''We Are Surrounded By All Of These Lies, And People Who Talk Too Much...''

Hey Everyone!

*Lyrics: Ed Sheeran ~ Tenerife Sea

Sorry that this blog post is a little late, I spent yesterday afternoon chilling with Grace of Dainty Sprinkles and also watching a GAA match which featured the Wexford (Yes I am a yellow belly!)

Grace and I met up in the afternoon and got the best creamy coolers in Costa (whilst half heartedly writing down video idea's in my blogging notebook) however we mainly spent the afternoon just chatting and catching up (mainly because I live like a hermit on the internet)

We went up ''The Pitch'' near my house. It's basically a green area with a goal post but isn't big enough to have two goals. However there was lots of pretty daisies and flowers so we took photos of them! We also took some outfit photos which made us feel extremely self-conscious as I have neighbours *shudders* Those photos will appear on Grace's blog soon.

Unfortunately we didn't have enough time to make any YouTube video's however we will be filming an AwkwardSprinkle's video or two very soon so keep your eyes peeled!

When Grace left, I started watching the hurling match on tv between Wexford and Clare. The previous week it led to a draw so this was a replay. Again, the match went into extra-time. Wexford isn't well known for being brilliant at GAA sports (except maybe camogie, the team won a few All-Ireland's a few years back) However the last time Wexford won an All-Ireland in hurling was in 1996. (I wasn't even born at the time! I was born like 3 weeks later)

So the match was vitally important and led to a lot of screaming and shouting and joy in my house and I'm sure a lot of other houses around the county. Well done to the lads, they were absolutely surreal and won in the end which was brilliant! I was tweeting frantically during the match so my Twitter is just a mess at the moment.

So that was about it for my week! I'm working in my summer job which is going well so I tend to do very little in the afternoons except maybe watch another series on Netflix, listen to music, read books, go on Tumblr or go on a Costa run (It's dangerous having Costa down the road I swear)

I'm also taking part in CollabSunflower!  Last week's theme was 'Questions' and you can read how we all interpreted the title, it's quite interesting! So check out the blog and give it a follow! :)


Photo's from my week!

I Had A Dream So Big And Loud, I Jumped So High I Touched The Clouds..

Hey Everyone!

I'm home nearly a week and realised I've been very quiet in the blogging world so I've made a resolution with myself to try post more often this Summer, as I'll be really busy with school work and the Leaving Cert from September (boo!) For the time being however, I'm making an effort to post with good content as regularly as possible.

I guess this blog post could be considered a ''My Week In Photos'' as it's quite photo heavy.  Here goes!


When I came back from the Gaeltacht, my parents surprised me with a new pair of Converse! I thought it was an interesting colour, green, as I was just back from the Gaeltacht. They're really comfortable and stand out when I wear them with my black jeans. 

This is my ''Fainne''' which is the Irish for 'ring' I got this ring in the Gaeltacht and when you wear it, people know they have the option of speaking to you in Irish too. I'm going to start wearing it out and about and see if anyone starts speaking to me in Irish!


A random selfie on my day off. I didn't straighten my hair, this was the result.

The John Green book shrine. My room is still a mess so there's lots of random things on the shrine (and TFIOS & LFA are missing as well as I'm reading LFA and a friend has TFIOS)


I went to see Mrs. Brown's Boys with my family and it was hilarious. One of the actors in the film was even in the same screening (he left at the VERY very end to avoid everyone, comical)

I got this cute tin in the shopping centre. I loved the red and white stripes and the retro feel of the tin. 

I'm re-reading Looking For Alaska. I actually finished it today and still got a little emotional even though I've read it before. 


That's about it from me, I'll hopefully be doing some fun and interesting things in the next couple of weeks. Might even film a YouTube video or two if I get the time!
Stay Strong, Happy and Fearless!
Aveen xx
