Each year I get a new planner, this year I got my planner from Kikki K. I was loooking on their website and saw a few I liked so went into their store to have a look, when I saw the ones I had looked at online I wasn't in love with them and the way they were set out they were too small, weren't set out the way I needed, they were either monthly or weekly and the daily set out gave you very little room to write. However I saw the personal planner and I fell in love with it. It doesn't give you much room to write but it has notes on the side and has many sections so it gives me lots of other space to write and take notes.
It is large and I probably wont take it everywhere with me but I have a small calender diary that i take every where with me so I didnt mind the size. It's great because Kikki K do refills so I can use it over and over again.
The small Calender diary I have is a Thomas Sabo (Jewellery brand) and it's great because it is set out in a daily format and gives room to write, it is small and compact so I can take it everywhere with me.
Getting organised is a big priority for me because I can become unorganised, not on top of things and end up leaving things to the last minute or forgetting things. Having a planner really helps me keep track of things and helps me stay on top of whats going on. I deffinitley recommend getting a planner especially if you are unorganised, they aren't going to be the magic solution to your problems, they aren't going to suddenly help you become organised so you can't think of them like that. Planners can help but in the end its up to you to check, note and use your planner.
Planners are great because you can personalise them to your fancy and there are so manly out there so you can find the perfect one for you.
I'm planning on uploading a post on how I have decorated mine in the next few days so keep a look out for that.
Note:
My planner cost around $80 but you can so many that are alot cheaper. I dont usually spend so much on a planner but for me it was a great investment because firstly I loved it and secondly I will continue to use it by purchusing the refills. :)

Daily Life and All That
....... So it's holiday's now yay!!!!
I've been really busy recently, I have been working full days from 8am - 6pm so I've been really tired and haven't gotten around to writing a new post. ..... I'm sorry, i know it always happens and i always say I will start uploading frequently and then I never do, so I'm sorry about that I just get so busy sometimes. So I'm not going to say that anymore, I just will be trying my best to upload as often as I can.
Anyways I hope you all had a fantastic christmas and a Happy New Year! I know I did, i enjoyed seeing all my family and I got some pretty good presents... I was very lucky.
I would love to hear what you did this christmas and what your favourite thing about it was, what presents you got and all of that, feel free to comment below or talk to me on my google+ page, or twitter page. I would also love to hear what you did for New Years!
An Update On My Life:
It's now summer so I have spent a lot of my time down at the beach, I went and saw 'The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies' and 'The Water Diviner' (Both amazing movies and are a must see!!).
On New Years Day I went down to the beach with a friend which we were then meant to have lunch after at this nearby cafe but I managed to get caught in a bunch of oysters and cut myself up pretty bad so my mum had to come get me, bandage me up at home but I still then went to her house after and we made this healthy fruit/berry sorbet which tasted amazing and then we spent the day relaxing so I still got to see her.
On Sunday I am heading to the Wet'n'Wild in Sydney with one of my friends. The days I'm not working have been spen relaxing and me attempting to build my bike (which I managed to eventually).
I've been shopping and I bought my new 2015 planner which I'm absolutley in love with, and bought my friends christmas present.. woops! better late than never though.
So that's what I've been up to recently and I'd love to hear what you've been up to recently and if there are any movies you have seen recently and what you thought of them.

Review- Dr Wheatgrass
Recently I was sent 3 samples from Dr Wheatgrass, I recieved 2 sachets of the Antioxidant-Rich SuperBalm Multi Purpose Soother and 1 sachet of the Skin Recovery Cream.
I had read the claims and read about the brand and I was skeptical about it, but I was willing to give it a try though.
Recently I had horrible skin, it was extreamly dry, flaky (almost scaley) and felt hard and rough and kind of leathery, not matter what I used it didn't do anything or made it worse. At that point I was willing to try anything...
I used the skin recovery cream first and used it with my palmers skin perfecting oil and noticed a change in my skin almost immediatly. I used this before I went to bed and noticed my skin felt smoother but when I woke up i noticed it had really helped hydrate my skin.
That was a week ago I recieved the samples, now my skin isn't dry anymore other than a few little patches there is barely-no pigmentation problems that I was having along side the dryness. I feel that the cream has absolutley helped rehydrate and improve my skin and would absolutley recommend this product to anyone. I will be most likely purchusing this product. (RRP full size 85mL= $29.50)
The mult-purpose soother is great for many different uses, my mum and I both tried a satchet each. While away in QLD my mum had gotten burnt so she used this product to help sooth her sunburn and she said it worked great, I personally get very sore muscles in my knees and shoulders so I used this product for that I noticed that it soothed and helped relieve the pain in my muscles and tissue. I used this product by massaging into the skin and found it has helped relieve the pain and actually help stop the muscle soreness and problems. (RRP full size 145mL=$39.50)
Overall I love this brand and will deffinatly be purchusing and looking into some of their other products, this brand really helps and actually works and is well worth the price on the products especially as you dont need much of their products so they would last a long time. This brand provides natural, fragrence and gluten free products that are also against animal testing. I would suggest heading over to their website and having a look for yourself.

Life Update
Hello Everyone!......
I know I have been away and haven't been posting last week I had my exam so I have been studying for them but also recently I went away to QLD. I wish i took heaps of photos and did a daily post for that but I was only there Friday night to Sunday night and I was away with family i have a few photos but not many but I will most likely be going up again this holidays so I will definitely take lots of pictures and post daily posts for that.
I have also decided to postpone the fitness posts/series (just for the moment though just because I want to catch up with those and have them written out and recently I haven't been doing that much exercise or healthy eating so I feel as though that would effect the quality as I would just be making stuff up.
..... But I will be doing a Life update post every Saturday/Sunday on what's happened during the week and any notes or things I need to tell you.
I have products that need reviewing so look out for those, I will be uploading makeup tutorials, and doing some routines (both new and updated).
I will be uploading a review tomorrow and with then be starting the life updates from next week.
If you want to talk to me, or suggest any posts you would like to see, feel free to leave a comment or if you scroll down to the bottom of the page a link to my google+ page will be there and at the top on the right hand side you will see icons and they will link you and send you straight through to my instagram, pinterest, gmail and twitter.

Morning Routine
My Morning Routine.
I don't do athing to exciting fo rm morning routine, and it doesnt really change that much on the weekends, obviously with school weekdays i have to be alot quicker with things so I've been trying to wake up earlier which I will state in the post, I will list all the products I use at the end.
So here is my morning routine.
Firstly I will wake up depending on weekends or school days will depend on the time I get up,
School Day: first alarm: 5:30am
second alarm: 6:00am
Yes 5:30 is very early but if I don't wake up at 5:30 then I won't get up to do an excersise.
Weekend: I dont really have an alarm I will naturally wake up at around 9:00am - 10:00am at the latest.
I will then get up and do a quick excersise usually consisting of jumping jacks/star jumps, push ups, planks, squats, burpees, skipping jump without the rope. Sometimes I will go for a run but I personally prefer evening runs, or I will run up and down the steps of my unit but I also don't really do that often as I don't want to wake people up.
After my work-out I will usually have a shower, and quickly wash myself just to freshen up so probably only like 5-10 minutes.
I will get out and wash my face, apply toner and then moisturise.
leaving my face bare and not putting on makeup I then will get dressed and throw my hair in a messy bun just to get it out of the way.
~
I will make my breakfast, this usually consists of some vegimite toast, oats with fruit in milk, and I'll have a granola bar or an uncle toby's yoghurt topps apricot bars (yum!).
~
Depending on what day it is will then decide what I do next if it's a school day I will pack my bag and lunch or if it's a weekend I'll just read a book of catch up on some tv shows, or some days I will work so I'll plan what I'm going to do for the day if it's a weekend.
~
So thats all that's in my morning routine really, it's really about finding the motivation to get up that early in the morning to do excersise. The first week I tried getting up early I snoozed every single alarm... So I know how you feel people that like your sleep, even now I still snooze the alarms I'm so tired.
So thats all for my morning routine would you guys like to see a night routine?
Products I use:
- 'Simple' cleansing face wash.
- 'Neutrogena' oil free moisturiser
- 'Simple' toner
