The joys of being ill

So, for the past few days I've been really quite ill. Therefore I thought I'd tell you about all the fun things to do when you are ill! 

1. You can sit in bed all day. As you are ill, you have an excuse to just stay in bed and not do anything! 

2. You can watch your favourite tv show all day! (I watch Death Note for two days straight) 

3. You get days off school (unless you've left school or are doing exams or something in which case it's probably better that you go to school)

4. You can give your wonderful illness to all the people that you don't like! 

5. You can...oh, there aren't anymore things.

As you can see, being ill is not particualrly fun at all. I just stayed in bed all through the weekend watching death note and YouTube videos until Monday. I had to go to sixth form on Monday and it was horrible because I was still really ill and I just wanted to go home and sleep but no, I had to do maths instead! But I am getting better now. At the end of the day, I was only ill for a little while. 

If you are currently ill too, or get ill over the next few days, I wish you luck in getting better. It's inevitable that I'll get ill again though because it's winter and I'm in the uk. Thanks for reading all you wonderful people (by people I mean like the two people who actually read my posts) and I hope you have a good day!

Size

    Ok so this post is about something very important to me. It's about size. I'm not talking about the size of a house or a book, I'm talking about the size of a person. How many people think that they are fat? How many people wish they were skinnier? How many people think they're too skinny?

    Our society has become so obsessed with being this 'perfect weight'. But to be honest it's a load of rubbish. No one is too fat or too skinny. Everybody is different. Being different is being unique, which is a good thing. It's not about how much you weigh or what size your jeans are. It's about the person you are inside. I know it's difficult to believe that these days because everyone is pressuring you to look a certain way, but you you are beautiful. Just they way you are. The only 'ugly' people in the world are the ones who are calling you "too fat" or "too skinny". Everyone else is perfect in their own way.

    If you aren't happy with your weight then do something about it. Don't do anything stupid like starving yourself because that will only make it worse. Just make small changes to your diet and work at a slow pace. But never think that you are fat and ugly because you can be a size 18 and be beautiful, or you can be a size 6 and be beautiful. The only people who will tell you that you aren't, are the people who will always be ugly.

    I am so sick of hearing some people calling other people really fat or too skinny. You have no right to judge other people. Everyone is different and you need to get over it. People are different sizes, you can't use it as an excuse to be mean. These people have feelings too and you're hurting them. They are happy so stop finding things, like their size, to put them down.

    It's mostly teenage girls that worry about their weight. I'm here to tell you that you don't need to worry. You are perfect just the way you are. If you're happy then just go with it. Don't worry about what other people think because chances are, they're worrying about the exact same thing. So stop obsessing over your weight, you're beautiful and you have to try to believe that.

My jerk of an ex boyfriend

  Just a little story about my horrible ex boyfriend. Hopefully you will find a use of my failure with this guy who was a complete jerk (I don't know if I'm allowed to swear on here so I'll just say jerk which is an understatement) and well...oh just read it and you'll understand.

That jerk who dumped me for one of my best friends. 

   If the massive writing didn't give away what my first proper boyfriend was like then I don't know what will. Ok, so his name was Aj (what a stupid name) and he was about a year and a half older than me. I met him through a friend when I was about 13 and I developed a little bit of a crush on him (I look back now and wonder why though because he was not particularly attractive). He didn't actually ask me out until he had actually left school by which point I was 15. He asked me over Facebook and we went to the cinema. It was alright but I felt like we had nothing in common. After a few dates he began cancelling on me all the time. He once cancelled three of our dates in the matter of a week. Soon after this we broke up. I wasn't too upset when it ended because I didn't really feel like it was working, plus the fact that he kept cancelling our dates made me think that something weird was going on.

   About a week after Aj and I broke up I received a Facebook message from him, revealing that he had been dating one of my best friends in secret since we broke up. This was the thing that made me break down into tears. Ironically, Breakeven by the Script was playing the moment I found out and it felt like a scene from a movie. I then texted my friend to ask her if it was true and she confirmed that it was. It wasn't the fact that she went out with him that upset me the most, it was that she didn't even tell me and when I was with him she was one of the ones who told me that I should end it with him.

   But that is all history. My friend and I are still friends now, we've both moved on. I kind of see it as a life lesson now, that even the people closest to you will still hurt you and some guys are just complete jerks.

Anyway, thanks for reading about my lovely failure of a love life, have a nice day!

5SOS

Ok, so there is a band called 5 seconds of summer (or 5sos) who are a rock/pop band. They're Australian, there are four members: Ashton Irwin, Michael Clifford, Luke Hemmings and Calum Hood. They are currently touring with One Direction and they are insanely talented. I have become very obsessed with them, it's become really unhealthy for me. I am constantly listening to their music and talking about them. To be honest with you, they're just four Australian weirdos who are extremely talented.

Michael Clifford is my favourite member. He's currently 17, 18 in November, and he plays lead guitar. He is constantly dying his hair different colours, it is bright blue right now. He loves pizza and playing video games and he loves Blink 182 (who are awesome). My friends and family always tease me about liking him but it just makes me like him even more.

I recently got my friend, Lish, to like them too. She originally didn't think she would like them because she doesn't really like One Direction but she does like them. Her favourite is Ashton and I am so proud that she finally likes them too because now we can fangirl together!

If you have never listened to any of 5 seconds of summer's music then you really should because they are ridiculously talented! Thanks for reading, have a nice day!

Hello World

Hello random people who just happened to stumble upon my blog, or people who I have somewhat forced into reading my blog. My name is Claire. I am British, from Norfolk although I don't have a Norfolk accent, I am too posh. I am 16 years old, but I'm sure that will change on the 9th December (if you didn't guess that's my birthday...send me a present!) and I am currently in sixth form studying sociology, psychology and maths.

So that's me. I'm not a very interesting person. I spend most of my time at sixth form, fangirling, listening to music, watching YouTube videos and being a total loser. I'm going to try posting every day, but chances are I will forget because I have the memory of a goldfish. If you like my blog then... What do you do on this site? I don't know, retweet? Like? Subscribe? Whatever you do when you like a blog I think you should do it. Thanks for reading, if you did actually read this!

Claire :)
