Bank Holiday Mondays arn't real Mondays!

Why helloooo

I always like to start the post off with an attractive picture ;D Courtesy of the boyfie!! Now Monday was Bank Holiday in England so people take the day off work. Boyfie has the week off work, so it didn't really matter but it still felt like a Bank Holiday!! Since the clouds cleared up a bit we decided on another bike ride, this time, to the Garden Centre again!! We went with our friend this time, on his BMX, we were like an awesome bike gang yo (not)
Since it was bike time I thought I best wear something suitable for biking, so jeans it was!

Dress from Select, Cardy from Select, Jeans from Dorothy Perkins

Before we went for our lovely bike ride, we went to our friends house, Dave, who I kinda like sometimes but he talks too loud and swears a lot which annoys me sometimes. But he made us a real nice dinner of veggies, stuffing and a massive mound of mash potatoes, but I didn't really eat a lot of the mash as I was so full! I can only eat small amounts at a time (probably why I snack rather than eat proper meals) and the veg and stuffing was enough for me!! He also had homemade bread which was delicious, I had one slice at his with some sea food mix spread on it, lovely!! He gave us half to take home so I popped that in my bag for later, he also gave me a can of soup haha!!

After a couple of hours playing COD4, Wii Beach Resort Sports and Wario Ware on the Wii, we decided it was nice enough to risk a bike ride!! Dave came with us as we went to drop off the food and pick up our bikes and then we were off!!

I'M IN A FIELD!!

It was windy!!

Boys being boys, they found something to do half way through the bike ride, and this involved seeing if they could jump over a ditch to the side of the track!!

Bunny Boy Dave

The Elegant Boyfie Flail

They only jumped across it and back again so we didn't spend too long there, then we carried on up the road (about three miles there) till we got to the garden centre, When we first got in, the staff were giving us looks and watching us as if we were going to steal something so I just got fed up with it and stared back. When ever I looked round there was always at least one person hanging around near us. We arn't even kids, we are 22, 23 and 27 respectively!! Bloody mistrusting staff, made me angry and feel bad about myself!!
Ah well, I only took one picture while we were there and that was messing with my Macro:

Pretty white flower

I love delicate flowers like that, coming off nice leaved plants, I want some for my room!!
After we bought plants, we went next door to the pet store, which I love going in to see all the animals!! They had little turtles!

Awwws teeny tiny turtles!

And there were gerbils!

Gold and silver Gerbils!

And there were piles of hamsters!!

Literally!! Sleepy little critters!

And one little Robo hamster which I want to keep and name Squishy and he shall be my Squishy haha

He fell asleep during the Hokey Kokey, you put your right foot in...zzzzzz

And massive Giant Rabbits!

Giant Rabbit and normal sized rabbit!

Since it was like 6 by then and the place was closing we decided it would probably be a good time to go home!! So off we road, the entire 3 miles back again!! Now I have only been riding properly again for a week and a bit now and I was chuffed I didn't need to stop for a rest this time even though my knees were complaining!!
I adore the plants my boyfie bought to look after for me, they are so pretty!! Now I have Miss Lilac:

Miss Lilac (I dont know their real names) Red leaves with green edging and purple and white flowers!

Pinky:

Pinky ~ Pink leaves with green accents

And Butterfree (Pokemon ref for you ;D )

I think her leaves look like moths or butterflys relaxing!! This plant closes up at night

Butterfree at night, with her leaves shut and she sparkles in the evening sun!

For the rest of the night we tidied up, checked our plants were healthy and then played a bit of Deus Ex!! The boyfie bought a fern and a big leaved plant but I am yet to take pictures of that!

OH YEAH, I will end this post with a picture of British Wildlife at its finest. A kestrel!!

As took by the boyfie, as spotted by Dave, as cooed at by me!

How did you spend your Bank Holiday if you had one?

Fridays!!

Dress from Primark, Cardy from charity, black leggings

Onto Friday!! As always, Fridays were fun as the boyfie finishes work earlier and he comes home and we go into town!!  At first I thought it was going to be cold so I added a gold scarf to this get up but when we went outside it was real warm!! I was wearing my new shoe boots though and they only started burning the balls of my feet a little after four hours!! Record! They are so comfy!!

Usually we do a little clothes shop, but we only really had time to go to TKMaxx where the boyfie usually manages to pick up some trousers (He is 6 foot 6 inches so he finds it hard to get trousers long enough!) But this time, I picked up something!! I will show you in the next post as I am wearing it today haha!!

Afterwards we went to Tescos to get our food shopping and they have really stupid deals where the stuff we wanted was the only thing not in the deal!! At least we had a £10 voucher though!! After we came out, it had got a bit dark, a bit contrast with the blue skies and sun that was present when we come into town!! Check out the pretty sky though!

What a sky!!! So dark and scary but so pretty and cool at the same time!!

We went back on the bus with our shopping and when we got in, one of the cats was sitting in the laundry basket on top of the fridge. So all the time I was putting stuff away in the fridge and looked up, this was what greeted me:

Made me giggle everytime

My boyfies friend came round for a bit so we hung out, drank tea and played arcade games!! After that we went to bed so it was a pretty fast day for us!! Its raining today so I don't think we will be going out but I am sure we will do something fun!! He has a week off now, so I don't know if I will be able to update everyday but I will try!! Here was my make up of the day, sparkly gold!

Kitty xoxox~<3

Mail always makes me smile!!

YAY A PACKAGE

Things in the post that are from other people and not companys always make me smile and leave me with a big bubbly feelings!! I was so happy to see this on the floor by the letter box, I scooped it up straight away!! Then I run upstairs to open it haha I am such a geek!!

Tada!!

It was from CherryChan108 (link to her lovely blog)!! I had won her competition to win a Maybelline Mono Eyeshadow in 'I Love Lilac'!! She sent me a lovely note and the package was wrapped up so cutely!!

Cute Sakura stickers!!

Snoopy tape!!

I was so happy to recieve this I was all bubbly and I sort of squealed a bit in happyness when I opened the little pink package to find goodies (I love samples haha I always tear them out of magazines and hoard them, even if my mum bought the magazine!!)

YAY FOR GOODIES

We have from the left: Maybelline Mono Eyeshadow, Shu Uemura Skin Purifier, Vichy One Step Cleanser 3in1, VOV Daily Fresh Mini Pack Lifting Berry & Berry pack and Jergens naturals Soothe Daily Moisturiser!! So many goodies I can't wait to try them out!! Might do little reviews on them when I do!! The Jergens and the VOV Berry & Berry pack I will be using Sunday as my usual Once a week Pamper, and the other two I plan to use soon!!
Of course, I used the eyeshadow straight away (this was pre getting a shower ect so I didn't yet have make up on) And I created this lovely purply lilac eye!! This colour is so shimmery and pretty, I just added a bit of a darker shade on the corners and voila!! Make up for the day!

Pretty in purple

Scary blue eyes xD

I felt very girly and feminine sporting this eye and I loved it (you can probably tell from the girly and feminine clothes I wear, I am that type of person haha!) Talking of clothes, here is the outfit the make up was paired with:

Dress from George, Cardy from Select, sparkly pink belt, blue woolen tights

Its getting cold here in Hull, it was only about 15 today which is colder than my perfect tempurature (which is about 18, 19 C ) so I whacked on some wooly tights!! The weather is constantly wet cloudy and dark with rare patches of sun!!
But I was happy to see the plant I made the boyfie buy in the Garden Center on Sunday is actually a flowering plant!! And its PURPLE I LOVE PURPLE

So pretty!

It definately didn't have flowers on it when we bought it, we didn't even think it was a flowering plant! Its technically my plant (cause I said so) and she was kinda dry so I watered her :D I hope she survives!!
Me and my boyfie had a bit of a fall out yesterday so I went for a bikeride round the block and ended up falling off my bike!! I'm not very good with corners, so I went to take one and ended up crashing into the pavement and falling off onto my left side!! I cut my foot and scraped my leg up but nothing too horrific, a nice man came over to make sure I was alright, and then I hopped back on the bike, and with some advice to stay on the pavements, cycled home and into cuddles with my boyfie cause he felt sorry for me cause I fell off my bike and he missed me for all of the half an hour I was cycling haha! Hes so sweet, its just we are both very stubborn people sometimes (I am a Taurus he is a Cancer so probably doesn't help!) After that we were back to normal and he cleared out his drawers while I watched him and managed to nab his tripod that he never uses! Its just a little one so I can put my camera on tables and stuff and it not wobble!

The 'I'm Testing my Tripod' picture! Silly face totally needed!!

We finished the day by drinking hot chocolate and snuggling in front of the PC (like the lovely nerdy geeky people we are) and watching Tales From  The Crypt (god I love that show! So cheesy!) and then going to bed!! Ended up being a good day in the end!! Cherrychan cheered me up in the morning with her package, miss Lilac (my plant thats her name now haha) cheered me up, my mum cheered me up by exchanging emails and then, in the end, my boyfie cheered me up!! Not that I was emo or anything, I just been stuck indoors for a few days with crappy weather so I get a little down sometimes!! But thats enough rambling for now.

OH YEAH if you haven't checked it out yet, I have a new blog for nerdy things!: Kitty's Nerd Stuff ahoy!

My morning Routine!

Since I didn't really take photos yesterday (silly me!) I decided to do this blog on both yesterday AND my morning routine!!
Yesterday was really dull in terms of blogging about it I just exercised, had a bath, studyed and began making an animation on GoAnimate! I will post the link to the animation here tomorrow when its finished!! But perhaps not in this blog...MWUAHAHAH ahem..

Anyways here are the two pictures I took yesterday:

Dress from Peacocks, Dark green cardy from New Look, shiny dark blue tights.

I'M SHINEY LOOK hahaha!! Ahem anyways, that weather slowly got cloudier and cloudier and cold so no bike ride this day either :( BAW I WANT TO RIDE MY BICYCLE. Ah well, at least the end of the day was pretty:

Red sky at night, shepards delight!

And that was really it for Wednesday haha...ON TO THE MORNING ROUTINE
Thanks to iGoogle and Google Calanders, I now have a schedual I like trying to roughly stick too. Which goes as follows (this is for todays, Thursday)
0915-0930 ~ Breakfast

Nommy nommy nommy

0930-1030 ~ Write blog and bum on the net
1030-1100 ~ Get bath or shower (this varies day to day. Monday, Wednesdays and Fridays, this time is labeled Exercise and then 1100-1130 ~ Bath/Shower )
1200-1300 ~ Study
1530-1600 ~ Turn hot water on (for the boyfie! This doesn't apply to Fridays where he comes home early haha)

So thats my rough schedual, I also have a to do list which I like putting things on and see how many I can do!!
Now my morning routine that I am going to discuss starts with a bath or shower, where I wash my face. I use a face wash and a mild exfoliator in the mornings:

Clearasil Biactol Daily Gel Wash (I can only find this in Superdrugs!)

I squirt a bit on the Body Shops facial brush and lather up

Johnsons 3 in 1 gentle exfoliating facial wash. I like to use this as a gentle exfoliator just to buff my skin ready for moisturiser and make up.

Now on Sundays I use a different exfoliator once a week just to give it a good old scrubba dub dub

St Ives Apricot Scrub Blemish Fighting is love!!

I love St Ives Apricot scrubs, I use them on my face AND body!! They are just the best exfoliator I can get (cheaply)!!
Once I have got out of the bath or shower I spritz some of this on my skin and rub it in:

Avons Skin so Soft replenishing dry oil body spray

Makes my skin yummy and soft and keeps in the moisture of the bath. Its not as oily as baby oil and so doesn't leave a greasy residue on my skin for long!! I usually spray it on my arms and my lower legs!
When I get back in the room I apply a ton of stuff once again haha! I start off with deodrant, I prefer roll ons so they need some time to dry before placing clothes on so I do this first:

Dove goFresh 24h protection 0% alcohol

I love Dove roll ons as they are so non irratating and perfect for my sensitive skin!! Now being a slightly larger lady I do find myself succumb to sweating sometimes and I do get hot flushes. So this baby sorts that out on my underarms!
Next is my ever faithful toner which I love and will never replace as it never irritates my skin and it does its job:

Superdrugs Tea Tree oil cleanser and toner

I use this baby in the morning and let it dry on my skin before applying anything on top, I do love it so!
Next I apply moisturiser to my body and my current one in use is:

Nivea Happy Time!! Wheeee

I love Nivea, honest to god LOVE NIVEA. I use the body moisturiser and the lip balms and I have the cult favourite massive blue pot of the stuff which I slather on my face and neck once a week. The only problem is the facial stuff rides a bit on the pricey side so I just stick the the body stuff and the lipbalms!!
Just before I get dressed, I spritz on some perfume on my neck, clevage, wrists and back of the knees. My favourite perfume of all time is:

Beyond Paradise by Este Lauder <3

LOVE this such a nice scent and one my boyfie likes too!! And the bottle is so pretty and multicoloured, but I am running very low D: I need a new bottle!
Once I am dressed and decent I apply eye cream and face cream. If anyone knows a good eye cream for dark circles please tell me and I will test it!! Now my current one isnt TOO bad it moisturises and slightly reduces them but its not a big difference:

natural high brightening eye cream

You can buy this at Superdrugs as I said moisturises and reduces dark circles, but doesn't reduce them that much.
My facial cream at the moment is this:

The Body Shop Aloe Soothing Moisture Lotion SPF 15

Now this is alright but after a while it seperates, so I am looking for a new Day Moisturiser for less with SPF!! If you can recomend one, that would be cool :D Either that or I just look in Superdrugs, my most favourite store haha!! (Where I get a discount ;) )
With my hair, if I just washed it, I spritz a bit of this in ends after its dried a bit with the towel:

Aussie Lucious Long Leave-In Conditioner

I love Aussie stuff, I use their 3 Minute Miracle Hair Mask once a week and it smells LOVELY might have to convert all my hair stuff over to Aussie! I wonder if they do a good blonde shampoo...
If its a none washing my hair day, I spritz a bit of this in my hair to make sure its not greasy (my frindge can get greasy SO easily!)

batiste Dry Shampoo in Tropical

The best thing since sliced bread for ladies everywhere!! I have love for this!! I am always buying the different scents just to have a change each time, but I think I like this one best!!
Well, that is my morning routine, seems kinda long but it doesn't really take too long to apply all this stuff!! A few things I will change when they run out but others will be timeless :D

Thanks for reading!
