Christmas Eve


I may as well start of this post by saying Merry Christmas everybody! I have failed to do any Christmas posts and this makes me sad because Christmas is the best time of year and I didn't take advantage of it. Anyway, I'm here to write about all the great festive things one can do, well what I usually do on Christmas Eve. Christmas Eve is like the most relaxed day of the year for me and I really enjoy taking time to chill and have no stress.



On Christmas Eve I normally watch Christmas films with my family and have dinner somewhere with them. I'd curl up on the sofa with a fluffy blanket and some chocolate of some description, I'm such a bad person for sitting through films unless it's in the cinema, I'm a TV show type of gal, so it's nice to do for a change. My Christmas film favourites are Elf, the Santa Clause and Muppets Christmas Carol, all classics. 



Having a bath on Christmas Eve has kind of become a tradition too so this year I've used Lush's Snow Fairy shower gel as a bubble bath and dropped a few Brilliant Bath Fizzers by Joules in too. I'd read a book and relax for the rest of the night after that after putting on fresh new Christmas pajamas. Nothing like a cozy night in to put you in the Christmas spirit.


I love Christmas Eve because you know Christmas is so soon and you can feel the excitement in the air, most of the time, if you're not last minute shopping. I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and enjoy your time with friends and/or loved ones. Happy holidays!

I'd love to hear your festive traditions and stories! 

Someday Summary 13.12.15

Today was one of those cute days where everything just seemed chill and like I had all the time in the world to enjoy every moment in the day, for once. No stress, since I have all my assignments done now I just wait until the Christmas holidays begin in full, before exams in January. 


      

  • Today was a cute date day, where we went to the Christmas markets around, safe to say there was nothing there. I got mainly the rest of my Christmas shopping done too, I'm pretty organised, most of the time.
  • We got Eddie Rockets for dinner and it's like the best diner out there. It's so delicious and I want another one while I am writing this. 
  • We finished off the day by going to the cinema to see Disney's The Good Dinosaur. Obviously being a Disney film I wanted to go to see it the minute I saw the ad and it didn't disappoint. It's a classic Disney feel good family film. It's about family and friendships and it's the cutest thing I've seen in a while. I was in tears at a few points. I also has some parts that are my type of humour so I did find the film funny, maybe others won't. I don't think the film is getting enough recognition at all, I haven't seen any posts about it and I feel like it's going to become one of the lesser known Disney films. Definitely go see it if you get a chance.
  • I cut my hair yesterday and it feels so good to have short hair now, I feel more myself and new. I don't know how hair can make you feel things but it can.
  • I'm getting really really excited for Christmas now and can't wait for all the festivities soon, definitely the best time of the year. Hopefully I do more Christmas-y posts before the festive season is out, seeing as I'll hopefully have a lot of free time.
How was everyone else's weekend?
