Get to know me! - TAG Thursday

Hey beauts!

I thought I would let you get to know me better to start things off! Now there are a bunch of different 'tags' out there on the world wide web, so I closed my eyes and picked one and this was the result!

1) How do you prnounce your blog name?
Just how it's written, Elephant Stories and more.
I named it this because elephants are my favourite animal and I am an elephant. This blog will be all about my stories in life and more! Thought, opinions, etc, etc...

2) How old are you?
I am 20! I was born 15th February 1993! So a day after Valentines day! I never needed to cry for being lonely because the next day would be awesome!

3) What Nationality are you?
I am British & a quarter Irish.

4) What grade year are you in?
In Britain it is called year not grade! Haha, silly languages! I'm technically in year 16, I think! Which is my third and final year at University.

5) Do you have a job?
I do and I don't. It's a job where I work roughly February-October and then I'm jobless and have to apply for the job back. I absolutely love my job, working on the rides and recommend it highly. It's very social! I work at the theme park, Alton Towers! Such a fun job!

6) What is your eye colour?
My eye colour is blue!

7) What is your natural hair colour?
When I was younger it was blonde like in this image and slowly as I've grown up it's gone more of a mousy brown shade.

8) What type of skin do you have?
Normal to combination. My T-zone can never make up it's mind on whether it wants to be oily, normal or dry.

9) Do you have freckles?
I always say no to this question, but they randomly appear every summer without me knowing and disappear again in the winter months!

10) Do you/did you have braces?
Yep, for a whole 18 months. Painful they are.

11) What is your favourite perfume to wear?
Lovely by Sarah Jessica-Parker
Cherish by Ghost
Juicy Coture by Juicy Coture
Turquatic by MAC
Wonderstruck by Taylor Swift
Wonderstruck Enchanted by Taylor Swift

I absolutely LOVE perfumes. These are a few of my favourites as I really can't just pick one >.<

12) How long does it take you to get ready in the morning? 
That depends on what I'm doing! Anywhere from 5minutes+

5 minutes if I shower the night before and get everything ready the night before
15 minutes if I'm doing minimal make-up and got things ready the night before + snooze alarm once
1 hour if I need to shower
1 hour 30 minutes if I need to shower, do make-up and get things ready

13) Whats your favourite colour?
Aqua/Turquoise/Blue

14) Heels or Flats?
Flats, Flats, Flats with the occasional heel on a night out. I'm already 5ft9 so I wear heels when towering above everyone else seems fun!

15) Gold or Silver
White gold / silver

16) Do you have a boyfriend?
Yep, I do and I love him to bits! We've been together 3 years come April 4th 2014.

17) Do you have any siblings?
A brother named Peter, he's a year younger than me.

18) Do you have any pets? 
Yeah! The cutest dog ever! He's a mongrel, but we love him.
Here is Spence!

19) Have you ever been out of the country?
I've been to a few places,
America, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Majorca & a couple others. Travelling is fuuuuuuuuuuuuun!

20) What is something that makes you nervous?
I really hate being in crowded places. I'm also really nervous about losing the person/people I'm with in busy areas too.

So now you know me better, let me get to know you better! I tag you! Once you're done, write your blog name/link/thing down in the comments and I'll come and check your blog out! :)

A start to start all starts!

Hello 2014, my names Ellie and this is my blog! 

At this time I don't exactly know where this journey will take me but I do know one thing and that is that it will be fun. My one and only new year resolution is to have fun! If something is getting me down, making be cry or upsetting me, I will forget about it, do something that makes me happy and just be happy! 

Now when I said I only had one new year resolution I kind of lied. It has little sub categories like all the little individual fishes in a school of fish. I love to travel and this year I want to travel more be it in Britain or Europe. It's just fun to travel, explore new places and discover it's little treasures so that's that! Secondly, I would quite like to enjoy running. The thought of running right now just brings with it the idea that everyone will look at me a think 'gosh that fat chick shouldn't be running' but I'm trying not to let what others think invade my life, which bring us to number three, not to let what others think ruin what I want and enjoy to do. It's my life and if I continue to let what others think of me get me down, It won't be much fun. Fourthly, I'd like to read more. I've completely neglected reading the past two years and I miss the adventures books used to take me on and the creations and images they would create in this little brain of mine, and finally, I'd like life to be a little more organised, clean and tidy. As much of a mess my life is, if my bedroom floor is too messy for too long I will freak out, scream, shout and panic until it's cleaned up. So no more shouting from me please!

There you have it, my one new year resolution! 


Have an absolutely amazing 2014 beauts and make it one to remember! 

Be
happy, Be beautiful and Be YOU!
Ellie, xx
