My Week In Pictures

A little exciting snippet into my life.... Warning!! The following images may contain scenes of a Christmasy nature....

These pictures are not really in order, especially as these two happened yesterday, but I could not contain my excitement of actually getting to see the Coca Cola truck yesterday in the middle of Liverpool! I didn't even know it did a tour of the UK in the run up to Christmas, and I just pointed at it with my mouth open in shock. It looked so wonderful, and I'm not just saying that because Laura and I got a free small can of coke!

 This looks so much prettier in real life... So Laura and I had a day trip to Liverpool yesterday to do a bit of Christmas shopping. I bought my family the most amazing presents which I can't wait for them to open on Christmas Day! Aaaaah it's so exciting! I did also buy myself a couple of things, but I can never resist! 

These two were indeed two of the things I bought. It's really weird, because me and Laura keep buying the same things, and I didn't even realise she had this eye shadow pallet until I asked her if the colours suit me. This is the first ever eye shadow pallet I have bought as I usually use ones that are given to me as presents. But I couldn't resist these colours. They are so pretty!! I tried the shimmery pink with the darkest tone today and thought it looked fab. And the best thing about Barry M is that it's cruelty free!

I also got this nail varnish from Barry M in Red Wine, which, I'm not gonna lie, looked a lot like blood when I was putting it on. I've wanted a colour like this for a while now; I've got a strong, bright red, but this is a lovely deep scarlet colour.

So I took a selfie of myself during the week. That happened. I'm not good with selfies, but I liked this one.

I made gingerbread biscuits!!!!!!!!! I actually made a gingerbread man for each of my house mates. They said they all liked them, which made me happy. But what they didn't know is just how many of these I ate before they could get to them... Not even sorry.

This happened a little over a week ago, but my history course mates and I went to Patisserie Valerie for cake and coffee, and oh my goodness, it was amazing. I cannot convey to you how delicious this slice of strawberry gateaux was. It was so light, but still so creamy. My friend, Emily, had the chocolate one, but I didn't think I could handle it. I had a mocha with it as I was feeling jazzy... yes, jazzy = mocha time. Honestly one of the nicest places I've been for an afternoon kinda tea thing, and it wasn't even too expensive.

This happened. There are only 6 of us in the house, yet this is how many calendars we have... and since this picture was taken, I think we've got a couple more. Mine is obviously the Doctor Who one, but I also have the one below it.... you will soon seen why.

I absolutely loved this when I bought it... I got it with the BBC Doctor Who magazine, which cost me a few bob, but I definitely thought it was worth it... Until I opened it up on the evening of the 1st December...

...And found this. A toy?!?! What is this?! Where is the chocolate?! No where in the magazine or on the box did it say it was not a chocolate calendar, but contained toys. Usually people would think this was better, but I was looking forward to chocolate!! I felt even worse when reminded how cocky I was being because my advent calendar was so thick, it must contain the best and biggest chocolate of the lot. But no. No... that was not the case. So Jess bought me another, CHOCOLATE advent calender the next day :') But my army of Doctor Who monsters is still slowly growing...
