NEW YORK

So this week saw my first ever trip to New York. I went with my school but it was basically my group of friends, a couple of others and 2 teachers so it was like a group holiday. It was the best holiday I have ever been on and New York is now my favourite ever city. It is so beautiful at night!!
I was there for 4 days and we went sight seeing. We went to the top of the Empire State Building and Rockefeller Centre and saw the whole city from 102 floors up, saw the Statue of Liberty, Times Square, Brooklyn Bridge, Central Park, Ground Zero and did a lot of shopping. New York is my favourite place in the world and hands down beats London any time! I thought I would share some of the pictures I took with you guys as some of you have asked for them.

We went to breakfast in a little deli opposite where we stayed and it had the nicest breakfast in EVER.
Central Park is beautiful.

We were a little excited...




Cheeky selfie in Central Park.




Central Park has the cutest phrases written on the benches. Some of them were proposals for marriage but this was by far the cutest one I found.


The streets are FULL of taxi's and everyone beeps the car in front for some reason.



The view from the top of the Empire State Building was breathtaking.



Oh hello Statue of Liberty, how you doing?




  

The whole group of students who went with our new friend.



Ground Zero was the most beautiful place. Their memorials were so pretty and every single person who lost their lives in the terrible accident were inscribed into the 2 pools so they are never going to be forgotten.




We ended our holiday on the top of the Rockefeller Centre where we could see the beautiful views of New York again, but this time the weather was not on our side as it was cloudy. 


All in all those 4 days were the best 4 days of my life. We did so many things in such little time it felt like we were there for 2 weeks. I definitely want to go back there for longer so we could explore a little more but I would recommended New York as a holiday to everyone I know as there is something for everyone!

I hope you guys had a good half term and I shall speak to you again soon.

The Christmas Tag

So December is well and truly setting in with the freezing cold weather and Christmas decorations going up. I'm currently sitting in front of my fire with a cup of hot chocolate and I thought it would be a good idea to do a Christmas tag as I haven't posted in ages! A number of blogs I follow have done this and they have told all of their followers to do it so here it is: 1. What is your favourite holiday movie? I have 2 massive favourites that remind me of Christmas. The first is a classic: The Snowman. I have loved this film since I was a child and I remember that I used to get so excited when it came on and I belted the song out as loud as I could. Another massive favourite isn't really a Christmas movie but it premiered on BBC1 last year at Christmas and it is Lady and the Tramp. This is my all time favourite film ever because I have loved it all my life and what isn't cute about dogs falling in love with each other? 2. What is your favourite Christmas colour?

New York Haul!

Image
So if you read my last blog post you would have seen that last week I went to New York. It was the best holiday ever and if you want to see this post, click here . Anyway, whilst I was in NY I bought some things so I thought I would show you what I got. First of all, I bought 2 tops in the gift shops as I was there. The first one was from when we went to the Empire State Building and it was $22. The next one I fell in love with when I saw it in the Rockefeller Centre. It was a little more expensive at $25 but it is such a good t-shirt and I know I will be wearing it a lot. Both of the t-shirts are so soft and I purposefully got them big so they are perfect to wear with leggings or even tucked into jeans or skirts. The next thing I got was 2 pictures from a really sweet lady who was selling things on the Brooklyn Bridge. I saw a beautiful picture of New York at night in the Empire State Building gift shop but it was $25 so I decided to wait and I got both

Nina Nesbitt Concert!

Image
Hello everyone how have you guys been?  So yesterday was probably one of the best nights of my life as I saw Nina Nesbitt live at KOKO!!! Me and my friend had got tickets to see her for my other friends birthday so we all took a trip down to Camden after school and waited for 2 hours before being let into such a beautiful venue. Queuing up outside we got little freebie cards for free downloads and a little Nina business card with her eye on (that now lives in my ID badge at school). After we got into the venue we drooled over the merch that none of us could afford and made our way down to the standing floor. We started off being 2 rows from the front and after a little pushing and shoving we ended up about 5 rows back but it was still incredible!  Before Nina came on there were 2 amazing support acts. The first guy was called Daniel James and was a beautiful man with a beautiful singing voice. His songs were so cool and he kept doing this little dance with his leg tha
