COUNTY TIME!

YES THE TITLE SAYS IT ALL! Finally I have a County Time. Oh no I'm not bluffing. I HAVE A COUNTY TIME! Words cannot describe the happiness I felt when I found out. I have made it, after years of trying I have done it. It just proves that if you work hard enough you will achieve your goal. This is just one goal of the goals that I need to achieve my dream. The event I got it in was 50m Frontcrawl, which isn't one of better strokes, so I was surprised! The time I needed was 31.9 and I got 31.91, but they round it down so I got it! But my next task is to get the time down so that when I go to the Essex Championships, I won't be in the slowest heat. I played a netball match yesterday and unfortunately fell over on my ankle, it hurts but I think I have only twisted it. Sadly it means I will have to take a break from sport for a few weeks until its better. I didn't swim much last week either as I was ill. On Monday we did cross country, we did it with my tutor and another tutor. We all had to do 3 laps of the field, including jumping the ditch 3 times and it was quite muddy(exactly what I love about cross country!). I came second overall and first out of the girls. I am really happy with this result, it was really hard race, and afterwards I got a migraine. It was really weird, I couldn't see out of my right eye! And since then I haven't feeling well, weird I know. So there we go I am a county swimmer...YESSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GET IN!

Liebster Award :D

Hello! Guess who's back, back again! I realize the last time I blogged was quite a while ago, which I am feeling guilty about but I am going to post a second post after this one for a little catch up as this one is dedicated to the Liebster Award! For those of you who are wondering what the hell is she on about? I will explain. 
Basically whilst catching up on the posts I hadn't read on my best friend Evie's blog (www.regardingevie.blogspot.co.uk go check out her blog NOW OK? ) one of her latest posts was about a Liebster award so, like some of you might be now, I was like err...the what award? And what it is, is an award for people with below 200 followers and somebody has to nominate you and give you 10 questions to answer. Then you have to nominate 10 other people, like you with below 200 followers and give them 10 questions to answer. Then I reached the end of the post and saw who she had nominated and to my surprise saw I was on there! Thanks Evie! So here we go...

1.Who is your favourite artist/band?
Hmm this is tricky as there are generally a lot of artists I like but I am really loving John Newman at the moment and his work with Rudimental. I also really love Imagine Dragons, OMG Radioactive is my JAM!

2. What was/is your favourite subject at school?
Well in case you hadn't noticed I am really sporty, so I have to say PE! I love everything about it, the muddy cross country, the tactile netball and aggressive basketball!

3. What is your favourite film?
My favourite film hmm... I generally don't have one. I loved the Hunger Games, but then I loved The Notebook and also The Descendants. I also loved Les Miserable. Its so hard to choose! But if I had to, it would probably be the Hunger Games.

4. Do you prefer hair up or hair down?
This is hard as I am really for the messy bun look, which is how I often wear my hair to school, but if I had time in the morning to tame of the wild beast that is my hair I would wear it down as I like it straightened and I have started to become fond of my natural curls.

5. The book or the film?
I CANNOT read a book after watching a film! I love films but books for me are a lot more detailed and I like picturing everything in my head whilst reading, its like I have entered another world! And often films can prove a disappointment as the characters aren't what you pictured them to look like in your head.

6. Three words to describe your style?
My style would probably be described as modern, pretty and rock. Modern because I like to keep up-to-date with the fashion, pretty because I love floral prints such as Cath Kidston,  which I believe my mother and  my Aunty Catherine have had a bit of influence on! And as for rock, I love my black docs and like to wear black eyeliner. I also love tattoos, if I could would DEFFO have tattoos done. Again another style influence would be my dad, he introduced me to ACDC, Guns and Roses and other rockbands and he also has loads of tatts. He used to be subscribed to Tattoo magazine and I would often read them. I have to check with my mum with everything that I wear, just because I see her as one of my main style icons, I always ask her for fashion advice!

7. Favorite animal?
I share my love of wolves with my mother. We both find them so fascinating! They are such beautiful, elegant creatures, I love everything about them!

8. Something that you love doing?
SWIMMING!!!!!!! I love swimming, it is the inspiration of my blog, I have swam for almost 7 years now and it is my passion, my escape and I absolutely love doing it, even if people think I'm crazy for swimming as much as I do, whilst doing other sports.

9. Somewhere you've always wanted to go?
Rome. I have always wanted to go to Rome. As a catholic it would be an amazing experience, but I just love the culture, the beauty and the history of Italy.

10. Favorite sweet treat?
I generally love anything sweet, I have inherited my mother's sweet tooth! But I do really really adore fudge. Now that is my heaven. I would live on fudge if i could. It is the sweetest thing in the world.

So there you go! I have waffled my way through my 10 questions and now it is somebody else's turn!I basically have to nominate 10 people, or as many people as I can so the nominees are...drumroll please...
