Summer Daily Journal Update

Hello!

It's coming towards the end of term for us here at school in the UK, I for one break up from school tomorrow at half past twelve! It's been a long term, I've had exams and whatnot, so it will be nice to finally let my hair down and chill! Hopefully I will be doing all sorts of exciting and fun things this summer, like going out with friends, shopping, parties and of course lots of make up, crafts and cooking. I think that it would be good if I used this opportunity to do as much blogging as possible, so I have come up with the idea of doing a sort of diary/ journal thing, but on this blog. 

I can tell you guys what I have been up to that day and share anything exciting or new that has been going on in my life. I think this will be a great reason to add more content to my blog, and hopefully it will interest you all slightly. Do tell me what you think about this in the comments below, because I love to hear from you!

Another thing that I've wanted to say is that I am almost done decorating my bedroom! Yay! After many weeks of hard work I am almost ready to film a full room and closet tour, which I will post on YouTube for you to look at! There are a few more finishing touches to add, and hopefully it should be done by sometime next week or the week after! Fingers crossed!

So, that's the update on my blog so far! I hope you can stick with me this summer, I appreciate it so much! Keep on reading!

Lots of Love

Summer Q&A

Hi guys
Today I thought that I would compile all the questions I've been asked over the past few weeks, maybe even months, that I've started this blog, to help you get to know ne a bit better! There are about ten of my favourites, so keys get into it!
What is your name?
Ok so obviously I'm not going to tell you my full name on the internet,  but my first name is Eva.
How old are you?
I am 14 years and ten months old.
Any brothers or sisters?
I have brothers and sisters! I come from a gigantic family, so shoutout to anyone who also comes from one! In total, there are seven of us, 3 boys and 4 girls including as set of twins. I am the oldest, and the ave ranges from 14 to 1 and a half. Many people ask me how I can cope living in such a big family, but to be honest, I actually love it. There is always someone to talk to, and even when you do want to be alone, we are lucky.enough to have a house big enough to give us our own spaces. But yeah,  being in a big family rocks!
Do you have any pets?
No, sadly I don't have any pets. I'd love a little dog though.
What's your favourite song?
Oh no! I hate favourite questions! I have many favourite songs, so go and listen to them. Ride Wit Me by Nelly, Feel The Love Rudimental, any Bob Marley song, I also like UB40 and Lana Del Rey. Oh and for some top 40 ones, I love 5SOS and Waves by Mr Probs.
What's your favourite book?
Again, I have 3 absolutely favourite series: Harry Potter, Hunger Games and Divergent. Just read them,enough said before I go into major fangirl mode.
Favourite colour?
Orange!
Celebrity crush?
Damn, I have so many. Liam Hemsworth is my future husband but then again so is his brother Chris, but I like Leonardo Di Caprio, Ryan Gosling, Channing Tatum,.Orlando Bloom, Pharell and I fancy the pants off of Theo James!
Favourite beauty product?
Mine is quite a controversial,non cosmetic item. It's Sudocrem. I use it as a spot cream and it works like magic. For me,  a clear complexion is more important than mascara and whatnot, so I probably couldn't live without ny Sudocrem.
Reason for blogging?
I started this blog as an outlet for my creativity and my passions. I didn't really think anyone would read it, so whenever I add a new post and see the stats I get blown away by the support I recieve. It seems so unreal that I have only owned LML for less than 2 months, but I've already made so many friends! I know it sounds cheesy, but I truly do think about every person who reads this blog, and I am very grateful for your support and patience. These past few weeks have been so surreal and I am loving every second of it. Blogging is the best and super fun, and I would encourage you all to get going, because you won't regret it!
Ok, so those are all the questions, comment below if you have any more questions or email me. My address in on the Contact Me Page!
Lots of Love
Eva

My Top 10 Revision Tips

Hey guys,

So this isn't really a post related to beauty or fashion etc. but as you probably know, I have exams next week and I'm sure a lot of you have had exams or are having them soon.  

So first off, I'd like to apologise for the lack of posts lately. This is because of my busy life at the moment, but I promise everything should be back to normal after next week. 

I decided to share with you my top ten exam revision tips, as I find these types of posts really helpful and hopefully you will find this one just as useful. 

#1. Timing

Timing is really really important. It's far easier to start earlier on and do your work little and often than to wait till the last week and try and cram 10 hours a day. Trust me, I've had experience. 

Break your day up into sections and don't try to do too much at once. You won't remember anything. Thanks why starting earlier gives you so much more time. 

#2 Timetable

Make a timetable to plan ahead. Personally, I like to make a timetable to give me the basic structure of my revision, because I know if I do a really detailed one, I won't stick to it. 

But if you are disciplined, do try to timetable your revision. Chances are if you dont, you will probably forget a subject you have to revise for. 

I remember last year, I completely forgot I had a music exam and didn't revise at all.  As you can probably guess, I didn't do too well!

#3 Notes

You may agree or disagree with me here, but I think that pretty notes are the key to exam success. 

I take pride in using brightly coloured pens and highlighters and make sure to place each lovingly written sheet in a clear plastic wallet to protect it. 

Maybe you don't need to be as obsessive as me, but if you care about your work you are bound to learn more and score well. 

#4 Stationary

Make sure that you have absolutely everything you need to study. I like to have the following:

- Pens (black biros only because I'm fussy)

- Highlighters in yellow and orange

- Lined paper

- Squared paper

- Plain paper

- A folder ( this year I'm using one for science and maths, one for humanities and one for languages)

- Clear plastic wallets

- Felt tip pens

- Ruler

- Pencil and pencil sharpener 

- Glue

#5 Workspace

I can't work unless my desk is perfect. The perfect height, the perfect chair, the perfect amount of space. It just has to be perfect. I don't know why, but I just get really annoyed if something is out of place on my desk. 

I don't really tend to use a pencil case when I'm revising, mostly because I like to be able to reach for things, without having to faff around unzipping things. I like to put my equipment in little baskets because that way everything is in front of me. 

Anyway, number five was make sure you are happy with your workspace. 

#6 Methods

I know that everyone likes to learn differently, but you won't know how you learn unless you try different strategies. Make flash cards, write out you notes, do online quizzes or simply read through your exercise books. And you don't need to just stick at one different method, the possibilities are endless. 

Personally, I write out my notes, do exercise sheets and make flash cards for vocabulary, but I know people who solely revise from flash cards. Revise in your own way!

#7 Music

Now, I don't tend to listen to music whilst studying as I find it distracts me. I just end up singing or humming along! Once I did test it out for a little topic test, and whilst I was supposed to be writing out Fundamental Ideas in Chemistry notes, I ended up absent mindedly singing the lyrics to Wrecking Ball!

However I have friends who like to listen to some gentle music whilst revising and a tip from them would be: listen to soft quiet and relaxing music, preferably at a low volume. So no One Direction mind you! 

#8 Distractions

Everyone gets distracted by something whilst revising. That's why I think it's very important to put away your phone, laptop and iPad so you can really focus. 

Schedule breaks into your timetable so that you can check your Twitter, have a drink and maybe even catch up with this blog! 

#9 Workload

Don't try to bite off more than you can chew. Everyone has their limits so there is not point in sitting in the same place for seven hours when the information is going in one ear and coming out the other. 

If you are getting tired- have a break! And come back when you are more refreshed. Overworking yourself just leads to disaster!

#10 Eat and Live right

I know everyone says this, but there truly is nothing better than feeling refreshed and ready on the morning of an exam. Eat healthily, go to bed early and your results will definitely reflect that. Good luck!

I hope you enjoyed this post, sorry about the rambling and the length!

Good luck of you also have exams, and come again soon!

Lots of Love 

Eva
