Asdfghjkl...this book is amazing! Okay, so my friend Lish dragged me and several of our other friends to the cinema a while back to the the city of bones as she'd read the book and wanted to see it. I had not read the book at the time and I knew very little about it. Anyway, we saw the film and I really liked it. So for my birthday a few weeks back, she got me the fist book of the mortal instruments.
I only started reading it yesterday as I got the rest of the books from my parents. I have already read nearly 400 pages (there's about 500 pages in the book) and I love it so much! Half the time I can't put it down because it's so good. Parts of it are quite different to the film which is quite good and it's just brilliant!
SPOILERS!
So in the book Simon gets turned into a rat which I don't remember happening in the film and I just find it hilarious especially when Jace says "he's cute like that. Look at his pink little nose." I also think that Jace seems like more of an ass in the books, flirting with girls a lot and being really rude to poor Simon. I like the way that in the book you get to know more about what Clary is thinking and how she's feeling, whereas in the film you don't really get that.
This isn't a very long post becaus I want to get back to my book, but if any of you have been thinking about reading the book but haven't yet I really suggest you should because it is amazing!

Christmas
Christmas was a few days ago now and so I thought I'd tell you all a bit about my Christmas. My family and I opened presents in the morning and I received lots of lovely presents including eight books and Sherlock DVDs. (I will probably blog about the books as and when I read them)
My family and I then met up with some more family members at a restaurant where we had our Christmas dinner. We had a slot booked for 2pm and they were running very late and we didn't get taken to out table until nearly 3pm. The food was okay. The roast potatoes were horrible which was disappointing but we did get our food quite quickly. At one point we all got bored and a little silly so we started using our spoons to flick bits of paper from our Christmas crackers across the table at each other. (This happens every year with my family when we are having Christmas dinner)
After that, we all went back to mine and my parents house to open the rest of our presents. Within which I got another seven books and the whole of death note on DVD. Then my mum, sister, aunt and I began working on the buffet. We ended up with loads more food than we needed and so we've been trying to finish it off over the past couple of days.
Overall, Christmas was really good, I got loads of wonderful presents, had some nice food and got to spend time with my amazing family. I'd just like to say thank you to all my friends who got me a Christmas present this year, you're all amazing and I love you so much!
I hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas too and I hope you have a great new year!

My Top 10... YOUTUBERS!
As you all know, I really love youtubers, so I thought I'd share my top 10 with you all.
1. Dan Howell. Aka danisnotonfire. Who else did you expect? I can't remember exactly when I first started watching his videos but I remember that I found him after I found Phil on YouTube. I am literally in love with Dan. It's a really unhealthy obsession, but I can nearly always relate to the things he says in his videos and he always makes me laugh and feel better about myself.

I am literally in love with Dan. It's a really unhealthy obsession, but I can nearly always relate to the things he says in his videos and he always makes me laugh and feel better about myself.
2. Phil Lester. Aka amazingphil. He was one of the first youtubers I started watching and I loved him within seconds of watching one of his videos. He's aybserloutly adorable and hilarious. I love his friendship with Dan, it's a very unique friendship that most people will never experience.
3. The janoskians. I find them hilarious, I love all their pranks and public disturbance videos. Plus they're Australian which is a bonus haha!
4. Zoella. Zoe is the person I turn to when I just want to watch a more girly video. When I want make-up tips or some fashion advice. She's also really funny and her videos always bring a smile to my face.
5. Marcus Buter. "Heeeeeeellllllllloooooooo!" Hahaha I love Marcus, he's so funny and incredibly good looking too. I love how childish he can be and I always watch his videos when I want to watch something fun and lighthearted especially if I've had a bad day and just want to laugh.
6. PJ. I love Peej. He is the best storyteller ever! I love stories and I always find his so fun and inspirational. Whenever I'm looking for some creativity I turn to his videos. Plus his voice is so captivating which I probably part of the reason he's such a good story teller.
7. Itswaypastmybedtime. Aka Carrie Fletcher. I can relate to Carrie in many ways, I think we have very similar personalities. She's a really inspirational person, always helping others and being a successful West-end actress now. Her videos are always inspiring and funny!
8. Troye Sivan. I only started watching his videos in about August, but I think he's brilliant. He's hilarious and I love his videos. I think was incredibly brave when he posted his coming out video and it really made me like him more. He's brilliant in ever way.
9. Alfie Deyes. Aka pointlessblog. Alfie is one of the funniest youtubers ever, but he can also be inspirational which is a great combination. Although he has massive eyebrows, he also has a massive heart and I think he's great!
10. Emma Blackery. She's funny, honest, sassy and inspirational. I love her hilarious stories and her honest opinions. She's one of the sassiest youtubers ever and I think it's brilliant. She's also a really talented singer which is a bonus!
If you haven't watched any of any of their videos then you really should because they're all amazing. If I could then I would tell you about all the other youtubers I like but I have limited myself to 10 haha!

Hospitals and Red Roses
Today has been a pretty good day, I woke up at about eight which is quite early for me on a Saturday. I started the day by exercising for about an hour which is good. I used my new Soap and Glory products which are amazing! I done loads of chores too as my dad threatened to turn the wifi off haha!
Yesterday was a horrible day though as my mum became very ill and had to go to hospital. This happens every so often, but her medication is supposed to help. However it obviously didn't help her yesterday. Our neighbour and my sister took her to the hospital, leaving me at home on my own. This was when I was glad I had Amy to talk to as I was extremely worried about my mum. Luckily, later that evening my mum came home. Her medication will be changing and she has to take it easy for a few days, but she'll be okay. Just got to survive till her operation in London next year.
So my sister and I went out today and got some beautiful red roses for my mum to try to cheer her up a bit. I'm glad she was sent home and I'm hoping nothing like that happens at Christmas because she gets very stressed at Christmas which can set it off. When things like that happen it helps you to not take your parents for granted.
I hope you guys are all having a good week and are looking forward to Christmas. Have a good day chums!

Best Beauty Buy
A few days ago I ordered one of the Soap and Glory bags called 'the Yule Monty' which has loads of amazing beauty products inside and I thought I'd tell you all about it!
So, it's in a massive pink and silver travel bag. It was originally about £60 but I only paid about £30 for mine as it was half price.
The first item is the Righteous Butter. Which is 300ml. I have used this stuff before and it is really good, it makes your skin much softer and is really good on dry skin too.
Next is the Peaches and Clean which is a 200ml cleanser. I have not used this before but it says it's appropriate for all skin types and who doesn't love the smell of peaches?
Then there's the Butter Yourself moisture lotion which is 500ml. Again, I have not used this before but apparently is good for rough elbows, bumpy upper arms and flaky lower legs. I don't really have any of those but I'm sure it's a great body moisturiser.
There's the Sugar Crush body wash which is also 500ml. I have used this before and I really liked it. I have really sensitive skin which can flare up really bad with most products but I found that this one didn't so I'm really glad I've got this massive bottle to keep me going.
Next is the Scrub of Your Life which is 200ml. I haven't used this one before either but it's supposed to be super-smoothing and I look forward to testing that theory.
The Heel Genius is the 125ml foot cream. I have not used this one before, but if it's anything like the hand cream then I look forward to using it. It also says "no mean feet" on the back which I find cute and funny haha!
Then there's Hand Food which is the hand cream. Again, it's 125ml. I have used this hand cream before and I really love it! It makes my hands really soft especially when I need it most in the winter because my hands can get really dry.
Next is the Thick and Fast 10ml mascara. I haven't used this before and I don't know a lot about it but it says "super volume" on it so hopefully it's good.
Finally it's the Extreme Plump 10ml lip gloss. I've never used this before either but it says "sexy mother pucker" on it which gives me high hopes haha!
Those are all the products apart from the bag obviously. Unfortunately Boots do not have any of these particular kits left but I do suggest you try out some of Soap and Glory's products because they are amazing!

Christmas preparations
It's six days till Christmas now. Only six days. So I thought I'd make a list of all the preparations that need to be done for Christmas. Let's begin!
1. Decorations. You need to get your tree up, put up the lights and tinsel etc. I actually always find it really fun to put up the decorations, especially the tree. You need to make everything as Christmassy as possible!
2. Buying presents. I have already got most of my presents. You have to try to get gifts suited to the people you're buying them for, even if you can't afford a lot, it's the thought that counts.
3. Wrapping presents. This involves quite a bit of hard work. Especially the odd shaped presents haha! But wrapping is essential, you have to use the most fun looking Christmas wrapping paper you can find!
4. Food. I love buying the food for Christmas, whether it's a turkey or food for a buffet or just loads of sweets! We are having a buffet this year which means we need lots of food to feed all the people coming over.
5. Tidy up. If you're having people over at Christmas then you need to make sure that your house is not a mess or people will probably trip over and break their legs which is not fun on Christmas Day haha!
I thought there would be more preparation but I can't think of anything else. Maybe this will help some of you prepare for Christmas, I hope it does haha! Have a good day chums!

Would You Rather Beauty Tag
I got this from Lish, sorry, I was too lazy to come up with anything else today!
1.Would you rather go out with messy hair and nice make-up or Nice hair and no make-up?
Nice hair and no make up probably.
2.Would you rather shave your eyebrows or have your eyelashes fall out?
Shave my eyebrows because it would look really funny!
3.Would you rather be forced to shop at only MAC or Sephora for the rest of your life?
MAC
4.Would you rather wear lip gloss/lip liner look or 80's perm?
80's perm because they're awesome!
5.Would you rather leave the house with an obvious foundation line or overdone blush?
Overdone blush although either would be pretty bad.
6.Would you rather wear MC Hammer pants or biker shorts in public?
MC Hammer pants, they are much cooler!
7.Would you rather have a bad orange-y spray tan or really weird tan lines that can't be covered?
Weird tan lines. Who wants to be orange?!
8.Would you rather have a bad haircut or bad hair colour?
Bad hair cut because you can get it cut again soon after somewhere else whereas you have to wait ages for colour to fade or dye it again.
9.Would you rather have you tube or twitter taken away forever?
Why would you do this to me?! Ugh, twitter.
10. Would you rather give up using make-up brushes or mascara?
Mascara. It's not like I really need it that much anyway.
If you liked the tag you should do it yourself. Have a good day chums!

Crushes
I am a teenage girl. This means that occasionally there will be a boy that I will like quite a bit. I have had many 'crushes' throughout my 17 years of life. I refuse to actually name any of them, they will all be people I actually knew/know and not famous ones.
I'm going to start with my first crush, which was when I was about five. It was a boy I was friends with at the time (even though when you're five you're friends with everyone really) and his mum and my mum were really good friends. We used to go round each others houses all the time but eventually I stopped liking him because I was about five.
Next was when I was about 12 (wow Claire you've liked so many people) he was a few years older than me. When I look back now I cringe at the fact that I ever liked him. I ended up going out with him but then he dumped me for one of my best friends and so now I hate him. It's not a story I like to tell people because it makes me feel like I'm second best and that I will never be good enough.
Then it was a guy in my history class in year 11, when I was 15/16. I liked him for over a year and I hated it because I was convinced that he would never like me back. My friends would constantly tease me about it and Paige once told him loads of embarrassing stories about me. I actually ended up dating one of his best friends and kind of stopped liking him.
I went out with this guy recently because I kind of liked him and I found out that he liked me. However, one of my friends liked him so it was pretty awkward. But after a few weeks I realised that I didn't like him enough that way to continue our relationship so I ended it with him. He was pretty mad at me to begin with but I think we're okay now.
The next one is the guy I currently like. He's in my sociology class and he's retaking so he's technically in the year above me. I don't really know him too well so I don't like him loads but I also don't really understand why I like him anyway. He's always getting told off for talking and he's into kind of punk rock music (I think). My friends are now finding out that I like him and it's kind of annoying but at the same time I'm glad I can talk to someone about it. I don't know if I'll continue to like him or not but I guess I'll find out sooner or later.
I may have had more crushes than this, but I have the memory of like a goldfish so I can't remember any others.

My Top 10... FILMS!
My top 10 films are:
1. The Hunger Games and Catching Fire - I put these two together because they are obviously part of a series and I love them both equally. I have not read the books but I will be getting them for Christmas. Both films are incredible though, I have the first one on DVD and I've watched it about twenty times haha. I saw catching fire at the cinema a few weeks ago when it first came out and it was amazing.
2. Pirates of the Caribbean on Stranger Tides - obviously, we have the fact that it's staring Johnny Depp who is such an incredible actor. There are mermaids in this one too which is why I love it so much, I also find it hilarious. The other films are really good too, but this one is definitely my favourite.
3. Harry Potter films - I put them all together because I can't pick which one I like the most. I love the books and I love the films. I saw the films first obviously and I loved them so much. I saw the last ever one at the cinema with my mum and we cried. Probably the best film series ever!
4. Alice in Wonderland - this is the Tim Burton version as it is much better than the others. Again, it's staring Johnny Depp as the mad hatter. I love the characters in Alice in Wonderland and it was one of my favourite stories as a child, I always saw myself as a bit of an 'Alice' to be honest haha.
5. Daybreakers - this film gives a much more realistic idea of vampires. They will not sparkle and fall in love with you. They will drink your blood. I saw this at the cinema when I was 13 and it was a 15 certificate but came out on DVD as an 18 so I felt so badass. My friend and I got told off for laughing when a guy's head got chopped off.
6. The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones - my friend had read the book and forced us all to go and see the film with her. It was amazing. I pissed me off near the end, but I still loved it. I will be reading the books now. I really want them to make the next one into a film too because I'd love to see what happens next.
7. Beautiful Creatures - this is another book based film. It was so good though, I loved how they were called casters instead of witches, it makes the film different to others about witches. I thought that parts of it were incredibly sad and it made me so mad at times haha. It kind of ended on a cliff hanger which has annoyed me.
8. The Incredibles - I'm sorry for sounding like a child, but this is the best animated superhero film ever! I love the way it involves the whole family too, when I was a child I always wanted my parents to come over to me one day and tell me that they're superheroes and that I'm one too haha.
9. Dispicable Me - oh my gosh. I've only seen this the one time, but I loved it. It was hilarious and amazing. I also really want my own minion now, they're so cute. And when he kisses them all goodnight...awwww.
10. Love Actually - it's hilarious, Christmassy, and romantic. It's also got my mums favourite actor in it, Alan Rickman, who portrayed Severus Snape in Harry Potter. The film always makes me laugh and I find it such a sweet film too and it gets me into the Christmas spirit.
Thos are my top 10 favourite films, I'll do another top 10 soon. They're in no particular order really, I guess my most favourite ones are near the top.

Cursed
I am one of those people that have bad things happen to them all the time. I swear I'm probably cursed!
So today I found out that my brand new headphones don't actually connect to my phone properly so I had to walk home only listening to half of Alone Together by Fall Out Boy which annoyed me so much! Yesterday I burnt mine, Amy and lish's pizza. On my birthday! A few days ago I brought a hot chocolate and if thought I waited long enough for it to cool down before I drank any but I was wrong and I burnt my mouth.
I have a feeling it's worse on Friday the 13th because last year I slipped into a massive muddy puddle and I was covered in mud head to toe all day! Right now everyone keeps telling me to be careful because it's Friday 13th this Friday. I may have to blame my nanny for the whole Friday 13th part though because bad things happen to her too as last year she broke her arm on Friday 13th.
On my birthday danisnotonfire aka my favourite youtuber was supposed to be uploading a new video which was really exciting, but it wasn't uploaded until the next day because it took so long for him to edit it and I didn't get to see the new video on my birthday. I also forgot my phone when I went to sixth form on my birthday so I couldn't reply to anyone's "happy birthday" texts either.
I am constantly tripping over things, even if there's nothing to actually trip over I still manage to trip. I fall UP the stairs and down them too. I always burn food whenever I try to cook. I am super clumsy, do not let me hold anything that might break because I will drop it and you will hate me.
I hope I'm not actually cursed. If I am then I hope I get cured because I am a good person who does not deserve to suffer! Haha, have a great day guys!

Friendship
This post is about friendship. I've had many different friends throughout my sixteen (almost seventeen) year of existence, but none have ever really been as good as the ones I have now. I've been friends with bitchy people, drama queens, annoying people, mean people, the list goes on. It wasn't until I became friends with my current friends that I learnt the true meaning of friendship.
We're going to start with Amy, simply because her name begins with an A. I don't remember when I met Amy, I think it was in English in year eight though. She had a nice little fringe back then haha. We became quite good friends throughout the years and we've grown a lot closer lately as she's in my sociology and maths classes at sixth form so I see her the most. She is a really kind and funny person who I am privileged to have her as a friend. Near the end of summer Amy got a job at Burger King and became the "burger queen". I remember that we would call her "A* Amy" because she used to always get an A* in tests. Back in year eight or nine she called me bandana lady because I wore a bandana a few times (I was really cool). That was around the time when we discovered that her mum and my aunt were really good friends in high school. Lately we've spent a lot of time together and she's probably my closest friend right now. She knows all my secrets and we have great times on the late bus with her "bump noises" haha. I hope I never lose contact with her when we both go off to university or become a manager at Burger King haha!
Next is Paige. I think I met Paige in year eight too, I'm not sure though because I have the memory of a deranged goldfish. We bonded through laughing at lish during PE saying she ran like a penguin. We grew closer over the years and eventually she became my "zero best friend". I have written a whole blog post about her if you want to know more about her. She's one of the funniest people on the whole planet and I really do miss her so much now as she's a college while I'm at sixth form. I wish I could see her more often as I'm worried we are drifting apart.
Lish is third. I met lish in year eight. Obviously our friendship started with Paige and I laughing at her (which we still do now). We became really good friends over the past few year as we have a lot in common. We both love the same tv shows, films, books, some of the same music. This means that we always have something to talk about and we get along really well. She's a very short girl who's obsessed with the vampire diaries and the wanted. She's boy crazy (which is not surprising when you know how many celeb crushes she has) and she's very cheery. She's always there for you when you're upset and she's a genuinely nice person who I'm glad I'm friends with!
Moving on to the fabulous Elli. (I have wrote a whole blog post about her too because she complained about not being in my blog enough) I have known Elli since fist school. We have had our differences in the past, but now we get along so well. We're in the same psychology class which brought us closer together and I call her Beryll sometimes.She's absolutely hilarious and so small. I swear she has the worlds tiniest hands, they're so adorable. She's definitely slightly insane, but that's what makes her who she is. She's a kind girl who's super smart (smarter than me haha) and she gives amazing cuddles!
The last few (I'm only writing them all together because I'm tired and lazy now haha) are Siobhan, who it completely obsessed with horrible histories and yonderland. We've had our differences but overall we're really good friends and she's really funny and nice. There's also Maddy who I only met a few months ago, but she's really nice and funny and we have psychology together so we're getting to know each other better. Jessie is a wonderful person who's hilarious and cuddly. She is just as weird as Elli but that's a good thing haha. There's also Kezia, I've known her since year seven. She's one of the kindest people ever and she's really smart and funny too. I remember once in English she spilt her water all over the the table and we spent the rest of the lesson slowly cleaning it up and it was hilarious. Ellen is incredibly good at art and photography. She's a really funny and kind person. I remember we were really close in year nine and we had this "immature" fight.
There are probably a few people I haven't talked about yet, I'm sorry if I did leave anyone out. I love all my friends so much and I'm so glad I met every single one of them!

Health and Fitness
It's quite ironic that I'm blogging about health and fitness since I am currently the most unhealthy person like, ever! However, I am tired of being unfit and overweight so I am starting a new diet and fitness regime. I would normally say "oh I'll start that tomorrow or Monday" but not this time. I am starting now. I am really excited about this because it means I'll be able to lose some weight, which I really need to do haha. It will also make me feel much happier.
Luckily there are two exercise machines in my house, and I have my own weights. This means I don't have to go to any gyms or have to use an exercise DVD (because they really annoy me). It will be tough to only eat healthy food and exercise every day, but I will constantly remind myself why I am doing it which will hopefully motivate me to keep going.
I know that it will be a long and difficult process for me, but I know that it will be worth it. I'm going to be 17 soon and I don't want to be stuck this weight for the rest of my life. My friends and family always tell me that I'm fine and I don't need to lose weight, but I really do and I need them to be supportive of me. I want 2014 to be the year I achieve my goal weight, hopefully by the end of February (or sooner, I don't know) in time to see my favourite band as a way to "earn" the concert tickets for myself.
If any of you want to get fit or have some kind of goal that you want to achieve, then go for it. Start now. Right now. You'll succeed. And you'll feel great about it. Hope you all have a great day!

Luckily there are two exercise machines in my house, and I have my own weights. This means I don't have to go to any gyms or have to use an exercise DVD (because they really annoy me). It will be tough to only eat healthy food and exercise every day, but I will constantly remind myself why I am doing it which will hopefully motivate me to keep going.

Exciting Events
There are so many events coming up that I'm really excited about. So I thought I'd tell you all about them.
First, is my birthday! Which is in exactly a week! That's seven days guys! I'm really excited. I'm going to be getting some 5sos stuff, some CDs, some books, and some money. My two friends Amy and Lish are coming round mine in the afternoon and we're going to have pizza and watch films. I have got sixth form on my birthday, but I only have one actual lesson, the rest is private study and conference.
Second, is Christmas! I am excited for Christmas for obvious reasons. I'm not going to go on too much about it. I'll be getting Death Note DVDs, more books, more CDs, more 5sos stuff, and Sherlock.
Third, is ice-skating. I don't know when we're actually going to go, but my friends and I are going to go ice-skating at some point. It will be me, Amy, Emma, Elli, Lish, Siobhan, Emily, Kezia, Paige, and probably some other people I have forgotten. (Sorry if I forgot anyone)
Fourth, is new year. I am excited for it to be the new year because it means I can make new crap New Years resolutions that I don't stick to and stay up till midnight, though I'll probably be in bed by seven. I can also open my "good things in 2013" jar and look back through all the good things that have happened this year.
Fifth, is lish's birthday in January. I'm excited for this because we will probably do something for her birthday which will be fun!
Sixth, is city of bones comes out on DVD in January. I'm excited because I saw the film at the cinema and I loved it, hence I'm getting the books, and I really want to be able to watch it again.
Seventh, is the 5SOS concert! I am buzzing so much for this! I have not shut up about the concert since I got tickets! I just...ASDFGHJKLZXCVBNMQWERTYUIOP! Sorry, I'm a bit excited!
Eighth, the fault in our stars movie. I am incredibly worried that the movie won't be as good as the book and that I'll be disappointed. But hopefully it will be amazing and make me cry like the book did.
Ninth, is summer in the city. I don't know when tickets are actually going to be available, but I really want to go. Chances are, they'll either be too expensive, sell out, or my parents won't let me go. But I'm hoping I'll get to go so I can meet all my favourite youtubers!
Tenth, is the 5SOS album. I don't know when it's actually coming out. The boys keep saying it will be soon, but who knows?! I really just want to listen to the whole album already!
So, quite a few exciting things that I am looking forward to. I hope you all have some great things to look forward to too!

Winter Wonderland
I love winter, it's my second favourite season. First of all, you have Christmas. Christmas is amazing obviously, with the presents, food, family, food, Santa, food. Secondly, there's snow. I love snow! You can build a snowman, have snowball fights, get into trouble for having snowball fights. Plus the snow looks really pretty when it lays on the ground. Thirdly time off school/sixth form etc. This means, no work to do which is always nice. No annoying teachers or deadlines.
I know that there are also bad sides to winter. If you're poor then it's difficult to afford good presents, if any, which can be quite depressing and make you feel bad. Secondly, you might not be able to see your family at Christmas, if you're away or they are. Thirdly, it can be quite stressful having to cook the dinner or make the buffet, to buy and wrap the presents. Finally, it's very, very cold! However, there are several things you can do to keep warm during winter, here are a few of my suggestions.
Things you can do to keep warm:
1. Use lots of blankets
2. Drink hot drinks
3. Wear thick coats, hats, gloves, scarves
4. Wear big thick jumpers
5. Fluffy socks
6. Cuddles
7. Staying in your warm comfy bed
8. Fires and heating
9. Not actually going outside
10. The heat from your computer on your lap
I hope you all enjoy this winter, get all the presents you want and stay warm. Speak to you later my lovelies!
