Aimee Was Watching: Stranger Things

Hello everyone,
Before I begin rambling, I should mention that this post is sponsored by a long weekend of binge watching, crying and stuffing my face with Pringles!
For those of you who have been living under a rock this summer, I'm about to delve into why Stranger Things, a Netflix original series, is one of the greatest shows in recent years. Seriously. You've probably seen people Tweeting about it, talking about it and hyping about it all over the internet, so I'm sorry-not-sorry to be adding fuel to the fire of this show's popularity.
Before I jump into the narrative and any potential spoilers, I want to list five things that make this show just so damn great:

July Favourites

Hello everyone,
what's that you hear? the sound of me giving yet another apology for a delay in posts!!! I really am sorry. Life has been chaotic recently what with graduation, overtime at work and a little thing called Pokémon Go! I am here with another favourites post (sans pics because honestly I'm getting lazy in my old age of 21). Nonetheless, I hope you enjoy this mini post, which I'm hoping will get me back into the habit of writing regularly.

June 2016 Favourites

Hello everyone,
So technically we are in July now (which is crazy, I can already smell Christmas), however, I wanted to do a little post for you all. I don't know about you but I am a little obsessed with favourites posts and videos on YouTube. I know most of them are pretty similar, so I hope you don't judge me for writing one. I'm not entirely sure if there's a specific way to do one of these, I'm just going to wing it and (hopefully) briefly summarise my current favourite things. Here it goes:

21 Songs that Shaped My Life

Hello everyone,
I'm here with another 21st birthday themed post. What I forgot to mention in my thing's I've learned post, is that music is everything. Whether you're at a wedding, birthday party, concert, funeral, or a car journey, there's a song that goes with it.
I wanted to write a quick post mentioning just 21 of the songs that have been significant in my life. This list is in no ascending order and the songs were SO HARD to narrow down, but here they are:

21 things I've learnt in 21 years

Hello everyone,
so Monday marks my 21st birthday, which is pretty scary. I feel like just yesterday I was writing my 20th birthday post.
Because I'm really good at being emo, I thought I would write a post about 21 things I've learned in life. Honestly I will be surprised if I make it to five things let alone 21 but lets see how this goes!

For Christina

Hello everyone,
so today I'm writing something a little different to my usual posts. I didn't want to jump straight into writing this, so I've given myself a few days to let events sink in and think about the right thing to say, if there is one.

Music Monday: Summer Playlist

Hello everyone,

I'm writing this as what feels like a Mediterranean  storm of humidity is passing through my town. This weather is so welcome for several reasons:

• The copious amounts of ice creams/lollies I can survive off of
• Barbecue and picnic season giving me many opportunities to do two of my favourite things- eat and see friends and family
• Lemonade just tastes 94948992498492 times better (insert Luke Hemmings sweet lemonade on a hot day quote)
• PIMMS!!!

Mini Life Update

Hello everyone,
It has been a (very) long time since my last post. How are you? Is everything going okay?
I hope that if you're reading this then you are not incredibly disappointed in my long absence and also I hope you're looking forward to future posts :)
This is just a little chance for me to tell you a little about what's been going on in my world, and what you can expect from my upcoming posts.

5SOS SLFL London and Brighton

Hello everyone,
I cannot believe the time has come for me and my pals to hit the road for the Aussies all over again. The last few days have been so incredible and I wanted to document it here so I can remember it. If you don't like 5SOS then please just stop reading because things are about to get EMO, real emo.
We (me, Emmy, Amy and Emma) got to our super cute apartment in London on Thursday, plugged in a laptop and started searching for tickets. It didn't take long for us to snap up some in a block on Calum's side, given we are being Michael AF for the rest of tour. We played a 5SOS version of heads up and C.A.H (Karen Clifford's ham and all that jazz) before stumbling to the venue.

Mini Primark haul

Hello everyone,

I'm doing something a bit different today. I was split between blogging this and vlogging it but I haven't been able to find the right time or place to film so here I am, sticking to my best method of communicating what I think is cool.

I am obsessed with hauls lately. Makeup, clothes and 99 Cent Store hauls being my preferred procrastination videos. I went to Primark earlier this month in the search of a few staple pieces and I am here to show you what I bought and why you should buy them on a pay day!

FBF: Halsey Badlands Tour

Hello everyone,
I apologise for the slump my blog has been in recently, what with my DISSERTATION and procrastination levels at an all time high.
I love Halsey. I've bragged about her in several posts and I really wanted to share the great experiences I had seeing her whilst she was in the UK. She may be a new artist but she is one of my all time favourite people to see live; her crowds are diverse, glitter coats my skin and I get to see some of my favourite humans in the process.

Let's kick this off with the Birmingham show and my trip to Camp Badlands. Emmy, Amy and I had a little stop off at TGI's for cocktails (mine was a hurricane, how fitting) before we headed to the venue. There were a few queues which seemed confusing but we weren't in the cold for too long. A guy (I'm really sad I don't know his name because he was SO POLITE, and a itty bitty little bit cute) gave us our wristbands and passports, which were stamped upon entry. Inside, all of the freaking amazing artwork that Halsey's shared at a few other events were displayed. Film poster esque versions of her songs, which I really hope become merch because I want to plaster my walls with them. There was a cute pink and blue Badlands backdrop where you could take photos and have them printed as cute post cards using a hashtag, and there was also the opportunity to buy discounted merch (we as a squad opted for the 'Send Help' dad caps).
