Teddy Rocks!

Hi guys!
So today I decided I'd blog. What about? Teddy Rocks 2016!

Over the may bank holiday, I have been at Teddy Rocks. Teddy Rocks is a charity festival in aid of Ted Newton. It is all about beating childrens cancer with rock. Ted Newton is a cancer victim who died in 2010 at the age of eleven. Since then, his family set up a charity called Teddy 20 and began Teddy Rocks in 2012.

This year it has really grown, what with taking place on the flood grounds of my town and The Hoosiers playing on Friday 29th April. The Hoosiers are a famous band who wrote the song 'Goodbye Mr A'.

Along with many other bands, Teddy Rocks was a really great experience.

Friday: Teddy Rocks began and I saw The Hoosiers. I was even at the barriers for 2/3 of it. Then, like you do, I needed the loo so my dad took me and we were at the back. Nevertheless, For the last few songs (including Goodbye Mr A) I was propped on my dad's shoulders boogie-ing away. (sorry for the back ache the next day, dad)

Saturday: saw a few local bands, nothing special. Don Broco performed that night but I didn't go down to see it.

Sunday: I went down in the evening and saw loads of reggae and ska bands which were very good. That night saw Gentlemens Dub who also were a reggae band.

Monday: went down at one o'clock and rocked out till five. Saw some bands and took a good interest to the acoustic stage.


So. That was my jam-packed weekend at Teddy Rocks! I will leave the headliners twitters and Teddy Rocks' website.

Tell me what you think in the comments below.

Love,
Scarlett xx

PS: SATs start on monday! Nervous!




BTW: Teddy Rocks almost raised £43,000 this year! WOOOOO!

Revision Tips!

Dear reader,
So, as you may or may not know I am sitting my year six SATs in May so I thought I'd do a little revision guide to lead me through the next three weeks until SATs (scary I know).

- SATs are a group of exams year sixes take. The new curriculum means that year sixes have to learn a LOT more than past year sixes and it is harder than its ever been.

• Revise! I know it's very very obvious but I personally think that revising actually DOES secures you with a better grade. Even if its just a little brain-teaser every evening, it will pay off for your SATs. You should pass your exams with flying colours help to a little revision.
• Keep hydrated. I find that I can't do exams if I'm crawling for a cup of water. Make sure you've had plenty to drink and eat before the big day.
• Even if you don't get a very good score I always think back to what I got last time. Don't worry how many you got incorrect, just see if you've improved in places. That's what I do, at least.
• Strive for success. Always challenge yourself to harder sums to ensure you know how to do them.
• Ask for help. I always find it REALLY hard to merely raise your hand for it to be read to you by a teacher or assistant. Of course, they won't tell you the answer, but just them reading the question to you might make you understand it more.

That's all for now so I really hope this helped some of you in some peculiar way!

Bye,

How to Have an Amazing Sleepover | Guide

Dear Reader,
Hi again today I am going to be blogging about how to have a fabulous sleepover.

Step 1) Sweets!
Have plenty of sweets in store and get hyper!

Step 2) Makeovers!
It's always great to do a funny old makeover, blindfolded or not. This really gets the sleepover spirit going.

Step 3) Pillow fights!
Always a great party starter by throwing pillows at each other. Be sure to be careful whilst doing so as I almost broke my neck!

Step 4) Music!
I feel this plays a huge part in a sleepover. Slap on some music and get partying!

Step 5) Food!
I think that a sleepover would be rubbish without food. Whether it's some snacks or a full-on dinner, it should always be fun.

Step 6) Movies!
When the sun is setting and you're finally calming down, a movie is just what you and your friends need. Some down time, get cosy with some cute candles and a good movie and mabye even fall asleep!

Step 7) Get some sleep!
Even if you go to bed in the early hours, getting some sleep is still very important. After all, you don't want to be tired and grumpy the next day!

Step 8) Have Fun!
The most important point - have fun!


Hope you enjoyed this blog and, if you did, let me know in the comments below!
Till Then,

Small Collective Haul

Dear Reader,
So finally I'm back her, blogging. Today I'm blogging about some items I bought today when I went shopping. All of these things come from either Asda or Primark.

1. The first thing I bought was from Asda. It is a Colgate Plax soft mint mouthwash as I've run out of my current one. It is a different brand as opposed to my other one so I'm excited to start using this.
2. The second item is from Primark. It is a six pack of earrings. The first pair are just some gold spheres, nothing fancy. There are two of that style in the pack. The next pair is the emoji of the monkey with it's hand on its mouth. The one after that is the emoji with the sunglasses on. The other one is the crying/laughing emoji and the last pair are the emoji where it's kind of kissing one side. They look so cool and I'm already wearing a pair.
3. The next thing I bought was also from Primark and it is a black choker (£1.50) with some little coloured balls in between the patterns.
4. I also got a true top from Primark. It is pale pink and has a two-sided sequin embroidery on it. the first side says "FASHION" whereas the second side says "BLOGGER"! THis is so true and I can't wait to wear it.
5. Next, I bought a plain white cropped top from Primark. It is quite short but I think it'll look good with some shorts come summer.
6. In addition, I got a black lacy kimono from Primark. My sister has the whie version but I preferred the black.
7. After that I got another lacy cropped top which is black and has holes in it. This I think will also look fab with some denim shorts or jeans.

So there, I think that's everything.

If you liked this then please comment down below to say you did and mabye even comment what your favourite item is.

Until then, bye,

Scarlett xx

It's Half Term

Dear Reader,
I shall now announce that it is half term! I'm so happy to be out of school for nine days and it's my birthday next Sunday!
I'll tell you what I'm doing over the half term.

So. On the 13th (today) I'm going shopping. Then on Tuesday my sister is having a friend round for a sleepover. Then, on Friday 19th I'm having my birthday party. We're going swimming at the local swimming pool and then they're coming back to my house for pizza.

The day after that I'm going to a Italian restaurant with my parents, my dad's best friend, ny dad's best friends wife and their sons Luke and Ben.

The day after that it's my birthday!!

I'm so excited to see what I get for my birthday and I'll definitely post about what I got and might even do a YouTube video.

Personally, I think a have a good half term planned out and what would make it better is some occasional trips downtown with my friends. They're great fun.

That's all for now,
Sassy Scarlett xx 💕

Thankyou Again!

Dear Diary,
Who'd have thought that I'd be posting another thankyou post again in such a short amount of time.
This one, however, is for reaching 200 views. I'd never thought I'd get this far on my blog and I can't thank you guys enough for doing this. You're the best!
I'd like to put a special thankyou in this post and that is to Rosema. She is such a amazing friend and she always reads my blogs and I couldn't wish for a better friend.
There you go,
Scarlett xx
