Review of VIII

Hey Guys,

Now that exams are over. ( I know I keep bringing it up but come on they are over)
 I have had a bit more time to read ,cue excited cheering. I love to read I find it so amazing that just with a few words a good author can take you to new worlds and make you feel a multitude of emotions. I especially love reading historical or more to the point Tudor books.( whoa.Shocker there...).

One book I have been dying to read was VIII by H.M.Castor.
It was really good and well written.
 The plot was about Henry VIII`s mental illness which I never considered.  Castor said he has keep avoiding Henry and skirting round the web rather than focus on the spider in the middle and I realised I have too. It changed my perspective on his reign. The book went through his whole life, from when he was a little boy to when he dies. The main bit was about this boy Henry keep seeing a various points in his life with straw-coloured hair. This lead me to think of various things it could be, like his innocence slowly disappearing as he got older represented by a frail boy or one of the princes in the tower haunting him to remind him to the uneasy throne he sat on. I really enjoyed the book  and would suggest it to anyone who wants a good read to understand Henry vIII  more. I will be reading this again and again.
Work hard, go outside and read a book,

Salamanca

Hey Guys,

I am blogging this from all the way from SPAIN!
Why am I in Spain?
Firstly:
on a quest to be adventurous.
 Even if it is with school and we are locked away in a classroom for four hours and 50 minutes a day still im here.
I have gone salsa dancing, karaoke, eaten chocolate con churros and been to a bar and have drunk alcohol.

Secondly:

To prove I can do something adventurous and give me a taste of what different countries are like and what it is like to TRAVEL.

and you know what I am enjoying it

Love,

Confidence and saying yes

Hey Guys,

So today I decided to change my hair. For most of you reading this you probably change or have kept your hair the same for ever... I was one of those people, for my whole life my hair has been long, brown and straggly. Until now... today I bit the bullet in some respect and cut my hair to just above shoulder length and... dip dyed it blonde. Little bit of a change. But I actually really like it.I wouldn't call it spontaneous ( I have been planning this for 4 months ).

This is part of me say YES to things ( something a popular blogger Zoella talked about that I really agree with and want to continue). So I hope this inspires you, whoever is reading this to do something you`re scared off.

Love,

Long time no see.

Hey Guys,

This is going to be a short one as I have a little time as I am on a quick break from revision to update you guys....

EXAMS ARE IN UNDER A WEEK

Yep you read right. a week.

if you can't tell this is me panicking. I am scared because firstly I feel like I haven`t done enough for the results I want and exams in general stress me out I would so much rather have an on going assessment over the year taking into consideration the grades of our home work and test scores then take an average on that. Anyway exams will mean I will be posting less and less and if I do they will be short not long rambly ones until the 16th June. My last exam. The day summer starts. fingers crossed I get there ALIVE!

Work hard, enjoy life, read a book

The mumps

Hi Guys

Holidays have just started but I don`t quite feel myself.

For the past few days I haven't been feeling myself. I just felt down and blugghh. Not ill but my whole motivation had gone. I like to call this the mumps when I feel like I can't do anything and I will end up failing my life. So I want to share with you guys from time to time quotes I feel that have helped me and might help you. So this even though it is from merlin,( Just saying BBC bring it back... Just a suggestion...)

I feel like it helps me because It reminds me I don't know what  the  hell is going to happen in 10 years so it reassures me everything will be fine :)

If you can`t read it, it says: " No man no matter how great can know his destiny"

Enjoy life, work hard and read a book

The joy of exercise?

Hey Guys,

So I am literally the least fittest person ever. I cannot run to save my life. My body just isn`t made that way....
But writing this I've just cone back from doing 50minutes of exercise. And it was something I enjoyed. I was in a field and I did sprints, jogging, cardio, dance even some aerobics. Its only now that im sweating and feeling the pain but I felt alright doing it. And I hope to do more exercise soon. I feel like I need to do more exercise to cut down on sweet intake so I need to work minimizing that. Especially with Easter coming up :/

Enjoy life, work hard and read a book.

Love,
