Monthy Round Up | July


Oh shoot me, there's another picture of a glitter ball. I know, you don't have to tell me again - I need to take pictures of more things. Yadayadaya. But on a more topical topic, hasn't July been an eternity?

Most recently it was my birthday, and if you couldn't tell from the blogpost, it was a super fun, festival themed affair. True to 18th birthday form I was well and truly spoilt by my family and lovely friends - complete with no holds barred playlist (made with the help of Becky) which included the likes of Snoop Dogg, Wham! and The Arctic Monkeys - I know what you're thinking and no, Wham! wasn't a dare. And to no surprise the glitter ball has remained a permanent garden feature. YAY!

Rewind to the beginning of the month I packed the cider and onesie (the 2 things this girl really needs in life) and headed off to the gorgeous county of Herefordshire with a whole bunch of friends for a alcohol fuelled week of bliss - complete with swimming pool and sunshine. With a lack of wifi and TV and phone signal, the feeling of being isolated was so calming, and a nice change from the usual stream of consciousness that is twitter. I think drinking games and/or card games are now a solid skill on my CV - my mum is so proud.

One night at home, then I strapped on my Doc Martens for 24 hours of camping, solid awakeness and activities at Gilwell 24 with two other lovely girls. Ok, so I cheated and lasted until 3 in the morning, but I learnt my lesson last year - I'm the angriest, most vile human being when I haven't slept. Urgh. But I had a crack at white water rafting at Lee Valley. For the adrenaline junkie in me it was amazing, soaking and tiring, but amazing.

Also, I should probably mention the belly flop that was 'Music Month'. Due to the for mentioned lack of internet in Hereford, its was extremely difficult to upload that week... and then I kinda dropped it. However, blogging every day was fun. Just spending time writing constructively and sharing experiences was a good change and has helped me be a tiny be more creative. So, every cloud eh?!
