Hi guys
I've recently really got into crochet again. I used to be able to do a bit quite a long while ago but then lost interest. Then last year I started knitting and this year I've taken up crochet again.

Work Work Work
Hi guys!
I do apologise for the lack of posts recently! I've been off on work experience all week and I've been pretty tired so haven't had much of a chane to blog. I also have a ton of homework due for the start of this week, none of which I've started yet!!!
So I am currently sat on my bed with pancakes and tea with a mass of books and papers sprawled around me. I'm also in a creative mood and I want to start designing dresses but I have no time. The worst part is I know that the creativeness will go away and I'll not be able to design the dresses until I'm feeling all creative again. Oh well.
I'm sorry this is super short but I really need to do all this homework. I'll take a break later on to post again though!
Hope you're all having a lovely Sunday!

Back Into Blogging
Hi there!
I mentioned in my last post how long it's been since I last posted. It's been quite a while and I've got a lot on my mind so I decided to get back into blogging again.
To be honest I'm not really sure what I'll be writing about, whatever I'm inspired by at the time, I guess.
When I get the chance I'll be putting up a few nail art tutorial things and maybe a few hair tutorials and bits and pieces too. I'll put some recipes up to, I've been told I make good cupcakes so hopefully you'll like my recipes!
If you come across any pictures of nail art or hairstyles that you'd like a tutorial made for then feel free to send me an email to thelittleghost@hotmail.co.uk

I've Returned!
Hello there!
Oh my gosh I am so sorry for the lack of posts since...... June 2013?! Oh dear....
I should probably give you a little update of what has happened in the past 8 months.

Good Times and Bad Times
Hello there everyone!
I really do apologise for not blogging in a month! But I have been rather busy with GCSEs and, as the title suggests, there's been some not so good stuff happening recently.
The bad things first I think, I like to end on a high note.
Firstly, exams: yuck, no one likes them. To anyone who still has exams going on, good luck! You have nothing to worry about though, you'll do great! c:
Secondly, sadly, my puppy died a little over a week ago. He was only 5 and a half months old.
He'd been coughing and everyone thought it was kennel cough so the vet prescribed medication and he seemed to ge better for a while but then got worse again. When it still wasn't clearing up after 3 weeks (it can take up to 6 weeks to clear up completely but Ghost wasn't improving at all really) the vet decided to keep him in to do blood tests and X-ray his lungs. They still didn't know what was wrong. Then they decided to X-ray his stomach and also did a barium meal test and ultrasounds and things. They then saw that he had a growth pushing his stomach up out of place and without going into the whole explanation, this was causing the cough. The only thing that the vet could do was operate. So two Fridays ago (the 15th), she operated. When she opened him up she found that he had tumors all through his intestines and around his stomach. It was cancer and there wasn't anything that anyone could have done. So we all knew the kindest thing was to just put him to sleep. At least he was never in pain and he never suffered.
I don't want to dwell on sadness so on to happier things I think.
My last exam was yesterday! Yay! I'm so glad that they're done! I can officially relax and enjoy summer now. If it ever stops raining!
Also, I might be starting a little online store this Autumn/Winter, selling dreamcatchers, maybe some jewellery/accessories and things which I will make. I'm going to be busy making things all summer for a charity event that my mum is going to host to raise money for cancer reasearch/aid/support so I'll see how well that goes first.
Oh and we've decided to go and see some puppies next week so we might have another puppy about mid to late July which I'm excited about because I'd like to be able to give another dog a good home and a happy life like Ghost had, even though he was only with us for 4 months.
So would any of you guys be interested in buying handmade dreamcatchers/jewellery? And do you have any suggestions for other things that I could make?

Suggestions?
Hi there,
I just thought I would pose a question to you all. Is there anything you would really like to see/see more of on the blog?
Now, I'll just make it clear that I won't be able to do everything that everyone asks me, I'm not going to change my blog to try to suit everyone. It is my blog after all, and I could never please everyone. But I would like to hear your comments and suggestions and I'll certainly take them all into account.
So what would you like to see? Makeup reviews/outfit posts/hair 'how-to's/shoes/something else?
All suggestions are welcome! I can't wait to hear from you.

Readers? Hello?
Hello there,
I just wanted to do a quick little post, without sounding rude, to ask if there's anyone reading this?
Yes the stats show that the blog gets views, but is there anyone who actually reads my posts instead of just skipping along to the next blog that might appear?
The reason I ask is this: none of you ever talk to me. I'd love to hear your thoughts on any of my posts, but I rarely get any feedback from anyone!
So if you wouldn't mind, could you please take a moment to leave me a little comment, even if all you say is 'hi'? I'd really appreciate it.
Thank you, lovely readers.

The Lady Detective
I finally got my first chapter finished and posted on Wattpad! I'm so excited! The first post is just a quick little author's note, then the second post is the first chapter. Click here if you'd like to take a look.
It'd really mean a lot to me if you could have a quick little read, it's not too long, I promise. And if you could possibly leave me a comment, either on here or on Wattpad, telling me what you think of it then that would be brilliant. Thank you!

English Exam Today!
Hi
I've sort of decided that I'm going to do more shorter posts about anything that has happened during my day/week and post much more often. Plus, I'm on my laptop more now to write my story/check my school email/look up revision resources/etc.
Well today I had my English literature unit 1 exam, a study of prose. My class has studied 'To Kill A Mockingbird' so that's what my essay was on. I won't go into details as I'm pretty sure we probably aren't allowed to do that. Maybe we are, who knows. But I won't bore you with details about it anyways. All I will say is that once I got into it, I was quite happy with the question and content with my completed essay. The extract for the question I chose (we could pick a or b) was very helpful in getting me started on thinking of an answer. Especially as I couldn't think of much that I could've said for the non-extract question!
Well I'm glad that it's done, my next English exam is on Thursday, 'Juno and the Paycock' and poetry. I have Additional Maths exams tomorrow and Friday too. At least I don't have to get up early to get ready to go to school until the start of June as the rest of my exams this week start at 1:30pm and then next week I don't have any at all. Yay!
In other news, I'm well into the first chapter of my book for Wattpad and should be posting it later this evening hopefully! I better go and get writing, I have a past paper to do as revision for my exam tomorrow as well. Wish me luck! And to anyone doing exams now or soon, good luck with them!!!

Hello Dear Readers!
Hello there,
Just a quick little update to let you know what's going on in my life, if you would like to know.
I've done my first 2 GCSEs, French listening and R.E. They both went alright so not a bad start. 1 week down, 5 to go, eugh. But at least next week (the week starting 27th) I have no exams at all. Yay! The Tuesday and Wednesday I'll be going to the caravan with my parents and boyfriend so if the weather is warm, like it should be in May, I shall be spending those days on the beach in a swim suit tanning (don't worry, I won't forget my sun cream!)
I mentioned how the weather SHOULD be in May. Northern Ireland apparently has other plans. It has spent the wholw month raining. I think raining might be an understatement. It's been raining so much that people have been making jokes about building arcs. My back garden is mostly flooded (although it holds water anyway. Crappy draining out there for some reason), I feel sorry for my dog when he's out there. He seems to love it though, but he always ends up filthy.
Also, I got Wattpad. My username on it is LittleGhostFreak if you want to know. I'm planning on starting writing something loosely based on the BBC's Sherlock and Elementary (the U.S. version). Yes, in the middle of my GCSEs. I know that's a bit of a silly idea but oh well. It'll just be slow moving for now so you shall have to bare with me as updates will be slow. When I put up the first chapter I shall write here and let you know so you can go and have a look if you'd like.
To any of my readers who are currently taking GCSEs, A levels or uni exams, good luck!
And with that I shall end this post here.
