Options?! GCSEs?! | HelenaAsia

Via

Hey again! So just thought I'd blog about something... well, important (?) going on right now...

It's time for me to pick my options! I'm talking GCSEs options for year 10 (9th grade?) and I know some people will find this is a boring topic but in all honesty, I've found it quite exciting! Yanno thinking about what you subjects you want to take and what you want to do with your future.

As I write this my choices are Business, Media and Music and I think iMedia or Drama as a reserve and I'm waiting to go to my options evening, which actually might make me change my mind about something so you never know! 

My biggest risk is taking Music, and I mean I love music and I play the piano (barely) and singing is something I love to do so much! I honestly get so scared singing on my own but I decided that maybe taking GCSE Music is hopefully going to make me conquer my fear and I can obviously learn something out of it :) I don't want to go through the rest of my life thinking that I could've at least tried but didn't cause I was scared.  

If you think it's a stupid idea or cheesy then suit yourself but at least I won't regret not trying it or really considering it if I don't end up taking it but I know that I want to and I guess that's good enough for me. 

I'll try to update on Twitter so if any of y'all want to know what happened then you know where to look :D

Oh Yes, New Year Resolutions

New year, new me... phahaha  I know what you're all thinking, that's totally gonna happen isn't it? You see what I realised is, if you think like that then there's not much chance it is. I want to actually try to get my 2015 sorted out and well...better. 

Now before I go on and on about 2015, can I... we just take a moment to just look back on 2014...

What did you think? Whatever you thought doesn't matter anymore. If you had a great year or the worst year ever, forget it. Let's all just pat ourselves on the back for actually making it through the year!

2015 is going to be the year that you make better than last year, if you had a rubbish 2014 then make 2015 better. If you had an awesome 2014 and you don't think that 2015 is gonna be any good, prove yourself wrong and make it even more fun and exciting :D Woah there, Helena motivation juices flowing today eh? 

For my New Years Resolutions here is what I came up with so far:

• Start (and hopefully finish) a scrapbook
• Workout at least once week for 30 minutes ~ going well so far ;)
• Drink 500ml of water everyday ~ I'll try more
• Read at least 12 books 
• At least 4 blog post a month :D
• Learn me some photography ~ includes me getting a DSLR 
• Learn how to use iMovie better 
• Make an effort with my appearance ~ I'm just so lazy 
• Try to make thumbnails with my blog posts! ~ failing

If I come up with anymore which I do sometimes, I might add them to the list. I know it's the middle of January but I thought that I'd wait just in case I came up with more ideas!

Let me know, what your resolutions are! :)

What I Got For Christmas 2014 | HelenaAsia

Here it comes - the ever so famous famous post where I take you through my presents of 2014!

I'll take y'all through the other present and leave my main present till last :D and do I really have to do a disclaimer?

The first of many presents I got was this beautiful notebook, which has this peacock on the front - I didn't realise it was a peacock at first, I think I'm blind o_O - and it's just lined and has peacock feathered background on the opening and the back, so pretttyy. This is from TKMaxx if anyone was wondering :)

PJs and dressing gown ~ my gosh ~ I can't even explain how soft these are! Especially the dressing gown, which is from New Look (I didn't pick this out but I just saw the label) and the pyjamas are from Primark  - I got a similar pair last year but yanno how it is, you got to get new PJs at Christmas :D

A clothing item I did pick ~ Topshop Joni Jean, petite of course as I'm so short and tiny "^_^ I think I got these on Boxing Day too though they weren't in the sales. I don't think I can go back to normal jeans after these - they are so frickin comfy and fit really well!

Soap and Glory Eyeliner Set
It has 4 colours: black, brown, blue and green and they're all kohl. I was actually there when my mum was buying them so I kinda helped her pick them out ;) 

Me and my best loves did secret santa this year so my secret santa, Emily, got me Zoella's makeup bag and a gorgeous Ted Baker set which smells amazing *clap clap*

Dali got made me this awesome Tumblr pillow and got me the few little bit and bobs below! Love them all *more clapping*

Now for the one and only...

Yes, a MacBook Pro, I honestly couldn't have been anymore grateful than what I am ~ I love my parents so much and  I absolutely love everything that everyone got me ~ side note: those little polaroids are also from Dali :D   

THIS IS JUST ONE BIG HUGE THANK YOU TO EVERYONE

LOVE YOU ALLLLLLL *VIRTUAL HUG CUDDLE*
