I am a huge procrastinator, seriously; I leave everything to the last minute, I am even writing this blog post the day before it is due to go up. I think I get it from my dad because he is so laid back he is practically falling over. whereas my mum on the other hand is so organised and needs to get things done NOW, I wish I was more like that because my life would be so much easier; but like always I never learn. I just cant get myself motivated to do the things that NEED to be done instead of things that I want to do because it is more interesting or fun. I keep saying to myself that I need to get this and that done but then that annoying little voice inside my head, you know the one i'm talking about; saying, 'do it later, it can wait, this is more interesting' and as always I give in the that stupid little voice but then when it comes to the deadline of the task I should have done two weeks ago, so I end up freaking out and having a massive panic because im running out of time. urrhhh when will I ever learn!

Are you a procrastinator like me? or are you organised and like to get things done as soon as possible? I would love to know. Also if you are an organised person please leave a response of some helpful tips that you have that help you to stay organised and motivated.

The Kissing Booth

 
Hi, you may or may not know but I am a massive bookworm and I have recently read 'The kissing booth' by Beth Reekles who is well know for her stories on Wattpad. I would just like to say; I would definitely recommend 'the kissing booth'. if you are into teen romance books that you kind of wish that you were the main character because you relate to them or because they always end up getting the cute boy then this book is for you.
 
 
Meet Rochelle Evans: pretty, popular - and never been kissed.
 
Meet Noah Flynn: badass, volatile - and a total player.
 
When Elle decides to run a kissing booth at the school's Spring Carnival, she locks lips with Noah and her life is turned upside down. Her head says to keep away, but her heart wants to draw closer - this romance seems far from fairy tale and headed for heartbreak. But will Elle get her happily ever after?
 
I literally read this book in 1-2 days because it was that good I just couldn't put it down. the whole time you are reading it you are constantly like a) I wish I was Elle and b) I really want Noah and Elle to be together and catching yourself going through different emotions and making weird noise all the way through the book but then you are also thinking..... what about Lee. As I said before you do go through a lot of emotions as you read the book and sometimes you do relate to Elle in what she thinks, feels and what she is going through.
 
I would honestly say this is one of my favourite books. so much so that i gave it to one of my friends for Christmas and she LOVED it too, she read it for the entire flight when she went on holiday to Portugal.  
 
If you want to check out more of Beth Reekles work then I suggest you head over to Wattpad or buy her other two books, Rolling Dice and Out of Tune.
 
I hope you enjoyed this little book review. let me know if you want any more or you think I shouldn't do them. Also tell me what your favourite book is or a book you recommend as I'm always on the hunt for a good book (not that I need any more haha)
 
thanks for reading

Would you rather beauty tag!!!

picture from http://belle-amiebeauty.blogspot.mx/2013/05/tag-would-you-rather-beauty-edition.html
1) Q. would you rather go out with messy hair and nice makeup or nice hair and no makeup?
    A. nice hair and no makeup

2) Q. would you rather shave your eyebrows off or have your eyelashes fall out?
    A. Eyelashes fall out because you can just wear fake eyelashes but then again you can always draw on eyebrows

3) Q. would you rather be forced to shop at only MAC or Sephora for the rest of your life?
    A. well considering we don't have a Sephora here in the UK but I'm guessing it is kind of like boots or superdrug. so i think i would have to say Sephora because then you could have lots of different brands and for a lot cheaper.

4) Q. would you rather wear lipgloss/ lipliner look or an 80's perm?
    A. lip combo because I don't think I could pull off an 80's perm somehow

5) Q. would you rather leave the house with an obvious foundation line or overdone blush?
    A. overdone blush - i will just make it look like I'm really flushed or embarrassed haha

6) Q. would you rather wear MC Hammer pants (trousers) or biker shorts out in public?
    A. MC Hammer pants even though I don't think I could pull them off, haha

7) Q. would you rather have a bad orange-y spray tan or really weird tan lines that cant be removed?
    A bad orange-y tan because it will gradually fade

8) Q. would you rather have a bad hair cut or bad hair colour?
    A. This one I really struggled with because they are really both as bad as each other but i think im going to have to go with......... bad hair colour because you can either wear a hat until for a couple of weeks until you can re dye it.

9) Q. would you rather have twitter or youtube taken away forever?
    A. well considering i don't have a youtube channel and I'm constantly checking twitter I think I will go with youtube but then again I watch youtube videos all the time. lets just hope that it just take away your account on youtube because then that way i can still watch videos but i just cant subscribe or anything. *stop reading too much into this Becca it is not real!*

10) Q. would you rather give up using makeup brushes or mascara?
      A. this one is not hard for me. makeup brushes. I can live without brushes but not mascara. sometimes I just put on some BB cream and some mascara and I'm done. so definitely makeup brushes.


what do you think. are you the same as me or do you think something different. please feel free to put it in the comments, I would love to find out what you would choose because I am nosey like that
