If you're into baby names, like I am, you must visit NameBerry, it's fabulous. For boys, I like strong traditional names like:

Samuel

Benjamin

Thomas

Joseph

And for girls I like more unusual names, eg:

           Mila {'Mee-la'}

Jessa

            Matisse {'Mah-tee-sa'}

           Zayanne {'Zay-anna'}

Willa

And I sometimes love nature names, for middle names:

Reed

River

Forest

Wren

Aaaahh, I can't wait to have kids and give them awesome names.

For some colourful inspiration, go and see Katie, from Colour Me Katie. She does the most awesome thing...

Aaaahh, she's so cool.

Songs + Cats

Aloha my friends, I hope you are all well.

I don't have much to say, as I have not been well lately.

Well the other night I chopped my hair off, so it's much shorter in some places. I'm thinkin' of making some bright royal blue streaks in it somewhere...

I found this cute little idea for doing a canvas:

They are so easy to do, and look so pretty.

Also, my rosette tutorial was featured on Jordan's blog. Go and check it out, she has lots of craft, food, hair, and game ideas, sent in from girls all around the planet.

The following are a few of my Youtube favourites. They are all covers of classic songs...

'The Climb'

Ahmir

These guys are amazing; I just LOVE their smooth, perfect voices.

'Hallelujah'

The most beautiful version of the most beautiful song. I wish I had a voice like the second girl that sings.


"I'm Yours"

The most adorable boy goin' around. Love his itchy nose!

'Fireflies'

Sam Tsui

This guy is amazing- so clever, and has an amazing voice!!

At the moment, I'm so clucky. I WANT A BABY. But it's not just tiny humans I'm craving. 
I want a cat.

So much.

So I cant take photos like these.

Have someone always on my side.

Someone who gazes at me and doesn't care what I look like.

Someone to make me smile.

Someone to snuggle up with.

Someone who needs me!

{P.s. Not saying that I don't have someone to make me smile and who needs me etc; I just want a cat!!}
