Five Things & Five Blogs I Love Friday | Blogmas Day Nineteen


One.
The poetry essay of doom has been submitted. No idea if I've answered the question & if you asked me right now what I wrote about I wouldn't be able to tell you other than I managed to shoehorn in a quote from the Dead Poets Society. Love that film! But it's gone, I'm forgetting all about it, and now I can properly get into the Christmas spirit!

Two.
Sam Smith singing Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas. Beautiful!

Three.
Your responses to my survey! Your support, love and constructive criticism this year has been so incredibly helpful and wonderful. I may have even shed a few happy tears at some of the nice things that you've said about me. I definitely don't deserve it after having a bit of a rubbish blogging year, but I'm looking forward and not looking back. If you have a spare few minutes to answer some questions for me, here's a link to my survey and I would love to read your responses.

Four.
Having two whole weeks ahead of me where I can read solely for pleasure. I am SO excited. Station Eleven here I come...!

Five.
Wrapping Christmas presents. My technique hasn't got any better, they look pretty terrible if I'm honest, but it's my signature look - it's very obvious which gifts sitting under the tree are from me!

* * *


Private Life of a Girl | If I had to describe Sophie in one word it'd be authentic. She keeps it real & I love that.
Carly Watts | I'm sure you know how much I love Carly, but her Christmas illustrations this year are the cutest!  
Alphabeth | Whenever I'm reading a post from Beth, it always feels like I'm catching up with an old friend. Lovely!
Girl With Makeup | Oh how I would love to go makeup shopping with Emma - she has the best taste!
Wander to Wonder | Avoid if you're feeling hungry - Miho posts pictures of the yummiest looking food!

Happy Friday!!

    I do love Carly, her Christmas work really is the cutest! Sam Smith's voice doesn't fit his face, he also seems like the nicest guy ever.
