Where Have I Been?! & The TMI Tag

Hey there internet amigos! 

First of all, I hope you all had an amazing Christmas
 and a very happy New Year! I know I did! ✌

Secondly....I'm back!! I think the last time I posted on this blog was about a year ago when I was in the middle of GCSE preparation... *gasp*. I had so much revision to do and didn't have time to do anything else and as a result of that this blog kind of got abandoned.. I'm sorry I'm sorry, please don't hate me! Buuuuuttt... as it is the start of a brand new year I thought what better way to start off 2015 than to restart this blog! First thing you'll probably notice is that it has a new name. Now the reason behind this is that I think I kinda out grew the last one, I'm gonna be honest 2 years have gone by since I initially started this blog and now I no longer eat sour skittles or wear polo shirts! Oops.. I decided to call it "Confessions of a College Student" because I'm 16 now which means I go to Sixth Form College and I thought as most of my upcoming blog posts are going to be mostly lifestyle related and just miscellaneous things about my life, that that name seemed pretty apt. Something else you might notice is that I've 'redecorated' as it were. I decided that the old background just didn't suit my personality and it was time for a change, although I'll probably end up changing it multiple times through out the year no doubt! So to get back into things and let everyone know a bit about me as I've changed quite a lot since I last posted on here I'd do the TMI tag! (Late to the game I know..My bad!). So without further a do...

A Little Update

  Hey guys! ♥

Just a short one from me I'm afraid. I'm so sorry I haven't posted anything in well.. A very long time! With GCSEs just around the corner I have very little spare time which I like to spend just chilling out with family. I know it's extremely late but I hope everyone had a great 2013 and 2014 is greeting you with many happy adventures!

Thankyou soo much everyone, I'll try and post when I can but I can't make any promises. Sorry for being so crappy! 

God bless, peace out! ☮✌♥

Maths Is A Myth!

Hey internet people! ♥

I was sitting in class earlier and realised I haven't done a blog post in a very long time *bad Chloe*, and while recently I've been struggling with ideas on what to write a post on I thought I'd brainstorm a couple of ideas while I was bored in lesson today and I came up with a couple of good ones but you'll have to wait for a little bit to read those ;)

So today's topic is....

MATHS

1. Whoever came up with Sine,Cosine and Tangent literally needs to be shot. I'm not being funny but when are you ever gonna use it? It's like going into a shop going down the sweets isle and thinking oh I wonder what the cosine of that tictac is? I'm sorry but I can't ever see that happening!

2. Why does it all have to be so complicated? I was fine with simple algebra, but NOO we have to learn about 'upper and lower bounds' and 'cumulative data', how that is even classed as Maths I have no clue. And not only is it complicated, there's frickin' truck loads of it, and we're supposed to remember it all?!! I'm not joking my textbook is 30 chapters long with a total of about 500 pages, what the f***? (Just so you can see what I have to lug around all day I'll put a picture below)

3. I don't understand why knowing the in and outs of a bloody triangle is important? I mean if you want to go on to be a shape specialist then sure I get it, but for those of us who want to have normal occupations then I don't think it's all that necessary.. If the person that came up with this hell hole that we call 'Mathematics' isn't in a mental home by now I'd be pretty damn surprised. I mean not only do you have to know how many sides, faces and vertices it has, then you have to be able to calculate the perimeter, find the perpendicular height, fine the sine, cosine and tangent, I never knew you could do so many things with a bloody shape! I swear half of the Maths GCSE is pure crap ahah.

-

Well that's enough ranting for one day! If any you agree with any of the things I mentioned above please leave a comment below, I hope I'm not the only one that finds Maths confusing! I'm sorry it's taken me a long time to write another blog post, with GCSE's creeping up it's been hard to find some free time to sit down and write, but I promise I'll try my hardest to keep it up hehe.

If you haven't read my last ancient post (which I'm sure most of you have) then you can click HERE! and go check it out. 

Until next time peeps,

God bless, peace out! ☮✌♥

5 Ways To Be Happy!

Hey there fellow blog readers! ❤

So recently I've been feeling really down and not myself at all. The last time I was happy or even smiled was when I was in Germany like 2 weeks ago. I hate being upset it sucks so bad, so I thought I'd try and be positive and ''always look on the bright side of life'' ( That was just for you Robert ;D ), and I came up with a couple of ways to stay positive and most importantly BE HAPPY!

~

1. Do something that you love to do - Whenever I'm upset one of the best ways to cheer myself up is to dance. Whether I'm having a lesson or even if I'm just doing a quick Samba around my bedroom/Tango down my hallway just stick on some Ballroom or Latin music and I'm automatically in a better mood. It just helps me take my mind off things and gives me a chance to clear my head. Just doing something you love doing and makes you happy can have the biggest affect on your mood and make you feel 100 times better, whether its like me; dancing, or even reading or drawing. 

2. Surround yourself with people you love and who love you, (family, friends) - Recently my friends have played a HUGE part in cheering me up. It's times like these that life reveals who your true friends are, and I definitely know who I shall not be wasting my time on anymore. I have a habit of trusting way to easy, yeah that's not a smart idea, all that happens is it comes straight back and kicks you up the ass. So at the moment trusting people has become really hard as many people have been proving I made a big mistake trusting them. But there are a couple of people who are always there, always at my side, and stick by me whenever I'm upset and they will always have my trust. Iloveyouguys (you know who you are). Surrounding yourself with people who love you and just simply having a little chat or just being in their company will cheer you up. I know when I'm with people from dance I constantly have a huge silly smile on my face even if we're just sitting there, being in their company automatically makes me happy.

3. Forgive and forget - Let go, let go of the past and get on with the present. Don't let the past consume you, stand up and move on! Moving on is the hardest thing I've ever had to do, but it has to be done. Life goes on, time passes by, taking the first step is always the most difficult but once you take it everything else falls into place and you begin to wonder why were scared of taking that step. Just take a moment to think ''Why am I worrying about all of this?'' let go of everything and move on and live life, enjoy being you. Forgiving and forgetting is a good way of clearing your head and helping you to be happy.

4. Smile! - Smile, even if it's for no reason. Just smile, it's been proven to release endorphin's, just like when eating chocolate or on a bigger scale; how do I say this in a pg way?, ''making love'', screw it, getting it on haha. Smiling makes you feel good, try it. Prove me wrong ;)

Lastly..

5. Just be optimistic, think about the good things in life, embrace them and you'll be fine ;) 

~

That's it for today's post. I hope if any of you are ever upset or are just having a rough day and everything's getting to you that you read this and it helps you to be happy! If you ever need a shoulder to cry on or just a friend to have a rant to, I'm here, always! ❤

If you haven't already read my previous blog post, and I can't think of a reason why you guys shouldn't have ;) Go and read it, it's awesome! You can go and read it right here.

I'll see y'all next time!

Peace out mofo's I love you all! ❤

East Sussex Dance Germany Trip 2013

Summer, My Mum, Me, Marcus, Floss, Richard, Indie, Andrew, Maya,
Julia, Mike, Amy, Kimberly, Beth, Daniel, Emily, Peter, Emma, Oscar,
Megan, Lydia and Eliza

Hey there everyone! ❤

Long time no see huh? I just want to say before I start this post I'm really sorry that I haven't done a blog post in nearly 2 weeks now, I've been super busy and I haven't had time to sit down properly and write on my blog. But I'm back and better than ever so without any other interruptions... Here we go!

~

Last weekend I went to Cologne in Germany with my dance school and it was one of the best weekends ever. Cologne is such a beautiful place, I'm really glad that I had the chance to explore the city and discover a new place that I'd never been to before. ESD went to Cologne last year but I didn't go so I didn't really know what to expect, let's just say I definitely wasn't disappointed. It was a perfect opportunity to meet new people and get to know my fellow dancers even better. Everything was so perfectly organised, the bus to take us to and from the airport was on time, our hotel was lovely, all of the staff were really friendly - They even opened up the breakfast room at midnight just so we could do some Salsa practice! All of our rooms were on the same floor so we were only a couple of doors away from each other which was really fun. Also the hotel was placed just outside a little town square full of interesting shops and water features that my friends and I loved walking around and checking out all the fun German products that they don't have in the UK.

I don't think they have enough energy drinks in Germany..

They have fairy Capri-Sun's, Oh My Lord.

The little village we were in

One of the many water features we found

Water Feature Number 2

Nice photo bombing Marcus ;)

Me and My Girls ❤

My famous ''Willy Drink'', it wasn't until
I got to the airport on the way home that
I realised ''Billy Boy'' is a brand of German
Condoms...

Alex didn't want her hair to get wet...

 The flight was so quick as soon as the pilot said we'd be landing in 10 minutes me and Summer looked at each other really shocked, it felt like 5 minutes not 50.

DAY 2

 All of us caught the train into the city and we all went off in our own little groups and explored the city. We saw the Cathedral which was soo huge! I heard it was big, but big is an understatement, it's ENORMOUS! It's really beautiful, and the river is stunning I could have sat and looked at it all day. That afternoon Me, Summer, Floss and Alex all went down to the Euro Dance Centre to do some training and my god it's soo nice in there! Their studios are really spacious and have lots of mirrors in which is excellent. I loved how they'd painted the ceiling and walls to look like a jungle it was really creative and made me smile. All the people that worked there were lovely and they let us use the studio whenever we wanted til 10 o'clock which was really kind of them. They even had a bar! I thought that was really cool. I hope that when we get a studio it's like that one.

I'm never gonna forget those studios!

This is only part of the cathedral hahah

Me and My Girls by the river ❤

Panorama of the river

We actually saw a 6ft inflatable, smoking, penis..

That evening it was around 10-11 o'clock and all us teenagers were still awake so our teacher took us out in the hall way and started teaching us Salsa and Sequence that most of us had never done before, we all really enjoyed it so for a bit of fun we decided to do it in the competition the next day. The next day was the day of the competition so we were all very excited. The venue was really nice, like most other buildings that we'd seen that weekend. The dance floor was nice and big so there was lots of room for us to dance on and the floor wasn't sticky or slippery which was really good because there's nothing that a dancer hates more than a sticky floor! Not that there were many people on the floor at the same time. There was like 4 German schools and 4 British schools and there wasn't many people competing which meant the rounds were either Semi-Finals or a straight final which was actually really nice. It meant that we all got a chance to actually be acknowledged by the judges and have our minute of glory sort of thing.

1st - Gold Ballroom Solos, 2nd - Gold Paso Doble Solos,
 2nd - Royal Empress Tango Sequence, 2nd - Silver/Gold Tango Couples,
2nd - Silver/Gold Jive Couples, 3rd - Couples Salsa

 My friend injured herself while she was in the middle of her round and a teacher from one of the German schools kindly came over with an ice pack and got one of her students Mum's to who was a physio to come in an strap her up which was soo sweet of her. Overall the general atmosphere of the competition was really lovely, I much preferred it to any of the competitions I've been to in the UK. I managed to win 6 medals, which was amazing because I haven't won a medal in well, a long time. I extremely enjoyed my weekend in Cologne with all my friends and dance school. I feel like I've gained so much from this experience, I've made some amazing friends and also become closer with the ones I already had. I'm so gutted that it's all over, I wish I could go back right now because I miss it so much. Last weekend was one of the best times of my life and I'm never going to forget it. I can't wait for next year so we can all go back and do it all over again.

Roll on Germany 2014! ❤

Auf wiedersehen! (Bye) ❤

A Trip To The Beach

                                                Harry, Me, Annalia, Phoebe and Aaron

Oh hey there internet friends! ❤

So today me and my friends had a little trip down to Brighton Beach, (the best beach ever may I add). We had SO much fun. We went to the beach, walked around the lanes looking for the ''Nerds'' (a.k.a Lewis,Josh,Rian and Daniel), and dragged the boys round all the shops. So I thought as today was one of the most fun days I've had in a long time why not share it with all you lot ;) So here are some photos we took inbetween all the fun!

The Gang ❤

I like covering Phoebe in rocks :D

The boys just cant get enough of eachother ;)

We're so indie it's unreal, although I don't think the
boys have quite got the hang of it bless them ❤

We just love group cuddles  

Phoebe loves getting buried ;)

Aww Harry ❤

I love all these guys soo much it's actually unreal. It was a long day packed full of laughs, giggles, games and cuddles. I genuinely haven't had that much fun in, well, a very long time! Spending time with the people that mean the most to me makes me very happy :)

I'm going to go now, these guys have worn me out so much if I don't go to bed soon I might just faint, I also have a dance competition tomorrow and I have to get up early and I'm not a morning person. That should be interesting!

See you all next time!

BYE! ❤

May Favourites!

Hey internet amigos! ❤

June has finally graced us with it's presence and brought the sun along too! Which means it's time for a monthly favourites post, so I thought I'd share some of the things that I've been loving this May :) 

TV:

Okey so there's one main tv programme that I've been really loving this May, and for those of you that know me really well this is going to be very obvious. Of course, it's "Made In Chelsea". I only started watching it a couple of weeks ago and I'm already hooked! I probably should have started watching it from the beginning but hey ho. Some of the people are actually hilarious  ( *hint* *hint* Jamie Lang). It's also set in London which means I have to love it ;) The people are all lovely (well most) and Binky, Stevie & Jamie are all my favourites, I love them loads!

Drink:

This one is a little random but I just had to put it in. I have been absolutely loving VANILLA COKE & FANTA FRUIT TWIST. If you're not from the UK you probably don't know what they are so here's a picture! They're soo yummy and I literally don't drink anything else. (They also do coke with names on now, I'm still looking for my name. They have an "Imran", "Sandeep" and an "Amit", BUT NO CHLOE. I'm determined to find one with my name on).

Film:

So you may or may not know that I am a MASSIVE movie geek, it's safe to say I must have about 300 hundred in my house and that's the ones I know about! But there are two films that I've really loved this May.

1. Les Misérables

Another thing I'm very fond of; Musicals (Hence my love for Les Mis). There are loads of brilliant actors/actresses in it e.g. Anne Hathaway, Helena Bonham - Carter, Amanda Seyfried and Sacha Baron Cohen. I don't cry at many films but I have to admit I did tear up a little :( "On My Own" and "I Dreamed A Dream" are my all time favourite songs from the movie. End of. 

Next

2. Pitch Perfect

First of all, I love Anna Kendrick, I saw her in Twilight and loved her so I had to see this. I was actually supposed to go see this for my birthday back in December but we couldn't coz the cinema screen was screwed up or something, I dunno, but I was pretty gutted :( But now it's out on DVD I can drive my Mum insane by watching it over and over again!

Songs:

There have been 3 songs this May that I've had on repeat on my iPod all month.

1. Dumb - Tich

I actually went to see Olly Murs on his tour in March and she was supporting him and she performed it, my friends really didn't like her or any of her songs but I thought she was great!

2. Explosions - Ellie Goulding

I love, love, LOVE, this song. I've loved all of her songs but this is by far my favourite.

Well done Ellie, you haven't let me down :) 

3. Panic Chord - Gabrielle Aplin

This song has been stuck in my head all May and even now! It's soo catchy and I just love it, I don't know what else to say but that haha :D

I hope you enjoyed my "May Favourites" blog post!

I'll see all you sexy people next time!

ADIOS INTERNET AMIGOS! ❤
