Dear Sarah, The One Where It Ends

This is probably going to be the last Dear Sarah till next summer since on Monday we go back to uni and resume our normal life of not getting work done, watching movies, baking cakes and laughing our heads off!

This summer has been pretty amazing though hasn't it. We went on our first group (well.... trio) holiday and got to soak up some summer sun and relax by a pool for a week!

We went shopping and brought some lush things in Lush and just generally had a great time. Although the one thing we never did this summer was me and Tom go to Leicester and meet your Fam-a-Lam :D

So since this Dear Sarah/Helen escapade has come to an end for now, there will be plenty more adventures for us to both blog about... the Disney revision sessions, trips to Milton Keynes when we finally go to the bit with the Frog Clock (its a thing... i'm not making it up!!), the Christmas themed birthday parties complete with fake snow and snowmen, the Christmas Jumper shopping trip, and of course the days stuck at uni with me hyper on Coffee!

So for now, toodledo. And enjoy the peace of your house before you come back to the student house... because your not likely to get any peace and quiet there!!

And as per the tradition. Here is some videos you might enjoy :D

My Favourite Fictional Characters

Over the years I have read a lot of books and probably watched even more films and TV Shows. Therefore I have developed a long list of favourite Fictional Characters so I've decided to share some of them with you and why I love them so much.

BENEDICT!!!
  • Sherlock Holmes, The Benedict Cumberbatch version... because.... *sighs* Benedict........ 
  • Hercule Poirot, There is something intriguing about the little egg shaped headed Belgian who solves crimes, has OCD and has a rather magnificent moustache. 
  • Miss Marple, She would be that Granny that everyone loves and would also always have Tea and Cake ready. (Can you tell I like Agatha Christie??)
  • Bridget Jones, She is just amazing
  • Loki, He is just phowar!!!!!!
  • Olaf from Frozen, because he doesn't have a skull.... or bones
  • The Doctor, He can time travel and has a tardis... what not to love. 
  • Barney Stinston, because he's Legend... wait for it and I hope your not lactose intolerant because the second word is dairy!
  • Joey Tribbani, He is just awesome!!
  • All of the History Boys, just because!
  • Cadfael, He's a crime solving medieval monk!!
  • Captain Jack Sparrow, He's a Pirate!! and hilariously funny!
There are a lot more which I just can't think of right now, So till next time..... Goodbyeeeeeee

Dear Sarah, The One When The Summer Holiday Is Nearly Over (AKA, The One With The Long Title!)

As the title suggests our summer holiday is nearly over so we won't have to blog to each other  because we'll see each other instead! What are we going to do??

I can't believe you didn't realise why it was called the Elephant Love Medley... Silly Sarah!!! We need to watch that! I like Ewan! and we can sing-a-long to the Elephant Love Medley and annoy Tom!!

I have finished work for this year now, so you can expect me to text you more and reply quicker to texts now.. and more snapchats because undoubtly I will get bored!!

By the way... I LOVED your Disney post, Disney is just awesome! I am slightly disappointed that Tarzan isn't on your list.... tut tut tut Mummy Sarah you've let me down!!! I will have to show you how awesome it is so it is bumped up into your top ten!

We need to think of some really funny ways of annoying Tom when you get back!! We will make this year EPIC!! oooh and guess what... Bad Education is back on tv soon so more CLASS WARS!!!

Anyway I will leave it there for now. Enjoy the rest of your time at home because soon you'll be coming back to the Mad House!!

Ta'Rah!!!

I Can't Wait To Go Back To Uni....

Ok, my secrets out... I want my Summer Holiday to be over with so I can go back to Uni and get in a proper routine again of 6 o'clock starts to catch the bus to get to Uni by 9 for lectures, Spending money on Coffees and dossing around in the Student Union with Sarah while Tom is working and annoying him!

And since its my third year (which is just crazy..) I really need to get a grasp on reality and do work before its due (says the one writing a blog when theoretically she could be doing some of her Dissertation..)  and make sure its all planned and sorted and spend more time doing work at uni rather than watching tv and films at home.

There are also some things I don't want to do this year, such as:

  • Not being late to a lecture in the First Week (For the past 2 years I've been late for a Lecture in the first week, in first year I was late for my first ever lecture... whoops!)
  • Finish work late at night 
  • Start Assignments a few days before they are due.

So this is my aim for this year.... GRADUATE!!

Dear Sarah, The One Where I'm Listening to Disney.

Dear Sarah,

Only some of my Snapchats are amusing?? I'm disappointed I thought my fake moustache was a masterpiece and who can resist cute Pierre?? (Everyone else who reads this is going to be very confused!) I'll have to up my game then!!

Doctor Who was AMAZING!! I know Peter Capaldi has only done one episode but he is looking pretty good so far so I reckon I'll quite enjoy his time in the Tardis. I liked all the references to other Doctors and Episodes, especially when he recognised his face (linking the fact that he was in the Fires of Pompeii episode) and that poor dinosaur but hey i'll just have to Let It Go... (get it??)



We seriously need to have a Disney day like really soon otherwise I might go mad!! I've made a Spotify Playlist of some Disney songs and its really making me want to watch the movies! (At the Moment its Once upon a Dream from Sleeping Beauty and now i'm rereading it its Bella Notte From Lady and The Tramp) Is it me or is the soundtrack to Tarzan awesome?? That film is on Netflix so we can watch that on our disney day, and I can bring my Disney DVDs!! Only 1 Month till we go back to Uni!!!! Eek. 


I'VE GOT A DREAM, I'VE GOT A DREAM!!!

Basically I wanted to say I really want to watch Disney again and Doctor Who was awesome!! So as per I will leave you with some funny videos which I think you'll like... enjoy!!!


Aren't they cute!!

I Need To Read More Books...

I'm a self confessed book worm. I love reading, always have, always will but recently the amount of books I have read has dwindled and not through lack of books (I have plenty that I haven't read yet) but lack of time. After uni breaks up for the summer holidays I always run out of time to read after spending the day at work or just spending time with friends. It doesn't help either that sometimes when I have the time to and want to read a book on my Kindle I go to turn it on to find it has ran out of battery (mainly because I forget to charge it up!!)

However, come the end of September I should have more time to read books. I will make it another of my mid year resolutions (like the one to wear more clothes... Click Me!!) and theoretically it shouldn't be hard to keep since I will travelling to uni on the buses again which will give me more time to read (as long as I don't get travel sick!!)

So hopefully this time next year I will have cleared most of my back log of unread books ready to buy some more!
I have a very varied taste! Can't beat a good ol' Agatha Christie though!

I am also one of those people who likes to read the book before watching the film so hopefully I will have finished reading The Fault In Our Stars before the film comes out of DVD so I can judge whether it will make me cry or not!!

Anyway thats enough from me at the moment!! Will do another post in the week with my reply to the latest Dear Helen Check it out!! and maybe another one with my favourite books what do you reckon??

Ta'Rah!!
