I'm sorrrrrrrryyyyyyyy.

Forgive me and allow me to return from a two year hiatus? I have giveaway goodies, promise. What's that? Don't believe me? Let me prove it:

I've been MIA for so long, it's actually shameful :( My only excuses are exams and the fact that I spent every single week of the summer holidays doing work experience of some sort. This is the year in which I apply to university, and since I'm hoping to study Medicine I've been trying to do as much extra curricular stuff as possible, now that the academics are somewhat out of the way.

Peace offering: May I show some pretty pictures of what I've been up to while neglecting my poor blog? Then tommorow, I promise to answer my comment backlogs and work on some new material. I've seen some product launches that are impressive and I'd like to talk about them, though I'm way behind the times!
 
Boo, Chemistry.
 
Boo, practice exam papers.

 
Volunteering at the hospital!

Out with friends to celebrate the end of results...we went out to eat a lot. Wagamama was probably one of my favourites.



I was lucky enough to be able to watch the Athletics at the London 2012 Olympic Games! One of my Mum's friends works at a company involved with the Games and was able to score us free tickets. We saw the morning athletics, including the men's 200 metre sprint heats - which featured Usain Bolt! Slightly in love with that man.




Interesting entertainment outside the stadium!



 Gold Duke of Edinburgh practice expedition up the Brecon Beacons. Seriously hard.




Back to work at the library! My college was one of the earliest in the area to go back. Typical. Latest to break up, earliest to start term again...


Squirrel in the bin. Not sure why I found this so amusing.


I'll endeavour to update far more regularly now things have calmed down somewhat. To be a good doctor, I'll need good time management skills, and where better to start but here?

(If you made it all the way to the end, please award yourself an e-medal)

Recently, I've bought an incredible amount of MUA's Pro range, and just haven't blogged about it. I'm not sure why.

yes




 

After my disastrous first experience with their Pro mascara, I returned to it a month or so later to find it had improved in formula considerably - much thicker and easy to work with. It delivered the promised volume, too (not much in length, but hey) so I take back some of my previous upset with it. I maintain a mascara should work well straight out of the tube, though, and not have to ferment like yeast or something before it's effective.




 
I also purchased the MUA Pro Lip Balms, which you can read about here.

So sorry guys. Year Eleven is such a biatch. I'll try and post more frequently from now on :( Starting from right now!
