Yesterday I turned 16. Finally. I am so happy that I’m 16 haha!! 
My birthday started very early. At 6am when I go downstairs to read my bible and make tea Maria had made my breakfast and a little sign saying ‘Happy Birthday’ and a flower. I was so happy. I love it when people do things like that. I don’t need presents 😀 If people make me something then its more special because they took the time to think about it and what I like 🙂 

Then when I came home from school we went to see my mum and ate Harry Gow Dream Rings 😀 

Then…  my friends came and we ate dinner. A buffet in fact! 😀 

Now, my presents 😀 😀 

I love them all and I am sooo thankful!! here are a couple of close ups:

As you can probably see, my camera was the main gift. Or the thing that I wished for. Today I bought a memory card and took a couple of pictures. I am sure there will be many more to come 😀 But here are a few: 

I may have to steel this bag from Rachael 😉 I used it for the sponsered walk today. I arrived back at the school in record time (for me:D ) 3 hours.. that’s pretty good since it was about 13 miles. One year I got home at 4.30pm lol!! So 12.30 is amazing 😀

Today was the day we headed for a deliciously wonderful Dores Breakfast. As always, it didn’t let us down. Most of us had French Toast with Maple Syrup and Bacon. I don’t like bacon and never have (as far as I can remember) and its Vegetarian week so I just order it for Rachael or Rachaels brother who is always delighted when I don’t finish my French Toast and Bacon lol!! Anyway, it was wonderful and I even tasted the highly loved Banana and Strawberry smoothie. Love it! Before having our breakfast we took Soly for walk along the beach. It was cold, to say the least. I was definitely not particularly dressed for the freezing weather. I was wearing a dress. Not the best of ideas. But the faithful Peta and Maria were prepared with a jumper and jacket that kept me looking hilarious but lovely and warm 🙂

We returned back to the Finlaysons house for tea and I hanged out with Rachael for a but while Becca was picking up her new car!! It’s SO cool… and she’s an awesome driver 😀 I love your car Becca! 😀 Afterwards, while Rachael was hanging out with her school friends, Becca, Peta and I went into town for a Costa, to cut some keys and Becca bought some beautiful blue vans. This is when I really wish I was a size 5. No one is size 6! We had a funny experience cutting the keys where Peta thought that it would take an hour or two until he’d finished but with in the space of 20 seconds he’d already finished. Peta was absolutely astounded which made the key cutters day haha!

We met up with Peta’s parents and ate dinner in a restaurant. Rachael and I shared a plate of Nachos… You’ll see how big it is in the pictures but seriously how could even 5 people eat all that! I think we should of got a small portion and shared it. It was yummy though! They even soled Ginger Beer which was ace!!
Lastly, as it is Saturday night we went to Coffee Affair where some of our church play music. It was really fun, especially because we got to embarrass Rachael by dancing around the street. And it was worth it because people in the streets started going into the Cafe. Great! 🙂 Now, I am tired and Rachael is staying at mine overnight 🙂 I will leave you with some pictures:

The One Day I Don’t Wear Flip Flops.

The one day I don’t wear flip flops it’s the warmest day of the year. 
On Saturday we had a birthday celebration for my friend who turns 14 this Wednesday. It was a fun packed day!! 
First, we went a a beauty salon to get our eyebrows waxed. Normally this would be fun to go to a beauty salon. Yes, it was for everyone else who had got their eye brows waxed before but I hadn’t so it was painful. But I’m happy now and it was funny afterwards when we all hid behind sunglasses shamed by our red skin. We then went to Tesco to get some food for going to the beach.

I did not expect it to be this warm… saying that I wear flip flops in the rain but I didn’t on Saturday. Doesn’t make sense. It was OK though because the beach is best in bare feet. Or as I say “Let’s wear our bare feet to the beach.” 
It was a beautiful day. After a while we went to Outfit to try on clothes. This is where three friends being the same cloth size comes in handy. We are known for taking a bunch of clothes and throwing them over the changing cubicles to try all sorts on. My wonderful friend surprised Rachael and I with gifts. She gave me a beautiful dress that I tried on in Topshop and really loved and Rachael shoes that she also loved. The dress is now my favorite ever and I’ve decided to be the first probably ever to wear a dress into an exam but I’m doing it 😀 maybe not with flip flops though 😀 

At four o’clock we picked Becca up from the train station and got ready for going to Rajah for dinner. We wore our new outfits and enjoyed a delicious meal with lots of friends. Afterwards, we went to Coffee affair for a little while and then came back to Rachaels to stay over. It was so much fun and surprisingly we didn’t go to bed at 3am. We actually went to bed at about 12.30/1am. That’s quit an attachments considering there were 6 girls. We ending the evening by watching “Pitch Perfect” and eating more yummy food. It was a good day! 🙂 Here are some pictures.

And I also bought some shorts yesterday haha!
