HELLO!

Hi guys! I'm sorry I haven't posted in a while! Not much has happened since last time really.. 

Although, I'm now in a relationship with my crush.. (inside I'm screaming..)!

Yesterday and today though, I've been messing around on GarageBand and I've posted the first thing I made on it.. So have a look, maybe subscribe and like it? It would do me a huge favour!

STILL WAITING AND NEW IDEAS

I am still waiting for my MacBook.. After a few weeks, I had expected to have it by now. I'm still going to wait until I get it to do a big update from last weekend because I just want to really.. :')

Anyway, about this new idea.. I was speaking to another blogger the other day after she posted her first vlog on YouTube and I asked her if she was nervous when she was making it and posting it and I said that I want to start vlogging but I'm too nervous to do it. I realised afterwards that the reason I'm so nervous is literally because of the size of YouTube itself.

I mean it's huge!

The whole idea that millions of other people go on YouTube daily makes me nervous because I feel that if I make a vlog, I have millions of people out there who could be judging me or just saying things to or about me and it makes me uncomfortable. So the idea I had was because I'm interested in IT and coding/programming, I was thinking that I could create a website, like YouTube that is just for vloggers and people who like vlogging. Because I don't know about you, but to know that everyone who uses a site that I upload a video on, likes the idea of people vlogging makes me a lot more comfortable.

What do you think? Would it make you feel more comfortable to vlog on a site only made for vloggers? Could you give me any ideas of things to include on the site? Like colour schemes, site names, anything.. I'd love for you all to be involved!

 

Also, say hello to my new mascot! I designed her myself! ;)

THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM (UPDATE WISE)

The reason for this title is because post wise, it basically says what's going to happen. This post is going to be a small update before a large one when i FINALLY get my MacBook!

Recently, I've been looking a lot at starting the sport of Wakeboard and you'll understand why from the next post. It looks really fun to do plus I'll be able to keep my fitness up when doing it. If i get this apprenticeship I'll be able to go weekly and still have a bit of money left over which is a bonus!

Also, today i was watching some JacksGap videos and he started his channel basically because he finished school and was one his gap year. My summer holidays officially start on 17th July but i doubt I'll start a channel then. But i was thinking today, if i was to start a channel, I'd start with challenges like Cinnamon Challenge or Chubby Bunny or something..

What do you guys think? Do any of you have channels i could take a look at? If you don't and were going to start one, how would you start it?

LIFE

HELLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOO! I'm really sorry I haven't been here and written for ages, I just felt it wasn't good enough and I needed another hiatus.. But I'm back now! So hello friends!

Recently, I applied for an apprenticeship with Unilever. It's an IT apprenticeship that last for two years and if I get it, I get £250 a week. Now for a first job and for someone who finds it very easy to save money, that's amazing.

I worked out that if I give my mum £40 a week for keep (letting me stay in our house) and spend maybe £20-£30 a week , that leaves me £180 a week.. Times that by 4, which gives us £720 a month.. Times that by 12, which gives us £8,640 a year, times by 2 and I get that £17,280 in my bank account as savings by the end of it.

That's if I even get the apprenticeship and if I keep to that plan. I could get a car with that, the  insurance and even I'd be able to rent a flat for a while.. But, I'll stinge off my parents for as long as I can like ;)

Anyway, I've tried to go through a fitness phase and to be honest, I can never be bothered enough to do any exercise. I think that's probably because the exercises I try and do I don't enjoy. Like, I enjoy cycling and that is pretty much about it.

So I came up with this idea maybe an hour ago, because I was thinking of a SacconeJoly video where Jonathan goes cycling, you know like he does every week and I was thinking, because I really want to travel, and  I mean /really/ want to travel, maybe if  I got a bike, a really good one, I could travel on it.

Obviously the travels would just be small at first, cycle around Great Britain and then Ireland. Then I'd be cycling and seeing the world at the same time. Of course once I'd gotten used to doing it I'd move to other countries like France, Spain, Germany and then hopefully I could move to bigger countries like America and Canada.

This is just an idea, but I'd really, really, really like to do it. I thought as well that while doing it, I could start my YouTube channel then, filming it as I (or we, if someone wanted to do it with me..) travelled and learned about culture and history of the different countries and maybe even raised money for charity while doing it.

I'm literally gonna start writing the next post as soon as this one is published and it's gonna include my bucket list, and what I think travelling is because I feel like people my age don't even know the meaning of a holiday anymore.

P.S. I'm also going to change this account to a personal, so you will all find out my name, what I look like etc, etc.

Cheerio!

APRIL 15TH 2014

The reason that the title of this post is a date, today's date to be precise, is because that's what I'm going to talk about. Today, my day etc etc. I've decided that when I can't think of a "topic" to talk about, I'll talk about my day and stuff. So yeah, here's my day.

I woke up at around 10am, which I was extremely disappointed about. I mean, I'd gotten up about 7am Saturday, Sunday and yesterday and I had told myself that I was going to have a lie-in. To me, a lie-in is midday, so before you even say that it is a lie-in to wake up at 10am, it isn't to me. 

When I did get out of bed though, I didn't really know what I was going to do, I mean, I find holidays so boring because my social life is so dull and I don't have any hobbies to be honest. Anyway, I checked Instagram and I saw a picture than Jonathan Joly had posted of his new baby son Eduardo and thought "Oh, I know! Lets watch SacconeJoly videos all day!" and that's what I did! I connected my iPad YouTube to my Xbox YouTube and watched them for a few hours.

Then I watched the Hillsborough Memorial on the news. Justice for the 96. There's not really much I can say about it. It was beautiful. After it had finished though, I started playing FIFA ironically and have been doing that ever since, even though its been a nice day.

And then very recently, I've just taken some pictures of a really cool yellow moon! It really is yellow / orange but you know, same difference. It took me ages to get a good picture though and it turns out all I needed to do was put the flash on! :')

Told you so! ;)

BLOGGING

Due to my love for writing and my stupid low self-esteem, I've wanted to start a blog for ages. Countless times I've made them and they've ended up going nowhere because of one of two things;

1. I've completely given up because I believed the blog was inadequate and that nobody was reading.
2. I have completely forgotten about the whole thing and have also forgot the password.

Anyway, recently, I've started watching YouTube vlogs again and it just made me realise how much I actually missed writing down what happened in my day and how everything made me feel. But also, due to blogging there have been a few problems I am facing;

1. I have no idea who to follow! Bloglovin' is such a great help and it lets me keep an eye on the blogs I'm interested in. 
2. Most of the blogs I can see on there are to do with fashion, and if you ever met me, you'd understand that I'm the furthest away from fashion a girl can ever be. I would rather pull on some skinny jeans, trainers and a hoodie than pull on a dress, high heels, do my hair up etc.
3. Bloglovin' also has trouble telling me how many people are following my account. The actual counter tells me I have 6 at the moment, but when I actually click to see who they are, it only shows 4, I mean, what the hell!?
4. I have no idea what to write about! Yes, I suppose I could write things like my bucket list or pet peeves or something, but there's only so much you guys will want to read about me, and I don't have a very interesting life at the moment. 

Since a few of you have been here for a while, could you guys give me any advice?

When you started, what did you write about?

Plus, does your bloglovin' account have any of the same problems mine does?
