I've collected up a few random things that I've enjoyed this month which are completely unrelated to everything. I decided it would be interesting to share a few random things this month instead of limiting myself to just beauty or fashion.
An app:
Jim Chapman posted on YouTube and explained his favourite apps. This included an app called Mega Jump. And O M G! The memories that brought back from 4 years ago when my friends and I were obsessed. It's basically just a little monster-thing that jumps and gets higher as it collects coins, with obstacles and power-ups on the way.
TV Shows:
I have two TV shows that I've loved this month, both are completely different from each other.
Firstly, Gogglebox. This is on Channel 4 and the series has finished now but when it was on its great fun to watch. It's simply a show about families all over Britain watching TV and they are a great laugh.
Next is In The Flesh. Series 2 is currently still running on BBC Three and the show has just recently won a BAFTA. It's about zombies, yes I know what you're thinking, but it's really interesting. It's about a fictional town called Roarton in which the dead has risen and the town are trying to rehabilitate these zombies back into society. The main character is called Kieren Walker and [spoiler alert] he is the first risen, which has its consequences. But he's beautiful and we love him, haha.
A Book:
This week was a half-term break off school so decided it would be a perfect time to start my new book. This was Ketchup Clouds by Annabel Pitcher. It took me a few days to read it and I loved it so much!! Anyone who follows me on my social media will know that I love TFIOS and after reading Ketchup Clouds, it comes very close (doesn't beat it though because c'mon, it's TFIOS). It's about a girl who has done something wrong and is confessing to a man on Death Row. You bond with every single character and build unforgettable relationships. I laughed and cried (I cried ALOT at the ending) and it was beautifully written.
A YouTube Channel:
I am not the kind of person who watches gaming channels on YouTube but this month I have loved watching Lonniedos (game channel) and his vlog channel Lonnie because he's made his gaming and vlog videos really entertaining. I can't stop watching his videos, they're really funny. Go subscribe :)
P.S. If you're not a fan of books then you don't need to worry, I wont be including books in every single post, I just have been quite a lot recently.

I didn't initially aim on doing a blog post about a concert but there was quite a lot I wanted to share so I thought 'why not?'.
I'm going to keep this as spoiler free as possible (apart form the images above)
Firstly, I'd like to mention that before this I was the kind of person that didn't do loud music, flashing lights everything in your face, so I had never been to a concert before (except a Hilary Duff concert, but that's another story). I was a concert-virgin.
In October I was asked by my friends if I would like to come to a McBusted concert, I said no. They tried to get tickets and unfortunately couldn't. A few days later McBusted released more dates and my friends asked again 'are you sure you don't want to come?', I said yes.
Now, McBusted (for those who don't know) is a merging of the band McFly and 2/3 of Busted.
They were two separate bands who have joined together to make a super group for a special tour this year. The super group consists of 6 boys: [from left to right] Danny, Dougie, Matt, James, Tom and Harry.
On 21st May 2014 I went to The Metro Radio Arena in Newcastle, along with 4 others, and had the best night of my life. We had great seats which were in the centre of the two performance stages (Main Stage and UFO) and we could see their faces clearly. The energy that was in the room was insane, the huge amount of fun that all of the audience was having was purely just what was radiated off the boys onstage. They were so enthusiastic and funny that there were no faults.
As I told you, I had never been to a concert before, but this concert kind of brought out my wild side. I may have shouted a few crazy things such as 'I love you', 'I love your boobies', 'I want your babies' and 'harder' (don't ask) ;).
Over all, it was the best experience EVER. For my first concert to be a rock/pop concert, it was daring, but it was the best.
For those who are going: enjoy.
For those who have been: OMG, right?
Others: You should get tickets!
I've been so excited to do this post for a while because there have been some distinct favourites of mine throughout this month.
Firstly, The Fault In Our Stars isn't really classed as a monthly favourite because I actually read it in January but just never got round to giving it a full appreciation. It's honestly a spectacular book and I really do think about it daily and how certain aspects of it affect the way I think. It's a piece of beautiful literature and you'll feel the saddest and happiest feelings. This came in my John Green box set which is such a great, I recommend people to get that.
I was late on the bandwagon with getting a Tangle Teezer because I was never entirely sure if they were up to their job and worth all of the fuss. I got one for Christmas as a little extra off my sister and I've been really liking it lately. I don't use it all the time because I have long hair and it needs a much larger brush through it but for softening my hair every now and then.
This Gold Necklace featured in my recent haul post. I bought it from Primark and I really love it because it goes with many outfits.
I bought this Striper Brush in WAH, back in February and I've only just got around to finally using it. It's an empty nail varnish bottle which you put Acetone Free Nail Polish Remover into with a striper brush. It's very versatile because I can now create nail art stripes with whichever colour I want.
This L'Oreal Nail Varnish in shade 205 Rose Bagatelle has been my favourite for a while. I bought this shade when actually on the search for 204 but I've actually decided that I like this one better. It's a nude/pink colour which is lovely and subtle, just the colour that I love to wear.
This Heart & Home Candle in Rambling Rose was a Christmas present that I started burning in April and I think it's a great dupe for Yankee Candle's Fresh Cut Roses, if not, stronger. It's a great smell to get you through spring and lightens up your day.
My film favourite of April would be The Amazing Spiderman 2 (which I actually went to see in May, but it was released in April). I am NOT an action film lover and have poor knowledge in Superheros but after watching The Amazing Spiderman I was soo eager to see the sequel and I wasn't disappointed. I loved it!! The actors were excellent and the storyline was thrilling. I recommend.
