GCSE Tips and Advice

Hello everyone, so I was meant to post this the day before my results but I was really busy and really nervous so I didn’t get a chance to. I hope you all got the GCSE and A-Level results that you wanted (or any other exams you've done). For GCSE I took: Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Maths, English Language, English Literature, French, Philosophy and Ethics (RS), Drama and History. I just wanted to write down some advice for people starting their GCSEs and just some general revision tips to help you guys. Most of them I've tried myself or my friends have done them so I hope these help you in some way. Here are 10 tips to help you during your GCSE's.  Tip #1 – Revise as you go Okay so this is really important because I didn’t do this and I found I had to work really hard in the last few months leading up to my exams and I may have been able to do even better if I hadn’t crammed 3 years of work into 3 months. Start as you mean to go on, if you have an end of

July Favourites

Hello again! I can’t believe it’s August tomorrow, July seems to have gone by so quickly. I thought I’d finish off July with a favourites post. I’m just going to write about a few of my favourites from this month and why I like them etc, I’ll link the products as well so you check them out. Please bear with me as I’ve never written beauty product reviews before so this is unfamiliar territory for me. Enjoy! CINEEN Professional rose gold Makeup Brushes - £6.35 (amazon) So, I have only recently started wearing a full (ish) face of makeup, before June I was more of a mascara only (with the occasional eyeliner) type of girl. Firstly, can we just take a moment to appreciate how pretty these brushes are? I absolutely love the rose gold handles and the pink into white bristles. The brushes are soft and are really gentle on the skin and spread makeup extremely well and evenly distribute it without any streaks. If you are looking for new makeup brushes for a low price then I reco

Letters to the Lost book review

Do you believe in fate? Sometimes I want to. I want to believe that we all walk some path towards... something, and our paths intertwine for a reason. Like this, the way we've found each other. The way you told me the right story when I so desperately needed to hear it. The reason I fell in love with reading is because it allowed me to be in someone else’s shoes with a completely different life for a few hours a day until I finished the book. Yesterday I finished 'Letters to the Lost' by Brigid Kemmerer. When I picked it up from WHSmith I was drawn to it and just had to buy it; I know you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover but in this case, I’m glad I did. Once I started reading it, I didn’t want to put it down, but parallel to that feeling of wanting to find out what happens, the feeling that you don't want it to end is equally as strong.   I won't spoil anything but it is an incredibly moving and well-crafted book. I love the way the Kemmerer

Hello Internet, it's Beth x

Hello internet! It's Beth here. I've been thinking about how to write this first blog post for a while now, but I've been unsure how. I have always wanted a blog, but I've never had the guts to make one and put it out there for anyone to see. But I finally thought I should just go for it because at the end of the day the only person stopping me is myself. It's going to take me a while for me to get used to the novelty of starting a blog, but that will be exciting and something for me to focus on this summer. I can already predict that my first few posts are going to be awkward and it may take me a while to get into writing a blog, so I apologise in advance if my posts are a bit all over the place in the first few months. So, let me introduce myself. My name is Beth and I'm a sixteen year old girl (as of a couple of days ago) from the UK and I've recently just finished my GCSEs. I am an aspiring writer and plan to write about whatever nonsense springs to
