Pudge Controls The Weather

I thought it was just a simple comment from Lilo, but after some research, I found out the true meaning to Lilo's innocent "Pudge controls the weather".

As we all know, Lilo is from THE BEST DISNEY MOVIE EVER, 'Lilo and Stitch'. Basically, Lilo rushes into dance practice late because she has to feed Pudge the fish a peanut butter sandwhich every Thursday. As it happens, that Thursday they had no peanut butter, so Naani said for Lilo to give Pudge a tuna sandwhich.

"I can't give Pudge tuna! Do you know what tuna is? I'd be an abomination!"

So she is late to dance because they had to buy peanut butter so that Lilo could give Pudge his sandwhich.

After watching Lilo and Stitch for the gazillionth time, I decided to find out more. 

I found out that Lilo has to give Pudge his weekly sandwhich because her parents died in a car crash caused by bad weather conditions, and as Pudge controls the weather, by her giving him his weekly sandwhich he will make sure something like that doesn't happen again. As she says, her family is already "broken".

I had to take several deep breathes and slap my cheeks a few times so I wouldn't cry, but you have permission to let a tear or two slide down your face.

Start crying...

Now.

Valebella

The lovely Michelle of Valebella Jewelry Designs sent me a gorgeous mini rose jewelry set in lavender purple to review, so thank you Michelle!

She says;

"I am a stay at home mother of three little girls ages 1, 8 and 11. They are truly my inspiration. With the support of my amazing husband, I started Valebella in 2007. I love making custom jewelry and accessories. It is great to have a creative outlet and enjoy what you do."

I absolutely LOVE the set, as the ring is adjustable therefor fits perfectly, and the hairclips are longer than my other clips, so they manage to keep my whole fringe out of my eyes.

They're strong, and are so pretty! And since they're purple, they match my new cosmic leggings(:

The roses are really delicate looking, and are not too big or too small, and will compliment any outfit as the perfect accessory.

The packaging is lush, and if you want to visit the exact set that I now have, click HERE

The Valebella store is HERE  so you can check it out, as Micehlle has loads of other accessories, which are equally as stunning.

Superdrug & Sainsburys Haul

I've decided to do a Zoella-styled monthly haul, and to start off these 'Hauls', I'm going to focus on Sainsburys and Superdrug, because basically, I've noticed that I buy a lot of Superdrug Own, but the quality for money is great, and Superdrug's reasonably local. And Sainsburys? I didn't even know they had a make-up department until a few days ago, but they do sell normal cosmetics there, unlike my suspicions. Sad, I know.

Anyway,

Cotton wool pads, Superdrug Own, £1.69
Empty bottle (to fill with suncream, because), Superdrug Own, £1.59
Kirby grips, Superdrug Own, £1.39
Make-up wipes, Superdrug Own, 99p
Nail kit, (great value!) Superdrug Own, £5.99
Make-up set of three bags, (great value!) Superdrug Own, £5.99
Eyelash curlers, Cosmopolitan, £4.19
Foot exfoliator, Elegant Touch, £3.09

Work Experience Photos

Work Experience

Yesterday was one of the most amazing days of my life, including Sunday. And why? Because I was away at my work experience!

Sumday I met the editor of The Caterham Independent (I first met her when she came to my school, and things pretty much went from there) at her house, and we went to take photos of a Fun Run. 

It was BRILLIANT! I took loads of photos (some which will appear in the next issue!), and left with a pretty mild sunburn on my forehead and a lot of new skills, even though I got completely lost at the end trying to track down my mother when she came to pick me back up.

Then yesterday I went down to the offices and wrote three different articles for the e-newsletter, and went down to a local school to take a load of photos (with Julia's very official looking camera) of the children. I also got a few quotes off the head teacher and a pupil called Melissa about Healthy Living Week and the school's Skipping Workshop.

When I left (honestly, I really didn't want to), Julia gave me a copy of the latest issue, a letter on Things You Learnt Today, copies of my articles, and an awesome pen, and get this - whenever an interesting enough subject pops up, I might be able to write an article about it for The Caterham Independent again!

Photos later!

HILARIOUS meme.*

Whilst surfing the net for insiration for my next blog post, Facebook popped up onto my Ipad, and seconds later I found a load of completely HILARIOUS* photos on my friend's account. She's okay with me reblogging the photos, especially considering she got them off Google, so here's five of my ultimate favourite memes...

*I find them completely HILARIOUS anyway...

Whatcha think?
