Confidence

So this is something everyone in the world suffers with, not one person is 100% confident with the way they look. We all have something we don't like about ourselves but just remember that that thing that you don't like, be it your thighs, your tummy area or your nose, someone else might actually love. 

 We all have good days and bad days when we look in the mirror and think 'i actually look okay today' or 'Oh my god look at that massive spot on my forehead' i know i have days like these. Now there are things about myself that i don't like and i have days where i think i look atrocious, but you know what.... who cares!
We live in a society where you are taught you are not pretty unless you look like this, or you weigh this amount, but that is not true in the slightest. Everyone comes in all shapes and sizes and they are all unique and beautiful, don't ever be sad or ashamed of yourself because you don't look like the girl on the cover of Vogue magazine, because not even they look like that due to the power of editing.
Be confident in your own skin, wear what you want to wear and strut your stuff because you are beautiful and don't let anyone tell you different (sorry for being cheesy there) Confidence is the best accessory so show it off and the best thing about it is.... it's free. 

If people tell you that you are too fat, too skinny, too tall, too short don't listen to them because in all honesty they are probably jealous. They have looked at you and thought that you are really pretty and that they wished they looked like you or they wish they had your confidence, so don't hate them, just feel sorry for them that they haven't found there freedom to careless about what others think. 

No matter how much confidence you have you will always have your bad days, but you wouldn't be human if you didn't; but when you do have those bad days embrace it because you are not perfect, nobody is perfect; so don't be afraid to go out with no make up on because chances are no one will care and won't be looking at you thinking you look horrible. However if they do seem to care then it doesn't matter because it has nothing to do with them and they are not worth your time. So don't down grade yourself to boost their ego because they won't do it for you in return.
Remember. embrace who you are and what you look like, don't give a *@?!% what other people think, the people that matter and that are worth your time are going to love you no matter what.
Smile, Chin up and go for it, see what happens, you might surprise yourself

Good Luck

Ship recked

You are on a boat sailing across the high seas, looking out into the deep clear blue horizons when suddenly you hit a big rock (Titanic style) causing a big hole in the boat in which you notice it has started sinking, you turn to grab all of you processions however you then realise that the boat is sinking faster and faster. you only have enough time to grab 5 beauty items. What 5 beauty items do you choose?

i would choose:

Beauty Products: 

SPF - because you don't know what the weathers going to be so you want to be prepared for that blazing sun if it happens to make an appearance because you don't want to get sunburnt. although to be honest you have bigger problems to worry about.

Chapstick - because there is nothing worse than dry cracked lips especially if they also happen to be sunburnt.

Waterproof mascara - because you never know there might be a cute island guy who also happens to be trapped, therefore you want to make you eyes long and luscious so you can flutter them at him and convince him to help you build a raft in order to escape.

Moisturiser - to help keep your skin hydrated and help keep your tan

 Mirror - this is not just to help you apply you mascara but it can also aid in starting a fire, allowing you to send a signal for help.

let me know in the comments what 5 you would choose or why don't you do a post on your blog about it and leave it in the comments below because i would love to check it out.

learn how to speak Guinea pig

These are my guinea pigs

i have always been a lover of animals. if you look on my 50 facts about me post you will see that i have had a lot of animals in my 19 years of life in which i currently have 4 guinea pigs. so as i have had all of these animals i have learnt a lot about them though observation and research, and i often get asked by friends and family; 'my ______ is doing this what does it mean?' or 'am i allowed to feed my ______ this? etc. so i thought i would share my knowledge.

please remember that i am only 19 i am not a veterinarian so i am only going off of what i have observed and researched either though books or by asking my vet and pet store.

this one is going to be about Guinea pigs as i just said that i have 4, and i also know they are a very popular pet.

First things first i am going to talk about the sounds they make. Now they make quite a few sounds on a regular basis and like us they all mean different things.

- Purring 

 they do this in two different tones. if it is quite a low tone then this means they are happy or content weather they are purring at you or at another guinea pig. The other tone is considered a 'durr' noise as it still is a purr however this one tends to be a sudden and a short purr. they tend to do this if they are  afraid by a sudden noise. 

- Weeking 

 this is the sound you will probably hear most often because they will normally make this sound when they want feeding. it's basically them saying 'is it dinner time yet mum, can we have some dinner now' and if your guinea pigs are anything like mine, they are always hungry. My guinea pigs make this sound whenever they hear some sort of bag rustle whether it is dinner time or not.

- Moaning 

 like us humans Guinea pigs moan too and for the same reasons. for example if one of them is resting and is then disturbed or if one is eating some hay out of the rack and the other one wants some too but can't get there. you will be able to tell that your guinea pig is moaning because it will start off fairly quiet gradually getting louder if the intrusive pig doesn't get the message. they will moan at anyone or anything that is annoying them so if you are doing something that you piggie doesn't like they will moan at you to let you know. normally it won't turn aggressive with you or other piggies unless nobody takes any notice

- Mutter 

 so guinea pigs like to make a little noise that kind of sounds like they are muttering to themselves, and maybe they are we don't know. it is quite easy to distinguish. if they are just walking around minding their own business and they make a little chattering noise then they are muttering to themselves. this is harmless they are just very happy and content little piggies.

- Shrieking 

now this isn't a nice sound because this means they are in distress and possibly hurt so if you ever hear your guinea pig make this noise you need to attend to them right away. you will be able to tell if it is a shriek because it will be very high pitched and extremely loud.

- Teeth Chattering

this is self explanatory. it is kind of like when we are cold in the winter and our teeth chatter except they don't do it because they are cold. they do it because they are annoyed/ angry.

- Rumbling

it is normally males that do this to romance the female in which it kind of sounds like a purr but with a vibration too.

sorry this was such a long post but i hope it helps if you want me to do a specific animal or you want to ask me a question regarding your pet then please feel free to leave a comment below or email me.
