Hello everyone!
 
Today's post is going to be about everything that happened for my birthday.
 
As you previously know i went to go see Dirty Dancing as this was part of my birthday present. Click here if you would like to see the blog post. Then on Saturday 29th November we travelled to Manchester to go see Enrique Iglesias on tour. He was doing his concert at the Manchester Phones 4 U Arena. This was also a part of my birthday present. I went to the concert with my mum as she is also a big Enrique fan and my dad came along too as he was our taxi. 
 
Before the concert started we went for something to eat. This was a hard task! everywhere we went the restuarants were either packed full of people and couldnt move, no food left, over an hour waiting for a table or was only letting people who had reservations in. Manchester city was full of people on nights out, waiting for the concert, christmas shopping or at the christmas markets so we went at a busy time but luckily we found somewhere to eat which was a little resturant called La Tasca which sells Spanish tapas, we have never eaten anything like this but we thought we would give it a try.

 
Here is me sat in La Tasca. It was such a nice resturant, really cosy with the candles on each table and dimmed lighting. The meal was lovely! we chose safer options such as dishes that included chicken etc as we didn't know what the food would be like but we enjoyed it once it all arrived and especially the puddings which you can see above. My dad ordered a waffle which came with salted caramel icecream and chocolate sauce and then me and my mum shared a white chocolate with strawberries cheescake which also came with 4 churros and chocolate sauce. This was delicious!
 
 
When it was closer to the time we headed back to the arena. We were sat in block 215 Row H so we had a good view of the whole stage/the rest of the arena. The only downside was that we couldn't see the backdrop that was playing videos as the side screens were blocking it and also as we were sat at the sides we had the look at the screens diagonally. So to be honest i didn't get any good close up photos of Enrique whilst he was performing.
 
Demi Lovato was also performing as a special. She was really good live! She sang songs such as Skyscraper, Neon Lights and Let It Go, so yes i was singing my heart out to it.
 
Then it was time for Enrique to come on. He was amazing! He perfomed for an hour and half. He sang quite a lot of songs which included. Baliando, Heartbeat, a cover of Stand by Me, I Like It, Be With You and my all time favourite, Hero. Which had to be the best part of the Night.

 
Now onto my birthday! Which was Sunday 30th and i turned 20 years old. I recieved money from my family and i also got some gifts from work which included hair stuff and nail art items. I also went out for a meal with my parents to TGI Fridays to celebrate where they gave me a big piece of chocolate cake to take home with me, which made me very happy!

One of the things i love about christmas is definitley watching Christmas films and getting in the chrismassy mood.


Even though you would have probably seen them dozens of time you still find yourself watching the same ones over and over again each year.


Now put on your christmas pyjamas (please tell me im not the only one who goes out and buys special christmas pyjamas/nightwear?) get comfy on the sofa and pop a film on.

Here are some of my favourite Christmas films:
Elf

"The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear.”  Now come on, who doesn't love Elf? This has got to be my all time favourite christmas film. I will never get tired of watching this. From the beginning to the end it is such a funny film and gets you into the christmas spirit.

Deck the Halls

I love this film about 2 neighbours who compete agaisnt each other to make their house the brightest during the christmas period. It gets me in the mood to decorate the house all festive.




The Santa Clause + 2 + 3


Now The Santa Clause, Santa Clause 2 and Santa Clause 3 has to be up there within my all time favourite Christmas films joining Elf. I have watched this literally every year since being a kid.

Christmas with the Kranks

And finally another christmas classic about a husband and wife wanting to skip Christmas but their daughter is returning home to spend Christmas with them.
All of these Christmas films are definitely ones to watch. With many hilarious moments that are guaranteed to have you and your family laughing.


What are your favourite Christmas films?

Hello everyone!

 
Last night I went to go see Dirty Dancing at the Leeds Grand Theatre with my mum and auntie. We had these tickets booked since last year and it was part of my birthday present as my birthday is on Sunday! Time has flown by since we purchased them but last night was the night. I had been looking forward to seeing this on stage for ages and i was so excited as also we were sat on the front row of the stalls and i have never sat in them seats before.

 
This was my view from the front row on the stalls i was sat in seat 10 which was more or less centre of the stage so i had a pretty good view! The only down side was that we were slightly looking up to the stage but it didn't bother me that much, it was such a change being on the front row as usually we get seats within the upper circle so it was really good to actually see the characters faces and see how much effort/emotion they put into their performance.

Now Dirty Dancing is one of my all time favourite films that i could watch over and over again and watching it on stage i was pretty much saying the lines word for word as you all know the classic quotes such as:

"Nobody puts baby in the corner"

"I carried a watermelon"

"Look, spaghetti arms. This is my dance space. This is your dance space. I don't go into yours, you don't go into mine. You gotta hold the frame"

“Me? I’m scared of everything. I’m scared of what I saw, I’m scared of what I did, of who I am, and most of all I’m scared of walking out of this room and never feeling the rest of my whole life the way I feel when I’m with you.”

The show also featured the well known songs:

- Hey Baby!
- Be my Baby
- She's Like the Wind
- Hungry Eyes
and the one and only I've Had The Time of My Life.

Outfit of The Night

 
Black Fur Gilet - Select  Grey Jumper - Primark  Black Skinny Jeans - Primark  Grey Boots - Primark

I also tried out a new way of curling my hair without heat. To do this all i did was section my hair into two halves. Then getting a little section at a time i curled the hair around my finger and secured the section of hair with a pin curl clip. I then did the same for the rest of my hair. Once all of the pins was in i sprayed them all with hairspray. I left the pins in for most of the day and then when it was time to take them out i removed the pins and then again secured the curls with hairspray.

Here are the results:
