My life in Instagram

I cut my fringe to short so clipped it back. My boyfriend got a star wars xbox kinect and I've played it loads.  Had my first ever wedding invite! Had a chocolate Sundae in Verdi's.
My friends dog shortly before he died :( I won Lucy's giveaway! I tried doing Americana shorts and failed. Three men in a boat in Mumbles.
Lots of dessert in Verdi's. Painted my nails red from Lucy's giveaway. My outfit whilst Castle exploring. Castell Coch.
Starry ceiling in Castell Coch. Stained glass in Castell Coch. Caerphilly Castell. Snapshot of my giveaway.
Mini make up shopping haul. I made gingerbread men. I went Paintball with work. My book arrived, I've been reading this series for years!

So it's actually been awhile since I did an Instagram diary like post, and this has been over the past few weeks. I went to Mumbles a few times which was nice when the sun popped out for like a day or two, I love going to Verdi's, the ice cream is always so yummy. I had a nice catch up with some uni friends and got a wedding invite off one of them, who I'm also planning a baby shower for!

I tried DIYing some shorts but it didn't work out, so I'll have to try again the next dry, sunny day that we have since I do them outside, and there's some photos of things I've bought/won/will be giving away. I went over my friends the other day and took this photo of her dog Sioni, I love him but sadly he died the next day so it's kinda bittersweet this last photo of him, but wasn't he cute?

I also went Castle exploring with my boyfriend, he's really sweet. He's thought up all of these activities we can do before he leaves for Portugal in September, and wrote them in different cards. Then each time we do an activity, he'll give me another three cards to pick from, like in a TV show! Next on the list should be a trip to Bristol Zoo, but we can only go on Saturdays as he works weekdays, but I tend to work weekends and can't book another one off till three weeks! Insane! We went to Castell Coch and Caerphilly Castell (my spelling may be wrong on the last one) and it was fun. I took loads of pictures and learnt a lot about Lord Bute who restored these castles plus Cardiff Castle. 

I also went Paintballing with work on Monday which was so much fun! Despite the fact that it was raining, I got covered in mud, bruised and these random four mean guys played with us. They cheated SO much it drove the rest of us mad as it was meant to be a group booking of just us. Oh well. I had to go to work straight after though for a close and I was SO tired, and only just had enough time to shower and eat food, and I have a weird cut bruise on my arm when I surrendered! I got hit twice, and each time had my hands and gun up and walked to the dead zone, and each time I got shot THREE times! When you're not meant to get shot at, so I was fuming! In the end if I got hit or ran out of paintballs I stayed where I was because it was ridiculous how much the other team cheated! Anyway I'm ranting to much, oops, but it was fun. 

And lastly I've been reading that book. It's the latest in the Stravaganza series by Mary Hoffman which I've been reading since I was like 13 and they come out every two years or so I'm happy it's finally come out, and I need something new to read. I haven't read anything since The Hunger Games so my goal of reading more slipped. Speaking of The Hunger Games, I've made all three of my brothers read it, and my friends, and they've made their girlfriends read etc, its fun! My youngest brother's just starting the third book which makes me happy since he never reads anything and the rest of us are bookworms. We're planning a Hunger Games film night when the DVD comes out, which is nice. I never really do anything with all my brothers, and we never really all love the same thing, at most three of us will like something but one won't so it's pretty cool. And if you haven't read them yet, then you should! :P

P.S Sorry for this very random post and I am slowly catching up with blog reading, but every blog I go on has about four posts on average so it's taking awhile.

P.P.S Don't forget to enter my first bloggiversary giveaway!
