Drake and The Weeknd

Normally I would go to a concert liking the artist or group and have the support act as someone I've heard of maybe thought was alright, but when me and one of my close friends booked to see Drake we were so happy to find out the support act was The Weeknd who we both absolutely love. So on Tuesday 11th we went to Manchester to see them both and to sum up my night it was the best concert I've been to by far and would love to see them both again, however the downside was that I came out with my clothes smelling of weed. Here are some of the photo's from our night:

Passion, Is It Worth It?

Just the other day I was considering how much I hate talking about where I want to go and what I want to do with my life. But really I have no reason to be as I should be proud that I know exactly what I want to do with my life at such a young age. But as I browsed my cousins blog and found a very emotional post I was reminded of why I'm ashamed to have a little guidance here is her post. Her post just makes me consider sometimes whever it is worth it just typing on my laptop daily and putting shed loads of passion into my blog and occasionally getting the odd reply?

P.s. Incase you didn't already know I aspire to be a police officer when I'm older as I love the idea of having a fast and active lifestyle and more importantly working within the law.

Good Vibes

So it's nearly exam season so all the pressure is being put on about revising and exam technique and I've had loads of homework recently and I have just been struggling to get on with mainly my textiles work because i find it hard to concentrate if I'm not fully calm and if I'm not calm I physically can't draw. I may be a little OCD with drawing because I'm not happy until it is completely perfect so concentrating has become really importantly recently and I've found certain song have helped me concentrate so I've put them into a playlist on spotify because i thought it would be helpful for others as it leads up to exam season.

Justin Bieber | Out of Control? Or Just Expressing Himself?

Recently Justin Bieber has been one of the main attractions in the news all sorts from the questionable egging of the neighbours house to receiving a DUI in a yellow Lamborghini. But the most recent scandal is Bieber being charged with assaulting a limo driver in Toronto, now should we think the worst of him? Or consider that really it was a drunken mistake, which happens to many of his age around the world but it isn't published, which he has handed himself in without any witness' and even the victim from having to stand in court and causing a lot of distress and upset.

But should we be seeing his sudden impulses for drastic measures to cry for help from his family, friends and fans?

PETA

In the past year my eldest sister has had the most fantastic journey through Asia! It all started when she applied to spend a year abroad at HKU (hong kong university). From there she travelled to all sorts of places including the likes of Macau, The Phillipines, Cambodia, Thailand, KualaLumpur, Shanghai, Singapore and The Borneo Jungle! This was all before she spent her last four weeks in Manilla where she was an intern at PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals). Here is one of the many blog post she wrote http://blog.petaasiapacific.com/activism/the-intern-experience-briony-thompson. Be sure to share the page on Facebook and twitter to help support the cause.

Tumblr.

So my friend ~~forcefully~~ persuaded me to get an account on Tumblr. Now Tumblr has always been a very daunting subject to me because I thought you had to have an amazing packed full life and take great photo's to fit in on there. But really you don't because you can just re-blog post's, quotes ect. that you enjoy.

So here is my Tumblr account address go and check it out:

Shrewsbury!

Last weekend me and part of my family took a lethargic trip to Shrewsbury, which is the capital of Shropshire, as this is where my mother and her family grew up. Instead of writing about this holiday I thought I'd make a vlog whilst I was there. I was inspired to vlog when I saw my cousin vlogging our holiday to Norfolk, I did also vlog one of our later holidays to Norfolk but the software I used crashed on me ( Technology these days).

Hope you enjoy!
