penny-farthing.

top: Forever 21

cardigan: New Look

skirt: Miss Selfridge

tights: Primark

This is what I wore this afternoon. I bought the top in New York (Forever 21 in Times Square is absolutely amazing! Could have bought the whole shop!) and its lovely. I really like the Penny-farthing pattern on it. Teamed it with a simple black skirt, and my favourite red cardi, and I'm good to go.

Happy Mothers Day to my amazing mum! I know it sounds cliché, but my mum means the world to me, and I love her to pieces. She spoils me rotten, does literally everything for me, and I don't know where I would be without her. The tables have been turned today and I've spoiled her for a change. I bought her a bunch of flowers, and took her out for lunch this afternoon. We both had roast beef with all the trimmings, and they came with giant homemade yorkshire puddings - yummy! Had such a lovely afternoon.

eight minors.

Today, I passed my driving test! It was my second attempt (nearly knocked someone over on my first test - whoops!) and I honestly believed that I was going to fail from the moment I got into the car, so I'm absolutely made up!!

As you can probably guess from the title, I got 8 minor faults. I could of and have drove better, but I was so nervous, so I'm not surprised. I'm just so happy to have passed and can't wait to get on the road with my new found freedom!

catch up!

Someone's been a naughty blogger. Sorry for a lack of updates since my birthday, but I've been mega busy.

one. School. Surprise surprise, school has taken up a lot of my time. I've had my practical exams in Chemistry and Biology, which went ok, but I hate doing them. The grade boundaries are ridiculous, so doing well in them is pretty much impossible. Going to do the other lot though, which are easier to do better in, so fingers crossed. I've also been busy doing my EPQ, which is taking up a lot of my time at the moment! Hopefully it will all be worth it in the end.

two. Got the results of my January exams on Thursday, and I am actually over the moon. Luckily all my hard work paid off and I got 4A's and 3B's. I wont have any resits in the summer either, so I'll only have 3 exams, which will be helpful as there is so much to learn!!

three. Been to Keele University today for an Open day. Keele's my insurance choice, and I was quite impressed. The halls were a little outdated, and unfortunately we weren't allowed to see the labs, but I was impressed with everything else. The campus and surrounding areas are also pretty and peaceful.

four. Done a little update of my layout. I was getting a bit bored of the spots, so I went for something a lot simpler, and I like it. I hope you do too.
