Hello everyone, i am back and guess what... i have a new phone now so i can take lots of pics and make my blog a bit more interesting. Today i have a sticker haul/review for you. Its from a UK Etsy shop called Juicy planner.
All of her stickers are on point, such good quality and it is my fave shop out of all the others i have bought from. The images are very modern and not dated at all. Out of all the them my fave one is the date night one... its just the cutest thing i have ever seen.
And the other ones that i really like also is the birthday hedgehog which i forgot to include in the group photo.
All the kiss cutting is done really well and i havent had a problem peeling with them yet. I will include the rest of the close up of the stickers but there was no problem with the delivery and all the stickers that i get are under £2.
When i have some more money i will defo be ordering some more. Let me know in the comments which one you like and i will be back soon with another haul.
Thanks a bunch

So i have discovered the world of planning with stickers and i am truly addicted! Washi tape is AMAZING too! But my problem at the moment is that my planner is tiny and i cant be as creative as i want to in it cause there is so little splace. I think it is A6 size! I know tiny right!? I have plenty of things to show you but i havent got a phone so cant take pics till i have the phone! :) Which i should have ordered by now by the time this is posted.
I will be showing off my planner every month on here and weekly on my instagram. I have also got into lettering to make my handwriting better. Might have to show you some of that soon. AGAIN just have to wait for my phone to come then i can be really active on here! I have a bigger planner for next year and it is beautiful size A5.
Stickers are sooo cute. You can get unique one off of etsy for £2 or less and the P&P is £1! I love it so much. I get mine from sellers in the UK cause they come quicker, if you get them from the USA the P&P price goes up to £10 which i am not paying for. Thats one thing you have to look out for when buying stickers online. I have built up such a colection now its overload posessive! aha I also by stickers from shops to, Poundstrechers are cheep and cute, Asda and stationary shops. When i look for stickers i ask 3 questions in my head...
Are they cute stickers?
Are they Cheap for how much you get?
Will i actually use them in my planner?
If the answers are all yes then i go a head and buy them. (Obviously if i have the money of course!) But i really cant wait to present them to you all. They are too cute.
I get my washi tape from Hobby craft. There tape is £2 but some times they have sales for £1. I literally die in the shop if i see any for cheap. My mum has to calm me down and i start squeekin! hehe.
At the end of the day it just gives me something to do when i am at home instead of being on the computer all the time.
I also like to plan what my future holds and lists of things that i want to accomplish. I have a whole list of things that i want to do in the next week month or year. It just keeps me motivated to do my best cause you know im trying to make my days productive and fun for all to see.(And for me aswell) haha
Speak soon

So I have been away for a while and have been thinking now for a while that i should come back and start chatting again.
Alot has changed... I have a job and i have been there for about 4 month next week. There have been a lot of ups and downs for me but i am getting there. Its been the longest job that i have kept since being treated for depression so i am very proud of myself. I have managed to stable my emotions and all my thought are not making me want to expode, and sorry if this is TMI but i have my periods back too which is good. but also BAD! hahahhahaha
Since i have got my emotions and working back on track i have started to concentrate on being me and treating myself better. I have started the gym and next week will be 4 weeks of me going. I never thought i would ever be consistance at going to the gym but i am paying for it so i want to make the most of it... and i dont want my money to be wasted! haha. I have decided to do weightlifting because i think i am a strong women and i want to improve on it, maybe in the next couple of post i will tell you my gym routine. I will tell you that i am tryng to go every day that i am not working and do cardio and then every other day i will do cardio and weightlifting. Havent seen much change on my body but i know that will take time when you are building muscles, But i do know that i have lost 3lbs so that must count for something.
My next chalenge now is to sort my eating out so i can get better results. But it is a struggle because i dont have a bloody clue! I have to focus on making my potions smaller. But i dont know much after that! :D
So that has what been going on and i am hoping that my new found love of fitness will make me want to write more about it. And other weird stuff i am into at the moment... (PLANER STICKERS!)
At the moment i do have lots to say! haha Speak soon!

How was everyone's weekend? Mine wasn't the best, Iv done a lot of thinking, not good thinking bad thinking. Basically i had a discussion with someone close and they told me all the bad things that my sister had said to me and now i cant stop thinking about it and its made my mood even worse now.
Now i feel i cant talk to anyone and nobody understands me. So im pretty much stuck in a rut at the min with nobody to help me out.
On a plus side i got to see my god daughter and be with her all weekend! She is so cute and funny, and on Sunday night i was playing with her cat Tiger and safe to say he ripped my hand apart cause i let him play with my hair then as i was trying to get my hair out of his claws and he got a bit too playful! haha So i have about 10 cuts on my right hand and they really hurt at the moment but they will heal. :)
That s all for today, don't really have much else to say. speak soon,
Love you all and thanks for reading

Hey guys,
Today i have been to the hospital with my mum because she has a bad thumb and it has been that way for a while. So we signed in with the self service machine but they still didn't know we were there. Like what the heck is up with that. What is the point of having self service displayed if its not gonna be used, so we were sitting there for longer than planned. So we got there at 11:30AM and we actually got out at 2:00! That was a bit of a pain in the but.
Hey, How are you all today? Its is Thursday 20th of August and the time is 2:43pm. I got up to feed the chicken as i am i looking after it for a friend. They have some plum trees so i took some from the tree, they said i could by the way. The weather is gloomy with a bit of sun. Today i feel very tired and lonley, i cleaned out my guinea pig Clive and i have watch all the youtube videos and programs i could find.
But last night my brain flipped a switch and i am now laying around again feeling sad for myself, i have to go to the doctors soon cause i just cant control my mood on my own so people like me have to rely on pills but i have to wait for my mum to come back because last time i went on my own they didn't understand me and didn't help at all. I don't know if you know but i have PCOS and it basically plays hell on my period meaning i don't get them very often and because of fluctuating hormones my mood is up and down so if i get on the pill or something like that it could help me. There is also a chance i wont be able to have children which thinking about it kills me inside.
But the reason why i need to get that sorted now is because i have been offered a job at a shop when there is a position available. And i have only been able to work for two months then i have some sort of mental breakdown and quit my job because i don't think i can handle it. But i don't want to quit this one, so i have to do everything i can before it all happens again. The only time that i want to quit is when i make it my career on YouTube and blogging, then i will quit properly.
These are the things i keep telling myself for when i get a job
- I can buy outfits for OOTD
- I can buy the latest makeup and do reviews
- Movie reviews
- Buy a new camera
- Interesting daily vlogs
I have been doing YouTube for 2 and half year now on and off so i want to make something of it. I always imagine what it would be like to be your own boss and do when ever you want. maybe this year or next year will be better. X
Hey Everyone, How are you all today?
In England its quite a raining day. I wanted to do some laundry but the whether has gotten in the way of that so, we will just have to move on.
I'm going to try and start to be a better blogger from now on and i know i probably say that every post but i swear this one is different, I got a bit of inspiration from a YouTuber, will leave the link below...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ck_IH7ruLHg
And if you dont know already, i have a channel Called The Zobo Show. I know you are not meant to focus on the number of subscriber you have but it is pretty hard not too! And some how i managed to lose 3 and at the current time i had 158 subscriber so i am down to 155. It did make me feel a bit sad but there is nothing i could have done about it so i have to move on.
I made a new video yesterday and i was pretty happy with the outcome of the look, here are some of the pictures i took.
And sorry my eyebrow aint the best i just really hate sorting them out but i do need to do that really soon.
I want to get the video up for tomorrow or Tuesday.
Now i am off to see my best friend around the corner so see you all back here tomorrow! :D

Hey friends! How are you all doing?
Today i though i was gonna come to you with some good new like i am still a vegan and excersise is going well and stuff like that but guess what? My mood has got the better of me and i have failed at everything. Its properly not good to start a blog like this but its sooo normal to me now days and i feel horrible for it.
Things That Have Gone Wrong This Week>>>
- I am a terrible vegan and have found that if i cant get the food myself, i have to suffer and probs starve myself or have what my mum gives me. Maybe i should wait till i do have my own money so i can get myself the fruit i like to eat.
- I have opened a can of tin milk and thats not vegan either, but i have decided to have a can every couple of weeks instead of 4 cans a week.
- I haven't exercised very much proberly because i have been in a bad place of my mind at the moment. Its really stuipid and people dont understand that when i get in this mood (For no particular reason) its a struggle to do a lot of things. And this is why i think i have something wrong with me but people say that i am a lazy idiot!
- I havent had water in a day or two and i have lost now weight.!
This is getting me a lil bit angry now so i am gonna stop but please come back next week to see what has changed if anything. Xx
Helloo pretty people! How are you all today?
I feel like this is where my summer begins and im feeling really good about JUNE! I have already made some lifestyle changes and it has been a week or two.
CHANGES I HAVE MADE>>>
- I am drinking more water around 1.5L+ everyday and i have cut out my tea because because everyone keeps saying that its the problem that is making me "FAT" But at the moment i haven't seen any change. My friend lea says my skin is getting clearer but i don't see a difference yet.
- I have become a Half Vegan if that even counts, I pretty much eat raw till 4 at home but ever other day i go to my boyfriends house for the evening and he cooks and hes not a vegan so i have to have what he has basically, maaybe i will one day fine the guts but if we don't eat together, we pretty much wont be doing hardly anything together so im not quite ready for that change yet.
- Need to start exercising and going for walks/bike rides on my own but baby steps at the min.
- I have started growing my nails again, just to prove my boyfriend wrong!
Not very many but they are pretty important things. My friend Lea is back from UNI and its like i have my comfort blanket back, i missed her soo bad and i am happy she is round the corner from me again. She makes me feel really confident and positive. I love that girl she is the best est friend a girl can have and i am determined to make this summer a good one.
CHANGES I NEED TO MAKE>>>
- Make some money.
- Start stepping out of my comfort zone that i have been in for a year now.
- Start exercising like running, walking, basket-balling, biking.
- Keep up with the vlogging and posting just like i keep up with the Kardashians! haha
- Be a better girlfriend.
- Sort out the inside and the outside of my head.
I have to go wash my hair now so that is all i shall write today, hopefully i will be back with another post next Monday but until then, have a great week and be the best you can be!
Love you all lots!

Morning everyone, Let me know in the comments how you all are?. Today i want to talk about shaving for girl, I dont quite understand why girls have so much hair, some people in different countrys dont have any hair at all on the body only the hair of the head. Im not one of those lucky girls. Im the one with hair everywhere and i have to try and get rid of it without people notising that i look like a man. As i have gotten older things have got slightly worse for me but i will keep trying to cope with it.
I have tried laser removal and that hasn't worked, i have tried waxing and it just hurts, so the only reasonable option for me had been plucking and Shaving. Its a short term solution but that is what i shall have to cope with for the rest of my life.
November is the month to start taking control and to start living, i can talk the talk but i cant actually make myself do t and to me that is what you call disappointing your whole family, i have alot of things that i want to accomplish this month but as per usual im proberly gonna fail badly. I have a lot of things that i want to do but my brain stops me and nobody cant see that, it is the most powerful part in your body and it can be debilitating if it is controling you.
I dont know exactly how i am gonna get over this but i will. I now need money very badly, what are the lengths would you go through if you needed money bad.
I want to get a job at a clothes shop so i have to find the courage to go in and very desperately ask for a job and refuse the answer no. How do you do that? I would ofer to start straight away and do a few days voluntary so i get some experience under my pelt and do such a good job that they cant say no to me cause i would be there greatest asset! Then work as much as i can to get money for Christmas and get everyone pressies, but to be successful and do what i want to do, i have to work hard at my job for money then i would have to make videos in my spare time and blogs after work and make time for my boyfriend and friends. When you put it in a paragraph like this, it sounds like a big challenge, blogging and video making takes a lot of effort but you cant blog about nothing, you have to put money into doing something so you can post about it.
It would be fun if i was already getting money from this but i dont have that many viewers and that is cause i dont do it regular, but i keep trying and i will try and one day, i will have enough people to talk to instead of talkking to myself.
My weight has become an issue for me again and i need to stop eating food like i do, i now i have devised a plan so that everything i do i shall be righting down what i do and what i eat and what i feel. make put a weeks worth into a blog post if i keep it up! I wish i could go raw till 4 vegan cause i thing i would be able to do it, when i eventually get my own place that is what i shall do and they will be no temptation and if i go off the wagon it will be all my fault. My ideal weight for me is 140lbs/10 Stone. One day i shall get there and rove everyone wrong, watch this space. Xx
Good morning everyone, I hope you are all having a good day. Today i have for you a little look for the Autumn time and it reminds me of the colour of the leaves that fall to the ground at one point or another.
Here is the picture of the finished look and then i will tell you how i did it. make sure to stay tuned.
Things I Used...
EYES
Colour 1 :Matte Brown from Technic Palette.
Colour 2 :Gun Metal from Urban Decay Naked Palette.
Colour 3 :Half Backed from Naked Palette.
Colour 4 :Buck from Naked Palette.
Colour 5 :Virgin from Naked palette.
Eye Liner :Felt Tip Pen from Collection, Thick Eye Crayon from Barry M, Water Proof Gel Liner from Rimmel London in colour Black 001.
Mascara in the colour Black Brown from Natural collection
FACE
True Match Foundation by Loreal Paris in the colour Rosy Ivory.
Pressed Powder From Natural Collection in the colour Neutral.
Rimmel London Sun Shimmer Maxi Bronzing Powder for Contour.
Step One. I start with my eyes because i always end up getting some fallout. So i take my first colour and put it in my crease but not all the way into the inner eye just into the center.
As i do for every shadow i pack on the colour with a dense brush then i blend it out with a blender brush.
Step Two. I take the second colour and put it on top of the crease colour but keep the shade on the outer side of my eye just to make the corner look even more darker.
Step Three. I take colour number 3 and put it on most of my lids but still keeping the focus point on the center of my eye.
Step Four. I put the same colour on the center of my eye lid to make the colour stand out more.
Step Five. I take colour number 4 and put it in the inner hollow part of eye to give that bit more demention using a blender brush.
Step Six. Then i take a colour number 5 which is the lightest shade i could find and i went ahead and put that just on my brow bone to give my eyes a lift and to make them look more awake.
Step Seven. Now that my eye shadow is done, i can go ahead and apply my eye liner. This is where i use a mix of Gel and Pen liner because as most girls, i have trouble getting my wings perfect so i use the Pen to line the eye. This time i went right into the corner of my eye. Then i use the Gel to create the wing as i feel for me it makes it more precise. Then when i am done i go over with the Pen to make the wing stand out a bit more. And luckily enough, that was the first time i got both wings right first time! Hehe.
Step Eight. I use a Pencil liner to do my water line and my tight line.(I dont know about you but when i do my tight line it really hurts and makes me cry. Not sure if i am doing it right but it looks good right?)
Step Nine. Next is the foundation, there are always debate going on, whether you should put it on before or after. I normally do this first but today i wanted a change so i put it on after the shadow. I put a bit on the back of my hand then i dot it all over my face so it is even. Then i use a buffing brush to blend it all in. Dont forget the neck and your ears if you re gonna have your hair up.
Step Ten. I set my foundation with a powder using a multi task brush.
Step Eleven. I now contour my face using a bronzer, and the one i am using has lasted for ever and i haven't hit pan yet! I apply that on my face using a kobookki brush and i put it just below my cheek bones and on the two highest points of my forehead and all around my neck because if you put it on your neck it gives the appearance of a thinner neck.
Step Twelve. I put a dark red lip on as it is Autumn.
Step Thirteen. I take my hair down and it is naturally wavy.
And that is how i did that. If you want to see any particular look then let me know in the comments so i can do it for you. hope you enjoyed this blog and i will see you tomoz with another one!
Love you Xx
Not much has been going on with me at the moment. Well i have got a new boyfriend and he is the cutest ever. But that is about all.
Today i am gonna be taking about living with parents. Now at the moment i am 20 and i think time is going to go really quick from now on so i have to start thinking about when i am gonna move out and get my own place. The thing is i don't have any money at all, I am struggling to get into work and i really dont want to go on job seekers, just thinking about it right now makes me feel sick and my anxiety levels go sky high.
My mum isnt gonna be around for ever and i need to find a good way to get money and not get bored of what i do cause i dont want to be stuck doing the same thing for the rest of my life and not like it. Thats just not living.
There are lots of pro and cons to living with you parents and here it is.
Pros...
* You get to see your parents all the time.
* You only have to pay low rates to stay in the house.
* You get to mess around with your siblings if you have any.
* Food magically appears in your fridge.
* You dont have to do all the cleaning for your self.
Cons...
* Siblings that you dont like take the piss out of you all the time for being better than you.
* Parents nag at you for not doing no work in the house even though you hover the floors and wash your own clothes.
* The food that does turn up is food that you dont want to eat and is bad for you and you cant eat it, but you have to as there is nothing else to eat.
* You have no control over how the house may look.
* Siblings make it even messier when you have just made it all clean and sparkly!
So yeah, pros and cons all the way round but i have to stay cause i cause affort a flat to myself. I just have to keep wishing that one day i will get what i want and i will be living just happy on my own then i can get my own healthy food and lose this extra weight i have! Haha
It will happen one day i Promise you all! :)
Thanks for reading, dont forget to leave a comment down below about your thoughts of living with your parents and stay tuned for tomorrow for more Zobo talking!
Speak soon! :) Xx
This weeks of adventures is gonna be fun, I have planned to meet a guy and he is quite lovely. We plan to get to the cinema on Tuesday then if it all goes well we might go to Great yarmouth... I dont think i spelt that right. haha I will have to write about what actually happened.
To be honest i dont like meeting new people cause i dont know what they are thinking of me. I have a lot of social anxiety about it all but i just have to suck it up and try to be my crazy self. When i get nervous i always end up laughing for no reason! Its just how i deal with awkward situation.
Xx
Well hello there. Hope you are well and i know it have heen a hell of a long time for me not being on here. i don't really have any reason apart from me not being myself.
My mind has been pushing me to the limits and i have been finding it hard to resist. This must be sounding ridiculous to you but its just what i am thinking and im not quite sure how to stop it.
I have been to the doctors and they have put me on meds but that didnt work, i went to see a specialist and he said it is just a low mood. I dont trust him cause i have had this since i have been in high school so how come it can be a LOW MOOD when i still fucking suffer from it. I know it is gonna be with me for a while but if i have to deal with it forever, i dont want to live like this.
So i have now gone into shut down mode and it has been a month now. I am in trouble with my mum because i haven't been going to the job center. I wasn't even looking for a job anyway, so i was basically cheating the system anyways. I dont know how to tell her that i dont want a job because i dont feel capable of it. The job i do feel capable of is doing youtube and this because i am my own boss and i get to do what i want. I take everything to heart and if i am in my room no one can hurt me apart from people online but i tend not to listen to them and block them.
http://youtu.be/9xbRJt63QZw
I dont have many subscriber to make it into a job yet though. still working on that one.
But speaking about the now i am ILL and it is not very nice. My mum got ill first then it was me. It started off with a sore throat, then a million sneezes, then all night i felt really sick. By the morning i was actually sick. NOT nice at all. After i was sick i started to feel better but the sneezing and the blocked nose and the watery eyes were still there. That is about where i am on the illness point of view. Xx
Soo... Peeps it has been a couple of weeks since i have spoken on here. The only reason i can give you is that i lost my way in life and was digging a hole in the ground that i didnt think i could get out of, but the hole is starting to get smaller and i am managing to find my way out.
I have made a lot of changes in my life that are meant to be for the better. I have been cleaning the house i live in and im trying to keep it in tip top condition, Also i have literally gotten too fat for my jeans so i have put myself on a sort of a diet? I saw this idea on Clothesencounters so i thought i would try it out. I have chosen to take a picture of everything i eat in an attempt to get my eating habits under control. The angle that i am coming from is that if i take a pic of ALL the food i eat and drink then I will concisely think or look to see if i have had it in a while, Plus because i am taking pics of everything i will want it to look prettier and more appeasing for me.
Here are my Rule for my new eating habits!
- One jug of tea in the morning and night.
- Orange Juice during the day.
- Chocolate once a week.
- Lower my portion sizes
- Take a pic of everything i Eat and Drink.
That is all, Wish me luck... Again! :) Xx
Hey Everyone just thought i would give you all a life update as i have a lot to say... AGAIN! Haha
So i have managed to get myself a new camera with a viewfinder on it and i cant tell you how helpful that is to have. I can now start to get my angles right now and people just don't know how much joy that gives me. This week i am planning on getting new Editing software because Windows movies maker is just too simple for me now and i want to do more with my editing! Hopfully as well if have enough money i will get some train ticket to see my fiend as that would be another fun experience! And i miss her!
Also at this current point in time i have 126 Subscribers which is mind boggling to me. I only have 3 friends in real life and to think that all of the people like what i do and watch what i put up just brings happy tears to my eyes. But now that i have gotten this far i have no limits as to how far i can go on YouTube. I really don't know what i am gonna do if i reach 1000 or 10,000! My family aint gonna believe a word i say! They cant understand why i have 100 let alone a big number like that! I would love it with all my heart if i could make this my full time job, because i have the entrepreneur thinking and i don't want to work for someone else, so i am gonna try everyday with all my heart to make this a perfect as possible.
People always put me down saying i cant do that and i wont succeed but i will if i put all my effort into it and and my energy and all my time then it will... it has to. They say i am a dreamer and to live in the real world well i dont want to. I want to make my own reality. so dont you dare come to me and tell me i cant do something when anything is possible.
Its okay to go left if it doesn't feel right!
Oh god and a new series of My Mad Fat Diary's have come on and OMFG is that good. I thought it wouldn't be as good at the first because the first was amazing. But they have proved me wrong. I was squealing with excitement all the way through episode 1 and i watched episode 2 online last night and i did the same. I feel like some aspects of it is what i have done in the past. All i can say is keep up the great work. Rae is a true inspiration!

Here is my next installment of my natural collection review of the pressed powder!
This is the top two of my favorite products from this collection.
It looks like an average powder that has a clear top casing and i haven't used any other powder because this is perfect for me. I had been using this in the color cool but when i went to boots to get another one all the other colors look the same to me so i decided to get the one with the coolest names and i chose Neutral. So i cant wait to use that after this one is all gone.
To be honest i have never actually repurchased a product before, this is a first.
On the back of the label it says Reduces shine to get a matte finish to the skin. I believe this is true and i pack this on around my t-zone. It doesn't make me look cakey and it is just perfect.
The only flaw that it has is that you doesn't come with any applicator such as a sponge or a brush. I have only used a sponge as i feel that if i use a brush it picks up more powder than i need and i go through it a lot quicker.
That is all i think i have to say about this at the moment. The next review will be on Mascara so stay tuned for that!
Lots of Love
Zoe
