Celebrate the Small Things


Celebrate the Small Things is a weekly bloghop hosted by Viklit over at Scribblings of anAspiring Author. The idea is to post anything you want to celebrate from the last week.




I have quite a lot to celebrate this week:

- I went to Hartwell Ford on Tuesday to have a look around, and ended up buying a new car...I loved my old car, but I'm glad to get a new one since I did have quite a few problems with the old one. This one is two years newer and has only done 9000 miles, so hopefully I'll have less problems with it. I can't wait to pick it up later on today :) It's an interesting colour, kind of a pale creamy green, which I've never seen before.

- I also got my hair cut. I hadn't had it cut for about a year (I'm not exaggerating here, unfortunately) so it was very long, it reached the bottom of my back. It's now shoulder length, and I also got highlights so it's blonder too. It's so much easier to manage! Although I'm going to miss all of my long plaits.

- I reached 200 followers this week, thanks to all of you for following me :)

- The assignment that I've been desperately trying to find the time to complete is almost done now, just in time for hand in next week.

- Two new games come out today that I've been looking forward to for a while, and I'll be able to play them since I've almost done my assignment.


That's what I'm celebrating, how about you?

    1. My car is quite an unusual colour (one of the reasons why I chose it) it's a cream colour, but when you look closely there's a hint of green :)

  9. Woohoo! Celebrating with you! What color is your car interior? Does it go well with the outside? Fabric, vinyl or leather? (hit the buttons too fast, I'm afraid...jumpy from our storm - lots of thunder out here...even spilled coffee all over myself this morning from it.)

    1. Interior is made of fabric, pale to match the outside of the car. It's very nice.
      Ahh we haven't had a good thunderstorm in ages, could do with one :)

  10. Woot woot for a new haircut and a new car! I'm partial to the color green so I know I'd love it! =)

    1. It's very nice, it has to be under the right light to see the green, though :)

    1. I loved my last one, so this one should be great. My mum has a brand new model, a Ford Fiesta Zetec Sport, which I'm very jealous of.
