Happy New Year(s) Resolutions | 2016

Image
Hey Guys x This is a live post, which as I've said before, means that I'm uploading it as soon as I write the last word. But I wanted to talk about New Years Resolutions. This year is the year that I really want to start doing stuff. I have a lot of interests that I want to pursue and it seems like this is the best time to do them. I also have some blogging resolutions that I want to see through this year. Blogging Resolutions - Comment on more blogs - Follow more bloggers on social media (and bloglovin') - Reach 100,000 blog views - Stick to my blogging schedule - Have more original post ideas - Hit a follower milestone - Make more blogging friends Personal Resolutions - Get work experience - Get into movie production - Write more, read more, do more - Take more pictures - Watch more movies (so many movies!) - Spend less money - Fall in love - Make more friends - See my current friends more For now, that'...

2016 On Lou's World!

Image
Hey Guys x (I repeated one of the pictures in the collage and now it's really bugging me, but I only noticed as I was about to upload this post. Please just ignore it) It's almost the end of 2016, I can't believe this year is done! I had an amazing year blogging! Although I didn't bog as much this year, I hit amazing milestones and did things that I'm really proud of! I wrote my 500th post, hit over 70,000 views, started my 'Like A Writer' series and many more things that I'm really glad I did! I've also had a great time reading other people's blogs, and I definitely will be doing a lot more of this in 2017 because I have not done enough! I want to reach out to more bloggers, to do more collabs etc, but this isn't a New Years Resolution post, that's coming tomorrow. In my personal life, I'm also proud that this was the year that I completed my first year of university and began my second, and that's a weird feelin...

My 2016 Statistics!

Hey Guys x So, for this whole year, I've been writing down everything that I've done in my 'Sprinkle of Glitter' 2016 diary, with the idea that it would be cool to be able to look back on every day of the year.

The New Years Tag!

Image
Hey Guys x Welcome to my last Tag of 2016! Anyway, as it's so close to the end of the year, I thought I'd do the 'New Years' tag! Feel free to do this tag yourself. I found it here ! The Tag! If you could look back on one memory from last year that you wish you could relive, what would it be? I went out for my best friend's birthday in June, and I'd probably relive that. She didn't know that me and two other friends were coming, so it was really nice to surprise her! What was one new years resolution that you accomplished? I don't think I set any resolutions, so I couldn't say if I accomplished any! 3 words to describe last year? Friendship, uncertainty, 2016 - those pretty much sum it up! Best music related creation/inspiration last year by an artist in your opinion? I think this is a weird question, but maybe I'm not into music that much! There has been many great songs out this year, but none of them spring t...

What I Got For My Birthday/Christmas! | 2016

Image
DISCLAIMER: This post is in no way me bragging about what I got. Instead, I'm showing you guys how awesome my friends and family are and how grateful I am! Hey Guys x Welcome to my annual Birthday/Christmas present post! I love seeing other people doing these posts, and putting their things on my list for next year! I hope you like seeing the things that I got this year! Some of the presents I got aren't in these pictures, mainly because they were either clothes, Lush bath bombs or the phone that I took these pictures on! Birthday Presents This was a present from my best friend. We had been talking about different TV shows that we watch and she said that she thinks I'd love this, so she got me the first season which was so nice! I haven't started watching it (I'm trying to finish 'The Vampire Diaries' first) but I can't wait! This box set is a present from my mum. I love this show so much, I've ...

December and 2016 Favourites!

Hey Guys x This year, I thought I'd do something a little bit different with my last 'Favourites' post of the year. Rather than just tell you the things that I've been loving this month, I'm also going to tell you my favourites of the year! I hope you enjoy my last 'Favourites' post! It's gonna be a long one! Favourite Film: The Loft 'The Loft' has definitely been my favourite film of December. It's fast paced and exciting, there's twists and turns around every corner and you really can't guess what the outcome is! Definitely one to watch! Film Of The Year (1): Captain America: Civil War Of course this had to be one of my films of the year. As a huge Marvel fan, I went into 2016 really anticipating this film, and it certainly did not disappoint! I've watched it multiple times since and it gets better every time! Film Of The Year (2): Star Trek This year, I have loved getting into the Star Trek world. These film...
