Just me.

Just me.
I dare you to let me be your one and only.

Leopard Shorts!

So yesterday I went shopping with my mum and I haven't been shopping in AGES. My mum treated me to these gorgeous leopard shorts from Topshop. I remember they did some leopard shorts a bit different to these ones last year and I missed out on getting them, so I was made up when my mum decided to buy me these :)

They're a great length too, I love short shorts!

Have a nice day :) xx

Topshop Treasures!

Hellooo!

It feels like I haven't blogged in foreverrrr. So I was browsing through the Topshop website and came across a few bits and bobs which I am lusting over at the moment. I'm really into the whole grey/dark colour thing at the moment, jazzing the dull colours up with something statementy like a coloured piece of jewellery or a pattered shoe. You'll see what I mean... :)

I want this because it is absolutely adorable.

I want this because the sheer panelling down the middle is edgy and different.

I want this because it's edgy and the different fabric's scream sexy.

I want this because it's beautiful.

I want these because they're sooo funky.

I want this because it's sexy and it's all about the lace.

I want these because they're so glam, chic and beautiful.

I want these because they'll brighten up any outfit.

I want this because body-con is sooo my thing and I love the light grey colour of this skirt and the zip down the middle gives it a different twist.

What do you like at the moment?

Much Love

September Favourites!

Hmm, what to do at 3:45 on a Sunday afternoon? Ah, I know. Blogggggg :)
Blogging is the only way I can really communicate at the moment because I have a cold(bad times!). Blergh, everyone's been getting it though - Kim and Kourtney Kardashian have even tweeted about it! :o haha, anyway. Enough of me rambling. Enjoy my post :)

I was really into curls at the beginning of this month because it was suuuuper windy and my hair is naturally kinda flicky and wavy at the same time, so wind and straight hair for me = annoying little flicks everywhere. So I figured that if I curled it, the curls would just drop into nicer waves than the ones I get naturally. It worked :) however, I don't have a curling iron and I have to use my black GHD's to curl my hair, but it's not the same is it? I'm on the hunt for a good curling iron :) I heard Babyliss have a good one? Xmas list!

Leopard pumps: around 17 pounds from New Look. 
You'd think these would be pretty comfy because they're like ballet pumps. Well, you thought wrong! After about an hour or so, your feet will hurt! But 'no pain no gain' right? They look super duper cute on and leopard print is totally my thing :) they jazz up any outfit. I love putting them with jeans and a simple top, so the focus really is on the shoes.

Benefit High Beam: 18 pounds from the Benefit.
Oh. My. God. I am in LOVE with this product. I'd heard loads of good stuff about this product and had been wanting it for a while because it honestly makes you look so pretty :) it's a lovely champagne colour and it is a highlight for your cheekbones and brow bones. It's perfect if you want to look positively glowing :)

Vanilla Body Spray, 4 pounds from Boots. 
Vanilla is probably my favourite smell ever. It's gorgeous. This body spray has fast become one of my favourite fragrances to wear. Just a few spritz's every now and again and you'll have everyone falling for you, as vanilla is an aphrodisiac ;)

Baby Pink Ice watch, prices vary.
My mum got me this for my birthday last year and I still love it. I kinda wanna collect them, I love the mint green one and the bright lilac one! They come in these boxes which act as money boxes and stack on top of each other which I think is cute. The colours are nicely pigmented and they brighten up every outfit :)

Topshop nail polish in Moonshine, 8 pounds.
This colour is beautiful. I've been wanting a nudey kind of colour because my school is so tight on nail varnish and I figured I might be able to get away with this one... we'll see!

Topshop lipstick in On The Town, 8 pounds.
I think it's called On The Town... I'm not sure :P but anyways, HOW HOT IS THIS COLOUR!? I cannot wait to wear it. It's purple, yes. But I'm not a red lip girl really, so I get my pleasures out of pinks and purples. Might upload it on my lips later on in the week :)

Hope you enjoyed, bye bye xx

Do I lead guys on?

I'm scared that I lead guys on. Honestly, if I do, I don't do it intentionally. I'm a very flirty, friendly person. It's just who I am. So, if I'm friends with someone, if I like someone, I'll be friendly towards them and if it's a guy, I'll be friendly with a hint of flirty. It's just how I am. I don't see anything wrong with it. But as I think about the more and more guys that talk to me, maybe they might take my friendly/flirty style of talking the wrong way? I mean when I really like someone, then I make that clear. But I do talk to a lot of lads and I'm scared that one day I'm gunna have no one because they all think all I've been doing is messing them about when that isn't my intention :/ I love making friends and being friendly and having banter with people. I also wonder if I'm a good person, whether good things will happen to me. I don't believe that I am a bad person, but I don't see the harm in being friendly with someone. I won't stop talking to someone just because someone else thinks I'm leading them on. But I just can't help wonder, why am I like this? Most of it is genuinely how I am, but maybe, say, 10% of that is the fact that I want to feel wanted. I haven't had a boyfriend for a while, and every other guy uses me. So maybe when somebody shows an interest, I have a guard up. Do you really blame me though? Every single guy that I have liked has either messed me around, or it hasn't worked out.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'm not a bad girl, just a broken hearted one that wants to be loved by a guy one day.

44 Questions That Will Free Your Mind.

As you might be able to tell, I is BORED. Therefore, I have scoured the Internet instead of doing my homework in search of fun questions to answer. Here's what I got:

1) How old would you be if you didn't know how old you were?
- honestly, I think I'd be my age. Fifteen. Because even though I am mature, I still feel the need to act like an idiot every now and again. So I'm grown up, but can never resist the urge to snap back into childhood. Also, I do not have enough knowledge to be any older or wiser. I learn new things everyday.

2) Which is worse, failing or never trying?
- never trying. I believe that everything is worth a try at least once. However, I'm not saying you should do all the things that you do not want to. But I always try to go into things with an open mind. I cannot stand failing, but as long as I tried my best that is all that mattered.

3) If life is so short, why do we do so many things we don't like and like so many things we don't do?
- wow. Mind boggling question. Personally, I think that if you like something, but never do it: that there either something holding you back like a person or a sense of fear. Also, I believe that we do so many things we don't like as a result of pressure. Nobody wants to feel like an outsider, so the common human tends to stick along with what everyone else is doing.

4) When it's all said and done, will you have said more than you've done?
- I probably will have, yes.

5) What is the one thing you'd like to change most about the world?
- honestly, I'm finding it hard to think of an answer to this one. It's not that I wouldn't change anything if given the chance. I'm just not really sure what the one thing I'd change would be. Probably to just let everything be and for countries to stop getting in other countries businesses and causing wars. Maybe peace would be restored if everyone just let it be.

6) If happiness was the national currency, what would make you rich?
- love. The times when I have felt love from others have been the times where I have been the happiest.

7) Are you doing what you believe in, or are you settling for what you are doing?
- settling for what I am doing. I'm currently in school when I'd much rather be traveling the world or meeting celebrities. But education is everything, and whilst high school is free I might as well cherish every moment of education I have. Don't get me wrong, I love learning. But sometimes I wonder : I wonder if I'd learn more if I was actually out doing something practical and seeing things for myself.


8) If the average human life span was 40 years, how would you live your life differently?
- knowing now that I probably have a good life span, I believe that there is no rush in settling down and that 'Mr Right' will walk into my life when the time is right. However, if I knew that I only had until 40 to live, I probably would settle for a guy instead of knowing in my heart that he is the one. Because in my life, I want to experience everything. I would probably have children in my late teens and get married even earlier. I'd want to make sure I was secure in life.

9) To what degree have you controlled the course your life has taken?
- more so since I've become older. But, I believe it is a parents job to guide their child in a certain direction, however giving them space in order to grow as an individual.

10) Are you more worried about doing things right, or doing the right things?
- in my heart, I know when I do the right thing. But if somebody sets me a task and expects me to do something in a certain way, then I will worry about doing it correctly and hoping to get their approval once I have finished.

11) You're having lunch with 3 people you respect and admire. They all start criticising a close friend of yours, not knowing that she is your friend. The criticism is disgraceful and unjustified. What do you do?
- inform them that she is my friend and while I respect their opinions, I will also forward mine. Because she is a close friend, I will know the type of person she is more than them. I will stick up for her and will not feel ashamed of having an opinion.

12) If you could offer a new born child only one piece of advice, what would it be?
- don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened. That quote will get the child through each day of it's life.

13) Would you break the law to save a loved one?
- it would depend on the deed I had to do.

14) Have you ever seen insanity where you later saw creativity?
- yes. On a college intake day, one Photography student bases their projects on abandoned buildings. To achieve the perfect shots, they had to break into buildings. The idea may seem crazy, but the pictures I saw before me were out of this world.

15) What is something that you know you do differently to most people?
- most girls are dictated with the way they put on their make up by make up guru's on Youtube. They start with a moisturiser, then go onto foundation, power, eye shadow, eyeliner, mascara, bronzer, blusher, lipstick, lipgloss. For a start, I don't even wear foundation. I put on my mascara first because that wakes up my face and gives me an idea of the kind of look I am going for based on the way my eyelashes look. I follow with bronzer, then go onto eye shadows and go onto eyeliner. I finish with a lipstick/lipgloss just the same though.

16) How come the things that make you happy don't make everyone happy?
- mind blowing question. I don't actually know. Possibly upbringing. Like rock music makes me happy because my Dad has such a passion for it and it's all I heard whilst growing up. Even though I love pop music, rock will always be my first love because it was what I was brought up with. Simples.

17) What is one thing you really want to do? What's holding you back?
- travel the world. Money.

18) Are you holding onto something you need to let go of?
- I'm currently learning to let go of something. Or someone should I say. They chose someone else and not me, and I have to deal with that. I have to deal with the fact that they wanted someone else more than me. And I am doing. I've learned that Taylor Swift is correct. That when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you, you're gunna believe them. Like I said, life is a learning experience.

19) If you had to move to a state or country besides where you live now, where would you move to and why?
- London, Miami, New York, Tenerife and South Africa are all possibilities, because I would love to visit Miami, New York and South Africa and Tenerife and London make me happy.

20) Do you push the elevator button more than once? Do you really think it makes the elevator come quicker?
- no I don't because I'm scared the elevator will get confused and stop working, leaving me trapped inside and knowing my luck the alarm will have broken.

21) Would you rather be a worried genius or a joyful simpleton?
- joyful simpleton. I love being happy :)

22) Why are you, you?
- I've just looked to people who I admire and adapted some of their ways into my own. Like my Dad for example, I try very hard to mimic his wise, open minded look on life. I believe i've inherited that, anyway. Honestly, I don't really know.

23) Have you been the kind of friend that you would want as a friend?
- yes. I'd love to have a friend like me. I'm being serious. I'm the most understanding person in the world.

24) Which is worse, when a good friend moves away, or losing touch with a good friend who lives right near you?
- the second one because I have experienced that myself for 13 years and I have only just got him back and it is honestly the best feeling in the world. Even if we're not best friends anymore, I get a smile when I see him now. And that's more than I ever thought I would ever get again.

25) What are you most grateful for?
- my parents. I absolutely love my parents to death. They are my favourite people in the whole entire world. I could not have asked to have been born to the couple that I did, because they have told me multiple times that they were thrilled with me and I was the best thing that ever happened to them. If all else fails, I know I'll always have my parents.

26) Would you rather lose all your old memories, or never be able to make new ones?
- OMG this is a hard question! :( Do I have to pick? omg I can't chose! No, I can't I'm sorry. Memories are one of my favourite things about life. I'd be distraught if any of the two happened to me.

27) Is it possible to know the truth without challenging it first?
- yes. Sometimes things just blurt out...

28) Has your greatest fear ever come true?
- no, thank goodness.

29) Do you remember that time 5 years ago when you were extremely upset? Does it matter now?
- the only extremely upsetting thing I can remember which happened about 5 years ago was giving my very first dog away due to my mum being very ill. I have another dog now who I love dearly, but at the time I was heartbroken and it took me a very long time to get over having my dog taken away from me. However, now I understand the severity of my mums illness and I understand that she did not give the dog away out of spite, but purely because she could not cope. My dog went to a very good home and probably has(or had) the best time ever.

30) What is your happiest childhood memory? What makes it so special?
- I remember making butterfly wings at nursery and being obsessed with them. I wouldn't take them off and my Dad caught me on video running around the garden in my butterfly wings. Then, I saw a real life butterfly. I just stopped and watched it for about 5 minutes: and this was all caught on camera. It's special because the video and memory truly resemble the simplicity of life when I was about 4. Oh how things change...

31) At what time in your life have you felt most passionate and alive?
- experiencing my first taste of love was something I'll never forget. Being on holiday made it all the more relaxing.

32) If not now, then when?
- sometime. Sometime soon :)

33) If you haven't achieved it yet, what do you have to lose?
- nothing. It's all about when the time is right.

34) Have you ever been with someone, said nothing, then walked away feeling like you've had the best conversation ever?
- yeah. It's that adrenaline rush, isn't it. It just does something to you which makes you smile and give off positive vibes that you can' help but feel nice :)

35) Why do religions that support love cause so many wars?
- I've asked myself that same question a few times. Nobody knows.

36) Is it possible to know, without a doubt, what is good and what is evil?
- I believe that you know in your heart whether something is good or not.

37) If you just won a million pounds, would you quit your job?
- erm I don't have a job anymore ;) But I wouldn't quit school. Education is priceless.

38) Would you rather have less work to do, or more work that you enjoy doing?
- if you enjoy something, you always want more, right? ;)

39) Do you feel like you've lived this day a hundred times before?
- no. Each day is totally different and a new learning experience.

40) When was the last time that you stormed into the dark with only a soft glow of an idea you strongly believed in?
- last week actually. One Direction are a boyband which I love dearly and I will back them up 100% no matter what. I strongly believe in the boys and had a confrontation with someone who despises them. I kept my cool, said my peace and felt proud to have stuck up for the boys like I did.

41) If you knew that everyone was going to die tomorrow, who would you visit?
- I'd visit my mum and dad, my family. My old dog, my new dog. The people who have dug their way into my heart and the people who believed in me even when I didn't.

42) Would you be willing to reduce your live expectancy by 10 years to become extremely attractive or famous? 
- no. I believe that I am attractive, I like the way that I look and I like my life.

43) What is the difference between being alive and truly living?
- alive, you're just there breathing away. Truly living, you're filling your days with things that take your breath away.

44) If we learn from our mistakes, why are we so afraid of making a mistake?
- fear of rejection. Everybody wants to be accepted.

Anything could happen.

Time really is the best healer.

Friday was probably one of the hardest days I've ever had to face, because it was my first real taste of heart ache. My mother said that she was sad for me because all I did all day was just follow her round in my own little world. It absolutely chucked it down on Friday too, and I didn't even care about getting wet. She knew that when I said that, that I wasn't myself that day. My mum gave me the advice of not to chase him, let him come to me. The amount of times I wanted to text him was unreal, but I didn't. And sure enough, yesterday he text me apologising. Some of you may think of me as a fool for listening to him and forgiving him, but he's played such a big part in my life. I can't not have him in my life. He was my first love, and you never forget your first love. Whether he'll be my only love, is another question. I'm very optimistic about my future with him and I am just going to see how things go.

I got my GCSE results Thursday, and overall I am pleased. But in two of the subjects, one in particular, I didn't do too well. But I am going to re-sit and really take next year seriously because these results are going to be important throughout my whole life. I am so pleased with my English results, I got an A! I honestly thought I was going to do bad and I would have to face the disappointment of my English teacher, because she put her faith in me. I had a real struggle in that exam, I nearly wrote 'I give up' on one of the questions because I just completely lost track. I'm very pleased with my mark, too. I got 101 out of 120. Woohoo! My English teacher was right, I could do it and I did do it. I did well in my controlled assessments too. So maybe I can do even better! :)

Maths seems to be a subject that haunts me. I don't struggle in lessons, I do all my homework and I even feel confident after doing an exam. But I always get D's. I need a C to pass maths and it's really frustrating that all my hard work isn't paying off. I've always struggled with maths, but I never thought it'd be this hard to get a C. I can't wait to get back into school and really try my very hardest with my education. I might as well make the most of it, because it's not going to be in my life forever and it's free. University fee's are insane, and you're not even guaranteed a job at the end of it all.

Anyways, hopefully my life will be on the up from now. I've got a clear head and an optimistic mind. Anything could happen.

I'm gunna blog everything and I don't really care.

I've been played.

Full on played.

I mean, I thought i'd been played in the past. But this is a WHOLE new level.

So i met up with my ex on holiday and we really reconnected and almost 'fell back in love' with each other and we promised we'd go out when we got back. He's back, and he 'doesn't know what to do' because he has a girlfriend.

In a way, I guess it's what I deserve because I kissed somebody elses boyfriend. But I really thought we had something special. I just am in utter shock. I really must have 'mug' tattooed on my forehead. I just don't know what to do anymore. I thought he was different. The way he looked at me even when I had no make up on, the way he held me close and kissed my forehead(or maybe he was kissing the tattoo) and the way he called me the 'prettiest girl he'd ever seen'. Maybe I should have seen it coming, that he just wanted to kiss an old flame just to see what it felt like. There's something in my heart which tells me that there's more to come and unfold in the story of me and him.

I just can't believe that i've been played.

Will I EVER find my 'Mr Right' ? :/

Saturdays Story.

I. Got. A. Job.

Wait, what!?

Yes. The blonde barbie bimbo has a job. Well, it's not a full on job. But it's a part time job at a beauty clinic about 30 minutes from where I live and my auntie is a manager there. I'm a receptionist as well as a stylist for the shop, making sure that it looks spic and span and that the displays look eye-catching. In the clinic, they do beautiful beauty bags, train cases, mirrors & more! Instead of getting cold hard cash, I took a shine to one particular item...

What do you think is in this ice white bag?

A super cute make-up storage bag! It's by a range called Truly Scrumptious. The girly cupcakes and light pink background just scream 'me'! 

I'm not sure if you're going to be able to tell, but the sugar paper inside says 'Danielle' on it, and that's my name. Therefore, this was meant to be! :P The company who supplies the clinic with goodies is actually called 'Danielle'. Haha, love it!

I just think it's so cute :)

I wore my leopard cardigan that I included in a previous post with a black vest top and black skirt :)


So overall, my 'first day at work' was pretty sweet :)

Ciao lovelies <3

Tenerife 2011!

Urm, guess who's back!?

Yeah, me. Unfortunately, I'd of happily stayed another...70 years? Haha. Tenerife is seriously the place to be if you want some utter relaxation, beautiful weather and crazy sites that you'll never forget! I've been going to Tenerife for 10 years now, and every time has been different. This holiday was absolutely amazing and I wouldn't have done a single thing different...apart from book it a week later! I'll delve deeper into that...

So 2 years ago, I had the best holiday of my life and met some amazing guys and their family. Me and one of the son's had a thing two years ago, but it ended really before it even began. The 9th of August 2011 was the first time we'd seen each other since the 18th of August 2009, and it was magic. He was with his cousin, auntie and uncle as well this year, and me and his cousin have actually become best friends. Me and my 'old flame' reconnected. In the words of Lady Gaga, 'yeah there's something about, baby you & I.' That's true for me and him. There's just something about it. I don't know what, but it's nice :)

ANYWAYS! Here are some pics from my holiday. I'll tell you where I got my outfits from and my mum's if I can remember :) Underneath every picture I will also do like a little diary entry thing.

Day 1- ok, so this is one of the angles of the view from our hotel room. We were originally put on the 7th floor, but we didn't like the room. So I battered my eyelashes and worked my wonderful charm on some man at the check in and as if by magic, we were moved into a hugely bigger room on the 10th floor! So the moral of the story is; always ask. Hey, it's worth a try!

This is the first night- ahhhh wow! To be honest, I don't think I've tanned very much. But this picture makes me look very pale- so I'm very tanned to what I was! My top is from Topshop agesss ago, and my shorts are from Miss Selfridges. I can only remember where my mum's top is from, and it's from Primark. This night was the night where I came across a very attractive waiter! I didn't see him very much after that, but he seemed a bit morngey because he didn't smile very much! 

Night 2- Nothing very exciting happened this night. We decided to take a taxi to the other end of Tenerife to look at some shops which included Zara and Mango. Not very much were in them though! Fishing through my clothes, I noticed that I'd forgotten a black cami like this white one, so I couldn't wear some of my skirts that I brought because they needed black :( Non of the shops we went in had any in either. Ah, never mind :) My top is from New Look and my skirt is from Topshop. The light doesn't do it any justice, it's more of a very light lilac colour :) My mums top is from Next. 

Night 3- A kind waiter took this photo for us :) The staff were soooo lovely! We've stayed in this hotel before (Bourganville Playa, Costa Adeje) and we noticed a definite change in the attitude of the staff. I had a hair malfunction this evening so I put a bit of it up at the side. My top is from Lipsy, and you can't really see my shorts(hehehe) but they're from Topshop. Also, my shoes are from Debenhams in the beachwear collection. 

Night 4- this is one of my fave photos of me. Blue is such a good colour on me, so I do tend to wear it a lot because I like to look good(sorry, but it's true!). I love the cut of this Topshop top, and it covers the top of my highwaisted Miss Selfridges shorts, so I'm not showing too much skin. I had a really good hair night too, so that put me in a great mood to smile for this photo! :P

This is the bracelet on my wrist close up. It is my most favourite bracelet ever, I love it so so much! It's a beautiful baby pink colour with lovely girly roses. It's from River Island, but I got it wayyy back last year, but they do do dupes in Primark still. However, it's sometimes nice to pay that little bit more for greater quality. The string holding it has not loosened. 


Whilst I'm on the topic of jewellery, I bought this gorgeous shell ring and a beautiful Hawiian inspired bracelet from some little shops in Tenerife. So girly, so me!

Night 5- hmmm, I don't remember much from this night. No, I mean I really don't. Haha. My playsuit is from Ark and my mum's dress is from Next.



Ohhh, it's coming back to me! We went down to the other end of Tenerife again to look around, and I changed into my Lipsy top and Miss Selfridges shorts because the playsuit I had on makes me feel fat :P  Look at all that Hello Kitty! Once I saw the shop, I just had to have a picture in front of it :P

I saw this cardigan in Tenerife but it was a lot of euro's so my mum wouldn't let me have it. Who would have thought that yesterday less than 40 miles away from me, the same cardigan would be hanging there in a shopping centre waiting for me!? Deffo meant to be!

Night 7- hmm, I have no idea where Night 6 went. There was one night that we forgot the camera, so we couldn't take pictures. Maybe that was night 6... Anyways. This night was the night that I saw my friends for the first time in 2 years. It was so cute. He was texting me that he was in the hotel bar, so I came down to see them and it was so magical :) I love the colour of this top i'm wearing. I got it in Tenerife but it's from Bershka. I'm sure that's a shop in the UK too.. and how gorgeous is my mum's dress!? It's from Quiz.



Night 8- aww, I love these photos sooo much. They've deffo my faves. i think me and my mum look positively glowing in them. So pretty and healthy. This night was the first night that I saw the families at dinner. My friend looked at me with a huge smile on his face. That's when I knew that I really did look good that night. This Ark leopard playsuit is so 'me'. If I could only wear one thing for the rest of my life, this would be it. I believe that every time I wear this outfit, I look good. Sorry for the bigheadedness, but it's true. I really love this playsuit. My mum's beautiful cobolt blue dress is from New Look.


Night 12- (yes, I know i've jumped a lot of nights. But I wasn't in many of the pictures because I had forgotten HEAPS of clothes and had to wear some of my outfits twice, so I didn't wanna be in any pictures :P). I believe I looked good this night too :) I look like a little barbie doll! My beautiful pink dress is from Topshop. I have it in white as well, but i had a little malfunction! It was so white, that you could see my bra and knickers! Note to self when wearing the dress next time: thong! My mum's dress is from Next.


The last full day- aww, sad times. This is me and my mum chilling by the pool. I couldn't touch the bottom of the deep end(boo!) which my friends took advantage of and ducked me under A LOT. Haha, it was fun though. Had some very fun times in that pool and interesting convo's with my friend's cousin. I love that girl to death and she has really become one of my closest friends. Unfortunately, me being the dumbass that I am, forgot to take photos of me, her and her cousin! She did take some though, but it was through the day when I looked rough cos I had no make up on! Ah well, they're memories, right? :)

The lasy night- this playsuit is from Lipsy and really reminds me of Pixie Lott. It's such a comfy thing to wear and I love it a lot. My mum's BEAUTIFUL dress is from Kurt Muller. It's so gorgeous with all the different leopards in it. Me and my mum are leopard girls through and through!

I'm so cute. On the last night, my mum had some poppyseed bread with her soup, and the little poppyseeds were left behind. Whilst on holiday, one of the waiter's seemed to take a shine to me. Smiling at me, saying 'Hola' to me whenever he saw me, looking at me out of the corner of his eye and waving at me. So in return, I made him a little heart out of poppyseeds :P He gave me two truffles on my last night, which was adorable. I'll never forget him :)

'All good things must come to an end.'
That saying is well true. We took this picture on the last night in Tenerife. The lights are beautiful, the resort is beautiful, the weather is beautiful: Tenerife is beautiful. I loved my holiday and I would love to go back and do it all again. Please enjoy some more pictures of some of the sites I saw.
