THE BIG TWO ZERO - PART TWO(Final part)

Hello, hi and welcome! I am now writing my first blog post as a twenty year old(but in my head I am forever fifteen).

I have had a wonderful birthday, it's been filled with nothing but love from everyone I love, and happiness. If we're talking technical; I started my birthday watching the funniest video collage that Becky had made for me at midnight. It was a mixture of car videos, snapchats, dubsmashes and videos from her laptop that she'd put together of us, mainly me being weird and crying/singing One Direction. And for that, I thank you Becky - it made me cry with laughter.

I woke up to this: 

I did eat something too but I didn't take a photo of that. Mum brought this up, very cute and obviously in a 2011 One Direction mug(the FEELS).

I then got ready, I had selected a few outfit options but I didn't feel comfortable in any of them. I eventually went for a blue peter pan collar top from primark(couldn't find it soz), jeans from H&M(click) and these sandals: click.

I went to my brother and sisters at around 11am, where I was given a Pandora charm and a link from my dad.

I was really surprised when I opened these but I love them both a lot. The link to the clip is here: clip.

Then, I opened presents from my brother and sister.

Little brother Kayden, little sister Leah(just in shot) and myself.

I was given this plaque for my new place in Berlin(I move to Germany on the 10th!). I can't wait to hang it up in my apartment. I was also given this amazing cushion with both my brother and sister on - now it's just deciding whether to put it on my sofa or on my bed(or alternate).

After spending a couple of hours with my brother and sister, my dad dropped me in town where I met my mum, Becky, and I was surprised by Charlotte who was with Riley-James and Carter(my nephews). Charlotte's twin sister Rachael also came too with her daughter.


Presents from my mum: 

Pete Pan doll from Disney store(click)
Jim Carrey 4 film collection(click)
Reb'l Fleur by Rihanna body mist(click)

All of these presents are sort of personal rather than the typical birthday gifts. The Peter Pan doll is because he's my favourite Disney Character(as well as Jessie from Toy Story but that's Pixar and I already have two Jessie dolls). I've looked and looked for Peter Pan dolls but I only ever seem to get Tinkerbell stuff *sigh*.

Jim Carrey has always been a favourite actor of mine, ever since I can remember really. I find him hilarious and there isn't one film that I hate of his(I've genuinely seen them all).

And THAT'S the way the cookie crumbles.(Bruce Almighty reference)

Lastly, the Reb'l Fleur body mist explains itself really. Reb'l Fleur is one of my favourite perfumes of all time along with Britney Spears: Midnight Fantasy, so I thought why not have the body mist to go with the perfume?(Obviously I won't wear them together).

I was also given the cutest paint prints from Riley and Carter:

It reads their names and ages. I need to frame this and find a spot for it to hang in my new apartment(cannot wait). Plus, LOOK AT THEIR ITTY-BITTY FEET.


My presents from Becky:

Like my presents from my mum, these also hold personal meanings too. The 'CHOOSE HAPPY' poster - that is actually up already - was given to Becky by Sprinkle of Glitter aka Louise Pentland herself AND it's even signed. WIN.

The mug is personally one of my favourite presents I've ever been given. It reads my name and then: 'complete idiot; joe sugg obsessive; spider killer; instagram queen; tmh harry lover; eyeliner professional(favourite bit); best friend.' WHO DOESN'T NEED A MUG WITH ALL OF THESE THINGS ON?!  Yep, already planning how I'm going to pack it for Berlin.

Lastly is the CUTEST keyring that I won't even use as a keyring because I personally think it's far too precious. I WILL find a better use for it. Inside there are personal charms that sum me up; an N for obvious reasons, a number 7 as it's my lucky number, my birth stone, a plane and a little 'happy birthday' gem. PRECIOUS I TELL YOU.

I was also lucky to receive presents from my Aunty Helen who at the moment is quite ill so I appreciate them that little bit more.

Mindfullness Mandalas(Book 7): click here.
I couldn't find a link to the One Direction money box(I'm sure you're all pulling out your hair in despair - sorry).

I have an obsession with these adult colouring books(I've mentioned it quite a few times). They are just SO relaxing and entertaining, I literally couldn't live without one anymore. The money box was a little joke but I will use it for all terms and purposes and have it on my desk in Germany. I take all things 1D related very seriously EVEN AT 20 AND WHAT.

After a chaotic time in Pizza Hut, Charlotte, Rachael and the children left and Mum, myself and Becky went for a Costa.

Mum got a cappuccino, Becky got an original ice lemonade, and I got a peach lemonade LONG LIVE STRAWBERRY LEMONADES AND DAMN YOU COSTA FOR GETTING RID.

We then had a look around the shops, including a sniff of the new One Direction perfume 'Between Us' which is out today - I wasn't a fan(I COULDN'T SMELL NIALL'S TEARS LIKE THEY FALSELY ADVERTISED ALRIGHT), Becky liked it though.


Becky and I then had a go in Urban Outfitters photobooth:

Who doesn't love a photobooth?!

Mum and I(well, mum - I was in the photobooth) found a dress that I'm helplessly in love with - mum too, and we've decided we're going back for it on saturday, look how pretty it is: oh so pretty.

I would just like to say a huge thank you to everyone who made my birthday really, it's been fabulous and I wouldn't have wanted to spend it with anyone else!

Thanks for reading, it was nice to share my day! I'm not sponsored or any fancy business - simply sharing my cute gifts!

Until next time..

P.s: I was totally kidding about the Niall's tears bit. I know they don't actually put his tears in.
P.p.s: I wish they did, then I'd buy all the bottles.

TOP TEN: Disney Films(Non-Animated)

Hello, hi and welcome back! Just like my last post but this time non animated Disney films.

TEN: Cool Runnings.

KISS ME LUCKY EGG.

Amazing film, please don't tell me you have never seen this otherwise I will smash my phone into my face(I won't but watch it).

NINE: The Santa Claus.

Festive and amazing. Everyone has to have seen this film, right? RIGHT?

EIGHT: The Princess Diaries.

I remember wishing I could be a secret princess. The books are also really good.

SEVEN: The Parent Trap.

Because Lindsay Lohan is absolutely amazing in this film, she was 8 when she did this. I was obsessed with this film as well when I was a kid.

SIX: Pirates Of The Caribbean. 

Don't ask me my favourite because they all are, although The Black Pearl and Dead Man's Chest are close #1's. 

Also, Johnny Depp. 

'Nuff said.

FIVE: Bedknobs and Broomsticks.

This was always on Disney Channel on Sundays and I'd always watch it. Under the sea bit is the best bit(very bad special effects though).

FOUR: Freaky Friday.

I like both versions, but my favourite is with Lindsay Lohan. Watched this on repeat like you wouldn't believe.

THREE: Maleficent.

Can't even explain to you the love I have for this film. Came out last year but I don't care, straight to number three.

TWO: Mary Poppins.

LET'S GO FLY A KITE, UP TO THE HIGHEST HEIGHT.

Pains me that it's number two but it had to be. My love for Julia Andrews is everlasting. I even remember wishing she was my nanny. 

ONE: Cat In The Hat.

Okay, I'm sorry. Really sorry. Cat In The Hat ISN'T Disney, it's dreamworks BUT it did used to get shown on Disney Channel, and it's my favourite childhood film ever(as well as 101 dalmations). I will choose this film over anything and everything. Alright?

I could quote it word for word so don't ever watch it with me.

ZINGA.

I have a Thing 1 pyjama set and my friend Abi has the Thing 2 set(she bought them for my 18th because she's cute).

There you have it guys my top 9 Disney and 1 Dreamworks(haha) non animated films! Hope you enjoyed reading, until next time..

TOP TEN: Favourite Disney Films(Animated).

Hello, hi and welcome! Thought because I love doing top ten's so much, I'd do one about one of the most controversial subjects in the film industry; Disney Movies.

TEN: The Little Mermaid.

UP WHERE THEY WALK, UP WHERE THEY RUN, UP WHERE THEY LAY ALL DAY IN THE SUUUUN.

If your favourite character in this isn't Sebastian you're a liar. Also, had Flounder pyjamas and a huge teddy of him from Disney Store(birthday present).. Still have it. No regrets.

NINE: Cinderella.

I love all versions of this film, but obviously the classic 1950's is my favourite. 

EIGHT: The Aristocats.

This films quite special to me because my grandparents bought it me one Christmas then we all watched it together, then I went through a phase of watching it morning, noon and night. I also had a Marie cushion(from Disney Store) and had a gerbil called Toulouse in honour.

SEVEN: The Jungle Book.

I WANNA BE LIKE YOU OOH-OOH-OOH.

If it isn't in your top ten then ask yourself why.

SIX: Robin Hood.

Not it's not just because I'm from Nottingham. Freakin' loved Robin Hood. Also went through a phase of watching it on repeat and I don't regret it.

FIVE: The Emperor's New Groove.

Not a usual classic but I just fell in love with this film as a kid, and I was so happy it got it's own spin off tv show on Disney Channel(Watched it everyday after school).

FOUR: Aladdin.

Always wanted a magic carpet, still do. And a Genie. Please.

THREE: Toy Story(1,2 and 3).

Produced by Pixar Studios but it's owned and released by Disney(it's true, I googled it: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toy_Story). 

One of my favourite memories is watching this with my dad in the morning before nursery. He also took me to the cinema to see 2 and 3. 

YOUUUU GOT A FRIEND IN ME.

TWO: Peter Pan.

Okay, I admit it. I was completely and utterly obsessed with this film as a child. I had everything tinkerbell you can imagine. Peter Pan is my childhood to me.

Also another film I went through a phase of watching over and over. And I don't actually think I'm out of it to be honest.

YOU CAN FLY, YOU CAN FLY, YOU CAN FLYYYYY.

ONE: * Drumroll...*

101 DALMATIONS.

I was so obsessed with this film my mum hid my videos(No not DVDs, young kids look up what a VCR is..) she had to hide them because I watched it so much as a child she was worried that I wouldn't actually grow out of it.

I have(now) every version of 101dalmations on DVD and I still watch it when I feel lazy on a sunday(actually watched it last Saturday night because I am a party animal).

So, there you go.. My top 10! I'm also going to do my top ten non-animated Disney films because there's a lot of those too.

Until next time!..
