MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Merry Christmas you gorgeous Elves!

Well I hope you have all had an amazing Christmas and kept the Christmas spirits high! Yes, I know it has been sooooo long... But DAMN I have been one busy Bea!

Okay let me break it down...
1) Thurs-  Abi and I hid behind a curtain during our drama class and managed to remain silent ninjas while people performed on the opposite side of the curtain. LOL.


2) Fri- Then had a sleepover at Abi's with Jasmine and Byron.... That was so swanky!

3) Sat/Sun- Following morning Byron and I had rehearsals for the nativity that we performed the following day. Byron played Joseph (with his 9 year old Mary) and I played the sassy Inn Keeper.

4) Monday- I went to Winter Wonderland in London with my mum, my brother, Byron, Cloe and Marin. I have to say Snow Mountain was the best ride! I was in hysterics with laughter because Byron sat in a 2 seater on his own so he kept getting knocked about. Also all the Christmas lights looked beautiful in London, especially Harrods and Fortnum & Mason's lights.

5) Tues- My Uncle, Aunty and cousins came down from Yorkshire- we had a family gathering at my Nanny and Puppa's house. It was lovely to see them all! P.S. Thank you for my Christmas card and money, lots of love!

6) Weds (Xmas Eve)- My Nan, mum, Byron and I went to Peterborough Cathedral to listen to the band play. We then went to grab a bite to eat in Chimichanga restaurant- Ay ay ay! We then went to our local Church in Ramsey for midnight mass, however by that time I was shattered and could barely keep my eyes open.

7) Christmas Day- Wakey wakey rise and shine... Early start! Before I thought that I couldn't have enough 'spiritual enlightenment' from church the family were off again. It wouldn't surprise me if I start singing "O come all ye faithful" in my sleep. After that I came home and dolled up ready for Christmas dinner at the Marriot Hotel. The food was delicious! Once home with a Santa sized belly the family opened our presents... Santa has been so generous to me! Thank you soo soo soooo much!! Nina Ricci and Prada compliments to you for making me smell so good!

Anyways Feliz Navidad everyone! Next time I speak to you it will be 2015!!! Oh my donkey kong that be cray!!

Fancy Shmancy

Gurd Murning!

 

How is everyone on this fine and chilly morning...Good? Good. So on Wednesday Byron and I went to go and see Basement Jaxx in concert at the Cambridge Corn Exchange. I was really excited because I sang back-up vocals on their song "Power to the People" so I felt like the Jaxx's and had a special connection :'D Anyways, when we got to Cambridge we had 2 hours spare, luckily because Byron was meant to be the one who knew where we were going but actually he had no idea. Once we had found the Corn Exchange we went to a Starbucks around to corner to kill time. Then when it came to 7pm we thought that we'd better go because there's bound to be a massive queue. The concert was said to start at 7:30pm. However, much to our surprise when we arrived no one was there and the doors were locked... we decided to wait. 5 mins later. I say "Hmmm this is odd maybe I should check the tickets". I check the tickets. "Monday 8th December... 8th... MONDAY 8TH DECEMBER!!!" I didn't know whether to cry or laugh but both Byron and I were in hysterics. So instead we spent our evening walking around Cambridge looking at the shops and the disappointing lack of Christmas lights. That's the last time I trust my mum with tickets, to be honest I should've asked her if I could check them because last time we went to Alton Towers my mum bought Thorpe Parks tickets! Lesson now well learnt!

 

Well on Friday 12th it was National Christmas jumper day and the sixth form was filled with Christmas jumper wearers. However, just like technology everything seems to be becoming more advanced in this day and age... INCLUDING Christmas jumpers! A guy in my sixth form called Charlie Marshall had an amazing jumper- it actually glowed and moved! What?! That jumper is cray!

 

Anyways, in the evening I went to see the new Hobbit with my friend Cloe, her dad, my mum and my brother. Now, haters please don't hate but I'm not a massive fan of the Hobbit trilogy or the Lord of the Rings films so I got nowhere near as emotional as Cloe did- can I just mention how much Cloe loves the Hobbit, she even wore a Hobbit cape to the cinema! However, without giving any spoilers away the film was really good and I would definitely see it again.

 

Then on Saturday, I went shopping in Peterborough with Cloe so that she could buy her Christmas presents but we were pushed for time so we were literally running around the shops. Oh and thank you so much for my beautiful Christmas present Cloe ;) After that I had to rush home to get ready to go out to this fancy family gathering for a man who turns 95 today! Therefore, the minute I flew through the door I began stripping as I persisted forward towards the shower. Once out of the shower and sparkling clean I attempted to blow dry my hair while eating a sandwich and doing my makeup at the same time. When my hair was finally dry I wacked it into some heated curlers (which really didn't want to be curled) and threw my clothes on.

 

Once we arrived at the event, I was greeted by the daughter of the birthday boy whom had an accent that made me realise how upper class this event was. The night continued with meeting new people and trying to carry out conversations that sounded at least a tad intellectual. However, I got to meet some lovely people around my age and this one girl called Summer gave me tips on A level Spanish which really helped... I found we had a lot in common when it came to our interests.  Now at these fancy shmancy gatherings they always serve strange food... okay food is an overstatement, I mean "bite size ordure's". The oddest of these miniscule snacks was this mini meringue with a beetroot and fish paste on top... I'm not going to lie they looked like a slightly larger version of a Iced Gem- yeah they tasted nasty! By the end of the night mum and I were starving so on the way home we got a McDonalds drive-through, ironic or what.

 

Anyways, I best get on with coursework because I'm off to the radio station at 4pm... Don't forget to tune in at 5pm on HCR104fm.

A late Friday with wasabi

Bonjourno!

 

So since the last time I posted, my school day has mainly consisted of sleeping on the sofas in the Common Room during my frees, because I've been feeling super poorly with this snotty cold. The worst part is that it's not only a cold but a mix of allergies as well... double the snottiness! *Ewww*

 

Luckily, my friend Julia has Netflix on her laptop so we snuggled and watched Lilo and Stitch- woohoo Disney!! However, once lunch began the Common Room got really crowed and once again Josh play his old-school tunes! Oh, and Abi and Emily had a little picnic and shared a wrap with each other- I've never seen Abi so excited to eat food! Also, once again my phone got ambushed with "interesting" selfie's  and if you leave a funny selfie on my phone then you're definitely guaranteed a place on my blog.

 

 And now... It's time for.... SHAN'S FASHION FRIDAY!!! Yes, yes I know it's no longer Friday but I didn't have time to post then, so here it goes. Shan looked as stunning as ever in an all black outfit. Her leather jacket complimented her lace-chested dress perfectly... This outfit was born to be rocked by this gal!

Now the reason I couldn't post on Friday is because once I got home from school I jumped into the shower, washed my hair, jumped back out, blow dried my hair, applied my make-up and then got dressed... All ready to go out for dinner in Peterborough for Kyra's 17th Birthday. Once Byron and I arrived we were reunited with our old friends from Abbey College and some of Kyra's friends from Kings (they looked like super smart people). Now in this Restaurant, they have food from all over the world set out into a buffet. Some of the food was nice... others  not so much. Okay, so when Byron and I went to go and get some food we spotted some Sushi (we lurv sushi), although it looked a bit bland and unappetising. Usually, I don't have wasabi if it's really good quality sushi but this time I decided to take some. Now I don't know what was going through Byron's mind at this point because he put a massive spoonful of the stuff all over his sushi... he was literally treating it like gravy. When we went back to the table, I was about to start a conversation with someone when a little wimper followed by a scream came from beside me. I turned around to see Byron crying and waving his arms around and trying to say how spicy it was... I have never laughed so hard!! After gulping down his coke to aid his burning throat, he began to scrape all the wasabi off his plate into the Christmas crackers provided on the table- after tasting the wasabi myself I also thought this was a good idea.

Oh and Kyra didn't have a candle that said 17 so she had "9+8" instead! Oh and that awkward moment when I start singing Happy Birthday in Spanish really out of tune and everyone goes silent! Yeah, great.

Anyways... I'll be here forever if I have to explain everything that happened so I'll let the pictures and videos do the talking! Be safe people and don't mistake wasabi for gravy!

Coursework Cafuffle

Hullah People!

Okay, so I've decided that until most of my coursework has finished, I am only going to post during my free time. Queue the "AWH!" I know, I know sad times these are! Anyways, I'm not only posting to tell you the bad news, I also want to give you an update my current life situations.

 

Okay, so last weekend I had my gorgeous friend Cloe sleep round because we were helping each other with coursework; however things quickly changed when Cloe started going through my "dressing-up box". Because we were going to be doing a fairy-tale themed photo shoot the next morning I think Cloe was keen to see what costumes I had to offer. Now if you can imagine that this dressing-up box only contains costumes from when I was around 7 years old, so no way would any of that stuff fit me today (more like they will only go over my leg). Luckily, Cloe owns this really cool Hobbit/Elf costume in my size- so obviously we used that! Now I'm not 100% sure if I'm allowed to put any of the photos up because they're a part of her coursework, but if I am then I'll definitely post them for you to see!  

 

Secondly, once again during my free period, the Common Room turned into a rave, while Josh brought back the songs from the past while dancing with Charlie and Owain danced in the dark wearing a flashing Christmas jumper. Oh and Jasmine took a beautiful low angled selfie... feel free to observe the selfie and videos provided.

 

Then on Wednesday evening, Will and I had to represent Hinchingbrooke Sixth Form by giving a speech to the hopeful newcomers in September 2015. Now we both had to do two speeches which meant that overall we spoke to at least over 500 people *Gulp*. That's cray cray! Now, the reason Will and I had to speak is because they wanted the perspectives of sixth formers who are externals (me) and internals (Will). Although, I have to be honest... I have no idea why they picked me of all people- I'm forever stumbling over my words. However, putting the nerves aside I think the outcome turned out great and very late that night I received an email containing this:

 

"A HUGE thank you for your contribution to the success of tonight's open evening. I had comments from students and parents in the audience who said you were both inspirational and set the right tone. Apparently you were much better than student speakers from other sixth form open evenings! So well done."- Mrs Miller

"Absolutely - you were both confident, personable, funny, and engaging. You took it extremely seriously, prepared yourselves superbly, and displayed the very best aspects of the sixth form."- Mr Fordham (Head of 6th Form)

 

Anyways, that's pretty much it for now! But I would just like to say a Happy Birthday to Kyra and I cannot wait to go out for dinner with you and the buddies tomorrow!

 

Hasta luego!

It's been sooo long!

Hallo Moto!

 

I know, I know... I'm a bad person! I have not blogged for nearly a WHOLE week! How catastrophic! So the reason why I have been living in the shadows is because I have been awfully busy... Now you're probably thinking "she's always saying how busy she is". Well actually coursework has been taking over me life, man! All you students out there, yeah you know how I feel.

 

Anyways, I'm going to give you a little update! So on Wednesday Byron, Charlie and I went to watch the boys (Hinchingbrooke 6th Formers) play Rugby against Spalding Grammar School. So, I was told that they were playing against "Evian"... So being me I believed it and wanted to ask them if they had brought Evian water with them- thank god I never got the opportunity to ask! Now, our boys played amazingly but unfortunately they lost... However I'm sure they will thrash them next time! ;) Oh and I've been asked to do a shout out to number 10, Fly-half! Oh and I must say the boys looked rather dashing running around in the mud in their shorts.

 

So today, Byron came into school late and explained that he thought it was Saturday so he went into work with his dad. However, when Byron and his dad turned up at their customers house they realised that actually it was Friday- what a conundrum! Henny-hoo, Byron also told me that he had a rather interesting dream... AND he has allowed me to share it with you!!

 

I quote:

"My dream began with me going to Film Studies and Bea wasn't in the classroom. Then Mr Lloyd (our teacher) started singing the lesson- yes instead of talking he was singing. Then Bea storms in with loads of work in her arm and then walks back out, drops the work on the floor and enters back into the classroom with a pram. In the pram was a half Caribbean raced baby with the same hair as my friend Josh. Bea then says "Here Byron have Bosh, I cannot have him today, I'm too stressed! Now you gays have the right to have babies you can have the responsibility!" So I'm then bouncing this baby on my knee and Harriet then takes the baby to play with it. Then suddenly out of the baby's mouth comes "I want B" in Josh's voice- I then fainted."

 

To hear the rest of the dream feel free to ask Byron, as the content could be too explicit for some readers.

 

Now, it's that time of the week for... SHAN'S FASHION FRIDAY!! Okay so today, once again Shan looked on point as she wore a petrol blue lace dress. Feel free to observe the picture provided.

 

Apologies once again for this very late post! Stay happy and eat cupcakes!

There must be something in the air!

Aloha awakea!

 

Sorry about not posting last night, I was super tired! So yesterday was one crazy day... Now I've already given you a long-winded post so I'll try and keep this one short and snappy.

 

Okay first things first, during my free period Byron and I were in a rather strange mood... Most people thought we were drunk but it was more like we were both past the point of caring and being shattered. So during this period of Byron and I's break down... we laid on the sofa's in the Common Room singing and laughing hysterically. Then before we knew it other buddies of ours joined us and made comments like "What have you guys taken? Are you drunk? Bea you need help!" As you know, the giggles are contagious so everyone else around us began laughing- boy did that slow motion video of Byron, Abbie and I make me laugh... tears were pouring out of my eyes!

 

After that I had Film Studies; randomly I found a pair of nude colour tights in my bag and Harriet decided to tie them round her head and take selfies with Byron and our teacher (Mr Lloyd)... I think there was something in the air that day because everyone was acting nuts!

 

Anyways, that's pretty much all I'm going to say for now because I have to get on with my coursework! Oh but before I go, I just want to say that I hope my mumma has a great day bridal shopping with her gals and I'm sorry that I couldn't make it! Also do you like my Hawaiian greetings? Pretty snazzy ay!? ;)

 

A hui hou (Goodbye, until we meet again)!

Bea-ing embarrassed!

'Ello, 'ello 'ello!

 

So today has been a rather embarrassing day, if I do say so myself. Now the fact that I've done something embarrassing is no surprise, however because the majority of the bashful events seemed to occur consecutively within the space of an hour, it did seem rather odd.

Now I have no idea why this happened today... maybe it was because I didn't have any breakfast or maybe it was because I needed to wee at least 10 times within the space of 5 hours, OR maybe it was because I decided to wear thin skin coloured tights when clearly it is the time of year for only black or opaque tights. WHO KNOWS?

 Anyways, I should probably embarrass myself even further and just confess what actually happened... I mean what else can I loose at this point?

 

Okay so it all started when Byron, Jarvie (yeah spelling isn't my forte) and I were walking to our lesson... Now Jarvie was saying something about Byron's leather jacket and for some reason or another I always blank out when that guy opens his mouth. So anyway, for a brief moment I actually listened to what he was saying... he said something along the lines of  "I only wear leather that looks like leather" but for that split second I was actually going to react to his bold statement with a simple "Oh". However, my sanity soon fell short when a rather good looking lad walking in the other direction caught my attention... So not only did this "Oh" turn into a different reaction (that was no longer to Jarvie's statement) but it seemed to come out of my mouth in a whole different manner- and was rather loud at that. Before I knew it, the guy was looking at me and blatantly judging me.

 

Then after lesson, Byron and I had to walk from one side of the school grounds to the other. Now as we were walking everyone kept looking at my face and legs... and I mean they were not just looking, they were intensely staring! Knowing me I thought I had pen on my face and a massive hole in my tights or something. Turns out, I had nothing on my face nor was there any problems with my tights- I did not know what was going on! After being attacked by praying eyes from all corners, Byron and I were expecting a child to make some silly remark... then we passed 'that' child. Now Byron and I were both staring back at this little boy but before we knew it he revealed a large and strange smile that showed the contents of the inside of his mouth. "Wait what just happened!?"- Byron and I went into a state of shock! 

 

We then walked into the canteen and declared to a friend of ours, the traumatic experience that we had just been through. HOWEVER, once again without realising how loud my voice is when I mentioned "my legs"... everyone in the canteen turned around and starred at them! -_- After that I was then caught eating a sandwich rather un-gracefully from a guy whom was looking down at me from the top of a stair case... I must of looked like a wide mouth frog with that sandwich! Byron then said that the guy was a part of the "leg patrol searching for my legs". God help me.

 

THEN we were coaxed into a gap year talk were this guy spoke about the deadly diseases you can catch and how you need to be really careful in the dangerous wilderness; now that wasn't the embarrassing part, but when he started asking people where they are going on there gap year and people where replying with exotic/adventurous locations I was literally praying that he wouldn't ask me. Why? Because I'm going to work in Disney World in Florida for my gap year!  

 

Last but not least, the last embarrassment consisted of me hitting Byron by accident and then when I tried to apologise I ended up tripping over him and grazing my knee on a carpet. So yeah... what a great day! -_-

 

Story of my life though! Oh and thank you George Clooney for expressing my facial expression about today!

Quicky & Picky

Whatup homies!

Okay so for all you students out there... I feel your pain! I have never had such a large pile up of coursework in all my life. Who on earth came up with the idea of putting coursework deadlines right near Christmas... The Grinch?

Anyways, besides the coursework stress I have had a pretty relaxing day. To be honest I needed it... Why is only Tuesday!? So I have to make this blog quick because I have a Singing In The Rain rehearsal.

Okay to sum it up, the day involved...
1) Psycho laughing in the hidey-hole
2) Thinking that Abi said that "Santa's" favourite food is lemon cake when she actually said "Sansa's..."
3) Collecting an antique collection of crumbs in my bra
4) Abi sleeping on a computer desk
5) Byron receiving a very specific careers guide

Last but not least...

6) My Nan attempting to play Xbox!!

Feel free to observe technologies finest skills of taking photos and videos! Now I must be off!
Ciao Amo!

Paris & Oolala moments!

Ciao Amo!

Okay so today has been pretty normal... But on the bright side I managed to find those videos of Byron and Abbie on their MI5 mission! So don't you worry... You won't have to miss out on the action.

Anyways last night my friend Enzo was teaching me some French phrases... So apparently the phrases I will need to use the most in Paris are:

Help me- Vous pouvez m'aider
I love you- Je t'aime
A small room please- Une petite piece s'il vous plait
Are you single?- Tu es celibataire?

Now you're probably wondering why on earth am I wanting to learn French phrases that are relevant to Paris! WELL... In October 2015 Cloe, Byron, Josh and I will be going to Disneyland Paris- the greatest place on earth! Incase you didn't know I have always been a complete Disney fanatic and one day I hope to aspire to work for Walt and organise the events at the Disney parks. Additionally, I am hoping to do the CRP at Disney World, Florida, after finishing my A levels! Fingers crossed (oh and me toes)!

Heddy-Hoo, after school I was so bursting for a pee that I nearly pee'd my pantyhoes while walking into town. But praise be, my bladder of steel held it together until I arrived at Costa! Then Byron and I shared Black Forest hot chocolate with a rather snazzy gingerbread man. Can I just say... I know I've said this before but Costa's Christmas seasonal drinks are something out of this world... Hullah!
Okay so I've been having really good responses from people about my blog... Dankaa peopleless! I've also been asked by several people to feature in my blog, which is amazeballs!



So be free children of the world and bea happy!

Children in Need & the MI5

Guten Tag my little flower pots!

 

 









So I didn't have time to post yesterday because I was super duper busy- story of my life! So let me explain my day to you... First things first I received a pretty good response from Matt about his "bad hair day" that was the title and featured in my last blog. But he wanted me to take another picture just so you could see what his hair looks like normally. You know what these hair modals are like... you gotta keep up your salon cred in da hood.

 

Anyways, my lunchtime ended up turning into a MI5 mission which consisted of my friends Abbie (who has an amazing coat) and Byron rolling around on the floor while trying to be stealth like as much as possible. Now you're probably wondering why on earth are young and sophisticated (that's not constipated but sophisticated... made that mistake before) adults pretending to be spies. WELL... somewhere inside the building, unfortunately the location must be kept secret for undercover protocol, there was a rather awkward confrontation occurring. I have no idea what it was about but I'm sure if someone walked past and offered them a cookie all would be resolved... Maybe like a double chocolate chip one or something! I did have some awesome videos but unfortunately my phone crashed and I lost them (sad times these are).

 

After that adventurous scene, I walked into town with another Abi (thank god they all spell their names differently). After a trip to the bank and to some shops to get my friend Kyra's birthday present we went into Costa. Now if there's one thing that I love about Costa, is their Christmas seasonal drinks... Mmmmm! Both Abi and I had the Praline Cappuccino with gold sparkly dusting on top! I think my taste buds must of started singing "We wish you a Merry Christmas" because that drink was pure festive fun.

 

Later on when I got home, I threw my dinner down my throat and got ready as quick as possible to be ready to leave with Cloe and her sister (Natalie) at 5:30pm. Now the reason I was having to be speedy Gonzales is because I was helping Natalie with a Children In Need event at Club '73 Peterborough. Club '73 in Peterborough, is a constituted community group which offers leisure time for adults and adolescents with learning or social difficulties in Peterborough. Because it was Children In Need we set up stalls to raise money. These consisted of Naming the Tiger, Tombola, Raffle, Face painting, Arts and Crafts and Cake Decorating which was my stall. It was a great night and I was so happy to help! Fingers crossed that we raised loads of money!

 

Then after that I slept over at Cloe's house, but because we were so tired we just laid in bed and watched movies. Oh and I also introduced Cloe to my favourite TV show "That 70's Show"... Love that show!

Well today, I've just done loads of homework, because I'm not going to have time tomorrow as I am going to be starting at Huntingdon Radio station! So tune in at 104fm tomorrow afternoon!

 

Byeeee!

Bad hair day

Bonjour bogues d'amour!

So today's post is going to be pretty random if you ask me! Firstly, my day at school was pretty normal and consisted of long lessons and having a laugh with my buddies. So my friend Matt always has the most perfect hair... it's like he's constantly doing a hair product commercial or something... "Loreal because you're worth it"! Anyways, earlier on in the morning he was frantically asking around if anyone had any hair-spray. I think he thought he was having a bad hair day or something... Erm no! Matt, your hair was on point! Do nawt worry!
By lunchtime, I think he had given up because he was actually willing to tie his hair up in a mini man bun... Yes I even got a picture!

Then in English I had to take a picture of my friend Shannon's phone case because it's soooo beautiful! Lurv it :) Then mum, Byron and I went to Tesco and we tried on sexy coats and hats... Byron looks fabulous in this one! Da?

Because it's Children In Need tomorrow... I decided to search through my old dressing-up box and found a very ginger wig. Before I knew it, my alter-ego of Jessica Rabbit was in the room! Well that or a cheese puff!

Anyways I'm going to love you and leave you! Enjoy life and eat croissants!
