By far going to be the hardest thing I've done in my life so far but looking forward to it - CAMP SO FAR

So - I am actually at ... band camp. "This one time, at band camp.." is gunna get said a lot this summer!


The camp I'm at is performing arts, basically everything theatre, art, band, acting, singing, musical, performance, dance, is here. It's like a miniature musical. I'm living in a musical. Currently right now I'm sat listening to Frozen and in the building next to me is a band playing up town funk. It's pretty cool!!



I feel, in a weird way, connected to my child hood cause I loved drama and stuff as a kiddy wink. It's such a nice environment to be living in. Okay so I'll keep this quick because I am currently skiving and my day off commences in a few hours so I'm looking forward to go venturing around PA soon but for anyone interested, this is just a bit about what's happened the last week here at Camp and how I'm getting on and stuff. 



I know, I had a lot of concerned warnings from friends that know me a bit too well before I left, telling me to basically try and not kill myself or get myself kidnapped or something. so far, I'm all good. A few mishaps but I'm alive.

Severly sleep deprived, jet lagged, very emotional, very excited, a hoodie and a bag of makeup down - I've arrived at camp

So I have arrived. Touch down!!
Actually, I arrived last Friday - as promised, it was nothing short of eventful. 
From the beginning then? Well it all started with a big finale night out with pals, that was great ... Until I skipped a nights sleep completely forgetting the next day I was moving out AND moving in. Absolute nightmare. Hungover, still in last nights make up, stressed, trying to clean up our doss house of a student house and bulking all my stuff across the street. The good news? The new house is gorgeous but in the process we were given the wrong keys, had a few arguments, I fell down the stairs and nearly killed myself but overall the move went okay and I had a lovely send off with my friends. NO TEARS. But none the less, very emotional!!


I also had a lovely send off night with family. Very spoilt with lovely gifts and it was nice to see everyone for the last time in a 3 months - again, very emosh - but sadly, that's where all the niceties end. Well, at least for a little while.

BIG TICK FOR NIKE



The last pair of trainers I bought, I was 11 years old. (shameful I know) and yesterday I Threw them away. I must have graduated from jelly shoes straight in to whatever felt comfortable or heels that I didn't know how to walk in - for whatever reason I skipped trainers. 

I do enjoy sports but never realised the importance of having a GOOD pair of trainers. From what I gather, it's very important! Probably half the reason I have a gammy foot is down to not wearing a half decent pair when I've been running about and what not, so yesterday I vowed for a change and off on a hunt for a companion trainer shoe I went.

"I DID NOT SELL MY UNDERWEAR"

As if by magic (the internet) I stumbled across a big clang of people on the same flight as me and the same camp as me. Ideal.

Been chatting to a few people, getting really excited now. Already decided on a huge p*ss up in the airport. (Because the legal age in America is 21 to drink) meaning I am, dun dun dun, BACK to being underage. Not sure how I feel about that. I'm thinking I'll come back the healthiest human on earth, totally detoxed. That should be nice, refreshing. 

SIMPLE HAIR HACKS YOU NEED TO KNOW.



Hair is literally the bane of my life, as I'm sure it is for many other girls. 

It just never seems to go, y'know ... right. Most of the time resulting in it being shoved up in a pony tail or left to hang like a sack of potatoes.

... Is that the right metaphor to use?  

Anyway, here are some hair hacks you 100% need to try.
They look effortless AND literally require no effort at all, win/win!
