I have low persistence and high procrastination so it is absolutely amazing that I have made and maintained this blog! I have had blogs on blogger, livejournal, deadjournal (if anyone remembers that), Yahoo! Groups, my own websites and forums and at most I last a couple of months before I’m bored or distracted by something else…like a butterfly or a shiny penny!:P
I think the reason I am still blogging here is because I actually enjoy it and the people are lovely! :)
I am quite dyslexic and I have issues with writing. It takes me a couple of hours to write a post and I often read it back and think ‘What is wrong with my brain! I didn’t write that nonsense!’. But blogging seems to have improved my writing skills a little, just by writing more regularly than I would normally. The practice seems to be doing some good to my shrivelled brain! So I will definitely try to keep my blog going until I run out of random nonsense to drivel on about :)
I felt like giving something back to you lovely people and I’ve been saving up odd bargains and things that have caught my eye so I can give them away on here. It’s nothing crazy, just things I’ve seen in sales and picked up.
So here is a giveaway to just say thank you for being so wonderful and nice to me!
The giveaway consists of these goodies!
elf – Corrective concealer kit and Twinkle polish
Accessorize - Nail polishes in Superstar, Magical Mocha and Tulle Pink
Eyeko – Bronzer (Rio), Fat Balm (Minty) and London Lips lipgloss (Primrose Hill)
No7 – High Shine lipgloss (Smile)
Soap & Glory – Clean On Me shower gel and Hand Food hand cream.
The rules
1. To enter you must be a follower.
2. Leave a comment below with your email address and tell me what you are looking forward to this year!? (I’m nosy :P)
3. For extra entries mention this giveaway on your blog or twitter. Leave me a link in your comment and/or mention on twitter (@Gemx).
4. The giveaway is international.
4. It will end on 11:59 pm on 14th February <3 (awww!).
5. The winner will be picked at random via a random number generator and notified via email on 15th February. If there is no reply to this email after 3 days I will pick another random winner.
6. I will then send out a well packed box of goodies! :)
If I’m not already following your blog let me know and put a link in the comment. I love finding new blogs to follow :)
Thanks everyone! xxxx
