Work first blog second

Hi guys!
Just want to apologise for not posting lately, i've had sooo much work to do and then my internet got cut off! But we got a new package so i should be back to posting on a regular basis. Since i''ve been out of the blogger world i've had so many post ideas and now its to late because they dont fit in with the time etc if that makes any sense at all.

Like i said, i have had so much work to do from school and i am so glad tomorrow is the last day before half term! I have had quite an eventful week or so (to the norm of boring nothing in my day to day life), I started my christmas shopping last week but ended up getting myself a few bits, i also went to the theatre to see 'We will rock you' last night in London and it was aaamazing! I actually can't explain how great it was, it makes me feel good just thinking about it and it left everybody buzzing, would definitely recommend!

Also, my friend is doing a hair & beauty course at A Level and as her assessment/exam/thing she has to style someone to walk down a catwalk in school and guess who's her model.. ME! haha, im not exactly the modelling type (although when i had my tarot cards read, the woman got a feeling that i would go into the modelling industry... fat chance!) but anyway, the theme was seasons and we got 'Spring'. She has to do my hair, makeup, nails, design my outfit and chose music and i was just wondering if any of you have any ideas of costumes or anything then please let me know as it would be a BIG help.

Anyways, that's my chit chat over and an update of what i've been up to. Have any of you been up to anything exiting?

p.s; its almost halloween, whats everyone dressing up as?! AND ONLY 2 MONTHS UNTIL CHRISTMAS!!!!

DIY; things to try

Okay so Halloween is coming up and im really excited! i have a few party's to go to and needed some costume ideas without wanting to spend a fortune. Whilst i was looking for some bits i stumbled across a few tutorials and pictures of some things that looked really cool and also found some other fashion try out pieces, so here's what i found..

1.

Let me know if there are any diy clothing you have tried out or would recommend me to try! Once i've tried these out i'll post pics for you to snoop at and let me know what you think.

DIY; decorated light switch

Just a short post from me today about my newly decorated light switch. Im not joking, i absolutely love this idea and smile at my light switch every time i look at it.
It was a spur of the moment thing and it jazzed up my room in minutes haha!

It is as simple as that! not sure how long it will last but thats the beauty of it because, its not permanent so you can change it whenever you want.
Hope you enjoyed this post and let me know what you think of this idea. Have you tried something out using a different pattern?

TAG; get to know demi

I have decided to do the get to know tag as i've seen a lot of people doing it and seeing as though i havent blogged in a while i thought it would be a good start to ease myself back into things

1. Are you named after anyone?
My middle name is after my nan, Georgia, and my first name was inspired by Demi Moore.

2. When was the last time you cried?
Yesterday, everythings been getting on top of me and crying makes me realise that life goes on (also i like the taste of tears, weird? very probably)

3. Do you have kids?
nope, im only 16 :-)

4. If you were another person, would you be friends with yourself?
Obviously, im the funniest person ever and im such an amazing singer.. okay, the answer to that is probably not ;) i'd get on my nerves haha!

5. Do you use sarcasm a lot?
non stop and constantly, my friends are always telling me they cant tell if im being serious or sarcastic and it makes me laugh so much

6. Will you ever bunjee jump?
definitely, im desperate to sky dive and would love to bunjee jump as well, but i want to do it for charity and raise lots of money for a good cause!

7. What's your favourite cereal?
I am in love with 'Krave' and i really like coco pops too

8. What's the first thing you notice about people?
This probably sounds really stuck up but in all honesty i think its their teeth and hair, i dont know why but if someone looks my way my eyes automatically fix on either of these

9. What is your eye colour?
mainly green, with yellow and red specs and dark green/blue rims, so detailed

10. Scary movies or a happy ending?
happy endings every time, i love a good horror but i always have to watch a happy/funny film afterwards

11. Favourite smell?
i love the smell of most perfumes and body sprays and i also love the smell of new shoes or trainers...

12. Summer or Winter?
to be honest, where i live its practically always winter, our summer was wet and cold and we had very few sunny days. But i loooove the cold weather and snow it just seems so much more fun

13. Computer or TV?
I probably watch my tv more than i use my laptop

14. What's the furthest you've ever been from home?
Ive been to Spain and Austria, not sure which is furthest away (my geography is extremely poor if you hadnt already guessed)

15. Do you have any special talents?
like i said, im a good singer..maybe..kinda. only joking but i dont like to think im extra special at anything i just try my best in all i do <definitely sounded like primary school rules or something haha.

16. Where were you born?
I was born Hertfordshire

17. What are your hobbies?
i would say blogging but i havent really blogged in a while (shame on me :( ), i also really like painting nails

18. Do you have any pets?
i did have a beautiful Alsatian dog called Tasha but she was put down not so long ago :( rip.

19. Favourite Movie?
I have sooooo many, at the top of my head i would probably say no strings attached

I have two older brothers, would love a sister too though !

I hope you enjoyed learning a little bit more about me, and i am hoping to post a lot more in the near future!

Demi's designs..

I have had the most manic past few months and i just havent felt up to/found time to post on my little share of the internet, that may make me seem selfish but i promise theres a valid reason!

Aaaaaanyway, I tend to paint my nails at least once a week using a range of colours from my over 80 nail art pen collection, i love painting my nails and looking for new ideas, designs and pretty patterns for my nails as its such an easy way to add a statement to your outfit.

I'll be posting pictures of any nails i paint that i think you guys would enjoy, and i hope you do!
I even have a facebook page and i would grreaaatly appreciate it if you could take a stroll here and give it a like to help me 'build an audience'!

(click to make it bigger) These are a golden tribal aztec print i tried out on my mums nails, what do you think?

P.s; if you have any ideas or requests please PLEASE let me know as it gives me an excuse to get all creative! Also if recommended i could give tutorials a go on any nails you have liked.
