Tasted great, my younger brother helped too and really enjoyed it. We have a bread machine but we didn't use it and I think it tasted better without using it. I will continue to make my own bread every once in awhile.

I have seen quite a few beaches and the most outstanding I've seen so far are the beaches in Sarasota Florida with its far stretching white sands and Myrtos beach with its crystal blue sea and secluded locations used in movie sets. It is...

I could notice the improvement almost immediately. Only 4 steps morning and night. I exfoliate once a week.

The soundtrack that makes the game. 

 I got a squier fender strat for Chirstmas and have found that because of the bands I like that the electric is more suited for the majority of songs. Now I can do power chords, bar chords more bending and neck work. Practicing every day...

 The greatest dance troop to ever be- seeing them live and how long they could dance non-stop for was impressive. Perri's hair remained the centre of focus throughout.

 'Nothing else matters' is my favourite song to play on guitar.

 Prom was a great excuse to go in a limo with my friends. Luckily it was quite a long journey so we got to enjoy the comforts of the limo and its loud music for quite awhile with drinks in hand.

 Got my ukulele as a birthday present from a friend. Playing guitar made it a lot easier to learn- always something I have wanted to do,

I read way over 200 books and the ones I could recall I tracked around 150 with a 'goodreads shelf': https://www.goodreads.co...

I am not a morning person but with the stress of exam revision yoga and meditation at 5.30am and sometimes 6.00am during the week did wonders to clear my head, keep me healthy and breathe. As a result I got all As and A* in my GCSEs so I...

 I have completed the: 'f you play piano you must play Mozart' stereotype.

 Knock Knock    Who's There?     You Know!        You Know Who?            Exactly. 

 My streetdance teacher is also a Zumba instructor so when not many people turned up to class we asked to do a class of Zumba instead. I see the appeal, it was hilarious, very fun and a good way to loose weight. 

 And the person was surprised but gave a good bear hug.

Took a couple of years but I learnt and own a skateboard. I love it but I only can do the very basics still and am not very good. But it was fun hobby.

 Upon showing my American cousins around London I got tickets in the summer to go on a palace tour. Even more impressive on the inside, got to see Kate's dress and some of the secret doors in the walls.

 More difficult than it looks considering learning different embroidery styles for the cushions decoration. Proud of myself that I managed it but had to work very hard as it was not a natural skill.

I worked 50 hours at the wildlife rescue working with primarily birds whereas tortoises needed less care. It was hard work where mostly I was cleaning poo which was bad at first but I thought nothing of it to the end as it was necessary,...

 The most beautiful of pieces, most recognisable and a crowd favorite. 

Longest time spent unplugged: almost 8 months I was going for a year but I wanted to wish my friend a happy birthday and I didn't have her phone number or the possiblity to see her for a long time. Though after this for the rest of the ...

 My go-to piece to play on piano. This one I have mastered.

 I used to be scared of heights so I would refuse to go on rollercoasters or too near the edge of anything. I believe my fear was a logical one but I don't want it restricting my daredevil spirit. So I pushed myself to go on rollercoaste...

 Me and two friends formed a girl group. Was a lot of fun and did perform to small crowds and be played by the school's radio. Though one of the girls had to go back to China so it only lasted a year but still counts for my bucket list.

 Went to the London Olympic park to watch Paralympics athletics extremely impressive what people with disabilities can do as exciting as the Olympics itself. First time going to a stadium that big.

 Watched Andy Murray represent Britain in the 2012 London Olympics at Wimbledon. Great to see him win the match and how different the day felt to a normal day at Wimbledon.

 I used to be sacred of heights but when I did cliff diving it had cured my phobia. Doing abseiling has proved that my fear is not existent and that I can go on to greater heights.

Capital of Massachusetts. Learning all about the Boston Teaparty historic political protest, visiting museams on the civil war and boarding ships. Eating the largest slice of pizza and surving the most bumpy subway ever. Would happily li...

Took two separate and expensive trips but was worth it.

The Big Apple. Stayed in Double Tree in Times Square. Right in the centre of everything, sirens in the night a real experience of the city.

The views. The views. The views. What is there more to say?

As I am a beginner I learnt the most basic techniques to create my bowl: primarily coiling then smoothing the layers out and pinching them into shape using a variety of tools. I painted my bowl and then glazed it for finishing.  Enjoyed ...

 With my 'Young Enterprise' company I called Just Because agreed with by my 14 colleagues we decided that home-made scented candles in recycled jars would be both a good and profitable-enough product. Round my house we made the candles- ...

 Hours well spent. (Pokemon Diamond)

Ski Trip in Austria. Though a beginner I learnt fast and in no time was doing black slopes and sung and yodeled down them as I went. Amazing time I will go skiing again someday.

 A lot easier than I imagined. Though it got dark and misty when reaching high altitude as we started the climb a bit late in the day. Still managed to get to the top and then two days later climbed another one in the Lake District. I wa...

I reached semifinals in a tennis club tournament which I am proud of but the stress of doing the matches made me realise that I want to do tennis for fun not seriously. Though I am happy I gave it my all. 

 Joined a book club at school with my friend, partly for the free food but also cause we both wanted more book suggestions. I became very involved and went to the hampshire book awards to vote and discuss books and authors with the commu...

 Took a long time to set up the telescope as we all were amateurs but we gazed at mars and the moon and drunk hot chocolate. A really cute night.

Best Thrill Seeking Experience Ever. 

Think staying over night in a castle is amazing enough? Staying a week in a castle with a theme park, a swimming pool, complimentary scones and cream all included just out the window is even better.

Me, my younger brother and my aunt took up this project. It turned out to be massive and thoroughly decorated. We really felt really Christmassy and ended up eating it for over a week sick of sugar afterwards,

 Capitol. Smithsonian. Monument, Looking on to the White House. Very hot during the summer but air-con at its highest setting where ever we went. History lessons everywhere.

Saw Avril Lavigne and the Jonas Brothers with my American cousins in North Carolina.

 After visiting my american cousins my family spent a few sweltering hot but enjoyable days here.

 Learnt to surf in Wales with friends. Good time and a lot of laughs when we fell off yet I managed to stand on the board alright so I am happy. Though the water was freezing so next time I surf I'll make sure to do it somewhere warm!
