cabin fever

since moving in to my new uni house all i have done is get drunk or lay/sleep/be generally hungover in the living room. i am starting to lose my mind, this always happens at some point during my time living at university. i need to go back to university and regain some structure and fall back into some sort of routine.

however, since we have had so much spare time, me and robyn decided it was a good opportunity to film a youtube video.. (which will obviously be hilarious and you will regret it if you don't watch it because we are fabulous!) so we have filmed the 'best friend challenge' video and we had a blast doing so.

i would absolutely love it if you would be so kind as to give my new video a thumbs up and subscribe to my channel! thanks guys :)

aske road and alcohol

so the last few days have been a little bit crazy.. i moved into my new university house on saturday and spent pretty much the full day unpacking and organising my bedroom plus we've had no internet until today so haven't had the opportunity to post anything.

i love my bedroom this year, it has so much room for activities! i mean just look at all that floor space, it is fabulous. it is still a little bit empty at the minute though as i'm still deciding what else i want to add i.e. pictures and fairy lights (i'm definitely feeling fairy lights around that shelf above my bed, cute!) i can already tell i'm going to love living in this house, i feel so happy and settled here already.

our living is also very nice this year, hi robyn. we have so much space but it is really cosy. please excuse the boxes and bags in the corner, our housemate hasn't finished unpacking yet. 

as well as moving in and getting myself prepared for third year - sob! it is, of course, freshers week. so last night was our first night out of our last ever freshers, i had the best night ever but it hit me that this is my last year with such an amazing bunch of friends, i'm going to miss them all so much. so, i need to prepare myself for a very hectic year and find the right balance of hard work and crazy nights out - the thought of writing a dissertation is terrifying me!! (i can't handle being a third year at all)

here is a photo of me looking faaancy last night.

ok so, editing my video didn't take as long as expected! even though i find myself ever so slightly annoying, i've decided to post it now before i get too scared to do so.
i don't know if any of you are interested in watching that video but if you want to listen to me answer some questions about myself then you definitely should!

tuesday thoughts

the last two days have been quite productive and i'm feeling somewhat happy about it. i have started organising my things together for uni, two full cases packed already. this time of year always makes me feel very stressed and anxious, i hate hate hate packing so much and i always feel on edge that i'm going to forget something important. so, i've given myself plenty of time to get my crap together as i move back to boro on saturday -sigh- where has the summer gone?
as well as starting to put my life in cases and boxes, i filmed my first ever youtube video - hurrah! vlogging is something i have become very interested in recently, mostly due to friends recommending watching certain youtubers, i now find myself wasting hours at a time watching videos and reading blog posts and thought i'd give it a go! a good friend of mine, alice, also included me in one of her videos recently, it hasn't been posted as of yet but i had a blast filming it, another reason i fancied giving it a go.
however, it took me three hours to edit, three hours. i began to lose the will to live. editing issues aside, the video has been successfully filmed and edited, i just need to decide when i'm going to post it. the video i filmed today involved my boyfriend, i only filmed it now because i move back to university on saturday and wanted it to be posted in the next few weeks. i'm undecided if it's going to be my first post just yet as i wanted to give viewers, if i get any, a brief intro about myself before posting anything with decent content. i tried to film an "intro" video today but i did nothing but annoy myself - talking to a camera about yourself is hard! i may try again though because i feel like that would be a better first video than the one i have filmed. if you want to keep an eye out for my video's then check out my youtube channel :)

well hello..

hi,
this is my first ever blog post, how exciting. i'll use this opportunity to introduce myself;
i'm emily, i'm twenty years old and i'm an early childhood studies student at teesside university. i'm originally from barnsley, south yorkshire. i'm a disney, elephant and dvd enthusiast. as stated, my blog will probably be used mainly for day to day rants and ramblings, a place to express my thoughts. i'll also be posting reviews on various things; make up, books, films etc.
so, i hope you give me time to find my feet in the blogging world.
