The sun has got his hat on...and I have nothing to wear

Hey guys!

So as the suns come out today I've decided to get out of my pyjamas and in to some actual clothes I can be seen with. Rooted through my wardrobe for about an hour (literally), my wardrobe is just full of jumpers and leggings, all the winter clothes. A shopping trip for summer clothes is a must really soon! Anyways back on to my outfit, so I threw on a maroon skirt and a top I have, a maroon scarf and some accessories!

Top - Primark £7
Cardigan - h&m £14
Bracelets - Clair's £1, others are friendship bracelets
Bangles - new look £4
Black ring - bhs £1.50
Necklace - cant remember (0ops)

Face of East Lancashire... i'm famous (almost)!!

I'm currently the face of the East Lancashire libraries campaign, that by the way is a on going process!

So this time last year i took part in a huge photo shoot with a professional photographer and loads of other people behind the whole thing. This photo shoot was part of a campaign, and so my picture (after being manhandled by a gorgeous man, and put in various positions) was used on the side of buses, billboards, postcards, telephone boxes, posters, placed in various public places, and some in private shops. The aim of the campaign was to promote libraries across Lancashire. Mainly the East! This campaign was shortlisted for two national marketing awards. the ouotcome of the campaign was brilliant and we had more people coming in.

Just some pictures from the campaign..

I got off at the wrong stop, turned around and saw the bus had my face on the side of it! i thought i was seeing things but then a young boy pointed to me and said 'that girl looks like you' then i knew i wasn't the only one seeing my face on the side of a Rossendale bus! 

 This is where the launch of the campaign began, i was driven 5 minutes from my home, on the day of the launch (of this billboard) and they revealed the end 'picture' it was exciting moment, and thanks to my friends for being with me at the launch. 

 After the launch i was then taken back to the main centre  which was of course the library. they then took a few snaps to use on the internet, social networking sites and the newspapers! 

i was at college a few month after the campaign had started and thought 'lets Google myself' and so i did! and i am the first picture on Google  i laughed at my self.. a lot and so did my friends!

yep, they're boobs - and that is in fact my signature ..not on my own boobs of course, cause that would be weird! my friend, Kellie, asked me yo do it and yea. 

cant thank my friends enough for being with me on this crazy journey. Its even weirder when i get noticed on the streets, a councillor recognised me the other day and asked me 'are you that girl from the posters?' i was rather surprised as i thought that they'd have taken my pictures down by now because...well it has been a year and 2 weeks (not counting). i'm still plastered...erm everywhere it seems. xo

'You fat sh#^'

hey,

Not posted in a while because i've been burried under my college books.

I've come to realise that i finally need to lose weight. Mainly because i want to like what i see when i look into the mirror.

Here is some history...
When i was younger i got bullied and called names this continued to high school. My weight had always been a problem, i could never find anything that fit me properly, and i avoided family meetings/meals and occasion. i dont get bullied anymore (apart from the odd comments from my brothers but family is family right?), having a HUGE family theres always a wedding, birth, meal rather regularly. I would cry to not attend most of them, just so people wouldnt see me. i hated the way i looked and never felt comfortable anywhere. most of the days i would just go to school then come home and straight into my room. i tried dieting - literally tried everything. the apple diet, bringing my food back up, slimming courses, tablets, fasting and many more i cant even remember. When i started college i was opened up to a new world, i met different people that didnt judge me. i felt accepted. i still hated the way i looked, but decided that this might be just the way i am. i met my best friend at college - Curtis. Hes helped me through so much, and still stands right besides me. Anyways, mainly he was the reason i started accepting the way i looked. I then went on to doing another course at college so i no longer saw Curtis as much as i really wanted to. we stayed best friends, we still text. i think not having Curtis around me everyday anymore makes it slightly harder for me. Everyone in my new course seems to be 'skinnier' i am literally probably the only one that is a plus size...and its annoying. everyone's so pretty and petite. only recently i was literally dragged to a cousins wedding, everyone was so beautifully dressed, i couldnt wear what i wanted because i couldnt fit into it, or i wouldnt look good init. after that night i came home lead in my bed and thought to myself what if its genetics, what if ican never actually lose weight. I began to accept my body again but now on a strict healthy diet just at least im eating clean and looking after my health. 

if there's is one person i wish i could look like it would be Sophia Bush
