbooks xD

Yeah, the word 'scrapbook' probably makes you yawn (used to make me, too) but, for a while now, i've wanted to start scrapbooking, just to see if it's fun or anything.

So. the other day, i bought this cute little notebook with a scribbly cat pattern on it (it was an impulse buy, I didn't know what i would use it for) and decided to attempt scrapbooking in it. So i tried. And iT WAS actually fun, if you like cool crafty things like meh! =D


 These are my first pages, which are a bit messy, but i still love them. (These pages have a kind of cosy theme, you know what i mean? Cupcakes and tea and biscuits...)

So, yeah! I would defo recommend you start a scrapbook. You can decide a theme for each page, and then, to fill it in, you can use pretty much anything- draw, print out pics from Google, cut out magazine pics, take your own photos... It's basically putting your imagination, dreams and inspiration onto paper! I know it sounds cheesy, but... just try it out! The best thing is, when you look back at it, you'll find a tangled mess of beautiful pictures and gorgeous drawings. All done by you...

Happy November! =D

 November has now officially begun!
There are two main events in November:
• Bonfire Night
• Remembrance Day

I personally can't wait for tommorow (Bonfire Night) to see all the fireworks! Woohoo...

If you've forgotten how fun Bonfire Night is click here to see London's 2011 fireworks. Pretty amazing!

But also there is a sad side- Remembrance Day- the day where we remember all those brave soldiers by wearing poppies and having one or two minutes in silence. ='(
Click here for a video I found on Youtube which gives respect for the soldiers on Remembrance Day.
