How to Have a Tumblr room

Hiya Chummies!
Today I am going to be doing a post on... How to have a tumblr room! Now I know by the title you are thinking, "god, Aimee! You've done a post just like this! " To be totally honest with you guys, the last post was crap so I am making a new and improved version! also, I am going to have a more decorations included ( e.g- only decorations ). Now, before I start, I must make something clear. This isn't me showing off in any way at all because... Do you want to hear a secret?
*I have an uurrgggllyy room!*


Let me start off this room parade with :

Fairy Lights!
Fairy Lights bring your room to life and make it look sparkly and beautiful ! Also, they are an awesome alternative for bedside lamp ( although it would be ideal if the switch was near to your bed!)

Pretty Bed sheets!
Now, I know you think this is crazy, but actually really works!Having not just a plain, white, boring bed, you could have livened up sheets! ( Although, I am not suggesting something like this picture above unless you are very much a girly girl... ) Or, you could go for the more relaxed look and have something like this!

Look up!
Wall posterssssss 
You can either go for this look


The omf I'm going to completely and utterly cover my walls!!! In this case, it doesn't really matter what kind of stuff you put up there because there is so much, people won't be looking at one specific picture. For example someone who was like me and liked music like...

My Chemical Romance
All Time Low
Sleeping With Sirens Pierce the Veil
e.t.c

It would not be a complete disaster if you had a Justin Bieber picture up because it would just blend in! 


However, If you had something like this, where you had only a few wall poster, you would probably have to keep it more specific. e.g- This person's room has all got the same brand of picture! It doesn't have to be like that though, you could just have the same sort of band (look at my example above) a Justin Bieber picture on your wall would leave you with a lot of explaining to do to your fellow MCRmy. You could also, stick some BIG pictures on your ceiling above your bed so that when you go to sleep or your are lying on your bed, you can see them in a really cool way! Word to the wise: If you have a bunk bed, I would't advise a picture of someone's face because it is really scary when you wake up  and the first thing you see is a huge face staring right at you a few feet away!

Magazinesss and Books
Now we move on! The thing I have to say about magazines and books is.. have them! But have them scattered around your room. NEATLEY. That is another thing I will come onto. If you are a bookaholic ( like me) you will have an extremely impressive and vast collection of books. Don't keep them all in your room though, keep them in different places and you can keep small stacks in you room! 

Flowers!
Flowers are really great way to liven up your room and add a pretty smell! Any type will do but I don't recommend any that drop a lot of leaves or petals  because it will be really annoying to tidy up all the time! 

Candles!
CANDLES if you want to talk to a candle specialist, my friends, then go over to Edie's blog but I will try my very best to tell you what I know. If you have the choice, go for a SCENTED candle because even though candles are beautiful to look at the smell is even nicer! ( although if you have quite a small room or are quite young I wouldn't recommend burning them them the whole time because it can get very smoky and something could catch alight! If you are going for appearance then I recommend Yankee Candles but again, you should really be talking to Edie about this. For scented, I recommend The Body Shop although it really depends on your taste because some companies are better than others with certain smells.

See ya later, Alligator

Yo! sushi

 Hiya Chummies! Today, I am doing a post on Yo! sushi. I went to Yo! sushi for the first time in Buchanan street (Glasgow for non-scots). Then went the day after because I love it so much!
(Before you start wondering, there is no specific reason for my writing to be like this, it is just impossible editing a post on a Mac!)

Yo! sushi is such a fun restaurant it is a CRIME to not have gone there! ( guilty as charged ).
I am going to give you a run through on how things work there then I will recommend dishes for you lovely jublies!
ENTERING:
You will be blown down by an array of colours , smells, and people. When you enter, there are two queues, eat in or takeaway .

EAT-IN: If you have the choice ask for a booth, I will explain why later.

GETTING A PLACE: Booths are a much better choice of seat because there are tiny little taps on your table! Still and Sparkling. They are there because the whole point of Yo! sushi is that you try loads of new foods and they know that you don't always have time to order water if your mouth is on fire or you have had something so horrible you want to throw up. The down side of these taps is that, if you turn them on without a cup, there is a hole directly under in the table. BUT. There is no drainage system beneath, so you better bring wellies! There is also  a little button on your table (dangerously near the water tap) that you press of you want a waiter.
THE FOOD:
At the beginning you get asked if you want Miso Soup (unlimited refills) or Green Tea.You also get a menu saying the hot stuff and what some of the cold stuff is. The hot stuff doesn't come round on the conveyer belt because unless you can't read, IT'S HOT. duh. Honestly, order as little cold stuff as possible because it is so much more fun taking it off the conveyer belt! I only ordered cold stuff if it wasn't coming round. Word to the wise, BE PATIENT. The conveyer belt goes around the whole restaurant so there might be something on the other side that you don't know about. Also, this goes out to all salmon lovers, because the salmon isn't smoked, or at least they claim it is ( it's not) it is really slimy and tastes of nothing.

THE PRICING:
each tinnyyyy meal comes in a coloured dish, each colour has a different price. If you don't like reading then look at this pretty (yet slightly depressing picture ) on how much of you money is taken away from you!



Now, you lucky ones, I am going to share with you, AIMEE'S YO! SUSHI SHORT LIST!!!!!!


Chicken Gyoza  £3.40 Grilled Chicken Thigh, sweet and sticky soy sauce 300kcal


Avocado Maki £2.30 Avocado, Mayonnaise ( 6 pieces ) 131 kcal
Cucumber Maki £1.70 Cucumber, sesame seeds ( 6 pieces ) 93 kcal


Custard Dorayaki £2.90 Japanese Pancake with custard filling and raspberry sauce 138kcal

So this is me, signing off. I hope this helped you out!

A Note on My Chemical Romance





























Hiya chummies,
This is a post on... My Chemical Romance. If you look on my previous post, you'll see how much I love them. They broke up in 2013, and I'm sure the MCRmry are still grieving over their loss.  I will introduce you to the band members.

,

This is Gerard Way. He is the lead singer. In my opinion, it would be an understatement to refer to him as THE GOD OF MUSIC. For me, whenever I think about the band, the first thing that springs to mind is Mr. Way. It's not just his forever changing hair colours ( #lemonisdead ) that make him amazing, it is his ALL ROUND AMAZINGNESS! ( when we are talking about Gerard, amazing ness IS a word ). On a more serious note, he suffered with depression and was suicidal, and the band saved his life. He has been such an inspiration to me, and the fact that he was at a point so low, and managed to become the success he is today, is incredible. Also, he's brought out a new album, so go listen if you want your life to be changed.


Now we move onto Frank Iero ( with an i not an l ) he plays the guitar (2nd in command), I'm so sorry..... I don't  have  any other  way to say it...  He doesn't normally look like this, although the blood look is growing on me, he is just... Amazzzzzing! I also am a major Frerard shipper.


Followed by Ray Toro! This guy has the best hair I have ever seen. He is the lead guitarist ( again, I apologize for trying to describe frank's position and ending up sounding like a pirate ). He is absolutely amazing at what he does and his hair is godly! Whenever I hear a guitar solo coming up, I find myself uncontrollably saying 'Ray Ray's cray cray solo'. Yeah, it's come to that.

Mikey Way, the bassist. He's actually Gerard's brother. He has possibly the best meaningful stare I've ever seen.


The first time I heard one of their songs ( It was 'I'm Not Okay' ), I got chills. The song spoke to me, and I still have days where I'll play it on repeat.
It's safe to say I'm obsessed, however it makes me weep knowing they'll most likely never bring out a new song to feed my obsession.


My favourite album would have to be The Black Parade because it has most of my favourite songs and has variety of slow and calm (ish) music and proper MCR style let's go properly mental style music! . All of the songs on that album just put me in the best mood I can't get out of.


They're all nearing their 40s, and after being together for so long as a band, it makes it even harder to accept they're gone. They've play such a huge part in my life, and I don't want to ever forget the effect they've had on me.

so long and goodnight

More About Me

Hiya chummies! If you want to know more about me, keep reading. I was born on the 6th of November 2001. I went to the best school ever, solely because of its name, The Unicorn School. Yeah guys, it's real. Google it if you don't believe me.

 I discovered my love for singing and acting after primary school. I failed to get into my first choice school, and I am now wound up at my last choice. Fun. Now at my secondary school, I have discovered my hate for learning, friendships, and any sort of socialization.

























I go to a drama school on Saturday morning which I have made a lot of friends at. I was in the National Theatre Christmas production 2013 called Emil and the Detectives, in which I played Hilde. On the trailer, if you go to 0:42, I'm the one in the grey apron and newspaper hat. I also have the first line ( This is Emil ). I made a lot of great friends there, who I will miss dearly.


























Now that my life is unoccupied by endless rehearsals, I have turned my devotion towards  boy bands,blogging, and hiding under staircases ( no, that was not a Harry Potter reference ). If you want to know more about my emo boy band obsessions, click here.

See ya later, alligator.
