My new bedroom at uni

I saw someone do a similar post to this a while ago and found it really interesting, so i thought i would do one! I'm back at uni in a different house this year and i really love my bedroom and all the little things i brought for it and the colours, also i can't have posters on my walls at home cause my mom hates them, so my room is full of posters when i'm at uni :)











 This is the make-up i brought to uni with me, bringing it all would be very impractical!

Cupcakes with a hint of Nutella!




Didn't have much to decorate it with so used whatever we could find! Penguin bar, gold bar, white chocolate spread, nutella, jam, and peanut butter!

Is it me or does the one with the scary happy face look like Jigsaw from Saw? Freakkkkyyy.


Ingredients
125g butter, softened
125g caster sugar
125g self raising flour
2 eggs
2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon nutella (optional)

I just mixed all the ingredients together until i thought the consistency looked right and then popped the mixture into the little silicone cases. We added a tablespoon of nutella to the mixture just for the extra hint of chocolate and for a cute marble effect. Cook on 180 degrees for 15-20 minutes, then decorate!

Shiny new thing




So my ipod has completely broken, and i really can't afford a new one, so i was looking on ebay for mp3 players and came across this one, it was under £10 and hopefully will do the job, and the shiny blue colour is the best thing about it! This will make walks to and from uni/the gym a bit less boring :)

Brought this today but don't know wether to use it, when i have my hair a bit lighter i always want it dark again, and when its dark i always want it lighter!

Dark?

Light?


Also went to the freshers fayre today, which i found to be a complete waste of time apart from getting a free pizza voucher! :D Then i went to the gym which is slowly but surely getting very busy as term is starting, it was so much better when it was completely empty!

Birthday girl!

So it was my sisters 22nd birthday today and we went to the cinema to see Hope Springs, it was actually really good, after watching the advert i felt like i had seen the movie already because it was quite a long and in depth advert, but i hadn't, it had a lot more in it than just what was in the advert, it was such a good movie! I recommend it to anyone. As it was her birthday we just had to get one of the ridiculously priced refreshments.. and obviously we chose the extra large tango ice blast (partly because it comes in an amazing long cup but also cause it just tastes SO yum!). We also had a 2 for 1 voucher which we completely forgot to used and could of paid £6, a bit annoying!

Birthday girl with her drink!



Afterwards we went to handmade burger co. I've been once before and it was yearsss ago so i actually don't remember the food at all but we saw that it was 30% off on mondays so we decided to go there, it was amazing! The burgers are delish, we got an american cheese burger, and a stuffed chilli and cheese burger, we shared both of them so we got try both, yummy! And the Cajun chips are amazeballs. But we found it was waaaay too much food for two people and were stuffed! Before the discount the bill was £27 but with student discount it came to around £18, you can imagine how happy we were at saving this amount!

We wanted to go for cocktails afterwards, we found somewhere but when we got there it looked totally deserted and rather posh, and as we were still carrying our massive obnoxious tango cup because obviously we had to take it home with us, they might not of appreciated this in a sophisticated cocktail bar, so we went to the pub for yummy cider and blackcurrant, even the bar man asked where we had been looking rather oddly at the cup.. LOL.
So full of food and especially drink right now.. don't think i have ever had so many different drinks in one day, orange squash, protein shake, vanilla frappucino, tango ice blast, diet coke, cider and blackcurrant, wayyy too much sugar i feel quite hyper!

This is what happens when you leave your make-up brushes next to an open window, that will teach me! Took me SO long to try and get all the beads up with a dust pan and brush so reverted to just hoovering them up!


Did a little bit of food shopping in town today, i love getting fruit from the market its sooo much cheaper it makes me happy. Then we went to Iceland to get ingredients for mac and cheese, i've NEVER had mac and cheese before and always wanted to try it, and found an amazing recipe of youtube by thegridmonster (or Ingrid), so me and my sister are going to try to follow the recipe tonight! Also the cashier in Iceland was meant to give us around £4 change, and gave us £4 plus a £5 note, so we practically got our shopping for free, yayy! And obviously had to get some more of the little 15p juices..!
