Wishlist: Jan 2015

Hey guys!

It's the new year and sales are slowly coming to a close (well, I think so anyways...) but I've still got a load of things bookmarked in my browser. In this post I'm going to be sharing a few of the things I want with you guys.

Just a heads up (more for me than you), I probably won't buy all- maybe even any, of this: these are just the things I want.

1. Mom Shorts- Ok. This item shouldn't really be on my wishlist as I already have it... BUT! I only got it this week (here) so it was technically in my Jan wishlist at the very beginning. Ha. I've wanted a pair of these so called mom shorts for a while now, not because they're super trendy but because they're longer than normal shorts. Although my confidence has improved over the years, I don't think I'm at a stage yet where I'm comfortable enough to wear normal shorts. Sadly, the pair I got were slightly loose but I guess that makes them that bit more comfortable. Right?

2. HTC Desire Eye- This (here) has been on my wishlist since the day I laid eyes on it! I have been going on about this phone as though it was something I'd created. You see, I'm not a big selfie person in the sense I don't take many. However even I am amazed by the idea of having a 13MP front camera- it's so simply amazing! The HTC Desire Eye will be the first phone to have a high quality camera at the front and the back. It's currently retailed at £399.99, which for me is slightly pricey as I'm yet to buy a phone on it's own (i.e. contract-free). On the other hand, you'll be paying £399.99 for an awesome phone so it'll be worth it I guess.

3. Khaki top- I only came across this top (here) recently but I immediately fell in love with it. The pairing of black and that khaki green is perfect in my eyes.

4. Loafers- I have fat/wide feet so these wide fit loafers (here) would be really good for me. My current pair of loafers are slightly worn out and have become loose around the middle where my fat feet have stretched it. If anyone knows any exercises to slim your feet please let me know. Thank you.

5. Table- My current desk is wide but too small in terms of depth; this makes it a bit hard to use a laptop and an A4 notebook at the same time. I saw this (here) table on the Argos website and it's an extendable one with enough space for two people to study. 

6. Frizz ease- Is this a self explanatory item? I have frizzy hair... This (here) might help.

And that's a wrap guys! Hopefully I get to buy these things sometime soon- especially the table.

Take care,
Santhiya

Happy New Year: Review and resolutions!

HAPPY NEW YEARS GUYS! 

Can you believe it?! It's 2015 already. Ha. Even saying 2015 sounds a little odd.

2014 was a pretty good year for me- of course there was a little bad but that can be overlooked. Here are a few pics showing some of the highlights:

Now 2015... As I mentioned earlier, it sounds so strange. 2015. Strange or not, new year's resolutions are a must for me so here they are: 

1. Get fit

2. Study harder
That's a given now that I'm in my second year and want to apply to Med school this coming September.

3. Learn French
As a family, we often go to France so being able to speak French would be really useful! Learning an extra language is pretty useful in general I guess.

4. Get my drivers licence

5. Be more productive

This is something I am pretty terrible at. Anything to stop me being productive, I will most likely do. But that was the old me (hopefully)! This year I want to use my spare time knitting (which I STILL have not started), volunteering, revising, learning to cook/bake, writing posts, taking pictures, etc. Basically anything- as long as it's productive... Or what I call productive anyways.

And that's a wrap!

Once again, happy new year: hope this year is amazing for you guys!

Take care,
Santhiya

What I Got For My 20th

Hello again peeps!

So a few weeks ago I did a post on things I wanted for my birthday. So today, I thought I'd do a post on some of the things I actually got. Let's get started!

On my birthday my friends from uni had gathered for a surprise lunch after our lecture. It was really sweet and was a real surprise! I got a cute HANDMADE (can you believe it?!) doggy in a basket and perfume. I'm not really a big perfume wearer (on a daily basis that is) but I will definitely be wearing it more often as this particular one smells amazing! And I think my friend will resort to killing me if I don't use it anytime soon...

One of my best friends got me a jigsaw puzzle and a Rubik's cube. She read my post and told me that's what she'll be getting me. I'm yet to use the Rubik's cube but I have started on the puzzle, and boy is it hard! Maybe a 1000 piece jigsaw was not the best place to start, ha.

I also got the blender I wanted! You see, I'm not a big fan of greens so mixing spinach with a couple of fruits and gulping it down is what I've got to do. I used a banana and an apple as my accompanying fruits on this particular occasion but I'm not too fussed as to what goes in.

My little sister got me a Tigger onesie but I have not yet got a decent picture of it so I've got nothing to show you at the moment. I love it though- it has a tail and everything!

This one  I didn't actually get for my birthday but it was from my "secret" santa. I love Winnie the Pooh and this was honestly a perfect gift. 

And that's it for now! 

I'm not a big fan of my own birthdays but this one was nice. So thanks to everyone who made it special. Love you guys ❤

Oh and this is not birthday related but here are a few pictures I took since the sky looked so pretty!

Take care,
Santhiya
