Random Autumn Haul | 2017

If any of you also students and have UniDAYS then you will probably have heard of the student nights they have been putting on at different cities at Intu shopping centres. On the first Wednesday of the month, 4th October, it was the student night in Nottingham so naturally my friends and I went along to save some money. I have honestly never seen so many students in Victoria Centre before, the queues were insanely long in the majority of the popular shops, free drinks were being given up, Capital FM were playing some songs the entire night and we got a free shot at a random bar.

Anyway, onto the actual haul. I didn't actually buy everything in this haul at the student night, quite a lot of it I have been collecting till I had enough to write a blog post about them. The first item is a highlighter I picked up when i was in London over the Summer. I had been searching for it for ages and couldn't seem to find it anywhere, but eventually I found it on Oxford Street. This is the

Next is a new MacBook case, and yes I did break my last one but not massively. Where the case clips onto the base, the clips broke off so the case kept sliding down my MacBook - defiantly not protecting it. Two of the 'stands' on the bottom also fell of so when I was typing my laptop would move, very annoying, I finally decided to buy a new one, which was a different colour and I looks so much better than the old one. Mainly because this is matte where was the other one was patchy and see through. I still bought this case from Amazon but there was so many more you could pick from, they didn't just do plain matte colours they also did pretty patterned ones too.

Next is something I contemplated for ages and couldn't decided which to pick and then finally I made my decision. I bought myself some Black Nike One Roshe, whilst there was 20% student discount so I saved myself £14!

The first item I picked up on the student night was a new Smashbox photo finish primer, as I have been running low for a while - I haven't run out yet more just keeps coming out! But I got it just in case as I didn't want to run out and be left with none, plus I saved some money on it which is great as it is quite expensive anyway.

Now onto a lil list of random DVD's I have picked up since I was in Essex this summer. First of all is How i Met Your Mother season 8, I know what you are thinking it is a little random but I for my 15th birthday my Dad got me seasons 1-5 so I am trying to get the rest of them and it was like £3 from cex so why not? I get quite a few of my dvd's from there and they are great! I also picked up Angus Thongs and Perfect Snogging from cex also, for 50p!! Even better! Next I bought Easy A from amazon, the new Beauty and Beast and the New Pirates of the Caribbean.

Finally another thing I picked up on the student night, and it is known as a pop vinyl, and I got the Captain America Civil War one. More and more people have been getting them, they are becoming more and more popular. Gabriella started her collection and placed them on her dvd 'book' shelf and it made me want to do the same, I then found a few similar picture all of pintrest so I have started look for all the other ones that I want - but don't necessarily need... I am at Comic Con (again) this Saturday so I of course will be looking out for some that I want but also for my family and friends as Christmas is creeping up on us.

Very random but a good haul I think, but I do hope you enjoyed reading and thank you for actually reading this post! Hope you're having a nice holiday, if you are on Half Term like me!

My October Watch List

This month I thought I'd switch up my 'movie watch list' to just a watch list with some tv shows I will definitely be watching this month, of course along with some movies - some the same as last year but some new ones as I have been searching and watching some random halloween movies. I haven't managed to watch all of them, and some of the tv shows don't appeal to me but I have heard good things about them!

Down to TV shows there are so many that have brilliant halloween episodes or are just generally perfect for this month, the beginning of autumn leading into winter.

• Scream Queens
• Pretty Little Liars - Halloween episodes
• American Horror Story 
• Stranger Things
• Gilmore Girls

• The Addams Family
• The Addams Family Values
• Twitches
• Twitches Too
• The Witches
• Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
• Hocus Pocus
• Hotel Transylvania 1 & 2
• Monster House
• R.L. Stine's Monsterville: Cabinet of Souls
• The Nightmare Before Christmas 

Thank you very much for reading, I hope you enjoyed it. I also hope you all enjoy your October half term or what ever you are doing this week.

September Favourites | 2017

Happy October everyone!! It is now officially the month of Halloween so I can watch Halloween movies, which means a watch list will be on the way very soon! But first of all onto my favourites from last month, which is quite small and random for once.

First of all is a book, which I am yet to finish but so far it is brilliant! I bought it for a Spa day I had last Saturday, which was a present for my 18th back in March. The book is one that I found from doing some online browsing on amazon, which I do quite a lot actually... It annoys my mum sometimes as it's her amazon account so she is always getting emails suggesting things she may like from what I've looking at. Oops. The book is called The List by Siobhan Vivian, who I had never heard about before but after reading the blurb I was interested and it seemed different to the books I had read before.

Next is a clothing item, this is super strange but I have fallen in love with an oversized denim jacket that I bought near the end of the summer holidays when I was down in Essex. You may have seen it in my first back to school post of the year, if not here it is. When I first ordered this online it was huge, and not in a good way so I had to send it back. However when I was in Essex we went over to Bluewater and they had a misguided, so of course I tried the next size down on and it was a fit! So of course I had to buy it. To make things better there was still 20% student discount so rather than it being £35 it was £28!

My next favourite is not an item but in fact a person/people, as it is a variety of YouTube videos that are all about University. Since the majority of my friends have in fact moved away to university or still here but at university I thought i'd search the web for video's all about it, as this time next year that will be (we hope). I have come a wide variety of different videos, mainly looking at their university rooms or seeing what their experience has been like so far.  One youtuber I have enjoyed watching for that sort of video(s) is Emily Rose.

Finally onto music favourites and if I'm honest it is just my October playlist which consists of The Sctipts new album, Dua Lipa's new album and some other random songs from R5, dodie, Scouting for Girls, Taylor Swift and Hailee Steinfeld. - September 

I hope you enjoyed this short but sweet favourites for this month! Thank you so much for reading.
